WinTUI v2.11.1 Release Notes

Clipboard paste works now. Pasting into the / filter and the s search
overlay — Ctrl+V or right-click in Windows Terminal — never worked in any
prior WinTUI version, and this patch fixes it. Also ships a security fix for
a render-path dependency (GO-2026-5970), the Go 1.26.6 security toolchain,
the first dependabot-mediated dependency refreshes, and the first release
with build-provenance attestations on every artifact.

Fixes

  • Paste into text inputs. The terminal delivers a paste as a bracketed
    paste event, which bubbletea v2 surfaces as its own message type rather
    than a stream of key presses. WinTUI only ever routed key presses to its
    two text inputs, so pastes were silently discarded — the input widgets
    themselves supported pasting all along. Paste is now routed to whichever
    input owns the foreground (search overlay, then the filter), with the same
    precedence as typing: overlays and modals without text inputs swallow the
    paste instead of leaking it to a background input. Multi-line clipboard
    content is sanitized by the input widget, so pasting a stray newline can't
    smuggle in a "press Enter".

Security

  • golang.org/x/text bumped to v0.40.0, fixing
    GO-2026-5970 (infinite loop on
    invalid input in Unicode normalization). govulncheck flagged the vulnerable
    code as reachable through WinTUI's text-rendering path, which draws strings
    sourced from the public winget catalog — a defense-in-depth fix; no known
    exploitation. The tree scans clean after the bump.
  • Built with Go 1.26.6 (2026-08-13 security release). None of its CVEs
    are reachable in WinTUI per govulncheck — the toolchain rides along as
    hygiene.

Dependencies

  • charm.land/bubbles v2.1.1 (patch: internal dependency refresh),
    golang.org/x/sys v0.47.0 (routine), and
    mattn/go-runewidth v0.0.27 — width measurement now matches how modern
    terminals actually render multi-rune graphemes (ZWJ/flag emoji count 2
    cells, spacing combining marks get their own cell), improving column
    alignment for non-Latin package names. All proposed by the repo's monthly
    dependabot config and merged after full CI validation
    (golang.org/x/sync v0.22.0 rides along).
  • Zero new Win32 / COM / syscall surface: the go tool nm
    syscall./windows. symbol set is identical to v2.11.0 — fourth
    consecutive release with an unchanged static surface.

Supply-chain hardening (repo-side)

Since v2.11.0 the repository gained CodeQL analysis (clean first scan),
an OpenSSF Scorecard workflow with published results, a lint gate
(golangci-lint, zero issues), a SECURITY.md with private vulnerability
reporting, SHA-pinned workflow actions, and monthly dependabot. None of this
changes the shipped binary — but starting with this release, artifacts carry
GitHub build-provenance attestations:

  • a wintui_provenance.intoto.jsonl bundle is attached to the release, and
  • any artifact can be verified with
    gh attestation verify <file> --repo kts982/wintui.

Compatibility

  • No breaking changes; settings.json, cache.json, and history.json are
    untouched. No new features, no keybinding changes.

Verification

VirusTotal scans of the published artifacts for v2.11.1 (run 2026-08-16):

Asset SHA256 Detections Report
wintui_2.11.1_windows_amd64.exe (7.6 MB) cef405a07fef… 3/71 VT report
wintui_2.11.1_windows_amd64.zip (2.8 MB) beccfa86d49e… 1/68 VT report
wintui_2.11.1_windows_arm64.exe (7 MB) 6f510b244de8… 1/69 VT report
wintui_2.11.1_windows_arm64.zip (2.5 MB) eb213ce8578d… 0/67 VT report

VirusTotal's Microsoft engine flagged both .exe artifacts (Wacatac.B!ml) at
scan time. Cross-check per the established playbook: live Windows Defender
(MpCmdRun -Scan -ScanType 3, signatures 1.457.187.0) scanned the identical
published bytes and found no threats on either architecture
— the VT hit is a
known configuration artifact of VT's non-production engine settings (same
pattern as v2.9.1, which passed winget-pkgs validation against real Defender).

Build provenance: all four artifacts are attested;
gh attestation verify <file> --repo kts982/wintui succeeds for both .exe
files and both .zip archives.
