Releases: metalama/Metalama.Vsx.Public
Release list
v2026.1.5
PostSharp and Metalama VSX 2026.1.5 is based on 2026.1.4, plus the following changes.
The main change in this release is the adoption of the new Metalama 2026.1 release, whose focus is telemetry, privacy and security. In line with that focus, the Visual Studio Tools migrate telemetry to a context-scoped model, tighten data minimization, harden local file handling, and replace legacy parsers and serializers.
Privacy & telemetry
- #24 Migrated telemetry to the Backstage context-scoped model, honoring repo-scoped opt-out.
- #35 Stopped reporting option feature-usage telemetry.
- #31 The exception scrubber now redacts emails, keys, URLs, IDs and
Exception.Datavalues. - #33 Code-preview source files are no longer left in a predictable
%TEMP%location without cleanup. - #30 Debuggee-supplied exception text is scrubbed and escaped before being sent to telemetry.
Security hardening
- #25 Removed the Learning Hub
content.xmlparsing path that used an XXE-enabledXmlDocument. - #28 Replaced
BinaryFormatterin the debugger IPC serialization. - #29 Hardened the PostSharp-IL XML parsers (
DtdProcessing/XmlResolver). - #32 Clamped the character count from
GetUrlin the symbol sequence-points handler. - #34 The self-extractor no longer writes the VSIX to a predictable relative path before launching it.
- #36 The symbol-file path derived from the MSBuild
TargetPathis now validated.
Other changes
- #27 Removed the Learning Hub and Areas of Interest feature.
- #38 Completed the security-review follow-up covering privacy and local-hardening items.
