Safeer Browser 1.0.132 · Safeer OS 0.4.90 (Safeer Control 2.1.87)

Safeer Browser for Linux 1.0.132 · Safeer OS 0.4.90 (with Safeer Control 2.1.87)

Security release: a hardened web engine, and always our own. Our WebKitGTK, JavaScriptCore and libsoup are now built with the same protections as the distribution packages, and stronger: stack protector, _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3, stack clash protection, Intel CET (IBT and shadow stack), full RELRO with immediate binding and a non-executable stack. Every build checks this for each library and helper process in the .deb and in both Flatpaks, and the build fails if a protection is missing. libxml2 2.15.4 and libxslt 1.1.45 are now built into the engine (checksums verified, their symbols hidden), so a system copy cannot replace them. An installed Safeer refuses to start if WebKit, JavaScriptCore or libsoup would be loaded from anywhere other than our own build.

No AppImage for now. The 1.0.131 AppImage carried the build system's WebKitGTK 2.52.6 and libsoup 3.4.4 instead of our engine. Until an AppImage can carry our engine and our libsoup fix, Safeer is available as .deb and Flatpak only, both with our engine. Existing AppImage users are pointed to the downloads page.

More stable. Programs you open from Safeer OS (menu, »Open with«, files) are no longer the first to be stopped when memory runs out. Helper processes (Safeer DRM, Spotify, screen sharing, conversions) are stopped together with everything they started, so nothing is left running. Closing follows a fixed order with a time limit for each step, and a damaged or unknown setting no longer stops the program: it falls back to the default, and settings are backed up before they are upgraded.

Privacy and developers. History, bookmarks and restored tabs never store a user name or password from an address, and a shortcut tile shows the real site. If a site has no working HTTPS, Safeer remembers this for 30 days and forgets it when you clear history or cookies. For web developers: an automation mode for WebDriver that never touches your profile and shows a visible banner.

Safeer Browser 1.0.131 · Safeer OS 0.4.89 (Safeer Control 2.1.86)

Safeer Browser for Linux 1.0.131 · Safeer OS 0.4.89 (with Safeer Control 2.1.86)

The .deb packages install on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS and Debian 13, and are ready for Linux Mint 23. Until now the Safeer OS and Safeer Browser .deb packages needed library versions that only Ubuntu 24.04 and Linux Mint 22 have (ICU 74, JPEG XL 0.7, libjpeg 8, libxml2), so on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS and Debian 13 the installation stopped with »not installable« (the same would happen on the coming Linux Mint 23, which is based on Ubuntu 26.04). These libraries now come inside the package, next to the web engine that was already built in, so one .deb installs on Linux Mint 22, Ubuntu 24.04 and 26.04 and Debian 13 (checked before every release), and on Linux Mint 23 when it comes out. Debian 12 and older systems are still too old (glibc); use the Flatpak there.

Smarter address bar. A full web address with a space after the site name (for example a link with a token, pasted with a space) now opens as an address instead of being sent to the search engine; ports must be 1–65535; »tel:«, »sms:«, »mailto:« and similar are searched instead of opened as a web page; »0.0.0.0« and scoped IPv6 addresses are searched. An address with a user name and password (»http://admin:password@192.168.0.1/«) opens like in other browsers and is never sent to the search engine, and the bar then shows only the real site, without the user name and password; a local »file:« address opens the file instead of being searched.

Safeer Browser 1.0.130 · Safeer OS 0.4.88 (Safeer Control 2.1.85)

Safeer Browser for Linux 1.0.130 · Safeer OS 0.4.88 (with Safeer Control 2.1.85)

The address bar is also a search box. Until now, typing a word such as »test« into the address bar of Splet or Safeer Browser opened https://test/ and showed »This page can't be opened right now«, and even several words were treated as a web address. Now the address bar works like in other modern browsers: words, sentences, version numbers (»python 3.12«) and file names (»invoice.pdf«) are searched with the search engine you chose, while web addresses (»safeer.si«, »github.com/…«, »https://…«), local addresses (»localhost:8080«, »192.168.0.1«) and IP addresses open directly. Start with »?« to search for something that looks like an address (»?safeer.si«).

Cleaner live results in the magnifier. The first three web results under »Search the web« are now taken only from a fully loaded results page, so you no longer get just one or two of them; Startpage no longer shows its own click-tracking link as a duplicate result; and the note naming the search engine that received what you typed is shown even when the engine returned nothing.

This is a small release with only these fixes; everything else is the same as in 1.0.129.

Safeer Browser 1.0.129 · Safeer OS 0.4.87 (Safeer Control 2.1.84)

Safeer Browser for Linux 1.0.129 · Safeer OS 0.4.87 (with Safeer Control 2.1.84)

Searching the web from the magnifier works again. In 1.0.128, searching the web from the Safeer OS magnifier could open »This page can't be opened right now« instead of the results, most often after Splet had been hidden for a minute. The cause was ours: to save memory, Safeer stopped WebKit's network process while web pages that were kept ready for new tabs still depended on it, so the next page failed. With our patched libsoup (which no longer leaks memory) the network process now keeps running. Splet and Safeer Browser also retry an interrupted page by themselves (twice, after 0.4 and 1.5 seconds) before showing an error, and the error page now names the cause. Only ordinary page loads (GET) are retried – a form you submitted (login, payment, order) is never sent again, also when the page contains frames. A connection that broke after the request may already have been sent is retried only on search engine result pages. Known limitation: the AppImage still carries the system's libsoup, so in a very long session its network process can grow in memory; Safeer no longer stops it (that is what broke the search). The AppImage gets our libsoup in the next release.

Results while you type. The magnifier now shows the first three results of your search engine while you type the third letter onwards, right under »Search the web«, next to your programs and files – click one to open it in Splet. The results are read in a hidden Splet page with your own settings and the same Shield protection as your tabs (ad and tracker filters, Global Privacy Control), so nothing new is installed and no other service is asked. A short note under »Search the web« names the search engine that received what you typed. Folder paths and file names (with an extension) you search for on your computer are not sent. If you prefer that your search engine sees the query only after you press Enter, turn off Live web results while typing under Customise desktop.

One file per download. Our WebKit is now built into every .deb: Safeer Browser, the Safeer OS desktop environment and the new Safeer OS app (Safeer OS in a window, without changing your Cinnamon desktop) are each one file you install with a double click. The separate safeer-webkit package from 1.0.128 is replaced automatically; programs share one copy of WebKit on disk. The desktop environment and the app replace each other, so you never have two Safeer OS or two Safeer Control on one computer.

Safeer Shield keeps working when the desktop doesn't. The Shield now runs in its own process under the supervisor, which holds its network ports: if Safeer OS freezes or crashes, ads stay blocked (on the test PC a frozen Safeer OS used to stop the Shield for about 22 seconds). A frozen desktop is replaced in 8 seconds (was 19), a frozen Shield in 5. Many connections from one local program can no longer silence the Shield.

Stability. Settings and lists are saved atomically and flushed to disk, the Library and Messages databases use write-ahead logging, a stuck certificate tool no longer stops Safeer Link, and Safeer Browser now records a trace when it crashes. An update installs the same kind of Safeer OS you have (app or desktop environment), never the other one.

Fixes found by independent reviews. The Shield's counter in the Media Center counts everything again, our sandbox settings no longer leak into programs you open, Python helpers ignore packages in your home folder, Safeer Link handles damaged saved data without stopping, text files are read as UTF-8, and the JBL add-on sends a command only after the sound bar has proved it is the same device.

Smaller things. Splet supports navigator.storage (sites that check their storage quota work), and its buttons (new tab, downloads, close tab, mute, bookmark, back, forward, reload, home) have names for screen readers. Program search in Programs looks through all categories and keywords; a program installed while Safeer OS runs gets its icon at once; the notification count in the panel always matches the list; the Safeer Link and Messages chips follow the edge of the search field; the »new version installed« note closes after the automatic restart.

Safeer Browser for Linux 1.0.128 · Safeer OS 0.4.86 (with Safeer Control 2.1.83)

Security fixes. An independent review found two ways in which a program already running under your account could have turned your administrator password into full control of the computer, and we fixed both. When Safeer installs an update, the administrator side now copies each package into its own folder, checks its SHA-256 from the signed update list on that copy and installs only the copy, so the file in your folder can no longer be swapped after you type the password. The Safeer Shield DNS rule is now written without a temporary file. The saved tabs and playback that Safeer OS restores after an update are read only from your own regular file. Our own research found a third problem, in the web engine of the .deb packages (safeer-webkit 1.0.127): the BOLT-optimised WebKit libraries were missing the marker for a non-executable stack, so the desktop, the browser and the web processes ran with an executable stack, which removes a standard protection against exploits. safeer-webkit 1.0.128 is rebuilt without that BOLT option; the build and the package test now refuse any library without the marker. Flatpak and AppImage were not affected. Each fix has a test that fails without it. A second independent review led to more hardening. The Safeer Link window and the window showing another device's screen now accept actions only from their own page, not from a frame embedded in it (so a frame could not pair a device or send taps to it). Safeer Agent sends your key to the language model over http:// only on your home network and never follows a redirect. The JBL add-on remembers the certificate of your sound bar when you turn it on and sends commands only to that device. Downloads from GitHub check every redirect, not just the last one. Safeer Link also gives a clear error when a device sends no certificate, logs settings it cannot read or write and addresses shared folders only by their exact number; database table names come only from a fixed list; and Safeer Control shows why installing the separate screen failed. A third review found smaller desktop fixes: the dock now also finds Flatpak apps installed only for your user, the dock and desktop helpers no longer look at other users' processes, and an empty XDG_CONFIG_HOME (or XDG_CACHE_HOME, XDG_DATA_HOME) is treated as unset, so settings never land in the current folder.

A whole-code review, so old bugs don't carry on. After these reviews we went through the entire code by class of bug, not just the changes, and fixed what we found, again each with a test that fails without the fix. Commands that need your administrator password always use full paths, so a program in your home folder cannot pose as pkexec or a system tool. Safeer Shield answers DNS within 0.4 seconds even when the encrypted upstream is slow; before, the system could quietly switch to your router's DNS and stay there, bypassing the Shield. A page that asks for many names at once no longer switches DNS to unencrypted for 30 seconds, and the Shield counter now also counts what the YouTube and AdGuard protections remove. Splet treats only its own home page as home, media servers (Jellyfin, Emby, Plex, Kodi, TVHeadend) never send your login after a redirect to another server, and helper downloads (speech recognition, torrent engine) use https on every step. In Safeer Link, removing a device now ends its access at once – its tokens, sessions and open connections – instead of after up to 24 hours; pairing (also of a second Safeer app on the same device) can no longer take the identity of a device that is already in Link or of this computer, and only devices that are in Link can rename devices. A file name sent by another device can no longer write outside the intended folder, a received program or script is only shown in its folder, never opened, and the file, screen and sound servers can no longer be held up by silent connections or ones that send data drop by drop. Converting a video for your TV reaches only public addresses or your home network, never this computer itself, and your device key goes only to a Safeer device whose certificate is pinned; it now also works with HLS playlists and with links that redirect. Safeer OS and Safeer Browser no longer overwrite each other's settings: closing the browser could undo a setting you had just changed in Safeer OS (for example your DNS choice), and a save interrupted halfway could reset all settings at the next start. Each program now saves only what it changed, atomically, and a settings file that cannot be read is kept aside instead of being replaced with defaults.

This release also contains everything from 1.0.127, which was published on GitHub only:

Safeer Browser on GTK 4. The browser is rebuilt on GTK 4 and WebKitGTK 6.0. The Flatpak carries our own patched WebKitGTK 2.54.1 and libsoup 3.8.0, and Safeer DRM for protected video – it starts only after you click Play in Safeer DRM and never without the site's permission. Safeer DRM is now part of every package (.deb, Flatpak, AppImage) and is no longer downloaded in the background after start. Google's Widevine module is fetched automatically from Google's servers the first time you play protected video – you install nothing.

Privacy like Firefox. Tracking protection in three levels (Standard, Strict, Custom) and a shield to turn it off for one site; per-site permissions (camera, microphone, location, notifications, autoplay, protected content); choose your DNS-over-HTTPS provider; clear browsing data, also on exit. Unwanted pop-ups are blocked – sign-in and payment windows still open. A pop-up that opens empty and then jumps to another site is blocked too.

A real browser. Downloads to your Downloads folder with a question before running programs; find with a match counter; print; full screen; mute a tab; zoom; links to apps (e-mail, phone, magnet) open after you confirm; network and certificate error pages in six languages; offer to make Safeer your default browser.

Media Center, redesigned. A left menu with your real sources, a Home page with Continue watching, Recently added, Most played and Favourites, and a now-playing bar at the bottom. Automatic playlists from your own music (Most played, Not heard for a while, genres, artists, Discover) – made on your computer, no cloud. Hide what you don't use from the menu. Play on … sends music to a network speaker (DLNA) or to your devices in Safeer Link. Audio tracks, audio and subtitle delay, subtitles from a file or the web, equaliser. The film and series catalogue loads twice as fast; live TV shows every channel logo and RTV SLO plays again. Login tokens of your media servers (Jellyfin, Navidrome, Plex …) are never stored in playlists or sent to other devices; Jellyfin 12 is supported.

One desktop, one process. Safeer OS, Safeer Control, Safeer Link, the Media Center, the player and the web all run in one process; the desktop shell runs next to it in its own supervised process and comes back in under a second if it stops. At idle the whole desktop uses about 470 MiB on the test PC (each web chat you add in Messages, such as Gmail, adds its own web page: about 590 MiB measured for Gmail). The desktop speaks six languages, uses one colour theme, works with the keyboard and the TV remote, and now has everything the previous desktop had: file actions, Continue here, Show on …, voice and notes in search, largest files, dock editing. Notifications go one way, settings for Link, the web and the desktop are in Safeer OS Settings, and the desktop widget shows what is playing.

Linux Mint. The desktop no longer hides behind the Mint panel or the dock; a mouse applet in the panel replaces the misleading battery icon on desktop PCs.

Our WebKit everywhere, and faster. GTK 4 is the default everywhere, and the .deb packages now carry the same patched WebKitGTK 2.54.1 and libsoup 3.8.0 as the Flatpak. It is built with Clang 22, ThinLTO and profile-guided optimisation (PGO), and in the .deb also optimised with BOLT. On our test PC (Intel Core i5-4590), Speedometer 3.1 went from 8.2 with our earlier GCC build to 11.1–11.4 with PGO and 11.9 with PGO and BOLT; BOLT also adds about 2 % on JetStream and 3 % on MotionMark. Our WebKit fix stops pages with many backdrop-filter layers (for example www.24ur.com) from eating memory and a whole CPU core. WebKit has accepted it (324100@main) and it is in the WebKitGTK 2.54 branch, so it also reaches other WebKitGTK users with their next update.

Tabs like a modern browser. Tabs shrink instead of breaking the layout, show the site icon and the full title on hover, and sit in the window's title bar. Web pages follow the system's dark mode (you can change it).

DNS without limits. Safeer Shield is the default DNS (blocks ads and threats, never challenge pages such as Cloudflare or hCaptcha), with Quad9, Cloudflare, Google, AdGuard and OpenDNS over encrypted DNS, your own address, or off – and an automatic fallback if a provider fails.

Your accounts in the Media Center. Sign in to YouTube once (in Splet, several accounts) and your playlists are available on all your linked devices. Spotify playlists, liked songs and podcasts play in our player with our controls, and Safeer Shield mutes and skips audio ads; signing in with Google lets you pick the Google account. Twitch plays in our player without inserted ads. Sign out of any of them inside Safeer OS.

A fuller Media Center. Home now has discovery shelves (popular films and series, music, your YouTube and Spotify playlists, Twitch live, radio); YouTube plays inside the Media Center window; playlists are shown as track lists; search is much faster and shows one card per title with the best stream; cards show quality, language and source. Adult add-ons appear only in the Private category, only when you turn it on and only on that device. Play on...

Safeer Browser 1.0.127 · Safeer OS 0.4.85 (Safeer Control 2.1.82) · safeer-webkit 1.0.127

Warning

Security issue in the .deb packages of this release – use 1.0.128 instead. The BOLT-optimised WebKit libraries in safeer-webkit_1.0.127_amd64.deb are missing the non-executable stack marker (PT_GNU_STACK), so Safeer OS, Safeer Browser and their web processes run with an executable stack. The Flatpak and AppImage packages are not affected. 1.0.128 is rebuilt without the cause and checks for it automatically.

Varnostna napaka v paketih .deb te izdaje (izvršljiv sklad) – uporabite 1.0.128. Flatpak in AppImage nista prizadeta.

Safeer Browser for Linux 1.0.127 · Safeer OS 0.4.85 (with Safeer Control 2.1.82)

Safeer Browser on GTK 4. The browser is rebuilt on GTK 4 and WebKitGTK 6.0.

DNS without limits. Safeer Shield is the default DNS (blocks ads and threats, never challenge pages such as Cloudflare or hCaptcha), with Quad9, Cloudflare, Google, AdGuard and OpenDNS over encrypted DNS, your own address, or off – and an automatic fallback if a provider fails.

Your accounts in the Media Center. Sign in to YouTube once (in Splet, several accounts) and your playlists are available on all your linked devices. Spotify playlists, liked songs and podcasts play in our player with our controls, and Safeer Shield mutes and skips audio ads; signing in with Google lets you pick the Google account. Twitch plays in our player without inserted ads. Sign out of any of them inside Safeer OS.

A fuller Media Center. Home now has discovery shelves (popular films and series, music, your YouTube and Spotify playlists, Twitch live, radio); YouTube plays inside the Media Center window; playlists are shown as track lists; search is much faster and shows one card per title with the best stream; cards show quality, language and source. Adult add-ons appear only in the Private category, only when you turn it on and only on that device. Play on … is also in the video window, and picture and sound stay in sync on network speakers (adjustable delay).

Messages. Archive, delete, mark read or unread, star, move or label right in the list, several at once, with Undo; reply from the list without opening the conversation. The messages panel in the top bar can mark a message read or unread, mark it important or delete it (with Undo).

Desktop. Safeer Browser instead of Firefox in the dock, one Show desktop button, distinct icons for Messages and Splet.

Icons you can tell apart. Safeer Shield now has its own icon in the top panel next to Messages: it shows whether the Shield is on, off or has a problem, with the number of blocked requests; click it for Shield settings, or turn it on and off from its menu. The Linux Mint update icon in the panel is now a circular arrow instead of a shield (with the Papirus and the Mint-Y icons), so it is no longer mistaken for Safeer Shield. Safeer Control shows a computer and a phone in the panel instead of a shield. Safeer Browser has its own icon (a globe with the Safeer S), so it is no longer the same as Safeer OS.

Your own scripts in the Media Center. In Customize menu → My scripts you can import JavaScript (.js) and shell (.sh) files yourself. JavaScript runs in the Spotify page when Spotify starts (off until you switch it on, no access to Safeer OS itself); a shell script runs only when you press Run, with your own permissions, for at most 60 seconds, and its output is shown. Safeer does not supply or review scripts; what you import is your responsibility, and you confirm a warning before every import.

Spotify and ads. Shield mutes an ad on a free account and the music carries on afterwards; Safeer no longer blocks or replaces Spotify's ad requests (that stalled the player after an ad). Spotify's terms forbid avoiding ads, and Safeer does not promise to hide them.

Small fixes. Settings search finds Network connections when you type »wifi« and hides the volume slider like every other setting that does not match. The update note on Home shows only when there is an update. Hidden Safeer OS windows no longer refresh the clock, the Shield counter, sound, network, devices and the message list in the background; they catch up as soon as you show them.

Hide shelves. Automatic playlists and Recently added on Home can be hidden for good (button Hide, bring them back under Customize menu); hidden shelves are not loaded.

First start and the way back. A new Safeer OS installation opens a short guide: desktop language (six languages, the system language by default), optional sign-in to YouTube, Spotify and Twitch on their own pages, Safeer Shield, and linking a device with Safeer Link – every step can be skipped, and the guide is in Settings to run again. Existing users do not get it on update. Back to Cinnamon in Settings (or safeer-os --nazaj-na-cinnamon in a terminal) stops Safeer OS from starting at sign-in and restores the Mint panel, dock and look you had before – no uninstalling, no password, your data stays; opening Safeer OS from the menu offers to bring it back.

Stability. Idle and unanswered network connections are closed after 10 seconds, so they no longer pile up and crash the desktop; Safeer Link keeps listening even after a temporary error. The desktop no longer stutters every 10 seconds when no Hub is connected, and starting a magnet stream, a handover or loading dock icons no longer freezes it. The side dock comes back by itself if it closes or crashes (at most three times in ten minutes). Network speakers keep playing when the TV turns on and grabs the speaker by itself (HDMI-CEC) – if you switch to the TV yourself, your choice wins. JetStream 3.0 runs to the end again: web pages now see your real language instead of »C«, and a page may use up to half of your RAM (was a quarter) – the memory guard now stops only a page whose memory keeps growing (a real leak), not a demanding page wi...

Safeer Browser for Linux 1.0.126 · Safeer Control 2.1.81 · Safeer OS 0.4.83

Dock your way. Right-click a program on the desktop and choose Add to dock or Remove from dock. Panels menu › Edit dock lists the dock with up/down arrows and a remove button, plus Add a program with search – it works with the remote too. The dock has a clean transparent look (no grey strip at the screen edge).

Search in the desktop player. Type in the player on the desktop: the three most likely results appear as soon as they arrive, so Files stays visible. Searching for a radio station shows stations from your country first (»rock radio« → Rock Radio, Radio 1 Rock), and a station with several channels shows them as buttons under the player (Rock Radio: Best Ballads, Hard & Heavy, Classics). The stations' own pages tell Safeer the channels – nothing is typed in by hand.

Protected video. Pages that need Widevine (Netflix, Disney+, Max …) open in the Chromium-based browser you already have (Brave, Chrome …), with a short note why. Safeer does not ship or download the Widevine component.

Tidier desktop. Unreachable devices are one short line (only when you show programs of all devices); the search box hint is never cut off; bigger search boxes with a magnifier in Files and Programs; Find Stremio add-ons button at the top of the Media Center; 160 % text size option. PeerTube is searched only on servers you add.

Also in this release (1.0.125): couch mode in the Media Center (remote, phone, gamepad, mouse), Safeer Player full screen, music from this computer inside the Music catalogue, content language without hiding unknown titles, Stremio add-ons without the Stremio app, PeerTube and Internet Archive not built in.

Safeer Browser for Linux 1.0.124 · Safeer Control 2.1.79 · Safeer OS 0.4.81

Panels on the desktop. Hide panel now works on every panel, also the last one. Hidden panels wait as buttons under the search box (Media Center, Files, Programs) – one click brings them back.

Your folders. Files on the desktop lists the Desktop folder and the folder bookmarks you have in Nemo, like the usual Linux Mint desktop.

Music in the Media Center. Songs from your disk are a song list with title and artist instead of a wall of identical tiles; All shows the first eight. Music add-ons that present songs as films now appear under Music, with the artist.

One search box for everything. The search box at the top of the desktop finds programs, settings tools (display, sound, network, power …), files, notes, devices in Safeer Link and titles from the Media Center. It understands what you are looking for: a web address goes to the web, a program opens, a file with a matching name opens. Web results open in a panel on the desktop, with everything the browser can do. Words in other forms still match (»nastavitve zaslona« finds Display).

It learns from you – on this computer only. What you pick for a search comes first the next time. Nothing leaves the computer.

Search by voice. Press the microphone in the search box and speak. Speech is recognised on this computer (whisper.cpp) – nothing goes to the internet. The first time, Safeer asks before it downloads speech recognition (about 194 MB) and checks every file against its SHA-256. While you speak you see the sound level and the words as they are recognised.

Show it on the TV. Say or type »Sintel on TV« or »… na računalniku« (Slovenian, English, German, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian): the title opens in the Media Center of that device. If there are several devices of that kind, you choose. Your phone can also be the microphone: what you say into the remote for this computer appears in the search box here.

Safeer Player. The Media Center opens in its own window and fills the screen when you search.

Calmer look. Safeer OS and Safeer Control use the blue desktop theme by default. Safeer Cinnamon 1.2.2: the dock sits on the right edge and hides itself.

Connecting devices. Every device can connect to every device with its own 6-digit code. A code is always typed on another device, never on the one that shows it. A computer that restarts Safeer Control stays connected to the Safeer Link it was paired with.
