What's Changed

Added

  • Session scripting with .rsc scripts (PR #387, contributed by Naim Shafiev) — Ásbrú-CM / SecureCRT-style automation of a live terminal: send keys, wait for and capture output, ask the user (ask … hide for masked input), run a local command, and open, split and close sessions, with variables, labels and goto/if_goto branching. Tools → Scripts… edits, validates, runs and stops scripts from the library at <config_dir>/scripts/ and opens the language reference; bundled examples cover shell and OpenWrt uptime, a local command and a first-run wizard. Connections and groups can auto-run scripts when the session starts, inherited down the group chain. The parser and event-driven engine live in rustconn-core; no new dependency was added. (rustconn-core/src/automation/script.rs, rustconn-core/src/script/manager.rs, rustconn/src/script_runner.rs, rustconn/src/dialogs/script.rs)
  • Scripts are safe against the remote host and other local users — a variable substituted into run must pass the connection-task check (no shell metacharacters, newlines or control characters), so text captured from a session cannot become a local command, and an ask … hide answer is never put on a command line. run gets no stdin, runs without session-token and cloud-credential variables, and is killed at its timeout (60 s when none is set). Deleting a script asks first; script ids are validated on every read and delete; a script missing from the local library is kept on save rather than replaced; engine Debug shows variable names only and values are zeroized.
  • The vault's user name and domain are used with its password, for every backend and protocol — a non-empty vault value replaces the connection's for that session, an empty one keeps it, DOMAIN\user is split, and an e-mail-style login is kept whole. Load credentials from vault in the editor fills password, user name and domain. Before, a Bitwarden user name reached RDP but not SSH, Telnet or Serial. KeePassXC does not supply them yet. (rustconn-core/src/secret/vault_identity.rs, rustconn/src/state/mod.rs, rustconn/src/window/mod.rs)

Fixed

  • Bitwarden "Search from vault root" finds entries by URL and full host name (issue #353) — the search returned items whose title was not exactly the connection's name or host, and they were dropped. An exact title still wins; otherwise a login URL host or an FQDN/short-name match is used when exactly one item matches, and ambiguity resolves to none with a warning. A URL-shaped host also searches by its host, RustConn's own item is accepted when a save was still in flight, and the debug log lists what each search returned. (rustconn-core/src/secret/bitwarden.rs)
  • Bitwarden item notes no longer become the RDP domain — the domain now comes from a custom domain field, or from the notes of RustConn's own RustConn: … item only; an implausible value is ignored. Saving to Bitwarden also no longer leaves the password in unwiped buffers. (rustconn-core/src/secret/bitwarden.rs)

Dependencies

  • tokio 1.54.0 → 1.54.1 (RUSTSEC-2026-0384) — fixes a data race and use-after-free in tokio::time::Interval on the multi-threaded runtime; cargo deny check advisories is clean.
  • Updated (semver-compatible): icu_collections, icu_locale_core, icu_normalizer, icu_normalizer_data, icu_properties, icu_properties_data 2.3.0 → 2.4.0, icu_provider 2.3.1 → 2.4.0, memmap2 0.9.11 → 0.9.12, open 5.4.4 → 5.4.5, system-deps 9.0.0 → 9.0.1, tinystr 0.8.4 → 0.8.5, yoke 0.8.3 → 0.8.4, zerovec 0.11.8 → 0.11.9, zerovec-derive 0.11.6 → 0.11.7; cargo-sources.json regenerated for the Flatpak/Flathub manifests. GNOME runtime 51, FreeRDP 3.32.2, cJSON 1.7.19, OpenH264 2.6.0 and every downloadable CLI tool were already current; the Snap stays on core24 + gnome-46-2404 (issue #174).

Verifying your download

Every binary on this release (deb, rpm, AppImage, Flatpak) is covered two ways.

Plain checksums — download SHA256SUMS alongside the asset, then:

sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS

Signed build provenance (SLSA, via Sigstore) — proves the file was built by this
workflow from this commit:

gh attestation verify RustConn-0.23.20-x86_64.AppImage --repo totoshko88/RustConn

(The snap is signed by the Snap Store; the macOS build is delivered via the Homebrew tap.)
