Restrict caller-supplied object-manager and disk paths used by metadata IOCTLs to the forms required by VeraCrypt. Also force symlink access checks, remove the unused legacy geometry handler, authorize real-drive probing before name resolution, and gate cache wiping on successful emergency key clearing.

Clone command-line auto-mount options before device and favorite batches, and clone the batch options again for each favorite before applying favorite-specific fields.
This prevents interactive credentials, PIM, KDF choices, and per-favorite filesystem settings from carrying over to later favorites.
Propagate EMVSupportEnabled through MountOptions serialization and mount setup so elevated core service requests use the same EMV setting as the caller.
Document the two Microsoft-signed loader sets and their firmware db requirements, the EfiBootLoader diagnostics registry key, and the BIOS third-party certificates option needed on machines that ship with a 2023-only Secure Boot configuration.
Explain why the Windows Secure Boot certificate rollout does not trigger automatically on system-encrypted machines, how to trigger it via the documented AvailableUpdates registry value, the precautions to take, and the recovery procedures when Secure Boot blocks the boot chain.
Link the page from the System Encryption documentation and the CHM table of contents.
Track Microsoft Windows Production PCA 2011 and Windows UEFI CA 2023 in the firmware db parser so the trust of the chainloaded Windows boot manager copy (bootmgfw_ms.vc) can be verified.
Add BootEncryption::GetEfiBootChainTrustStatus to check the installed VeraCrypt loader set and the bootmgfw_ms.vc signer against the active Secure Boot db, asserting nothing from malformed or partial firmware data.
Warn before reboot during Setup upgrade/repair and log a System Favorites service event when a boot chain component is no longer trusted, so Secure Boot certificate changes surface in Windows instead of as a pre-boot failure.

Expose FFS as the native OpenBSD filesystem option for volume creation and accept FFS/UFS on the command line, mapping mounts to the OpenBSD ffs filesystem type.
Run newfs through the elevated core service on vnd raw devices, then temporarily mount the new filesystem to transfer root directory ownership back to the invoking user.
Keep the non-interactive creation default as FAT on OpenBSD so existing unattended scripts do not start requiring elevation.
Reuse the OpenBSD doas PTY prompt flow on FreeBSD so opendoas receives the password through its controlling terminal.
Apply the same foreground process group validation on FreeBSD as on OpenBSD when attaching the private doas authentication PTY.
Detect the incompatible FreeBSD security/doas package by pkg origin and fail with explicit guidance.
Decrement ActiveWorkItems only after the completion work item has returned queue resources and released its pool item. EncryptedIoQueueStop now synchronizes with WorkItemLock after the active count drains, ensuring the last work item has stopped touching queue state before the work item pool and buffer pools are freed.
Zero the preallocated work item pool before the shared error cleanup can scan it, since driver TCalloc uses uninitialized pool memory. Also clear WorkItemPool after EncryptedIoQueueStop frees it so a reused queue cannot retry cleanup through a stale pointer on a later start failure.
Keep ordered flush barrier support available behind the new VC_DRIVER_CONFIG_ENABLE_ORDERED_FLUSH_BARRIERS driver configuration flag. With the flag clear, non-system IRP_MJ_FLUSH_BUFFERS requests complete successfully as they did before d1f73ce4 instead of entering EncryptedIoQueue.
This narrows the default Windows driver behavior while investigating 1.26.29 instability reports, but retains an opt-in path for targeted testing of ordered flush barriers. The close-time best-effort host flush is now gated by the same flag, so default close and dismount behavior also matches the pre-d1f73ce4 path.
Revert the IRP completion dispatch changes from a7ebddc5 while keeping later ordered flush barrier handling intact. This restores the previous model where ordinary early completions are completed directly and queued final completions use DelayedWorkQueue.
The CriticalWorkQueue dependency was introduced as a follow-up to the deferred completion deadlock fix, but current Windows instability reports point to it as a likely regression risk. Returning to the 1.26.24-style completion path narrows the driver behavior change while preserving the documented deadlock mitigation architecture.
Move child pipe descriptors away from stdio slots before remapping them, avoiding collisions when 0/1/2 are closed.
On OpenBSD, wait for authentication-terminal output before writing the doas password, avoiding prompt text matching while keeping the startup timeout as the upper bound.
Keep OpenBSD doas stderr on the private authentication PTY because doas requires stderr to be a terminal while prompting.
Capture authentication-terminal diagnostics, strip prompts from user-facing errors, and fail promptly on explicit authentication denial.
Wait for actual prompt bytes before sending the password so OpenBSD PTY POLLIN|POLLHUP before slave open cannot race with readpassphrase terminal flushing.
Set close-on-exec on elevated-service startup pipes before fork and centralize duplication onto standard descriptors.
Clear FD_CLOEXEC on descriptors intentionally kept across exec, including dup2(fd, fd) no-op cases.
OpenBSD defines O_CLOEXEC, but rejects it in posix_openpt() with EINVAL. Retry with the POSIX pseudoterminal flags and then set FD_CLOEXEC explicitly so doas authentication can create its private PTY.
Prefer sudo when available and fall back to doas on Unix. Run doas authentication through a PTY while keeping service communication on stdin/stdout pipes, and use a no-fork service mode for the doas path.
Keep doas authentication terminal descriptors close-on-exec and close the slave descriptor after attaching it as the controlling terminal. Preserve startup diagnostics through stderr until service synchronization completes, then redirect no-fork service stderr away from the closed parent pipe.
Use noninteractive privilege-helper auth checks for both sudo and doas so cached, nopass, or persisted sessions do not need an unnecessary VeraCrypt password prompt. Keep the PTY password path for doas when authentication is required.
Use a shared Unix DOAS_USER helper for FUSE and mount ownership, backed by getpwnam_r and guarded so non-OpenBSD platforms only trust it for VeraCrypt's internal doas no-fork service path. Detach asynchronous child-reaper threads to avoid leaking joinable pthread handles.
Keep the historical auto-mount behavior as the first attempt when the user did not request a filesystem type. If that mount fails on Linux, detect the filesystem with blkid and retry only for FAT-family types that minimal mount implementations may not auto-probe.
Leave explicit filesystem types and NTFS kernel-driver resolution unchanged.
Do not package veracrypt-symbolic.svg under hicolor symbolic icons, as KDE may prefer it for AppIndicator tray items and render a black monochrome icon.
Remove the obsolete symbolic icon during generic installer upgrades and refresh the hicolor icon cache after install or uninstall cleanup.
Validate SecureBoot firmware data before trusting fallback selection and mark the unsupported-db helper as noreturn.
Record unsupported Secure Boot db refusals in EFI loader diagnostics, and avoid stale rescue-disk prompts after a refusal.
Reuse the central EFI loader selection policy for elevated signing-support checks instead of duplicating fallback/refusal logic.
Translate unsupported Secure Boot db failures across elevation without duplicate generic dialogs, surface stored-PIM refresh failures, and log unattended loader update failures.
Favorite auto-mount on arrival could repeatedly report an unavailable drive letter when the configured letter was occupied by a non-VeraCrypt device. Classify this case before entering the mount path and use a non-modal notification during arrival scans.
Track letter conflicts separately from successfully mounted arrival favorites so a failed mount is suppressed while the host remains connected without being treated as mounted, and without triggering a delayed mount just because the letter is later freed.
Snapshot the arrival favorites list before mount attempts because modal UI can process device-change messages that reload favorites. Also fix a device-removal pointer typo that advanced the broadcast-volume pointer instead of the mounted-volume path.
Skip desktop/MIME cache refresh for console installers, where no desktop integration files are installed.
Guard update-mime-database and update-desktop-database calls so minimal systems without desktop-file-utils do not print post-install errors.
Apply the same best-effort cache refresh behavior to FreeBSD generic scripts for parity.
Also fix the FreeBSD uninstall script to remove the per-resolution PNG icons from /usr/local/share/icons, matching where they are installed.
Detect whether the active firmware Secure Boot db trusts the Microsoft Corporation UEFI CA 2011 before selecting the 2011-signed EFI loader set.
Abort with a clear diagnostic when Secure Boot is enabled but neither the 2011 CA nor the required 2023 CA pair is trusted, and document the CA requirements.
Preserve positive CA detection when malformed db data appears only after a supported Microsoft CA set has already been found, while recording the parse error in diagnostics.

Install staged /usr child directories by merging their contents into existing destination directories instead of replacing them. This preserves /usr/sbin symlinks to bin on merged-/usr distributions while keeping traditional layouts working.
Fixes issue: https://github.com/veracrypt/VeraCrypt/issues/1764
Record EFI bootloader resource set changes during PostOOBE refreshes and mark a machine-wide rescue disk reminder.
Show the reminder on VeraCrypt startup using the existing generic rescue disk prompt and Create Rescue Disk flow.
Accept Argon2 and Argon2id aliases through HashGetIdByName so Windows mount parsing matches volume creation. Update Windows command-line documentation in English, Russian, and Chinese, and rebuild the CHM user guides.
Keep Argon2 symbols internal unless explicitly exported so VeraCryptFormat.dll exposes only the SDK API.
Add Argon2id/BLAKE2b aliases for the SDK hash selector and update the public header comment to reflect the supported KDF/hash set.
The Blake2b hash class (BLAKE2b-512) was fully implemented but never
registered in Hash::GetAvailableAlgorithms(), so it was absent from the
Random Pool Enrichment, Keyfile Generator and Benchmark dialogs on
Linux/macOS. In particular, when Argon2 is selected as the volume PRF,
the RNG pool hash is set to BLAKE2b-512, but the Random Pool Enrichment
dialog could neither display nor pre-select it, diverging from Windows
which offers BLAKE2b-512 in the same dialog.
Register Blake2b after Streebog (matching the Crypto.c PRF order). Its
64-byte digest divides RNG_POOL_SIZE (320), so the HashMixPool size
constraint holds, and blake2b.o is always built in non-wolfCrypt builds.
Also make Pkcs5Kdf::GetAlgorithm(const Hash&) Argon2-aware by removing
the unconditional skip of the Argon2 KDF, so a BLAKE2b-512 hash now maps
to the Argon2 KDF instead of throwing.
Document BLAKE2b-512 and Argon2id usage in the HTML/CHM user guide and Russian/Chinese translations. Clarify Argon2id's non-system scope, PBKDF2-HMAC system encryption behavior, PIM parameters, and regenerate the CHM files.
The fixed-size data pool used by LoadLanguageData() in
src/Common/Language.c stores the embedded English XML strings plus the
selected language's XML strings. When AddPoolData() returns NULL
because the 1 MB DATA_POOL_CAPACITY is exhausted, LoadLanguageData()
aborts and returns FALSE. The callers ignore the return value, so the
dictionary is left partially populated: later XML entries (many
controls, warnings and newer dialogs) are missing while earlier
entries, including most menu items, remain translated.
Since 1.26.24 the XML language files have grown enough that several
languages now overflow the pool (e.g. Corsican, French, German and
Dutch).
Increase DATA_POOL_CAPACITY in src/Common/Dictionary.h from 1 MB to
4 MB to accommodate current and near-future translations.
This regression only affects the Windows version, which uses the
Win32/C localization path with this fixed pool. Linux and macOS use
wxWidgets/wxTranslations and do not use src/Common/Dictionary.c for
GUI localization.
Fixes: GH-1587
Use plain objects for x86 intrinsic helper translation units only when building a local arm64-only macOS development binary. Universal macOS builds on Apple Silicon continue to use feature-specific suffix rules so the x86_64 slice keeps the required compiler flags.
Addresses the Apple Silicon Homebrew build failure reported in PR #1678. Credit to Audrius Buika for the original fix proposal and to Damian Rickard for confirming the issue on current master.
- Remove the redundant TC_STR_RELEASE_DATE define from Common/Tcdefs.h
- Add preprocessor helpers to convert TC_RELEASE_DATE_YEAR/MONTH/DAY into
the same "Month Day, Year" wide string used by TC_STR_RELEASED_BY
- Update source_date_epoch.sh to derive SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH from the three
numeric date defines only, removing the string-date parsing fallback
A SourceForge report pointed out that the password-change and header-KDF dialogs reused the current custom PIM when the user selected a different KDF. That was harmless when all choices used the same PBKDF2 PIM scale, but it is wrong with Argon2 because the same numeric PIM has different security and performance meaning.
Avoid silently carrying a custom PIM across KDF changes in both the Windows and wx dialogs. If the new KDF differs from the current one and the user has not explicitly opened the New PIM field, use the default PIM for the selected KDF instead. Keep preserving the current PIM when the KDF is unchanged.
Enable explicit New PIM entry in the header KDF-only flow, warn before resetting an existing custom PIM to the new KDF default, and validate explicitly entered KDF-only PIM values.
Report the new KDF from the Windows dialog as well as the new PIM so favorite volumes update both stored PIM and pinned KDF metadata after password or header KDF changes, including system favorites. Add translation fallbacks, documentation, and release notes for the new behavior.
Allow reproducible makeself finalization to run with Python 2.6+ or Python 3 by avoiding Python 3-only syntax and probing python3, python, then python2.
Return a structured internal result for favorite mount batches instead of combining a BOOL return value with optional out parameters.
Keep the public MountFavoriteVolumes API unchanged and preserve favorite-on-arrival cancellation and drive-letter handling semantics.
Add a cancel callback and batch abort flag so auto-mount-all stops after dialog cancellation.
Mark MountVolume ERR_USER_ABORT with ERROR_CANCELLED so external /cancelmount also stops the scan.
Add a root-driver abort IOCTL that bypasses the mount control mutex and sets cooperative KDF abort flags for the active mount.
Restrict abort requests to privileged callers or to the user that initiated the pending mount, and retry early wait-dialog cancel requests until the driver has registered the cancellable mount context.
Wire the wait dialog Cancel button to send the abort request through a fresh driver handle, and propagate ERR_USER_ABORT through header/cache processing.
Add a /cancelmount command-line switch that sends the same abort request without displaying UI, so users can cancel hidden-wait-dialog mount operations from another process.
Run the install(SCRIPT) mtime/mode clamp for every CPack generator instead of
only the DEB branch, so the RPM payload staging tree is normalised the same way
before rpmbuild sees it. Payload file timestamps and permissions are therefore
reproducible on any rpm version.
For the RPM header, set the spec %defines that pin BuildTime to
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH (use_source_date_epoch_as_buildtime, which consumes the
exported environment variable) and BuildHost to a fixed value (_buildhost), and
clamp payload mtimes through both the legacy clamp_mtime_to_source_date_epoch
macro and its modern build_mtime_policy replacement. source_date_epoch_from_changelog
is disabled so CPack's placeholder changelog date cannot hijack the epoch.
These macros only exist on rpm >= 4.14 (buildtime/mtime) and >= 4.18
(buildhost). To make the two header fields reproducible on older rpm as well
(CentOS/RHEL 7, rpm < 4.14), add a small libc-interposition shim
(Build/Tools/repro_buildstamp.c) that pins time() and the build hostname,
LD_PRELOAD'ed onto cpack's rpmbuild child by the RPM packaging wrappers. The
shim calls the real uname() and overwrites only nodename, leaving architecture
detection intact, never overrides monotonic clocks, and defers to the real
time() when SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is unset so a missing epoch is a no-op rather than
a frozen 1970 clock. It is enabled only after it compiles and loads cleanly;
otherwise packaging proceeds without it, because a preload that fails to load
would emit an ld.so error that rpm's check-buildroot script turns into a fatal
%install error.
Derive and export SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in the rpm and openSUSE wrappers the same
way the deb wrapper already does, mark both wrappers executable, and note in the
README that .deb and .rpm packages are reproducible including on older rpm.
Keep caller-provided SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH authoritative and derive the automatic default through a shared helper used by the Makefile, direct CMake/CPack packaging, and the deb packaging wrapper.
When repository metadata is available, use the HEAD commit timestamp without relying on git -C. Resolve the source root before probing Git so symlinked source paths still use the checkout HEAD. For source tarballs without .git, derive the fallback timestamp from the release date encoded in Common/Tcdefs.h instead of the stale 2020-01-01 constant.
Add TC_RELEASE_DATE_DAY and validate it together with TC_RELEASE_DATE_YEAR, TC_RELEASE_DATE_MONTH, and TC_STR_RELEASE_DATE. Abort when no valid timestamp can be derived.
For direct CMake invocation, initialize SOURCEPATH when the wrapper has not provided it, use the shared helper for derivation, validate the result, and export it for package targets. Also persist the configured epoch through CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE so later standalone cpack --config runs export the same value before invoking package generators.
Document that automatic git-checkout builds and release-tarball builds intentionally use different epochs; release reproducers should build from the tarball or set SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH explicitly.
Add a KDF checklist to the Windows benchmark dialog while keeping all algorithms selected by default.
Filter KDF benchmark execution to the checked algorithms and silently skip when none are selected.
Reuse existing KDF localization strings and keep Language.xml unchanged.
Guard BLAKE2s x86 SIMD dispatch on compiled SSE2 intrinsic support so NOSSE2 builds do not reference missing compressor symbols.
Make Argon2 AVX2/SSE2 stubs fall back to the next available implementation instead of returning ARGON2_INCORRECT_PARAMETER when runtime CPU flags outpace build capabilities.
Emit NASM-compatible .pdata/.xdata records for the x64 table AES routines and AES-NI 32-block paths.
Describe the nonvolatile GP and XMM6-XMM15 saves so kernel stack unwinding can cross these routines reliably.
Gate the metadata on win64 output so ELF and Mach-O builds keep their existing assembly paths.
Only call the one-block assembly helper when one block remains after the three-block loop.
This prevents zero-block and multiple-of-three requests from reading and writing one extra block past the caller buffer.
Add a Twofish multiblock self-test covering block counts 0 through 9.
Align CRYPTO_INFO primary and secondary key-schedule buffers so cipher implementations can safely use word-sized schedule access on VeraCrypt-managed storage.
Keep generic Camellia direct uint64 schedule indexing. Builds that define CRYPTOPP_ALLOW_UNALIGNED_DATA_ACCESS use direct 64-bit key and block byte loads/stores; memcpy is retained only for strict-alignment builds.
Require SSSE3 before using the x64 AESNI 16-way Camellia path because the assembly uses pshufb in addition to AES and AVX.
CRYPTOPP_BOOL_X64 is defined as 0 on non-x64 builds, so #ifdef made HasSSE2() and HasISSE() always true. Use #if so non-x64 builds follow runtime feature detection and DisableCPUExtendedFeatures().
Ensure SHA-256 and SHA-512 PBKDF cancellation paths restore saved extended processor state before cleanup. Remove unnecessary extended-state save/restore around BLAKE2s, which does not use AVX in the current implementation.
Hidden volumes are forced to quick format to avoid rewriting the hidden data area. Keep that behavior while skipping the file-container allocation shortcut that writes plaintext zero sectors at 128 MiB intervals.
The allocation shortcut remains enabled for non-hidden file containers; hidden containers now use only the encrypted formatter write path for sectors that are written.
Enhance build_msi_x64.bat to enumerate installed Windows Kits 10 SDK bin directories matching 10.* and select the newest x86 path that contains the MSI tools.
Keep VC_DIR_PLATFORMSDK as the first override and preserve the existing fixed SDK fallback paths for older installations.
Require MsiInfo.exe during discovery as well as msitran.exe and msidb.exe so the selected SDK path supports the final MSI metadata step.
Replace outdated Visual Studio 2010/2019 and legacy Windows SDK 7.1, WDK 7.1, and Windows 8.1 SDK guidance with the current Visual Studio 2022/v143 toolchain, Windows 10/11 SDK, and WDK requirements.
Document NASM, YASM, WiX Toolset v3.x, signtool.exe, and optional legacy BIOS bootloader tools separately. Update the build flow for x64, ARM64, Win32 setup/helper projects, and explicit Driver project builds.
Align the zh-cn and ru translated guides with the updated English content while preserving their existing translation style. Fix test certificate paths to use src/Signing/TestCertificate.
Route Linux GUI mounted-volume opens through Windows Explorer when WSL interop is available, before falling back to xdg-open and known file managers.
Detect WSL by checking for /usr/bin/wslinfo and /usr/bin/wslpath, build the target path from the WSL root UNC so /mnt/<drive> mount points stay in the WSL VFS overlay, and launch Explorer directly so the folder argument is preserved.
BMI2 support is advertised by CPUID leaf 7, subleaf 0, EBX bit 8. The previous early assignment used CPUID leaf 1 EBX bit 8, which is not the BMI2 feature bit and could leave a bogus fallback value before vendor-specific leaf 7 detection.
Keep BMI2 detection based on the leaf 7 result only. Unlike AVX2, BMI2 is GPR-only and does not require an OS/XCR0 state gate.
Also save the max basic CPUID leaf immediately after CPUID leaf 0. The AMD/Hygon path reuses the cpuid buffer for leaf 0x80000005 before checking whether leaf 7 is available, so using the saved max basic leaf prevents RDSEED, AVX2, and BMI2 detection from being skipped because that buffer was clobbered.
AVX2 support is advertised by CPUID leaf 7, subleaf 0, EBX bit 5. The previous early assignment used cpuid1[1] bit 5, which is CPUID leaf 1 EBX and is not the AVX2 feature bit.
Record the leaf 7 AVX2 bit separately and assign g_hasAVX2 only after vendor-specific detection has completed. The final value is now gated by g_hasAVX, which reflects the OS/XCR0 AVX state check, so AVX2 code is not selected unless both the CPU and OS state support it.
Move the Unmount All mnemonic away from the single-volume Unmount action in the Windows resources and affected language files. This keeps the two main actions reachable through distinct keyboard accelerators across packaged translations.
Fixes https://github.com/veracrypt/VeraCrypt/issues/1751
Ensure ESP file writes have true replace semantics even when the operation is delegated to the elevated COM helper. This prevents shorter edits of EFI\VeraCrypt\DcsProp from leaving stale bytes at the end of the file.
Also XML-escape decoded EFI boot configuration values before serializing them, preserving values containing characters such as <, > and & during EfiBootConf save/update paths.
Fixes#954.
Mount temporary ReFS volumes as fixed media, since Windows does not support ReFS on removable media. Use FMIFS_HARDDISK for the FormatEx fallback while preserving the removable-media path for NTFS and exFAT.
Also make the FormatEx DONE-with-failure status explicit and guard against a missing callback parameter.
The GUI single-instance lock was previously created through wxSingleInstanceChecker without an explicit Unix path, causing wxWidgets to place .VeraCrypt-lock-$USER directly in the user home directory.
Resolve a private lock directory before constructing wxSingleInstanceChecker. Prefer $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/VeraCrypt, then $XDG_CACHE_HOME/VeraCrypt, then ~/.cache/VeraCrypt, and keep the previous home-directory behavior only as a final fallback if no XDG location can be used.
Update stale-lock cleanup to remove the lock from the same resolved directory, so false-positive cleanup continues to work after moving the lock out of $HOME.
Fixes https://github.com/veracrypt/VeraCrypt/issues/819
The Unix volume creation wizard applied the FAT32 sector-count limit as a blanket check for device-hosted hidden-volume outer volumes. On 512e disks Linux reports 512-byte logical sectors, so this incorrectly rejected larger device-hosted outer volumes even when the selected outer filesystem was not FAT.
Compute the actual VeraCrypt filesystem/data area size through a shared helper and apply the FAT32 size limit only when FAT is selected. This preserves correct FAT validation while allowing non-FAT outer volumes to proceed to the existing hidden-volume size estimation flow.
Update text-mode creation so FAT is not offered when the selected size cannot support it, and default to the platform native filesystem in that case. Clarify the user-facing FAT limit wording to refer to logical sector size.
Fixes#262
On macOS, the same whole disk can be addressed as both /dev/diskN and /dev/rdiskN. The GUI creation wizard only compared the selected path against the enumerated raw device path, so manually entering the block-device alias could bypass the existing DEVICE_PARTITIONS_ERR guard and allow formatting a disk that still had partitions.
Add a shared macOS device-path comparison helper that normalizes paths to their raw-device form before comparison. Use it in the GUI wizard so /dev/diskN and /dev/rdiskN are treated as the same whole-disk target while partition paths remain distinct.
Apply the same partitioned whole-device guard in the text/CLI creation path as well, including the macOS alias normalization, so command-line creation cannot format a partitioned top-level disk through an alternate device alias.
Fixes#728
Remove the remaining generated-form alignment flag that wxWidgets ignores in box sizers: the language page system-default button bottom alignment combined with wxEXPAND. Preserve the Legal Notices OK button centering and keep Forms.cpp and TrueCrypt.fbp in sync.
Keep the existing global sizer consistency check suppressions in place pending additional testing.
Follow-up to issue #49.
Bundle the FUSE2 userspace library inside the AppImage AppDir and make AppRun prefer APPDIR/usr/lib. This lets the bundled VeraCrypt binary resolve libfuse.so.2 on systems where FUSE2 userspace packages are no longer installed by default.
Name AppImage artifacts according to the GTK backend detected during the build. GTK3 builds keep the default VeraCrypt-<version>-<arch>.AppImage name, while GTK2 builds use a gtk2-legacy suffix to distinguish the legacy compatibility artifact.
Include immintrin.h in the Argon2 AVX2 implementation so GCC toolchains such as the one on CentOS 7 see the AVX2 intrinsic types when compiling with -mavx2.
Refs: https://github.com/veracrypt/VeraCrypt/issues/1595
CentOS 6 builds VeraCrypt with GCC 4.4.7 and -std=c++0x. That compiler does not support range-based for loops, and its libstdc++ does not provide std::string::back() or std::string::pop_back().
Avoid those constructs in the affected Unix/Linux code paths: use VeraCrypt's existing foreach helper when iterating PKCS#11 object handles, and use indexing plus erase() when trimming trailing slashes from PATH entries.
This keeps the code valid for newer Linux toolchains while restoring compatibility with the CentOS 6 build environment.
Stage VeraCrypt and wxWidgets sources under the SDK package directory before rendering the OpenWrt package Makefile. The generated recipe now refers only to fixed package-local paths, so checkout and work directory names are no longer parsed as GNU Make syntax or passed unquoted through recipe source arguments.
Validate VeraCrypt and wxWidgets version tokens before substituting them into generated package metadata. This prevents unexpected Make metacharacters from entering the generated OpenWrt recipe while preserving normal dotted release versions.
Quote OpenWrt QEMU test container-size values with the existing shell quoting helper, matching the password handling and preventing user-supplied size text from being split or interpreted by the guest shell.
OpenBSD builds were relying on ggod to generate embedded resource
headers. That tool is not available on a stock OpenBSD 7.9 install,
and using base od directly is not a safe substitute because it emits
zero-padded decimal values such as 060 and 098. Those tokens are then
included in C++ source and parsed as octal constants, which either
changes values or fails compilation.
Use hexdump with an explicit unsigned-byte format for OpenBSD. It is
part of the base system and emits unpadded decimal byte values suitable
for the existing resource-header pipeline.
The text-mode binary also crashed on normal process exit on OpenBSD,
including after --version, --test, create, mount, list, and dismount.
GDB showed the crash in libpcsclite_real during SCardReleaseContext(),
called from the static SCardManager destructor. This happened even for
commands that did not use EMV or security-token support because the
static manager constructor eagerly initialized PC/SC at startup.
Avoid eager PC/SC initialization and exit-time finalization on OpenBSD.
The existing call sites still initialize PC/SC lazily when EMV/token
operations need it, while ordinary CLI commands no longer touch
pcsc-lite and no longer crash during static destruction.
Validated on OpenBSD 7.9 amd64 with:
- gmake NOGUI=1 -j2
- veracrypt --text --version
- veracrypt --text --test
- device-hosted create/mount/list/dismount smoke test through doas/vnd

VeraCrypt derives the real (non-root) user from SUDO_UID/SUDO_GID
to set default mount-point ownership and the FUSE service access
filter. On OpenBSD, privileged commands are normally run through doas,
which exposes the invoking login name via DOAS_USER and does not set
the sudo variables. As a result, VeraCrypt launched through doas
attributes both to root instead of the invoking user.
When the sudo identity variables are absent, resolve DOAS_USER through
the password database and use that uid/gid for default mount-point
ownership and the VeraCrypt FUSE service access filter. sudo behavior
is unchanged.
This is a correctness fix for the doas launch path. It is not confirmed
to resolve the non-root ext2fs EACCES reported in the linked issues:
that failure occurs at the ext2fs layer reached through vnd, whose
backing-image I/O runs as root and is therefore already permitted by
the access filter.
Refs #1589.
Refs #1593.
OpenBSD device length detection was returning the raw disk sector count from DIOCGPDINFO directly. That value is not bytes and it describes the physical/default disk label, which caused VeraCrypt to expose an incorrectly sized FUSE backing image through vnd for device-hosted volumes.
Use the current disklabel from DIOCGDINFO, derive the opened partition from the device minor number, and return the selected partition size in bytes. Keep the raw c partition on the whole-disk path by using DL_GETDSIZE there.
Also reject sector-misaligned device-hosted sizes during volume creation so new malformed OpenBSD device-hosted volumes are not created. Do not reject existing malformed headers at mount time, so users can still mount old OpenBSD-created volumes for recovery.

Add OpenWrt SDK packaging under src/Build for console-only x86/64 builds. The build helper prepares the SDK, renders a local package recipe, builds VeraCrypt with the OpenWrt musl toolchain, uses wxWidgets 3.2.10 as static wxBase, enables FUSE3, and skips release self-tests during cross compilation.
Add a package template that installs the console binary, mount.veracrypt, and license files only. The package declares bash for mount.veracrypt and keeps runtime dependencies focused on the direct userland requirements.
Add a documented QEMU runtime test path that boots the matching OpenWrt image, installs the locally built package set with opkg, runs the VeraCrypt version and algorithm self-tests, and exercises a small filesystem=none container mount/unmount flow.
Allow wxbuild callers to pass WX_CONFIGURE_EXTRA_FLAGS so OpenWrt cross configure flags can be passed into the wxWidgets build without carrying an OpenWrt-specific source patch.
