* refactor: use UNMOUNT instead of DISMOUNT in code
This change updates the term DISMOUNT in constants to UNMOUNT.
Other occurrences (e.g. variable names) are left alone for now.
* refactor(ui): use unmount instead of dismount
This change updates the GUI text and replaces dismount with unmount.
* docs: update term dismount -> unmount
* refactor(cmdline): add unmount
This change adds an argument 'unmount' for command line usage, while
trying to deprecate the old disnount argument.
The current dismount argument/flag will still work to not introduce
a breaking change.
* docs: mention that /dismount is deprecated
This change fixes the shorthand version of the argument /unmount
It also adds back the info for /dismount and that it is deprecated.
Added security checks to prevent mounting VeraCrypt volumes on system directories (like /usr/bin) or directories in the user's PATH, which could theoretically allow execution of malicious binaries instead of legitimate system binaries.
Key changes:
- Block mounting on protected system directories (/usr, /bin, /lib, etc.)
This restriction cannot be overridden
- Block mounting on directories present in user's PATH environment variable
This can be overridden with --allow-insecure-mount flag
- Add visual warnings (red border, "[INSECURE MODE]") when mounting on PATH directories is allowed
- Handle symlinks properly when checking paths
- Add new error messages for blocked mount points
To override PATH-based restrictions only (system directories remain protected):
veracrypt --allow-insecure-mount [options] volume mountpoint
Security Impact: Low to Medium
The attack requires either:
- User explicitly choosing a system directory as mount point instead of using VeraCrypt's default mount points
- Or attacker having both filesystem access to modify favorites configuration AND knowledge of the volume password
Default mount points are not affected by this vulnerability.
Security: CVE-2025-23021
Veracrypt currently appears in screenshots and screen captures,
which can unintentionally expose sensitive information, such as
the fact that Veracrypt is running or the location of your volumes.
Both Windows and macOS offer mechanisms to exclude specific windows
from being captured. While not foolproof, this is a useful preventative
measure. The method is a no-op for Linux/FreeBSD.
For more details on the wxWidgets API, see:
https://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.2/classwx_top_level_window.html#a337b9cec62b0cbd3b1b1545a83270f64
If vulnerability detected, a warning message is displayed during mount or backup/restore header, and changing the password is disallowed since it will not change the master key.
The class AdminPasswordRequestHandler was defined in several places in the same namespace and the linker was picking up one definition for constructor and the other one when calling virtual method.
Now we use different named for different implementations.

* Removal of any of the any of `wxALIGN_RIGHT`/`wxALIGN_CENTRE_HORIZONTAL`/`wxALIGN_BOTTOM`/`wxALIGN_CENTRE_VERTICAL` when used in conjunction with `wxEXPAND`
wxWidget has an "assert" that gets triggered anytime `wxEXPAND` gets used with an alignment property (useless override). This leads to a popup backtrace everytime a non-compliant widget is opened.
* Removal of missed `wxALIGN_RIGHT`/`wxALIGN_CENTRE_HORIZONTAL`/`wxALIGN_BOTTOM`/`wxALIGN_CENTRE_VERTICAL` when used in conjunction with `wxEXPAND`
* Removed property 'label' for wxMenuBar as no longer used (wxFormBuilder)
* Removed redundant 'wxALIGN_RIGHT' for the "OK" button in the preference panel (there is a spacer already in-place that pushes the buttons to the right)
* Removed redundant 'wxALIGN_RIGHT' for items in the wizard panel's (`WizardFrameBase`) button bar and added width spacing for the 2 spacers between the buttons to make up for the change.
* Changed constructor signature for the `WizardPage` and all subclasses
The addition of the wxString 'name' arg brings it inline with the new wxFromBuilder v3.10.1 output so that editing+generating the forms from it won't brake the build now.
* Removed remaining redundant 'wxALIGN_*' that were paired with 'wxEXPAND'.
* Added missing default flags to wxFileName::Normalize(..) method
The old empty initialization which was fine up to v2.8.12 of wxWidget gives off a compile warning. Since the default `wxPATH_NORM_ALL` is now depreciated (v3.x) the equivalent individual flags must be explicitly given.
* Changed spaces to tabs to bring last commit inline with the rest of the src code
* *: source files should not be executable
* *: make sure files have final newline
* *: remove BOM from text files
* translations: unify headers
* *: fix typos
* *: trim excess whitespace
* new xml Tag for en and de
* add linux support for env LANG
* precopiled header into TrueCrypt.fdp to substitute '_()' with 'LangString[]'
* more LangString in Code
* add Language xml's to Linux Setup location
* backup language for linux is en
* remove Language.en.xml install
* rearange new xml lines to end
* yes/no dialogs now translated
* All OK/Cancel Button now support international
