Added a dialog to inform a user +when they select comma as a mount point. + +comma as a mount point is disallowed because it sits right next to "dot" button and most people(ie. me) usually press "."(dot) key to mean "present working directory" +but will miss the key and press comma key and start wondering why things arent they way they are supposed to be. +The comma key should have been on the other side of the keyboard!!! + +version 2.0 +add support for adding and deleting keys in luks based volumes in the cli and gui. + +version 3.0 +add support for creating both plain and luks based volumes in both files and partitions. + +version 4.0 +-- host UI blocking code in a different threads to remove/minimize UI freezes +-- use only cryptsetup.so library to interface with cryptsetup +-- allow a user to select what random number generator to use +-- add the ability to create key files +-- Font size and type are now configurable +-- add support for favorite volumes +-- warn in the UI on attempt to delete a key when there is only one key left +-- refuse to attemp to add more keys when key slots are full. +-- implement tray icon to minimize to tray +-- provide a complete docs in a header file on how to interface with libzuluCrypt.so +-- include partitions in /etc/crypttab in a list of system partitions. + +version 4.1.0 +-- minor update, fix bugs comming from mishandling of files and paths with empty spaces in them. + +version 4.2.0 +-- minor update, volume in the favorite list could not be mounted, this version fix it. + +version 4.3.0 +-- fix bugs in zulucrypt-gui triggered by use of double quotes in file and path names +-- fix a bug. fat based volumes mounted with wrong permissions and only root user could write to the opened volume +-- volumw property now displays file system type, volume size, volume size used, volume size available and percentage used. +-- Fix a bug that prevented adding a new key from key file to a luks volume when the existing key was from a passphrase. +-- The password dialog had a bug and did not reset properly when the previous operation involved opening a keyfile. +-- Add an option to close all opened volumes with a single click. +-- Created volumes with extX file systems now use 1% reserved space instead of the default 5%. +-- Encrypted files can now be created using "/dev/random","/dev/urandom" or "/dev/zero" +-- Add a UI option to select a random number generator to use to all dialogs that deals with features that need it. +-- Add option to just minimize or minimize to tray the main window. +-- various other UI and functionality fixes. + +version 4.3.1 +-- A bit more UI effects when opening and closing of volumes. +-- Context menu on opened volumes can now be triggered with CTRL+M or or menu key for better keyboard only management of the tool +-- Device addresses can be given in a form of "/dev/XYZN" or "UUID=bla-bla-bla". +-- various fixes +-- A separate window to manage favorite volumes + +version 4.3.2 +-- ext3/ext4 can not be mounted with user specified permissions and they use the permissions set when the volume was last mounted. + This creates a problem on freshly created volumes because they always end up owned by root. This update fix the problem by setting + permissions everytime a volume is opened in read/write mode. If a volume open with root as owner, then reopen the volume in read/write + mode and permissions will be set properly(0700 with the owner being the user who opened the volume) + + +version 4.3.3 +-- fix a bug that caused improper reading of key files if they were not made up of C strings. +-- fix a bug triggered when attempting to open a plain type volume using aes-cbc-plain cypher( opening plain volume in legacy mode ). + +version 4.3.4 +-- fix a compilation bug on some system +-- support libmount both above and below version 2.18 + +version 4.4.0 +-- lots of code added to increase security and reliability of the tool,updating strongly advised. +-- when creating a volume, use mkfs.xxx tools installed on the system and not hard code a subset of them. +-- use ntfs-3g to mount volumes that use ntfs file system. +-- major cli interface change, run zulucrypt-cli --help for more info. +-- normal users can not create volumes in system partitions but root user now can. system partition is defined as a partition + with active entry(not commented out) in /etc/fstab and /etc/crypttab. + +version 4.5.0 +-- add support for creating backups of luks headers and restoring luks headers +-- add support for first writing random data to partitions before creating an encryped container in them. +-- add support for "/etc/zuluCrypttab". A place to add additional paths to devices to be considered system devices. +-- various security related fixes. +-- add support for encrypting stand alone files + +version 4.5.1 +-- add the ability to manage system volumes in the UI,the GUI must be running from root account for the ability to be enabled +-- by default, volumes are opened in read/write mode. + +version 4.5.2 +-- a quick update to fix a regression in stand alone file encryption. + +version 4.5.3 +-- add a plug in architecture. Its now possible to send zulucrypt-cli passphrases through different means, default plugins can retrieve + passphrases from kde kwallet,gnome keyring,gpg encryped key files and a combination of keyfile and passphrase. +-- show a dialog to warn a user the volume will be opened in read only mode when whey tick the option for the first time. +-- passphrases are sent to the back end in a more secure way using unix local socket. +-- small attempt to hide passphrases from ps command if they are passed through the command line argument. +-- passphrases stored in kde kwallet can be managed from within zulucrypt-gui if their support is enabled at build time. + +version 4.6.0 +-- add support for opening and closing of truecrypt volumes,this feature need cryptsetup >= 1.6.0 + +version 4.6.1 +-- fix a regression that caused volumes presented by their UUID not to working + +version 4.6.2 +-- add config option to not build KDE and/or GNOME support even when the system has support for them +-- add support for LVM volumes +-- add support for consulting udev in addition to fstab when deciding if a system is system or not +-- add tcplay as an optional dependency to allow creation of truecrypt volumes +-- fix bug:truecrypt volumes with multiple ciphers did not close properly +-- fix bug:volumes did not close properly if mount point had a space character among others in it +-- feature added:users who are members of "zulumount-exec" group will have their volumes opened with "exec" mount option. + This will allow them to be able to execute commands from the mount point.The default and recommended option is not mount with "noexec" option. +-- feature added:A "-M" option is added that will create a publicly accessible "mirror" of a mount point in "/run/share" from the private + original one created in "/run/media/$USER.This option is there to allow a user to mount a volume and have it accessible from other users of the system. +-- zuluMount-gui now adds and removed from its list as devices are added and removed from the system.A right click context menu option can be set to allow + unencrypted volumes to also be automounted. +-- add a command line option to zuluMount-gui to start it up without showing the GUI + +version 4.6.3 +-- fix a build issue on some systems +-- when automounting devices,use device LABEL if present +-- its now possible to create truecrypt volumes using a keyfile +-- its now possible to open a truecrypt hidden volume +-- add explicit support md raid based volumes +-- add context menu entry in zuluMount-gui to open shared mount point folder +-- its now possible to initiate volume mounting process of volumes in files by drag and drop them on zuluCrypt-gui and zuluMount-gui UI. +-- various bug fixes. +-- add ability to create and open truecrypt hidden volumes in the GUI + +version 4.6.4 +-- fix a build issue on some systems + +version 4.6.5 +-- add support for opening truecrypt system volumes +-- add internatiolization support +-- zuluMount-gui is now aware of volumes that are mounted or unmounted outside of it.This gives zuluMount-gui an ability to automount + newly attached devices. +-- encrypted volumes that reside in files can be opened simply by drag and drop them in zuluCrypt-gui or zuluMount-gui windows + +version 4.6.6 +-- fix a regression,retrieving keys from kwallet using volume UUID broke. +-- volumes in gnome are now stored in libsecret and no longer in libgnome-keyring +-- add a GUI window in zuluCrypt-gui to manage keys in libsecret wallet,internal wallet and kde kwallet. +-- add an internal system that can securely store keys independently of kde kwallet and gnome libsecret.Useful to those who + want to store keys securely but dont want gnome or kde dependencies +-- add compile time option to use mount points in user home directory instead of "/run/media/private" +-- NOTE: changes in management of wallets are not backward compatible and hence volumes will have to be readded after the update.My + apologies for the inconvenience. +-- drop support for updating /etc/mtab and remove libmount as a required dependency +-- add a Qt5 port,see build instrunctions on how to build Qt5 version + +version 4.6.7 +-- fix packaging issues +-- fix a regression on zuluMount-gui that caused a hang when checking for properties of an opened volume opened by a different user + +version 4.6.8 +-- store partition id in wallets by device hardware id on volumes that do not have UUID( non LUKS volumes ) +-- add support for exfat file system. +-- add support for creating a backup and restoring from backup truecrypt volume headers(tcplay >=2.0.0 required) +-- add a simple CLI tool(zuluSafe-cli) that can be used to store multiple files securely in a single wallet file. +-- add support in zuluMount for opening a plain volume at a user specified offset.This ability will allow hidden volume type + functionality.In one of the prompts in zuluMount-gui,press "ctrl+f" to bring up the dialog that accepts the offset. +-- add support for multi device btrfs volumes. + +version 4.6.9 +-- move config files to "/etc/zuluCrypt" from "/etc" +-- add a config file "/etc/zuluCrypt/fs_options" where default file system mount options can be specified per UUID. + -format is:one entry per line,example entry: UUID="abcf" uid=500 +-- fix a bug,if udev is enabled,mounted image files were always treated as system volumes. +-- use libgcrypt for stand alone file encryption instead of cryptsetup.Newer stand alone encrypted files will have an extension of ".zC" to + distinguish them from previous ones that use ".zc".Older versions of zuluCrypt(<4.6.9) will not be able to open encrypted files that + end with ".zC". +-- add an option in zuluCrypt GUI to specify a truecrypt volume type when saving or restoring a truecrypt header from a backup header file + +version 4.7.0 +-- various changes and improvements +-- add a plugin named "steghide" that retrives passphrases embeded in other files using "steghide" tool. +-- add a plugin named "luks" that allows opening a LUKS volume using a backup/detached header. +-- add a plugin named "tomb" that allows opening of LUKS volumes from tomb project using keys securely stored in image files. + +version 4.7.1 +-- fix a build issue in gcc 4.9 |
