Patch 0.12.2

Vulnerability disclosure

This release contains a fix for a security vulnerability. We recommend updating as soon as possible.

UnblvR discovered that the application used an insecure random number generator. This could allow an attacker to predict the random numbers generated by the application, which could lead to a variety of security issues.

While we believe the risk of exploitation is low, we recommend that you update the token on your original device:

1. Update the app to the latest version.
2. Go to the Devices screen at the “More” section.
3. Make sure that your device is named “Initial device”. If it’s not, do the steps on that initial device instead. If you don’t have access to that device anymore, revoke the access for that device by tapping it in the list below.
4. Tap on the “Initial device”. The app will ask you if you want to refresh the token. Tap “Confirm”.

Only the token of the initial device might be vulnerable. Tokens of other devices and backups encryption key are generated by your server with a secure random number generator.

Servers created with this version and newer will not be vulnerable to this.

We would like to thank UnblvR for the responsible disclosure of the vulnerability.

• Allow refreshing device token for Server API (#565)

Migration to the new disk management system

We’ve introduced a new system to control where your services’ data is stored, but an initial migration is needed. Without it, you won’t be able to move services between volumes.

We highly encourage you to manually back up your data from the server before migrating.

To use the new disk management features properly you have to perform the migration. Go to the “More” tab and tap on the “Start migration” button. This migration is also known as “binds migration” in our internals, and you may see this term if you encounter an error related to this system. If you do, please report it to us, and we will help.

Our own F-Droid repo, nightly builds and desktops

From now on, our app also deployed on our own F-Droid repository, allowing you to get our builds faster.

https://fdroid.selfprivacy.org

This repository contains two apps: SelfPrivacy and SelfPrivacy Nightly. The first one contains release builds, and the second one is for development builds. They may contain bugs, but will allow you to test our new features before release. All three Android builds (Official F-Droid, our own F-Droid and Nightly) are independent and can be installed simultaneously.

You can also try out our experimental desktop builds, available for Linux as Flatpak, Windows and macOS. https://git.selfprivacy.org/kherel/selfprivacy.org.app/releases/tag/0.7.0 Please keep in mind that we cannot guarantee that the app will launch on your distro, and that we have not adapted our UI for desktops yet.

Version 0.6.0 Release

Changes:

• Added support for server access from SelfPrivacy apps installed on several devices.
• You can now create recovery token to regain the access to the server if you lose your device or the app’s data.
• You can now connect to an existing server, instead of creating a new one.
• Initial support for Material Design 3 (Material You).
• App now uses your system colors on Android 12 (Material You), Windows 10 (accent color) and Linux (GTK colors). While SelfPrivacy works ok on desktops, we won’t officially release desktop versions until we refactor our UI to support big screens.
• Minor bug fixes.

Version 0.5.0 Release

Changes:

• DKIM key is now deployed to DNS during server setup.
• Step 1 of server setup (DNS checks) is now faster.
• New DNS management screen: checks current records and lets recreate them if something is wrong.
• User creation and deletion is now more responsive.
• User list is now synchronized with the server.
• New SSH key management screen. SSH keys can now be uploaded for any user, including root.
• Root SSH key generation is removed, you can now upload your own keys.
