This release brings a set of improvements and fixes in our Linux and Android | ||
support, with contributions from [@kaftejiman][] and [@DoranekoSystems][]. We've | ||
also improved how we talk to Apple devices across the network. | ||
|
||
Here's what's new: | ||
|
||
- **linux**: Improve injector to avoid risky code swaps with memfd regions | ||
(thanks to [@kaftejiman][]). Memfd regions may not be writable, and unlike | ||
regular regions, `ptrace()` won't help us in case of a missing writable bit. | ||
|
||
- **linux**: Relax injector's libc matching for Android (thanks to | ||
[@kaftejiman][]). This means we can still match them with bind-mounted APEXes. | ||
|
||
- **linux**: Optimize `NativePointer#readVolatile()` (JS) / `gum_memory_read()` | ||
(C) for Linux/Android (thanks to [@DoranekoSystems][]). By making use of | ||
`process_vm_readv()` if the kernel supports it, we can avoid parsing memory | ||
maps. This means instead of being well above 1000x slower compared to direct | ||
access, it is now only about 1.45x slower. | ||
|
||
- **fruity**: Support networked lockdown for `CoreDevice`. We need to provide | ||
the remote unlock host key as part of the `RSDCheckin`. Kudos to [@as0ler][] | ||
and [@mrmacete][] for reporting and helping get to the bottom of this one. | ||
