Replace the same-origin checksum with a detached Ed25519 signature
(SHA256SUMS.sig) verified against a pinned public key before extraction,
closing #308: a compromised download mirror can no longer certify a
tampered binary. The signed manifest also binds the release version,
rejecting a forced downgrade to an older signed build.
Verification is mandatory and non-bypassable on the official download path;
custom CLOAKBROWSER_DOWNLOAD_URL mirrors keep the legacy skippable checksum.
Silent auto-update is preserved for everyone because only a constant public
key is pinned, not per-version hashes. Older installed wrappers are
unaffected — the version= line is ignored by their checksum parser.
Python uses cryptography; JS uses node:crypto. Adds tamper, downgrade, and
fail-closed tests in both languages.
Patchright scored identically to plain Playwright on reCAPTCHA v3 (the
binary handles stealth at C++ level) while breaking proxy auth and
add_init_script (#27). Removed the backend param, CLOAKBROWSER_BACKEND
env var, the patchright extra, and the two backend-specific tests.
Stock Playwright is now the only backend.
Route SOCKS5/SOCKS5h proxies via --proxy-server Chrome arg instead of
Playwright's proxy dict (which rejects SOCKS5 with credentials).
Handles string URLs, Playwright dicts, IPv6, bypass lists.
SOCKS5 geoip exit IP resolution uses socks-proxy-agent (optional peer
dep). Falls back to DNS if not installed.
Spawns a separate Chrome process per unique fingerprint seed, all behind
a single port (9222). Clients specify seeds and fingerprint params via
query string on the CDP URL:
connect_over_cdp("http://host:9222?fingerprint=12345&timezone=Asia/Tokyo")
Supports all --fingerprint-* flags as query params, geoip=true for
auto timezone/locale from proxy IP, and proxy= for per-process proxies.
- Rewrite bin/cloakserve from 57-line wrapper to aiohttp CDP multiplexer
- Add ChromePool with per-seed process management and port allocation
- Bidirectional WebSocket proxy for CDP traffic
- URL rewriting for /json/version, /json/list, and WS paths
- Rename _build_args -> build_args, _maybe_resolve_geoip -> maybe_resolve_geoip
- Add aiohttp + websockets to serve optional deps
- Dockerfile installs .[serve] extras
- Add 20 unit tests for cloakserve (param parsing, CLI args, URL rewriting)
Adds install, info, update, and clear-cache subcommands with visible
download progress. Python: `python -m cloakbrowser install`. JavaScript:
`npx cloakbrowser install`. Useful for Dockerfiles where silent
first-use downloads are hard to debug. Closes#43.
- publish.yml: automated PyPI/npm/Docker on v* tag push; OIDC trusted publishing for PyPI/npm; Docker signed with Cosign keyless + provenance attested
- attest-release.yml: manual workflow to attest binary release assets via Sigstore (actions/attest-build-provenance@v2)
- pyproject.toml: add dev extras (pytest, pytest-asyncio)
