Bleed cancels content padding so the bar sits at the scroll top; sticky stays on under 900px/mobile instead of scrolling away; active tab scrolls into view on click/hash.

The Help panel now replaces guided tours with a right-side panel displaying project supporters and GitHub sponsorship links. The previous tutorial features, including spotlight tutorials and the floating help FAB, have been removed. Additionally, updates to the sponsors update process and relevant documentation have been made to reflect these changes.
Bring stable signal outbound gate hardening (initiator_pending_enrollment),
Web Remote SignedId verify, and open-issue hotfixes onto dev while keeping
the 3.4.13 development version baseline.
- Added UX 3.5 as the default console shell, featuring a full-list sidebar, topbar, and customizable themes (Dark/Light/Custom).
- Updated documentation to reflect the new UX 3.5 shell.
- Removed legacy Desktop Mode and Beta 3.1 styles, ensuring a streamlined user experience.
- Enhanced language support for new theme options across multiple languages.
- Fixed OIDC client login issues by proxying callback URLs to the Go API.
This update improves the overall user interface and experience, aligning with modern design standards.
Panel Redirect URLs on :5000/:5443 used to 404, so auth-query never completed. Proxy the callback to Go, validate the path in Settings, and document the fix.
Copy panel password hashes into missing Go users on SQLite dual-DB so RustDesk client login matches the console; clarify LDAP sub-tab discoverability and provider-bound hints.
After Keycloak/IdP callback on the Go API port, the browser now lands on the
Node panel session endpoint instead of hitting Go auth middleware. Adds Panel
URL setting, return-url preservation, login error UX, and docs.
Fixes#242. Replace 24h JWT-only client tokens with configurable DB sessions (default 7 days, sliding renewal up to 30 days) and panel settings under Authentication -> RustDesk clients.
Add folder/direct-device/strategy assignment from User Management, clearer Pro vs Remote Operator labeling, optional restricted device scope mode, and Go/Node scope parity.
Add PUBLIC_SERVER_ID, PUBLIC_RELAY_SERVER, and PUBLIC_API_URL with Settings UI,
unified endpoint resolution across Dashboard/Keys, and fallbacks via PANEL_PUBLIC_HOST.
Ship mesh layer as default-on with updater/installer MESH_ENABLED=Y injection,
Settings groups/recordings UI, device power and filter UX, relay multiplexing,
WoL wake fallback, mesh RBAC permissions, and REST automation docs.
Extend MeshCentral compat with share grants, session recording (.mcrec),
TCP/UDP port relay (p=14), device power API, panel settings and device menu
actions, view-only guest remote access, and i18n across all locales.
Added new localization entries for multiple languages, including mobile navigation labels and input modes (touch, touchpad, keyboard, special keys). This update improves user experience by providing comprehensive support for mobile users and ensuring consistent messaging across various languages.
Enhanced localization files for various languages (ar, cs, da, de, en, es, fi, hi, hu, id, it, ja, ko, nb, nl, pl, pt) by adding new UI elements and confirmation prompts. This update improves user experience by providing consistent messaging across different languages for settings search, connection strategies, and user authentication options.
Added a new API endpoint to list uploaded background images, enhancing the branding settings page with a background image library. Implemented UI components for selecting and displaying background images, including improved handling of background size and position. Updated tests to validate the new functionality and ensure proper integration with existing branding features.
Added a new branding hero section to the settings page, featuring a visually appealing layout with a kicker, title, and description. Updated styles for various branding components, including buttons and toolbars, to improve aesthetics and responsiveness. Enhanced background selectors and notifications for better user experience during branding updates.
Added functions to load and apply appearance settings dynamically based on user configuration. Introduced a search feature in the settings UI to filter through settings sections. Enhanced the branding readability alert to provide feedback on potential readability issues. Updated the backend to support a versioned appearance model and improved the branding API to include appearance data.
Implemented a new upload status UI for background images, including progress indicators and error handling. Added CSS styles for upload status messages and integrated them into the settings view. Enhanced JavaScript functions to update the UI based on upload progress and completion, improving user feedback during the upload process.
- Introduced a new glass surface effect for cards, modals, and forms, enhancing the UI with a frosted glass appearance.
- Added localization strings for the glass surface feature in multiple languages.
- Implemented settings for enabling/disabling the glass effect, adjusting color, blur, and opacity through the settings interface.
- Updated CSS variables to support the new glass surface styling.
- Added a modular studio layout with a live preview panel, autosave, server-side appearance profiles, and a built-in theme gallery.
- Expanded Google Fonts picker and enabled custom font uploads (woff2/ttf).
- Updated the appearance tab for real-time changes without full page reloads and introduced a read-only mode for users without edit permissions.
- Improved localization by updating language files with new strings for branding and appearance features.
- Redesigned the updates tab to adopt a Windows 11-inspired layout, improving user experience.
- Added a hero section for update status with dynamic messaging based on update state.
- Implemented new CSS styles for better visual consistency and responsiveness.
- Updated JavaScript functions to manage update status rendering and alerts effectively.
- Enhanced localization support by adding new language strings for the updates section.
- Introduced email notifications for help requests, allowing operators assigned to device folders or groups to receive alerts.
- Moved SMTP configuration to **Settings → Email**, including options for host, credentials, and alert email.
- Updated console layout for better usability and removed legacy SMTP automation tab.
- Added `nodemailer` as a dependency for email handling.
Introduce bump-version.js with CI workflows for patch bumps on dev and
stable releases on main, plus panel and installer UI to choose stable vs
development GitHub update branches.
The panel updater assumed a native install with Go source on disk. In
Compose/GHCR mode it now uses the embedded image commit, clears stale
binary markers, and directs operators to pull new container images instead.
Restore POST /api/peers/{id}/restore removed in a9e217c, add signal tests
that managed mode queues pending_device_* while locked does not, and move
RustDesk enrollment controls to Settings with full approval (folder, groups,
tag picker) wired through the registrations flow.
Expose global connection strategy in the web panel with systemd/Docker persistence, extend server health diagnostics, enforce org network policy in the signal handler, and document when relay fallback is expected vs misconfiguration.
Let server.config admins edit .env, blocklist, and systemd units from the
panel with backups on save and service restart via the existing updater.

Redesign the console backup into a complete .tar.gz disaster-recovery bundle that can be restored on a fresh machine to bring the entire server back online. Adds zero-dependency tar.gz writer/reader (backupArchive.js), logical dumpAllTables/importAllTables for SQLite and PostgreSQL, and packs the console database, auth.db, .env, .session_secret, branding uploads, and Go server identity (Ed25519 keys, .api_key, db_v2.sqlite3) plus a recovery README. Restore auto-detects archive vs legacy JSON snapshot, supports per-component selection (database/uploads/secrets/.env/Go DB) with restart-required signaling, and warns that the archive contains secrets. EN/PL/ZH i18n added.

Add console wallpaper, login page branding (title/subtitle/background/footer), global agent download page branding, footer/copyright with 'Powered by BetterDesk' toggle, and custom CSS injection. Includes background image upload route (8MB), sanitization for colors/gradients/CSS, dynamic theme CSS for app and login pages, sidebar attribution, and EN/PL/ZH i18n keys.
This commit was made possible thanks to Insolve.
Bump golang.org/x/crypto to v0.52.0 and x/sys to v0.45.0 in betterdesk-server, x/sys to v0.45.0 in betterdesk-agent, and aiohttp to >=3.10.11 in the rest-webhook bridge. Validated clean via govulncheck.
Add an explicit Go server rebuild path to the in-app updater so security/library updates actually reach the running binary: updateService now marks the server binary stale when the source changed but a non-critical rebuild/deploy step failed, exposes getServerBinaryStatus() and rebuildServerBinary(), and surfaces a warning banner plus a Rebuild button in the settings update panel. New REST endpoints GET/POST /api/settings/updates/server-binary/{status,rebuild} guarded by server.config permission. i18n keys added across all locales.
This commit was made possible thanks to Insolve.
Privilege separation across all installers so the long-running services no longer run with full administrative rights:
betterdesk.sh: installer keeps root but systemd units now run as a dedicated unprivileged 'betterdesk' system account by default (auto-created via ensure_service_user). Added full systemd hardening for the Go server (NoNewPrivileges, ProtectSystem=strict, ProtectHome, PrivateTmp, ReadWritePaths) and light hardening for the Node.js console. chown migrates existing root-owned data to the service account on update. Opt-out via --run-as-root / BETTERDESK_RUN_AS_ROOT=1; custom account via BETTERDESK_SERVICE_USER. Minimal mode covered too.
betterdesk.ps1: NSSM services now run under their per-service low-privilege virtual accounts (NT SERVICE\<service>) instead of LocalSystem, with scoped icacls grants on the install/data dirs (Set-ServiceLeastPrivilege helper). Applied to the Go server, Node.js console and minimal-mode service. Opt-out via -RunAsRoot / BETTERDESK_RUN_AS_ROOT=1.
Docker: verified already privilege-separated (supervisord drops both programs to user=betterdesk; multi-container images drop via su-exec).
Also bundles in-progress changes to the Go server API, Node.js console services and Docker compose/Dockerfiles.
This commit was made possible thanks to Insolve.
UI: group chip buttons changed to icon-only (matching folder chips), Create Group tile styling unified with Create Folder, old .group-chip-action CSS replaced with unified .chip-action class.
Go server: peerResponse and singlePeerResponse now return status as int (1=active, 0=disabled) instead of string, added status_text for admin panel backward compat. Fixes RustDesk client crash 'type String is not a subtype of type int?'.
Go server: new handleUsersWithClientFallback — detects RustDesk client requests to /api/users and returns current user without requiring user.view permission. Fixes disappearing folders/groups caused by _getUsers() 403 short-circuiting _pull().
Node.js: normalisePeer updated to use status_text fallback for status_tier.
Branding: RustDesk Server Management -> BetterDesk Server Management across themes, i18n, settings. Console version bumped to 3.0.0.
This commit was made possible thanks to Insolve.
DB: Use current_schema() when checking columns for deferred index creation and add exception handling to skip index creation if column is absent (avoids cross-schema false positives and race errors).
Signal: Harden isSameNetwork by normalizing IPv4, handling mapped addresses, adding detailed debug logs for loopback/private/subnet checks, and logging LAN detection failures in the RequestRelay handler.
Auth/API: Add tighter debug logging and trimming for /api/login (redacting passwords), and reject empty/invalid usernames early in authenticate() to address Issue #104.
UI: Add save button feedback (spinner, disable/restore), extra logging and error handling when saving org settings, and make logo image URL input editable by removing readonly.
Add typography support and a text-based logo option plus several TLS/connectivity improvements. Introduces a new font service (web-nodejs/services/fontService.js) to search, download and serve Google Fonts for self-hosting, new API routes for font management, and client-side font picker UI/logic (settings.js) with CSS (pages.css, main.css) and i18n entries (en/pl/zh). BrandingService now supports logo text/accent and font heading/body and includes generated font CSS. Views (login/sidebar) updated to render text logos and a new theme (themes/insolve.json) added. Server and TLS updates: API server now prefers TLS on the API port when valid certs exist, and dual-mode listener in tls.go adds a short peek timeout to avoid deadlocks with RustDesk clients.
- Replace release-based check (always 404) with commit-SHA tracking
- Track deployed state via data/.update_sha file
- Detect changes across all components (console, server, agent, scripts)
- Show recent commits, component breakdown, and file counts
- Auto-update console + script files, manual badge for Go server
- Pre-update backup with SHA-tracked restore
- Support npm install when package.json changes
- Service restart for console (auto) and Go server (on demand)
- 15 new i18n keys in EN/PL/ZH for update UI
- CSS for commit list, component rows, rebuild warning
Introduce a SessionManager for relay-based remote sessions in the Tauri MGMT client: new SessionCommand API, start/stop/session input routing, clipboard/recording/quality controls, and notification read/dismiss state. Wire AppState with new mutexes and show main window on startup. CI: add SBOM generation (anchore) and Trivy vulnerability scan steps. Misc: change console Docker DB path, large README/CHANGELOG updates (chat E2E, unattended access/WOL, i18n expansion, CDAP/SDK docs), and many web-nodejs assets/locales/routes/views/services and server-side changes.
Replace AGPL-3.0 with Apache License 2.0 across the repository and update related documentation and metadata. Remove legacy RustDesk-specific architecture docs, delete deprecated Dockerfile.hbbr, rename Dockerfile.hbbs → Dockerfile.server and update docker-compose / install scripts to use it. Add Apache license headers to protobuf defs, remove obsolete web service (hbbsApi.js), and adjust README, CONTRIBUTING and PROJECT_STRUCTURE to reflect the license and commercial/clean-room notices. Includes a small formatting tweak in client_api_handlers.go.
Add RustDesk-compatible client API and telemetry support and introduce a single-container Docker build. New client_api_handlers.go implements /api/login, /api/login-options, /api/logout, /api/currentUser, /api/ab, /api/heartbeat, /api/sysinfo and /api/sysinfo_ver with TOTP flow and an in-memory TFA session store; auth middleware and Server registration updated accordingly. Database interface and SQLite/Postgres implementations gain UpdatePeerSysinfo (with tests), audit actions for sysinfo, and handleGetPeer now returns live_online/live_status. Also add Dockerfile, docker-compose.single.yml, supervisord entrypoint, UI fixes (QR color inversion, 403 error view), labels file, README updates, and other ancillary changes.
