This commit introduces two meta tags to strengthen the application's
security posture and enhance user privacy, following best practices and
OWASP recommendations.
- Add Content-Security-Policy (CSP) to strictly to strictly control
which resources the application is allowed, mitigating the risk of
code injection attacks such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).
- Add `referrer` meta tag to prevent the users' browser from sending the
page's address, or referrer, when navigating to another site, thereby
enhancing user privacy.
This commit introduces several improvements to the macOS update process,
primarily focusing on enhancing security and reliability:
- Add data integrity checks to ensure downloaded updates haven't been
tampered with.
- Optimize update progress logging in `streamWithProgress` by limiting
amount of logs during the download process.
- Improve resource management by ensuring proper closure of file
read/write streams.
- Add retry logic with exponential back-off during file access to handle
occassionally seen file system preparation delays on macOS.
- Improve decision-making based on user responses.
- Improve clarity and informativeness of log messages.
- Update error dialogs for better user guidance when updates fail to
download, unexpected errors occur or the installer can't be opened.
- Add handling for unexpected errors during the update process.
- Move to asynchronous functions for more efficient operation.
- Move to scoped imports for better code clarity.
- Update `Readable` stream type to a more modern variant in Node.
- Refactor `ManualUpdater` for improved separation of concerns.
- Document the secure update process, and log directory locations.
- Rename files to more accurately reflect their purpose.
- Add `.DS_Store` in `.gitignore` to avoid unintended files in commits.
- Migrate to `electron-log` v5.X.X, centralizing log files to adhere to
best-practices.
- Add critical event logging in the log file.
- Replace `ElectronLog` type with `LogFunctions` for better abstraction.
- Unify log handling in `desktop-runtime-error` by removing
`renderer.log` due to `electron-log` v5 changes.
- Update and extend logger interfaces, removing 'I' prefix and adding
common log levels to abstract `electron-log` completely.
- Move logger interfaces to the application layer as it's cross-cutting
concern, meanwhile keeping the implementations in the infrastructure
layer.
- Introduce `useLogger` hook for easier logging in Vue components.
- Simplify `WindowVariables` by removing nullable properties.
- Improve documentation to clearly differentiate between desktop and web
versions, outlining specific features of each.
