It includes lists of new features, changes, and bug fixes sorted by release. For a product description, installation notes, registration information, and contact information, please refer to SecureCRT_README.txt (downloaded with this installation). Changes in SecureCRT 9.3 (Official) -- November 3, 2022 ------------------------------------------------------- Vulnerability addressed: - An external report claims that when using a brute-force attack, sensitive data, such as passwords, stored in the SecureCRT or SecureFX configuration without a configuration passphrase or with a weak configuration passphrase can be cracked in a relatively short amount of time. Direct access to the configuration data is required in order to exploit this vulnerability. Change: - Windows: When the command-line utilities are installed with the SecureCRT standalone installer, the install path is added to the PATH environment variable. Changes in SecureCRT 9.3 (Beta 5) -- October 25, 2022 ----------------------------------------------------- Changes: - Windows: Allow the use of ssh-rsa and ssh-dss algorithms for signature verification when FIPS mode is enabled. Bug Fixes: - When authenticating with a public key that was invalid for the remote host, the key was retried twice before falling back to the next authentication method. - If a session file was renamed or deleted on disk while the application was running, raising the context menu for the session from within the Session Manager could have resulted in a crash. - If the scrollback buffer size was set to zero, attempting to extend a text selection into the non-existent scrollback resulted in a crash. - When an existing configuration was migrated to the new encryption standard, Session Logon Actions may have failed to migrate and could have been reset to default settings. - Keyword highlighting changes for a connected session were not applied to the current session view. - Windows: When connecting to an RDP host from a script and an invalid credentials file was referenced, the RDP tab could not be closed. - Command-line tools: If the host key algorithm preference list was specified on the command line, the algorithm order was not always honored. Changes in SecureCRT 9.3 (Beta 4) -- September 29, 2022 ------------------------------------------------------- Bug Fixes: - When merging a personal data configuration folder back into the main configuration, the operation could have failed due to a mismatch of session files that should have been ignored. - When SecureCRT was started from the command line with a script that automatically reconnects the session, an error stating "Only one script can be run at a time" would be displayed if the session was disconnected. - Windows: Under certain circumstances, if a script was cancelled during a sleep operation, SecureCRT could have crashed once the sleep operation completed. - Windows: When running grep with color options enabled on a large amount of output, the SecureCRT UI could have been slow to respond. - Windows: When multiple top-level SecureCRT windows were open, if the Command Window was toggled on in one of the windows, the right-click context menu could have failed to display in various locations. - Windows: If a large number of tabs were open, causing the tab widths to be truncated, renaming a tab label via a script could have resulted in the tab size expanding to full width, then resizing to the correct truncated size. - Windows: When moving the position of an authentication method using keyboard shortcuts, if the up or down button became disabled (due to the method being the topmost or bottom most position), the dialog itself lost keyboard focus. Changes in SecureCRT 9.3 (Beta 3) -- August 16, 2022 ---------------------------------------------------- Bug Fixes: - Under certain cases, if a script was cancelled during a sleep operation, SecureCRT could crash once the sleep completed. - If the "Preserve window size when opening sessions" option was enabled, connecting to a session that reused a disconnected tab caused the window to unexpectedly resize. - When launching the application with a new configuration, the Quick Connect dialog was not displayed at startup as expected. - If there were a large number of tabs open, causing the tab widths to be truncated, renaming a tab label via a script could have resulted in the tab size expanding to full width, then resizing to the correct truncated size. - When the application license was stored in a license file (.lic) and the license data was included in a configuration export, importing the license on another machine may not have worked as expected. - Windows: When starting the application using an alternate configuration path (via the /F command-line option), if the Global.ini file in the alternate location was incomplete, the Global.ini file in the default configuration location would have been reset. - Mac: When "Scale the font" resize method was configured for a session, the text displayed in the terminal view could become unreadable with certain window sizes. - Mac: On Monterey and later systems, if the application crashed and produced a core dump, the crash reporter dialog reported that no core dump was available. Changes in SecureCRT 9.3 (Beta 2) -- July 19, 2022 -------------------------------------------------- New Feature: - Windows: The Global Options and Session Options dialogs can be resized and the size is remembered. Changes: - In the Session Options dialog, the column widths for the Keywords table in the Keyword Highlighting category are remembered. - The Manage Agent Keys dialog can be resized and the size is remembered. Bug Fixes: - Windows: The Help Search tab did not work. - Windows: When running a Perl script, setting the Screen object's IgnoreCase property to true had no effect. - Windows: When running a Perl script, the IgnoreCase parameter in the ReadString and WaitForString methods was interpreted as the timeout parameter. - Windows: If the "Enable alternate screen switching" option was disabled while the "Add alternate screen output to scrollback" sub-option was enabled, the sub-option was shown as enabled after re-opening the Session Options dialog. Changes in SecureCRT 9.3 (Beta 1) -- June 28, 2022 -------------------------------------------------- New Features: - Added an option to check for updates automatically at startup. - Added the ability to specify saved credentials in "Send" Logon Actions. - Added a global option that preserves the application window size when a session is opened. - For keyword highlighting, the "Match case" option can now be specified per keyword. Previously, it could only be specified for the entire keyword list. - For keyword highlighting, attributes such as bold and reverse video can now be specified for individual keywords. - Added the ability to resize the Keyword List Properties dialog. - Added an option that forces a prompt for the hostname when the session connects. - Added the ability to disable individual local and remote port forwards. - Added the ability to duplicate a session in the Session Manager or Connect dialog. - Added the ability to duplicate local and remote port forwards. - Added the ability to correlate a PKCS#11 private key to an OpenSSH Trusted Certificate for public-key authentication. -
