    Ouro em alta: vale a pena investir?

    CBN
    Luiz Gustavo Medina explica que o ouro teve forte alta nos últimos anos, puxada principalmente pela compra dos bancos centrais, que reduziram a dependência do dólar e de títulos americanos. Apesar disso, ele acredita que o ouro já subiu demais e pode até cair.

    support default scheme customization

    support default scheme customization
    
    This allows the user to specify a scheme that should be used to try to open a bookmark if the bookmark is missing a scheme. E.g. `www.example.com` will be changed to `http://www.example.com` or `https://www.example.com` automatically before an open/browse is attempted.
    
    Originally this patch simply forced opening with https, but it has since been modified to default to either http or https, at the user's preference. The default scheme will continue to be http, for now.
    
    Forcing https by default was a suggestion based mainly on my own use case. I have 3,678 bookmarks. 3,670 use https and 7 use http. Of those 7, at least a couple are dead links and a couple are http-only to prove a point.
    
    I keep "https only" on in my daily driver browser (Firefox) and my alternate browser (Chromium). I can still view http sites if I click through the warning.
    
    I did a few lazyweb searches and found a presentation from the 26th USENIX in 2017:
    
      https://www.usenix.org/conference/usenixsecurity17/technical-sessions/presentation/felt
    
    In the video on that page they cover how https is more often available, used, and even defaulted to for many websites, somewhere around 50-90% depending on how you measure it and where you get your data (and this is back in 2017).
    
    That presentation is about a paper by Felt et al titled "Measuring HTTPS Adoption on the Web":
    
      https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/usenixsecurity17/sec17-felt.pdf
    
    One of their data sources is MAWI, so I just peeked at MAWI's latest charts:
    
      https://mawi.wide.ad.jp/mawi/samplepoint-F/2025/202510241400.html
    
    I did some super simple math. I can't say if this is at all valid, but I just compared the first two numbers where I saw http and https and found http is 14.4% of the total and https is 85.6%. Looks like I was comparing ip.tcp.http packets vs. ip.tcp.https packets. So that's something there to look at, I guess.
    
    (83894509 ip https packets + 14072651 ip http packets ) = 97967160 total packets
    
    14072651 ÷ 97967160 = 0.144 = 14.4% http packets
    
    83894509 ÷ 97967160 = 0.856 = 85.6% https packets
    
    MAWI data snippet:
    
    ```

     ip           288108851 ( 86.06%)     307918329080 ( 84.59%)   1068.76

    ```
    
    Anyway, sorry for all this noise, it's really just breadcrumbs in case someone wants to do actual research.
    
    Also I'm really enjoying buku so far. Thank you for sharing it!
    
    Unit tests pass locally.

    DIR: don't display invalid data with devices

    DIR: don't display invalid data with devices
    
    When doing `DIR NUL` findfirst will actually return success
    with an attribute indicating a device exists with that name.
    MS-DOS shows 'File not found' in this case, but FreeCOM
    (and also Comcom64) can display invalid data, so let's
    correct that. Since the required constant FA_DEVICE isn't
    always present in `dos.h`, let's define it when necessary.
    
    [https://github.com/FDOS/freecom/issues/181]
    
    Before (C: is MFS, D: is FAT16):
    ~~~
    C:\>dir nul
     Volume in drive C is IR DXXXXS C
     Directory of C:\

             1 file(s)              0 bytes

    cpuspeed: add NDIS v4 speed patch suitable for WFW 3.11

    cpuspeed: add NDIS v4 speed patch suitable for WFW 3.11
    
    WFW 3.11 uses a similar timing loop as Win9x in NDIS.386 and so will hang
    during startup on a blank screen on a machine with a fast CPU.
    
    Fortunately due to its shared history it is possible to take the existing
    NDIS v1/v3 source and adapt it for WFW 3.11. Add the updated source as a
    new NDIS v4 source, include it PATCH_CPU_SPEED_NDIS_ALL, and update files.c
    to patch NDIS.386 if detected.
    
    Resolves: https://github.com/JHRobotics/patcher9x/issues/23

    Add Ampersand Ligature Variant for `ss03`

    Add Ampersand Ligature Variant for `ss03`
    
    The feature `ss03` changes the ampersand to the traditional style.
    When this feature is enabled the restyling of the ligature form
    `ampersand_ampersand.liga` is not used because it does not exist.
    
    This commit adds the part glyph `_part.ampersand.ss03`, adds the
    ligature glyph `ampersand_ampersand.liga.ss03`, and modifies the
    `ss03` feature to use the newly added ligature when the feature is
    enabled.
    
    The part glyph was only created to be a component for the newly
    added ligature, like `_part.ampersand` is for
    `ampersand_ampersand.liga`.

    Linux/FreeBSD: Prevent mounting volumes on system directories and PATH (CVE-2025-23021, reported by SivertPL @__tfr)
    
    Added security checks to prevent mounting VeraCrypt volumes on system directories (like /usr/bin) or directories in the user's PATH, which could theoretically allow execution of malicious binaries instead of legitimate system binaries.
    
    Key changes:
    - Block mounting on protected system directories (/usr, /bin, /lib, etc.)
      This restriction cannot be overridden
    - Block mounting on directories present in user's PATH environment variable
      This can be overridden with --allow-insecure-mount flag
    - Add visual warnings (red border, "[INSECURE MODE]") when mounting on PATH directories is allowed
    - Handle symlinks properly when checking paths
    - Add new error messages for blocked mount points
    
    To override PATH-based restrictions only (system directories remain protected):
    veracrypt --allow-insecure-mount [options] volume mountpoint
    
    Security Impact: Low to Medium
    The attack requires either:
    - User explicitly choosing a system directory as mount point instead of using VeraCrypt's default mount points
    - Or attacker having both filesystem access to modify favorites configuration AND knowledge of the volume password
    Default mount points are not affected by this vulnerability.

    Linux/FreeBSD: Add absolute paths for system binaries to prevent path…

    Linux/FreeBSD: Add absolute paths for system binaries to prevent path hijacking (CVE-2024-54187, collaboration with SivertPL @__tfr)
    
    This commit fixes a critical security vulnerability where VeraCrypt could be tricked into executing malicious binaries with elevated privileges. The vulnerability has two severe implications:
    
    1. When sudo's secure_path option is disabled, attackers could execute malicious binaries with root privileges by placing them in user-writable PATH directories (e.g., making "sudo mount" execute a malicious mount binary)
    
    2. By placing a malicious sudo binary in PATH, attackers could intercept and steal the user's password when VeraCrypt prompts for sudo authentication
    
    The vulnerability allowed attackers to place malicious binaries in user-writable directories that appear in PATH before system directories, potentially leading to privilege escalation and credential theft.
    
    Key changes:
    - Implement FindSystemBinary() to locate executables in secure system paths
    - Replace all relative binary paths with absolute paths for system commands
    - Add security checks for executable permissions
    - Update process execution to use absolute paths for:
      * sudo
      * mount
      * fsck
      * terminal emulators
      * file managers
      * system utilities (hdiutil, mdconfig, vnconfig, lofiadm)
    
    The fix ensures all system binaries are called using their absolute paths from secure system directories, preventing both privilege escalation through PATH manipulation and password theft through sudo hijacking.

    JS: Performance fix for chrome
    
    Holy performance killer batman! Chrome was updating nodelists on
    every change instead of batching them like firefox resulting in
    exponentially worse performance. (Like "This fix made it go from
    40 minutes to 7 seconds" exponentially)

    CSS: Set contain on kint dumps to help client side performance
    
    The contain and content-visibility properties are very new and
    can actually break rendering entirely in different circumstances
    for different browsers.
    
    For now we'll stick to good old display:none and just hope contain
    implementations get good enough to give us some perf down the line.
