Description Joakim Tjernlund 2024-05-07 14:51:54 UTC
This release adds the following features:

    Drop heap as part of a housekeeping action
    Retry downloads to workaround flaky network connections

This release fixes the following bugs:

    Assume new ME versions are called CSME
    Fix a buffer-overread when parsing invalid CoSWID entity data
    Fix a logic thinko when parsing GUID strings
    Fix downloading files on Windows with libcurl >= 7.77.0
    Revert back to a simpler syscall blocklist-based filter

This release adds support for the following hardware:

    Acer U32 dock
    Luxshare 7-in-1 dock
    Pixart models 2404, 4206, 2440, 2418, 2752, 2840 and 2818





Current 1.9.18 is somewhat broken, see https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/7166

I suffer from a different fwupd problem which is also fixed by 1.9.19:
"Failed to load daemon: syscall filtering is configured but not working"
