The updater runs as LocalSystem and started netbird-ui via
CreateProcessAsUser with a nil environment, so the UI inherited the
SYSTEM environment (USERPROFILE, APPDATA pointing at systemprofile)
while running under the user's token. The WebView2-based UI exits
immediately in that state, so the UI never came back after an update.
Build the environment from the user's token with CreateEnvironmentBlock
and pass it to CreateProcessAsUser.
Android never reported its local network interfaces, so PeerNetworkRange posture checks could not be evaluated: NetworkAddresses always arrived empty.
net.Interfaces() is unusable on Android 11+ (SELinux blocks netlink), so the addresses are parsed from the interface description the host app already provides via stdnet.ExternalIFaceDiscover. The MAC filter is skipped, mirroring #5906
for iOS, since Android does not expose MACs either and nothing reads Mac server side.
Stop the UI before a silent Windows update and suppress the installer reboot
On silent MSI updates msiexec could reboot the machine on its own. The running UI holds a lock on its own exe, and since msiexec runs as LocalSystem it cannot close the interactive user's UI via Restart Manager, so the MSI scheduled the
file replacement for the next reboot and marked the install restart-required.
Terminate netbird-ui.exe before launching the installer and wait until its image file is released; the existing deferred restart brings it back after the install on every exit path
Run msiexec with /norestart REBOOT=ReallySuppress so it never reboots on its own
Treat exit codes 3010/1641 as success with a warning instead of a failure

* [client] Clear stale installer result before starting update
The installer result file could survive a previous update attempt (e.g.
when the updater wrote it after the restarted daemon already ran its
startup check). A new install attempt left the old file in place, so the
GUI progress window's first GetInstallerResult poll read the outdated
result: a stale success made the GUI quit mid-install, which cancelled
the TriggerUpdate context and aborted the artifact verification; a stale
error surfaced a bogus failure dialog for a succeeding update.
Remove any leftover result file at the start of RunInstallation, before
the download begins, so result watchers only see the current attempt's
outcome.
* [client] Align stale-result warning with log message style
On network changes the client restarted the whole engine. That is heavy-handed and slow: it tears down working state to recover from a transition the engine could handle itself. This replaces the restart with proper network event handling.
Suspend the retry loops while no network is available. Instead of burning through backoff intervals against an unreachable network, the reconnection loops park until the OS reports a usable network again.
Reconnect immediately on a network switch. When the OS hands us a new network, connections bound to the old one are swept and re-dialed right away, rather than waiting for a timeout to notice they are dead.
Adds an SSHClient gomobile binding so the Android app can run an SSH session over the tunnel with a PTY, exposed through a listener interface for the in-app terminal.
Server type is auto-detected from the SSH banner, which selects the auth path: JWT device-code flow, NetBird key, or a regular server (NetBird key first, then password). Host keys are verified against the peer registry for NetBird servers and trust-on-first-use for regular ones.
* [docs] Update agent-network docs for management-owned pricing
The docs still described the retired proxy-side pricing: pricing.Loader,
pricing_path, MiddlewareDataDir, embedded defaults_pricing.yaml, and the
symlink-safe Unix loader. Rewrite them for the current design — management
synthesizes the whole table and ships it in cost_meter's ConfigJSON, so the
proxy carries no price list and has nothing to reload.
* [client] Pass stored email as login hint from UI and keep it on logout
Follow the CLI pattern: the Wails UI now reads the account email from the
user-owned profile state file and passes it as the OIDC login_hint on login
and session extend, since the daemon-side fallback runs as root and cannot
see the user's state file. Logout no longer deletes the stored email, so a
later login preselects the account at the IdP; profile removal remains the
operation that deletes it.
* [client] Log ignored profile lookup errors in extend-session hint fallback
* [client] Skip IPv6 route tests when the default nexthop is unusable
ensureIPv6DefaultRoute treated a successful netlink RouteAdd as proof that
a usable IPv6 nexthop exists. Installing ::/0 via loopback can succeed while
the kernel still rejects that nexthop for a concrete prefix, which surfaced
on ubuntu22/20260810.260 runners as:
add route to table: netlink add route: invalid argument
Probe the resolved nexthop by installing and removing a discard-prefix route
through the same code path the tests use, and skip when it fails. EEXIST
means the nexthop already carries a route, so it counts as usable.
* [client] Probe the IPv6 nexthop through raw netlink
addRoute swallows EAFNOSUPPORT and EOPNOTSUPP via isOpErr, so a nil return
did not prove the probe route was installed. Call netlink directly so an
unsupported operation skips the test instead of passing as usable.
Align Android logout semantics with the desktop UI and CLI: logging out no
longer deletes the stored account email, so the next login passes it as the
OIDC login_hint and the IdP preselects the account. Removing the profile is
now the operation that deletes the email; previously RemoveProfile left the
account file behind, which the fixed-name default profile would have
inherited on recreation.
English (en) is the source of truth for UI translation keys; the other
nine locales rely on runtime English fallback for any missing key, so a
gap never surfaces in CI. Add a dependency-free Node check that fails
when any locale declared in _index.json does not carry the exact same
key set as en (missing or orphaned keys), wired into a dedicated
UI Translations workflow that runs on locale changes.
Also close the one existing gap the check found: ja was missing
daemon.outdated.download ("Download Latest").

Prepares the repository for the release-branch process agreed internally:
one long-lived release-0.N branch per minor, with fixes backported by
cherry-pick and patch releases tagged from the branch.
Pushes to release-* branches now run the Release workflow and publish
immutable sha-* container images, the way pushes to main already do, so
a release branch can be tested before it is tagged. Release branches
never publish the floating "main" image tag. The push-to-main CI
workflows (Go tests on all platforms, frontend UI, install script,
mobile/wasm validation, infrastructure files, license check) also run
on release-* pushes; pull request triggers were already unfiltered, so
backport PRs were covered — this closes the post-merge gap.
Releases are no longer marked latest before signing: make_latest is
now false in all four goreleaser configs, so a release stays published
but not latest until the signing pipeline uploads the signed Windows
and macOS artifacts and marks it latest itself. Previously the release
became GitHub's "Latest release" at publish time, and the download
endpoints that resolve through the latest-release API could serve a
release whose signed installers did not exist yet. prerelease: auto
additionally labels rc tags as prereleases, so a release candidate can
never take the latest slot.
The trigger_sync_tag job is removed: it dispatched a downstream
image build on every v* tag (release candidates included), which would
race the deliberate release-branch build on every release. The android
and ios submodule bumps are unchanged.
Also sets perennial-regex = "^release-" so git-town never syncs or
ships a release branch into main.
The NSIS installer deleted HKLM/HKCU CurrentVersion\Run values it never
writes, which matches common AV heuristics for unwanted Run-key
manipulation and is suspected to contribute to Windows Defender and
third-party antivirus false positives on the installer.
Drop all autostart registry deletions from both the install and
uninstall sections so the installer only touches keys it creates
itself. Cleanup of the legacy machine-wide entry written by old
installers is left to documentation.
Extends the approach of the closed PR #6735, which only removed the
per-user deletion on uninstall.
e2e/harness documents itself as feature-agnostic, but three details
assumed the caller lives in this repo, so the terraform provider's
acceptance suite would otherwise carry a second harness for the same
product.
repoRoot took the first module root above the working directory as the
Docker build context, which from another module is the caller's own
root, with no combined/Dockerfile.multistage in it. It now requires that
ancestor to be this module, and otherwise asks the go tool for the
source: for a dependent, the extracted directory of the version it pins,
so the server matches the client library it was compiled against. That
lookup uses -mod=readonly, since automatic vendor mode otherwise reports
an empty Dir.
Geolocation was disabled unconditionally. Agent-network ingest does not
use it, but location-based posture checks need the database, and a rule
management cannot evaluate fails rather than passing.
StartClient pinned one network alias and set no hostname, so a second
agent could not start and a peer's name was arbitrary. Management
records that hostname, making it the peer's name in the API.
The client entrypoint is copied with an explicit mode: git tracks it
100755, but the module cache extracts 0444, so a dependent's build
produced a container exiting with "permission denied".
Adds CombinedOption, WithGeolocation, WithServerEnv, ClientOption and
WithClientName.
- Align default names and reuse same environment variables
- With the uploads now targeting the same stable/yum paths as the GTK4
packages, two packages named netbird-ui with the same version and arch
would collide in the repo indexes. Give the GTK3 variant its own
package name and mark the two as conflicting alternatives.

People who only ever reach private services through the reverse proxy were
invisible to activity accounting. Active users are counted from user.LastLogin
or from the LastSeen of a peer they own, and neither column was written on the
proxy paths — so a person signing in via SSO to a proxied service, or a peer
serving one over the mesh, never showed up in the 24 hour numbers.
Both writes now happen where the proxy already authenticates:
- GenerateSessionToken stamps LastLogin after the session token is signed,
the same column and the same way the dashboard and device login paths do.
- ValidateTunnelPeer stamps the calling peer's LastSeen, the column its owner
activates through.
The policy lives in a new reverseproxy/activity manager rather than in the gRPC
service, matching the module layout the other reverse proxy domains use. It
skips what can never count — service users, embedded proxy peers and WASM
clients — and throttles peer writes to once an hour, well inside the window
accounting asks about and far above the proxy's five minute tunnel cache.
The peer write is a single indexed UPDATE that touches only
peer_status_last_seen. Connected and SessionStartedAt are left alone so the
session-ownership fencing MarkPeerConnectedIfNewerSession relies on is never
disturbed, and the timestamp comes from the database clock rather than the
caller, for the same reason the other status writers take it from there. The
caller's cutoff travels into the statement's WHERE, so concurrent requests for
one peer collapse into a single write instead of each acting on its own stale
read, and a peer that was never seen — NULL last seen, since Status is an
embedded pointer — still records its first activity.
Nothing outside the reverse proxy changes behaviour: the only addition
elsewhere is the RefreshPeerLastSeen store method the manager calls.
At proxy connect time, the declared cluster address is validated for
shape and checked for availability (`IsClusterAddressAvailable`), and
from then on the declaration is what routes the cluster's mappings to
the connection. Deployments that embed management through the
integrations seam may need a policy on that claim — deciding which
credential is allowed to declare which address.
This adds an optional `ProxyConnectAuthorizer` hook on
`ProxyServiceServer`, following the pattern of the existing `Set*` seams
(`SetServiceManager`, `SetAgentNetworkSynthesizer`,
`SetAgentNetworkLimitsService`, `SetProxyController`):
- A nil-able interface field plus `SetProxyConnectAuthorizer`, guarded
by the existing mutex.
- One call at the end of `validateProxyConnect`, so both
`GetMappingUpdate` and `SyncMappings` are covered by a single site.
- **Nothing installs it by default** — with the hook unset (always, in
this repo), behavior is byte-for-byte unchanged, which the tests pin.
Design details:
- The authorizer runs **last** — after input validation and the
availability check — and **outside** the account-scoped branch, so
management-wide tokens and token-less connects are also presented to it
rather than bypassing policy.
- The authorizer receives the presented `*types.ProxyAccessToken` (nil
when none), the proxy ID, and the declared address. Everything it needs
is already in the request/context; no proto or schema change.
- A plain error from the authorizer surfaces as `PermissionDenied`,
keeping an authorization rejection distinguishable from the
`AlreadyExists` used for address conflicts in proxy logs. A status error
passes through unchanged so implementations can pick their own code.
Store the per-account gateway endpoint as {domain, proxy_address} with a
global unique index on the full hostname; dedicated = (domain ==
proxy_address). Bootstrap becomes an explicit POST carrying exactly one
of proxy_address (server allocates an adjective-noun label beneath it)
or endpoint (claimed verbatim, address-first); provider create loses its
bootstrap side effect. PUT is a full replace with every field required —
the immutable identity fields must be echoed unchanged and a mismatch is
rejected with 422. A guarded DELETE releases the endpoint: refused with
412 while providers exist or a proxy is actively serving the endpoint
hostname (matched case-insensitively); re-creating bootstraps fresh. A
self-addressed pin excludes its address from the account's cluster allow
list, and the live mapping update path now addresses the serving proxy
from the synthesized service. Existing rows are migrated on all three
store engines.
## Describe your changes
The native_webview2loader build tag embedded Microsoft's
WebView2Loader.dll via //go:embed. Those DLLs are gitignored in the fork
and go mod vendor resolves embed patterns regardless of build
constraints, so vendoring the module failed on the missing files when
packaging for openSUSE.
The fork now removes that branch along with the go-winloader dependency,
which drops out of the module graph here. The default GoWebView2Loader
path is unaffected.

## Describe your changes
The UI shells out to xdg-open to launch the external browser for the SSO
verification page, which the embedded webview cannot open inline, and to
reveal the debug bundle in the file manager.
client/ui/build/linux/nfpm/nfpm.yaml lists xdg-utils for every package
format, but the released packages are built from the goreleaser configs,
where it was missing: the GTK and WebKitGTK dependencies carried over
and xdg-utils did not. Add it to all four nfpm dependency lists.

A user in the Pending Approval state could complete SSO and reach any
SSO-protected reverse proxy service distributed to a group they belong
to, including the All Users group. The reverse proxy authorization path
checked the session token signature, that the user exists, that the
user's account matches the service's account, and group membership —
never the user's account status. The REST API (`permissions/manager.go`)
and peer registration both gate on that state, but the proxy gRPC
service does not go through the permissions manager, so neither gate
applied. A pending user is persisted as blocked and pending approval, so
blocked users reached those services the same way.
`ValidateSession` now denies on account status, reporting
`pending_approval` or `user_blocked` so the proxy access log and the
denied page carry the cause rather than a generic refusal.
`GenerateSessionToken` refuses to mint a token for such a user at all,
so the browser never receives a session cookie and the OIDC callback can
tell the user why instead of showing "Service configuration error".
`ValidateUserGroupAccess` and `ValidateTunnelPeer` close the same gap;
for the tunnel path this covers a user blocked after their peer was
registered, since peer group membership alone kept mesh-origin access
open.
A single helper produces both the denied reason for the RPC responses
and the sentinel error for the error-returning callers, so the four
entry points cannot drift apart. A user the store cannot resolve is
denied rather than passed through.
One thing deliberately left out: session cookies are validated locally
by the proxy against the service public key with no management
round-trip, so a cookie issued before a user is blocked stays valid
until it expires (24h by default). That is a revocation-propagation
problem rather than this authorization gap, and every option for it
(per-request validation with a cache, short-lived tokens with refresh,
push-based revocation) changes the proxy hot path or the
proxy/management protocol. Worth its own ticket.
## Describe your changes
`recordConnectionMetrics` mapped only `conntype.Relay` to `relay` and
let a `default` branch
record everything else as `ice`. That silently included `ICETurn` — an
ICE connection through
a TURN server, which
[`conn.isRelayed`](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/client/internal/peer/conn.go#L788-L795)
itself counts as relayed — and `None`, the transient state set when the
relay drops
([conn.go:632](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/client/internal/peer/conn.go#L632))
or the peer state is reset
([conn.go:757](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/client/internal/peer/conn.go#L757)).
Both were reported as direct peer-to-peer, so the `ice` share overstated
direct connections on
every platform.
The mapping now lists every priority explicitly and emits `ice_p2p`,
`ice_turn`, `relay` or
`unknown`. The new values deliberately do not reuse `ice` to avoid
ambuguity.
## Issue ticket number and link
No public issue. Found while reviewing the first production sample of
client metrics: 38% of iOS
connection events were tagged `ice` on a platform that forces relay by
default, which traced back
to the `default` branch at
[client/internal/peer/conn.go#L963-L968](https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/blob/main/client/internal/peer/conn.go#L963-L968).

The migration wizard detected the community deployment only by the
Docker Hub image prefix (netbirdio/netbird-server), so deployments
installed from the ghcr.io mirror failed with "Could not find a service
running netbirdio/netbird-server*".
This broadens the server and dashboard detection to also accept
ghcr.io/netbirdio/... images. The regexes are anchored at the tag/digest
separator so Enterprise images (netbird-server-cloud, dashboard-cloud)
are still rejected, an already-migrated deployment must not be detected
as a community one. Error messages updated to mention both forms.
## Describe your changes
The Conn struct is reused across lazy-connection deactivate/activate.
Close
cancels the WireGuard watcher (via wgWatcherCancel, and ctxCancel also
tears
down its context) but left conn.wgWatcher pointing at the stopped
instance.
enableWgWatcherIfNeeded skips while conn.wgWatcher is non-nil, so the
next Open
never started a fresh watcher: once a lazy connection had idled and
woken, the
peer ran with no watcher at all — no WireGuard handshake-timeout
detection and
none of the escalation that depends on it.
Clear conn.wgWatcher and conn.wgWatcherCancel in Close so the next Open
re-arms
a fresh watcher.
