* fix: nodeIntegrationInWorker not working in AudioWorklet
Co-authored-by: Shelley Vohr <shelley.vohr@gmail.com>
* fix: deadlock on Windows when destroying non-AudioWorklet worker contexts
The previous change kept the WebWorkerObserver alive across
ContextWillDestroy so the worker thread could be reused for the next
context (AudioWorklet thread pooling, Chromium CL:5270028). This is
correct for AudioWorklet but wrong for PaintWorklet and other worker
types, which Blink does not pool — each teardown destroys the thread.
For those worker types, ~NodeBindings was deferred to the thread-exit
TLS callback. By that point set_uv_env(nullptr) had already run, so on
Windows the embed thread was parked in GetQueuedCompletionStatus with a
stale async_sent latch that swallowed the eventual WakeupEmbedThread()
from ~NodeBindings. uv_thread_join then blocked forever, deadlocking
renderer navigation. The worker-multiple-destroy crash case timed out
on win-x64/x86/arm64 as a result. macOS/Linux (epoll/kqueue) don't have
the latch and were unaffected.
Plumb is_audio_worklet from WillDestroyWorkerContextOnWorkerThread into
ContextWillDestroy. For non-AudioWorklet contexts, restore the
pre-existing behavior of calling lazy_tls->Set(nullptr) at the end of
the last-context cleanup so ~NodeBindings runs while the worker thread
is still healthy. AudioWorklet continues to keep the observer alive so
the next pooled context can share NodeBindings.

* fix: stop embed thread before destroying environments in worker teardown
FreeEnvironment (called via environments_.clear()) runs uv_run to drain
handle close callbacks. On Windows, both that uv_run and the embed
thread's PollEvents call GetQueuedCompletionStatus on the same IOCP
handle. IOCP completions are consumed by exactly one waiter, so the
embed thread can steal completions that FreeEnvironment needs, causing
uv_run to block indefinitely. On Linux/Mac epoll_wait/kevent can wake
multiple waiters for the same event so the race doesn't manifest.
Add NodeBindings::StopPolling() which cleanly joins the embed thread
without destroying handles or the loop, and allows PrepareEmbedThread +
StartPolling to restart it later. Call StopPolling() in
WebWorkerObserver::ContextWillDestroy before environments_.clear() so
FreeEnvironment's uv_run is the only thread touching the IOCP.
Split PrepareEmbedThread's handle initialization (uv_async_init,
uv_sem_init) from thread creation via a new embed_thread_prepared_ flag
so the handles survive across stop/restart cycles for pooled worklets
while the embed thread itself can be recreated.

BUILD.gn previously hard-coded read_file(".git/packed-refs", ...) and
".git/HEAD" to derive electron_version. In a `git worktree` checkout
.git is a file containing a gitdir: pointer, not a directory, so GN's
read_file() fails and gn gen aborts unless override_electron_version is
set manually.
Ask git itself for the real locations via `git rev-parse --git-dir` /
`--git-common-dir` in a small helper script, and feed those resolved
paths to read_file() and the exec_script dependency list. Behaviour in
a plain clone is unchanged (both resolve to electron/.git/...), and the
tarball case still fails loudly with a pointer to
override_electron_version.

ci: build a patched siso for Windows builds (#51077)
* ci: build a patched siso for Windows builds
The Windows Chromium builds intermittently fail during manifest load
with 'The parameter is incorrect.' (ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER) out of
bindflt.sys. Root cause is a handle-relative NtCreateFile race in
siso/toolsupport/ninjautil/file_parser.go, which opens each subninja
twice — once in the outer goroutine and once more per chunk for
ReadAt. (*os.File).ReadAt is documented as safe for concurrent use,
so the extra open is redundant and removing it both halves the
CreateFileW calls per subninja and sidesteps the race.
Add a new build-siso-windows job on ubuntu-latest (runs in parallel
with checkout-windows) that:
- reads chromium_version from DEPS and pulls the matching siso_version
SHA from the Chromium mirror's DEPS at that ref
- shallow-clones chromium.googlesource.com/build at that SHA
- applies the in-tree patches under .github/siso-patches/ via git am
- cross-compiles siso.exe for windows/amd64
- caches the binary keyed on siso SHA + sha256 of the patches, so
subsequent runs hit the cache and skip the clone/patch/build steps
- uploads the result as a siso-windows-amd64 artifact
The Windows build jobs now depend on build-siso-windows, download the
artifact into $RUNNER_TEMP/siso, and export SISO_PATH, which
depot_tools/siso.py already honors. Mirrored into windows-publish.yml
and the regenerated pipeline-segment-electron-publish.yml so release
builds pick it up too.
Notes: none
* ci: extract siso build into a reusable workflow segment
Move the build-siso-windows job body into
pipeline-segment-build-siso-windows.yml and call it from both build.yml
and windows-publish.yml via workflow_call. Also pin actions/cache to
v5.0.5 and add version comments next to the action SHAs introduced by
this change.

fix: prevent use-after-free when destroying guest WebContents during event emission
Multiple event emission sites in WebContents destroy the underlying C++
object via a JavaScript event handler calling webContents.destroy(), then
continue to dereference the freed `this` pointer. This is exploitable
through <webview> guest WebContents because Destroy() calls `delete this`
synchronously for guests, unlike non-guests which safely defer deletion.
The fix has two layers:
1. A new `is_emitting_event_` flag is checked in Destroy() — when true,
guest deletion is deferred to a posted task instead of executing
synchronously. This is separate from `is_safe_to_delete_` (which
gates LoadURL re-entrancy) to avoid rejecting legitimate loadURL
calls from event handlers.
2. AutoReset<bool> guards on `is_emitting_event_` are added to
CloseContents, RenderViewDeleted, DidFinishNavigation, and
SetContentsBounds, preventing synchronous destruction while their
Emit() calls are on the stack.
Destroy() now requires both `is_safe_to_delete_` (navigation re-entrancy)
and `!is_emitting_event_` (event emission) to allow synchronous guest
deletion. The existing AutoReset guards on `is_safe_to_delete_` in
DidStartNavigation, DidRedirectNavigation, and ReadyToCommitNavigation
are also now effective for guests.

The builtin_hash branch in v8's profile-data-reader.cc checks errno
after strtol but never resets it to 0 first. On 32-bit linux-arm
release builds, a stale errno=EINVAL from earlier in mksnapshot init
survives across the ~68k block_count/builtin_count profile lines that
v8 14.4's reader skips, causing CHECK(errno == 0 && ...) to crash
mksnapshot with SIGTRAP during run_mksnapshot_default.
Regressed in #50575 when builtins PGO was enabled; first failed in
v40.8.6. The latent bug also exists on v8 main (only masked by
BUILTIN_BLOCK_POSITION resetting errno in an adjacent handler) and
should be upstreamed.

[maglev] Fix deopt use counting for deopt scope data
We shouldn't count the deopt use when creating the scope data,
but only when creating the deopt frame.
If the scope was unused, then we were over counting,
not really a correctness issue though.
If the scope was used twice, we were under counting and
we can underflow the counting when removing the use of
a node.

[inspector] Use std::shared_ptr for InspectedContext
Unfortunately at this point we are not able to move `InspectedContext`
to the managed C++ heap due to missing Heap* collections and the lack
of labeling retainer links.
The next best thing we can do for now is use std::shared_ptr for
InspectedContext and keep an instance on the stack every time we can
potentially transition into user JS.

fix: simpleFullScreen exits when web content calls requestFullscreen
SetHtmlApiFullscreen only checked IsFullscreen() to detect that the
window was already fullscreen, missing the simple-fullscreen case on
macOS. When web content triggered requestFullscreen the code fell
through to SetFullScreen(true) which toggled simple fullscreen off.
Include IsSimpleFullScreen() in the guard so the HTML-API fullscreen
state is updated without touching the window's fullscreen mode.

fix: return numeric `blksize` and `blocks` from asar `fs.stat`
Previously, `fs.stat` on files inside `.asar` archives returned
`undefined` for `blksize` and `blocks`, violating the Node.js API
contract where these fields must be `number | bigint`.
Use `4096` for `blksize` (matching the convention used by `memfs` and
the proposed `node:vfs` module in nodejs/node#61478) and compute
`blocks` as `ceil(size / 512)` (standard 512-byte block units).

#47171 migrated `std::deque` to `base::circular_deque` in
`shell/common/crash_keys.cc`. However, `CrashKeyString` wraps a
`crashpad::Annotation` that holds self-referential pointers and
registers itself in a process-global linked list. `circular_deque`
relocates elements on growth (via `VectorBuffer::MoveConstructRange`),
leaving those pointers dangling — causing missing crash keys or a hung
crashpad handler (especially on macOS). The `base/containers/README.md`
warns: "Since `base::deque` does not have stable iterators and it will
move the objects it contains, it may not be appropriate for all uses."
Reverts to `std::deque`, whose block-based layout never relocates
existing elements. Adds a regression test that registers 50 dynamic
crash keys and verifies they all survive a renderer crash.
Notes: Fixed crash keys being lost and the crash reporter hanging on
macOS when many dynamic crash keys were registered.

PR #50646 added a dock state allowlist in SetDockState() that collapsed any
non-matching value to "right". WebContents::OpenDevTools passes an empty
string when no `mode` option is given, which is the sentinel LoadCompleted()
uses to restore `currentDockState` from prefs. The allowlist clobbered that
sentinel to "right", so previously-undocked devtools would flash detached
and then snap back to the right dock.
Preserve the empty string through SetDockState() so the pref-restore path
runs; still reject any non-empty invalid value to keep the JS-injection
guard from #50646 intact.

ci: make src-cache upload atomic and sweep orphaned temp files
The checkout action's cp of the ~6GB zstd archive directly to the final
path on the cache share is non-atomic; an interrupted copy or a
concurrent reader produces zstd "Read error (39): premature end" on
restore, and the truncated file then satisfies the existence check so
no later run repairs it.
Upload to a run-unique *.tar.upload-<run_id>-<attempt> temp name on the
share and mv to the final path, discarding our temp if a concurrent run
got there first. A new clean-orphaned-cache-uploads workflow removes
temp files older than 4h every 4 hours.

@sentry/cli fetches its platform binary from Sentry CDN at postinstall.

build: derive patches upstream-head ref from script path (#50727)
* build: derive patches upstream-head ref from script path
gclient-new-workdir.py symlinks each repo's .git/refs back to the source
checkout, so the fixed refs/patches/upstream-head was shared across all
worktrees. Parallel `e sync` runs in different worktrees clobbered each
other's upstream-head, breaking `e patches` and check-patch-diff.
Suffix the ref with an md5 of the script directory so each worktree writes
a distinct ref into the shared refs dir. Fall back to the legacy ref name
in guess_base_commit so existing checkouts keep working until next sync.
* fixup: also write legacy upstream-head ref and note it in docs
ci: zstd-compress the src cache and drop the doubled win_toolchain (#50702)
* ci: shrink src cache and fix Windows tar cleanup
- Exclude platform-specific toolchains (llvm-build, rust-toolchain) from
the src cache; all platforms now fetch them via fix-sync post-restore
- Exclude unused test data and benchmarks: blink/web_tests, jetstream,
speedometer, catapult/tracing/test_data, swiftshader/tests/regres
- Fix Windows restore leaving the tarball on disk after extraction
($src_cache was scoped to the previous PowerShell step)
- Bump src-cache key v1 -> v2
* ci: fetch llvm/rust toolchains in gn-check and clang-tidy
These workflows restore the src cache but don't run fix-sync. Now that
llvm-build and rust-toolchain are excluded from the cache, they need to
download them directly — gn gen read_file()s both, and clang-tidy runs
the binary from llvm-build.
* ci: fetch clang-tidy package explicitly
update.py's default 'clang' package doesn't include the clang-tidy
binary; it ships as a separate package.
* ci: preserve blink/web_tests/BUILD.gn when stripping test data
//BUILD.gn references //third_party/blink/web_tests:wpt_tests as a
target label, so the BUILD.gn must exist for gn gen. The data = [...]
entries it declares are runtime-only and not existence-checked at gen
time, so the actual test directories can still be removed.
* ci: compress src cache with zstd and drop gclient sync -vv
The src cache was an uncompressed tar (~16GB after exclusions). Switch
to zstd -T0 --long=30 for ~4x smaller transfer and multi-threaded
compression. Decompress on restore:
- Linux/macOS: zstd -d -c | tar -xf -
- Windows: zstd -d to an intermediate .tar, then the existing 7z
-snld20 extraction (preserves symlink handling)
All filename references updated .tar -> .tar.zst. -f added to the two
-o invocations so re-runs overwrite instead of failing.
Also drop -vv from gclient sync; default verbosity is sufficient.
* ci: keep .tar extension for src cache (zstd content inside)
The sas-sidecar that issues Azure SAS tokens validates filenames against
/^v[0-9]+-[a-z\-]+-[a-f0-9]+\.(tar|tgz)$/ and is not easily redeployed,
so keep the .tar extension and decode zstd on restore. Windows
decompresses to a distinct intermediate (src_cache.tar) so input and
output don't collide.
* ci: log NTFS 8.3/lastaccess/Defender state before Windows cache extract
Temporary diagnostics to see whether 8.3 short-name generation is the
cause of the ~20 min tar extraction.
* ci: revert src-cache exclusion additions
The new exclusions (web_tests contents, jetstream, speedometer,
catapult test_data, regres, llvm-build, rust-toolchain) caused siso/RBE
cache misses — even data-only deps are part of action input hashes.
Revert to the original exclusion list and drop the corresponding
toolchain-fetch plumbing. zstd compression, the Windows tar cleanup,
and the -vv removal remain.
* ci: drop win_toolchain from src cache; remove NTFS diagnostics
The Windows src cache includes 14.6GB of depot_tools/win_toolchain —
7.3GB of MSVC/SDK doubled because tar captures both the vs_files.ciopfs
backing store and the live ciopfs mount at vs_files/. Every Windows
cache consumer already re-fetches this via vs_toolchain.py update
--force (fix-sync for build/publish, inline for gn-check/clang-tidy),
so the cached copy is never used.
Diagnostics removed — CI confirmed 8dot3, last-access, and Defender are
all already off on the AKS Windows nodes.
* ci: unmount ciopfs vs_files before removing win_toolchain
vs_files is a live ciopfs mount during the win-targeted checkout; rm -rf
fails with EBUSY until it's unmounted.
* ci: skip win_toolchain download during checkout instead of removing after
fusermount isn't on the checkout container, so the ciopfs mount can't be
torn down before rm. Setting DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN=0 makes the
win_toolchain hook a no-op (vs_toolchain.py:525-527), so there's no
download and no mount. All Windows consumers re-fetch it post-restore
anyway. The rm -rf stays as a safety net.
* ci: also set ELECTRON_DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN=0 for checkout sync
build.yml sets ELECTRON_DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN=1 at the job level for
the Windows checkout, which makes e d inject DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN=1
and override the inline =0. Need both: the ELECTRON_ var stops e d from
overriding, the plain one stops vs_toolchain.py from defaulting to 1.
* ci: extract Windows src cache with piped tar instead of 7z
7z takes ~20 min to extract the ~1.1M-entry tar regardless of size —
~1ms per entry of header parsing and path handling, single-threaded,
well under the 75k IOPS / 1000 MBps the ephemeral disk can do. Switch
to the same zstd -d | tar -xf - pipe used on Linux/macOS (via Git Bash
tar). No intermediate src_cache.tar, download deleted after extract.
The -snld20 flag was working around 7z's own "dangerous symlink"
refusal; GNU tar extracts symlinks as-is so it shouldn't be needed.
* ci: keep depot_tools/win_toolchain scripts in src cache
The rm -rf removed get_toolchain_if_necessary.py (a depot_tools source
file), breaking vs_toolchain.py update --force on restore.
DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN=0 on the sync already prevents the vs_files
download, so the rm was only removing scripts.
* ci: split src cache into 4 parallel-extractable shards
Windows tar extraction is ~1ms/entry for ~1.2M entries (~20 min)
regardless of tool, well under the 75k IOPS / 1000 MBps the D16lds_v5
ephemeral disk can do. Tar is a sequential stream so the only way to
parallelize is to split at creation time.
Shards (balanced by entry count, ~220-360k each):
a: src/third_party/blink
b: src/third_party/{dawn,electron_node,tflite,devtools-frontend}
c: src/third_party (rest)
d: src (excluding third_party)
DEPSHASH is now the raw hash; shard files are
v2-src-cache-shard-{a..d}-${DEPSHASH}.tar (all pass the sas-sidecar
filename regex). sas-token is now a JSON keyed by shard letter. All
restore paths extract the four shards in parallel with per-PID wait so
a failed shard aborts the step.

fix: propagate requesting frame through sync permission checks (#50679)
WebContentsPermissionHelper::CheckPermission was hardcoding
GetPrimaryMainFrame() and deriving the requesting origin from
web_contents_->GetLastCommittedURL(), so the setPermissionCheckHandler
callback always received the top frame's origin and
details.isMainFrame/details.requestingUrl always reflected the main
frame, even when a cross-origin subframe with allow="serial" or
allow="camera; microphone" triggered the check.
Thread the requesting RenderFrameHost through CheckPermission,
CheckSerialAccessPermission, and CheckMediaAccessPermission so the
permission manager receives the real requesting frame. Update the
serial delegate and WebContents::CheckMediaAccessPermission callers to
pass the frame they already have.
Adds a regression test that loads a cross-origin iframe with
allow="camera; microphone", calls enumerateDevices() from within the
iframe, and asserts the permission check handler receives the iframe
origin for requestingOrigin, isMainFrame, and requestingUrl.

* fix: re-enable MacWebContentsOcclusion with embedder window fix (#50579)
* fix: re-enable MacWebContentsOcclusion with embedder window fix
Replace the full revert of Chromium's MacWebContentsOcclusion cleanup
with a targeted patch that handles embedder windows shown after
WebContentsViewCocoa attachment. This lets us drop the feature flag
disable in feature_list.cc and re-enable upstream occlusion tracking.
Adds tests for show/hide event counts on macOS and visibility tracking
across multiple child WebContentsViews.
* test: drop show/hide event count assertion
The assertion that 'show' fires exactly once per w.show() call is not
an API guarantee - macOS can send multiple occlusion state
notifications during a single show() when other windows are on screen
(common on CI after hundreds of prior tests). The
visibilitychange-count test in api-web-contents-view-spec.ts covers
the actual invariant we care about.
* fix: ignore WebContentsOcclusionCheckerMac synthetic notifications in window delegate
On macOS 13.3-25.x, Chromium's occlusion checker enables manual
frame-intersection detection and posts synthetic
NSWindowDidChangeOcclusionStateNotification tagged with its class name
in userInfo. These fire when the checker's NSContainsRect heuristic
decides a window is covered by another window's frame, but the real
-[NSWindow occlusionState] hasn't changed.
Our delegate was treating these the same as real macOS notifications
and emitting show/hide events based on occlusionState, which was
unchanged - resulting in spurious duplicate show events when e.g.
Quick Look opened and its frame intersected the BrowserWindow.
* fixup: adjust patch offsets for 40-x-y chromium
fix-sync re-downloads llvm-build on macOS/Windows with the base clang
and objdump packages, but not clang-tidy. A local gclient sync pulls
clang-tidy (checkout_clang_tidy=True in DEPS), so CI's llvm-build tree
diverges from a local one. siso hashes the toolchain as action input,
so cache-only local runs against the CI-populated RBE cache miss.

V8's second-pass weak callbacks run inside a
DisallowJavascriptExecutionScope: they may touch the V8 API but must
not invoke JS, directly or indirectly. Several Electron Wrappables
(WebContents in particular) emit JS events from their destructors,
so deleting synchronously inside SecondWeakCallback can crash with
"Invoke in DisallowJavascriptExecutionScope" when GC happens to
collect the JS wrapper during a foreground GC task — typically during
shutdown's uv_run drain after a leaked WebContentsView.
This was previously latent and timing-dependent (electron/electron#47420,
electron/electron#45416, podman-desktop/podman-desktop#12409). The
esbuild migration's keepNames option (which wraps every function/class
with an Object.defineProperty call) shifted heap layout enough to make
the spec/fixtures/crash-cases/webcontentsview-create-leak-exit case
reliably reproduce it on every run, giving a clean signal for the fix.
Both WrappableBase and DeprecatedWrappableBase SecondWeakCallback now
post the deletion via base::SequencedTaskRunner::GetCurrentDefault()
so the destructor (and any Emit it does) runs once V8 has left the GC
scope. Falls back to synchronous deletion if no task runner is
available (early/late process lifetime).
Fixeselectron/electron#47420.

fix: resolve getFileHandle concurrent stalling by queuing callbacks (#50597)
Previously, concurrent calls to FileSystemAccessPermissionContext::ConfirmSensitiveEntryAccess
for the same file path would silently discard the subsequent callbacks because
the internal callback map used a single callback per file path and std::map::try_emplace
would drop the callback if the key already existed. This caused Promises in JS
(e.g., dirHandle.getFileHandle()) to stall indefinitely.
This commit updates the callback map to hold a vector of callbacks, so all
concurrent requesters for the same filepath are grouped together and resolved
once the asynchronous blocklist check completes.
Notes: Fixed an issue where concurrent `getFileHandle` requests on the same path could stall indefinitely.

Co-authored-by: PatchUp <73610968+patchup[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
The `OnTraceBufferUsageAvailable` callback creates V8 handles via
`Dictionary::CreateEmpty()` before `promise.Resolve()` enters its
`SettleScope` (which provides a `HandleScope`). When the callback
fires asynchronously from a Mojo response (i.e. when a trace session
is active), there is no `HandleScope` on the stack, causing a fatal
V8 error: "Cannot create a handle without a HandleScope".
Add an explicit `v8::HandleScope` at the top of the callback, matching
the pattern used by the other contentTracing APIs which resolve their
promises through `SettleScope` or the static `ResolvePromise` helper.

ci: upload patch conflict fix as artifact in apply-patches
When patch-up.js cannot auto-push the 3-way-merged patch diff (e.g. on
fork PRs), the checkout action already writes patches/update-patches.patch
and tells the user to check CI artifacts — but nothing was uploading it.
This adds the missing upload-artifact step to the apply-patches job so
the resolved diff is available for download, and documents in CLAUDE.md
that pulling this artifact and applying it with `git am` is the fast
path for fixing patch conflicts on PR branches without a full local sync.

fix: out-of-bounds read in diff rulesets.
When merging diff rulesets, if Add() failed (due to a deliberate hash
collision, causing RobinHoodMap to refuse the insertion), we would
call NewlyAddedFromDifferentRuleSet() twice on the same RuleData,
causing us to potentially read data past the end of the Bloom filter
backing.
In addition to actually fixing the issue, we mark Add() as [[nodiscard]]
so that it cannot happen again, and we also spanify
MovedToDifferentRuleSet() so that a similar error would cause a CHECK
failure instead of reading out-of-bounds.
[arabic] Cap stch expansion per run (#5823)
Cap each stch run to at most 256 output glyphs.
This keeps pathological stretch runs from expanding to unbounded
sizes, and switches the repeat-count math to 64-bit intermediates so
the cap is applied before 32-bit arithmetic can wrap.
The existing checked accumulation and buffer growth logic stays in
place, covering both the per-run overflow and multi-run accumulation
cases reported in the recent stch advisories.

* fix: hex-encode Windows notification icon temp filenames
NotificationPresenterWin was using SHA1HashString(origin.spec()) directly
as the basename for the temporary PNG written for toast icons.
SHA1HashString returns raw digest bytes, so the generated filename could
contain invalid path characters on Windows. That caused WriteFile to fail
when saving notification icons, which left toast XML without the expected
icon path.
Hex-encode the digest before appending .png so the temporary filename is
filesystem-safe while keeping deterministic naming for a given origin.

The frameNamesToWindow map was a holdover from the BrowserWindowProxy
IPC shim. Since nativeWindowOpen became the only code path, Blink's
FrameTree::FindOrCreateFrameForNavigation resolves named window targets
directly in the renderer, scoped to the opener's browsing context
group. When a matching named window exists, Blink navigates it without
ever sending a CreateNewWindow IPC to the browser, so this map was
never consulted in the legitimate same-opener case.
The only time the map found a match was when two unrelated renderers
happened to use the same target name, in which case openGuestWindow
would short-circuit before consuming the guest WebContents that
Chromium had already created for the new window, leaking it.
Adds a test verifying Blink handles same-opener named-target reuse
end-to-end without any browser-side tracking.

The weak persistent tracking the OffscreenReleaseHolderMonitor was tied
to the texture object, but the release() closure holds a raw pointer to
the monitor via its v8::External data. If JS retained texture.release
while dropping the texture itself, the monitor would be freed on GC and
a later release() call would crash.
Track the release function instead of the texture object. Since the
texture holds release as a property, this keeps the monitor alive as
long as either is reachable.

Previously the renderer checked a process-wide command-line switch to
decide whether to create a Node.js environment for dedicated workers.
When a renderer process hosted multiple WebContents with different
nodeIntegrationInWorker values (e.g. via window.open with overridden
webPreferences in setWindowOpenHandler), all workers in the process
used whichever value the first WebContents set on the command line.
Instead, plumb the flag through blink's WorkerSettings at worker
creation time, copying it from the initiating frame's WebPreferences.
The check on the worker thread then reads the per-worker value. Nested
workers inherit the flag from their parent worker via
WorkerSettings::Copy.
The --node-integration-in-worker command-line switch is removed as it
is no longer consumed.

* fix: correct utility process exit code on Windows
On Windows, process exit codes are 32-bit unsigned integers (DWORD).
When passed from Chromium to Electron as a signed int and then
implicitly converted to uint64_t, values with the high bit set

values.
Cast the exit code to uint32_t before widening to uint64_t to
prevent sign extension and preserve the original Windows exit code.

Upstream DevTools' HostRuntime checks `IS_NODE` before `IS_BROWSER` when
selecting the platform runtime. In Electron, `process` is available in
renderer processes, so `IS_NODE` evaluates to `true` in the DevTools
context. This causes DevTools to dynamically import the Node.js platform
runtime, which uses `node:worker_threads`. DevTools Web Workers running
under the `devtools://` protocol cannot load Node.js built-in modules,
so the import fails and breaks features like the formatter worker.
Fix by swapping the check order to prefer `IS_BROWSER` when both are
true. This is safe because in pure Node.js environments (the only case
where the node runtime is needed), `window` and `self` are both
undefined, so `IS_BROWSER` is always `false` regardless of check order.

* fix: preserve staged update dir when pruning orphaned update dirs on macOS
The previous squirrel.mac patch cleaned up all staged update directories
before starting a new download. This kept disk usage bounded but broke
quitAndInstall() if called while a subsequent checkForUpdates() was in
flight — the already-staged bundle would be deleted out from under it.
This reworks the patch to read ShipItState.plist and preserve the
directory it references, deleting only truly orphaned update.XXXXXXX
directories. Disk footprint stays bounded (at most 2 dirs: staged +
in-progress) and quitAndInstall() remains safe mid-check.
Also adds test coverage for the quitAndInstall/checkForUpdates race and
a triple-stack scenario where 3 updates arrive without a restart.

* fix: prevent traffic light buttons flashing on deminiaturize
When a window with a custom `trafficLightPosition` is minimized and

fix: validate protocol scheme names in setAsDefaultProtocolClient
On Windows, `app.setAsDefaultProtocolClient(protocol)` directly
concatenates the protocol string into the registry key path with no
validation. A protocol name containing `\` could write to an arbitrary
subkey under `HKCU\Software\Classes\`, potentially hijacking existing
protocol handlers.
To fix this, add `Browser::IsValidProtocolScheme()` which validates that a protocol
name conforms to the RFC 3986 scheme grammar:
scheme = ALPHA *( ALPHA / DIGIT / "+" / "-" / "." )
This rejects backslashes, forward slashes, whitespace, and any other
characters not permitted in URI schemes.

* fix: use requesting frame origin instead of top-level URL for permissions
`WebContentsPermissionHelper::RequestPermission` passes
`web_contents_->GetLastCommittedURL()` as the origin to the permission
manager instead of the actual requesting frame's origin. This enables
origin confusion when granting permissions to embedded third-party iframes,
since app permission handlers see the top-level origin instead of the
iframe's. The same pattern exists in the HID, USB, and Serial device
choosers, where grants are keyed to the primary main frame's origin rather
than the requesting frame's.
Fix this by using `requesting_frame->GetLastCommittedOrigin()` in all
affected code paths, renaming `details.requestingUrl` to
`details.requestingOrigin`, and populating it with the serialized
origin only.

The previous commit changed the details.requestingUrl field to
details.requestingOrigin in permission request/check handlers. That
field was already populated from the requesting frame's RFH, so the
rename was unnecessary and would break apps that read the existing
property. Revert to requestingUrl to preserve the existing API shape.
The functional changes to use the requesting frame in
WebContentsPermissionHelper and the HID/USB/Serial choosers remain.

The sender-mismatch check in invokeInWebContents and invokeInWebFrameMain
used a negative condition (`type === 'frame' && sender !== expected`),
which only rejected mismatched frame senders and accepted anything else.
Invert to a positive check so only the exact expected frame can resolve
the reply — matches the guard style used elsewhere in lib/browser/.

git format-patch honors diff.renames, which defaults to 'true' (rename
detection only). If a user has diff.renames=copies configured at the
system or global level, exported patches may encode new files as copies
of similar existing files, causing spurious diffs against patches
exported on other machines. Pin diff.renames=true to match git's
default.

PowerMonitor registered OS-level callbacks (HWND UserData and
WTS/suspend notifications on Windows, shutdown handler and lock-screen
observer on macOS) but never cleaned them up in its destructor. The JS
layer also only held the native object in a closure-local variable,
allowing GC to reclaim it while those registrations still referenced
freed memory.
Retain the native PowerMonitor at module level in power-monitor.ts so
it cannot be garbage-collected. Add DestroyPlatformSpecificMonitors()
to properly tear down OS registrations on destruction: on Windows,
unregister WTS and suspend notifications, clear GWLP_USERDATA, and
destroy the HWND; on macOS, remove the emitter from the global
MacLockMonitor and reset the Browser shutdown handler.

Previously, GetProtocolLaunchPath and FormatCommandLineString in
browser_win.cc used naive quoting which could break when paths or
arguments contained backslashes, spaces, or embedded quotes.
Fix by extracting the CommandLineToArgvW-compatible quoting logic from
relauncher_win.cc into a shared utility and use it in both browser_win.cc
and relauncher_win.cc to properly quote the exe path and each argument
individually.

Previously, when trashItemAtURL: failed (e.g. on network shares or
under app translocation), the code fell back to constructing an
AppleScript that interpolated the bundle path directly into a string
literal via %@ with no escaping. This was fragile and unnecessary —
trashItemAtURL: has been the standard API since 10.8 and covers the
relevant cases. The fix simply removes the AppleScript fallback
entirely, so Trash() now returns the result of trashItemAtURL: directly.

Previously, UsbChooserController::OnDeviceChosen looked up the chosen
device_id via chooser_context_->GetDeviceInfo(), which searches all
known USB devices on the system rather than the filtered list shown to
the select-usb-device handler. This meant a device excluded by the
renderer's filters or exclusion_filters could still be granted
permission if the handler returned its GUID.

The setter branch was deriving source_context from getter-> instead of
setter->. Currently latent since the only call site passes both from
the same preload context, but this would crash or mis-resolve if a
future call site passed a setter without a getter or from a different
context.

fix: bind offscreen paint callback to child WebContents
Previously, MaybeOverrideCreateParamsForNewWindow bound the
OffScreenWebContentsView's paint callback to the parent WebContents
using base::Unretained(this). This was both unsafe (dangling pointer
risk if the parent is destroyed before the child) and semantically
incorrect — paint events belong to the child window, not the opener.
Replace the callback in MaybeOverrideCreateParamsForNewWindow with
base::DoNothing(), then rebind it to the child WebContents in
AddNewContents via a new SetCallback method on OffScreenWebContentsView.

Enter the destination context scope before creating the VideoFrame V8
wrapper, matching the sibling Element and Blob branches. Without this,
ScriptState::ForCurrentRealm resolved to the calling context instead of
the target context, producing an incorrect wrapper.
Also switch to ScriptState::From with an explicit context argument to
make the intent clearer.
Adds spec coverage for VideoFrame crossing the bridge in both
directions and adds VideoFrame to the existing prototype checks.

EnterFullscreenModeForTab, RequestPointerLock, and RequestKeyboardLock
bind callbacks with base::Unretained(this); fullscreen also captures a
raw RenderFrameHost*. These callbacks may be invoked by the app's JS
permission handler after the WebContents or RenderFrameHost is destroyed.
Use GetWeakPtr() in all three call sites, and capture a
GlobalRenderFrameHostToken instead of the raw RenderFrameHost* for
fullscreen so the pointer is resolved and null-checked only when the
callback fires. Cancel in-flight permission requests from ~WebContents()
via a new ElectronPermissionManager::CancelPendingRequests()` so stale
callbacks are never handed back to JS.

fix: authenticate curl requests to googlesource in lint workflow
The "Download GN Binary" and "Download clang-format Binary" steps
fetch files from chromium.googlesource.com without passing
authentication cookies. When googlesource rate-limits or returns a
transient error (502), the HTML error page is piped into `base64 -d`,
causing `base64: invalid input`.
The `set-chromium-cookie` action already configures `~/.gitcookies`
in a prior step. Pass `-b ~/.gitcookies` to both `curl` calls so
they authenticate, matching what the cookie verification step itself
does.

ElectronRendererClient::DidCreateScriptContext (and the worker
equivalent) save Blink's fetch/Response/FormData/Request/Headers/
EventSource as temporary globalThis.blink* properties before Node
initialization may overwrite them. node/init.ts and worker/init.ts
restore the originals but previously never deleted the temporary
blink* globals.
They persisted as non-standard global pollution visible to page
content when contextIsolation is disabled -- a minor fingerprinting
signal and a bypass for any preload that wraps window.fetch (page
could call blinkfetch() instead).

The MAS safeStorage patch had three bugs:
1. `AddRandomPasswordToKeychain` was called with the unsuffixed account
name, so first launches always created the wrong keychain entry,
triggering an unnecessary migration on the next launch.
2. `FindGenericPassword` never populated the `SecKeychainItemRef` output
parameter — the SecItem API doesn't return that deprecated type.
3. `ItemDelete` was a no-op stub that always returned `noErr` without
actually deleting anything.
Fixes all three by using `suffixed_account_name` for new entries,
removing the unused `SecKeychainItemRef` parameter, and implementing
`ItemDelete` with `SecItemDelete` using the modern SecItem API.

inline as an argument to gdk_pixbuf_new_from_bytes(), which per
GTK docs does not take ownership of the GBytes - it adds its own

unreffed, leaking 4 x width x height bytes of pixel data on every

fix: clean up old staged updates before downloading new update
When checkForUpdates() is called while an update is already staged,
Squirrel creates a new temporary directory for the download without
cleaning up the old one. This can lead to disk usage growth when
new versions are released while the app hasn't restarted.
This adds a force parameter to pruneUpdateDirectories that bypasses
the AwaitingRelaunch state check. This is called before creating a
new temp directory, ensuring old staged updates are cleaned up.

docs: Update shell.md: Document that shell.trashItem requires backslashes
In Windows many functions relating to files (e.g. shell.openItem, the Node fs functions, as well as native Win32 APIs) will accept either type of slash / or \ as a folder separator.

Starting from Chromium 134.0.6989.0 (Electron 35.0.0-beta.5), the
NativeWidgetMacNSWindow class overrides accessibilityDocument to return
the web content URL from the accessibility tree, but doesn't fall back
to NSWindow's default behavior when that URL is empty.
This broke Electron's setRepresentedFilename() API - the file path was
still set on the NSWindow, but no longer exposed via the AXDocument
accessibility attribute that screen readers use.
This fix adds an accessibilityDocument override in ElectronNSWindow that
checks representedFilename first, falling back to Chromium's behavior
for web content URLs.

In 6399527761 we changed the path strings
that `node_modules.cc` operates on from single-byte to wide strings.
Unfortunately this means that `generic_path()` that the
"fix: ensure TraverseParent bails on resource path exit" patch was
calling was no longer a safe method to call on Windows if the underlying
string has unicode characters in it.
Here we fix it by using `ConvertGenericPathToUTF8` from the Node.js
internal utilities.

* docs(timelines): Correct v40.0.0 stable release date
On the Electron Timelines tutorial page (/docs/latest/tutorial/electron-timelines), there is a clear typo in the release schedule for v40.0.0.
The table currently lists the dates as:
* Alpha: 2025-Oct-30
* Beta: 2025-Dec-03
* **Stable: 2025-Oct-28**
This is logically incorrect, as the 'Stable' release date (Oct 28) is listed *before* both the 'Alpha' (Oct 30) and 'Beta' (Dec 03) dates for the same version.
This appears to be a copy-paste error, as the 'Stable' date (2025-Oct-28) is identical to the 'Stable' date for the v39.0.0 release in the preceding row.
This commit updates the 'Stable' date for v40.0.0 to its correct value, ensuring the timeline is accurate and logical.

trap handlers will be initialized once the user script starts
but before app#ready. Wasm compilation before that phase will
break trap handler registeration due to the check in
v8::internal::wasm::UpdateComputedInformation. For some reason
this issue was only visible in <= 39-x-y when pdf-reader.mjs
was being loaded, maybe some module loading logic changed in >= 40-x-y
which are based on Node.js v24.x. In either case, it is best to
align the loading of wasm module required for the tests in light
of changes to how we are registering the trap handlers for the

description: Guide for performing Chromium version upgrades in the Electron project. Use when working on the roller/chromium/main branch to fix patch conflicts during `e sync --3`. Covers the patch application workflow, conflict resolution, analyzing upstream Chromium changes, and proper commit formatting for patch fixes.
---
# Electron Chromium Upgrade: Phase One
## Summary
Run `e sync --3` repeatedly, fixing patch conflicts as they arise, until it succeeds. Then run `e patches all` and commit changes atomically.
## Success Criteria
Phase One is complete when:
-`e sync --3` exits with code 0 (no patch failures)
-`e patches all` has been run to export all changes
- All changes are committed per the commit guidelines below
Do not stop until these criteria are met.
**CRITICAL** Do not delete or skip patches unless 100% certain the patch is no longer needed. Complicated conflicts or hard to resolve issues should be presented to the user after you have exhausted all other options. Do not delete the patch just because you can't solve it.
## Context
The `roller/chromium/main` branch is created by automation to update Electron's Chromium dependency SHA. No work has been done to handle breaking changes between the old and new versions.
**Key directories:**
- Current directory: Electron repo (always run `e` commands here)
-`..` (parent): Chromium repo (where most patches apply)
-`patches/`: Patch files organized by target
-`docs/development/patches.md`: Patch system documentation
## Workflow
1. Delete the `.git/rr-cache` in both the `electron` and `..` folder to ensure no accidental rerere replays occur from before this upgrade phase attempt started
2. Run `e sync --3` (the `--3` flag enables 3-way merge, always required)
3. If succeeds → skip to step 6
4. If patch fails:
- Identify target repo and patch from error output
- Analyze failure (see references/patch-analysis.md)
- Fix conflict in target repo's working directory
- Run `git am --continue` in affected repo
- Repeat until all patches for that repo apply
- IMPORTANT: Once `git am --continue` succeeds you MUST run `e patches {target}` to export fixes
- Return to step 1
5. When `e sync --3` succeeds, run `e patches all`
6.**Read `references/phase-one-commit-guidelines.md` NOW**, then commit changes following those instructions exactly.
Before committing any Phase One changes, you MUST read `references/phase-one-commit-guidelines.md` and follow its instructions exactly.
## Commands Reference
| Command | Purpose |
|---------|---------|
| `e sync --3` | Clone deps and apply patches with 3-way merge |
| `git am --continue` | Continue after resolving conflict (run in target repo) |
| `e patches {target}` | Export commits from target repo to patch files |
| `e patches all` | Export all patches from all targets |
| `e patches --list-targets` | List targets and config paths |
| Creating new patch (rare, avoid) | Commit in target repo, then `e patches {target}` |
Fix existing patches 99% of the time rather than creating new ones.
## Patch Fixing Rules
1.**Preserve authorship**: Keep original author in TODO comments (from patch `From:` field)
2.**Never change TODO assignees**: `TODO(name)` must retain original name
3.**Update descriptions**: If upstream changed (e.g., `DCHECK` → `CHECK_IS_TEST`), update patch commit message to reflect current state
## Final Deliverable
After Phase One, write a summary of every change: what was fixed, why, reasoning, and Chromium CL links.
# Electron Chromium Upgrade: Phase Two
## Summary
Run `e build -k 999` repeatedly, fixing build issues as they arise, until it succeeds. Then run `e start --version` to validate Electron launches and commit changes atomically.
Run Phase Two immediately after Phase One is complete.
## Success Criteria
Phase Two is complete when:
-`e build -k 999` exits with code 0 (no build failures)
-`e start --version` has been run to check Electron launches
- All changes are committed per the commit guidelines below
Do not stop until these criteria are met. Do not delete code or features, never comment out code in order to take short cut. Make all existing code, logic and intention work.
## Context
The `roller/chromium/main` branch is created by automation to update Electron's Chromium dependency SHA. No work has been done to handle breaking changes between the old and new versions. Chromium APIs frequently are renamed or refactored. In every case the code in Electron must be updated to account for the change in Chromium, strongly avoid making changes to the code in chromium to fix Electrons build.
**Key directories:**
- Current directory: Electron repo (always run `e` commands here)
-`..` (parent): Chromium repo (do not touch this code to fix build issues, just read it to obtain context)
## Workflow
1. Run `e build -k 999` (the `-k 999` flag is a flag to ninja to say "do not stop until you find that many errors" it is an attempt to get as much error
context as possible for each time we run build)
2. If succeeds → skip to step 6
3. If build fails:
- Identify underlying file in "electron" from the compilation error message
- Analyze failure
- Fix build issue by adapting Electron's code for the change in Chromium
- Run `e build -t {target_that_failed}.o` to build just the failed target we were specifically fixing
- You can identify the target_that_failed from the failure line in the build log. E.g. `FAILED: 2e506007-8d5d-4f38-bdd1-b5cd77999a77 "./obj/electron/chromium_src/chrome/process_singleton_posix.o" CXX obj/electron/chromium_src/chrome/process_singleton_posix.o` the target name is `obj/electron/chromium_src/chrome/process_singleton_posix.o`
- **Read `references/phase-two-commit-guidelines.md` NOW**, then commit changes following those instructions exactly.
- Return to step 1
4.**CRITICAL**: After ANY commit (especially patch commits), immediately run `git status` in the electron repo
- Look for other modified `.patch` files that only have index/hunk header changes
- These are dependent patches affected by your fix
The build output is extremely verbose. Filtering is essential to catch errors quickly.
## Commands Reference
| Command | Purpose |
|---------|---------|
| `e build -k 999` | Builds Electron and won't stop until either all targets attempted or 999 errors found |
| `e build -t {target}.o` | Build just one specific target to verify a fix |
| `e start --version` | Validate Electron launches after successful build |
## Two Types of Build Fixes
### A. Patch Fixes (for files in chromium_src or patched Chromium files)
When the error is in a file that Electron patches (check with `grep -l "filename" patches/chromium/*.patch`):
1. Edit the file in the Chromium source tree (e.g., `/src/chrome/browser/...`)
2. Create a fixup commit targeting the original patch commit:
```bash
cd .. # to chromium repo
git add <modified-file>
git commit --fixup=<original-patch-commit-hash>
GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR=: git rebase --autosquash --autostash -i <commit>^
3. Export the updated patch: e patches chromium
4. Commit the updated patch file in the electron repo following the `references/phase-one-commit-guidelines.md`, then commit changes following those instructions exactly. **READ THESE GUIDELINES BEFORE COMMITTING THESE CHANGES**
To find the original patch commit to fixup: `git log --oneline | grep -i "keyword from patch name"`
The base commit for rebase is the Chromium commit before patches were applied. Find it by checking the `refs/patches/upstream-head` ref.
B. Electron Code Fixes (for files in shell/, electron/, etc.)
When the error is in Electron's own source code:
1. Edit files directly in the electron repo
2. Commit directly (no patch export needed)
Dependent Patch Updates
IMPORTANT: When you modify a patch, other patches that apply to the same file may have their hunk headers invalidated. After committing a patch fix:
1. Run git status in the electron repo
2. Look for other modified .patch files with just index/hunk header changes
Only follow these instructions if there are uncommitted changes to `patches/` after Phase One succeeds.
Ignore other instructions about making commit messages, our guidelines are CRITICALLY IMPORTANT and must be followed.
## Atomic Commits
For each fix made to a patch, create a separate commit:
```
fix(patch-conflict): {concise title}
{Brief explanation, 1-2 paragraphs max}
Ref: {Chromium CL link}
```
IMPORTANT: Ensure that any changes made to patch content as a result of a change in Chromium is committed individually. Each change should have it's own commit message and it's own REF.
IMPORTANT: Try really hard to find the CL reference per the instructions below. Each change you made should in theory have been in response to a change made in Chromium that you identified or can identify. Try for a while to identify and include the ref in the commit message. Do not give up easily.
## Finding CL References
Use `git log` or `git blame` on Chromium source files. Look for:
Only follow these instructions if there are uncommitted changes in the Electron repo after any fixes are made during Phase Two that result a target that was failing, successfully building.
Ignore other instructions about making commit messages, our guidelines are CRITICALLY IMPORTANT and must be followed.
## Two Commit Types
### For Electron Source Changes (shell/, electron/, etc.)
```
{CL-Number}: {concise description of API change}
{Brief explanation of what upstream changed and how Electron was adapted}
Ref: {Chromium CL link}
```
IMPORTANT: Ensure that any change made to electron as a result of a change in Chromium is committed individually. Each change should have it's own commit message and it's own REF. Logically grouped into commits that make sense rather than one giant commit.
IMPORTANT: Try really hard to find the CL reference per the instructions below. Each change you made should in theory have been in response to a change made in Chromium that you identified or can identify. Try for a while to identify and include the ref in the commit message. Do not give up easily.
You may include multiple "Ref" links if required.
For a CL link in the format `https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/2958369` the "CL-Number" is `2958369`
### For Patch Updates (patches/chromium/*.patch)
Use the same fixup workflow as Phase One:
1. Fix in Chromium source tree
2. Fixup commit + rebase
3. Export with `e patches chromium`
4. Commit the patch file:
```
fix(patch-update): {concise description}
{Brief explanation}
Ref: {Chromium CL link}
```
## Dependent Patch Header Updates
After any patch modification, check for other affected patches:
```bash
git status
# If other .patch files show as modified with only hunk header changes:
git add patches/
git commit -m "chore: update patch hunk headers"
```
## Finding CL References
Use git log or git blame on Chromium source files. Look for:

Electron embeds Chromium (rendering) and Node.js (backend) to enable desktop apps with web technologies. The parent directory (`../`) is the Chromium source tree.
### Process Model
Electron has two primary process types, mirroring Chromium:
- **Renderer process** (`shell/renderer/` + `lib/renderer/`): Runs web content in BrowserWindows
### Native ↔ JavaScript Bridge
Each API is implemented as a C++/JS pair:
- C++ side: `shell/browser/api/electron_api_{name}.cc/.h` — uses `gin::Wrappable` and `ObjectTemplateBuilder`
- JS side: `lib/browser/api/{name}.ts` — exports the module, registered in `lib/browser/api/module-list.ts`
- Binding: `NODE_LINKED_BINDING_CONTEXT_AWARE(electron_browser_{name}, Initialize)` in C++ and registered in `shell/common/node_bindings.cc`
- Type declaration: `typings/internal-ambient.d.ts` maps `process._linkedBinding('electron_browser_{name}')`
### Patches System
Electron patches upstream dependencies (Chromium, Node.js, V8, etc.) rather than forking them. Patches live in `patches/` organized by target, with `patches/config.json` mapping directories to repos.

`navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia` does not work on macOS for audio capture due to a fundamental limitation whereby apps that want to access the system's audio require a [signed kernel extension](https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Security/Conceptual/System_Integrity_Protection_Guide/KernelExtensions/KernelExtensions.html). Chromium, and by extension Electron, does not provide this.
### macOS versions 14.2 or higher
It is possible to circumvent this limitation by capturing system audio with another macOS app like Soundflower and passing it through a virtual audio input device. This virtual device can then be queried with `navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia`.
`NSAudioCaptureUsageDescription` Info.plist key must be added in order for audio to be captured by
`desktopCapturer`. If instead you are running Electron from another program like a terminal or IDE
then that parent program must contain the Info.plist key.
This is in order to facillitate use of Apple's new [CoreAudio Tap API](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/CoreAudio/capturing-system-audio-with-core-audio-taps#Configure-the-sample-code-project) by Chromium.

As of Electron `v39.0.0-beta.4`, Chromium [made Apple's new `CoreAudio Tap API` the default](https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/ad17e8f8b93d5f34891b06085d373a668918255e)
for desktop audio capture. There is no fallback to the older `Screen & System Audio Recording`
permissions system even if [CoreAudio Tap API](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/CoreAudio/capturing-system-audio-with-core-audio-taps) stream creation fails.
If you need to continue using `Screen & System Audio Recording` permissions for `desktopCapturer`
on macOS versions 14.2 and later, you can apply a Chromium feature flag to force use of that older
permissions system:
```js
// main.js (right beneath your require/import statments)
`navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia` does not work on macOS versions 12.7.6 and prior for audio
capture due to a fundamental limitation whereby apps that want to access the system's audio require

provide APIs to capture desktop audio without the need for a signed kernel extension.

* **Removed:** An API or feature was removed, and is no longer supported by Electron.
## Planned Breaking API Changes (42.0)
### Behavior Changed: Offscreen rendering will use `1.0` as default device scale factor.
Previously, OSR used the primary display's device scale factor for rendering, which made the output frame size vary across users.
Developers had to manually calculate the correct size using `screen.getPrimaryDisplay().scaleFactor`. We now provide an optional property
`webPreferences.offscreen.deviceScaleFactor` to specify a custom value when creating an OSR window. At first, if the property is not set, it defaults
to the primary display's scale factor (preserving the old behavior). Starting from Electron 42, the default will change to a constant value of `1.0`
for more consistent output sizes.
## Planned Breaking API Changes (41.0)
### Behavior Changed: PDFs no longer create a separate WebContents
Previously, PDF resources created a separate guest [WebContents](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/web-contents) for rendering. Now, PDFs are rendered within the same WebContents instead. If you have code to detect PDF resources, use the [frame tree](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/web-frame-main) instead of WebContents.
Under the hood, Chromium [enabled](https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/7239572) a feature that changes PDFs to use out-of-process iframes (OOPIFs) instead of the `MimeHandlerViewGuest` extension.
### Behavior Changed: Updated Cookie Change Cause in the Cookie 'changed' Event
We have updated the [cookie](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/cookies#event-changed) change cause in the cookie 'changed' event.
When a new cookie is set, the change cause is `inserted`.
When a cookie is deleted, the change cause remains `explicit`.
When the cookie being set is identical to an existing one (same name, domain, path, and value, with no actual changes), the change cause is `inserted-no-change-overwrite`.
When the value of the cookie being set remains unchanged but some of its attributes are updated, such as the expiration attribute, the change cause will be `inserted-no-value-change-overwrite`.
## Planned Breaking API Changes (40.0)
### Deprecated: `clipboard` API access from renderer processes
### Behavior Changed: `NSAudioCaptureUsageDescription` should be included in your app's Info.plist file to use `desktopCapturer` (🍏 macOS ≥14.2)
Per [Chromium update](https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/ad17e8f8b93d5f34891b06085d373a668918255e) which enables Apple's newer [CoreAudio Tap API](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/CoreAudio/capturing-system-audio-with-core-audio-taps#Configure-the-sample-code-project) by default, you now must have `NSAudioCaptureUsageDescription` defined in your `Info.plist` to use `desktopCapturer`.
Electron's `desktopCapturer` will create a dead audio stream if the new permission is absent however no errors or warnings will occur. This is partially a side-effect of Chromium not falling back to the older `Screen & System Audio Recording` permissions system if the new system fails.
