A new release ( v0.9.0 ) of our SAFE Browser (not Peruse, but our Beaker Browser) compatible with the Alpha 2 network has now been published.

The main goal of this release is to upgrade Electron to v1.7.11 which solves a recently reported remote code execution vulnerability (on Windows only) for Electron applications implementing custom protocol handlers like in the case of our browser app (more details can be found here).

We also applied the same set of changes, enhancements and fixes made to the DOM API in Peruse during the last few weeks (recently delivered with Peruse v0.4.1). Thus this new version is fully compatible with previous versions of the example apps, as well as with any web app that is compatible with Beaker Browser v0.8.x and Peruse v0.4.1 .

The documentation for the DOM API has been also updated accordingly: http://docs.maidsafe.net/beaker-plugin-safe-app
