2022-07-30 18:24:51 +0000 UTC View PostThis build changes two core Sandboxie mechanics.
It reworks the hooking mechanism to enable proper unhooking on dll unload which should solve various compatibility issues
It lets Sandboxie to use custom logon tokens instead of the anonymous one, the option is on by default in the test build and can be controlled with the "SandboxieLogon" setting

On the private github there is now the installer for the build 1.4.0 available https://github.com/DavidXanatos/Sandboxie-Next/releases/tag/v1.4.0
I have set up a private repository on Github which will contain upcoming builds of sandboxie often one or two version ahead.
Tears starting at 10€ are eligible.
Currently its 1.4.xx, see changelog:
This release changes how sandboxie marks deleted host files as deleted, instead of creating dummy entries it uses an internal data structure to keep the stat of changes to the host file system. With the new mechanics it is possible to rename folders and keys properly.
This new behavior needs to be enabled by specifying UseFileDeleteV2=y sand UseRe...
This build fixes a couple of issues, but also introduces a major change in how sandboxie controls access to process memory.
Before this build sandboxie allowed sandboxed programs to read the memory of any unsandboxed program belonging to the current user, this is obviously a bad idea if your goals is not only infection prevention but also data protection. Hence with 1.0.16 onwards sandboxie will not allow for PROCESS_VM_READ on unsandboxed processes or processes ...

2022-01-27 21:20:30 +0000 UTC View PostThis build fixed many issues, and adds a new functionality: "BreakoutProcess=program.exe" which allow to preset programs to be able to escape a sandbox, hence this is a feature rather for compartmentalization then security, but the way its implemented, a breakout process, will be captured by an other sandbox if it is configured as a forced process for it. So a possibly security related use case would be to have the a box dedicated to run your web browser &n...
2022-01-18 09:41:52 +0000 UTC View PostThere is a new build of sandboxie-plus it fixes many issues and adds some functionality, i would say its the first properly final build in the 1.0.x line.
Download: https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie/releases/tag/1.0.6
Version 1.0.0 is here and brings a lot of new major features, hence its a pre release, test it and expect new bugs as well, at least in the new features. I expect the final being 1.1.0 or so
The first major feature is Privacy Mode, here most of the PC is set to be treated like a Write[File/Key]Path meaning the sandbox locations are writable but the unsandboxed locations are not readable. The Hard disk appears empty except for C:\Windows and C:\Program Fil...

2021-08-29 19:35:46 +0000 UTC View PostThis build adds a new functionality to use Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) to implement a per sandbox firewall.
This functionality needs to be enabled in the global Sandboxie settings, and the driver needs to be reloaded (or the PC rebooted) for the feature to be activated. Once this is done the firewall rules which can be configured in the network options of each sandbox, will be enforced by the driver.
If the WFP support is not enabled the same rules still can...
