Eliminated an unnecessary check for HttpStatusCode.NotFound in AssemblyLoader.cs, as EnsureSuccessStatusCode already throws for non-success responses. Updated Catswords.Phantomizer.dll.gz to reflect the latest changes.
Changed AddIntegrityHash to log a warning and return when given a null or whitespace hash, instead of throwing an exception. This prevents unnecessary exceptions and improves robustness.
Updated AssemblyLoader to pass HttpClient explicitly to GetStreamFromUrl for improved flexibility and testability. Simplified GZip download logic to use the new method signature. Updated binary resource Catswords.Phantomizer.dll.gz.
Added case-insensitive parsing for SecurityProtocolType and enforced that integrity hashes must be loaded before using the curl fallback. This ensures more robust protocol handling and prevents curl.exe from being used without prior integrity verification.
Removed all telemetry-related code and configuration from WelsonJS.Launcher, including source files, resource strings, and app.config keys. Enhanced AssemblyLoader to support fallback to curl.exe for downloads on legacy Windows, with integrity hash verification. Updated documentation and resource files to reflect the new curl fallback mechanism and added the required integrity hash for curl.exe.
Introduced EnsureSecurityProtocols and EnsureSecurityProtocolByName methods to programmatically enable TLS 1.2 and optionally TLS 1.3 if available. This improves security and compatibility by ensuring required protocols are set at runtime, with logging for protocol changes and error handling.
