    ClarityFilter v4.0 - Major Security & Stability Update

    🚀 What's New in v4.0

    This major update brings significant security improvements, bug fixes, and enhanced stability across both Chrome and Mozilla versions of ClarityFilter.

    🔒 Security Enhancements

    1. Enhanced PIN Protection
    • Upgraded to PBKDF2: Replaced simple SHA-256 with PBKDF2 (150,000 iterations) for much stronger PIN hashing
    • Salt Consistency: Standardized salt separator format across all components

    2. Input Validation & Sanitization
    • Import Security: Added comprehensive validation for JSON imports with file size limits (1MB) and rate limiting (5-second cooldown)
    • ReDoS Protection: Added regex complexity limits to prevent ReDoS attacks
    • Content Sanitization: Enhanced input validation with length limits and HTML sanitization
    • Synthetic Event Protection: Added e.isTrusted checks to prevent malicious keyboard event injection

    3. Content Security Policy (CSP)
    • Tightened CSP: Removed unsafe-inline and moved inline styles to CSS classes
    • XSS Prevention: Enhanced protection against cross-site scripting attacks

    🐛 Bug Fixes

    1. Keyboard Shortcut Issues
    • Chrome Manifest V3 Fix: Resolved service worker lifecycle issues that prevented keyboard shortcuts from working
    • Race Condition Fix: Eliminated stale-read issues between background and content scripts
    • Atomic Toggle: Implemented atomic toggle operations to prevent double-flipping

    2. PIN Management
    • PIN Removal Bug: Fixed issue where users couldn't remove PINs after setting them
    • PIN Verification: Resolved inconsistencies in PIN verification across different components
    • Storage Consistency: Fixed missing PIN algorithm and iteration fields in storage

    3. Import/Export
    • Format Flexibility: Enhanced JSON import to handle additional fields (mode, pixelCell) gracefully
    • URL Validation: Improved URL validation to accept domain-only entries (e.g., "reddit.com")
    • Error Handling: Better error messages and validation feedback

    ⚡ Performance Improvements

    1. Service Worker Optimization
    • Keep-Alive Strategy: Implemented aggressive service worker keep-alive for Chrome Manifest V3
    • Reduced Quota Errors: Added rate limiting to prevent MAX_WRITE_OPERATIONS_PER_MINUTE errors
    • Memory Management: Improved memory usage and cleanup

    2. Content Script Efficiency
    • Reduced Redundancy: Eliminated duplicate keyboard handlers and message processing
    • Optimized Scanning: Improved DOM scanning performance with better node limits

    🎨 User Experience Improvements

    1. Enhanced Status Messages
    • Visual Feedback: Added color-coded status messages (green for success, red for errors, blue for info)
    • Better Design: Improved styling with borders, shadows, and smooth transitions

    ClarityFilter – Release Notes (v0.3.7)

    ✨ New Features

    Made it more precise. It was happening that the entire page is blocked if it contains just one term. Now it targets parent element more precisely.
