![Release 126.0.6478.122.1 · GrapheneOS/Vanadium](https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/5c4bfd07-03b3-40fa-8b0c-82f88ae6f8f0.png?format=webp&thumbnail=256)
Users will need to enable JavaScript JIT compilation for sites requiring WebAssembly again via the permission menu next to the URL due to us reverting the upstream security regression which resulted in this working by default. Unfortunately, Chromium still doesn't have a WebAssembly interpreter like Edge and got this working by rolling back the security of the API used to disable JIT compilation for their desktop V8 Optimizer toggle.
Changes in version 126.0.6478.122.1:
- restore fully disabling the JavaScript JIT compiler by default since Chromium changed the definition of disabling the JIT compiler into only disabling the 2 higher tiers of JIT compilation without disabling baseline JIT compilation which does not avoid dynamically creating executable native code
- add support for language-specific content filters automatically enabled when the language is selected (EasyList Germany has been added to the configuration app for testing the implementation)
A full list of changes from the previous release (version 126.0.6478.122.0) is available through the Git commit log between the releases.
This update is available to GrapheneOS users via our app repository and will also be bundled into the next OS release. Vanadium isn't yet officially available for users outside GrapheneOS, although we plan to do that eventually. It won't be able to provide the WebView outside GrapheneOS and will have missing hardening and other features.
