Pacenote v0.5.28

Pacenote runs on Electron 43, with the security fixes Electron 39 no longer gets, and Todo's rows sit still when they load.

brew update && brew upgrade --cask pacenote

Security

  • Electron 43. The app moves from Electron 39 to 43 (Chromium 150, Node 24), a line that still gets fixes. It closes four Electron advisories: popups and windows that dropped the sandbox restrictions of the page that opened them, file and HTTP handlers that allowed cross-origin reads, and Node.js in a <webview>'s workers.
  • Notifications go through macOS's current API. Pacenote is signed, so its notifications show as before; if macOS asks, allow them in System Settings > Notifications.
  • Build tools. vite 6.4.4 and a patched CSS selector parser, for the app's own build. Nothing you run changes.

Also

  • Todo holds still. Each task row grew a pixel when the list finished loading, since v0.5.27's type roles; the placeholder rows are now exactly as tall.
