Frida 16.4.0 Released ∞
release
oleavr
This release is packing some exciting new things. Let’s dive right in.
CoreDevice
As mentioned in the 16.3.0 release notes, @hsorbo and I were working on submitting a patch for the Linux kernel’s CDC-NCM driver to make it compatible with Apple’s private network interface. This has since gone upstream, and will be part of Linux 6.11.
In the meantime, and for those of you using Frida on Windows, we have just implemented a minimal user-mode driver that Frida now uses when it detects that the kernel doesn’t provide one. We leveraged lwIP to also do Ethernet and IPv6 entirely in user space. The result is that Frida can support CoreDevice on any platform supported by libusb.
