The release of Lanemu P2P VPN 0.13 has taken place — a decentralized virtual private network that operates on a Peer-To-Peer basis, where participants connect to each other rather than through a central server. Network participants can find each other via BitTorrent trackers or BitTorrent DHT, or through other network participants (peer exchange). The application is a free and open-source alternative to VPN Hamachi, written in Java (with some components in C) and distributed under the GNU LGPL 3.0 license. It supports running on Windows, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, and Mac OS.
Changes in version 0.13:
- Experimental support for macOS has been added for x86_64 and arm64 architectures. Running on macOS requires additional installation of the tap driver, unlike Linux or FreeBSD.
- Security has been enhanced: different AES keys are used for sending/receiving packets. The RSA key size has increased from 2048 to 4096, making this version incompatible with previous versions.
- The algorithm for detecting 'malicious peers' in the DHT network has been improved: the ability to identify such peers simultaneously has been added.
- The dropdown menu for the 'Known IPs' tab has been improved: options for copying have been added. an IP address and the peer ID.
- A button has been added to reconnect to all addresses from the 'Known IPs' tab.
- To enhance application performance in some games, the network interface metric in Windows has been changed from 10 to 1.
- Colors for peer nodes in the 'Peer Graph' tab have been added. The colors adapt to the interface theme.
- A menu item 'Disconnect Peer' has been added to the dropdown menu in the main application window.
- A bug has been fixed where empty fields in the peer table disrupted filter functionality.
- Application dependencies have been updated.
- Minor interface improvements and fixes have been made.
