fs@2.7.0

Oct 10, 2026
  • a934743b (#3637) Added the scopeDroppedPaths plugin config option (plugins > fs > scopeDroppedPaths in tauri.conf.json). Set it to false to stop adding the paths dropped onto any window to the fs scope, which otherwise gives every webview with an fs permission access to them (directories recursively). Defaults to true, the current behaviour.
  • 085a0283 (#3636) Fixed a panic on Android when a content provider returns no file descriptor for a content:// URI (e.g. virtual files). The fs command now fails with an error instead.
  • f81f0447 (#3635) Fixed reading uncompressed Android assets ($RESOURCE files such as images or audio that are stored uncompressed in the APK) returning the bytes of the APK instead of the asset. Assets are now always read from a copy in the app cache, like compressed ones.
  • e03dca60 (#3628) startAccessingSecurityScopedResource and stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource now accept absolute paths on iOS, as documented, instead of silently doing nothing unless given a file:// URL.
  • 5de7ebfc (#3634) Security: the open command no longer accepts a customFlags option from the webview. It was not part of the JavaScript types and let the webview pass arbitrary open(2) flags (e.g. O_TRUNC) to files it may only read. OpenOptionsExt::custom_flags still works from Rust.
  • 5e6c023a (#3626) FileHandle.read no longer allocates a buffer of the requested size up front: the length is capped to the rest of the file (64 MiB for files of unknown size), an allocation failure is reported as an error instead of aborting the app, and only the bytes that were read are sent back to the webview.
  • 3a900017 (#3627) Security: the fs scope check now resolves symlinks in the ancestors of paths that do not exist yet, and resolves relative symlink targets against the link's directory instead of the process working directory. Previously a new file created below a symlinked directory inside the scope (writeFile, mkdir, create, rename, copyFile, …) was written outside of the scope. Deny patterns now also apply to the path as given, so they can name a symlink, and a path whose symlinks cannot be resolved (e.g. a loop) is rejected.
  • 77d00a4f (#3633) FileHandle.seek now rejects a negative offset with SeekMode.Start instead of seeking to a huge position.
  • 5c144e74 (#3631) Fixed readTextFileLines with a UTF-16 encoding splitting lines on a 0x0A 0x00 (LE) or 0x00 0x0A (BE) byte sequence that is not aligned on a code unit, e.g. ਗĀ, which garbled every following line.
  • dcc8cb03 (#3629) Fixed writeFile with a ReadableStream leaving the end of the previous contents in place when the new data is shorter. The file is now truncated first unless append is set, like when writing a buffer.
