A version spoofing test — Vivaldi Browser snapshot 4078.4

Wait 5 sec.

Version spoofing, a reminder and a testAs mentioned previously, Vivaldi follows Chromium’s Extended Stable Release (ESR) channel, which updates less often than the common stable channel but keeps the same security level. Google offers this channel for organizations that prefer fewer disruptive changes, and it is fully supported and secure.Many sites are unaware of ESR and sometimes warn users that their browser is outdated near the end of an ESR cycle, since the version number lags behind the stable stream. A few sites even block browsers they label as insecure.To avoid this, we added a feature that spoofs a higher version number at the end of an ESR cycle. The first version of this feature leaked the real Chromium version in some cases, but we believe those issues are now fixed. In this snapshot, we want to test the spoofing again to make sure it works reliably and does not cause unexpected problems.Changelog[Chromium] Update to 148.0.7778.273 ESR (includes security fixes from 149.0.7827.155/156)[Panel Editor] Improve look of flexible spacer (VB-127922)[Tabs] Can’t remove the color of the tab stack unless you release unstack (VB-128666)[Themes][macOS] Color accent color not updated (VB-129087)[User Agent][Site Compatibility] Spoofing the version number breaks for tabs opened as child tabs and/or iframes (VB-128809)[User Agent][Site Compatibility] Set Chromium version spoof to 149.0.7827.155: to test spoofingDownload (4078.4)Windows 10+ 64-bitWindows 10+ ARM64macOS 12+Linux 64-bit: DEB | RPM | TAR [*]Linux ARM64: DEB | RPM | TAR [*]Main photo by Ruarí Ødegaard.
