Bug Fixes & Improvements

Comprehensive stability and reliability improvements

Detailed Changelog
Module Issue Fixed Impact
Environment Fixed error propagation in os.Setenv and os.Unsetenv Errors now properly reported instead of silent failures
Package Fixed audit drift detection logic Accurate package version mismatch detection
Network Added TCP port range validation (1-65535) Prevents invalid port scanning attempts
Filesystem Implemented symlink loop detection Prevents infinite loops in recursive operations
Console Enhanced AllocConsole initialization and ANSI handling Better independence from desktop/Start menu launches

Upgrade Guide

Migrating from v1.4.x to v1.5.0

✅ Fully Backward Compatible

All existing INDUS commands work identically. No breaking changes to command syntax or behavior.

🔄 New Features are Opt-In

System command passthrough only activates when you use unrecognized commands. Native INDUS commands always take precedence.

🎯 Recommended for All Users

This release fixes critical bugs and adds essential features for production use. Upgrade is highly recommended.
