🔧 CRITICAL BUG FIXES IMPLEMENTED

1. VM Parsing Error - FIXED ✅

Problem: Application was failing to parse the updated list of VMs from Hyper-V, causing crashes or showing stale data.

Solution Implemented:

• Enhanced PowerShell JSON output handling with better error catching
• Added robust JSON parsing with fallback mechanisms
• Implemented proper empty result handling
• Added HTML escaping to prevent injection issues
• Fixed the Uptime formatting to handle all cases properly
• Added better error messages for debugging

Key Fix in renderer.js:

// Clean JSON output and handle edge cases
let jsonStr = result.stdout.trim();
if (!jsonStr || jsonStr === '' || jsonStr === 'null') {
jsonStr = '[]';
}
// Fallback JSON extraction if output contains extra text
const jsonMatch = jsonStr.match(/\[[\s\S]*\]|\{[\s\S]*\}/);

2. Memory Leak in Stats Loop - FIXED ✅

• Optimized the stats update interval
• Added proper cleanup on view switches

3. Double-Click VM Connect - ENHANCED ✅

• Added double-click functionality to connect to VMs directly
• Improved VMConnect integration

🔐 SECURITY UPDATES (AI COMMUNICATION HARDENING)

Summary of Security Changes

The AI assistant communication layer has been re-architected to improve isolation, reduce attack surface, and prevent unintended access to local AI services.

Key security enhancements include:

AI communication is now fully isolated from the UI layer

Sensitive connection details are never exposed to the user-facing context

All AI requests are routed through a controlled, validated internal boundary

Message size limits and validation are enforced before processing

Direct access paths between the UI and local AI services have been removed
