Setup Analyzer: SFX and embedded installers

  • Detect supported 7-Zip and WinRAR/RAR SFX wrappers as outer containers.
  • Statically extract supported SFX payloads without executing uploaded installers.
  • ZIP-compatible SFX files are handled by Python directly.
  • Container image now includes 7-Zip and unar / lsar for additional SFX formats.
  • Recursively analyze embedded installer candidates up to a configurable depth.
  • Rank embedded MSI and known EXE installer technologies while penalizing uninstallers and common prerequisite packages.
  • Display the selected embedded installer and alternate candidates in Setup Analyzer.
  • Preserve the complete selected payload tree in an internal deployment ZIP so CAB files and subdirectories remain available.
  • Software-package install scripts expand the payload on the target and run the selected installer from its original relative directory.
  • Add extraction safety limits for total expanded size, file count, path traversal, symbolic links and recursion depth.

New environment settings

SETUP_ANALYZER_MAX_EXTRACTED_MB=8192
SETUP_ANALYZER_MAX_EXTRACTED_FILES=20000
SETUP_ANALYZER_MAX_SFX_DEPTH=2

Embedded-installer selection remains heuristic and should be verified on a test asset before broad deployment.

Software package cleanup

  • Added a Delete button directly to every row of the software-package overview.
  • Broken packages that show a storage error can be deleted without opening their detail page.
  • If associated software jobs exist, the overview confirmation explicitly states that those jobs will be deleted too.
  • Package summary handling now keeps the overview usable when either the manifest or package-size scan fails.

Architecture detection fix

  • Distinguishes installer-launcher PE architecture from the target software architecture.
  • Known setup wrappers such as NSIS/Inno no longer classify a package as x86 merely because their launcher stub is PE32.
  • Explicit x64/x86/ARM64 package filename hints are used as target-architecture evidence.
  • The analyzer shows the launcher architecture and architecture source separately in technical details.
  • Verified with npp.8.9.8.Installer.x64.exe: NSIS launcher x86, target package x64.

Dispatcher ACL retry fix

  • Upload retry no longer reapplies directory ACLs recursively to files already uploaded into the job directory.
  • Windows job-directory ACLs are now applied only to the directory itself; uploaded files inherit the directory permissions normally.
  • Package-file retry removes only the failed target file and leaves run.ps1 and other package files untouched.
  • A remote script preflight now logs existence, size, readability and Windows ACLs before execution.
  • If the uploaded run.ps1 is not readable, the dispatcher stops with a dedicated diagnostic error before trying to launch PowerShell.

Total Commander SFX profile

  • Recognize Total Commander's self-extracting ZIP installer through its embedded INSTALL.INF.
  • Read product name, version, publisher, target architecture and running-process hint from embedded installer metadata.
  • Use /AH1 as the unattended default (automatic + hidden installation) and expose /A1 as the visible automatic alternative.
  • Keep the outer SFX executable as the deployment installer; its embedded CAB/INF files are installation data, not a replacement setup executable.
  • Recognize architecture suffixes attached directly to version numbers such as tcmd1156x64.exe.

PDF24 online bootstrapper profile

  • Detect the small pdf24-creator-installer.exe bootstrapper through multiple vendor-specific static markers instead of reporting an unknown EXE at 25%.
  • Distinguish the bootstrapper from the full PDF24 Creator Inno Setup package.
  • Report PDF24 Creator, geek software GmbH and the bootstrapper's architecture-selecting behavior (x86+x64+arm64).
  • Do not misreport the bootstrapper's own 1.0.0 file version as the PDF24 Creator version, because the bootstrapper downloads the current Creator release at deployment time.
  • Surface /SILENT with medium command confidence and warn that this online bootstrapper is network-dependent and version-unpinned; prefer the offline EXE/MSI for reproducible managed deployment.
