Steg News

Steg-1.1.0.0 Released

All versions are based on Qt-5.12.7, except for the Linux 32 bit version witch is based on Qt-5.5.1.

This is a major release. The update is highly recommended!

The most important change is the porting of the program to Qt 5 and some bug fix and security enhancements.
Now Steg does not run anymore on WindowsXP: the minimum required Windows version is now Windows 7.

Mind that this release break compatibility with the previous releases!

For this reasons the last previous release is still available in an "all inclusive"
archive downloadable here.

Changes:

  • Porting to Qt 5 Framework with tons of enhancements under the hood.
  • Now Steg is linked to Crypto++-8.2 library.
  • Now Steg is linked to libjpeg-9d library.
  • Support for TIFF images format.
  • Better support for some uncompressed image formats.
  • AppImage format for GNU/Linux versions.
  • The common files are now included in all Steg pakages.
  • Updates to the Help page.
  • Fixed a bug that, in some cases, when you try to extract data from images without
    any data hidden, the application crash.

Steg is free for everyone to download.

Steg-1.0.0.2 Released

Based on Qt-4.8.4

This is a bug fix release.

The most important change is the fix for a serious bug that prevent Steg to work properly when hidden data are
greater than 50 Kbyte (Thanks to Oleg for bug report). This is the major reason for Steg 1.0.0.2.
For this occasion I also update to Qt-4.8.4. ;-)

Changes:

  • Steg now is linked to Qt-4.8.4
  • Fixed the "50Kb" bug mentioned above.
  • Fixed a bug that prevent, under some conditions, the command "revert" to work correctly.
  • Fixed a bug on the "Cancel" button of the progress dialog box.
  • Fixed a bug on the "Cancel" button of the "RSA key-pair generator" directory selection dialog box.
  • Updates to the Help page.

Compatible with previous versions.

Steg is free for everyone to download.

P.S.: I'm working on a development release based on the new Qt-5.x Framework.

Steg-1.0.0.1 Released

Based on Qt-4.8.3

There isn't a complete changelog, as usual. :-)
The most important change is that I removed previous limitations.

Other changes:

  • The path where Steg saves its settings is shown after the eula agreement.
  • When data are extracted a readme file is saved containing a reference to Steg's website.
  • Updates to the Help page.

Steg-0.9.8.2 Released

Based on Qt-4.8.1

This is the first public version!
I have done some tests and so far it work fine.

I noticed some orthographic mistakes but... too late for Steg's internal help,
I made the corrections only to the online Features & Description, damn laziness! :-)
