<![CDATA[[Added] Lazarus - App-Request]]>Name of the app:

  • Lazarus

File Path:

  • C:\lazarus\lazarus.exe

Developer:

  • Lazarus and Free Pascal Team

Website:

Download Site:

App-Icon: in ICO format

0_1529746349935_Lazarus_Icon_256x256.ico

Notes:
The version number displayed in Help -> About is 1.8.4.
This version is also shown in the application window (in the title bar) and also on the website.

But the properties of the EXE I see:

File version:      1.8.0.5
Product version:   1.8.0.2
Assembly version:

So I have no idea how to determine the version number correctly.

In VulnDetect I see the version 1.8.0.4, in Lazarus and on the website (and also in the in version.inc) I see 1.8.4.
Will that be changed?

We have to wait for the next update or until a new user with an older version joins, and then we fix it on a per rule basis.

It would be easier when the correct version is stored in the lazarus.exe because the update manager reads this information from EXE files and all other products work this way.

I received the following answer:

This should normally be done. But as it appears errors can happen. (It is not automated).
Anyway this can only be fixed for the next version.

So it is up to you if you want to read out local files for some special apps or if you just override the version number (like you have done it for many other apps).

Here the content of the file C:\lazarus\ide\version.inc:

'1.8.4'

But such a thing would require a change to the binary agent, and changing the agent to support individual apps is not feasible.
And, we also have to be careful that we don't end up reading files that contain information that isn't relevant.
That said, we did identify a few apps where we (may) need either registry info or some info from a specific XML or INI type file. Whether we will do that or not, is not certain, as we have other ways, where we can identify specific versions of apps like Lazarus (and Nvidia and ...), it just requires a bit more feedback from you and other users. And I suppose, as we get more users, then that will be even more rapid and reliable.
But, Lazarus is added to the list of apps that is under consideration for such special treatment (as in reading more info from specific files). Can you email me the contents of those two files?

($LazarusDir)\components\ide\version.inc
($LazarusDir)\components\lazutils\lazversion.pas

Is this a practicable way?
I have to test tonight id the version is entered there correctly and in what format.
I will post my results here.

But let's see which approach is more practical on a per program basis.

That shall be interesting rules to maintain. But I will double check, after your next inspection.

0_1529751336646_Lazarus_Version_Win10.png

Same for GeForce Experience so maybe considering the version information stored in the Windows 10 system settings would be helpful!

I keep you updated here.
