Bumps the electron group with 2 updates in the / directory: electron and electron-to-chromium.

Updates electron from 43.4.1 to 44.1.1

Release notes

electron v44.1.1

Release Notes for v44.1.1

Fixes

Fixed chrome.tabs.query() returning tab url and title to extensions without the tabs permission or host access, aligning with tabs.get. #53354 (Also in 42, 43, 45)

Fixed a renderer crash when an array with a throwing property getter is passed across contextBridge, and several main/utility-process crashes when option objects passed to Electron APIs contain throwing accessors or Proxy traps. #53331 (Also in 42, 43)

Fixed an intermittent crash at startup on Linux caused by a race between Pango and the main thread initializing fontconfig. #53340 (Also in 43, 45)

Fixed an issue where an exception thrown by a property getter on an object passed through contextBridge was swallowed instead of being thrown back to the caller. #53335 (Also in 43, 45)

Fixed main process crashes when navigating to http://accessibility/ or http://devtools/, when an extension background page used navigator.mediaDevices, and when calling SerialPort.forget() for a disconnected device. #53333 (Also in 43, 45)

Fixed the PDF viewer failing to save an edited PDF with NotAllowedError: Third party iframes are not allowed to show a file picker. #53328 (Also in 43, 45)

electron v44.1.0

Release Notes for v44.1.0

Fixes

Fixed fs.constants.O_DIRECTORY, O_NOFOLLOW and O_DIRECT holding x86 values on Linux arm64 and armv7l, which made opening a directory fail with EINVAL, and made require('trace_events') behave the same on cross-compiled builds as on native ones. #53320 (Also in 42, 43, 45)

Fixed webContents.executeJavaScriptInIsolatedWorld resolving with undefined when worldId was not an integer. #53238 (Also in 43)

Fixed webContents.print() honoring printBackground, duplexMode, and printer default duplex settings. #53159 (Also in 42, 43)

Fixed a crash on Windows when V8 posted a delayed worker task during shutdown. #53201 (Also in 42, 43)

Fixed a crash on macOS when a WebAuthn Touch ID prompt was requested while no locale resources were loaded. #53194 (Also in 43)

Fixed a crash on macOS when a notification's icon could not be attached; the notification is now shown without the icon. #53146 (Also in 42, 43)

Fixed a crash when calling node:wasi functions in optimized code. #53268 (Also in 42, 43, 45)

Fixed a crash when calling utilityProcess.postMessage() after the utility process had exited. #53300 (Also in 43, 45)

Fixed a regression where a window created with a custom title can show an empty title after using back/forward navigation. #53218 (Also in 42, 43)

Fixed an issue where pages loaded in a detached WebContentsView wouldn't see the correct window size. #53153 (Also in 42, 43)

Fixed crashes in sharedTexture, service-worker ipcRenderer and utilityProcess.fork() caused by object lifetime bugs. #53279 (Also in 43, 45)

Fixed crashes in the main process when a webRequest.onBeforeRequest listener redirected a CORS preflight request, and when calling net.fetch() with a webRequest-permission extension loaded. #53303 (Also in 43, 45)

Fixed crashes when a webContents or parent window is destroyed while other APIs still reference it. #53287 (Also in 43, 45)

Fixed crashes when certain app event handlers call back into Electron synchronously. #53275 (Also in 43, 45)

Fixed region-qualified --lang values such as de-DE loading no locale resources on macOS, which left localized strings empty and could crash WebAuthn Touch ID prompts. #53188 (Also in 42, 43)

Fixed the GPU process being terminated in AppX/MSIX packaged apps on Windows when WebGPU fell back to SwiftShader. #53198 (Also in 42, 43)

Fixed the tray icon not appearing on GNOME (and disappearing entirely on Wayland) since 44.0.0-beta.6. #53214

Fixed windows native message boxes being dismissed by other applications using invalid button ID. #53154 (Also in 43)

Other Changes

Backported fixes from upstream Chromium and V8. #53189

Page resources, fetch() calls and file:// loads in renderers no longer wait for the main process to be idle when no webRequest listeners or protocol interceptors are registered. #53141 (Also in 42, 43)

Renderer network requests no longer waited on the main process when the session's webRequest listeners only observe requests (onCompleted, onErrorOccurred, onSendHeaders, onBeforeRedirect, onResponseStarted) or are filtered to other resource types. #53240

Updated Chromium to 152.0.7977.65. #53203

Updated Node.js to v24.19.0. #52636
