[sleuthkit-announce] New The Sleuth Kit Release!

[Brian C. <ca...@sl...>]

The 4.2.0 release is finally out.  It’s been well over 1.5 years since there was an independent TSK release. There is a lot more in there than what we have listed in the NEWS.txt file because we didn’t keep it up to date with all of the little fixes and changes. But here are the big items:

- ExFAT support added
- New database schema
- New Sqlite hash database
- Added secondary hash database index 
- Various bug fixes
- NTFS pays more attention to sequence and loads metadata only 
  if it matches. 

Source code tar ball and windows binaries are here:
