# Version 1.42

## ✨ Enhancements

### Password Reset Protection for GitHub

Material now extends its password reset protection to GitHub accounts. This helps security teams detect and respond to account-takeover attempts targeting developer infrastructure—one of the most valuable footholds for attackers. Early visibility into suspicious GitHub password resets reduces the risk of compromised repos, poisoned code, or unauthorized access to build systems.

### Google Profile Photos in Account Views

Google Workspace profile photos now appear in [account](/getting-started/fundamentals/explore.md) details. While not an investigation-critical feature, it provides a more human, recognizable touch during triage and admin tasks—making the product feel friendlier and helping teams move through routine workflows with less cognitive overhead.

### Improved Similarity Matching for User Reports

Material’s similarity matching algorithm no longer uses `google.com` as a grouping signal when clustering [user-reported](/learn-more/risk-areas/email-threats/detect/user-reporting-methods.md) suspicious emails. This reduces over-grouping and noisy clusters, helping analysts stay focused on true patterns instead of manually unbundling unrelated reports.

More exciting changes coming soon, stay tuned!

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.material.security/whats-new/previous-releases/1.15-to-1.43/version-1.42.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
