+*** Version 3.0.33 stable ***
+
+- Bug fixes:
+ - handle_established_connection(): Skip the poll()/select() calls
+ if TLS data is pending on the server socket. The TLS library may
+ have already consumed all the data from the server response in
+ which case poll() and select() will not detect that data is
+ available to be read.
+ Fixes SF bug #926 reported by Wen Yue.
+ - continue_https_chat(): Update csp->server_connection.request_sent
+ after sending the request to make sure the latency is calculated
+ correctly. Previously https connections were not reused after
+ timeout seconds after the first request made on the connection.
+ - free_pattern_spec(): Don't try to free an invalid pointer
+ when unloading an action file with a TAG pattern while
+ Privoxy has been compiled without FEATURE_PCRE_HOST_PATTERNS.
+ Closes: SF patch request #147. Patch by Maxim Antonov.
+ - Establish the TLS connection with the client earlier and decide
+ how to route the request afterwards. This allows to change the
+ forwarding settings based on information from the https-inspected
+ request, for example the path.
+ - Adjust build_request_line() to create a CONNECT request line when
+ https-inspecting and forwarding to a HTTP proxy.
+ Fixes SF bug #925 reported by Wen Yue.
+ - load_config(): Add a space that was missing in a log message.
+
+- General improvements:
+ - serve(): Close the client socket as well if the server socket
+ for an inspected connection has been closed. Privoxy currently
+ can't establish a new server connection when the client socket
+ is reused and would drop the connection in continue_https_chat()
+ anyway.
+ - Don't disable redirect checkers in redirect_url()
+ Disable them in handle_established_connection() instead.
+ Doing it in redirect_url() prevented the +redirect{} and
+ +fast-redirects{} actions from being logged with LOG_LEVEL_ACTIONS.
+ - handle_established_connection(): Slightly improve a comment
+ - handle_established_connection(): Fix a comment
+ - socks5_connect(): Fix indentation.
+ - handle_established_connection(): Improve an error message
+ - create_pattern_spec(): Fix ifdef indentation
+ - Fix comment typos
+ - Add a CGI handler for /wpad.dat that returns a
+ Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) file.
+ Among other things, it can be used to instruct clients
+ through DHCP to use Privoxy as proxy.
+ For example with the dnsmasq option:
+ dhcp-option=252,http://config.privoxy.org/wpad.dat
+ Initial patch by Richard Schneidt.
+ - listen_loop(): When shutting down gracefully, close listening ports
+ before waiting for the threads to exit.
+ Allows to start a second Privoxy with the same config file
+ while the first Privoxy is still running.
+ - Allow to edit the add-header action through the CGI editor by
+ generalizing the code that got added with the suppress-tag action.
+ Closes SF patch request #146. Patch by Maxim Antonov.
+ - process_encrypted_request(): Improve a log message
+ The function only processes request headers and there
+ may still be unread request body data left to process.
+ - read_http_request_body(): Fix two error messages that used an incorrect variable.
+ - chat(): Log the applied actions before deciding how to forward the request.
+ - parse_time_header(): Silence a coverity complaint when building without assertions.
+ - receive_encrypted_request_headers(): Improve a log message
+ - mbedTLS get_ciphersuites_from_string(): Use strlcpy() instead of strncpy().
+ Previously the terminating NUL wasn't copied which resulted
+ in a compiler warning. This didn't cause actual problems as
+ the target buffer was initialized by zalloc_or_die() so the
+ last byte of the target buffer was NUL already.
+ Actually copying the terminating NUL seems clearer, though.
+ - Remove compiler warnings. "log_error(LOG_LEVEL_FATAL, ..." doesn't return
+ but apparently the compiler doesn't know that.
+ Get rid of several "this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]" warnings.
+ - If the the response is chunk-encoded, ignore the Content-Length
+ header sent by the server.
+ Allows to load https://redmine.lighttpd.net/ with filtering enabled.
+ - Store the PEM certificate in a dynamically allocated buffer
+ when https-inspecting. Should prevent errors like:
+ 2021-03-16 22:36:19.148 7f47bbfff700 Error: X509 PEM cert len 16694 is larger than buffer len 16383
+ As a bonus it should slightly reduce the memory usage as most
+ certificates are smaller than the previously used fixed buffer.
+ Reported by: Wen Yue
+ - Don't log the applied actions in process_encrypted_request()
+ Log them in continue_https_chat() instead to mirror chat().
+ Prevents the applied actions from getting logged twice
+ for the first request on an https-inspected connection.
+ - OpenSSL generate_host_certificate(): Use config.privoxy.org as Common Name
+ Org and Org Unit if the real host name is too long to get accepted by OpenSSL.
+ Clients should only care about the Subject Alternative Name
+ anyway and we can continue to use the real host name for it.
+ Reported by Miles Wen on privoxy-users@.
+ - OpenSSL generate_host_certificate(): Fix two error messsages.
+ - Improve description of handle_established_connection()
+ - OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Translate EVP_PKEY_EC to a string.
+ - OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Remove pointless variable initialization.
+ - OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Initialize pointer with NULL instead of 0.

+ - Add configure option to enable AddressSanitizer.
+ - Bump copyright
+ - Add a configure option to disable pcre JIT compilation.
+ While JIT compilation makes filtering faster it can
+ cause false-positive valgrind complaints.
+ As reported by Gwyn Ciesla in SF bug 924 it also can
+ cause problems when the SELinux policy does not grant
+ Privoxy "execmem" privileges.
+ - configure: Remove obsolete RPM_BASE check
+
+- Windows build system:
+ - Update the build script to use mbed tls version 2.6.11.

+ when doing a release.
+ - config: Explicitly mention that the CGI pages disclosing the
+ ca-password can be blocked and upgrade the disclosure paragraphs
+ to a warning.
+ - Put all the requested debug options in the config file.
+ Section 11.1 of the Privoxy user manual lists all the debug
+ options that should be enabled when reporting problems or requesting support.
+ Make it easier for users to do the right thing by having all those
+ options present in the config.
+ - Update TODO list item #184 to note that WolfSSL support will
+ (hopefully) appear after the 3.0.34 release
+ - Update max-client-connections's description.
+ On modern systems other than Windows Privoxy should
+ use poll() in which case the FD_SETSIZE value isn't
+ releveant.
+ - Add a warning that the socket-timeout does not apply
+ to operations done by TLS libraries
+ - Make documentation slightly less "offensive" for some people
+ by avoiding the word "hell".
+
+*** Version 3.0.32 stable ***
+
+- Security/Reliability:
+ - ssplit(): Remove an assertion that could be triggered with a
+ crafted CGI request.

+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)
+ - cgi_send_banner(): Overrule invalid image types. Prevents a
+ crash with a crafted CGI request if Privoxy is toggled off.
+ Commit e711c505c48. OVE-20210206-0001. CVE-2021-20273.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)
+ - socks5_connect(): Don't try to send credentials when none are
+ configured. Fixes a crash due to a NULL-pointer dereference
+ when the socks server misbehaves.

+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)
+ - chunked_body_is_complete(): Prevent an invalid read of size two.
+ Commit a912ba7bc9c. OVE-20210205-0001. CVE-2021-20275.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)
+ - Obsolete pcre: Prevent invalid memory accesses with an invalid
+ pattern passed to pcre_compile(). Note that the obsolete pcre code
+ is scheduled to be removed before the 3.0.33 release. There has been
+ a warning since 2008 already.
+ Commit 28512e5b624. OVE-20210222-0001. CVE-2021-20276.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)
+
+- Bug fixes:
+ - Properly parse the client-tag-lifetime directive. Previously it was
+ not accepted as an obsolete hash value was being used.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)
+ - decompress_iob(): Prevent reading of uninitialized data.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera).
+ - decompress_iob(): Don't advance cur past eod when looking
+ for the end of the file name and comment.
+ - decompress_iob(): Cast value to unsigned char before shifting.
+ Prevents a left-shift of a negative value which is undefined behaviour.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)
+ - gif_deanimate(): Confirm that that we have enough data before doing
+ any work. Fixes a crash when fuzzing with an empty document.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera).
+ - buf_copy(): Fail if there's no data to write or nothing to do.
+ Prevents undefined behaviour "applying zero offset to null pointer".
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)
+ - log_error(): Treat LOG_LEVEL_FATAL as fatal even when --stfu is
+ being used while fuzzing.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera).
+ - Respect DESTDIR when considering whether or not to install
+ config files with ".new" extension.
+ - OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Fix two error messages.
+ - Fix a couple of format specifiers.
+ - Silence compiler warnings when compiling with NDEBUG.
+ - fuzz_server_header(): Fix compiler warning.
+ - fuzz_client_header(): Fix compiler warning.
+ - cgi_send_user_manual(): Also reject requests if the user-manual
+ directive specifies a https:// URL. Previously Privoxy would try and
+ fail to open a local file.
+
+- General improvements:
+ - Log the TLS version and the the cipher when debug 2 is enabled.
+ - ssl_send_certificate_error(): Respect HEAD requests by not sending a body.
+ - ssl_send_certificate_error(): End the body with a single new line.
+ - serve(): Increase the chances that the host is logged when closing
+ a server socket.
+ - handle_established_connection(): Add parentheses to clarify an expression
+ Suggested by: David Binderman
+ - continue_https_chat(): Explicitly unset CSP_FLAG_CLIENT_CONNECTION_KEEP_ALIVE
+ if process_encrypted_request() fails. This makes it more obvious that the
+ connection will not be reused. Previously serve() relied on
+ CSP_FLAG_SERVER_CONTENT_LENGTH_SET and CSP_FLAG_CHUNKED being unset.
+ Inspired by a patch from Joshua Rogers (Opera).
+ - decompress_iob(): Add periods to a couple of log messages
+ - Terminate the body of the HTTP snipplets with a single new line
+ instead of "\r\n".
+ - configure: Add --with-assertions option and only enable assertions
+ when it is used
+ - windows build: Use --with-brotli and --with-mbedtls by default and
+ enable dynamic error checking.
+ - gif_deanimate(): Confirm we've got an image before trying to write it
+ Saves a pointless buf_copy() call.
+ - OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Remove a superfluous space before the serial number.
+
