+ Release</a></h1>
+
+ <p><span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy 3.0.20</span> is a beta release. The
+ changes since 3.0.19 stable are:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bug fixes:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Client sockets are now properly shutdown and drained before
+ being closed. This fixes page truncation issues with clients that
+ aggressively pipeline data on platforms that otherwise discard
+ already written data. The issue mainly affected Opera users and
+ was initially reported by Kevin in #3464439, szotsaki provided
+ additional information to track down the cause.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix latency calculation for shared connections (disabled by
+ default). It was broken since their introduction in 2009. The
+ calculated latency for most connections would be 0 in which case
+ the timeout detection failed to account for the real latency.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Reject URLs with invalid port. Previously they were parsed
+ incorrectly and characters between the port number and the first
+ slash were silently dropped as shown by curl test 187.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>The default-server-timeout and socket-timeout directives
+ accept 0 as valid value.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix a race condition on Windows that could cause Privoxy to
+ become unresponsive after toggling it on or off through the
+ taskbar icon. Reported by Tim H. in #3525694.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix the compilation on Windows when configured without IPv6
+ support.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() in
+ case of socks5 connection failures with "debug 2" enabled.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() if a
+ filter contained nul bytes in the replacement text.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>General improvements:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Significantly improved keep-alive support for both client and
+ server connections.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>New debug log level 65536 which logs all actions that were
+ applied to the request.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>New directive client-header-order to forward client headers in
+ a different order than the one in which they arrived.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>New directive tolerate-pipelining to allow client-side
+ pipelining. If enabled (3.0.20 beta enables it by default),
+ Privoxy will keep pipelined client requests around to deal with
+ them once the current request has been served.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>New --config-test option to let Privoxy exit after checking
+ whether or not the configuration seems valid. The limitations
+ noted in TODO #22 and #23 still apply. Based on a patch by
+ Ramkumar Chinchani.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>New limit-cookie-lifetime{} action to let cookies expire
+ before the end of the session. Suggested by Rick Sykes in
+ #1049575.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Increase the hard-coded maximum number of actions and filter
+ files from 10 to 30 (each). It doesn't significantly affect
+ Privoxy's memory usage and recompiling wasn't an option for all
+ Privoxy users that reached the limit.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add support for chunk-encoded client request bodies.
+ Previously chunk-encoded request bodies weren't guaranteed to be
+ forwarded correctly, so this can also be considered a bug fix
+ although chunk-encoded request bodies aren't commonly used in the
+ real world.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add support for Tor's optimistic-data SOCKS extension, which
+ can reduce the latency for requests on newly created connections.
+ Currently only the headers are sent optimistically and only if
+ the client request has already been read completely which rules
+ out requests with large bodies.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>After preventing the client from pipelining, don't signal
+ keep-alive intentions. When looking at the response headers
+ alone, it previously wasn't obvious from the client's perspective
+ that no additional responses should be expected.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Stop considering client sockets tainted after receiving a
+ request with body. It hasn't been necessary for a while now and
+ unnecessarily causes test failures when using curl's test
+ suite.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Allow HTTP/1.0 clients to signal interest in keep-alive
+ through the Proxy-Connection header. While such client are rare
+ in the real world, it doesn't hurt and couple of curl tests rely
+ on it.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Only remove duplicated Content-Type headers when filters are
+ enabled. If they are not it doesn't cause ill effects and the
+ user might not want it. Downgrade the removal message to
+ LOG_LEVEL_HEADER to clarify that it's not an error in Privoxy and
+ is unlikely to cause any problems in general. Anonymously
+ reported in #3599335.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Set the socket option SO_LINGER for the client socket.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Move several variable declarations to the beginning of their
+ code block. It's required when compiling with gcc 2.95 which is
+ still used on some platforms. Initial patch submitted by Simon
+ South in #3564815.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Optionally try to sanity-check strptime() results before
+ trusting them. Broken strptime() implementations have caused
+ problems in the past and the most recent offender seems to be
+ FreeBSD's libc (standards/173421).</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>When filtering is enabled, let Range headers pass if the range
+ starts at the beginning. This should work around (or at least
+ reduce) the video playback issues with various Apple clients as
+ reported by Duc in #3426305.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Do not confuse a client hanging up with a connection time out.
+ If a client closes its side of the connection without sending a
+ request line, do not send the CLIENT_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT_RESPONSE,
+ but report the condition properly.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Allow closing curly braces as part of action values as long as
+ they are escaped.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>On Windows, the logfile is now written before showing the GUI
+ error message which blocks until the user acknowledges it.
+ Reported by Adriaan in #3593603.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove an unreasonable parameter limit in the CGI interface.
+ The new parameter limit depends on the memory available and is
+ currently unlikely to be reachable, due to other limits in both
+ Privoxy and common clients. Reported by Andrew on
+ ijbswa-users@.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Decrease the chances of parse failures after requests with
+ unsupported methods were sent to the CGI interface.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Action file improvements:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove the comment that indicated that updated default.action
+ versions are released on their own.</p>

+ are SIGINT, SIGTERM and SIGHUP.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add Haiku to the list of operating systems on which Privoxy is
+ known to run.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add DragonFly to the list of BSDs on which Privoxy is known to
+ run.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Removed references to redhat-specific documentation set since
+ it no longer exists.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Removed references to building PDFs since we no longer do
+ so.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Multiple listen-address directives are supported since 3.0.18,
+ correct the documentation to say so.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove bogus section about long and short being preferable to
+ int.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Corrected some Internet JunkBuster references to Privoxy.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Removed references to www.junkbusters.com since it is no
+ longer maintained. Reported by Angelina Matson.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Various grammar and spelling corrections</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add a client-header-tagger{} example for disabling filtering

+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Correct a URL in the "Privoxy with Tor" FAQ.</p>

+ </li>
+
+ <li>

+
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove an incorrect sentence in the toggle section. The toggle
+ state doesn't affect whether or not the Windows version uses the
+ tray icon. Reported by Zeno Kugy in #3596395.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add new contributors since 3.0.19.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Log message improvements:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>When stopping to watch a client socket due to pipelining,
+ additionally log the socket number.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Log the client socket and its condition before closing it.
+ This makes it more obvious that the socket actually gets closed
+ and should help when diagnosing problems like #3464439.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>In case of SOCKS5 failures, do not explicitly log the server's
+ response. It hasn't helped so far and the response can already be
+ logged by enabling "debug 32768" anyway. This reverts v1.81 and
+ the follow-up bug fix v1.84.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Relocate the connection-accepted message from listen_loop() to
+ serve(). This way it's printed by the thread that is actually
+ serving the connection which is nice when grepping for thread ids
+ in log files.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Code cleanups:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove compatibility layer for versions prior to 3.0 since it
+ has been obsolete for more than 10 years now.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove the ijb_isupper() and ijb_tolower() macros from
+ parsers.c since they aren't used in this file.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Removed the 'Functions declared include:' comment sections
+ since they tend to be incomplete, incorrect and out of date and
+ the benefit seems questionable.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Various comment grammar and comprehensibility
+ improvements.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove a pointless fflush() call in chat(). Flushing all
+ streams pretty much all the time for no obvious reason is
+ ridiculous.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Relocate ijb_isupper()'s definition to project.h and get the
+ ijb_tolower() definition from there, too.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Relocate ijb_isdigit()'s definition to project.h.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Rename ijb_foo macros to privoxy_foo.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add malloc_or_die() which will allow to simplify code paths
+ where malloc() failures don't need to be handled gracefully.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add strdup_or_die() which will allow to simplify code paths
+ where strdup() failures don't need to be handled gracefully.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Replace strdup() calls with strdup_or_die() calls where it's
+ safe and simplifies the code.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix white-space around parentheses.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add missing white-space behind if's and the following
+ parentheses.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Unwrap a memcpy() call in resolve_hostname_to_ip().</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Declare pcrs_get_delimiter()'s delimiters[] static const.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Various optimisations to remove dead code and merge
+ inefficient code structures for improved clarity, performance or
+ code compactness.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Various data type corrections.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Change visibility of several code segments when compiling
+ without FEATURE_CONNECTION_KEEP_ALIVE enabled for clarity.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>In pcrs_get_delimiter(), do not use delimiters outside the
+ ASCII range. Fixes a clang complaint.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix an error message in get_last_url() nobody is supposed to
+ see. Reported by Matthew Fischer in #3507301.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix a typo in the no-zlib-support complaint. Patch submitted
+ by Matthew Fischer in #3507304.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Shorten ssplit()'s prototype by removing the last two
+ arguments. We always want to skip empty fields and ignore leading
+ delimiters, so having parameters for this only complicates the
+ API.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Use an enum for the type of the action value.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Rename action_name's member takes_value to value_type as it
+ isn't used as boolean.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Turn family mismatches in match_sockaddr() into fatal
+ errors.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Let enlist_unique_header() verify that the caller didn't pass
+ a header containing either \r or \n.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Change the hashes used in load_config() to unsigned int.
+ That's what hash_string() actually returns and using a
+ potentially larger type is at best useless.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Use privoxy_tolower() instead of vanilla tolower() with manual
+ casting of the argument.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Catch ssplit() failures in parse_cgi_parameters().</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Privoxy-Regression-Test:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add an 'Overwrite condition' directive to skip any matching
+ tests before it. As it has a global scope, using it is more
+ convenient than clowning around with the Ignore directive.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Log to STDOUT instead of STDERR.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Include the Privoxy version in the output.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Various grammar and spelling corrections in documentation and
+ code.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Additional tests for range requests with filtering
+ enabled.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Tests with mostly invalid range request.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Add a couple of hide-if-modified-since{} tests with different
+ date formats.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Cleaned up the format of the regression-tests.action file to
+ match the format of default.action.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove the "Copyright" line from print_version(). When using
+ --help, every line of screen space matters and thus shouldn't be
+ wasted on things the user doesn't care about.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Privoxy-Log-Parser:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Improve the --statistics performance by skipping sanity checks
+ for input that shouldn't affect the results anyway. Add a
+ --strict-checks option that enables some of the checks again,
+ just in case anybody cares.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>The distribution of client requests per connection is included
+ in the --statistic output.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>The --accept-unknown-messages option has been removed and the
+ behavior is now the default.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Accept and (mostly) highlight new log messages introduced with
+ Privoxy 3.0.20.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>uagen:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bump generated Firefox version to 17.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>GNUmakefile improvements:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>The dok-tidy target no longer taints documents with a
+ tidy-mark</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Change RA_MODE from 0664 to 0644. Suggested by Markus Dittrich
+ in #3505445.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove tidy's clean flag as it changes the scope of
+ attributes. Link-specific colors end up being applied to all
+ text. Reported by Adam Piggott in #3569551.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Leave it up to the user whether or not smart tags are
+ inserted.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Let w3m itself do the line wrapping for the config file. It
+ works better than fmt as it can honour pre tags causing less
+ unintentional line breaks.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Ditch a pointless '-r' passed to rm to delete files.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>The config-file target now requires less manual intervention
+ and updates the original config.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Change WDUMP to generate ASCII. Add WDUMP_UTF8 to allow UTF-8
+ in the AUTHORS file so the names are right.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Stop pretending that lynx and links are supported for the
+ documentation.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>configure improvements:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>On Haiku, do not pass -lpthread to the compiler. Haiku's
+ pthreads implementation is contained in its system library,
+ libroot, so no additional library needs to be searched. Patch
+ submitted by Simon South in #3564815.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Additional Haiku-specific improvements. Disable checks
+ intended for multi-user systems as Haiku is presently
+ single-user. Group Haiku-specific settings in their own section,
+ following the pattern for Solaris, OS/2 and AmigaOS. Add
+ additional library-related settings to remove the need for
+ providing configure with custom LDFLAGS. Submitted by Simon South
+ in #3574538.</p>

+ to Upgraders</a></h2>
+
+ <p>A quick list of things to be aware of before upgrading from earlier
+ versions of <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span>:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>The recommended way to upgrade <span class=
+ "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> is to backup your old configuration
+ files, install the new ones, verify that <span class=
+ "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> is working correctly and finally merge
+ back your changes using <span class="APPLICATION">diff</span> and
+ maybe <span class="APPLICATION">patch</span>.</p>
+
+ <p>There are a number of new features in each <span class=
+ "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> release and most of them have to be
+ explicitly enabled in the configuration files. Old configuration
+ files obviously don't do that and due to syntax changes using old
+ configuration files with a new <span class=
+ "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> isn't always possible anyway.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Note that some installers remove earlier versions completely,
+ including configuration files, therefore you should really save any
+ important configuration files!</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>On the other hand, other installers don't overwrite existing
+ configuration files, thinking you will want to do that
+ yourself.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>In the default configuration only fatal errors are logged now.
+ You can change that in the <a href="config.html#DEBUG">debug
+ section</a> of the configuration file. You may also want to enable
+ more verbose logging until you verified that the new <span class=
+ "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> version is working as expected.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>Three other config file settings are now off by default:
+ <a href="config.html#ENABLE-REMOTE-TOGGLE">enable-remote-toggle</a>,
+ <a href=
+ "config.html#ENABLE-REMOTE-HTTP-TOGGLE">enable-remote-http-toggle</a>,
+ and <a href=
+ "config.html#ENABLE-EDIT-ACTIONS">enable-edit-actions</a>. If you
+ use or want these, you will need to explicitly enable them, and be
+ aware of the security issues involved.</p>
