->3. What's New in this Release</A
-></H1
-><P
-> <SPAN
-CLASS="APPLICATION"
->Privoxy 3.0.17</SPAN
-> is a stable release.
- The changes since 3.0.16 stable are:</P
-><P
-> <P
-></P
-><UL
-><LI
-><P
-> Fixed last-chunk-detection for responses where the content was small
- enough to be read with the body, causing Privoxy to wait for the
- end of the content until the server closed the connection or the
- request timed out. Reported by "Karsten" in #3028326.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Responses with status code 204 weren't properly detected as body-less
- like RFC2616 mandates. Like the previous bug, this caused Privoxy to
- wait for the end of the content until the server closed the connection
- or the request timed out. Fixes #3022042 and #3025553, reported by a
- user with no visible name. Most likely also fixes a bunch of other
- AJAX-related problem reports that got closed in the past due to
- insufficient information and lack of feedback.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Fixed an ACL bug that made it impossible to build a blacklist.
- Usually the ACL directives are used in a whitelist, which worked
- as expected, but blacklisting is still useful for public proxies
- where one only needs to deny known abusers access.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Added LOG_LEVEL_RECEIVED to log the not-yet-parsed data read from the
- network. This should make debugging various parsing issues a lot easier.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The IPv6 code is enabled by default on Windows versions that support it.
- Patch submitted by oCameLo in #2942729.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> In mingw32 versions, the user.filter file is reachable through the
- GUI, just like default.filter is. Feature request 3040263.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Added the configure option --enable-large-file-support to set a few
- defines that are required by platforms like GNU/Linux to support files
- larger then 2GB. Mainly interesting for users without proper logfile
- management.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Logging with "debug 16" no longer stops at the first nul byte which is
- pretty useless. Non-printable characters are replaced with their hex value
- so the result can't span multiple lines making parsing them harder then
- necessary.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Privoxy logs when reading an action, filter or trust file.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Fixed incorrect regression test markup which caused a test in
- 3.0.16 to fail while Privoxy itself was working correctly.
- While Privoxy accepts hide-referer, too, the action name is actually
- hide-referrer which is also the name used one the final results page,
- where the test expected the alias.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> CGI interface improvements:
- <P
-></P
-><UL
-><LI
-><P
-> In finish_http_response(), continue to add the 'Connection: close'
- header if the client connection will not be kept alive.
- Anonymously pointed out in #2987454.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Apostrophes in block messages no longer cause parse errors
- when the blocked page is viewed with JavaScript enabled.
- Reported by dg1727 in #3062296.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Fix a bunch of anchors that used underscores instead of dashes.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Allow to keep the client connection alive after crunching the previous request.
- Already opened server connections can be kept alive, too.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> In cgi_show_url_info(), don't forget to prefix URLs that only contain
- http:// or https:// in the path. Fixes #2975765 reported by Adam Piggott.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Show the 404 CGI page if cgi_send_user_manual() is called while
- local user manual delivery is disabled.
- </P
-></LI
-></UL
->
- </P
-></LI
-><LI

-><LI
-><P
-> Tag CSS and image requests with cautious and medium settings, too.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Don't handle view.atdmt.com as image. It's used for click-throughs
- so users should be able to "go there anyway".
- Reported by Adam Piggott in #2975927.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Also let the refresh-tags filter remove invalid refresh tags where
- the 'url=' part is missing. Anonymously reported in #2986382.
- While at it, update the description to mention the fact that only
- refresh tags with refresh times above 9 seconds are covered.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> javascript needs to be blocked with +handle-as-empty-document to
- work around Firefox bug 492459. So move .js blockers from
- +block{Might be a web-bug.} -handle-as-empty-document to
- +block{Might be a web-bug.} +handle-as-empty-document.

- default pre-settings. If you change the configuration to block
- cookies by default, you'll need additional exceptions.

+ of memory. Commits bbd53f1010b and 4490d451f9b. OVE-20201118-0001. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed a memory leak in the show-status CGI handler when no action files are configured. Commit
+ c62254a686. OVE-20201118-0002. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>

+ Robert Klemme</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed a memory leak if multiple filters are executed and the last one is skipped due to a pcre error.
+ Commit 5cfb7bc8fe. OVE-20201118-0005.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Prevent an unlikely dereference of a NULL-pointer that could result in a crash if
+ accept-intercepted-requests was enabled, Privoxy failed to get the request destination from the Host header
+ and a memory allocation failed. Commit 7530132349. CID 267165. OVE-20201118-0006.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed memory leaks in the client-tags CGI handler when client tags are configured and memory allocations

+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>General improvements:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Added experimental https inspection support which allows to filter https traffic. To enable it, install
+ MbedTLS and configure with --with-mbedtls, or install OpenSSL or LibreSSL and configure with
+ --with-openssl. Afterwards configure the directives in section 7 of the config file and enable the
+ +https-inspection action. Initial MbedTLS-based code contributed by Vaclav Svec, initial OpenSSL support
+ contributed by Maxim Antonov. With help from Nedzad Hrnjica and Ho+ Ho+ Ho+. Integration and improvements
+ sponsored by Robert Klemme.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>pcrs: Request JIT compilation if it's supported and the filter isn't dynamic. This can speed up
+ filtering.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Added support for Brotli decompression. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Added FEATURE_EXTENDED_STATISTICS to gather statistics for block reasons and filter executions. To

+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Use the IP_FREEBIND socket option, if defined. This allows Privoxy to bind to not-yet assigned IP
+ addresses which is useful in failover environments. Patch by Sam Varshavchik.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Allow to use extended host patterns and vanilla host patterns at the same time by prefixing extended
+ host patterns with "PCRE-HOST-PATTERN:". To enable this, configure with --enable-pcre-host-patterns.

+ <p>Added "Cross-origin resource sharing" (CORS) support. This allows to access Privoxy's CGI interface via

+ by Nedzad Hrnjica. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme.</p>

+ <li>
+ <p>Let LOG_LEVEL_REQUEST log all requests. Previously unencrypted requests were only logged with
+ LOG_LEVEL_REQUEST when they weren't crunched (in which case they were logged with LOG_LEVEL_CRUNCH). This
+ was documented behaviour, but logging all requests seems more useful.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Fixed locking around localtime() and gmtime().</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Removed OS/2 support. We haven't provided OS/2 packages in years, it complicated the code and it

+ <p>Changed license for pcrs to GPLv2+ after getting the permission from Andreas. This allows to

+ <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>
