-NAME="WHATSNEW"
->3. What's New in this Release</A
-></H1
-><P
-> There are many improvements and new features since <SPAN
-CLASS="APPLICATION"
->Privoxy 3.0.8</SPAN
->, the last stable release:</P
-><P
-> <P
-></P
-><UL
-><LI
-><P
-> Added SOCKS5 support (with address resolution done by
- the SOCKS5 server). Patch provided by Eric M. Hopper.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The "blocked" CGI pages include a block reason that was
- provided as argument to the last-applying block action.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> If enable-edit-actions is disabled (the default since 3.0.7 beta)
- the show-status page hides the edit buttons and explains why.
- Previously the user would get the "this feature has been disabled"
- message after using the edit button.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Forbidden CONNECT requests are treated like blocks by default.
- The now-pointless treat-forbidden-connects-like-blocks action
- has been removed.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Not enabling limit-connect now allows CONNECT requests to all ports.
- In previous versions it would only allow CONNECT requests to port 443.
- Use +limit-connect{443} if you think you need the old default behaviour.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The CGI editor gets turned off after three edit requests with invalid
- file modification timestamps. This makes life harder for attackers
- who can leverage browser bugs to send fake Referers and intend to
- brute-force edit URLs.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Action settings for multiple patterns in the same section are
- shared in memory. As a result these sections take up less space
- (and are loaded slightly faster). Problem reported by Franz Schwartau.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Linear white space in HTTP headers will be normalized to single
- spaces before parsing the header's content, headers split across
- multiple lines get merged first.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Host information is gathered outside the main thread so it's less
- likely to delay other incoming connections if the host is misconfigured.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> New config option "hostname" to use a hostname other than
- the one returned by the operating system. Useful to speed-up responses
- for CGI requests on misconfigured systems. Requested by Max Khon.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The CGI editor supports the "disable all filters of this type"
- directives "-client-header-filter", "-server-header-filter",
- "-client-header-tagger" and "-server-header-tagger".
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Fixed false-positives with the link-by-url filter and URLs that
- contain the pattern "/jump/".
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The less-download-windows filter no longer messes
- "Content-Type: application/x-shockwave-flash" headers up.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> In the show-url-info page's "Final results" section active and
- inactive actions are listed separately. Patch provided by Lee.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The GNUmakefile supports the DESTDIR variable. Patch for
- the install target submitted by Radoslaw Zielinski.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Embedding the content of configuration files in the show-status
- page is significantly faster now. For a largish action file (1 MB)
- a speedup of about 2450 times has been measured. This is mostly
- interesting if you are using large action files or regularly use
- Privoxy-Regression-Test while running Privoxy through Valgrind,
- for stock configuration files it doesn't really matter.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> If zlib support is unavailable and there are content
- filters active but the prevent-compression action is disabled,
- the show-url-info page includes a warning that compression
- might prevent filtering.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The show-url-info page provides an OpenSearch Description that
- allows to access the page through browser search plugins.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The obsolete kill-popups action has been removed as the
- PCRS-based popup filters can do the same and are slightly
- less unreliable.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The inspect-jpegs action has been removed.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The send-wafer and send-vanilla-wafer actions have been removed.
- They weren't particular useful and their behaviour could be emulated
- with add-header anyway.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Privoxy-Regression-Test has been significantly improved.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Most sections in the default.action file contain tests for
- Privoxy-Regression-Test to verify that they are working as intended.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Parts of Privoxy have been refactored to increase maintainability.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Building with zlib (if available) is done by default.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Ordinary configuration file changes no longer cause program
- termination on OS/2 if the name of the logfile hasn't been
- changed as well. This regression probably crept in with the
- logging improvements in 3.0.7. Reported by Maynard.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The img-reorder filter is less likely to mess up JavaScript code in
- img tags. Problem and solution reported by Glenn Washburn in #2014552.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The source tar ball now includes Privoxy-Log-Parser,
- a syntax-highlighter for Privoxy logs. Documentation is available
- through perldoc(1), for fancy screenshots see:
- <A
-HREF="http://www.fabiankeil.de/sourcecode/privoxy-log-parser/"

->:</P
-><P

-></P

-><LI
-><P
-> The recommended way to upgrade <SPAN

-> There are a number of new features in each <SPAN
-CLASS="APPLICATION"

- 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

->Privoxy</SPAN

- </P

-><LI
-><P
->
- Note that some installers remove earlier versions completely,
- including configuration files, therefore you should really save
- any important configuration files!
- </P

- On the other hand, other installers don't overwrite existing configuration

-> In the default configuration only fatal errors are logged now.
- You can change that in the <A

- logging until you verified that the new <SPAN

+ <p><span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy 3.0.32</span> fixes multiple DoS issues and a couple of other bugs. The issues
+ also affect earlier Privoxy releases.</p>
+ <p>Changes in <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy 3.0.32</span> stable:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Security/Reliability:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>ssplit(): Remove an assertion that could be triggered with a crafted CGI request. Commit 2256d7b4d67.
+ OVE-20210203-0001. Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>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. Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>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. Commit 85817cc55b9. OVE-20210207-0001. Reported
+ by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>chunked_body_is_complete(): Prevent an invalid read of size two. Commit a912ba7bc9c. OVE-20210205-0001.
+ Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>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. Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera)</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bug fixes:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>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)</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>decompress_iob(): Prevent reading of uninitialized data. Reported by: Joshua Rogers (Opera).</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>decompress_iob(): Don't advance cur past eod when looking for the end of the file name and comment.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>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)</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>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).</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>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)</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>log_error(): Treat LOG_LEVEL_FATAL as fatal even when --stfu is being used while fuzzing. Reported by:
+ Joshua Rogers (Opera).</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Respect DESTDIR when considering whether or not to install config files with ".new" extension.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Fix two error messages.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix a couple of format specifiers.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Silence compiler warnings when compiling with NDEBUG.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>fuzz_server_header(): Fix compiler warning.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>fuzz_client_header(): Fix compiler warning.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>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.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>General improvements:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Log the TLS version and the the cipher when debug 2 is enabled.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>ssl_send_certificate_error(): Respect HEAD requests by not sending a body.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>ssl_send_certificate_error(): End the body with a single new line.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>serve(): Increase the chances that the host is logged when closing a server socket.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>handle_established_connection(): Add parentheses to clarify an expression Suggested by: David
+ Binderman</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>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).</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>decompress_iob(): Add periods to a couple of log messages</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Terminate the body of the HTTP snipplets with a single new line instead of "\r\n".</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>configure: Add --with-assertions option and only enable assertions when it is used</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>windows build: Use --with-brotli and --with-mbedtls by default and enable dynamic error checking.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>gif_deanimate(): Confirm we've got an image before trying to write it Saves a pointless buf_copy()
+ call.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Remove a superfluous space before the serial number.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Action file improvements:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Disable fast-redirects for .golem.de/</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Unblock requests to adri*.</p>
+ </li>

+ <p>Block requests for trc*.taboola.com/</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Disable fast-redirects for .linkedin.com/</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Filter file improvements:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Make the second pcrs job of the img-reorder filter greedy again. The ungreedy version broke the img tags
+ on: https://bulk.fefe.de/scalability/.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Privoxy-Log-Parser:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Highlight a few more messages.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Clarify the --statistics output. The shown "Reused connections" are server connections so name them
+ appropriately.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bump version to 0.9.3.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>

+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>

+ <p>Documentation:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add pushing the created tag to the release steps in the developer manual.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Clarify that 'debug 32768' should be used in addition to the other debug directives when reporting
+ problems.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add a 'Third-party licenses and copyrights' section to the user manual.</p>
