ChangeLog for Privoxy
--------------------------------------------------------------------
-*** Since 3.0.3 ***
+*** Since 3.0.6 ***
+
+- New trust entries are saved with a comment that contains the
+ trusted referring URL (Suggested by Daniel Griscom).
+- Filter descriptions are HTML encoded automatically.
+- New config option "split-large-forms" to work
+ around a browser bug that caused IE6 and IE7 to ignore
+ the Submit button on the edit-actions-for-url CGI page.
+- Requests for Privoxy's CGI pages can be blocked, redirected
+ or (un)trusted like ordinary requests.
+- Empty filter files no longer interrupt the filtering process
+ prematurely and are correctly listed on the show-status CGI page.
+- New config option "accept-intercepted-requests" to combine
+ Privoxy with any packet filter to build an intercepting proxy
+ for HTTP/1.1 requests (and for HTTP/1.0 requests with Host header set).
+- fast-redirects{} catch redirects to https URLs as well.
+- redirect{s@foo@bar@} can be used to redirect to a rewritten
+ version of the original URL.
+- Trap unsupported gopher proxy requests.
+- Fixed a bug in the User Manual delivery on Windows
+ (mingw32 only). Images now show up correctly and HTML
+ pages are no longer padded with garbage data.
+- Fixed small memory leak in case of config file reloads.
+- Only unlink the pidfile if it's actually used.
+- Retries after connection problems with forced requests
+ aren't blocked again.
+- On Unix SIGABRT causes a coredump as expected and is no
+ longer treated as normal shutdown signal.
+- The "access denied" CGI page is more descriptive and
+ allows to circumvent the referrer check.
+- Updated PCRS to handle unexpected PCRE errors properly.
+ Fixed crashes that could occur if Privoxy was build
+ with external PCRE versions newer than Privoxy's internal
+ one. (Reported by Chung-chieh Shan)
+- Fixed crashes with null bytes in PCRS replacement strings
+ (Patch provided by Felix Gröbert).
+- Fixed crashes with header time randomization on mingw32.
+- Added zlib support to filter content with gzip and deflate
+ encoding. (Patch provided by Wil Mahan)
+- The CGI style sheet is no longer delivered if the referring
+ page isn't a Privoxy CGI page. This prevents a JavaScript-based
+ Privoxy detection "attack".
+- Added support for AmigaOS 4, fixed build for AmigaOS 3.x.
+- The show-url-info CGI page displays a warning if Privoxy
+ is currently toggled off.
+- The show-status CGI page suppresses the edit button
+ for action files if Privoxy has no write access.
+- Minor code clean-ups, filter and action file updates.
+ (Some of them reported by Davide Alberani, Markus Elfring
+ and Adam Piggott)
+
+*** Version 3.0.6 ***
+
+- New content filters: no-ping, google, msn, yahoo and blogspot.
+- New header filters: x-httpd-php-to-html, html-to-xml, xml-to-html
+ and hide-tor-exit-notation.
+- The special header "X-Filter: No" now disables header filtering as well.
+- Improved the filters img-reorder, js-annoyances, webbugs,
+ banners-by-size, banners-by-link and ie-exploits to make them
+ less likely to break anything.
+- Removed outdated URL patterns in default.action and added new ones.
+- Added redirection from http://p.p/user-manual to http://p.p/user-manual/
+- Changed webinterface default values for hide-user-agent, hide-referrer
+ and set-image-blocker.
+
+*** Version 3.0.5 ***
+
+- Windows version can be installed/started as a service.
+- Windows icon stays blue when Privoxy is idle, green when busy.
+- Integrated Fabian Keil's extensive patch. See:
+ http://www.fabiankeil.de/sourcecode/privoxy/. Includes the
+ following new or significantly improved actions (among many
+ other improvements):
+
+ content-type-overwrite{}
+ crunch-client-header{string}
+ crunch-if-none-match
+ crunch-server-header{string}
+ fast-redirects{check-decoded-url}
+ filter-client-headers
+ filter-server-headers
+ force-text-mode
+ handle-as-empty-document

+ hide-content-disposition{}
+ hide-if-modified-since
+ hide-referrer{conditional-block}
+ overwrite-last-modified{}
+ redirect{URL}
+ treat-forbidden-connects-like-blocks
+
+- Standard-compliant clients are prevented from displaying cached
+ copies of Privoxy's error messages after the cause of the problem
+ has gone.
+- Improved DNS error handling.
- Multiple filter files can now be specified in config.
- Added jpeg filtering to defend against MS jpeg vulnerability MS04-028
+ with the new inspect-jpegs action.
- Removed the "arbitrary" 1000 filter limit - addresses tracker #911950
- Thanks to Jindrich Makovicka for a race condition fix for the log
file. The race condition remains for non-pthread implementations.
- Reference patch #1175720.
+ Reference patch #1175720. Various other logging enhancements.
+- A pile of assorted bug fixes, memory leaks, enhancements, etc.

+ forwarded-connect-retries.
