ChangeLog for Privoxy
--------------------------------------------------------------------
-*** Current CVS ***
-
+*** Since 3.0.3 ***
+- Multiple filter files can now be specified in config.
+- Added jpeg filtering to defend against MS jpeg vulnerability MS04-028
+- 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.
+
+*** Version 3.0.3 ***
+
+- Fixed yet another two memory leaks. Process growth seems stopped now.
+- Further tightened security against malicious toggle-off links.
+- Excluded text/plain MIME types from filtering. This fixes a
+ couple of client-crashing, download corruption and
+ Privoxy performance issues, whose root cause lies in
+ web servers labelling content of unknown type as text/plain.
+- Assorted fixes for POSIX compliance, signal handling, graceful
+ termination, compiler warnings, OSX support, Win32 systray,
+ error logging, hostname wildcards, correct detection of NetBSD.
+- Workarounds for client (iTunes etc) and server (PHP < 4.2.3) bugs
+ including the notorious "blank page" problem.
+- Various filter improvements; most notably the unsolicited-popups
+ filter became less destructive
+- Major revamp of the actions file
+
+*** Version 3.0.2 ***
+
+- Fixed two memory leaks, one serious
+- Fixed bug in pcrs which could cause crashes with user-defined filters
+- Fixed bug in domain name matching

+- Added basic support for the OPTIONS and TRACE http methods
+- Added workaround for Bug in Mac OSX that made Privoxy crash occasionally
+- Refined the default action file through >400 items of user feedback
+- Filter changes:
+ - Assorted refinements, optimizations and fixes in the js-annoyances,
+ img-reorder, banners-by-size, banners-by-link, webbugs, refresh-tags,
+ html-annoyances, content-cookies and fun filters
+ - Replaced filter "popups" by choice between two modes:
+ - "unsolicited-popups" tries to catch only the unsolicited ones
+ - "all-popups" tries to kill them all (as before)
+ - New filter "tiny-textforms" Help those tiny or hard-wrap textareas.
+ - New filter "jumping-windows" that prevents windows from resizing
+ and moving themselves
+ - New filter "demoronizer" which fixes MS's abuse of std charsets
+ (common cases anyway).

+ all filters for exploits shall be collected

+ targets.

+ problem involving remote toggling and action file manipulation
+ by mailicious websites.
