ChangeLog for Privoxy
--------------------------------------------------------------------
-*** Since 3.0.8 ***
+*** Since 3.0.9 Beta ***
+- The img-reorder filter is less likely to mess up JavaScript code in
+ img tags. Problem and solution reported by Glenn Washburn in #2014552.
-- Added SOCKS5 support. Patch provided by Eric M. Hopper.
+*** Version 3.0.9 Beta ***
+
+- Added SOCKS5 support (with address resolution done by
+ the SOCKS5 server). Patch provided by Eric M. Hopper.
- The "blocked" CGI pages include a block reason that was
provided as argument to the last-applying block action.
- If enable-edit-actions is disabled (the default since 3.0.7 beta)
- 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.
+- 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. This should prevent problems like:
+ * letting the session-cookies-only action slip
+ some Cookies through unmodified,
+ * only suppressing the first line of a header,
+ thus creating an invalid one, and
+ * to incorrectly block headers with valid timestamps
+ that weren't properly recognized.
+ Headers that could trigger these problems are unlikely to appear
+ in "normal" web traffic, but could be intentionally generated to
+ fool some of Privoxy's header parsers.
- Host information is gathered outside the main thread so it's less
likely to delay other incoming connections if the host is misconfigured.
- New config option "hostname" to use a hostname other than
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.
+- 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.
+- The show-url-info page provides an OpenSearch Description that
+ allows to access the page through browser search plugins.
+- Custom client-header filters that rewrite the request line
+ incorrectly no longer cause Privoxy to crash. Reported by din_a4.
- The obsolete kill-popups action has been removed as the
- PCRS-based popup filters can do the same and are less
- unreliable.
+ PCRS-based popup filters can do the same and are slightly
+ less unreliable.
- The inspect-jpegs action has been removed.
- 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.
+- Privoxy-Regression-Test has been significantly improved.
+- Most sections in the default.action file contain tests for
+ Privoxy-Regression-Test to verify that they are working as intended.
+- Parts of Privoxy have been refactored to increase maintainability.
+- Building with zlib (if available) is done by default.
*** Version 3.0.8 ***
