Bug fixes:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
- Check the actual URL for redirects when https inspecting requests.
- Previously Privoxy would only check the path which resulted in
- rewrite results being rejected as invalid URLs.
- Reported by withoutname in #1736.
+ handle_established_connection(): Skip the poll()/select() calls
+ if TLS data is pending on the server socket. The TLS library may
+ have already consumed all the data from the server response in
+ which case poll() and select() will not detect that data is
+ available to be read.
+ Fixes SF bug #926 reported by Wen Yue.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Let the hide-referrer code tolerate Referer headers with https:// URLs.
- Previously they would always be treated like a changed host.
+ continue_https_chat(): Update csp->server_connection.request_sent
+ after sending the request to make sure the latency is calculated
+ correctly. Previously https connections were not reused after
+ timeout seconds after the first request made on the connection.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Use the https headers if the show-request handler is reached through
- https://. Previously Privoxy would use the http headers which
- may be empty on a reused connection.
+ free_pattern_spec(): Don't try to free an invalid pointer
+ when unloading an action file with a TAG pattern while
+ Privoxy has been compiled without FEATURE_PCRE_HOST_PATTERNS.
+ Closes: SF patch request #147. Patch by Maxim Antonov.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Make CGI_PREFIX protocol-relative when building with FEATURE_HTTPS_INSPECTION.
- This unbreaks (at least) https://config.privoxy.org/client-tags whose
- buttons would previously use a http:// URL resulting in browser warnings.
+ Adjust build_request_line() to create a CONNECT request line when
+ https-inspecting and forwarding to a HTTP proxy.
+ Fixes SF bug #925 reported by Wen Yue.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Support using https-inspection and client-header-order at the same time.
- Previously Privoxy would crash.
- Reported by: Kai Raven
+ load_config(): Add a space that was missing in a log message.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Properly reject rewrites from http to https as they currently
- aren't supported. Previously Privoxy would wait for the client
- to establish an encrypted connection which obviously would not happen.
+ read_http_request_body(): Fix two error messages that used an
+ incorrect variable.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- When https inspection is enabled and Privoxy has been compiled with
- FEATURE_GRACEFUL_TERMINATION (not recommended for production builds),
- the TLS backend resources are free'd later on and only if no active
- connections are left. Prevents crashes when exiting "gracefully" at the
- wrong time.

- Let the uninstall target remove the config file even if DESTDIR
- is set and properly announce the deletion of the configuration files.

- Allow to rewrite the request destination for https-inspected

</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Add the new action suppress-tag{} which can be used to prevent
- a tagger from adding a tag. Patch submitted by Maxim Antonov.
- Sponsored by: Robert Klemme
+ Add a CGI handler for /wpad.dat that returns a
+ Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) file.
+ Among other things, it can be used to instruct clients
+ through DHCP to use Privoxy as proxy.
+ For example with the dnsmasq option:
+ dhcp-option=252,http://config.privoxy.org/wpad.dat
+ Initial patch by Richard Schneidt.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Gracefully handle existing website keys without matching certificates.
- This can happen if Privoxy was previously running with an invalid
- TLS configuration that didn't allow it to create a certificate.
+ Don't log the applied actions in process_encrypted_request()
+ Log them in continue_https_chat() instead to mirror chat().
+ Prevents the applied actions from getting logged twice
+ for the first request on an https-inspected connection.
</para>
</listitem>

<para>
- Recycle debug bit 4 for Tagging-related messages.
+ OpenSSL generate_host_certificate(): Use config.privoxy.org as Common Name
+ Org and Org Unit if the real host name is too long to get accepted by OpenSSL.
+ Clients should only care about the Subject Alternative Name
+ anyway and we can continue to use the real host name for it.
+ Reported by Miles Wen on privoxy-users@.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Improve the message shown when the client-tags CGI page
- is requested with no tags configured.
+ Establish the TLS connection with the client earlier and decide
+ how to route the request afterwards. This allows to change the
+ forwarding settings based on information from the https-inspected
+ request, for example the path.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Shorten the 'donate' and 'participate' links used by templates
- using redirects. Currently the redirects lead to the FAQ entries
- but in the future we may want to relocate the content and using
- redirects makes this more convenient.
+ listen_loop(): When shutting down gracefully, close listening ports
+ before waiting for the threads to exit. Allows to start a second
+ Privoxy with the same config file while the first Privoxy is still
+ running.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Log an error when a PCRE-HOST-PATTERN is used with
- FEATURE_PCRE_HOST_PATTERNS disabled. Don't treat this a
- fatal error so the regression tests can be used with and
- without FEATURE_PCRE_HOST_PATTERNS.
+ serve(): Close the client socket as well if the server socket
+ for an inspected connection has been closed. Privoxy currently
+ can't establish a new server connection when the client socket
+ is reused and would drop the connection in continue_https_chat()
+ anyway.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- The code compiles with older C compilers again.
+ Don't disable redirect checkers in redirect_url().
+ Disable them in handle_established_connection() instead.

+ +fast-redirects{} actions from being logged with LOG_LEVEL_ACTIONS.

</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Saved a couple of memory allocations when sorting client headers.
+ mbedTLS get_ciphersuites_from_string(): Use strlcpy() instead of strncpy().
+ Previously the terminating NUL wasn't copied which resulted
+ in a compiler warning. This didn't cause actual problems as
+ the target buffer was initialized by zalloc_or_die() so the
+ last byte of the target buffer was NUL already.
+ Actually copying the terminating NUL seems clearer, though.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Improved a couple of error messages.
+ Remove compiler warnings. "log_error(LOG_LEVEL_FATAL, ..."
+ doesn't return but apparently the compiler doesn't know that.
+ Get rid of several "this statement may fall through
+ [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]" warnings.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Saved memory allocations when using OpenSSL and checking if a
- key already exists.
+ Store the PEM certificate in a dynamically allocated buffer
+ when https-inspecting. Should prevent errors like:
+ 2021-03-16 22:36:19.148 7f47bbfff700 Error: X509 PEM cert len 16694 is larger than buffer len 16383
+ As a bonus it should slightly reduce the memory usage as most
+ certificates are smaller than the previously used fixed buffer.
