</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
- <p>General improvements:</p>
+ <p>Bug fixes:</p>
<ul>
<li>
- <p>Added experimental https inspection support which allows to filter https traffic. To enable it, install
- MbedTLS and configure with --with-mbedtls, or install OpenSSL or LibreSSL and configure with
- --with-openssl. Afterwards configure the directives in section 7 of the config file and enable the
- +https-inspection action. Initial MbedTLS-based code contributed by Vaclav Svec, initial OpenSSL support
- contributed by Maxim Antonov. With help from Nedzad Hrnjica and Ho+ Ho+ Ho+. Integration and improvements
- sponsored by Robert Klemme.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>pcrs: Request JIT compilation if it's supported and the filter isn't dynamic. This can speed up
- filtering.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Added support for Brotli decompression. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Added FEATURE_EXTENDED_STATISTICS to gather statistics for block reasons and filter executions. To
- enable it, configure with --enable-extended-statistics and visit http://config.privoxy.org/show-status.
- Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Use the IP_FREEBIND socket option, if defined. This allows Privoxy to bind to not-yet assigned IP
- addresses which is useful in failover environments. Patch by Sam Varshavchik.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Allow to use extended host patterns and vanilla host patterns at the same time by prefixing extended
- host patterns with "PCRE-HOST-PATTERN:". To enable this, configure with --enable-pcre-host-patterns.
- Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Added "Cross-origin resource sharing" (CORS) support. This allows to access Privoxy's CGI interface via
- JavaScript from another domain (white-listed with the new cors-allowed-origin directive). Based on a patch
- by Nedzad Hrnjica. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme.</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add SOCKS5 username/password support. Based on a patch by Sam, improved by Ivan Romanov. Closes
- Patch#141 and solves TODO#105.</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Bump the maximum number of action and filter files to 100 each. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Fixed handling of filters with "split-large-forms 1" when using the CGI editor. Reported by withoutname
- in #921.</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Better detect a mismatch of connection details when figuring out whether or not a connection can be
- reused.</p>
+ <p>load_config(): Add a space that was missing in a log message.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Don't send a "Connection failure" message instead of the "DNS failure" message. Sponsored by: Robert
- Klemme</p>
+ <p>read_http_request_body(): Fix two error messages that used an incorrect variable.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Let LOG_LEVEL_REQUEST log all requests. Previously unencrypted requests were only logged with
- LOG_LEVEL_REQUEST when they weren't crunched (in which case they were logged with LOG_LEVEL_CRUNCH). This
- was documented behaviour, but logging all requests seems more useful.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Fixed locking around localtime() and gmtime().</p>
+ <p>If the the response is chunk-encoded, ignore the Content-Length header sent by the server. Allows to
+ load https://redmine.lighttpd.net/ with filtering enabled.</p>
</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>General improvements:</p>
+ <ul>
<li>
- <p>Removed OS/2 support. We haven't provided OS/2 packages in years, it complicated the code and it
- depended on a fallback snprintf() implementation which is GPLv2 only.</p>
+ <p>Allow to edit the add-header action through the CGI editor by generalizing the code that got added with
+ the suppress-tag action. Closes SF patch request #146. Patch by Maxim Antonov.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Remove the fallback snprintf() implementation Now that OS/2 support is gone we no longer need it.</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Fixed a bunch of format specifiers log messages.</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Added a missing apostrophe in the 'More Privoxy' menu.</p>
+ <p>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@.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Explicitly prevent use of FEATURE_CONNECTION_SHARING without FEATURE_CONNECTION_KEEP_ALIVE. It makes no
- sense and does not compile anyway. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Fix build without FEATURE_CONNECTION_KEEP_ALIVE. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Downgrade the 'Graceful termination requested' message to LOG_LEVEL_INFO as it isn't an error. Sponsored
- by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>decompress_iob(): Downgrade the no-content message to LOG_LEVEL_RE_FILTER While at it, fix a typo in a
- comment. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Don't disable redirect checkers in redirect_url(). Disable them in handle_established_connection()
+ instead. Doing it in redirect_url() prevented the +redirect{} and +fast-redirects{} actions from being
+ logged with LOG_LEVEL_ACTIONS.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Fixed a couple of cppcheck warnings.</p>
+ <p>handle_established_connection(): Slightly improve a comment.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Rename LOG_LEVEL_GPC to LOG_LEVEL_REQUEST. Only the shadow knows what "GPC" is supposed to stand
- for.</p>
+ <p>handle_established_connection(): Fix a comment.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Remove SourceForge references in copyright headers.</p>
+ <p>socks5_connect(): Fix indentation.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Upgrade a bunch of links to the homepage to https://.</p>
+ <p>handle_established_connection(): Improve an error message.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add 'no-brotli-accepted' filter which prevents the use of Brotli compression.</p>
+ <p>create_pattern_spec(): Fix ifdef indentation.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Changed license for pcrs to GPLv2+ after getting the permission from Andreas. This allows to
- redistribute Privoxy under the GPLv3 which is required when linking to future mbedTLS versions which are
- expected to be licensed under the Apache 2.0 license only.</p>
+ <p>Fix comment typos.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Updated a bunch of tests that have to expect status code 403 now after r1.168/070e904afa5.</p>
+ <p>process_encrypted_request(): Improve a log message. The function only processes request headers and
+ there may still be unread request body data left to process.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Lowercase the host name in the request line.</p>
+ <p>chat(): Log the applied actions before deciding how to forward the request.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Only set SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH if it's not already set so distributions can overwrite it through the
- environment.</p>
+ <p>parse_time_header(): Silence a coverity complaint when building without assertions.</p>
</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Documentation changes:</p>
- <ul>
<li>
- <p>Explain that Privoxy has to be distributed under the GPLv3 (or later) when linked with an MbedTLS
- version that is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license.</p>
+ <p>receive_encrypted_request_headers(): Improve a log message.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Import the GNU GPLv3 and include it the user manual.</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Clarify FEATURE_FORCE_LOAD's description. It allows to bypass blocking not filtering and only does it if
- blocks aren't enforced. Reported by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>FAQ: Remove Zwiebelfreunde e.V. from the list of fiduciary sponsors As of 2021 they no longer handle
- donations for foreign organisations due to lack of resources.</p>
+ <p>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. Reported by: Wen Yue</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>FAQ: Remove an obsolete comment with a link to the long-gone PDF manual.</p>
+ <p>OpenSSL generate_host_certificate(): Fix two error messsages.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>FAQ: Add a link to the TODO list.</p>
+ <p>Improve description of handle_established_connection()</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>FAQ: Change the sponsor amounts to USD slightly rounding the converted amounts up to get simple numbers.
- Receiving USD is apparently easier for SPI and SPI is preferred by sponsors as they can send invoices.</p>
+ <p>OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Translate EVP_PKEY_EC to a string.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Advertise the client-tags CGI page in the user manual.</p>
+ <p>OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Remove pointless variable initialization.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Stop advertising the show-version CGI page which no longer exists.</p>
+ <p>OpenSSL ssl_store_cert(): Initialize pointer with NULL instead of 0.</p>
</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>

- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Config file changes:</p>
- <ul>
<li>
- <p>Change the suggested default-server-timeout to 5 to match the suggested keep-alive-timeout. Otherwise
- using the defaults would result in Privoxy reducing the default-server-timeout and logging an error
- message. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Block requests to eu-tlp01.kameleoon.eu/.</p>

</li>
<li>
- <p>Leverage the LOG_LEVEL_CLF message to gather statistics that where previously taken from
- LOG_LEVEL_HEADER lines. This results in less confusing results if https inspection is enabled in which case
- there are two LOG_LEVEL_HEADER lines with request lines. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
