+ <p><span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy 3.0.34</span> fixes a few minor bugs and comes with a couple of general
+ improvements and new features.</p>
+ <p>Changes in <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy 3.0.34</span> stable:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bug fixes:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Improve the handling of chunk-encoded responses by buffering the data even if filters are disabled and
+ properly keeping track of where the various chunks are supposed to start and end. Previously Privoxy would
+ merely check the last bytes received to see if they looked like the last-chunk. This failed to work if the
+ last-chunk wasn't received in one read and could also result in actual data being misdetected as
+ last-chunk. Should fix: SF support request #1739. Reported by: withoutname.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>remove_chunked_transfer_coding(): Refuse to de-chunk invalid data Previously the data could get
+ corrupted even further. Now we simply pass the unmodified data to the client.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>gif_deanimate(): Tolerate multiple image extensions in a row. This allows to deanimate all the gifs on:
+ https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Animated_smilies Fixes SF bug #795 reported by Celejar.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>OpenSSL generate_host_certificate(): Use X509_get_subject_name() instead of X509_get_issuer_name() to
+ get the issuer for generated website certificates so there are no warnings in the browser when using an
+ intermediate CA certificate instead of a self-signed root certificate. Problem reported and patch submitted
+ by Chakib Benziane.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>can_filter_request_body(): Fix a log message that contained a spurious u.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>handle_established_connection(): Check for pending TLS data from the client before checking if data is
+ available on the connection. The TLS library may have already consumed all the data from the client
+ response in which case poll() and select() will not detect that data is available to be read. Sponsored by:
+ Robert Klemme.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>ssl_send_certificate_error(): Don't crash if there's no certificate information available. This is only
+ relevant when Privoxy is built with wolfSSL 5.0.0 or later (code not yet published). Earlier wolfSSL
+ versions or the other TLS backends don't seem to trigger the crash.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>socks5_connect(): Add support for target hosts specified as IPv4 address Previously the IP address was
+ sent as domain.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>General improvements:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add a client-body-tagger action which creates tags based on the content of the request body. Sponsored
+ by: Robert Klemme.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>When client-body filters are enabled, buffer the whole request before opening a connection to the
+ server. Makes it less likely that the server connection times out and we don't open a connection if the
+ buffering fails anyway. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add periods to a couple of log messages.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>accept_connection(): Add missing space to a log message.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Initialize ca-related defaults with strdup_or_die() so errors aren't silently ignored.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>make_path: Use malloc_or_die() in cases where allocation errors were already fatal anyway.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>handle_established_connection(): Improve an error message slightly.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>receive_client_request(): Reject https URLs without CONNECT request.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Include all requests in the statistics if mutexes are available. Previously in case of reused
+ connections only the last request got counted. The statistics still aren't perfect but it's an
+ improvement.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add read_socks_reply() and start using it in socks5_connect() to apply the socket timeout more
+ consistently.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>socks5_connect(): Deal with domain names in the socks reply</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add a filter for bundeswehr.de that hides the cookie and privacy info banner.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Action file improvements:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Disable filter{banners-by-size} for .freiheitsfoo.de/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Disable filter{banners-by-size} for freebsdfoundation.org/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Disable fast-redirects for consent.youtube.com/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Block requests to ups.xplosion.de/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Block requests for elsa.memoinsights.com/t.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Fix a typo in a test.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Disable fast-redirects for launchpad.net/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Unblock .eff.org/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Stop unblocking .org/.*(image|banner) which appears to be too generous The example URL
+ http://www.gnu.org/graphics/gnu-head-banner.png is already unblocked due to .gnu.org being unblocked.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Unblock adfd.org/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Disable filter{banners-by-link} for .eff.org/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Block requests to odb.outbrain.com/.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Disable fast-redirects for .gandi.net/.</p>

+ <li>
+ <p>Privoxy-Log-Parser:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bump version to 0.9.5.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Highlight more log messages.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Highlight the Crunch reason only once. Previously the "crunch reason" could also be highlighted when the
+ URL contained a matching string. The real crunch reason only occurs once per line, so there's no need to
+ continue looking for it after it has been found once. While at it, add a comment with an example log
+ line.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>uagen:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bump version to 1.2.4.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Update BROWSER_VERSION and BROWSER_REVISION to 102.0 to match the User-Agent of the current Firefox
+ ESR.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Explicitly document that changing the 'Gecko token' is suspicious.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Consistently use a lower-case 'c' as copyright symbol.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bump copyright.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add 'aarch64' as Linux architecture.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add OpenBSD architecture 'arm64'.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Stop using sparc64 as FreeBSD architecture. It hasn't been supported for a while now.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Build system:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Makefile: Add a 'dok' target that depends on the 'error' target to show the "You are not using GNU make
+ or did nor run configure" message.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>configure: Fix --with-msan option. Also (probably) reported by Andrew Savchenko.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>macOS build system:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Enable HTTPS inspection when building the macOS binary (using OpenSSL as TLS library).</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Documentation:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add OpenSSL to the list of libraries that may be licensed under the Apache 2.0 license in which case the
+ linked Privoxy binary has to be distributed under the GPLv3 or later.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>config: Fix the documented ca-directory default value. Reported by avoidr.</p>

+ <h2 class="SECT2"><a name="UPGRADERSNOTE" id="UPGRADERSNOTE">3.1. Note to Upgraders</a></h2>
+ <p>A quick list of things to be aware of before upgrading from earlier versions of <span class=
+ "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span>:</p>
<ul>
<li>
- <p>
- Bug fixes:
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>
- Always use the current toggle state for new requests.
- Previously new requests on reused connections inherited the
- toggle state from the previous request even though the toggle
- state could have changed. Reported by Robert Klemme.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Fixed two buffer-overflows in the (deprecated) static pcre
- code. These bugs are not considered security issues as the
- input is trusted. Found with afl-fuzz and ASAN.
- </p>
- </li>
- </ul>
+ <p>The recommended way to upgrade <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> is to backup your old
+ configuration files, install the new ones, verify that <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> is working
+ correctly and finally merge back your changes using <span class="APPLICATION">diff</span> and maybe
+ <span class="APPLICATION">patch</span>.</p>
+ <p>There are a number of new features in each <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> release and most of
+ them have to be explicitly enabled in the configuration files. Old configuration files obviously don't do
+ that and due to syntax changes using old configuration files with a new <span class=
+ "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> isn't always possible anyway.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>
- General improvements:
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>
- Added support for client-specific tags which allow Privoxy
- admins to pre-define tags that are set for all requests from
- clients that previously opted in through the CGI interface.
- They are useful in multi-user setups where admins may want to
- allow users to disable certain actions and filters for
- themselves without affecting others. In single-user setups
- they are useful to allow more fine-grained toggling. For
- example to disable request blocking while still crunching
- cookies, or to disable experimental filters only. This is an
- experimental feature, the syntax and behaviour may change in
- future versions. Sponsored by Robert Klemme.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Dynamic filters and taggers now support a $listen-address
- variable which contains the address the request came in on.
- For external filters the variable is called
- $PRIVOXY_LISTEN_ADDRESS. Original patch contributed by
- pursievro.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Add client-header-tagger 'listen-address'.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Include the listen-address in the log message when logging
- new requests. Patch contributed by pursievro.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Turn invalid max-client-connections values into fatal errors.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- The show-status page now shows whether or not dates before
- 1970 and after 2038 are expected to be handled properly. This
- is mainly useful for Privoxy-Regression-Test but could also
- come handy when dealing with time-related support requests.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- On Mac OS X the thread id in log messages are more likely to
- be unique now.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- When complaining about missing filters, the filter type is
- logged as well.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- A couple of harmless coverity warnings were silenced (CID
- #161202, CID #161203, CID #161211).
- </p>
- </li>
- </ul>
+ <p>Note that some installers remove earlier versions completely, including configuration files, therefore you
+ should really save any important configuration files!</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>
- Action file improvements:
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>
- Filtering is disabled for Range requests to let download
- resumption and Windows updates work with the default
- configuration.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Unblock ".ardmediathek.de/". Reported by ThTomate in #932.
- </p>
- </li>
- </ul>
+ <p>On the other hand, other installers don't overwrite existing configuration files, thinking you will want
+ to do that yourself.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>
- Documentation improvements:
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>
- Add FAQ entry for crashes caused by memory limits.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Remove obsolete FAQ entry about a bug in PHP 4.2.3.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Mention the new mailing lists were appropriate. As the
- archives have not been migrated, continue to mention the
- archives at SF in the contacting section for now.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Note that the templates should be adjusted if Privoxy is
- running as intercepting proxy without getting all requests.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- A bunch of links were converted to https://.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Rephrase onion service paragraph to make it more obvious that
- Tor is involved and that the whole website (and not just the
- homepage) is available as onion service.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Streamline the "More information" section on the homepage
- further by additionally ditching the link to the 'See also'
- section of the user manual. The section contains mostly links
- that are directly reachable from the homepage already and the
- rest is not significant enough to get a link from the
- homepage.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Change the add-header{} example to set the DNT header and use
- a complete section to make copy and pasting more convenient.
- Add a comment to make it obvious that adding the header is
- not recommended for obvious reasons. Using the DNT header as
- example was suggested by Leo Wzukw.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Streamline the support-and-service template Instead of
- linking to the various support trackers (whose URLs hopefully
- change soon), link to the contact section of the user manual
- to increase the chances that users actually read it.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Add a FAQ entry for tainted sockets.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- More sections in the documentation have stable URLs now.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- FAQ: Explain why 'ping config.privoxy.org' is not expected to
- reach a local Privoxy installation.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Note that donations done through Zwiebelfreunde e.V.
- currently can't be checked automatically.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Updated section regarding starting Privoxy under OS X.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Use dedicated start instructions for FreeBSD and ElectroBSD.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Removed release instructions for AIX. They haven't been
- working for years and unsurprisingly nobody seems to care.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Removed obsolete reference to the solaris-dist target.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Updated the release instructions for FreeBSD.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Removed unfinished release instructions for Amiga OS and
- HP-UX 11.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Added a pointer to the Cygwin Time Machine for getting the
- last release of Cygwin version 1.5 to use for building
- Privoxy on Windows.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Various typos have been fixed.
- </p>
- </li>
- </ul>
+ <p>In the default configuration only fatal errors are logged now. You can change that in the <a href=
+ "config.html#DEBUG">debug section</a> of the configuration file. You may also want to enable more verbose
+ logging until you verified that the new <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> version is working as
+ expected.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>
- Infrastructure improvements:
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>
- The website is no longer hosted at SourceForge and can be
- reached through https now.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- The mailing lists at SourceForge have been deprecated, you
- can subscribe to the new ones at: https://lists.privoxy.org/
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Migrating the remaining services from SourceForge is work in
- progress (TODO list item #53).
- </p>
- </li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Build system improvements:
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>
- Add configure argument to optimistically redefine FD_SETSIZE
- with the intent to change the maximum number of client
- connections Privoxy can handle. Only works with some libcs.
- Sponsored by Robert Klemme.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Let the tarball-dist target skip files in ".git".
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Let the tarball-dist target work in cwds other than current.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Make the 'clean' target faster when run from a git
- repository.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Include tools in the generic distribution.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Let the gen-dist target work in cwds other than current.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Sort find output that is used for distribution tarballs to
- get reproducible results.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Don't add '-src' to the name of the tar ball generated by the
- gen-dist target. The package isn't a source distribution but
- a binary package. While at it, use a variable for the name to
- reduce the chances that the various references get out of
- sync and fix the gen-upload target which was looking in the
- wrong directory.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Add regression-tests.action to the files that are
- distributed.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- The gen-dist target which was broken since 2002 (r1.92) has
- been fixed.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Remove genclspec.sh which has been obsolete since 2009.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Remove obsolete reference to Redhat spec file.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Remove the obsolete announce target which has been commented
- out years ago.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Let rsync skip files if the checksums match.
- </p>
- </li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Privoxy-Regression-Test:
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>
- Add a "Default level offset" directive which can be used to
- change the default level by a given value. This directive
- affects all tests located after it until the end of the file
- or a another "Default level offset" directive is reached. The
- purpose of this directive is to make it more convenient to
- skip similar tests in a given file without having to remove
- or disable the tests completely.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Let test level 17 depend on FEATURE_64_BIT_TIME_T instead of
- FEATURE_PTHREAD which has no direct connection to the time_t
- size.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Fix indentation in perldoc examples.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Don't overlook directives in the first line of the action
- file.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Bump version to 0.7.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Fix detection of the Privoxy version now that https:// is
- used for the website.
- </p>
- </li>
- </ul>
+ <p>Three other config file settings are now off by default: <a href=

- <p>
- A quick list of things to be aware of before upgrading from earlier
- versions of <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span>:
- </p>
- <p>
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>
- The recommended way to upgrade <span class=
- "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> is to backup your old
- configuration files, install the new ones, verify that <span
- class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> is working correctly and
- finally merge back your changes using <span class=
- "APPLICATION">diff</span> and maybe <span class=
- "APPLICATION">patch</span>.
- </p>
- <p>
- There are a number of new features in each <span class=
- "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> release and most of them have to
- be explicitly enabled in the configuration files. Old
- configuration files obviously don't do that and due to syntax
- changes using old configuration files with a new <span class=
- "APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> isn't always possible anyway.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Note that some installers remove earlier versions completely,
- including configuration files, therefore you should really save
- any important configuration files!
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- On the other hand, other installers don't overwrite existing
- configuration files, thinking you will want to do that
- yourself.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- In the default configuration only fatal errors are logged now.
- You can change that in the <a href="config.html#DEBUG">debug
- section</a> of the configuration file. You may also want to
- enable more verbose logging until you verified that the new
- <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy</span> version is working as
- expected.
- </p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>
- Three other config file settings are now off by default: <a
- href=
- "config.html#ENABLE-REMOTE-TOGGLE">enable-remote-toggle</a>, <a
- href=
- "config.html#ENABLE-REMOTE-HTTP-TOGGLE">enable-remote-http-toggle</a>,
- and <a href=
- "config.html#ENABLE-EDIT-ACTIONS">enable-edit-actions</a>. If
- you use or want these, you will need to explicitly enable them,
- and be aware of the security issues involved.
