-NAME="WHATSNEW"
->3. What's New in this Release</A
-></H1
-><P
-> There are only a few improvements and new features since
- <SPAN
-CLASS="APPLICATION"
->Privoxy 3.0.10</SPAN
->, the last stable release:</P
-><P
-> <P
-></P
-><UL
-><LI
-><P
-> On most platforms, outgoing connections can be kept alive and
- reused if the server supports it. Whether or not this improves
- things depends on the connection.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> When dropping privileges, membership in supplementary groups
- is given up as well. Not doing that can lead to Privoxy running
- with more rights than necessary and violates the principle of
- least privilege. Users of the --user option are advised to update.
- Thanks to Matthias Drochner for reporting the problem,
- providing the initial patch and testing the final version.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Passing invalid users or groups with the --user option
- didn't lead to program exit. Regression introduced in 3.0.7.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The match all section has been moved from default.action
- to a new file called match-all.action. As a result the
- default.action no longer needs to be touched by the user
- and can be safely overwritten by updates.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The standard.action file has been removed. Its content
- is now part of the default.action file.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> In some situations the logged content length was slightly too low.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Crunched requests are logged with their own log level.
- If you used "debug 1" in the past, you'll probably want
- to additionally enable "debug 1024", otherwise only passed
- requests will be logged. If you only care about crunched
- requests, simply replace "debug 1" with "debug 1024".
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The crunch reason has been moved to the beginning of the
- crunch message. For HTTP URLs, the protocol is logged as well.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Log messages are shortened by not printing the thread id
- on its own (as opposed to putting it inside "Privoxy()".
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The config option socket-timeout has been added to control
- the time Privoxy waits for data to arrive on a socket.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Support for remote toggling is controlled by the configure
- option --disable-toggle only. In previous versions it also
- depended on the action editor and thus configuring with the
- --disable-editor option would disable remote toggling support
- as well.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Requests with invalid HTTP versions are rejected.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The template symbol @date@ can be used to include a date(1)-like
- time string. Initial patch submitted by Endre Szabo.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> Responses from shoutcast servers are accepted again.
- Problem reported and fix suggested by Stefan.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The hide-forwarded-for-headers action has been replaced with
- the change-x-forwarded-for{} action which can also be used to
- add X-Forwarded-For headers. The latter functionality already
- existed in Privoxy versions prior to 3.0.7 but has been removed
- as it was often used unintentionally (by not using the
- hide-forwarded-for-headers action).
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> A "clear log" view option was added to the mingw32 version
- to clear out all of the lines in the Privoxy log window.
- Based on a patch submitted by T Ford.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The mingw32 version uses "critical sections" now, which prevents
- log message corruption under load. As a side effect, the
- "no thread-safe PRNG" warning could be removed as well.
- </P
-></LI
-><LI
-><P
-> The mingw32 version's task bar icon is crossed out and
- the color changed to gray if Privoxy is toggled off.
- </P
-></LI
-></UL
-></P
-><P
-> For a more detailed list of changes please have a look at the ChangeLog.</P

-> A quick list of things to be aware of before upgrading from earlier
- versions of <SPAN
-CLASS="APPLICATION"
->Privoxy</SPAN
->:</P
-><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
->
- <TT
-CLASS="FILENAME"
->standard.action</TT
-> has been merged into
- the <TT
-CLASS="FILENAME"
->default.action</TT
-> file.
- </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.

+ <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>

+ <p>Disable filter{banners-by-link} for .eff.org/.</p>

+ <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>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Rebuild developer-manual and tidy with 'HTML Tidy for FreeBSD version 5.8.0'.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Update developer manual with new macOS packaging instructions.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Note that the FreeBSD installation instructions work for ElectroBSD as well.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Note that FreeBSD/ElectroBSD users can try to install Privoxy as binary package using 'pkg'.</p>
