- </ul>
- <p>Changes in <span class="APPLICATION">Privoxy 3.0.27</span> stable:</p>
- <ul>
<li>
<p>General improvements:</p>
<ul>
<li>
- <p>Add a receive-buffer-size directive which can be used to set the size of the previously statically
- allocated buffer in handle_established_connection(). Increasing the buffer size increases Privoxy's memory
- usage but can lower the number of context switches and thereby reduce the CPU usage and potentially
- increase the throughput. This is mostly relevant for fast network connections and large downloads that
- don't require filtering. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <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>Add a listen-backlog directive which specifies the backlog value passed to listen(). Sponsored by:
- Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>pcrs: Request JIT compilation if it's supported and the filter isn't dynamic. This can speed up
+ filtering.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add an enable-accept-filter directive which allows to toggle accept filter support at run time when
- compiled with FEATURE_ACCEPT_FILTER support. It makes testing more convenient and now that it's optional we
- can emit an error message if enabling the accept filter fails. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Added support for Brotli decompression. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add a delay-response{} action. This is useful to tar pit JavaScript requests that are endlessly retried
- in case of blocks. It can also be used to simulate a slow Internet connection. Sponsored by: Robert
- Klemme</p>
+ <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>Add a 'trusted-cgi-referrer' directive. It allows to configure another page or site that can be used to
- reach sensitive CGI resources. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <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>Add a --fuzz mode which exposes Privoxy internals to input from files or stdout. Mainly tested with
- American Fuzzy Lop. For details see: https://www.fabiankeil.de/talks/fuzzing-on-freebsd/ This work was
- partially funded with donations and done as part of the Privoxy month in 2015.</p>
+ <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>Consistently use the U(ngreedy) flag in the 'img-reorder' filter.</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>listen_loop(): Reuse a single thread attribute object The object doesn't change and creating a new one
- for every thread is a waste of (CPU) time. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Add SOCKS5 username/password support. Based on a patch by Sam, improved by Ivan Romanov. Closes
+ Patch#141 and solves TODO#105.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Free csp resources in the thread that belongs to the csp instead of the main thread which has enough on
- its plate already. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Bump the maximum number of action and filter files to 100 each. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Improve 'socket timeout reached' message. Log the timeout that was triggered and downgrade the log level
- to LOG_LEVEL_CONNECT to reduce the log noise with common debug settings. The timeout isn't necessary the
- result of an error and usually merely indicates that Privoxy's socket timeout is lower than the relevant
- timeouts used by client and server. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Fixed handling of filters with "split-large-forms 1" when using the CGI editor. Reported by withoutname
+ in #921.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Explicitly taint the server socket in case of CONNECT requests. This doesn't fix any known problems, but
- makes some log messages less confusing.</p>
+ <p>Better detect a mismatch of connection details when figuring out whether or not a connection can be
+ reused.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Let write_pid_file() terminate if the pid file can't be opened. Logging the issue at info level is
- unlikely to help.</p>
+ <p>Don't send a "Connection failure" message instead of the "DNS failure" message. Sponsored by: Robert
+ Klemme</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>log_error(): Reduce the mutex-protected area by not using a heap-allocated buffer that is shared between
- all threads. This increases performance and reduces the latency with verbose debug settings and multiple
- concurrent connections. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <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>Let zalloc() use calloc() if it's available. In some situations using calloc() can be faster than
- malloc() + memset() and it should never be slower. In the real world the impact of this change is not
- expected to be noticeable. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Fixed locking around localtime() and gmtime().</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Never use select() when poll() is available. On most platforms select() is limited by FD_SETSIZE while
- poll() is not. This was a scaling issue for multi-user setups. Using poll() has no downside other than the
- usual risk that code modifications may introduce new bugs that have yet to be found and fixed. At least in
- theory this commit could also reduce the latency when there are lots of connections and select() would use
- "bit fields in arrays of integers" to store file descriptors. Another side effect is that Privoxy no longer
- has to stop monitoring the client sockets when pipelined requests are waiting but can't be read yet. This
- code keeps the select()-based code behind ifdefs for now but hopefully it can be removed soonish to make
- the code more readable. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add a 'reproducible-tarball-dist' target. It's currently separate from the "tarball-dist" target because
- it requires a tar implementation with mtree spec support. It's far from being perfect and does not enforce
- a reproducible mode, but it's better than nothing.</p>
+ <p>Remove the fallback snprintf() implementation Now that OS/2 support is gone we no longer need it.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Use arc4random() if it's available. While Privoxy doesn't need high quality pseudo-random numbers
- there's no reason not to use them when we can and this silences a warning emitted by code checkers that
- can't tell whether or not the quality matters.</p>
+ <p>Fixed a bunch of format specifiers log messages.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Show the FEATURE_EXTERNAL_FILTERS status on the status page. Better late than never. Previously a couple
- of tests weren't executed as Privoxy-Regression-Test couldn't detect that the FEATURE_EXTERNAL_FILTERS
- dependency was satisfied.</p>
+ <p>Added a missing apostrophe in the 'More Privoxy' menu.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Ditch FEATURE_IMAGE_DETECT_MSIE. It's an obsolete workaround we inherited from Junkbuster and was
- already disabled by default. Users that feel the urge to work around issues with image requests coming from
- an Internet Explorer version from more than 15 years ago can still do this using tags.</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Consistently use strdup_or_die() instead of strdup() in cases where allocation failures aren't expected.
- Using strdup_or_die() allows to remove a couple of explicit error checks which slightly reduces the size of
- the binary.</p>
+ <p>Fix build without FEATURE_CONNECTION_KEEP_ALIVE. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Insert a refresh tag into the /client-tags CGI page when serving it while a client-specific tag is
- temporarily enabled. This makes it less likely that the user ends up looking at tag state that is out of
- date.</p>
+ <p>Downgrade the 'Graceful termination requested' message to LOG_LEVEL_INFO as it isn't an error. Sponsored
+ by: Robert Klemme</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Use absolute URLs in the client-tag forms. It's more consistent with the rest of the CGI page URLs and
- makes it more convenient to copy the forms to external pages.</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>cgi_error_disabled(): Use status code 403 and an appropriate response line</p>
+ <p>Fixed a couple of cppcheck warnings.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Use a dedicated CGI handler to deal with tag-toggle requests As a result the /client-tags page is now
- safe to reach without trusted Referer header which makes bookmarking or linking to it more convenient.
- Finally, refreshing the /client-tags page to show the current state can no longer unintentionally repeat
- the previous toggle request.</p>
+ <p>Rename LOG_LEVEL_GPC to LOG_LEVEL_REQUEST. Only the shadow knows what "GPC" is supposed to stand
+ for.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Don't add a "Connection" header for CONNECT requests. Explicitly sending "Connection: close" is not
- necessary and apparently it causes problems with some forwarding proxies that will close the connection
- prematurely. Reported by Marc Thomas.</p>
+ <p>Remove SourceForge references in copyright headers.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Fix compiler warnings.</p>
+ <p>Upgrade a bunch of links to the homepage to https://.</p>
</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Bug fixes:</p>
- <ul>
<li>
- <p>rfc2553_connect_to(): Properly detect and log when poll() reached the time out. Previously this was
- logged as: Could not connect to [...]: No error: 0. which isn't very helpful. Sponsored by: Robert
- Klemme</p>
+ <p>Add 'no-brotli-accepted' filter which prevents the use of Brotli compression.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>add_tag_for_client(): Set time_to_live properly. Previously the time_to_live was always set for the
- first tag. Attempts to temporarily enable a tag would result in enabling it permanently unless no tag was
- enabled already.</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Revert r1.165 which didn't perform as advertised. While the idea was to use "https:// when creating
- links for the user manual on the website", the actual effect was to use "https://" when Privoxy was
- supposed to serve the user manual itself. Reported by Yossi Zahn on Privoxy-devel@.</p>
+ <p>Updated a bunch of tests that have to expect status code 403 now after r1.168/070e904afa5.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>socks5_connect(): Fail in case of unsupported address types. Previously they would not be detected right
- away and Privoxy would fail later on with an error message that didn't make it obvious that the problem was
- socks-related. So far, no such problems have actually been reported.</p>
+ <p>Lowercase the host name in the request line.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>socks5_connect(): Properly deal with socks replies that contain IPv6 addresses. Previously parts of the
- reply were left unread and later on treated as invalid HTTP response data. Fixes #904 reported by Danny
- Goossen who also provided the initial version of this patch.</p>
+ <p>Only set SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH if it's not already set so distributions can overwrite it through the
+ environment.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Action file improvements:</p>
+ <p>Documentation changes:</p>
<ul>
<li>
- <p>Unblock 'msdn.microsoft.com/'. It (presumably) isn't used to serve the kind of ads Privoxy should block
- by default but happens to serve lots of pages with URLs that are likely to result in false positives.
- Reported by bugreporter1694 in AF#939.</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Disable gif deanimation for requests tagged with CSS-REQUEST. The action will ignore content that isn't
- considered text anyway and explicitly disabling it makes this more obvious if "action" debugging (debug
- 65536) is enabled while "gif deanimation" debugging (debug 256) isn't.</p>
+ <p>Import the GNU GPLv3 and include it the user manual.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Explicitly disable HTML filters for requests with CSS-REQUEST tag. The filters are unlikely to break CSS
- files but executing them without (intentionally) getting any hits is a waste of cpu time and makes the log
- more noisy when running with "debug 64".</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Unblock 'adventofcode.com/'. Reported by Clint Adams in Debian bug #848211. Fixes Roland's AF#937.</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Unblock 'adlibris.com'. Reported by Wyrex in #935</p>
+ <p>FAQ: Remove an obsolete comment with a link to the long-gone PDF manual.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Unblock .golang.org/</p>
+ <p>FAQ: Add a link to the TODO list.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add fast-redirects exception for '.youtube.com/.*origin=http'</p>
+ <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>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Advertise the client-tags CGI page in the user manual.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Stop advertising the show-version CGI page which no longer exists.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Add yet another reason why +prevent-compression may cause problems.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Don't claim that contributors need ssh. It's only needed for committers.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Replace obsolete CVS instructions with Git instructions.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Remove an obsolete comment</p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Privoxy-Log-Parser:</p>
+ <p>Config file changes:</p>
<ul>
<li>
- <p>Don't gather host and resource statistics if they aren't requested. While the performance impact seems
- negligible this significantly reduces the memory usage if there are lots of requests.</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>Bump version as the behaviour (slightly) changed.</p>
+ <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>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Count connection failures as well in statistics mode. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Update the 'debug 1' description.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Count connection timeouts as well in statistics mode. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Add a missing 'client-specific-tag' directive.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Fix an 'uninitialized value' warning when generating statistics for a log file without response headers.
- While privoxy-log-parser was supposed to detect this already, the check was flawed and the message the user
- didn't see was somewhat confusing anyway. Now the message is less confusing, more helpful and actually
- printed. Reported by: Robert Klemme</p>
+ <p>Comment out trusted-cgi-referer pointing to example.org.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Documentation improvements:</p>
+ <p>Action file improvements:</p>
<ul>
<li>
- <p>Refer to the git sources instead of CVS.</p>
+ <p>Block requests to /(.*/)?piwik\.php</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Use GNU/Linux when referring to the OS instead of the kernel.</p>
+ <p>Block requests to .connectaserver.de/</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add FAQ entry for what to do if editing the config file is access denied.</p>
+ <p>Block requests to pixel.inforsea.com/</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add brief HTTP/2 FAQ.</p>

+ <p>Block requests to .ioam.de/</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add a client-header-tagger{client-ip-address} example.</p>
+ <p>Block requests to t.9gag.com/img.gif</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Stop suggesting that Privoxy is an anonymizing proxy. The term could lead to Privoxy users
- overestimating what it can do on its own (without Tor).</p>
+ <p>Block requests to .pixel.parsely.com/ as image</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Make it more obvious that SPI accepts Paypal, too. Currently most donations are made through the Paypal
- account managed by Zwiebelfreunde e.V. and a more even distribution would be useful.</p>
+ <p>Block requests to pixel.wp.com/</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Suggest to log applying actions as well when reproducing problems.</p>
+ <p>Disable fast-redirects for .librarything.com/</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Explicitly mention that Privoxy binaries are built by individuals on their own systems. Buyer
- beware!</p>
+ <p>Disable fast-redirects for issue.freebsdfoundation.org/</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Mention the release feed on the homepage.</p>
+ <p>Disable fast-redirects for .twitter.com/.*origin=http</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Remove a mysterious comment with a GNU FDL link as it isn't useful and could confuse license scanners.
- In May 2002 it was briefly claimed that "this document" was covered by the GNU FDL. The commit message
- (r1.5) doesn't explain the motivation or whether all copyright holders were actually asked and agreed to
- the declared license change. It's thus hard to tell whether or not the license change was legit, but
- luckily two days later the "doc license" was "put" "back to GPL" anyway (r1.6). At the same time the
- offending comment with a link to the FDL (not the GPL) was added for no obvious reason. Now it's gone
- again.</p>

</li>
<li>
- <p>Remove a couple of SourceForge references in a comment. While at it, fix the grammar.</p>
+ <p>Only show HTTP version distribution if at least one version has been detected.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Move the site-specific documentation block before the generic one. While most Privoxy installations
- don't have a site-specific documentation block, in cases were it exists it's likely to be more relevant
- than the generic one. Showing it first makes it less likely that users stop reading before they reach it,
- especially on pages that don't fit on the screen.</p>
+ <p>Only show crunch statistics if crunches were detected.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Warn if the request counts differ.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Generate statistics if the log only contains LOG_LEVEL_CLF messages so it can be used with vanilla

+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Bump version to 0.9.1</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Include status code distribution in the stats.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Let the statistics include the size of the content Privoxy transferred excluding HTTP headers.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Get with the program and expect all requests to be logged with LOG_LEVEL_REQUEST. It's no longer
+ necessary to count both LOG_LEVEL_REQUEST and LOG_LEVEL_CRUNCH messages to get the total number of
+ requests.</p>
+ </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>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Properly highlight the filter results message. Previously a brace got lost.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>Prefer the number of CLF lines to get the total number of requests as it works with older Privoxy
+ versions as well.</p>

- <p>Prefer openjade to jade. On some systems Jade produces HTML with unescaped ampersands in URLs.</p>
+ <p>Turn curl's globbing mode off so we can allow more characters in URLs.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Prefer OpenSP to SP to be consistent.</p>
+ <p>Allow '[' and ']' in URLs.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Have Docbook generated HTML files be straight ASCII. Dealing with a mixture of ISO-8859 and UTF-8 files
- is problematic.</p>
+ <p>Include the action file when complaining about missing Sticky Actions.</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Echo the filename to stderr for 'make dok-tidy'. Make it a bit easier to find errors in docbook
- generated HTML.</p>
+ <p>Fix a sentence in the documentation.</p>

<li>
- <p>Remove support for AmigaOS.</p>
+ <p>Skip CLIENT-TAG patterns. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>

- <p>Update windows build system to use supported software. The cygwin gcc -mno-cygwin option is no longer
- supported, so convert the windows build system to use the cygwin cross-compiler to build "native" code.</p>
+ <p>Skip patterns that have already been converted. It should now be safe to "convert" a file multiple
+ times. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
</li>
<li>
- <p>Add --enable-static-linking option for configure does the same thing as LDFLAGS=-static; ./configure but
- nicer than mixing evars and configure options.</p>
+ <p>Add the new 'PCRE-HOST-PATTERN:' prefix. Sponsored by: Robert Klemme</p>
