This should increase the chances that + the still-open connection will be reused for the client's next + request to the same destination. + +*** Version 3.0.12 *** + +- The socket-timeout option now also works on platforms whose + select() implementation modifies the timeout structure. + Previously the timeout was triggered even if the connection + didn't stall. Reported by cyberpatrol. +- The Connection: keep-alive code properly deals with files + larger than 2GB. Previously the connection was closed too + early. +- The content length for files above 2GB is logged correctly. +- The user-manual directive on the show-status page links to + the documentation location specified with the directive, + not to the Privoxy website. +- When running in daemon mode, Privoxy doesn't log anything + to the console unless there are errors before the logfile + has been opened. +- The show-status page prints warnings about invalid directives + on the same line as the directives themselves. +- Fixed several justified (but harmless) compiler warnings, + mostly on 64 bit platforms. +- The mingw32 version explicitly requests the default charset + to prevent display problems with some fonts available on more + recent Windows versions. Patch by Burberry. +- The mingw32 version uses the Privoxy icon in the alt-tab + windows. Patch by Burberry. +- The timestamp and the thread id is omitted in the "Fatal error" + message box on mingw32. +- Fixed two related mingw32-only buffer overflows. Triggering + them required control over the configuration file, therefore + this isn't seen as a security issue. +- In verbose mode, or if the new option --show-skipped-tests + is used, Privoxy-Regression-Test logs skipped tests and the + skip reason. + +*** Version 3.0.11 *** + +- 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. +- 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. +- Passing invalid users or groups with the --user option + didn't lead to program exit. Regression introduced in 3.0.7. +- 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. +- The standard.action file has been removed. Its content + is now part of the default.action file. +- In some situations the logged content length was slightly too low. +- 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". +- The crunch reason has been moved to the beginning of the + crunch message. For HTTP URLs, the protocol is logged as well. +- Log messages are shortened by printing the thread id on its + own (as opposed to putting it inside the string "Privoxy()"). +- The config option socket-timeout has been added to control + the time Privoxy waits for data to arrive on a socket. +- 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. +- Requests with invalid HTTP versions are rejected. +- The template symbol @date@ can be used to include a date(1)-like + time string. Initial patch submitted by Endre Szabo. +- Responses from shoutcast servers are accepted again. + Problem reported and fix suggested by Stefan. +- 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). +- 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. +- 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. +- The mingw32 version's task bar icon is crossed out and + the color changed to gray if Privoxy is toggled off. + *** Version 3.0.10 *** + - Ordinary configuration file changes no longer cause program termination on OS/2 if the name of the logfile hasn't been changed as well.
