affect Exim's operation, with an unchanged configuration file. For new
options, and new features, see the NewStuff file next to this ChangeLog.
-Exim version 4.95
+Exim version 4.97
-----------------
-JH/01 Move the wait-for-next-tick (needed for unique messmage IDs) from
+JH/01 The hosts_connection_nolog main option now also controls "no MAIL in
+ SMTP connection" log lines.
+
+JH/02 Option default value updates:
+ - queue_fast_ramp (main) true (was false)
+ - remote_max_parallel (main) 4 (was 2)
+
+JH/03 Cache static regex pattern compilations, for use by ACLs.
+
+JH/04 Bug 2903: avoid exit on an attempt to rewrite a malformed address.
+ Make the rewrite never match and keep the logging. Trust the
+ admin to be using verify=header-syntax (to actually reject the message).
+
+JH/05 Follow symlinks for placing a watch on TLS creds files. This means
+ (under Linux) we watch the dir containing the final file; previously
+ it would be the dir with the first symlink. We still do not monitor
+ the entire path.
+
+JH/06 Check for bad chars in rDNS for sender_host_name. The OpenBSD (at least)
+ dn_expand() is happy to pass them through.
+
+JH/07 OpenSSL Fix auto-reload of changed server OCSP proof. Previously, if
+ the file with the proof had an unchanged name, the new proof(s) were
+ loaded on top of the old ones (and nover used; the old ones were stapled).
+
+JH/08 Bug 2915: Fix use-after-free for $regex<n> variables. Previously when
+ more than one message arrived in a single connection a reference from
+ the earlier message could be re-used. Often a sigsegv resulted.
+ These variables were introduced in Exim 4.87.
+ Debug help from Graeme Fowler.
+
+JH/09 Fix ${filter } for conditions that modify $value. Previously the
+ modified version would be used in construction the result, and a memory
+ error would occur.
+
+JH/10 GnuTLS: fix for (IOT?) clients offering no TLS extensions at all.
+ Find and fix by Jasen Betts.
+
+JH/11 OpenSSL: fix for ancient clients needing TLS support for versions earlier
+ than TLSv1,2, Previously, more-recent versions of OpenSSL were permitting
+ the systemwide configuration to override the Exim config.
+
+HS/01 Bug 2728: Introduce EDITME option "DMARC_API" to work around incompatible
+ API changes in libopendmarc.
+
+JH/12 Bug 2930: Fix daemon startup. When started from any process apart from
+ pid 1, in the normal "background daemon" mode, having to drop process-
+ group leadership also lost track of needing to create listener sockets.
+
+JH/13 Bug 2929: Fix using $recipients after ${run...}. A change made for 4.96
+ resulted in the variable appearing empty. Find and fix by Ruben Jenster.
+
+JH/14 Bug 2933: Fix regex substring match variables for null matches. Since 4.96
+ a capture group which obtained no text (eg. "(abc)*" matching zero
+ occurrences) could cause a segfault if the corresponding $<n> was
+ expanded.
+
+
+Exim version 4.96
+-----------------
+
+JH/01 Move the wait-for-next-tick (needed for unique message IDs) from
after reception to before a subsequent reception. This should
mean slightly faster delivery, and also confirmation of reception
to senders.
was touched.
JH/16 Debugging initiated by an ACL control now continues through into routing
- and transport processes, when delivery is immediate. Previously debugging
- stopped any time Exim re-execs.
+ and transport processes. Previously debugging stopped any time Exim
+ re-execs, or for processing a queued message.
JH/17 The "expand" debug selector now gives more detail, specifically on the
result of expansion operators and items.
session, avoiding oferring mismatching sessions to such a server.
Previously only the server IP was used.
+JH/30 Fix string_copyn() for limit greater than actual string length.
+ Previously the copied amount was the limit, which could result in a
+ overlapping memcpy for newly allocated destination soon after a
+ source string shorter than the limit. Found/investigated by KM.
+
+JH/31 Bug 2886: GnuTLS: Do not free the cached creds on transport connection
+ close; it may be needed for a subsequent connection. This caused a
+ SEGV on primary-MX defer. Found/investigated by Gedalya & Andreas.
+
+JH/32 Fix CHUNKING for a second message on a connection when the first was
+ rejected. Previously we did not reset the chunking-offered state, and
+ erroneously rejected the BDAT command. Investigation help from
+ Jesse Hathaway.
+
+JH/33 Fis ${srs_encode ...} to handle an empty sender address, now returning
+ an empty address. Previously the expansion returned an error.
+
+HS/01 Bug 2855: Handle a v4mapped sender address given us by a frontending
+ proxy. Previously these were misparsed, leading to paniclog entries.
