+Since Exim version 4.94
+-----------------------
+
+JH/02 Bug 2587: Fix pam expansion condition. Tainted values are commonly used
+ as arguments, so an implementation trying to copy these into a local
+ buffer was taking a taint-enforcement trap. Fix by using dynamically
+ created buffers. Similar fix for radius expansion condition.
+
+JH/03 Bug 2586: Fix listcount expansion operator. Using tainted arguments is
+ reasonable, eg. to count headers. Fix by using dynamically created
+ buffers rather than a local. Do similar fixes for ACL actions "dcc",
+ "log_reject_target", "malware" and "spam"; the arguments are expanded
+ so could be handling tainted values.
+
+JH/04 Bug 2590: Fix -bi (newaliases). A previous code rearrangement had
+ broken the (no-op) support for this sendmail command. Restore it
+ to doing nothing, silently, and returning good status.
+
+JH/05 Bug 2593: Fix "vacation" in Exim filter. Previously, when a "once"
+ record path was given (or the default used) without a leading directory
+ path, an error occurred on trying to open it. Use the transport's working
+ directory.
+
+JH/06 Bug 2594: Change the name used for certificate name checks in the smtp
+ transport. Previously it was the name on the DNS A-record; use instead
+ the head of the CNAME chain leading there (if there is one). This seems
+ to align better with RFC 6125.
+
+JH/07 Bug 2597: Fix a resource leak. Using a lookup in obtaining a value for
+ smtp_accept_max_per_host allocated resources which were not released
+ when the limit was exceeded. This eventually crashed the daemon. Fix
+ by adding a relase action in that path.
+
+JH/08 Bug 2598: Fix verify ACL condition. The options for the condition are
+ expanded; previously using tainted values was rejected. Fix by using
+ dynamically-created buffers.
+
+JH/10 Bug 2603: Fix coding of string copying to only evaluate arguments once.
+ Previously a macro used one argument twice; when called with the
+ argument as an expression having side-effects, incorrect operation
+ resulted. Use an inlineable function.
+
+JH/11 Bug 2604: Fix request to cutthrough-deliver when a connection is already
+ held open for a verify callout. Previously this wan not accounted for
+ and a corrupt onward SMTP conversation resulted.
+
+JH/13 Fix dsearch "subdir" filter to ignore ".". Previously only ".." was
+ excluded, not matching the documentation.
+
+JH/14 Bug 2606: Fix a segfault in sqlite lookups. When no, or a bad, filename
+ was given for the sqlite_dbfile a trap resulted.
+
+JH/15 Fix "spam" ACL condition. Previously, tainted values for the "name"
+ argument resulted in a trap. There is no reason to disallow such; this
+ was a coding error.
+
+JH/16 Bug 2615: Fix pause during message reception, on systems that have been
+ suspended/resumed. The Linux CLOCK_MONOTONIC does not account for time
+ spent suspended, ignoring the Posix definition. Previously we assumed
+ it did and a constant offset from real time could be used as a correction.
+ Change to using the same clock source for the start-of-message and the
+ post-message next-tick-wait. Also change to using CLOCK_BOOTTIME if it
+ exists, just to get a clock slightly more aligned to reality.
+
+JH/17 Bug 2295: Fix DKIM signing to always semicolon-terminate. Although the
+ RFC says it is optional some validators care. The missing char was not
+ intended but triggered by a line-wrap alignement. Discovery and fix by
+ Guillaume Outters, hacked on by JH.
+
+JH/18 Bug 2617: Fix a taint trap in parse_fix_phrase(). Previously when the
+ name being quoted was tainted a trap would be taken. Fix by using
+ dynamicaly created buffers. The routine could have been called by a
+ rewrite with the "h" flag, by using the "-F" command-line option, or
+ by using a "name=" option on a control=submission ACL modifier.
+
+
Exim version 4.94
-----------------
- the autoreply transport file, log and once options
- file names used by the redirect router (including filter files)
- named-queue names
+ - paths used by single-key lookups
Previously this was permitted.
JH/21 Bug 2501: Fix init call in the heimdal authenticator. Previously it
only the first would provide a SIZE. This was due to the size information
not being properly tracked.
+JH/27 Bug 2530: When operating in a timezone with sub-minute offset, such as
+ TAI (at 37 seconds currently), pretend to be in UTC for time-related
+ expansion and logging. Previously, spurious values such as a future
+ minute could be seen.
+
+JH/28 Bug 2533: Fix expansion of ${tr } item. When called in some situations
+ it could crash from a null-deref. This could also affect the
+ ${addresses: } operator and ${readsock } item.
+
+JH/29 Bug 2537: Fix $mime_part_count. When a single connection had a non-mime
+ message following a mime one, the variable was not reset.
+
+JH/30 When an pipelined-connect fails at the first response, assume incorrect
+ cached capability (perhaps the peer reneged?) and immediately retry in
+ non-pipelined mode.
+
+JH/31 Fix spurious detection of timeout while writing to transport filter.
+
+JH/32 Bug 2541: Fix segfault on bad cmdline -f (sender) argument. Previously
+ an attempt to copy the string was made before checking it.
+
+JH/33 Fix the dsearch lookup to return an untainted result. Previously the
+ taint of the lookup key was maintained; we now regard the presence in the
+ filesystem as sufficient validation.
+
+JH/34 Fix the readsocket expansion to not segfault when an empty "options"
+ argument is supplied.
+
+JH/35 The dsearch lookup now requires that the directory is an absolute path.
+ Previously this was not checked, and nonempty relative paths made an
+ access under Exim's current working directory.
+
+JH/36 Bug 2554: Fix msg:defer event for the hosts_max_try_hardlimit case.
+ Previously no event was raised.
+
+JH/37 Bug 2552: Fix the check on spool space during reception to use the SIZE
+ parameter supplied by the sender MAIL FROM command. Previously it was
+ ignored, and only the check_spool_space option value for the required
+ leeway checked.
+
+JH/38 Fix $dkim_key_length. This should, after a DKIM verification, present
+ the size of the signing public-key. Previously it was instead giving
+ the size of the signature hash.
+
+JH/39 DKIM verification: the RFC 8301 restriction on sizes of RSA keys is now
+ the default. See the (new) dkim_verify_min_keysizes option.
+
+JH/40 Fix a memory-handling bug: when a connection carried multiple messages
+ and an ACL use a lookup for checking either the local_part or domain,
+ stale data could be accessed. Ensure that variable references are
+ dropped between messages.
+
+JH/41 Bug 2571: Fix SPA authenticator. Running as a server, an offset supplied
+ by the client was not checked as pointing within response data before
+ being used. A malicious client could thus cause an out-of-bounds read and
+ possibly gain authentication. Fix by adding the check.
+
+JH/42 Internationalisation: change the default for downconversion in the smtp
+ transport to be "if needed". Previously it was "as previously set" for
+ the message, which usually meant "if needed" for message-submission but
+ "no" for everything else. However, MTAs have been seen using SMTPUTF8
+ even when the envelope addresses did not need it, resulting in forwarding
+ failures to non-supporting MTAs. A downconvert in such cases will be
+ a no-op on the addresses, merely dropping the use of SMTPUTF8 by the
+ transport. The change does mean that addresses needing conversion will
+ be converted when previously a delivery failure would occur.
+
+JH/43 Fix possible long line in DSN. Previously when a very long SMTP error
+ response was received it would be used unchecked in a fail-DSN, violating
+ standards on line-length limits. Truncate if needed.
+
+HS/01 Remove parameters of the link to www.open-spf.org. The linked form
+ doesn't work. (Additionally add a new main config option to configure the
+ spf_smtp_comment)
+
Exim version 4.93
-----------------
JH/21 The smtp transport option "hosts_noproxy_tls" is now unset by default.
A single TCP connection by a client will now hold a TLS connection open
- for multiple message deliveries, by default. Previoud the default was to
+ for multiple message deliveries, by default. Previously the default was to
not do so.
JH/22 The smtp transport option "hosts_try_dane" now enables all hosts by
