See NewStuff for details. + +PH/01 When a transport filter timed out in a pipe delivery, and the pipe + command itself ended in error, the underlying message about the transport + filter timeout was being overwritten with the pipe command error. Now the + underlying error message should be appended to the second error message. + + +Exim version 4.51 +----------------- + +TK/01 Added Yahoo DomainKeys support via libdomainkeys. See + doc/experimental-spec.txt for details. (http://domainkeys.sf.net) + +TK/02 Fix ACL "control" statement not being available in MIME ACL. + +TK/03 Fix ACL "regex" condition not being available in MIME ACL. + +PH/01 Installed a patch from the Sieve maintainer that allows -bf to be used + to test Sieve filters that use "vacation". + +PH/02 Installed a slightly modified version of Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos' patch + that changes the way the GnuTLS parameters are stored in the cache file. + The new format can be generated externally. For backward compatibility, + if the data in the cache doesn't make sense, Exim assumes it has read an + old-format file, and it generates new data and writes a new file. This + means that you can't go back to an older release without removing the + file. + +PH/03 A redirect router that has both "unseen" and "one_time" set does not + work if there are any delivery delays because "one_time" forces the + parent to be marked "delivered", so its unseen clone is never tried + again. For this reason, Exim now forbids the simultaneous setting of + these two options. + +PH/04 Change 4.11/85 fixed an obscure bug concerned with addresses that are + redirected to themselves ("homonym" addresses). Read the long ChangeLog + entry if you want to know the details. The fix, however, neglected to + consider the case when local delivery batching is involved. The test for + "previously delivered" was not happening when checking to see if an + address could be batched with a previous (undelivered) one; under + certain circumstances this could lead to multiple deliveries to the same + address. + +PH/05 Renamed the macro SOCKLEN_T as EXIM_SOCKLEN_T because AIX uses SOCKLEN_T + in its include files, and this causes problems building Exim. + +PH/06 A number of "verify =" ACL conditions have no options (e.g. verify = + header_syntax) but Exim was just ignoring anything given after a slash. + In particular, this caused confusion with an attempt to use "verify = + reverse_host_lookup/defer_ok". An error is now given when options are + supplied for verify items that do not have them. (Maybe reverse_host_ + lookup should have a defer_ok option, but that's a different point.) + +PH/07 Increase the size of the buffer for incoming SMTP commands from 512 (as + defined by RFC 821) to 2048, because there were problems with some AUTH + commands, and RFC 1869 says the size should be increased for extended + SMTP commands that take arguments. + +PH/08 Added ${dlfunc dynamically loaded function for expansion (code from Tony + Finch). + +PH/09 Previously, an attempt to use ${perl when it wasn't compiled gave an + "unknown" error; now it says that the functionality isn't in the binary. + +PH/10 Added a nasty fudge to try to recognize and flatten LDAP passwords in + an address' error message when a string expansion fails (syntax or + whatever). Otherwise the password may appear in the log. Following change + PH/42 below, there is no longer a chance of it appearing in a bounce + message. + +PH/11 Installed exipick version 20050225.0 from John Jetmore. + +PH/12 If the last host in a fallback_hosts list was multihomed, only the first + of its addresses was ever tried. (Bugzilla bug #2.) + +PH/13 If "headers_add" in a transport didn't end in a newline, Exim printed + the result incorrectly in the debug output. (It correctly added a newline + to what was transported.) + +TF/01 Added $received_time. + +PH/14 Modified the default configuration to add an acl_smtp_data ACL, with + commented out examples of how to interface to a virus scanner and to + SpamAssassin. Also added commented examples of av_scanner and + spamd_address settings. + +PH/15 Further to TK/02 and TK/03 above, tidied up the tables of what conditions + and controls are allowed in which ACLs. There were a couple of minor + errors. Some of the entries in the conditions table (which is a table of + where they are NOT allowed) were getting very unwieldy; rewrote them as a + negation of where the condition IS allowed. + +PH/16 Installed updated OS/os.c-cygwin from the Cygwin maintainer. + +PH/17 The API for radiusclient changed at release 0.4.0. Unfortunately, the + header file does not have a version number, so I've had to invent a new + value for RADIUS_LIB_TYPE, namely "RADIUSCLIENTNEW" to request the new + API. The code is untested by me (my Linux distribution still has 0.3.2 of + radiusclient), but it was contributed by a Radius user. + +PH/18 Installed Lars Mainka's patch for the support of CRL collections in + files or directories, for OpenSSL. + +PH/19 When an Exim process that is running as root has to create an Exim log + file, it does so in a subprocess that runs as exim:exim so as to get the + ownership right at creation (otherwise, other Exim processes might see + the file with the wrong ownership). There was no test for failure of this + fork() call, which would lead to the process getting stuck as it waited + for a non-existent subprocess. Forks do occasionally fail when resources + run out. I reviewed all the other calls to fork(); they all seem to check + for failure. + +PH/20 When checking for unexpected SMTP input at connect time (before writing + the banner), Exim was not dealing correctly with a non-positive return + from the read() function. If the client had disconnected by this time, + the result was a log entry for a synchronization error with an empty + string after "input=" when read() returned zero. If read() returned -1 + (an event I could not check), uninitialized data bytes were printed. + There were reports of junk text (parts of files, etc) appearing after + "input=". + +PH/21 Added acl_not_smtp_mime to allow for MIME scanning for non-SMTP messages. + +PH/22 Added support for macro redefinition, and (re)definition in between + driver and ACL definitions. + +PH/23 The cyrus_sasl authenticator was expanding server_hostname, but then + forgetting to use the resulting value; it was using the unexpanded value. + +PH/24 The cyrus_sasl authenticator was advertising mechanisms for which it + hadn't been configured. The fix is from Juergen Kreileder, who + understands it better than I do: + + "Here's what I see happening with three configured cyrus_sasl + authenticators configured (plain, login, cram-md5): + + On startup auth_cyrus_sasl_init() gets called for each of these. + This means three calls to sasl_listmech() without a specified mech_list. + => SASL tests which mechs of all available mechs actually work + => three warnings about OTP not working + => the returned list contains: plain, login, cram-md5, digest-md5, ... + + With the patch, sasl_listmech() also gets called three times. But now + SASL's mech_list option is set to the server_mech specified in the the + authenticator. Or in other words, the answer from sasl_listmech() + gets limited to just the mech you're testing for (which is different + for each call.) + => the return list contains just 'plain' or 'login', 'cram-md5' or + nothing depending on the value of ob->server_mech. + + I've just tested the patch: Authentication still works fine, + unavailable mechs specified in the exim configuration are still + caught, and the auth.log warnings about OTP are gone." + +PH/25 When debugging is enabled, the contents of the command line are added + to the debugging output, even when log_selector=+arguments is not + specified. + +PH/26 Change scripts/os-type so that when "uname -s" returns just "GNU", the + answer is "GNU", and only if the return is "GNU/something" is the answer + "Linux". + +PH/27 $acl_verify_message is now set immediately after the failure of a + verification in an ACL, and so is available in subsequent modifiers. In + particular, the message can be preserved by coding like this: + + warn !verify = sender + set acl_m0 = $acl_verify_message + + Previously, $acl_verify_message was set only while expanding "message" + and "log_message" when a very denied access. + +PH/28 Modified OS/os.c-Linux with + + -#ifndef OS_LOAD_AVERAGE + +#if !defined(OS_LOAD_AVERAGE) && defined(__linux__) + + to make Exim compile on kfreebsd-gnu. (I'm totally confused about the + nomenclature these days.) + +PH/29 Installed patch from the Sieve maintainer that adds the options + sieve_useraddress and sieve_subaddress to the redirect router. + +PH/30 In these circumstances: + . Two addresses routed to the same list of hosts; + . First host does not offer TLS; + . First host accepts first address; + . First host gives temporary error to second address; + . Second host offers TLS and a TLS session is established; + . Second host accepts second address. + Exim incorrectly logged both deliveries with the TLS parameters (cipher + and peerdn, if requested) that were in fact used only for the second + address. + +PH/31 When doing a callout as part of verifying an address, Exim was not paying + attention to any local part prefix or suffix that was matched by the + router that accepted the address. It now behaves in the same way as it + does for delivery: the affixes are removed from the local part unless + rcpt_include_affixes is set on the transport. + +PH/32 Add the sender address, as F=<...>, to the log line when logging a + timeout during the DATA phase of an incoming message. + +PH/33 Sieve envelope tests were broken for match types other than :is. I have + applied a patch sanctioned by the Sieve maintainer. + +PH/34 Change 4.50/80 broke Exim in that it could no longer handle cases where + the uid or gid is negative. A case of a negative gid caused this to be + noticed. The fix allows for either to be negative. + +PH/35 ACL_WHERE_MIME is now declared unconditionally, to avoid too much code + clutter, but the tables that are indexed by ACL_WHERE_xxx values had been + overlooked. + +PH/36 The change PH/12 above was broken. Fixed it. + +PH/37 Exim used to check for duplicate addresses in the middle of routing, on + the grounds that routing the same address twice would always produce the + same answer. This might have been true once, but it is certainly no + longer true now. Routing a child address may depend on the previous + routing that produced that child. Some complicated redirection strategies + went wrong when messages had multiple recipients, and made Exim's + behaviour dependent on the order in which the addresses were given. + + I have moved the duplicate checking until after the routing is complete. + Exim scans the addresses that are assigned to local and remote + transports, and removes any duplicates. This means that more work will be + done, as duplicates will always all be routed, but duplicates are + presumably rare, so I don't expect this is of any significance. + + For deliveries to pipes, files, and autoreplies, the duplicate checking + still happens during the routing process, since they are not going to be + routed further. + +PH/38 Installed a patch from Ian Freislich, with the agreement of Tom Kistner. + It corrects a timeout issue with spamd. This is Ian's comment: "The + background is that sometimes spamd either never reads data from a + connection it has accepted, or it never writes response data. The exiscan + spam.[ch] uses a 3600 second timeout on spamd socket reads, further, it + blindly assumes that writes won't block so it may never time out." + +PH/39 Allow G after quota size as well as K and M. + +PH/40 The value set for $authenticated_id in an authenticator may not contain + binary zeroes or newlines because the value is written to log lines and + to spool files. There was no check on this. Now the value is run through + the string_printing() function so that such characters are converted to + printable escape sequences. + +PH/41 $message_linecount is a new variable that contains the total number of + lines in the message. Compare $body_linecount, which is the count for the + body only. + +PH/42 Exim no longer gives details of delivery errors for specific addresses in + bounce and delay warning messages, except in certain special cases, which + are as follows: + + (a) An SMTP error message from a remote host; + (b) A message specified in a :fail: redirection; + (c) A message specified in a "fail" command in a system filter; + (d) A message specified in a FAIL return from the queryprogram router; + (e) A message specified by the cannot_route_message router option. + + In these cases only, Exim does include the error details in bounce and + warning messages. There are also a few cases where bland messages such + as "unrouteable address" or "local delivery error" are given. + +PH/43 $value is now also set for the "else" part of a ${run expansion. + +PH/44 Applied patch from the Sieve maintainer: "The vacation draft is still + being worked on, but at least Exim now implements the latest version to + play with." + +PH/45 In a pipe transport, although a timeout while waiting for the pipe + process to complete was treated as a delivery failure, a timeout while + writing the message to the pipe was logged, but erroneously treated as a + successful delivery. Such timeouts include transport filter timeouts. For + consistency with the overall process timeout, these timeouts are now + treated as errors, giving rise to delivery failures by default. However, + there is now a new Boolean option for the pipe transport called + timeout_defer, which, if set TRUE, converts the failures into defers for + both kinds of timeout. A transport filter timeout is now identified in + the log output. + +PH/46 The "scripts/Configure-config.h" script calls "make" at one point. On + systems where "make" and "gmake" are different, calling "gmake" at top + level broke things. I've arranged for the value of $(MAKE) to be passed + from the Makefile to this script so that it can call the same version of + "make". + + +A note about Exim versions 4.44 and 4.50 +---------------------------------------- + +Exim 4.50 was meant to be the next release after 4.43. It contains a lot of +changes of various kinds. As a consequence, a big documentation update was +needed. This delayed the release for rather longer than seemed good, especially +in the light of a couple of (minor) security issues. Therefore, the changes +that fixed bugs were backported into 4.43, to create a 4.44 maintenance +release. So 4.44 and 4.50 are in effect two different branches that both start +from 4.43. + +I have left the 4.50 change log unchanged; it contains all the changes since +4.43.

Change 4.43/35 introduced a bug that caused file counts to be + incorrectly computed when quota_filecount was set in an appendfile + transport + + 2. Closing a stable door: arrange to panic-die if setitimer() ever fails. The + bug fixed in 4.43/37 would have been diagnosed quickly if this had been in + place. + + 3. Give more explanation in the error message when the command for a transport + filter fails to execute. + + 4. There are several places where Exim runs a non-Exim command in a + subprocess. The SIGUSR1 signal should be disabled for these processes. This + was being done only for the command run by the queryprogram router. It is + now done for all such subprocesses. The other cases are: ${run, transport + filters, and the commands run by the lmtp and pipe transports. + + 5. Some older OS have a limit of 256 on the maximum number of file + descriptors. Exim was using setrlimit() to set 1000 as a large value + unlikely to be exceeded. Change 4.43/17 caused a lot of logging on these + systems. I've change it so that if it can't get 1000, it tries for 256. + + 6. "control=submission" was allowed, but had no effect, in a DATA ACL. This + was an oversight, and furthermore, ever since the addition of extra + controls (e.g. 4.43/32), the checks on when to allow different forms of + "control" were broken. There should now be diagnostics for all cases when a + control that does not make sense is encountered. + + 7. $recipients is now available in the predata ACL (oversight). + + 8. Tidy the search cache before the fork to do a delivery from a message + received from the command line. Otherwise the child will trigger a lookup + failure and thereby defer the delivery if it tries to use (for example) a + cached ldap connection that the parent has called unbind on. + + 9. If verify=recipient was followed by verify=sender in a RCPT ACL, the value + of $address_data from the recipient verification was clobbered by the + sender verification. + +10. If FIXED_NEVER_USERS was defined, but empty, Exim was assuming the uid 0 + was its contents. (It was OK if the option was not defined at all.) + +11. A "Completed" log line is now written for messages that are removed from + the spool by the -Mrm option. + +12. $host_address is now set to the target address during the checking of + ignore_target_hosts. + +13. When checking ignore_target_hosts for an ipliteral router, no host name was + being passed; this would have caused $sender_host_name to have been used if + matching the list had actually called for a host name (not very likely, + since this list is usually IP addresses). A host name is now passed as + "[x.x.x.x]". + +14. Changed the calls that set up the SIGCHLD handler in the daemon to use the + code that specifies a non-restarting handler (typically sigaction() in + modern systems) in an attempt to fix a rare and obscure crash bug. + +15. Narrowed the window for a race in the daemon that could cause it to ignore + SIGCHLD signals. This is not a major problem, because they are used only to + wake it up if nothing else does. + +16. A malformed maildirsize file could cause Exim to calculate negative values + for the mailbox size or file count. Odd effects could occur as a result. + The maildirsize information is now recalculated if the size or filecount + end up negative. + +17. Added HAVE_SYS_STATVFS_H to the os.h file for Linux, as it has had this + support for a long time. Removed HAVE_SYS_VFS_H. + +18. Updated exipick to current release from John Jetmore. + +19. Allow an empty sender to be matched against a lookup in an address list. + Previously the only cases considered were a regular expression, or an + empty pattern. + +20. Exim went into a mad DNS lookup loop when doing a callout where the + host was specified on the transport, if the DNS lookup yielded more than + one IP address. + +21. The RFC2047 encoding function was originally intended for short strings + such as real names; it was not keeping to the 75-character limit for + encoded words that the RFC imposes. It now respects the limit, and + generates multiple encoded words if necessary. To be on the safe side, I + have increased the buffer size for the ${rfc2047: expansion operator from + 1024 to 2048 bytes. + +22. Failure to deliver a bounce message always caused it to be frozen, even if + there was an errors_to setting on the router. The errors_to setting is now + respected. + +23. If an IPv6 address is given for -bh or -bhc, it is now converted to the + canonical form (fully expanded) before being placed in + $sender_host_address. + +24. Updated eximstats to version 1.33 + +25. Include certificate and key file names in error message when GnuTLS fails + to set them up, because the GnuTLS error message doesn't include the name + of the failing file when there is a problem reading it. + +26. Expand error message when OpenSSL has problems setting up cert/key files. + As per change 25. + +27. Reset the locale to "C" after calling embedded Perl, in case it was changed + (this can affect the format of dates). + +28. exim_tidydb, when checking for the continued existence of a message for + which it has found a message-specific retry record, was not finding + messages that were in split spool directories. Consequently, it was + deleting retry records that should have stayed in existence. + +29. eximstats updated to version 1.35 + 1.34 - allow eximstats to parse syslog lines as well as mainlog lines + 1.35 - bugfix such that pie charts by volume are generated correctly + +30. The SPA authentication driver was not abandoning authentication and moving + on to the next authenticator when an expansion was forced to fail, + contradicting the general specification for all authenticators. Instead it + was generating a temporary error. It now behaves as specified. + +31. The default ordering of permitted cipher suites for GnuTLS was pessimal + (the order specifies the preference for clients). The order is now AES256, + AES128, 3DES, ARCFOUR128. + +31. Small patch to Sieve code - explicitly set From: when generating an + autoreply. + +32. Exim crashed if a remote delivery caused a very long error message to be + recorded - for instance if somebody sent an entire SpamAssassin report back + as a large number of 550 error lines. This bug was coincidentally fixed by + increasing the size of one of Exim's internal buffers (big_buffer) that + happened as part of the Exiscan merge. However, to be on the safe side, I + have made the code more robust (and fixed the comments that describe what + is going on). + +33. Some experimental protocols are using DNS PTR records for new purposes. The + keys for these records are domain names, not reversed IP addresses. The + dnsdb PTR lookup now tests whether its key is an IP address. If not, it + leaves it alone. Component reversal etc. now happens only for IP addresses. + CAN-2005-0021 + +34. The host_aton() function is supposed to be passed a string that is known + to be a valid IP address. However, in the case of IPv6 addresses, it was + not checking this. This is a hostage to fortune. Exim now panics and dies + if the condition is not met. A case was found where this could be provoked + from a dnsdb PTR lookup with an IPv6 address that had more than 8 + components; fortuitously, this particular loophole had already been fixed + by change 4.50/55 or 4.44/33 above. + + If there are any other similar loopholes, the new check in host_aton() + itself should stop them being exploited. The report I received stated that + data on the command line could provoke the exploit when Exim was running as + exim, but did not say which command line option was involved. All I could + find was the use of -be with a bad dnsdb PTR lookup, and in that case it is + running as the user. + CAN-2005-0021 + +35. There was a buffer overflow vulnerability in the SPA authentication code + (which came originally from the Samba project). I have added a test to the + spa_base64_to_bits() function which I hope fixes it. + CAN-2005-0022 + +36. The daemon start-up calls getloadavg() while still root for those OS that + need the first call to be done as root, but it missed one case: when + deliver_queue_load_max is set with deliver_drop_privilege. This is + necessary for the benefit of the queue runner, because there is no re-exec + when deliver_drop_privilege is set. + +37. Caching of lookup data for "hosts =" ACL conditions, when a named host list + was in use, was not putting the data itself into the right store pool; + consequently, it could be overwritten for a subsequent message in the same + SMTP connection. (Fix 4.40/11 dealt with the non-cache case, but overlooked + the caching.) + +38. Sometimes the final signoff response after QUIT could fail to get + transmitted in the non-TLS case. Testing !tls_active instead of tls_active + < 0 before doing a fflush(). This bug looks as though it goes back to the + introduction of TLS in release 3.20, but "sometimes" must have been rare + because the tests only now provoked it. + Exim version 4.43 -----------------
