For new options, and new features, see the NewStuff file next to this ChangeLog. +Exim version 4.98 +----------------- + +JH/01 Support list of dkim results in the dkim_status ACL condition, making + it more usable in the data ACL. + +JH/02 Bug 3040: Handle error on close of the spool data file during reception. + Previously This was only logged, on the assumption that errors would be + seen for a previous fflush(). However, a fuse filesystem has been + reported as showing this an error for the fclose(). The spool is now in + an uncertain state, and we have logged and responded acceptance. Change + this to respond with a temp-reject, wipe spoolfiles, and log the error + detail. + +JH/03 Bug 3030: Fix handling of DNS servfail respons for DANE TLSA. When hit + during a recipient verify callout, a QUIT command was attempted on the + now-closed callout channel, causing a paniclog entry. + +JH/04 Bug 3039: Fix handling of of an empty log_reject_target, with + a connection_reject log_selector, under tls_on_connect. Previously + with this combination, when the connect ACL rejected, a spurious + paniclog entry was made. + +JH/05 Fix TLS resumption for TLS-on-connect. This was broken by the advent + of loadbalancer-detection for resumption, in 4.96 - which tries to + use the EHLO response. SMTPS does not have one at the time it is starting + TLS. Change the default for the smtp transport host_name_extract option + to be a static string, for TLS-on-connect cases; meaning that resumption + will always be attempted (unless deliberately overriden). + +JH/06 Bug 3054: Fix dnsdb lookup for a TXT record with multiple chunks, with a + chunk-separator specification. This was broken by hardening introduced + for Bug 3031. + +JH/07 Bug 3050: Fix -bp for old message_id format spoolfiles. Previously it + included the -H with the id; this also messed up exiqgrep. + +JH/08 Bug 3056: Tighten up parsing of DKIM DNS records. Previously, whitespace + was not properly skipped and empty elements would cause mis-parsing. + Tighten parsing of DKIM header records. Previously, all but lowercase + alpha chars would be ignored in potential tag names. + +JH/09 Bug 3057: Add heuristic for spotting mistyped IPv6 addresses in lists + being searched. Previously we only had one for IPv4 addresses. Per the + documentation, the error results by default in a no-match result for the + list. It is logged if the unknown_in_list log_selector is used. + +JH/10 Bug 3058: Ensure that a failing expansion in a router "set" option defers + the routing operation. Previously it would silently stop routing the + message. + +JH/11 Bug 3046: Fix queue-runs. Previously, the arrivel of a notification or + info-request event close in time to a scheduled run timer could result in + the latter being missed, and no further queue scheduled runs being + initiated. This ouwld be more likely on high-load systems. + +JH/12 Refuse to accept a line "dot, LF" as end-of-DATA unless operating in + LF-only mode (as detected from the first header line). Previously we did + accept that in (normal) CRLF mode; this has been raised as a possible + attack scenario (under the name "smtp smuggling"). + +JH/13 Add an fdatasync call for the received message data file in spool, before + loggging reception and sending the SMTP ack. Previously we only flushed + the stdio buffer so there was still the possibility of a disk error. + +JH/14 Bug 3061: Avoid a split log line when trying to rewrite a malformed + address. Previously, for the last address in a header line (commonly + there is only one) the terminating newline was part of the logged + information. + +JH/15 Bug 3061: Ensure a log line is written for a malformed address in a + header, when parsing for address-qualification. Previously one was only + written if there were rewrite rules. + +JH/16 Two-phase queue runs are now reported in the daemon startup log line and + in exiwhat output. + +JH/17 Bug 3064: Fix combination of "-q -R ". Introduction of + the multiple-queue-runners facility for 4.97 broke this, giving only a + one-time run of the queue. + +JH/18 Bug 3068: Log a warning for use of deprecated syntax in query-style + lookups. + +JH/19 Fix TLS startup. When the last expansion done before the initiation of a + TLS session resulted in a forced-fail, a misleading error was logged for + the expansino of tls_certificates. This would affect the common case of + that option being set (main-section options) but not having any variable + parts. It could also potentially affect tls_privatekeys. The underlyding + coding errors go back to 4.90 but were only exposed in 4.97. + +JH/20 Bug 3047: A recent (somewhere between 10.34 and 10.42) version of the + pcre2 library starting allocating 20kB rather than 112 bytes per match + call, which broke the 2GB total limitation on Exim's memory management + when a user had over 104207 messages stored and the appendfile + maildir_quota_directory_regex option is in use. Release the allocated + memory every thosand files to avoid this. + The same issue arises with the ACL regex condition, which is applied + to every line of a received message. + +JH/21 Bug 3059: Fix crash in smtp transport. When running for a message for + which all recipients had been handled (itself an issue) a null-pointer + deref was done on trying to write a retry record. Fix that by counting + the outstanding recipients before trying to transmit the message. + The situation arose for a second MX try within a transport run, when the + first had perm-rejected a recipient (the only one for the connection, in + the case seen) during pipelining, and then closed the TCP connection. + The transport classified that as an I/O error, leaving the message + outstanding but having marked up the recipient as dealt-with. It then + tried another MX because of the I/O error. Fix this by converting the + message-level status to ok if there was a close but all recipients were + dealt with. Thanks to Wolfgand Breyha for debug runs. + +JH/22 The ESMTP_LIMITS facility (RFC 9422) is promoted from experimental status + and is now controlled by the build-time option DISABLE_ESMTP_LIMITS. + +JH/23 Bug 3066: Avoid leaking lookup database credentials to log. + +JH/24 Bug 3081: Fix a delivery process crash. When the router "errors_to" + option specified a fixed address, later rewriting on that address would + trip on the configuration data being readonly. Instead of modifying + in-place, copy data. Found and fixed by Peter Benie. + +JH/25 Bug 3079: Fix crash in dbmnz. When a key was present for zero-length + data a null pointer was followed. Find and testcase by Sebastian Bugge. + +JH/26 Fix encoding for an AUTH parameter on a MAIL FROM command. Previously + decimal 127 chars were not encoded, and lowercase hex was used for + encoded values. Outstanding since at least 1999. + +JH/27 Fix crash in logging. When a message with a large number of recipients + had been received, and logging of recipients is enabled, the buffer used + for logging could reach limit. A read using a null pointer would then + be done, resulting in a crash of the receiving process before an SMTP + ACK for the message was returned to the sending system. Duplicate + messages were created as a result. + Find and debug help by Mateusz Krawczyk + +JH/28 Bug 3086: Fix exinext for ipv6. Change the format of keys in the retry + DB, wrapping transport record bare-ip "host names" and ipv6 + "host addresses" in square-brackets. This makes the parsing that + exinext does more reliable. + +JH/29 Bug 3087: Fix SRS encode. A zero-length quoted element in the local-part + would cause a crash. + +JH/30 Bug 3029: Avoid feeding Resent-From: to DMARC. + +JH/31 Bug 3027: For -bh / -bhc tests change to using the compressed form of + ipv6 addresses for the sender.
