buffer was in use at the time. Change to a compile-time increase in the
buffer size, when this authenticator is compiled into exim.
-JH/22 Taint checking: move to a hybrid approach for checking. Previously, one
- of two ways was used, depending on a build-time flag. The fast method
- relied on assumptions about the OS and libc malloc, which were known to
- not hold for the BSD-derived platforms, and discovered to not hold for
- 32-bit Linux either. In fact the glibc documentation describes cases
- where these assumptions do not hold. The new implementation tests for
- the situation arising and actively switches over from fast to safe mode.
+JH/22 Taint-checking: move to safe-mode taint checking on all platforms. The
+ previous fast-mode was untenable in the face of glibs using mmap to
+ support larger malloc requests.
PP/01 Update the openssl_options possible values through OpenSSL 1.1.1c.
New values supported, if defined on system where compiled:
allow_no_dhe_kex, cryptopro_tlsext_bug, enable_middlebox_compat,
no_anti_replay, no_encrypt_then_mac, prioritize_chacha, tlsext_padding
+JH/23 Performance improvement in the initial phase of a two-pass queue run. By
+ running a limited number of proceses in parallel, a benefit is gained. The
+ amount varies with the platform hardware and load. The use of the option
+ queue_run_in_order means we cannot do this, as ordering becomes
+ indeterminate.
+
+JH/24 Bug 2524: fix the cyrus_sasl auth driver gssapi usage. A previous fix
+ had introduced a string-copy (for ensuring NUL-termination) which was not
+ appropriate for that case, which can include embedded NUL bytes in the
+ block of data. Investigation showed the copy to actually be needless, the
+ data being length-specified.
+
+JH/25 Fix use of concurrent TLS connections under GnuTLS. When a callout was
+ done during a receiving connection, and both used TLS, global info was
+ used rather than per-connection info for tracking the state of data
+ queued for transmission. This could result in a connection hang.
+
+JH/26 Fix use of the SIZE parameter on MAIL commands, on continued connections.
+ Previously, when delivering serveral messages down a single connection
+ 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.
