-------------------------------------------
+This document describes *changes* to previous versions, that might
+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 4.89
+-------------------
+
+JH/01 Bug 1922: Support IDNA2008. This has slightly different conversion rules
+ than -2003 did; needs libidn2 in addition to linidn.
+
+JH/02 The path option on a pipe transport is now expanded before use.
+
+PP/01 GitHub PR 50: Do not call ldap_start_tls_s on ldapi:// connections.
+ Patch provided by "Björn", documentation fix added too.
+
Exim version 4.88
-----------------
+
JH/01 Use SIZE on MAIL FROM in a cutthrough connection, if the destination
supports it and a size is available (ie. the sending peer gave us one).
non-noisy when a race steals the message being considered.
JH/05 If main configuration option tls_certificate is unset, generate a
- selfsigned certificate for inbound TLS connections.
+ self-signed certificate for inbound TLS connections.
JH/06 Bug 165: hide more cases of password exposure - this time in expansions
in rewrites and routers.
JH/24 Bug 1832: Log EHLO response on getting conn-close response for HELO.
-JH/25 Decoding ACL controls is now done using a binary search; the sourcecode
+JH/25 Decoding ACL controls is now done using a binary search; the source code
takes up less space and should be simpler to maintain. Merge the ACL
condition decode tables also, with similar effect.
delivered, so not attempt the (identical) child. As a result mail would
be lost.
+JH/27 Fix a possible security hole, wherein a process operating with the Exim
+ UID can gain a root shell. Credit to http://www.halfdog.net/ for
+ discovery and writeup. Ubuntu bug 1580454; no bug raised against Exim
+ itself :(
+
+JH/28 Enable {spool,log} filesystem space and inode checks as default.
+ Main config options check_{log,spool}_{inodes,space} are now
+ 100 inodes, 10MB unless set otherwise in the configuration.
+
+JH/29 Fix the connection_reject log selector to apply to the connect ACL.
+ Previously it only applied to the main-section connection policy
+ options.
+
+JH/30 Bug 1897: fix callouts connection fallback from TLS to cleartext.
+
+PP/01 Changed default Diffie-Hellman parameters to be Exim-specific, created
+ by me. Added RFC7919 DH primes as an alternative.
+
+PP/02 Unbreak build via pkg-config with new hash support when crypto headers
+ are not in the system include path.
+
+JH/31 Fix longstanding bug with aborted TLS server connection handling. Under
+ GnuTLS, when a session startup failed (eg because the client disconnected)
+ Exim did stdio operations after fclose. This was exposed by a recent
+ change which nulled out the file handle after the fclose.
+
+JH/32 Bug 1909: Fix OCSP proof verification for cases where the proof is
+ signed directly by the cert-signing cert, rather than an intermediate
+ OCSP-signing cert. This is the model used by LetsEncrypt.
+
+JH/33 Bug 1914: Ensure socket is nonblocking before draining after SMTP QUIT.
+
+HS/01 Fix leak in verify callout under GnuTLS, about 3MB per recipient on
+ an incoming connection.
+
+HS/02 Bug 1802: Do not half-close the connection after sending a request
+ to rspamd.
+
+HS/03 Use "auto" as the default EC curve parameter. For OpenSSL < 1.0.2
+ fallback to "prime256v1".
+
+JH/34 SECURITY: Use proper copy of DATA command in error message.
+ Could leak key material. Remotely exploitable. CVE-2016-9963.
+
Exim version 4.87
-----------------
+
JH/01 Bug 1664: Disable OCSP for GnuTLS library versions at/before 3.3.16
and 3.4.4 - once the server is enabled to respond to an OCSP request
it does even when not requested, resulting in a stapling non-aware
extraction. Accept either.

Exim version 4.86
-----------------
+
JH/01 Bug 1545: The smtp transport option "retry_include_ip_address" is now
expanded.
Exim version 4.85
-----------------
+
TL/01 When running the test suite, the README says that variables such as
no_msglog_check are global and can be placed anywhere in a specific
test's script, however it was observed that placement needed to be near
