options, and new features, see the NewStuff file next to this ChangeLog.
+Exim version 4.93
+-----------------
+
+JH/01 OpenSSL: With debug enabled output keying information sufficient, server
+ side, to decode a TLS 1.3 packet capture.
+
+JH/02 OpenSSL: Suppress the sending of (stateful) TLS1.3 session tickets.
+ Previously the default library behaviour applied, sending two, each in
+ its own TCP segment.
+
+JH/03 Debug output for ACL now gives the config file name and line number for
+ each verb.
+
+JH/04 The default received_header_text now uses the RFC 8314 tls cipher clause.
+
+JH/05 DKIM: ensure that dkim_domain elements are lowercased before use.
+
+JH/06 Fix buggy handling of autoreply bounce_return_size_limit, and a possible
+ buffer overrun for (non-chunking) other transports.
+
+JH/07 GnuTLS: Our use of late (post-handshake) certificate verification, under
+ TLS1.3, means that a server rejecting a client certificate is not visible
+ to the client until the first read of encrypted data (typically the
+ response to EHLO). Add detection for that case and treat it as a failed
+ TLS connection attempt, so that the normal retry-in-clear can work (if
+ suitably configured).
+
+JB/01 Bug 2375: fix expansions of 822 addresses having comments in local-part
+ and/or domain. Found and fixed by Jason Betts.
+
+JH/08 Add hardening against SRV & TLSA lookups the hit CNAMEs (a nonvalid
+ configuration). If a CNAME target was not a wellformed name pattern, a
+ crash could result.
+
+JH/09 Logging: Fix initial listening-on line for multiple ports for an IP when
+ the OS reports them interleaved with other addresses.
+
+JH/10 OpenSSL: Fix aggregation of messages. Previously, when PIPELINING was
+ used both for input and for a verify callout, both encrypted, SMTP
+ responses being sent by the server could be lost. This resulted in
+ dropped connections and sometimes bounces generated by a peer sending
+ to this system.
+
+JH/11 Harden plaintext authenticator against a badly misconfigured client-send
+ string. Previously it was possible to cause undefined behaviour in a
+ library routine (usually a crash). Found by "zerons".
+
+JH/12 Bug 2384: fix "-bP smtp_receive_timeout". Previously it returned no
+ output.
+
+JH/13 Bug 2386: Fix builds with Dane under LibreSSL 2.9.0 onward. Some old
+ API was removed, so update to use the newer ones.
+
+JH/14 Bug 1891: Close the log file if receiving a non-smtp message, without
+ any timeout set, is taking a long time. Previously we would hang on to a
+ rotated logfile "forever" if the input was arriving with long gaps
+ (a previous attempt to fix addressed lack, for a long time, of initial
+ input).
+
+HS/01 Bug 2390: Use message_id for tempfile creation to avoid races in a
+ shared (NFS) environment. The length of the tempfile name is now
+ 4 + 16 ("hdr.$message_exim_id") which might break on file
+ systems which restrict the file name length to lower values.
+ (It was "hdr.$pid".)
+
+HS/02 Bug 2390: Use message_id for tempfile creation to avoid races in a
+ shared (NFS) environment.
+
+HS/03 Bug 2392: exigrep does case sensitive *option* processing (as it
+ did for all versions <4.90). Notably -M, -m, --invert, -I may be
+ affected.
+
+JH/15 Use unsigned when creating bitmasks in macros, to avoid build errors
+ on some platforms for bit 31.
+
+JH/16 GnuTLS: rework ciphersuite strings under recent library versions. Thanks
+ to changes apparently associated with TLS1.3 handling some of the APIs
+ previously used were either nonfunctional or inappropriate. Strings
+ like TLS1.3:ECDHE_SECP256R1__RSA_PSS_RSAE_SHA256__AES_256_GCM__AEAD:256
+ and TLS1.2:ECDHE_SECP256R1__RSA_SHA256__AES_128_CBC__SHA256:128 replace
+ the previous TLS1.2:ECDHE_RSA_AES_256_GCM_SHA384:256 .
+ This affects log line X= elements, the $tls_{in,out}_cipher variables,
+ and the use of specific cipher names in the encrypted= ACL condition.
+
+JH/17 OpenSSL: the default openssl_options now disables ssl_v3.
+
+JH/18 GnuTLS: fix $tls_out_ocsp under hosts_request_ocsp. Previously the
+ verification result was not updated unless hosts_require_ocsp applied.
+
+JH/19 Bug 2398: fix listing of a named-queue. Previously, even with the option
+ queue_list_requires_admin set to false, non-admin users were denied the
+ facility.
+
+JH/20 Bug 2389: fix server advertising of usable certificates, under GnuTLS in
+ directory-of-certs mode. Previously they were advertised despite the
+ documentation.
+
+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
+ not do so.
+
+JH/22 The smtp transport option "hosts_try_dane" now enables all hosts by
+ default. If built with the facility, DANE will be used. The facility
+ SUPPORT_DANE is now enabled in the prototype build Makefile "EDITME".
+
+JH/23 The build default is now for TLS to be included; the SUPPORT_TLS define
+ is replaced with DISABLE_TLS. Either USE_GNUTLS or (the new) USE_OPENSSL
+ must be defined and you must still, unless you define DISABLE_TLS, manage
+ the the include-dir and library-file requirements that go with that
+ choice. Non-TLS builds are still supported.
+
+JH/24 Fix duplicated logging of peer name/address, on a transport connection-
+ reject under TFO.
+
+JH/25 The smtp transport option "hosts_try_fastopen" now enables all hosts by
+ default. If the platform supports and has the facility enabled, it will
+ be requested on all coneections.
+
+JH/26 The PIPE_CONNECT facility is promoted from experimental status and is now
+ controlled by the build-time option SUPPORT_PIPE_CONNECT.
+
+PP/01 Unbreak heimdal_gssapi, broken in 4.92.
+
+JH/27 Bug 2404: Use the main-section configuration option "dsn_from" for
+ success-DSN messages. Previously the From: header was always the default
+ one for these; the option was ignored.
+
+JH/28 Fix the timeout on smtp response to apply to the whole response.
+ Previously it was reset for every read, so a teergrubing peer sending
+ single bytes within the time limit could extend the connection for a
+ long time. Credit to Qualsys Security Advisory Team for the discovery.
+
+JH/29 Fix DSN Final-Recipient: field. Previously it was the post-routing
+ delivery address, which leaked information of the results of local
+ forwarding. Change to the original envelope recipient address, per
+ standards.
+
+JH/30 Bug 2411: Fix DSN generation when RFC 3461 failure notification is
+ requested. Previously not bounce was generated and a log entry of
+ error ignored was made.
+
+JH/31 Avoid re-expansion in ${sort } expansion. (CVE-2019-13917)
+
+JH/32 Introduce a general tainting mechanism for values read from the input
+ channel, and values derived from them. Refuse to expand any tainted
+ values, to catch one form of exploit.
+
+JH/33 Bug 2413: Fix dkim_strict option. Previously the expansion result
+ was unused and the unexpanded text used for the test. Found and
+ fixed by Ruben Jenster.
+
+JH/34 Fix crash after TLS shutdown. When the TCP/SMTP channel was left open,
+ an attempt to use a TLS library read routine dereffed a nul pointer,
+ causing a segfault.
+
+JH/35 Bug 2409: filter out-of-spec chars from callout response before using
+ them in our smtp response.
+
+JH/36 Have the general router option retry_use_local_part default to true when
+ any of the restrictive preconditions are set (to anything). Previously it
+ was only for check_local user. The change removes one item of manual
+ configuration which is required for proper retries when a remote router
+ handles a subset of addresses for a domain.
+
+JH/37 Appendfile: when evaluating quota use (non-quota_size_regex) take the file
+ link count into consideration.
+
+HS/04 Fix handling of very log lines in -H files. If a -<key> <value> line
+ caused the extension of big_buffer, the following lines were ignored.
+
+JH/38 Bug 1395: Teach the DNS negative-cache about TTL value from the SOA in
+ accordance with RFC 2308. Previously there was no expiry, so a longlived
+ receive process (eg. due to ACL delays) versus a short SOA value could
+ surprise.
+
+HS/05 Handle trailing backslash gracefully. (CVE-2019-15846)
+
+JH/39 Promote DMARC support to mainline.
+
+
Exim version 4.92
-----------------
explicitly pass a context around. This enables future use of TLS for
connections to service-daemons (eg. malware scanning) while a client smtp
connection is using TLS; with cutthrough connections this is quite likely.
-JH/15 Support for Rspamd, as a variant of the "spam" ACL condition used for
- connecting to a SpamAssassain "spamd" daemon for content scanning, is
- removed. Following changes to the protocol used for communication with
- Rspamd it was apparently inoperable.
JH/16 Fix ARC verification to do AS checks in reverse order.
-JH/16 Support a "tls" option on the ${readsocket } expansion item.
+
+JH/17 Support a "tls" option on the ${readsocket } expansion item.
+
+JH/18 Bug 2287: Fix the protocol name (eg utf8esmtp) for multiple messages
+ using the SMTPUTF8 option on their MAIL FROM commands, in one connection.
+ Previously the "utf8" would be re-prepended for every additional message.
+
+JH/19 Reject MAIL FROM commands with SMTPUTF8 when the facility was not advertised.
+ Previously thery were accepted, resulting in issues when attempting to
+ forward messages to a non-supporting MTA.
+
+PP/02 Let -n work with printing macros too, not just options.
+
+JH/20 Bug 2296: Fix cutthrough for >1 address redirection. Previously only
+ one parent address was copied, and bogus data was used at delivery-logging
+ time. Either a crash (after delivery) or bogus log data could result.
+ Discovery and analysis by Tim Stewart.
+
+PP/03 Make ${utf8clean:} expansion operator detect incomplete final character.
+ Previously if the string ended mid-character, we did not insert the
+ promised '?' replacement.
+
+PP/04 Documentation: current string operators work on bytes, not codepoints.
+
+JH/21 Change as many as possible of the global flags into one-bit bitfields; these
+ should pack well giving a smaller memory footprint so better caching and
+ therefore performance. Group the declarations where this can't be done so
+ that the byte-sized flag variables are not interspersed among pointer
+ variables, giving a better chance of good packing by the compiler.
+
+JH/22 Bug 1896: Fix the envelope from for DMARC forensic reports to be possibly
+ non-null, to avoid issues with sites running BATV. Previously reports were
+ sent with an empty envelope sender so looked like bounces.
+
+JH/23 Bug 2318: Fix the noerror command within filters. It wasn't working.
+ The ignore_error flag wasn't being returned from the filter subprocess so
+ was not set for later routers. Investigation and fix by Matthias Kurz.
+
+JH/24 Bug 2310: Raise a msg:fail:internal event for each undelivered recipient,
+ and a msg:complete for the whole, when a message is manually removed using
+ -Mrm. Developement by Matthias Kurz, hacked on by JH.
+
+JH/25 Avoid fixed-size buffers for pathnames in DB access. This required using
+ a "Gnu special" function, asprintf() in the DB utility binary builds; I
+ hope that is portable enough.
+
+JH/26 Bug 2311: Fix DANE-TA verification under GnuTLS. Previously it was also
+ requiring a known-CA anchor certificate; make it now rely entirely on the
+ TLSA as an anchor. Checking the name on the leaf cert against the name
+ on the A-record for the host is still done for TA (but not for EE mode).
+
+JH/27 Fix logging of proxy address. Previously, a pointless "PRX=[]:0" would be
+ included in delivery lines for non-proxied connections, when compiled with
+ SUPPORT_SOCKS and running with proxy logging enabled.
+
+JH/28 Bug 2314: Fire msg:fail:delivery event even when error is being ignored.
+ Developement by Matthias Kurz, tweaked by JH. While in that bit of code,
+ move the existing event to fire before the normal logging of message
+ failure so that custom logging is bracketed by normal logging.
+
+JH/29 Bug 2322: A "fail" command in a non-system filter (file) now fires the
+ msg:fail:internal event. Developement by Matthias Kurz.
+
+JH/30 Bug 2329: Increase buffer size used for dns lookup from 2k, which was
+ far too small for todays use of crypto signatures stored there. Go all
+ the way to the max DNS message size of 64kB, even though this might be
+ overmuch for IOT constrained device use.
+
+JH/31 Fix a bad use of a copy function, which could be used to pointlessly
+ copy a string over itself. The library routine is documented as not
+ supporting overlapping copies, and on MacOS it actually raised a SIGABRT.
+
+JH/32 For main options check_spool_space and check_inode_space, where the
+ platform supports 64b integers, support more than the previous 2^31 kB
+ (i.e. more than 2 TB). Accept E, P and T multipliers in addition to
+ the previous G, M, k.
+
+JH/33 Bug 2338: Fix the cyrus-sasl authenticator to fill in the
+ $authenticated_fail_id variable on authentication failure. Previously
+ it was unset.
+
+JH/34 Increase RSA keysize of autogen selfsign cert from 1024 to 2048. RHEL 8.0
+ OpenSSL didn't want to use such a weak key. Do for GnuTLS also, and for
+ more-modern GnuTLS move from GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_LOW to
+ GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_MEDIUM.
+
+JH/35 OpenSSL: fail the handshake when SNI processing hits a problem, server
+ side. Previously we would continue as if no SNI had been received.
+
+JH/36 Harden the handling of string-lists. When a list consisted of a sole
+ "<" character, which should be a list-separator specification, we walked
+ off past the nul-terimation.
+
+JH/37 Bug 2341: Send "message delayed" warning MDNs (restricted to external
+ causes) even when the retry time is not yet met. Previously they were
+ not, meaning that when (say) an account was over-quota and temp-rejecting,
+ and multiple senders' messages were queued, only one sender would get
+ notified on each configured delay_warning cycle.
+
+JH/38 Bug 2351: Log failures to extract envelope addresses from message headers.
+
+JH/39 OpenSSL: clear the error stack after an SSL_accept(). With anon-auth
+ cipher-suites, an error can be left on the stack even for a succeeding
+ accept; this results in impossible error messages when a later operation
+ actually does fail.
+
+AM/01 Bug 2359: GnuTLS: repeat lowlevel read and write operations while they
+ return error codes indicating retry. Under TLS1.3 this becomes required.
+
+JH/40 Fix the feature-cache refresh for EXPERIMENTAL_PIPE_CONNECT. Previously
+ it only wrote the new authenticators, resulting in a lack of tracking of
+ peer changes of ESMTP extensions until the next cache flush.
+
+JH/41 Fix the loop reading a message header line to check for integer overflow,
+ and more-often against header_maxsize. Previously a crafted message could
+ induce a crash of the recive process; now the message is cleanly rejected.
+
+JH/42 Bug 2366: Fix the behaviour of the dkim_verify_signers option. It had
+ been totally disabled for all of 4.91. Discovery and fix by "Mad Alex".
Exim version 4.91
line, the header hash was calculated to an incorrect value thanks to
the (relaxed) space the fold became.
-HS/02 Fix Bug 2130: large writes from the transport subprocess where chunked
+HS/02 Fix Bug 2130: large writes from the transport subprocess were chunked
and confused the parent.
