Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
+Exim version 4.74
+-----------------
+
+TF/01 Failure to get a lock on a hints database can have serious
+ consequences so log it to the panic log.
+
+TF/02 Log LMTP confirmation messages in the same way as SMTP,
+ controlled using the smtp_confirmation log selector.
+
+TF/03 Include the error message when we fail to unlink a spool file.
+
+DW/01 Bugzilla 139: Support dynamically loaded lookups as modules.
+ With thanks to Steve Haslam, Johannes Berg & Serge Demonchaux
+ for maintaining out-of-tree patches for some time.
+
+PP/01 Bugzilla 139: Documentation and portability issues.
+ Avoid GNU Makefile-isms, let Exim continue to build on BSD.
+ Handle per-OS dynamic-module compilation flags.
+
+PP/02 Let /dev/null have normal permissions.
+ The 4.73 fixes were a little too stringent and complained about the
+ permissions on /dev/null. Exempt it from some checks.
+ Reported by Andreas M. Kirchwitz.
+
+PP/03 Report version information for many libraries, including
+ Exim version information for dynamically loaded libraries. Created
+ version.h, now support a version extension string for distributors
+ who patch heavily. Dynamic module ABI change.
+
+PP/04 CVE-2011-0017 - check return value of setuid/setgid. This is a
+ privilege escalation vulnerability whereby the Exim run-time user
+ can cause root to append content of the attacker's choosing to
+ arbitrary files.
+
+PP/05 Bugzilla 1041: merged DCC maintainer's fixes for return code.
+ (Wolfgang Breyha)
+
+PP/06 Bugzilla 1071: fix delivery logging with untrusted macros.
+ If dropping privileges for untrusted macros, we disabled normal logging
+ on the basis that it would fail; for the Exim run-time user, this is not
+ the case, and it resulted in successful deliveries going unlogged.
+ Fixed. Reported by Andreas Metzler.
+
+
+Exim version 4.73
+-----------------
+
+PP/01 Date: & Message-Id: revert to normally being appended to a message,
+ only prepend for the Resent-* case. Fixes regression introduced in
+ Exim 4.70 by NM/22 for Bugzilla 607.
+
+PP/02 Include check_rfc2047_length in configure.default because we're seeing
+ increasing numbers of administrators be bitten by this.
+
+JJ/01 Added DISABLE_DKIM and comment to src/EDITME
+
+PP/03 Bugzilla 994: added openssl_options main configuration option.
+
+PP/04 Bugzilla 995: provide better SSL diagnostics on failed reads.
+
+PP/05 Bugzilla 834: provide a permit_coredump option for pipe transports.
+
+PP/06 Adjust NTLM authentication to handle SASL Initial Response.
+
+PP/07 If TLS negotiated an anonymous cipher, we could end up with SSL but
+ without a peer certificate, leading to a segfault because of an
+ assumption that peers always have certificates. Be a little more
+ paranoid. Problem reported by Martin Tscholak.
+
+PP/08 Bugzilla 926: switch ClamAV to use the new zINSTREAM API for content
+ filtering; old API available if built with WITH_OLD_CLAMAV_STREAM=yes
+ NB: ClamAV planning to remove STREAM in "middle of 2010".
+ CL also introduces -bmalware, various -d+acl logging additions and
+ more caution in buffer sizes.
+
+PP/09 Implemented reverse_ip expansion operator.
+
+PP/10 Bugzilla 937: provide a "debug" ACL control.
+
+PP/11 Bugzilla 922: Documentation dusting, patch provided by John Horne.
+
+PP/12 Bugzilla 973: Implement --version.
+
+PP/13 Bugzilla 752: Refuse to build/run if Exim user is root/0.
+
+PP/14 Build without WITH_CONTENT_SCAN. Path from Andreas Metzler.
+
+PP/15 Bugzilla 816: support multiple condition rules on Routers.
+
+PP/16 Add bool_lax{} expansion operator and use that for combining multiple
+ condition rules, instead of bool{}. Make both bool{} and bool_lax{}
+ ignore trailing whitespace.
+
+JJ/02 prevent non-panic DKIM error from being sent to paniclog
+
+JJ/03 added tcp_wrappers_daemon_name to allow host entries other than
+ "exim" to be used
+
+PP/17 Fix malware regression for cmdline scanner introduced in PP/08.
+ Notification from Dr Andrew Aitchison.
+
+PP/18 Change ClamAV response parsing to be more robust and to handle ClamAV's
+ ExtendedDetectionInfo response format.
+ Notification from John Horne.
+
+PP/19 OpenSSL 1.0.0a compatibility const-ness change, should be backwards
+ compatible.
+
+PP/20 Added a CONTRIBUTING file. Fixed the documentation build to use http:
+ XSL and documented dependency on system catalogs, with examples of how
+ it normally works.
+
+DW/21 Added Valgrind hooks in store.c to help it capture out-of-bounds store
+ access.
+
+DW/22 Bugzilla 1044: CVE-2010-4345 - partial fix: restrict default behaviour
+ of CONFIGURE_OWNER and CONFIGURE_GROUP options to no longer allow a
+ configuration file which is writeable by the Exim user or group.
+
+DW/23 Bugzilla 1044: CVE-2010-4345 - part two: extend checks for writeability
+ of configuration files to cover files specified with the -C option if
+ they are going to be used with root privileges, not just the default
+ configuration file.
+
+DW/24 Bugzilla 1044: CVE-2010-4345 - part three: remove ALT_CONFIG_ROOT_ONLY
+ option (effectively making it always true).
+
+DW/25 Add TRUSTED_CONFIG_PREFIX_FILE option to allow alternative configuration
+ files to be used while preserving root privileges.
+
+DW/26 Set FD_CLOEXEC on SMTP sockets after forking in the daemon, to ensure
+ that rogue child processes cannot use them.
+
+PP/27 Bugzilla 1047: change the default for system_filter_user to be the Exim
+ run-time user, instead of root.
+
+PP/28 Add WHITELIST_D_MACROS option to let some macros be overriden by the
+ Exim run-time user without dropping privileges.
+
+DW/29 Remove use of va_copy() which breaks pre-C99 systems. Duplicate the
+ result string, instead of calling string_vformat() twice with the same
+ arguments.
+
+DW/30 Allow TRUSTED_CONFIG_PREFIX_FILE only for Exim or CONFIGURE_OWNER, not
+ for other users. Others should always drop root privileges if they use
+ -C on the command line, even for a whitelisted configure file.
+
+DW/31 Turn TRUSTED_CONFIG_PREFIX_FILE into TRUSTED_CONFIG_FILE. No prefixes.
+

+
+NM/39 Bugzilla 911: Fixed MakeLinks build script.
+
+
+Exim version 4.69
+-----------------
+
+TK/01 Add preliminary DKIM support. Currently requires a forked version of
+ ALT-N's libdkim that I have put here:
+ http://duncanthrax.net/exim-experimental/
+
+ Note to Michael Haardt: I had to rename some vars in sieve.c. They
+ were called 'true' and it seems that C99 defines that as a reserved
+ keyword to be used with 'bool' variable types. That means you could
+ not include C99-style headers which use bools without triggering
+ build errors in sieve.c.
+
+NM/01 Bugzilla 592: --help option is handled incorrectly if exim is invoked
+ as mailq or other aliases. Changed the --help handling significantly
+ to do whats expected. exim_usage() emits usage/help information.
+
+SC/01 Added the -bylocaldomain option to eximstats.
+
+NM/02 Bugzilla 619: Defended against bad data coming back from gethostbyaddr.
+
+NM/03 Bugzilla 613: Documentation fix for acl_not_smtp.
+
+NM/04 Bugzilla 628: PCRE update to 7.4 (work done by John Hall).
+
+
+Exim version 4.68
+-----------------
+
+PH/01 Another patch from the Sieve maintainer.
+
+PH/02 When an IPv6 address is converted to a string for single-key lookup
+ in an address list (e.g. for an item such as "net24-dbm;/net/works"),
+ dots are used instead of colons so that keys in lsearch files need not
+ contain colons. This was done some time before quoting was made available
+ in lsearch files. However, iplsearch files do require colons in IPv6 keys
+ (notated using the quote facility) so as to distinguish them from IPv4
+ keys. This meant that lookups for IP addresses in host lists did not work
+ for iplsearch lookups.
+
+ This has been fixed by arranging for IPv6 addresses to be expressed with
+ colons if the lookup type is iplsearch. This is not incompatible, because
+ previously such lookups could never work.
+
+ The situation is now rather anomolous, since one *can* have colons in
+ ordinary lsearch keys. However, making the change in all cases is
+ incompatible and would probably break a number of configurations.
+
+TK/01 Change PRVS address formatting scheme to reflect latests BATV draft
+ version.
+
+MH/01 The "spam" ACL condition code contained a sscanf() call with a %s
+ conversion specification without a maximum field width, thereby enabling
+ a rogue spamd server to cause a buffer overflow. While nobody in their
+ right mind would setup Exim to query an untrusted spamd server, an
+ attacker that gains access to a server running spamd could potentially
+ exploit this vulnerability to run arbitrary code as the Exim user.
+
+TK/02 Bugzilla 502: Apply patch to make the SPF-Received: header use
+ $primary_hostname instead of what libspf2 thinks the hosts name is.
+
+MH/02 The dsearch lookup now uses lstat(2) instead of stat(2) to look for
+ a directory entry by the name of the lookup key. Previously, if a
+ symlink pointed to a non-existing file or a file in a directory that
+ Exim lacked permissions to read, a lookup for a key matching that
+ symlink would fail. Now it is enough that a matching directory entry
+ exists, symlink or not. (Bugzilla 503.)
+
+PH/03 The body_linecount and body_zerocount variables are now exported in the
+ local_scan API.
+
+PH/04 Added the $dnslist_matched variable.
+
+PH/05 Unset $tls_cipher and $tls_peerdn before making a connection as a client.
+ This means they are set thereafter only if the connection becomes
+ encrypted.
+
+PH/06 Added the client_condition to authenticators so that some can be skipped
+ by clients under certain conditions.
+
+PH/07 The error message for a badly-placed control=no_multiline_responses left
+ "_responses" off the end of the name.
+
+PH/08 Added -Mvc to output a copy of a message in RFC 2822 format.
+
+PH/09 Tidied the code for creating ratelimiting keys, creating them explicitly
+ (without spaces) instead of just copying the configuration text.
+
+PH/10 Added the /noupdate option to the ratelimit ACL condition.
+
+PH/11 Added $max_received_linelength.
+
+PH/12 Added +ignore_defer and +include_defer to host lists.
+
+PH/13 Installed PCRE version 7.2. This needed some changes because of the new
+ way in which PCRE > 7.0 is built.
+
+PH/14 Implemented queue_only_load_latch.
+
+PH/15 Removed an incorrect (int) cast when reading the value of SIZE in a
+ MAIL command. The effect was to mangle the value on 64-bit systems.
+
+PH/16 Another patch from the Sieve maintainer.
+
+PH/17 Added the NOTQUIT ACL, based on a patch from Ted Cooper.
+
+PH/18 If a system quota error occurred while trying to create the file for
+ a maildir delivery, the message "Mailbox is full" was not appended to the
+ bounce if the delivery eventually timed out. Change 4.67/27 below applied
+ only to a quota excession during the actual writing of the file.
+
+PH/19 It seems that peer DN values may contain newlines (and other non-printing
+ characters?) which causes problems in log lines. The DN values are now
+ passed through string_printing() before being added to log lines.
+
+PH/20 Added the "servers=" facility to MySQL and PostgreSQL lookups. (Oracle
+ and InterBase are left for another time.)
+
+PH/21 Added message_body_newlines option.
+
+PH/22 Guard against possible overflow in moan_check_errorcopy().
+
+PH/23 POSIX allows open() to be a macro; guard against that.
+
+PH/24 If the recipient of an error message contained an @ in the local part
+ (suitably quoted, of course), incorrect values were put in $domain and
+ $local_part during the evaluation of errors_copy.
+
+
Exim version 4.67
-----------------
PH/14 Added log_selector = +pid.
+PH/15 Flush SMTP output before delaying, unless control=no_delay_flush is set.
+
+PH/16 Add ${if forany and ${if forall.
+
+PH/17 Added dsn_from option to vary the From: line in DSNs.
+
+PH/18 Flush SMTP output before performing a callout, unless control =
+ no_callout_flush is set.
+
+PH/19 Change 4.64/PH/36 introduced a bug: when address_retry_include_sender
+ was true (the default) a successful delivery failed to delete the retry
+ item, thus causing premature timeout of the address. The bug is now
+ fixed.
+
+PH/20 Added hosts_avoid_pipelining to the smtp transport.
+
+PH/21 Long custom messages for fakedefer and fakereject are now split up
+ into multiline reponses in the same way that messages for "deny" and
+ other ACL rejections are.
+
+PH/22 Applied Jori Hamalainen's speed-up changes and typo fixes to exigrep,
+ with slight modification.
+
+PH/23 Applied sieve patches from the maintainer "tracking the latest notify
+ draft, changing the syntax and factoring some duplicate code".
+
+PH/24 When the log selector "outgoing_port" was set, the port was shown as -1
+ for deliveries of the second and subsequent messages over the same SMTP
+ connection.
+
+PH/25 Applied Magnus Holmgren's patch for ${addresses, ${map, ${filter, and
+ ${reduce, with only minor "tidies".
+
+SC/02 Applied Daniel Tiefnig's patch to improve the '($parent) =' pattern match.
+
+PH/26 Added a "continue" ACL modifier that does nothing, for the benefit of its
+ expansion side effects.
+
+PH/27 When a message times out after an over-quota error from an Exim-imposed
+ quota, the bounce message says "mailbox is full". This message was not
+ being given when it was a system quota that was exceeded. It now should
+ be the same.
+
+MH/03 Made $recipients available in local_scan(). local_scan() already has
+ better access to the recipient list through recipients_list[], but
+ $recipients can be useful in postmaster-provided expansion strings.
+
+PH/28 The $smtp_command and $smtp_command_argument variables were not correct
+ in the case of a MAIL command with additional options following the
+ address, for example: MAIL FROM:<foo@bar> SIZE=1234. The option settings
+ were accidentally chopped off.
+
+PH/29 SMTP synchronization checks are implemented when a command is read -
+ there is a check that no more input is waiting when there shouldn't be
+ any. However, for some commands, a delay in an ACL can mean that it is
+ some time before the response is written. In this time, more input might
+ arrive, invalidly. So now there are extra checks after an ACL has run for
+ HELO/EHLO and after the predata ACL, and likewise for MAIL and RCPT when
+ pipelining has not been advertised.
+
+PH/30 MH's patch to allow iscntrl() characters to be list separators.
+
+PH/31 Unlike :fail:, a custom message specified with :defer: was not being
+ returned in the SMTP response when smtp_return_error_details was false.
+ This has been fixed.
+
+PH/32 Change the Dovecot authenticator to use read() and write() on the socket
+ instead of the C I/O that was originally supplied, because problems were
+ reported on Solaris.
+
+PH/33 Compile failed with OpenSSL 0.9.8e. This was due to a coding error in
+ Exim which did not show up earlier: it was assuming that a call to
+ SSL_CTX_set_info_callback() might give an error value. In fact, there is
+ no error. In previous releases of OpenSSL, SSL_CTX_set_info_callback()
+ was a macro that became an assignment, so it seemed to work. This has
+ changed to a proper function call with a void return, hence the compile
+ error. Exim's code has been fixed.
+
+PH/34 Change HDA_SIZE in oracle.c from 256 to 512. This is needed for 64-bit
+ cpus.
+
+PH/35 Applied a patch from the Sieve maintainer which fixes a bug in "notify".
+
+PH/36 Applied John Jetmore's patch to add -v functionality to exigrep.
+
+PH/37 If a message is not accepted after it has had an id assigned (e.g.
+ because it turns out to be too big or there is a timeout) there is no
+ "Completed" line in the log. When some messages of this type were
+ selected by exigrep, they were listed as "not completed". Others were
+ picked up by some special patterns. I have improved the selection
+ criteria to be more general.
+
+PH/38 The host_find_failed option in the manualroute router can now be set
+ to "ignore", to completely ignore a host whose IP address cannot be
+ found. If all hosts are ignored, the behaviour is controlled by the new
+ host_all_ignored option.
+
+PH/39 In a list of hosts for manualroute, if one item (either because of multi-
+ homing or because of multiple MX records with /mx) generated more than
+ one IP address, and the following item turned out to be the local host,
+ all the secondary addresses of the first item were incorrectly removed
+ from the list, along with the local host and any following hosts (which
+ is what is supposed to happen).
+
+PH/40 When Exim receives a message, it writes the login name, uid, and gid of
+ whoever called Exim into the -H file. In the case of the daemon it was
+ behaving confusingly. When first started, it used values for whoever
+ started the daemon, but after a SIGHUP it used the Exim user (because it
+ calls itself on a restart). I have changed the code so that it now always
+ uses the Exim user.
+
+PH/41 (Following a suggestion from Tony Finch) If all the RCPT commands in a
+ message are rejected with the same error (e.g. no authentication or bad
+ sender address), and a DATA command is nevertheless sent (as can happen
+ with PIPELINING or a stupid MUA), the error message that was given to the

+PH/42 Another patch from the Sieve maintainer.
+
+SC/02 Eximstats - Differentiate between permanent and temporary rejects.
+ Eximstats - Fixed some broken HTML links and added missing column headers
+ (Jez Hancock).
+ Eximstats - Fixed Grand Total Summary Domains, Edomains, and Email
+ columns for Rejects, Temp Rejects, Ham, and Spam rows.
+
+SC/03 Eximstats - V1.58 Fix to get <> and blackhole to show in edomain tables.
+
+PH/43 Yet another patch from the Sieve maintainer.
+
+PH/44 I found a way to check for a TCP/IP connection going away before sending
+ the response to the final '.' that terminates a message, but only in the
+ case where the client has not sent further data following the '.'
+ (unfortunately, this is allowed). However, in many cases there won't be
+ any further data because there won't be any more messages to send. A call
+ to select() can be used: if it shows that the input is "ready", there is
+ either input waiting, or the socket has been closed. An attempt to read
+ the next input character can distinguish the two cases. Previously, Exim
+ would have sent an OK response which the client would never have see.
+ This could lead to message repetition. This fix should cure that, at
+ least in a lot of common cases.
+
+PH/45 Do not advertise STARTTLS in response to HELP unless it would be
+ advertised in response to EHLO.
