| 5 | |
| 6 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-6388 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 7 | mod_status: Ensure refresh parameter is numeric to prevent |
| 8 | a possible XSS attack caused by redirecting to other URLs. |
| 9 | Reported by SecurityReason. [Mark Cox] |
| 10 | |
| 11 | Changes with Apache 1.3.40 (not released) |
| 12 | |
| 13 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-5000 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 14 | mod_imap: Fix cross-site scripting issue. Reported by JPCERT. |
| 15 | [Joe Orton] |
| 16 | |
| 17 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-3847 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 18 | mod_proxy: Prevent reading past the end of a buffer when parsing |
| 19 | date-related headers. PR 41144. |
| 20 | With Apache 1.3, the denial of service vulnerability applies only |
| 21 | to the Windows and NetWare platforms. |
| 22 | [Jeff Trawick] |
| 23 | |
| 24 | *) More efficient implementation of the CVE-2007-3304 PID table |
| 25 | patch. This fixes issues with excessive memory usage by the |
| 26 | parent process if long-running and with a high number of child |
| 27 | process forks during that timeframe. Also fixes bogus "Bad pid" |
| 28 | errors. [Jim Jagielski, Jeff Trawick] |
| 29 | |
| 30 | Changes with Apache 1.3.39 |
| 31 | |
| 32 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2006-5752 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 33 | mod_status: Fix a possible XSS attack against a site with a public |
| 34 | server-status page and ExtendedStatus enabled, for browsers which |
| 35 | perform charset "detection". Reported by Stefan Esser. [Joe Orton] |
| 36 | |
| 37 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2007-3304 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 38 | Ensure that the parent process cannot be forced to kill non-child |
| 39 | processes by checking scoreboard PID data with parent process |
| 40 | privately stored PID data. [Jim Jagielski] |
| 41 | |
| 42 | *) mime.types: Many updates to sync with IANA registry and common |
| 43 | unregistered types that the owners refuse to register. Admins |
| 44 | are encouraged to update their installed mime.types file. |
| 45 | PR: 35550, 37798, 39317, 31483 [Roy T. Fielding] |
| 46 | |
| 47 | There was no Apache 1.3.38 |
| 48 | |
| 49 | Changes with Apache 1.3.37 |
| 50 | |
| 51 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2006-3747 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 52 | mod_rewrite: Fix an off-by-one security problem in the ldap scheme |
| 53 | handling. For some RewriteRules this could lead to a pointer being |
| 54 | written out of bounds. Reported by Mark Dowd of McAfee. |
| 55 | [Mark Cox] |
| 56 | |
| 57 | Changes with Apache 1.3.36 |
| 58 | |
| 59 | *) Reverted SVN rev #396294 due to unwanted regression. |
| 60 | The new feature introduced in 1.3.35 (Allow usage of the |
| 61 | "Include" configuration directive within previously "Include"d |
| 62 | files) has been removed in the meantime. |
| 63 | (http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=396294&view=rev) |
| 64 | |
| 65 | Changes with Apache 1.3.35 |
| 66 | |
| 67 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2005-3352 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 68 | mod_imap: Escape untrusted referer header before outputting in HTML |
| 69 | to avoid potential cross-site scripting. Change also made to |
| 70 | ap_escape_html so we escape quotes. Reported by JPCERT. |
| 71 | [Mark Cox] |
| 72 | |
| 73 | *) core: Allow usage of the "Include" configuration directive within |
| 74 | previously "Include"d files. [Colm MacCarthaigh] |
| 75 | |
| 76 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2006-3918 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 77 | HTML-escape the Expect error message. Only a security issue if |
| 78 | an attacker can influence the Expect header a victim will send to a |
| 79 | target site (it's known that some versions of Flash can do this) |
| 80 | Reported by Thiago Zaninotti <thiango nstalker.com>. [Mark Cox] |
| 81 | |
| 82 | *) mod_cgi: Remove block on OPTIONS method so that scripts can |
| 83 | respond to OPTIONS directly rather than via server default. |
| 84 | [Roy Fielding] PR 15242 |
| 85 | |
| 86 | Changes with Apache 1.3.34 |
| 87 | |
| 88 | *) hsregex: fix potential core dumping on 64 bit machines, such as |
| 89 | AMD64. PR 31858. [Glenn Strauss < gs-apache-dev gluelogic.com>] |
| 90 | |
| 91 | *) SECURITY: core: If a request contains both Transfer-Encoding and |
| 92 | Content-Length headers, remove the Content-Length, mitigating some |
| 93 | HTTP Request Splitting/Spoofing attacks. This has no impact on |
| 94 | mod_proxy_http, yet affects any module which supports chunked |
| 95 | encoding yet fails to prefer T-E: chunked over the Content-Length |
| 96 | purported value. [Paul Querna, Joe Orton] |
| 97 | |
| 98 | *) Added TraceEnable [on|off|extended] per-server directive to alter |
| 99 | the behavior of the TRACE method. This addresses a flaw in proxy |
| 100 | conformance to RFC 2616 - previously the proxy server would accept |
| 101 | a TRACE request body although the RFC prohibited it. The default |
| 102 | remains 'TraceEnable on'. |
| 103 | [William Rowe] |
| 104 | |
| 105 | *) mod_digest: Fix another nonce string calculation issue. |
| 106 | [Eric Covener] |
| 107 | |
| 108 | Changes with Apache 1.3.33 |
| 109 | |
| 110 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2004-0940 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 111 | mod_include: Fix potential buffer overflow with escaped characters |
| 112 | in SSI tag string. [Martin Kraemer, Jim Jagielski] |
| 113 | |
| 114 | Changes with Apache 1.3.32 |
| 115 | |
| 116 | *) mod_rewrite: Fix query string handling for proxied URLs. PR 14518. |
| 117 | [michael teitler <michael.teitler cetelem.fr>, |
| 118 | Jan Kratochvil <rcpt-dev.AT.httpd.apache.org jankratochvil.net>] |
| 119 | |
| 120 | *) mod_rewrite: Fix 0 bytes write into random memory position. |
| 121 | PR 31036. [André Malo] |
| 122 | |
| 123 | *) mod_digest: Fix nonce string calculation since 1.3.31 which |
| 124 | would force re-authentication for every connection if |
| 125 | AuthDigestRealmSeed was not configured. PR 30920. [Joe Orton] |
| 126 | |
| 127 | *) Trigger an error when a LoadModule directive attempts to |
| 128 | load a module which is built-in. This is a common error when |
| 129 | switching from a DSO build to a static build. |
| 130 | [Jeff Trawick, Geoffrey Young] |
| 131 | |
| 132 | *) Fix trivial bug in mod_log_forensic that caused the child |
| 133 | to seg fault when certain invalid requests were fired at it with |
| 134 | forensic logging is enabled. PR 29313. |
| 135 | [Will Slater <Will Slater orbisuk.com>] |
| 136 | |
| 137 | *) Fix memory leak in the cache handling of mod_rewrite. PR 27862. |
| 138 | [chunyan sheng <shengperson yahoo.com>, André Malo] |
| 139 | |
| 140 | *) mod_rewrite no longer confuses the RewriteMap caches if |
| 141 | different maps defined in different virtual hosts use the |
| 142 | same map name. PR 26462. [André Malo] |
| 143 | |
| 144 | *) mod_setenvif: Remove "support" for Remote_User variable which |
| 145 | never worked at all. PR 25725. [André Malo] |
| 146 | |
| 147 | *) mod_usertrack: Escape the cookie name before pasting into the |
| 148 | regexp. [André Malo] |
| 149 | |
| 150 | *) Win32: Improve error reporting after a failed attempt to spawn a |
| 151 | piped log process or rewrite map process. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 152 | |
| 153 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2004-0492 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 154 | Reject responses from a remote server if sent an invalid (negative) |
| 155 | Content-Length. [Mark Cox] |
| 156 | |
| 157 | *) Fix a bunch of cases where the return code of the regex compiler |
| 158 | was not checked properly. This affects mod_usertrack and |
| 159 | core. PR 28218. [André Malo] |
| 160 | |
| 161 | *) No longer breaks mod_dav, frontpage and others. Repair a patch |
| 162 | in 1.3.31 which prevented discarding the request body for requests |
| 163 | that will be keptalive but are not currently keptalive. PR 29237. |
| 164 | [Jim Jagielski, Rasmus Lerdorf] |
| 165 | |
| 166 | *) COMPATIBILITY: Added new compile-time flag: UCN_OFF_HONOR_PHYSICAL_PORT. |
| 167 | It controls how UseCanonicalName Off determines the port value if |
| 168 | the client doesn't provide one in the Host header. If defined during |
| 169 | compilation, UseCanonicalName Off will use the physical port number to |
| 170 | generate the canonical name. If not defined, it tries the current Port |
| 171 | value followed by the default port for the current scheme. |
| 172 | [Jim Jagielski] |
| 173 | |
| 174 | Changes with Apache 1.3.31 |
| 175 | |
| 176 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2003-0987 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 177 | Verification as to whether the nonce returned in the client response |
| 178 | is one we issued ourselves by means of a AuthDigestRealmSeed secret |
| 179 | exposed as an md5(). See mod_digest documentation for more details. |
| 180 | The experimental mod_auth_digest.c does not have this issue. |
| 181 | [Dirk-Willem van Gulik, Jeff Trawick, Jim Jagielski] |
| 182 | |
| 183 | Changes with Apache 1.3.30 |
| 184 | |
| 185 | *) Fix memory corruption problem with ap_custom_response() function. |
| 186 | The core per-dir config would later point to request pool data |
| 187 | that would be reused for different purposes on different requests. |
| 188 | [Will Lowe, Jeff Trawick] |
| 189 | |
| 190 | *) Reinit socket to allow mod_proxy to continue to try |
| 191 | connections when invalid IPs are accessed. PR 27542. |
| 192 | [Alexander Prohorenko <white extrasy.net>] |
| 193 | |
| 194 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2004-0174 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 195 | Fix starvation issue on listening sockets where a short-lived |
| 196 | connection on a rarely-accessed listening socket will cause a |
| 197 | child to hold the accept mutex and block out new connections until |
| 198 | another connection arrives on that rarely-accessed listening socket. |
| 199 | Enabled for some platforms known to have the issue (accept() |
| 200 | blocking after select() returns readable). Define |
| 201 | NONBLOCK_WHEN_MULTI_LISTEN if needed for your platform and not |
| 202 | already defined. [Jeff Trawick, Brad Nicholes, Joe Orton] |
| 203 | |
| 204 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2003-0993 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 205 | Fix parsing of Allow/Deny rules using IP addresses without a |
| 206 | netmask; issue is only known to affect big-endian 64-bit |
| 207 | platforms; on affected platforms such rules would never produce |
| 208 | matches. PR 23850. [Henning Brauer <henning openbsd.org>] |
| 209 | |
| 210 | *) Fix mod_include's expression parser to recognize strings correctly |
| 211 | even if they start with an escaped token. [André Malo] |
| 212 | |
| 213 | *) The whole codebase was relicensed and is now available under |
| 214 | the Apache License, Version 2.0 (http://www.apache.org/licenses). |
| 215 | [Apache Software Foundation] |
| 216 | |
| 217 | *) Add mod_whatkilledus and mod_backtrace (experimental) for |
| 218 | reporting diagnostic information after a child process crash. |
| 219 | See source code for documentation. |
| 220 | [Jeff Trawick, with help from mod_log_forensic] |
| 221 | |
| 222 | *) mod_usertrack no longer inspects the Cookie2 header for |
| 223 | the cookie name. PR 11475. [Chris Darrochi <chrisd pearsoncmg.com>] |
| 224 | |
| 225 | *) mod_usertrack no longer overwrites other cookies. |
| 226 | PR 26002. [Scott Moore <apache nopdesign.com>] |
| 227 | |
| 228 | *) Add fatal exception hook for running diagnostic code after a |
| 229 | crash. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 230 | |
| 231 | *) Make REMOTE_PORT variable available in mod_rewrite. |
| 232 | PR 25772. [André Malo] |
| 233 | |
| 234 | *) Forensic logging shouldn't log internal redirects. |
| 235 | [Ivan Ristic <ivanr webkreator.com>] |
| 236 | |
| 237 | *) Some syntax errors in mod_mime_magic's magic file can result |
| 238 | in a 500 error, which previously was unlogged. Now we log the |
| 239 | error. PR 8329. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 240 | |
| 241 | *) Linux 2.4+: If Apache is started as root and you code |
| 242 | CoreDumpDirectory, coredumps are enabled via the prctl() syscall. |
| 243 | Backport of a 2.x feature by Greg Ames. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 244 | |
| 245 | *) Fix bug causing core dump when using CookieTracking without |
| 246 | specifying a CookieName directly. Bugz# 24483. |
| 247 | [Manni Wood <manniwood planet-save.com>, Jim Jagielski (backport)] |
| 248 | |
| 249 | *) Fix RewriteBase directive to not add double slashes. [André Malo] |
| 250 | |
| 251 | *) mod_rewrite: In external rewrite maps lookup keys containing |
| 252 | a newline now cause a lookup failure. PR 14453. |
| 253 | [Cedric Gavage <cedric.gavage unixtech.be>, André Malo] |
| 254 | |
| 255 | *) Forensic logging module added (mod_log_forensic). |
| 256 | [Ben Laurie] |
| 257 | |
| 258 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2003-0020 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 259 | Escape arbitrary data before writing into the errorlog. Unescaped |
| 260 | errorlogs are still possible using the compile time switch |
| 261 | "-DAP_UNSAFE_ERROR_LOG_UNESCAPED". [Geoffrey Young, André Malo] |
| 262 | |
| 263 | *) '%X' is now accepted as an alias for '%c' in the |
| 264 | LogFormat directive. This allows you to configure logging |
| 265 | to still log the connection status even with mod_ssl |
| 266 | (which changes what '%c' means). [Jim Jagielski] |
| 267 | |
| 268 | *) UseCanonicalName off was ignoring the client provided |
| 269 | port information. [Jim Jagielski] |
| 270 | |
| 271 | Changes with Apache 1.3.29 |
| 272 | |
| 273 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2003-0542 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 274 | Fix buffer overflows in mod_alias and mod_rewrite which occurred if |
| 275 | one configured a regular expression with more than 9 captures. |
| 276 | [André Malo] |
| 277 | |
| 278 | *) Within ap_bclose(), ap_pclosesocket() is now called consistently |
| 279 | for sockets and ap_pclosef() for files. Also, closesocket() |
| 280 | is used consistenly to close socket fd's. The previous |
| 281 | confusion between socket and file fd's would cause problems |
| 282 | with some applications now that we proactively close fd's to |
| 283 | prevent leakage. PR 22805 |
| 284 | [Radu Greab <rgreab fx.ro>, Jim Jagielski] |
| 285 | |
| 286 | *) If a request fails and the client will be redirected to another URL |
| 287 | due to ErrorDocument, see if we need to drop the connection after |
| 288 | sending the 302 response. This fixes a problem where Apache treated |
| 289 | the body of the failed request as the next request on a keepalive |
| 290 | connection. The subsequent 501 error sent to the browser prevented |
| 291 | some browsers from fetching the error document. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 292 | |
| 293 | *) Fixed mod_usertrack to not get false positive matches on the |
| 294 | user-tracking cookie's name. PR 16661. |
| 295 | [Manni Wood <manniwood planet-save.com>] |
| 296 | |
| 297 | *) Enabled RFC1413 ident functionality for both Win32 and |
| 298 | NetWare platforms. This also included an alternate thread safe |
| 299 | implementation of the socket timout functionality when querying |
| 300 | the identd daemon. |
| 301 | [Brad Nicholes, William Rowe] |
| 302 | |
| 303 | *) Prevent creation of subprocess Zombies when using CGI wrappers |
| 304 | such as suExec and cgiwrap. PR 21737. [Numerous] |
| 305 | |
| 306 | *) ab: Overlong credentials given via command line no longer clobber |
| 307 | the buffer. [André Malo] |
| 308 | |
| 309 | *) Fix ProxyPass for ftp requests - the original code was segfaulting since |
| 310 | many of the values were not being filled out in the request_rec. |
| 311 | [Tollef Fog Heen <tfheen debian.org>, Thom May] |
| 312 | |
| 313 | Changes with Apache 1.3.28 |
| 314 | |
| 315 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2003-0460 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 316 | Fix the rotatelogs support program on Win32 and OS/2 to ignore |
| 317 | special control characters received over the pipe. Previously |
| 318 | such characters could cause rotatelogs to quit logging and exit. |
| 319 | [André Malo] |
| 320 | |
| 321 | *) Prevent the server from crashing when entering infinite loops. The |
| 322 | new LimitInternalRecursion directive configures limits of subsequent |
| 323 | internal redirects and nested subrequests, after which the request |
| 324 | will be aborted. PR 19753 (and probably others). |
| 325 | [William Rowe, Jeff Trawick, Jim Jagielski, André Malo] |
| 326 | |
| 327 | *) Fix NULL-pointer issue in ab when parsing an incomplete or non-HTTP |
| 328 | response. PR 21085. [Glenn Nielsen <glenn apache.org>, André Malo] |
| 329 | |
| 330 | *) Removed BIND_NOSTART from HP/UX shl_load() logic for loadable |
| 331 | Apache modules, so that statics are initialized when the module |
| 332 | is loaded (especially critical for c++ modules on HPUX.) |
| 333 | [William Rowe, Noah Arliss <narliss netegrity.com>] |
| 334 | |
| 335 | *) Win32 build system changes; always recompile buildmark.c (used for |
| 336 | Apache -v 'server built' messages) even when Apache is built from |
| 337 | within the IDE; build test_char.h and uri_delims.h from within the |
| 338 | ApacheCore.dsp project. PR 12706. [William Rowe] |
| 339 | |
| 340 | *) Introduce Win32 .pdb diagnostic symbols into the Apache 1.3 build |
| 341 | (as created in Apache 2.0.45 and later.) Makes debugging and |
| 342 | analysis of crash dumps and Dr. Watson logs trivial. Requires the |
| 343 | Win32 binary builder to set aside the exact .pdb files that match |
| 344 | the released binaries (.exe/.so files) for reference by users and |
| 345 | developers. [William Rowe] |
| 346 | |
| 347 | *) Make sure the accept mutex is released before calling child exit |
| 348 | hooks and cleanups. Otherwise, modules can segfault in such code |
| 349 | and, with pthread mutexes, leave the server deadlocked. Even if |
| 350 | the module doesn't segfault, if it performs extensive processing |
| 351 | it can temporarily prevent the server from accepting new |
| 352 | connections. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 353 | |
| 354 | *) Fix mod_rewrite's handling of absolute URIs. The escaping routines |
| 355 | now work scheme dependent and the query string will only be |
| 356 | appended if supported by the particular scheme. [André Malo] |
| 357 | |
| 358 | *) Use appropriate language codes for Czech (cs) and Traditional Chinese |
| 359 | (zh-tw) in default config files. PR 9427. [André Malo] |
| 360 | |
| 361 | *) Don't block synchronous signals (e.g., SIGSEGV) while waiting for |
| 362 | and holding a pthread accept mutex. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 363 | |
| 364 | *) AIX: Change the default accept mechanism from pthread back to |
| 365 | fcntl. Idle child cleanup doesn't work when the child selected |
| 366 | for termination by the parent is waiting on a pthread mutex, and |
| 367 | because the AIX kernel's notion of hot process is apparently the |
| 368 | same as Apache's, it is common for the Apache parent to continually |
| 369 | select a child for termination that the kernel will leave waiting |
| 370 | on the mutex for extended periods of time. There are other |
| 371 | concerns with pthread mutexes as well, such as the ability to |
| 372 | deadlock the server if a child process segfaults while holding the |
| 373 | mutex. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 374 | |
| 375 | *) Fix a pair of potential buffer overflows in htdigest |
| 376 | [Martin Schulze <joey infodrom.org>, Thom May] |
| 377 | |
| 378 | *) A newly created child now has a start_time of 0, to prevent |
| 379 | mod_status from displaying a bogus value for the "time to |
| 380 | process most recent request" column for freshly-started children |
| 381 | in a previously-used scoreboard slot. [Martin Kraemer] |
| 382 | |
| 383 | *) When using Redirect in directory context, append requested query |
| 384 | string if there's no one supplied by configuration. PR 10961. |
| 385 | [André Malo] |
| 386 | |
| 387 | *) Fix path handling of mod_rewrite, especially on non-unix systems. |
| 388 | There was some confusion between local paths and URL paths. |
| 389 | PR 12902. [André Malo] |
| 390 | |
| 391 | *) backport from 2.x series: Prevent endless loops of internal redirects |
| 392 | in mod_rewrite by aborting after exceeding a limit of internal redirects. |
| 393 | The limit defaults to 10 and can be changed using the RewriteOptions |
| 394 | directive. PR 17462. [André Malo] |
| 395 | |
| 396 | *) Use the correct locations of srm.conf and access.conf when tailoring |
| 397 | the httpd.conf during the install process. PR 9446. |
| 398 | [Stanislav Brabec <utx penguin.cz>] |
| 399 | |
| 400 | *) suexec: Be more pedantic when cleaning environment. Clean it |
| 401 | immediately after startup. PR 2790, 10449. |
| 402 | [Jeff Stewart <jws purdue.edu>, André Malo] |
| 403 | |
| 404 | *) Fix apxs to insert LoadModule/AddModule directives only outside of |
| 405 | sections. PR 8712, 9012. [André Malo] |
| 406 | |
| 407 | *) Fix suexec compile error under SUNOS4, where strerror() doesn't |
| 408 | exist. PR 5913, 9977. |
| 409 | [Jonathan W Miner <Jonathan.W.Miner lmco.com>] |
| 410 | |
| 411 | *) Unix build: Add support for environment variable |
| 412 | EXTRA_LDFLAGS_SHLIB, which allows the user to add to the hard-coded |
| 413 | ld flags specified for DSOs. Compare with the existing LDFLAGS_SHLIB |
| 414 | environment variable, which allows the user to completely replace the |
| 415 | hard-coded ld flags specified for DSOs. [Jeff Trawick] |
| 416 | |
| 417 | *) mod_auth_digest no longer tries to guess AuthDigestDomain, if it's |
| 418 | not specified. Now it assumes "/" as already documented. PR 16937. |
| 419 | [André Malo] |

| 881 | *) Link with -lpthread on Solaris since we reference pthread |
| 882 | functions for the accept mutex. Previously, the link step |
| 883 | would succeed but we would link to bogus versions of the |

| 929 | The patch changes mod_proxy to write the reply-headers using |
| 930 | ap_send_http_header() instead of directly using ap_bvputs(). This not |
| 931 | only simplifies mod_proxy, in my opinion at least, but enables it to |

| 1038 | [Jeff Trawick] |
| 1039 | |
| 1040 | *) Win32: The Apache Win32 developers generally recommend that |
| 1041 | MaxRequestsPerChild be set to 0 to prevent the child process |
| 1042 | from ever recycling. However, for those that do require a |
| 1043 | non-zero setting, this patch fixes a serious bug that can cause |
| 1044 | an apparent 'server-hang' condition where the server stops |
| 1045 | responding to requests for a period of time. Prior to this |
| 1046 | fix, when the child process handled MaxRequestsPerChild |
| 1047 | connnections, the child process would stop accepting new |
| 1048 | connections and begin allowing inactive threads to exit. The |
| 1049 | problem was that a new process would not be created to begin |
| 1050 | handling requests until the old process fully exited. The old |
| 1051 | process can take an indeterminate amount of time to exit because |
| 1052 | it may be sending large responses to clients connected over slow |
| 1053 | links, or it may have threads blocked in read awaiting requests |
| 1054 | (eg, one attack mode of the Nimda worm is to establish a |
| 1055 | connection to the server but not send an HTTP request. This |
| 1056 | connection will be timed out according to the setting of the |
| 1057 | Timeout directive, 300 seconds). This fix allows the new process |
| 1058 | to be immediately started and begin accepting requests when the |
| 1059 | old child process reaches MaxRequestsPerChild. |

| 1112 | *) Modified mod_mime and mod_negotiation to prevent mod_negotiation |
| 1113 | from serving any multiview variant containing one or more |
| 1114 | 'unknown' filename extensions. In PR #8130, mod_negotiation was |
| 1115 | incorrectly serving index.html.zh.Big5 when better variants were |
| 1116 | available. The httpd.conf file on the failing server did not have |
| 1117 | an AddLanguage directive for .zh, which caused mod_mime to loose |
| 1118 | the file_type information it gleened from parsing the .html |
| 1119 | extension. The absence of any language preferences, either in |
| 1120 | the browser or configured on the server, caused mod_negotiation |
| 1121 | to consider all the variants equivalent. When that occurs, |
| 1122 | mod_negotiation picks the 'smallest' variant available, which |
| 1123 | just happened to be index.html.zh.Big5. |

| 1234 | convert the "CONNECT host:port HTTP/1.0" request line to ASCII |
| 1235 | before contacting the next proxy, and was thus unusable for |
| 1236 | SSL proxying. [Martin Kraemer] |

| 1238 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2001-0730 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 1239 | Make support/split-logfile use the default log file if |
| 1240 | "/" or "\" are present in the virtual host name. This prevents |
| 1241 | the possible use of specially crafted virtual host names in |
| 1242 | some configurations to allow writing to any .log file on the |
| 1243 | system. [Daniel Matuschek <daniel.matuschek swisscom.com>, |
| 1244 | Marc Slemko] PR#7848 |
| 1245 | |
| 1246 | *) Added a directive: "AcceptFilter <on|off>". To control BSD |
| 1247 | acccept filters when at compile time SO_ACCEPT_FILTER is |
| 1248 | detected. The default is still 'on' except when, at compile |
| 1249 | time, AP_ACCEPT_FILTER_OFF is defined. |
| 1250 | |
| 1251 | Also downgraded the fatal exit to a warning when the |
| 1252 | associated setsocketopt(2) fails for any reason but |
| 1253 | for ENOPROTOOPT. The latter - which implies that the |
| 1254 | kernel does not support the filters - now rates only an |
| 1255 | info level message. All in all this should make it easier |
| 1256 | to move httpd binaries and config files across BSD machines |
| 1257 | with varying acceptfilter support. |

| 1283 | recv() instead of read() on Windows. |
| 1284 | [Bill Stoddard, Bill Rowe] |
| 1285 | |
| 1286 | *) Added an abnormal exit clean up routine to make sure that ApacheC NLM |
| 1287 | is always unloaded cleanly. This fixes the "Ouch! out of memory" |
| 1288 | problem when restarting Apache for NetWare after an abnormal exit |
| 1289 | due to configuration errors. |

| 1292 | *) Change the compile switches for ReliantUNIX SVR4 not to use |
| 1293 | SYSV semaphores, because upon reaching the system limit of |
| 1294 | semaphores, the whole server exits (not just one child). |
| 1295 | Apache could be improved to use NO_SEM_UNDO flag (see test/time-sem.c) |
| 1296 | which is currently implemented only in the time-sem program, but not in |
| 1297 | apache. Until then, revert to using fcntl() locks. |
| 1298 | [Martin Kraemer] |
| 1299 | |
| 1300 | *) Changes to 'ab': fixed int overruns, added statistics, output in |
| 1301 | csv/gnuplot format, rudimentary SSL support and various other tweaks |
| 1302 | to make results more true to what is measured. The upshot of this it |
| 1303 | turns out that 'ab' has often underreported the true performance of |
| 1304 | apache. Often by a order of magnitude :-) See talk/paper of Sander |
| 1305 | Temme at April ApacheCon 2001 for details. |

| 1311 | ap_snprintf.c. [Jim Jagielski] |
| 1312 | |
| 1313 | *) SECURITY DoS: CVE-2001-1342 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 1314 | Correct a vulnerability in the Win32 and OS2 ports, by which a |
| 1315 | client submitting a carefully constructed URI could cause a GP |
| 1316 | (segment) fault in the child process, which would have to be |
| 1317 | cleared by the operator to resume operation. This vulnerability |
| 1318 | introduced no identified means of compromising the server's data. |
| 1319 | Reported by Auriemma Luigi <kaino3 genie.it>. |
| 1320 | [William Rowe, Brian Havard] |
| 1321 | |
| 1322 | *) Resolve the Win32 SSI exec cmd bug, where cmd was not executed |
| 1323 | appropriately against the shell. [William Rowe] |
| 1324 | |
| 1325 | *) Added NOESCAPE (NS) flag to RewriteRule and enabled use of |
| 1326 | '\' to allow escaping of special characters. Previously |
| 1327 | there was no way to embed either '$' or '%' in the output |
| 1328 | of a RewriteRule; now 'foo\$1' will result in a literal |
| 1329 | 'foo$1' appearing in the result rather than 'foo\<value of $1>'. |
| 1330 | Note that [NS] disables *all* normal URI escaping, so incautious |
| 1331 | use can give unexpected results. [Ken Coar] |
| 1332 | |
| 1333 | *) Add support for Win32 apxs. Note that cygwin builders must use a |
| 1334 | cygwin perl to avoid the MSWin32 handling. [William Rowe] |
| 1335 | |
| 1336 | *) Changed the initial screen handling for NetWare so that the -s |
| 1337 | parameter will properly destroy the Apache console screen and switch |
| 1338 | to the system console screen. Also removed the call to clrscr() for |
| 1339 | NetWare so that any warning messages produced during startup are visible. |
| 1340 | [Brad Nicholes <BNICHOLES novell.com>] |
| 1341 | |
| 1342 | *) Integrate support for the Cygwin 1.x platform (a POSIX emulation layer |
| 1343 | for Win32 systems, see http://www.cygwin.com) |
| 1344 | [Stipe Tolj <tolj wapme-systems.de>] |
| 1345 | |
| 1346 | *) Hooked calls to opendir() and readdir() so that we could add '.' and |
| 1347 | '..' to the entry list. By default NetWare does not return these |
| 1348 | entries which caused mod_autoindex not to display the parent directory |
| 1349 | entry. [Brad Nicholes <BNICHOLES novell.com>] |
| 1350 | |
| 1351 | *) Solved a very serious threading problem with WinNT/2K Services. The |
| 1352 | moment master_main told that the shutdown was complete, the parent |
| 1353 | control thread exited Apache, leaving mod_jserv's Java process running |
| 1354 | and alternately invoking mod_perl's cleanups from the correct thread |
| 1355 | or the service control thread. [William Rowe] |
| 1356 | |
| 1357 | *) Populate the Win32 HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\[apachesvc] |
| 1358 | key with the Description value of the running server across all Win32 |
| 1359 | platforms, including NT, ME and 9x. This value is the server_version |
| 1360 | string including loaded modules. [William Rowe] |
| 1361 | |
| 1362 | *) Fix ndbm.h include problems with various Linux distributions and |
| 1363 | brain-dead glibc >= 2.1, which sometimes have ndbm.h in a |

| 1366 | |
| 1367 | *) Empty headers are allowed by RFC2068 section 4.2. The presence or |
| 1368 | absence of an empty header can be significant. The current mod_proxy |
| 1369 | of httpd 1.3.x removes empty headers. Change mod_proxy to preserve |
| 1370 | empty headers. [Christian von Roques <roques mti.ag>] |
| 1371 | |
| 1372 | *) Enhance rotatelogs so that a UTC offset can be specified, and |
| 1373 | the logfile name can be formatted using strftime(3). [Ken Coar] |
| 1374 | |
| 1375 | *) Fix a possible NULL pointer dereference in the detection of the |
| 1376 | default ServerName or IP string (introduced in 1.3.18). |
| 1377 | [Ignasi Roca, <Ignasi.Roca fujitsu-siemens.com>] |
| 1378 | |
| 1379 | *) Make EBCDIC conversion fully configurable. Until now, apache relied |
| 1380 | on some (incomplete) heuristics, and would fail to correctly serve |
| 1381 | text files when they had a MIME type of application/anything, like |
| 1382 | application/x-javascript. The new conversion directives allow |
| 1383 | defining the conversion based on MIME type or file suffix. |
| 1384 | [Martin Kraemer] |
| 1385 | |
| 1386 | *) Add a -V flag to suexec, which causes it to display the |
| 1387 | compile-time settings with which it was built. (Only |
| 1388 | usable by root or the HTTPD_USER username.) [Ken Coar] |
| 1389 | |
| 1390 | *) Set the Win32 service description in the Services control panel to |
| 1391 | the server_version string from Apache and the loaded modules. |
| 1392 | [William Rowe] |
| 1393 | |
| 1394 | *) Added a new API for NetWare, ap_os_dso_unsym(), to allow Apache the |
| 1395 | chance to unimport module symbols before it shuts down. This is |
| 1396 | necessary so that Apache on NetWare can shutdown cleanly in an error |
| 1397 | condition such as a failure while reading the httpd.conf file. |
| 1398 | [Brad Nicholes <BNICHOLES novell.com>] |
| 1399 | |

| 1417 | versions of MSIE and Netscape. [Clive Lin <clive CirX.ORG>] PR#7142 |
| 1418 | |
| 1419 | *) Fixed system shutdown on Windows 2000 to assure that the modules have |
| 1420 | an opportunity to clean up. Note there is a _very_ limited amount of |
| 1421 | time in which to execute all cleanups [see MSKB Q146092] so all of |
| 1422 | the modules may still not be given an opportunity to complete their |
| 1423 | cleanups if they require more than 20 seconds total. [William Rowe] |
| 1424 | |
| 1425 | Changes with Apache 1.3.18 [not released] |
| 1426 | |
| 1427 | *) Workaround enabled for a core dump which appeared in broken |
| 1428 | NameVirtualHost configurations. [Martin Kraemer] |

| 1434 | on Compaq. [Tom Bates <tom.bates compaq.com>] |
| 1435 | |
| 1436 | *) mod_user on Win32 bug introduced in 1.3.17 is corrected. The parsing |
| 1437 | is completely rewritten so all platforms share the same file/redirect |
| 1438 | logic interpreting UserDir directives. Specifying a Win32 or Netware |
| 1439 | relative path or a relative path on any platform using an '*' now |
| 1440 | emits an error when httpd.conf is first parsed. [William Rowe] |
| 1441 | |
| 1442 | *) Apache/Win32 no longer holds open the console on error, unless invoked |
| 1443 | by a shortcut with the new -w option. [William Rowe] |

| 1450 | |
| 1451 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2001-0925 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 1452 | The default installation could lead to mod_negotiation |
| 1453 | and mod_dir/mod_autoindex displaying a directory listing instead of |

| 1465 | |
| 1466 | *) Win32/Netware: correct relative paths and eliminate trailing slash |

| 1504 | in the UserDir directive on those platforms [William Rowe] |
| 1505 | |
| 1506 | *) Fixed translate_userdir() in MOD_USERDIR.C so that it correctly |
| 1507 | recognizes NetWare absolute paths. This fixes the problem where |
| 1508 | MOD_USERDIR was trying to redirect to an absolute NetWare path |
| 1509 | rather than opening the file at the specified location. This |
| 1510 | patch fixes PR5826 & 6283. [Brad Nicholes <BNICHOLES novell.com>] |
| 1511 | |
| 1512 | *) Fixed ap_os_is_path_absolute() in OS.H so that it can tell the |

| 1514 | [Brad Nicholes <BNICHOLES novell.com>] |
| 1515 | |
| 1516 | *) Fixed the sdbm.h bundled in Apache for Win32, bringing it in sync |
| 1517 | with Perl. Because it didn't have the same geometry as Perl, |
| 1518 | users reported the first user added with dbmmanage was not |
| 1519 | recognized. [William Rowe] |
| 1520 | |
| 1521 | *) Fixed ap_os_canonical_filename to append a the default volume |
| 1522 | name if the the path is a full path and does not include the |
| 1523 | volume name. Since NetWare's current working directory always |
| 1524 | defaults to the SYS: volume regardless of where the executible |
| 1525 | started, the default volume will be the volume that is specified |
| 1526 | in ap_server_root. [Brad Nicholes <BNICHOLES novell.com>] |

| 1556 | display. [Youichirou Koga <y-koga apache.or.jp>] PR#7025 |
| 1557 | |
| 1558 | *) The new Win32 command line option, -k config, replaces the default |
| 1559 | options for the existing, named service with the options given on |
| 1560 | the -k config command line. Apache -n servicename -t now displays |
| 1561 | the default options before it tests the httpd.conf. Use the syntax |
| 1562 | apache -k config -n servicename -f conffile to upgrade an existing |
| 1563 | 1.3.x service to the new 1.3.15 default arguments. [William Rowe] |
| 1564 | |
| 1565 | *) All Win32 services now support default command line options when |
| 1566 | starting an Apache service. The command line options given with |
| 1567 | the apache -k install command, including -d, -f, -D, -C and -c, |
| 1568 | are all saved in the registry. This change superceeds the old |
| 1569 | ConfPath entry, so existing services must be reconfigured when |
| 1570 | upgrading to 1.3.15. [William Rowe] |
| 1571 | |
| 1572 | *) The Win32 build is overhauled to use mod_foo.so for all dynamic |
| 1573 | Apache modules. [William Rowe] |
| 1574 | |
| 1575 | *) The Win32 build scripts (makefile.win, Apache.dsw) now build |
| 1576 | all the usual targets, including the directories htdocs, include, |
| 1577 | lib, libexec, and cgi-bin. [William Rowe] |
| 1578 | |
| 1579 | *) WinNT/2K service can be started from the command line with any |
| 1580 | desired args (e.g. Apache -k start -n apache-1.3 -D FOO will |
| 1581 | start the service with the -D FOO option.) This extends what |
| 1582 | Apache on Win9x already does, even running as a service. |
| 1583 | [William Rowe] |
| 1584 | |
| 1585 | *) WinNT/2K can be started from the Services control panel adding |
| 1586 | whatever args are desired (e.g. -D ARG) in the 'Start Parameters' |
| 1587 | box of the start service dialog. These will be passed on and |
| 1588 | recognized by the service as it starts. [William Rowe] |
| 1589 | |
| 1590 | *) Support -k install/-k uninstall on Win32 for compatibility with |
| 1591 | Apache 2.0. [William Rowe] |
| 1592 | |
| 1593 | *) mod_cgi on Win32 and Netware now does a more effective job of |

| 1600 | |
| 1601 | *) Restore child process consoles to correct 16-bit CGI execution |
| 1602 | on Windows. Relies on Win9xConHook.dll for Win9x. This patch |
| 1603 | also assures the Apache window remains titled 'Apache', rather |
| 1604 | than flickering to the cgi app titles. [William Rowe] |
| 1605 | |
| 1606 | *) Added Win9xConHook.dll, which uses hidden console spy windows to |
| 1607 | handle the shutdown, logoff and Close button events, and dispatch |
| 1608 | them to Apache just as SetConsoleCtrlHandler does on Win NT/2K. |
| 1609 | The close button on Win9x now works, and the Win9x service support |
| 1610 | code moved into this module. [William Rowe] |

| 1612 | *) Fix messages from the -k start/stop/restart command options on |
| 1613 | Windows. [William Rowe] |
| 1614 | |

| 1618 | |
| 1619 | *) The ScriptInterpreterSource Registry source will now handle any |
| 1620 | post-scriptname arguments (e.g. cmd script -q), substitute any |
| 1621 | environment variables (e.g. "%windir%\sysapp.exe") and use the |
| 1622 | short or long path name as appropriate (e.g. "doit %1" uses the |
| 1623 | short form, no spaces, while "doit "%1"" uses the long form of |
| 1624 | the script name, in quotes.) Also, passes all script names in |
| 1625 | backslash delimited format (instead of slashes). [William Rowe] |
| 1626 | |
| 1627 | *) Accomodate an out-of-space condition in the piped logs and the |

| 1661 | and ETag HTTP header tags are sent if IndexOptions TrackModified |
| 1662 | directive/option is used. [William Rowe] |
| 1663 | |
| 1664 | *) Corrected file path arguments from server conf directives to |
| 1665 | their canonical form (excluding OS2 - which uses alternate |

| 1699 | Changes with Apache 1.3.13 [not released] |
| 1700 | |
| 1701 | *) NOTE: A number of Win32 symbols were exported without explicit |
| 1702 | declaration in the ApacheCore.def file. These are now exported |
| 1703 | with the same ordinal export values from 1.3.12, but are now |
| 1704 | named consistent with Apache's conventions. [William Rowe] |
| 1705 | |
| 1706 | *) Add support for a "conf directory" which operates similar to |
| 1707 | /etc/rc.d/init. Basically, if a config file is actually a |

| 1716 | with some limitations. [Mark Bixby <mark_bixby hp.com>] |
| 1717 | |
| 1718 | *) Updated the MPE DSO code to be compatible with an OS patch that |
| 1719 | fixed an earlier DSO problem, #include tweakage required for |
| 1720 | using apxs to build modules without access to the full source |
| 1721 | tree, and other minor MPE tweaks. |
| 1722 | [Mark Bixby <mark_bixby hp.com>] |
| 1723 | |
| 1724 | *) SECURITY: Tighten up the syntax checking of Host: headers to fix a |
| 1725 | security bug in some mass virtual hosting configurations |
| 1726 | that can allow a remote attacker to retrieve some files |
| 1727 | on the system that should be inaccessible. [Tony Finch] |
| 1728 | |
| 1729 | *) Add support for /, //, //servername and //server/sharename |
| 1730 | parsing of <Directory > blocks under Win32 and OS2. |
| 1731 | [Tim Costello, William Rowe, Brian Havard] |
| 1732 | |
| 1733 | *) Expand dbmmanage to allow -d -m -s -p options for Crypt, MD5, |
| 1734 | SHA1 and plaintext password encodings. Make feature tests a |
| 1735 | bit more flexible. [William Rowe] |
| 1736 | |
| 1737 | *) SECURITY: CVE-2000-0913 (cve.mitre.org) |
| 1738 | Fix a security problem that affects some configurations of |
| 1739 | mod_rewrite. If the result of a RewriteRule is a filename that |
| 1740 | contains expansion specifiers, especially regexp backreferences |
| 1741 | $0..$9 and %0..%9, then it may have been possible for an attacker |
| 1742 | to access any file on the web server. [Tony Finch] |
| 1743 | |
| 1744 | *) Add mod_auth_dbm (sdbm flavor) binary build for Win32. |
| 1745 | [William Rowe] |
| 1746 | |
| 1747 | *) Overhaul of dbmmanage to allow a groups arg (as in Apache 1.2) |
| 1748 | as well as a comment arg to the add, adduser and update cmds. |
| 1749 | update allows the user to clear or preserve pw/groups/comment. |
| 1750 | Fixed a bug in dbmmanage that prevented the check option from |
| 1751 | parsing a password followed by :group... text. Corrected the |
| 1752 | seed calcualation for Win32 systems, and added -lsdbm support. |
| 1753 | [William Rowe] |
| 1754 | |
| 1755 | *) Radical surgery to improve mod_isapi support under Win32. |
| 1756 | Includes a number of newer ServerSupportFunction calls, support |
| 1757 | for ReadClient (in order to retrieve POSTs greater than 48KB), |
| 1758 | and general bug fixes to more reliably load ISAPI .dll's and |
| 1759 | prevent leaking handle resources. Note: There are still |
| 1760 | discrepancies between IIS's and Apache's ServerVariables, and |
| 1761 | async calls are still not supported. Additional warnings are |
| 1762 | logged to facilitate debugging of unsupported ISAPI calls. |

| 1765 | *) Update Configure script to allow building Apache on IBM's |
| 1766 | IA64 version of AIX. [Paul Reder] |
| 1767 | |
| 1768 | *) NameVirtualHost can now take "*" as an argument instead of |
| 1769 | an IP address. This allows you to create a purely name-based |
| 1770 | virtual hosting server that does not have any IP addresses in |
| 1771 | the configuration file and which ignores the local address |

| 1787 | |
| 1788 | *) Use "accept filtering" on recent versions of FreeBSD iff the |

| 1800 | [Victor J. Orlikowski] PR#6015 |
| 1801 | |
| 1802 | *) Correct the problem where the only local host name that the IP stack |
| 1803 | can discover are 'undotted' private names. If no fully qualified |
| 1804 | domain name can be identified, the default ServerName will be set to |
| 1805 | the machine's IP address string. A warning is provided if Apache has |
| 1806 | to assume the IP dotted address string or the localhost/loopback |
| 1807 | address as the ServerName. The default ServerName is removed from |
| 1808 | the default Win32 httpd.conf file. [William Rowe] |
| 1809 | |
| 1810 | *) Add new directives RemoveType and RemoveEncoding to accompany the |
| 1811 | RemoveHandler directive added in 1.3.4. AddType, AddEncoding, and |
| 1812 | AddHandler now all have corresponding 'undo' directives. This allows |
| 1813 | things like marking foo.tar.gz.asc as *not* being gzipped, so it will be |
| 1814 | correctly interpreted as an unzipped signature of a gzipped file. |
| 1815 | [Ken Coar] |
| 1816 | |
| 1817 | *) Win32 NT and 2000 services now capture stderr messages that occur |
| 1818 | before Apache's logs are opened to the Application Event Log. |
| 1819 | Console and Win9x services now hold the console open for 30 seconds |
| 1820 | (and may be dismissed with the <ESC> key) if they exit with an error. |
| 1821 | [William Rowe] |
| 1822 | |
| 1823 | *) Expand Win32 protection for pathname length, to provide protection |
| 1824 | from future potential bugs such as that which caused directory index |
| 1825 | to be displayed rather than returning an error. |

| 1846 | [Tony Finch] |
| 1847 | |
| 1848 | *) Under Win32, The console input mode is fixed to ignore mouse events |
| 1849 | and always listen for a Ctrl+C interrupt, even if the console window |
| 1850 | defaults to another mode. [William Rowe] |
| 1851 | |
| 1852 | *) All Win32 services will now perform a graceful restart when given |
| 1853 | the -n servicename -k restart signal. No equivilant control exists |
| 1854 | in the service control panel applet or through the NET command. |
| 1855 | There is no useful acknowledgement on Windows 95/98, however. |

| 1861 | [Andrew Braund <abraund dingoblue.net.au>, William Rowe] |
| 1862 | |
| 1863 | *) Add 'services' for Windows 95 and 98, including install/uninstall |
| 1864 | options. The Apache server therefore can start when the OS loads, |
| 1865 | and will not stop between logoffs. This implementation remains |
| 1866 | -HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL-. Additional changes provide for clean shutdown |

| 1944 | and libprews.c instead. These files implement the NLM startup code |
| 1945 | for shared NLMs (DSOs). The result of using these files is less |
| 1946 | obtrusive code, faster load times, and a smaller executable size. |
| 1947 | libprews.c contains WSAStartup and WSACleanup WinSock calls needed for |
| 1948 | initialization and termination of DSO modules. |

| 2006 | |
| 2007 | *) Various fixes to mod_auth_digest: |
| 2008 | - Reworked MD5-sess stuff. The semantics of userpw_hash() have been |
| 2009 | changed for it to return |
| 2010 | MD5(MD5(username ":" realm ":" password) ":" nonce ":" cnonce) |
| 2011 | instead of just |
| 2012 | MD5(username ":" realm ":" password) |
| 2013 | because one of the points of MD5-sess is to allow the info to be |
| 2014 | retrieved from login servers so that the server itself never has |
| 2015 | the full auth info (after all, MD5(u/r/p) is equivalent to the |
| 2016 | password for auth purposes). |
| 2017 | - In order to allow for servers to share a realm the server-name |
| 2018 | and port have been removed from the nonce-hash. Even so, sharing |
| 2019 | the realm has problems - see the new comments at the beginning. |
| 2020 | - Fixed uri-comparison when request-uri isn't identical to uri in |
| 2021 | Authorization header (some fields were not being initialized). |
| 2022 | - Handle non-FQDN's (i.e. simple hostnames) in uri parameter in |
| 2023 | the Authorization header. Thanks to Joe Orton |
| 2024 | <joe orton.demon.co.uk> for pointing out the problem. |

| 2027 | *) Add case_preserved_filename field to the request_rec structure. |
| 2028 | On systems with case insensitive file systems (Windows, OS/2, etc.), |
| 2029 | r->filename is case canonicalized (folded to either lower or upper |
| 2030 | case, depending on the specific system) to accomodate file access |
| 2031 | checking. case_preserved_filename is the same as r->filename |
| 2032 | except case is preserved. There is at least one instance where Apache |
| 2033 | needs access to the case preserved filename: Java class files published |
| 2034 | with WebDAV need to preserve filename case to make the Java compiler |
| 2035 | happy. [Bill Stoddard] |

| 2513 | |
| 2514 | *) For binary builds, add -R flag to apachectl to work around the lack of |

| 2521 | |
| 2522 | *) Fix (re)naming in the uuencode/decode section. The ap/ap_ |
| 2523 | routines are now called ap_base64* and are 'plain' (i.e., no |
| 2524 | pool access or anything clever). Inside util.c the routines acting |
| 2525 | like pstrdup are called ap_pbase64encode() and ap_pbase64decode(). |
| 2526 | The oddly named ap_uuencode(), ap_uudecode() are kept around for |
| 2527 | now but deprecated. [dirkx] |

| 2547 | |
| 2548 | *) For "some" platforms (notably, EBCDIC based ones), libos needs to be |
| 2549 | searched only AFTER libap has been searched, because libap needs |

| 2551 | |
| 2552 | *) Fix conflict with original mod_digest related to the symbol of the |
| 2553 | module dispatch list (which has to be unique for DSO and follow the |
| 2554 | usual conventions for the installation procedure). |
| 2555 | [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| 2556 | |
| 2557 | *) Add a dbm-library check for the "usual places" (-ldbm, -lndbm, -ldb) |

| 2559 | |
| 2560 | *) Make ap_sha1.c compile for EBCDIC platforms: replace remaining LONG |

| 2563 | |
| 2564 | Changes with Apache 1.3.8 [not released] |
| 2565 | |
| 2566 | *) Flush the output buffer immediately after sending an error or redirect |

| 2594 | Netscape servers. See support/SHA1 for more information. |
| 2595 | Caused the separation of ap_md5.c into md5, sha1 and a general |
| 2596 | ap_checkpass.c with just a validate_passwd routine. Added a |
| 2597 | couple of flags to support/htpasswd. Some reuse of the to64() |
| 2598 | function; hence renamed to ap_to64(). |
| 2599 | [Dirk-Willem van Gulik, Clinton Wong <clintdw netcom.com>] |
| 2600 | |

| 2604 | |
| 2605 | *) Get rid of redefinition warning on MAC_OS_X_SERVER platform. |
| 2606 | Change "Power Macintosh" to Power* so if uname prints "Power Book" |
| 2607 | we're still happy on Rhapsody platforms. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| 2608 | |
| 2609 | *) Fix SIGSEGV on some systems because the Vary fix below included |
| 2610 | a call to table_do with a variable argument list that was not |
| 2611 | NULL terminated. Replaced with better implementation. [Roy Fielding] |
| 2612 | |
| 2613 | Changes with Apache 1.3.7 [not released] |
| 2614 | |
| 2615 | *) The "Vary" response header field is now sanitised right before |
| 2616 | the header is sent back to the client. Multiple "Vary" fields |
| 2617 | are combined, and duplicate tokens (e.g., "Vary: host, host" or |
| 2618 | "Vary: host, negotiate, host, accept-language") are reduced to |
| 2619 | single instances. This is a better solution than the force-no-vary |
| 2620 | one (which is still valid for clients that can't cope with Vary |
| 2621 | at all). [Dean Gaudet, Roy Fielding, Ken Coar] PR#3118 |
| 2622 | |
| 2623 | *) Portability changes for BeOS. [David Reid <abb37 dial.pipex.com>] |
| 2624 | |
| 2625 | *) Link DSO's with "gcc -shared" instead of "ld -Bshareable" at |
| 2626 | least on Linux and FreeBSD for now. |
| 2627 | [Rasmus Lerdorf] |
| 2628 | |
| 2629 | *) Win32: More apache -k restart work. Restarts are now honored |
| 2630 | immediately and connections in the listen queue are -not- lost. |
| 2631 | This is made possible by the use of the WSADuplicateSocket() |
| 2632 | call. The listeners are opened in the parent, duplicated, then |
| 2633 | the duplicates are passed to the child. The original listen sockets |
| 2634 | are not closed by the parent across a restart, thus the listen queue |
| 2635 | is preserved. |
| 2636 | [Bill Stoddard <stoddard raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| 2637 | |
| 2638 | *) Fix handling of case when a client has sent "Expect: 100-continue" |
| 2639 | and we are going to respond with an error, but get stuck waiting to |
| 2640 | discard the body in the pointless hope of preserving the connection. |
| 2641 | [Roy Fielding, Joe Orton <jeo101 york.ac.uk>] PR#4499, PR#3806 |
| 2642 | |
| 2643 | *) Fix 'configure' to work correctly with SysV-based versions of |
| 2644 | 'tr' (consistent with Configure's use as well). [Jim Jagielski] |
| 2645 | |
| 2646 | *) apxs: Add "-S var=val" option which allows for override of CFG_* |
| 2647 | built-in values. Add "-e" option which works like -i but doesn't |
| 2648 | install the DSO; useful for editing httpd.conf with apxs. Fix |
| 2649 | editing code so that multiple invocations of apxs -a will not |
| 2650 | create duplicate LoadModule/AddModule entries; apxs can now be |
| 2651 | used to re- enable/disable a module. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| 2652 | |
| 2653 | *) Win32: Update the server to use Winsock 2. Specifically, link with |
| 2654 | ws2_32.lib rather than wsock32.lib. This gives us access to |
| 2655 | WSADuplcateSocket() in addition to some other enhanced comm APIs. |
| 2656 | Win 95 users may need to update their TCP/IP stack to pick up |
| 2657 | Winsock 2. (See http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads/) |
| 2658 | [Bill Stoddard <stoddard raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| 2659 | |
| 2660 | *) Win32: Redirect CGI script stderr (script debug info) into the |
| 2661 | error.log when CGI scripts fail. This makes Apache on Win32 |
| 2662 | behave more like Unix. |
| 2663 | [Bill Stoddard <stoddard raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| 2664 | |
| 2665 | *) Fixed `httpd' usage display: -D was missing. |

| 2673 | [Brian Havard] PR#4505 |
| 2674 | |
| 2675 | *) Add DSO support for DGUX 4.x using gcc. Tested on x86 platforms. |
| 2676 | [Randy Terbush <randy covalent.net>] |
| 2677 | |
| 2678 | *) Add the new mass-vhost module (mod_vhost_alias.c) developed and |
| 2679 | used by Demon Internet, Ltd. [Tony Finch <fanf demon.net>] |
| 2680 | |
| 2681 | *) Better GCC detection for DSO flags under Solaris 2 where the `cc' |
| 2682 | command potentially _is_ GCC. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| 2683 | |
| 2684 | *) Fix apxs build issues on AIX |
| 2685 | [Rasmus Lerdorf <rasmus raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| 2686 | |
| 2687 | *) DocumentRoot Checking: Under previous versions, when Apache |
| 2688 | first started up, it used to do a stat of each DocumentRoot to |
| 2689 | see if it existed and was a directory. If not, then an error |
| 2690 | message was printed. THIS HAS BEEN DISABLED. If DocumentRoot |
| 2691 | does not exist, you will get error messages in error_log. If |
| 2692 | the '-t' command line option is used (to check the configuration) |
| 2693 | the check of DocumentRoot IS performed. An additional command |
| 2694 | line option, '-T', has been added if you want to avoid the |
| 2695 | DocumentRoot check even when checking the configuration. |
| 2696 | [Jim Jagielski] |
| 2697 | |
| 2698 | *) Win32: The query switch "apache -S" didn't exit after showing the |
| 2699 | vhost settings. That was inconsistent with the other query functions. |
| 2700 | [Bill Stoddard - Fixed by Martin on Unix in 1.3.4] |
| 2701 | |
| 2702 | *) Win32: Changed behaviour of apache -k restart. |
| 2703 | Previously, the server would drain all connections in the stack's |
| 2704 | listen queue before honoring the restart. On a busy server, this |
| 2705 | could take hours. Now, a restart is honored almost immediately. |
