9 - fix a crash when decoding a cyclic data structure using
10 stringref/pack_strings when allow_cycles is disabled.

121.5 Wed Apr 27 11:38:39 CEST 2016
13 - Math::BigFloat madness workaround, see
14 http://blog.schmorp.de/2016-04-23-mathbigfloat-maintainer-fail.html
15 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net).
16 - add text_keys and text_strings options to force CBOR text encoding
17 for perl hash keys or all strings, as a result of discussions
18 with Fredrik Ljunggren.
19 - implement support for arbitrary-exponent numbers (see
20 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/bigfrac.html, tags 264 and 265)
21 for both en- and decoding.
22 - implement support for rational numbers (see
23 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/rational.html, tag 30) for both
24 en- and decoding.
25 - the above effectively implements all registered CBOR extensions
26 in a sensible manner.
27 - remove some weird dead code that was duplicated (%FILTER).
28 - add t/58_hv.t, which tests hashes and the new text_* flags.
29 hashes apparently were not encoded at all in any of the existing
30 tests.
31 - document Math::BigFloat base-2 performance/crash issues.
32 - use stability canary.
33
341.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
35 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
36 Victor Efimov).
37
381.4 Mon Feb 8 05:10:15 CET 2016
39 - buffer overflow fix: a fast path during decoding did not check
40 remaining length when decoding hash keys, found by fuzzing.
41 This can potentially leak information in the error message
42 or crash the process.
43 - use C style { 0 } struct initializer.
44 - upgrade libecb.
45
461.3 Mon Apr 27 22:21:04 CEST 2015
47 - the incremental parser didn't properly parse tagged values
48 (testcase by Mons Anderson).
49 - slightly speed up encoding of plain (nonmagical) arrays.
50 - try to clarify further that effectively all 32 bit architectures
51 have 64 bit integer support.
52 - upgrade libecb.
53
541.26 Sat Oct 25 08:35:44 CEST 2014
55 - update the t/57_incr.t subtest that would rely on 64 bit ints.
56 - disable t/50_rfc.t test that fails because of broken data::dumper.
57
581.25 Sun Jan 5 15:19:14 CET 2014
59 - map key decoding was pretty much botched due to the recent cleanups.
60 - work around Time::Piece->epoch returning a string value, avoid encoding
61 this as a tag 1 string.
62 - enable more testcases in t/50_rfc.t, now that they work :)
63
641.2 Tue Dec 10 22:06:42 CET 2013
65 - implement an incremental decoder.
66
671.12 Tue Dec 3 11:23:22 CET 2013
68 - work around broken Time::Piece (in old versions of the module, %z doesn't
69 work as documented, gives different results on different platforms(!)).
70
711.11 Sun Dec 1 18:00:00 CET 2013
72 - new setting: validate_utf8, for when you can't trust your cbor data.
73 - do not leak memory on decoding errors, when allow_cycles is enabled.
74 - add default filters for tags 0 and 1, using Time::Piece.
75 - more tests added.
76
771.1 Sat Nov 30 19:14:27 CET 2013
78 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: new decoder setting: allow_cyclic, needed to decode
79 cyclic data structures (to avoid memleaks in unsuspecting code).
80 - no longer "share" references that aren't, i.e. true/false/null/error/tagged.
81 - fix stringref w.r.t. indefinite-length strings.
82 - verify indefinite-length string chunk types.
83 - do not allow extremely large arrays - assume an array element
84 requires at least one CBOR byte, to avoid memory exhaustion attacks.
85 - major code overhaul.
86
871.0 Thu Nov 28 16:43:31 CET 2013
88 - use the now official tag values for extensions. remove the
89 experimental notice. it's the real thing now, with real bugs.
90 - renamed allow_stringref to pack_strings.
91 - port to perl <= 5.16.
92 - slightly improve the documentation.
93
940.09 Fri Nov 22 16:54:18 CET 2013
95 - bignum/bigfloat/decimal support.
96 - uri support.
97 - tag filter functions support for decoding.
5 - do not support reference-to-1/0/undef anymore, you need to use 98 - do not support reference-to-1/0/undef anymore, you need to use
6 the Types::Serialiser objects now. 99 the Types::Serialiser objects now.
7 - experimental sharable extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/value-sharing). 100 - experimental sharable extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/value-sharing).
8 - experimental stringref extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/stringref). 101 - experimental stringref extension support (http://cbor.schmorp.de/stringref).
9 - implement indirection tag (http://cbor.schmorp.de/indirection). 102 - implement indirection tag (http://cbor.schmorp.de/indirection).
