9 - the Math::BigFloat maintainer apparently thinks that changing 12 - add CBOR::XS::as_map cast function.
10 documented maths function to suddenly yield different results or 13
11 to fail completely on valid input is cool. Try to work around 141.82 Tue Dec 1 02:47:40 CET 2020
12 this madness - if Math::BigFloat changes its API too much, 15 - add CBOR::XS::as_bool cast function.
13 future versions will have to remove support for bignums 16
171.81 Mon Nov 30 19:29:33 CET 2020
18 - cast functions were broken due to last-minute renaming. thats
19 what you get for not having a tessuite.
20 - Math::BigInt and Math::BigFloat are pretty broken (again),
21 so disable some tests. (try printing the bigfloat
22 799999999999999999998E99999999999999999998).
23
241.8 Sun Nov 29 22:35:13 CET 2020
25 - experimental support for some type casts, as well as embedding
26 raw cbor data.
27
281.71 Thu Nov 15 20:52:13 CET 2018
29 - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions
30 thrown in callbacks.
31 - update libecb.
32
331.7 Tue Jun 27 04:02:23 CEST 2017
34 - SECURITY FIX: fix two bugs found by american fuzzy lop,
35 upgrade is advised if you accept data from untrusted
36 sources.
37 - an out-of bound sharedref or stringref index could cause an
38 out of bounds access - might be exploitable.
39 - a decoding error during indefinite array or hash decoding
40 could cause an endless loop.
41
421.6 Wed Dec 7 15:13:23 CET 2016
43 - greatly expand the SECURITY IMPLICATIONS and similar sections.
44 - new constructor new_safe, to create a secure CBOR::XS object.
45 - new option forbid_objects, to disallow serialisation.
46 - new CBOR::XS::safe_filter functionality.
47 - fix a crash when decoding a cyclic data structure using
48 stringref/pack_strings when allow_cycles is disabled.
49 - fix a crash when decoding hash keys with length >= 2**31.
50 - avoid unreasonably long decoding times for certain
51 types of (corrupt) cbor texts.
52 - support arrays and hashes with >= 2**31 members.
53 - avoid overflow on pointer arithmetic when checking whether enough
54 data is available.
55 - fix a memory leak that occured when decoding failed while decoding
56 a tagged value.
57 - do not leak the partially constructed result when stringifying
58 a hash key throws an exception.
59 - various code size and efficiency optimizations (reduced code
60 from 42 to 40kB on my system, despite the new features).
61
621.5 Wed Apr 27 11:38:39 CEST 2016
63 - Math::BigFloat madness workaround, see
64 http://blog.schmorp.de/2016-04-23-mathbigfloat-maintainer-fail.html
14 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net). 65 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net).
66 - add text_keys and text_strings options to force CBOR text encoding
67 for perl hash keys or all strings, as a result of discussions
68 with Fredrik Ljunggren.
69 - implement support for arbitrary-exponent numbers (see
70 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/bigfrac.html, tags 264 and 265)
71 for both en- and decoding.
72 - implement support for rational numbers (see
73 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/rational.html, tag 30) for both
74 en- and decoding.
75 - the above effectively implements all registered CBOR extensions
76 in a sensible manner.
15 - remove some weird dead code that was duplication (%FILTER). 77 - remove some weird dead code that was duplicated (%FILTER).
78 - add t/58_hv.t, which tests hashes and the new text_* flags.
79 hashes apparently were not encoded at all in any of the existing
80 tests.
81 - document Math::BigFloat base-2 performance/crash issues.
82 - use stability canary.

171.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016 841.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
18 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by 85 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
19 Victor Efimov). 86 Victor Efimov).
