9 - the Math::BigFloat maintainer apparently thinks that changing 12 - cast funbctions were broken due to last-minute renaming. thats
10 documented maths function to suddenly yield different results or 13 what you egt for not havign a tessuite.
11 to fail completely on valid input is cool. Try to work around 14 - Math::BigInt and Math::BigFloat are pretty broken (again),
12 this madness - if Math::BigFloat changes its API too much, 15 so disable some tests. (try printing the bigfloat
13 future versions will have to remove support for bignums 16 799999999999999999998E99999999999999999998).

181.8 Sun Nov 29 22:35:13 CET 2020
19 - experimental support for some type casts, as well as embedding
20 raw cbor data.
21
221.71 Thu Nov 15 20:52:13 CET 2018
23 - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions
24 thrown in callbacks.
25 - update libecb.

271.7 Tue Jun 27 04:02:23 CEST 2017
28 - SECURITY FIX: fix two bugs found by american fuzzy lop,
29 upgrade is advised if you accept data from untrusted
30 sources.
31 - an out-of bound sharedref or stringref index could cause an
32 out of bounds access - might be exploitable.
33 - a decoding error during indefinite array or hash decoding
34 could cause an endless loop.
35
361.6 Wed Dec 7 15:13:23 CET 2016
37 - greatly expand the SECURITY IMPLICATIONS and similar sections.
38 - new constructor new_safe, to create a secure CBOR::XS object.
39 - new option forbid_objects, to disallow serialisation.
40 - new CBOR::XS::safe_filter functionality.
41 - fix a crash when decoding a cyclic data structure using
42 stringref/pack_strings when allow_cycles is disabled.
43 - fix a crash when decoding hash keys with length >= 2**31.
44 - avoid unreasonably long decoding times for certain
45 types of (corrupt) cbor texts.
46 - support arrays and hashes with >= 2**31 members.
47 - avoid overflow on pointer arithmetic when checking whether enough
48 data is available.
49 - fix a memory leak that occured when decoding failed while decoding
50 a tagged value.
51 - do not leak the partially constructed result when stringifying
52 a hash key throws an exception.
53 - various code size and efficiency optimizations (reduced code
54 from 42 to 40kB on my system, despite the new features).
55
561.5 Wed Apr 27 11:38:39 CEST 2016
57 - Math::BigFloat madness workaround, see
58 http://blog.schmorp.de/2016-04-23-mathbigfloat-maintainer-fail.html
14 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net). 59 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net).
60 - add text_keys and text_strings options to force CBOR text encoding
61 for perl hash keys or all strings, as a result of discussions
62 with Fredrik Ljunggren.
63 - implement support for arbitrary-exponent numbers (see
64 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/bigfrac.html, tags 264 and 265)
65 for both en- and decoding.
66 - implement support for rational numbers (see
67 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/rational.html, tag 30) for both
68 en- and decoding.
69 - the above effectively implements all registered CBOR extensions
70 in a sensible manner.
15 - remove some weird dead code that was duplication (%FILTER). 71 - remove some weird dead code that was duplicated (%FILTER).
16 - add t/58_hv.t, which tests hashes and the new text_* flags. 72 - add t/58_hv.t, which tests hashes and the new text_* flags.
17 hashes apparently were not encoded at all in any of the previous 73 hashes apparently were not encoded at all in any of the existing
18 tests. 74 tests.
75 - document Math::BigFloat base-2 performance/crash issues.
76 - use stability canary.

201.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016 781.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
21 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by 79 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
22 Victor Efimov). 80 Victor Efimov).
