9 - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions
10 thrown in callbacks.
11 - update libecb.

14 - SECURITY FIX: fix two bugs found by american fuzzy lop,
15 upgrade is advised if you accept data from untrusted
16 sources.
17 - an out-of bound sharedref or stringref index could cause an
18 out of bounds access - might be exploitable.
19 - a decoding error during indefinite array or hash decoding
20 could cause an endless loop.

221.6 Wed Dec 7 15:13:23 CET 2016
23 - greatly expand the SECURITY IMPLICATIONS and similar sections.
24 - new constructor new_safe, to create a secure CBOR::XS object.
25 - new option forbid_objects, to disallow serialisation.
26 - new CBOR::XS::safe_filter functionality.
27 - fix a crash when decoding a cyclic data structure using
28 stringref/pack_strings when allow_cycles is disabled.
29 - fix a crash when decoding hash keys with length >= 2**31.
30 - avoid unreasonably long decoding times for certain
31 types of (corrupt) cbor texts.
32 - support arrays and hashes with >= 2**31 members.
33 - avoid overflow on pointer arithmetic when checking whether enough
34 data is available.
35 - fix a memory leak that occured when decoding failed while decoding
36 a tagged value.
37 - do not leak the partially constructed result when stringifying
38 a hash key throws an exception.
39 - various code size and efficiency optimizations (reduced code
40 from 42 to 40kB on my system, despite the new features).
41
421.5 Wed Apr 27 11:38:39 CEST 2016
43 - Math::BigFloat madness workaround, see
44 http://blog.schmorp.de/2016-04-23-mathbigfloat-maintainer-fail.html
45 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net).
46 - add text_keys and text_strings options to force CBOR text encoding
47 for perl hash keys or all strings, as a result of discussions
48 with Fredrik Ljunggren.
49 - implement support for arbitrary-exponent numbers (see
50 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/bigfrac.html, tags 264 and 265)
51 for both en- and decoding.
52 - implement support for rational numbers (see
53 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/rational.html, tag 30) for both
54 en- and decoding.
55 - the above effectively implements all registered CBOR extensions
56 in a sensible manner.
57 - remove some weird dead code that was duplicated (%FILTER).
58 - add t/58_hv.t, which tests hashes and the new text_* flags.
59 hashes apparently were not encoded at all in any of the existing
60 tests.
61 - document Math::BigFloat base-2 performance/crash issues.
62 - use stability canary.
63
641.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
65 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
66 Victor Efimov).
67
681.4 Mon Feb 8 05:10:15 CET 2016
69 - buffer overflow fix: a fast path during decoding did not check
70 remaining length when decoding hash keys, found by fuzzing.
71 This can potentially leak information in the error message
72 or crash the process.
73 - use C style { 0 } struct initializer.
74 - upgrade libecb.
75
761.3 Mon Apr 27 22:21:04 CEST 2015
77 - the incremental parser didn't properly parse tagged values
78 (testcase by Mons Anderson).
79 - slightly speed up encoding of plain (nonmagical) arrays.
80 - try to clarify further that effectively all 32 bit architectures
81 have 64 bit integer support.
82 - upgrade libecb.

71.26 Sat Oct 25 08:35:44 CEST 2014 841.26 Sat Oct 25 08:35:44 CEST 2014
8 - update the t/57_incr.t subtest that would rely on 64 bit ints. 85 - update the t/57_incr.t subtest that would rely on 64 bit ints.
9 - disable t/50_rfc.t test that fails because of broken data::dumper. 86 - disable t/50_rfc.t test that fails because of broken data::dumper.
