111.83 Tue Dec 8 09:27:06 CET 2020
12 - add CBOR::XS::as_map cast function.
13
141.82 Tue Dec 1 02:47:40 CET 2020
15 - add CBOR::XS::as_bool cast function.
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
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.
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.
83
841.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
85 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
86 Victor Efimov).
87
881.4 Mon Feb 8 05:10:15 CET 2016
89 - buffer overflow fix: a fast path during decoding did not check
90 remaining length when decoding hash keys, found by fuzzing.
91 This can potentially leak information in the error message
92 or crash the process.
93 - use C style { 0 } struct initializer.
94 - upgrade libecb.
95
961.3 Mon Apr 27 22:21:04 CEST 2015
97 - the incremental parser didn't properly parse tagged values
98 (testcase by Mons Anderson).
7 - slightly speed up encoding of plain (nonmagical) arrays. 99 - slightly speed up encoding of plain (nonmagical) arrays.
100 - try to clarify further that effectively all 32 bit architectures
101 have 64 bit integer support.
102 - upgrade libecb.
8 103
91.26 Sat Oct 25 08:35:44 CEST 2014 1041.26 Sat Oct 25 08:35:44 CEST 2014
10 - update the t/57_incr.t subtest that would rely on 64 bit ints. 105 - update the t/57_incr.t subtest that would rely on 64 bit ints.
11 - disable t/50_rfc.t test that fails because of broken data::dumper. 106 - disable t/50_rfc.t test that fails because of broken data::dumper.
