8TODO: Fredrik Ljunggren, document utf8_strings 11 - avoid some warnings.
9 - the Math::BigFloat maintainer apparently thinks that changing 12
10 documented maths function to suddenly yield different results or 131.83 Tue Dec 8 09:27:06 CET 2020
11 to fail completely on valid input is cool. Try to work around 14 - add CBOR::XS::as_map cast function.
12 this madness - if Math::BigFloat changes its API too much, 15
13 future versions will have to remove support for bignums 161.82 Tue Dec 1 02:47:40 CET 2020
17 - add CBOR::XS::as_bool cast function.
18
191.81 Mon Nov 30 19:29:33 CET 2020
20 - cast functions were broken due to last-minute renaming. thats
21 what you get for not having a tessuite.
22 - Math::BigInt and Math::BigFloat are pretty broken (again),
23 so disable some tests. (try printing the bigfloat
24 799999999999999999998E99999999999999999998).
25
261.8 Sun Nov 29 22:35:13 CET 2020
27 - experimental support for some type casts, as well as embedding
28 raw cbor data.
29
301.71 Thu Nov 15 20:52:13 CET 2018
31 - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions
32 thrown in callbacks.
33 - update libecb.
34
351.7 Tue Jun 27 04:02:23 CEST 2017
36 - SECURITY FIX: fix two bugs found by american fuzzy lop,
37 upgrade is advised if you accept data from untrusted
38 sources.
39 - an out-of bound sharedref or stringref index could cause an
40 out of bounds access - might be exploitable.
41 - a decoding error during indefinite array or hash decoding
42 could cause an endless loop.
43
441.6 Wed Dec 7 15:13:23 CET 2016
45 - greatly expand the SECURITY IMPLICATIONS and similar sections.
46 - new constructor new_safe, to create a secure CBOR::XS object.
47 - new option forbid_objects, to disallow serialisation.
48 - new CBOR::XS::safe_filter functionality.
49 - fix a crash when decoding a cyclic data structure using
50 stringref/pack_strings when allow_cycles is disabled.
51 - fix a crash when decoding hash keys with length >= 2**31.
52 - avoid unreasonably long decoding times for certain
53 types of (corrupt) cbor texts.
54 - support arrays and hashes with >= 2**31 members.
55 - avoid overflow on pointer arithmetic when checking whether enough
56 data is available.
57 - fix a memory leak that occured when decoding failed while decoding
58 a tagged value.
59 - do not leak the partially constructed result when stringifying
60 a hash key throws an exception.
61 - various code size and efficiency optimizations (reduced code
62 from 42 to 40kB on my system, despite the new features).
63
641.5 Wed Apr 27 11:38:39 CEST 2016
65 - Math::BigFloat madness workaround, see
66 http://blog.schmorp.de/2016-04-23-mathbigfloat-maintainer-fail.html
14 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net). 67 (bugreport by zdm@softvisio.net).
68 - add text_keys and text_strings options to force CBOR text encoding
69 for perl hash keys or all strings, as a result of discussions
70 with Fredrik Ljunggren.
71 - implement support for arbitrary-exponent numbers (see
72 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/bigfrac.html, tags 264 and 265)
73 for both en- and decoding.
74 - implement support for rational numbers (see
75 http://peteroupc.github.io/CBOR/rational.html, tag 30) for both
76 en- and decoding.
77 - the above effectively implements all registered CBOR extensions
78 in a sensible manner.
15 - remove some weird dead code that was duplication (%FILTER). 79 - remove some weird dead code that was duplicated (%FILTER).
80 - add t/58_hv.t, which tests hashes and the new text_* flags.
81 hashes apparently were not encoded at all in any of the existing
82 tests.
83 - document Math::BigFloat base-2 performance/crash issues.
84 - use stability canary.
16 85
171.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016 861.41 Thu 25 Feb 15:22:03 CET 2016
18 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by 87 - avoid perl panics on nested FREEZE/THAW calls (testcase by
19 Victor Efimov). 88 Victor Efimov).
