12 - shared references were not decoded correctly: instead of getting
13 multiple references to the same object, you got the same
14 reference to the same object, causing a number of issues. For
15 example, modifying the reference would modify all places the
16 reference was used, and encoding the decoded structure would
17 unshare the previously shared hashes, as trheir reference count
18 would be 1. Fixing this was rather involved, as perl lacks the
19 ability to easily swap or copy arrays and hashes.
20 - \0, \1, \undef do not work, and were not intended to ever work, as
21 special values, despite being mentioned in the documentation (reported
22 by nuclightq).
23 - new feature: allow_weak_cycles.
24
251.86 Thu 04 Nov 2021 17:48:16 CET
26 - fixed a wrong printf format specifier (reported by Petr Písař).

281.85 Sat 23 Oct 2021 04:59:56 CEST
29 - left debugging printf in code, need a test for that :(
30
311.84 Thu 21 Oct 2021 03:11:52 CEST
32 - fix a bug in validate_utf8 where we call perl's is_utf8_string with
33 a lenght of zero for empty strings, but perl interprets that as
34 "calculate length", causing spurious validation errors for
35 empty strings.
36 - include validate_utf8 in new_safe.
37 - avoid some warnings.

391.83 Tue Dec 8 09:27:06 CET 2020
40 - add CBOR::XS::as_map cast function.
41
421.82 Tue Dec 1 02:47:40 CET 2020
43 - add CBOR::XS::as_bool cast function.
44
451.81 Mon Nov 30 19:29:33 CET 2020
46 - cast functions were broken due to last-minute renaming. thats
47 what you get for not having a tessuite.
48 - Math::BigInt and Math::BigFloat are pretty broken (again),
49 so disable some tests. (try printing the bigfloat
50 799999999999999999998E99999999999999999998).
51
521.8 Sun Nov 29 22:35:13 CET 2020
53 - experimental support for some type casts, as well as embedding
54 raw cbor data.
55
561.71 Thu Nov 15 20:52:13 CET 2018
57 - work around what smells like a perl bug w.r.t. exceptions
58 thrown in callbacks.
59 - update libecb.
60
611.7 Tue Jun 27 04:02:23 CEST 2017
62 - SECURITY FIX: fix two bugs found by american fuzzy lop,
63 upgrade is advised if you accept data from untrusted
64 sources.
65 - an out-of bound sharedref or stringref index could cause an
66 out of bounds access - might be exploitable.
67 - a decoding error during indefinite array or hash decoding
68 could cause an endless loop.
69
701.6 Wed Dec 7 15:13:23 CET 2016
71 - greatly expand the SECURITY IMPLICATIONS and similar sections.
72 - new constructor new_safe, to create a secure CBOR::XS object.
73 - new option forbid_objects, to disallow serialisation.
74 - new CBOR::XS::safe_filter functionality.
13 - fix a crash when decoding a cyclic data structure using 75 - fix a crash when decoding a cyclic data structure using
14 stringref/pack_strings when allow_cycles is disabled. 76 stringref/pack_strings when allow_cycles is disabled.
15 - fix a crash when decoding hash keys with length >= 2**31. 77 - fix a crash when decoding hash keys with length >= 2**31.
16 - avoid unreasonably long decoding times for certain 78 - avoid unreasonably long decoding times for certain
17 types of data corruption. 79 types of (corrupt) cbor texts.
18 - support arrays and hashes with >= 2**31 members. 80 - support arrays and hashes with >= 2**31 members.
19 - avoid overflow on pointer arithmetic when checking whether enough 81 - avoid overflow on pointer arithmetic when checking whether enough
20 data is available. 82 data is available.
21 - fix a memory leak that occured when decoding failed while decoding 83 - fix a memory leak that occured when decoding failed while decoding
22 a tagged value. 84 a tagged value.
85 - do not leak the partially constructed result when stringifying
86 a hash key throws an exception.
87 - various code size and efficiency optimizations (reduced code
88 from 42 to 40kB on my system, despite the new features).
