2
3 - use the yencode filesize as additional matching criterium
4 to avoid false matches.
5 - made the example decoder more verbose w.r.t. error handling.
6
71.11 Fri Jun 13 15:32:30 CEST 2008
8 - don't ask.
9
101.10 Fri Jun 13 14:22:42 CEST 2008
11 - fix an infinite-looping problem when scanning in freestyle
12 mode (testcase provided by Pieter Geens and Reinhard Pfau).
13
141.09 Fri May 25 19:38:11 CEST 2007
15 - create something sensible, trust a windows program to fuck
16 it up: work around literal "(null)" filenames in yenc-encoded
17 files.
18 - some minor cleanups.
19
201.08 Sat Dec 16 23:27:13 CET 2006
21 - URGENT update, the last release did not
22 decode files correctly, usually not at all.
23 - my last patch was, of course, completely bogus.
24 (sorry. looked simple...).
25
261.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006
27 - fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis
28 and patch by Mark Martinec.
29
301.06 Tue Dec 6 00:56:05 CET 2005
31 - fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and
32 fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance,
33 reported by Jonas Smedegaard.
34 - new EXPERIMENTAL options OPT_RBUF and OPT_WBUF to set default
35 stdio buffer size for reading and writing files.
36
371.051 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
38 - change of contact address.
39 - updated perl parts to GPLv2.
40
411.05 Fri Feb 25 22:50:27 CET 2005
42 - fix a (likely exploitable) segfault problem, (tracked down
43 and/or reported by Mark Martinec and Robert Lewis).
44
451.04 Tue Dec 28 15:08:44 CET 2004
46 - slightly improved subject filename extraction.
47 Also see the filename callback in the example-decoder.
48
491.03 Sun Apr 18 22:05:43 CEST 2004
50 - upgrade to uudeview-0.5.20, which supposedly fixes a few buffer
51 overflows. However, judging from the patch these vulnerabilities
52 were not present in the Convert-UUlib version (I might err, though,
53 documentation on the actual exploits is scarce).
54 As every uudeview update usually brings more instability than stability
55 I advise against using this version until it has proven itself
56 to be stable, or 1.02 is proven to contain the same buffer overflows.
57
581.02 Sun Apr 18 16:47:26 CEST 2004
59 - renamed crc32 to uulib_crc32, to work around yet another
60 shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.
61
621.01 Sun Feb 1 19:49:51 CET 2004
63 - make it compile with 5.005_03 (reported by Anton Berezin).
64 - very short files might not be detected because the header
65 parsing code might skip them.
66
671.0 Thu Nov 6 14:32:08 CET 2003
68 - change bracket policy to give priority to (x/y) over (x),
69 and use the last bracket found otherwise.
70 - part numbers at the end of the subject are now recognized.
71 - updated to uulib-0.5.19. Differences and bugfixes kept.
72
730.31 Wed Oct 16 01:22:34 CEST 2002
74 - no internal code changes.
75 - much better documentation, now considered "useful".
76 - removed the procedural interface.
77 - fought the wish to perl-5.8'ify and thus simplify the code :().
78 - stress-tested version 0.3 against 70000 data postings since sunday.
79
800.3 Sun Oct 13 15:12:11 CEST 2002
81 - updated to uulib 0.5.18. As expected, some but not all of my bugfixes
82 have went into uulib, so the number of differences decreased a bit
83 again.
84 - I found out that the library is being sold commercially by Frank
85 Pilhofer, disregarding the GPL and ignoring the rights of the people
86 who sent in patches :(
87 - vastly more useful documentation in the .pm file.
88 - much smaller distribution filesize ;)
89
900.213 Sat Jul 27 21:16:30 CEST 2002
91 - fixed another buffer overflow, also added a santity check to fgets.

30.212 Sat Apr 6 03:52:13 CEST 2002 930.212 Sat Apr 6 03:52:13 CEST 2002
4 - fix yEnc decoding support. 94 - fix yEnc decoding support.
5 - new option OPT_DOTDOT, that makes uulib unescape dot-escaping. 95 - new option OPT_DOTDOT, that makes uulib unescape dot-escaping.
96 - increased linelength to 1195.

70.211 Fri Apr 5 23:56:46 CEST 2002 980.211 Fri Apr 5 23:56:46 CEST 2002
8 - *sigh*. new version of uulib, new braindamaged buffer overflows. 99 - *sigh*. new version of uulib, new braindamaged buffer overflows
9 I would not use this code in a virus-scanner, despite my efforts
10 to fix uulib. Diffs like "line length 256 => 300" should have 100 fixed. Diffs like "line length 256 => 300" should have
11 alerted me... 101 alerted me...

130.21 Sun Mar 31 22:06:05 CEST 2002 1030.21 Sun Mar 31 22:06:05 CEST 2002
14 - bumped uulib from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17 (adds some yEnc support, YENC_ENCODED). 104 - bumped uulib from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17 (adds some yEnc support, YENC_ENCODED).
15 - source-renamed FP_*-symbols to _FP_* again, but still define them 105 - source-renamed FP_*-symbols to _FP_* again, but still define them
