|
4 | - fix a heap overflow (testcase by Krzysztof Wojtaś). |
|
|
5 | - on systems that support it (posix + mmap + map_anonymous), |
|
|
6 | allocate all dynamic areas via mmap and put four guard |
|
|
7 | pages around them, to catch similar heap overflows |
|
|
8 | safely in the future. |

|
|
11 | - avoid a classical buffer overflow in case a progress |
|
|
12 | message is too long. |
|
|
13 | - this release adds dependencies for snprintf/vsnprintf. |
|
|
14 | - some uuencode encoders do not generate a final "space" line |
|
|
15 | before the "end" marker, so do not rely on the line to be there. |

|
|
18 | - fix a one-byte-past-end-write buffer overflow in UURepairData |
|
|
19 | (reported, analysed and testcase provided by Marco Walther). |
|
|
20 | - quoted-printable decoding was completely broken, try a fix. |

|
|
23 | - handle yEnc files with part end=0 and total= more gracefully. |
|
|
24 | I wish yEnc had been created by somebody who knows; |
|
|
25 | what he does; |
|
|
26 | but I doubt he even knows; |
|
|
27 | what he did. |

|
|
34 | - do not use system-replacements for case-insensitive string |
|
|
35 | functions when found, as they are broken on too many systems |
|
|
36 | (mostly bsds, as usual, but at least some versions of GNU/Linux |
|
|
37 | disagree with themselves apparently). Analyzed by Anton Berezin. |

40 | - major changes, new bugs and changes in decoding behaviour are |
|
|
41 | expected (but not intended). |
| 3 | - major scanning and decoding speed-up (by a factor of 3), |

43 | by replacing ultra-slow _FP_gets and improving IsKnownHeader |
|

44 | (but fgets is *still* responsible for >50% if the time). |
| 5 | - new option OPT_AUTOCHECK to disable O(n) UUCheckGlobalList |
