Revision history for Perl extension Convert::UUlib. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
- oh my I can write ugly code in a hurry. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
1.08 Sat Dec 16 23:27:13 CET 2006 |
| 6 |
- URGENT update, the last release did not |
| 7 |
decode files correctly, usually not at all. |
| 8 |
- my last patch was, of course, completly bogus. |
| 9 |
(sorry. looked simple...). |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
1.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006 |
| 12 |
- fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis |
| 13 |
and patch by Mark Martinec. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
1.06 Tue Dec 6 00:56:05 CET 2005 |
| 16 |
- fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and |
| 17 |
fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance, |
| 18 |
reported by Jonas Smedegaard. |
| 19 |
- new EXPERIMENTAL options OPT_RBUF and OPT_WBUF to set default |
| 20 |
stdio buffer size for reading and writing files. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
1.051 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005 |
| 23 |
- change of contact address. |
| 24 |
- updated perl parts to GPLv2. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
1.05 Fri Feb 25 22:50:27 CET 2005 |
| 27 |
- fix a (likely exploitable) segfault problem, (tracked down |
| 28 |
and/or reported by Mark Martinec and Robert Lewis). |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
1.04 Tue Dec 28 15:08:44 CET 2004 |
| 31 |
- slightly improved subject filename extraction. |
| 32 |
Also see the filename callback in the example-decoder. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
1.03 Sun Apr 18 22:05:43 CEST 2004 |
| 35 |
- upgrade to uudeview-0.5.20, which supposedly fixes a few buffer |
| 36 |
overflows. However, judging from the patch these vulnerabilities |
| 37 |
were not present in the Convert-UUlib version (I might err, though, |
| 38 |
documentation on the actual exploits is scarce). |
| 39 |
As every uudeview update usually brings more instability than stability |
| 40 |
I advise against using this version until it has proven itself |
| 41 |
to be stable, or 1.02 is proven to contain the same buffer overflows. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
1.02 Sun Apr 18 16:47:26 CEST 2004 |
| 44 |
- renamed crc32 to uulib_crc32, to work around yet another |
| 45 |
shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
1.01 Sun Feb 1 19:49:51 CET 2004 |
| 48 |
- make it compile with 5.005_03 (reported by Anton Berezin). |
| 49 |
- very short files might not be detected because the header |
| 50 |
parsing code might skip them. |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
1.0 Thu Nov 6 14:32:08 CET 2003 |
| 53 |
- change bracket policy to give priority to (x/y) over (x), |
| 54 |
and use the last bracket found otherwise. |
| 55 |
- part numbers at the end of the subject are now recognized. |
| 56 |
- updated to uulib-0.5.19. Differences and bugfixes kept. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
0.31 Wed Oct 16 01:22:34 CEST 2002 |
| 59 |
- no internal code changes. |
| 60 |
- much better documentation, now considered "useful". |
| 61 |
- removed the procedural interface. |
| 62 |
- fought the wish to perl-5.8'ify and thus simplify the code :(). |
| 63 |
- stress-tested version 0.3 against 70000 data postings since sunday. |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
0.3 Sun Oct 13 15:12:11 CEST 2002 |
| 66 |
- updated to uulib 0.5.18. As expected, some but not all of my bugfixes |
| 67 |
have went into uulib, so the number of differences decreased a bit |
| 68 |
again. |
| 69 |
- I found out that the library is being sold commercially by Frank |
| 70 |
Pilhofer, disregarding the GPL and ignoring the rights of the people |
| 71 |
who sent in patches :( |
| 72 |
- vastly more useful documentation in the .pm file. |
| 73 |
- much smaller distribution filesize ;) |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
0.213 Sat Jul 27 21:16:30 CEST 2002 |
| 76 |
- fixed another buffer overflow, also added a santity check to fgets. |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
0.212 Sat Apr 6 03:52:13 CEST 2002 |
| 79 |
- fix yEnc decoding support. |
| 80 |
- new option OPT_DOTDOT, that makes uulib unescape dot-escaping. |
| 81 |
- increased linelength to 1195. |
| 82 |
|
| 83 |
0.211 Fri Apr 5 23:56:46 CEST 2002 |
| 84 |
- *sigh*. new version of uulib, new braindamaged buffer overflows |
| 85 |
fixed. Diffs like "line length 256 => 300" should have |
| 86 |
alerted me... |
| 87 |
|
| 88 |
0.21 Sun Mar 31 22:06:05 CEST 2002 |
| 89 |
- bumped uulib from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17 (adds some yEnc support, YENC_ENCODED). |
| 90 |
- source-renamed FP_*-symbols to _FP_* again, but still define them |
| 91 |
to be FP_* in the object file. |
| 92 |
- new callback: SetFileNameCallback (actually documented ;) |
| 93 |
|
| 94 |
0.201 Sun Sep 16 03:43:38 CEST 2001 |
| 95 |
- fixed another segfault-bug in uulib, thanks to Lars Hecking who |
| 96 |
provides all the test files ;) |
| 97 |
|
| 98 |
0.2 Thu Jun 14 18:42:49 CEST 2001 |
| 99 |
- Frank Pilhofer is NOT dead! He is alive, kicking, and fixing |
| 100 |
bugs in uulib now! Since his uulib and mine diverged quite |
| 101 |
a bit I am still in the process of merging his bugfixes |
| 102 |
into my version. So be aware that this might introduce new |
| 103 |
instabilities... |
| 104 |
- merged uulib-0.5.15 |
| 105 |
- optimize decode_file to not copy the file contents when a rename |
| 106 |
succeeds (TMPDIR same disk as destination). |
| 107 |
- updated documentation. |
| 108 |
|
| 109 |
0.111 Fri May 4 22:29:09 CEST 2001 |
| 110 |
- heuristic to decode microsoft-rfc822-headers (microsoft uses |
| 111 |
'\' as path seperator which is also the rfc822 quote character. |
| 112 |
of course they could have quoted it, but it's microsoft, so |
| 113 |
only the devil knows how they try to parse mime (they obviously |
| 114 |
haven't read the standard AGAIN). in case you wonder, this fixes |
| 115 |
the "c:my_documentssend.doc" "filename" problem. |
| 116 |
|
| 117 |
0.11 Sun Jul 16 22:42:57 CEST 2000 |
| 118 |
- fixed a bug in the file callback. |
| 119 |
|
| 120 |
0.10 Tue May 2 03:31:09 CEST 2000 |
| 121 |
- fixed one very longstanding bug that might have been the cause |
| 122 |
for the many mysterious segmentation faults. Hopefully. |
| 123 |
- improved documentation to the point that it slowly becomes useful |
| 124 |
as a (very quick) reference. |
| 125 |
|
| 126 |
0.07 Wed Nov 24 18:45:23 CET 1999 |
| 127 |
- removed END { CleanUp } from UUlib.pm, perl is too |
| 128 |
buggy to rely on this in the face of popen etc.. |
| 129 |
|
| 130 |
0.06 Thu Jul 29 22:48:18 CEST 1999 |
| 131 |
- Thierry Bezecourt had the very reasonable idea to include |
| 132 |
the example source in the manpage. |
| 133 |
|
| 134 |
0.05 Mon May 24 11:37:25 CEST 1999 |
| 135 |
- LoadFile returns number of parts loaded. |
| 136 |
|
| 137 |
0.04 Mon May 10 22:02:31 CEST 1999 |
| 138 |
- fixed a couple of portability problems. |
| 139 |
- UUEncodeToStream had a wrong definition. |
| 140 |
- added primitive testsuite. |
| 141 |
- added README. |
| 142 |
|
| 143 |
0.03 Sat May 8 22:40:01 CEST 1999 |
| 144 |
- renamed it to Convert::UUlib. |
| 145 |
|
| 146 |
0.02 Fri May 7 01:26:19 CEST 1999 |
| 147 |
- function names exportable (use :all-tag). |
| 148 |
- made uulist-related functions methods. |
| 149 |
- the first fix from cpan-tester. *sigh* you people save the |
| 150 |
world, continuously. |
| 151 |
|
| 152 |
0.01 Thu May 6 14:30:44 1999 |
| 153 |
- original version; created by h2xs 1.19 |
| 154 |
|
