# Line 1 | Line 1
1 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.31 (2020-05-03)
2 + o) macOS compatibility fixes
3 + o) Removed 'spoof_notice' from auth::flags. With vhosts now this notice doesn't make
4 +   much sense anymore
5 + o) Fixed issue where ban masks might become malformed if set by remote clients/servers
6 + o) Fixed issue with channel mode +c where high ascii characters can be erroneously
7 +   detected as control characters
8 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/JfsmV
9 +
10 +
11 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.30 (2020-03-01)
12 + o) "QUOTE HELP extban" didn't work because the extban help file hasn't been
13 +   installed properly during 'make install'
14 + o) Fixed broken libcrypto detection which caused the ircd not to work with
15 +   openssl under certain circumstances
16 + o) Extban $n of type 'acting' has been implemented. This extban prevents
17 +   matching users from changing their nick while in the channel. Users
18 +   with voice or above are not affected.
19 + o) Channel mode +N has been changed so channel members with +v can change
20 +   their nick name as well
21 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/JfOyF
22 +
23 +
24 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.29 (2020-02-19)
25 + o) Extbans have been implemented. Currently supported extbans:
26 +
27 +   Matching:
28 +  
29 +   $a:<account>   Matches users logged into a matching account.
30 +   $c:<channel>   Matches users that are on the given channel. An additional
31 +                  prefix of either @, %, or + can be specified to test for
32 +                  certain channel privileges.
33 +   $o:<class>     Matches IRC operators that have joined a class
34 +                  matching the mask.
35 +   $r:<realname>  Matches users with a matching realname.
36 +   $s:<server>    Matches users that are connected to a server matching the mask.
37 +   $u:<modes>     Matches users having the specified user modes set or not set.
38 +   $z:<certfp>    Matches users having the given TLS certificate fingerprint.
39 +  
40 +   Acting:
41 +  
42 +   $j:<banmask>   Prevents matching users from joining the channel.
43 +   $m:<banmask>   Blocks messages from matching users. Users with voice
44 +                  or above are not affected.
45 +
46 +   For more details, see help/extban.
47 + o) Added 'channel::enable_extbans' configuration option. See doc/reference.conf
48 +   for more information.
49 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/JvgAL
50 +
51 +
52 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.28 (2020-01-26)
53 + o) Fixed issue with topics set by TBURST not being propagated properly to clients
54 + o) Allow IRC operators to search for real hosts in "WHO"
55 + o) Ban/exempt/invex masks are now also tested against realhosts to prevent clients
56 +   from bypassing channel bans by activating a fakehost
57 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/Jv37M
58 +
59 +
60 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.27 (2020-01-22)
61 + o) Experimental support for wolfSSL has been implemented. Minimum supported version is 4.3.0
62 + o) The --enable-openssl, --enable-gnutls switches, and their disabling counterparts
63 +   --disable-openssl and --disable-gnutls, have been replaced with the --with-tls switch
64 +   which takes one of the following options: 'openssl', 'wolfssl', 'gnutls', and 'none'.
65 +   If nothing has been specified, configure tries to autodetect in the following order:
66 +   openssl/libressl -> gnutls -> wolfssl.
67 + o) Fixed segfault with GnuTLS/libgmp in case there's no DH parameters file
68 +   defined in 'serverinfo::ssl_dh_param_file' or if that file is missing
69 + o) The connection timeout for connect{} blocks can now be configured via
70 +   the 'connect::timeout' configuration directive
71 + o) Minimum supported OpenSSL version is 1.1.1 now
72 + o) Minimum supported GnuTLS version is 3.6.5 now
73 + o) Supported TLSv1.3 cipher suites can now be configured explicitely via the
74 +   new 'serverinfo::tls_cipher_suites' configuration directive
75 + o) In the serverinfo {} block, the following configuration directives have been renamed:
76 +     ssl_certificate_file -> tls_certificate_file
77 +     ssl_dh_param_file -> tls_dh_param_file
78 +     ssl_dh_elliptic_curve -> tls_supported_groups
79 +     ssl_cipher_list -> tls_cipher_list
80 +     ssl_message_digest_algorithm -> tls_message_digest_algorithm
81 + o) In the operator {} block, the following configuration directives have been renamed:
82 +     ssl_certificate_fingerprint -> tls_certificate_fingerprint
83 +     ssl_connection_required -> tls_connection_required
84 + o) In the connect {} block, the following configuration directives have been renamed:
85 +     ssl_cipher_list -> tls_cipher_list
86 +     ssl_certificate_fingerprint -> tls_certificate_fingerprint
87 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/Jvq9g
88 +
89 +
90 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.26 (2019-05-31)
91 + o) The 'general::tkline_expire_notices' configuration directive has been
92 +   replaced with user mode 'X'. *LINE expiration notices are sent to IRC
93 +   operators with that mode set
94 + o) Fixed issue with '/rehash conf' creating duplicated class entries
95 +   instead of updating existing ones that are already in use
96 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/fjEbq
97 +
98 +
99 + -- Noteworthy changes in version 8.2.25 (2019-04-24)
100 + o) The 'class::number_per_ip', 'class::max_local' and 'class::max_global'
101 +   configuration directives have been replaced with just 'class::number_per_ip_local'
102 +   and 'class::number_per_ip_global'. The 'class::max_local' basically was
103 +   redundant as it had the same functionality as 'class::number_per_ip'
104 + o) Adding RESVs with wildcards no longer requires administrator privileges
105 + o) The 'general::ignore_bogus_ts' configuration option has been deprecated
106 + o) TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.0 are no longer supported and have been disabled in
107 +   the openssl and gnutls module
108 + o) Minimum supported OpenSSL version is 1.0.1f now
109 + o) Minimum supported GnuTLS version is 3.5.8 now
110 + o) The 'serverinfo::vhost' and 'serverinfo:vhost6' configuration directives have
111 +   been deprecated. If you need to bind() a specific address you can specify one
112 +   in the connect {} block
113 + o) The 'connect::vhost' configuration directive has been renamed to 'connect::bind'
114 + o) For a full list of all changes in this release, see https://git.io/fjRVk
115 +

140 + o) Implemented channel mode 'L'. Channels with that mode set can make use of an
141 +   extended ban list size specified with the new 'channel::max_bans_large'
142 +   configuraton option. This mode can be set only by irc-operators or servers.
143 + o) Implemented channel mode 'u' which hides bmask (+b/+e/+I) lists and mode changes
144 +   to non-chanops everywhere
145 + o) Fixed an issue with "TRACE" where remote servers would reply with RPL_TRACEUSER
146 +   numerics containing UIDs
