Bump PKGREVISION
|
|
New stuff we've added since 4.95:
- A new ACL condition: seen. Records/tests a timestamp against a key.
- A variant of the "mask" expansion operator to give normalised IPv6.
- UTC output option for exim_dumpdb, exim_fixdb.
- An event for failing TLS connects to the daemon.
- The ACL "debug" control gains options "stop", "pretrigger" and "trigger".
- Query-style lookups are now checked for quoting, if the query string is
built using untrusted data ("tainted"). For now lack of quoting is merely
logged; a future release will upgrade this to an error.
- The expansion conditions match_<list-type> and inlist now set $value for
the expansion of the "true" result of the ${if}. With a static list, this
can be used for de-tainting.
Notable removals since 4.95:
- the "allow_insecure_tainted_data" main config option and the
"taint" log_selector. These were deprecated in the 4.95 release.

Version 4.95
------------
1. The fast-ramp two phase queue run support, previously experimental, is
now supported by default.
2. The native SRS support, previously experimental, is now supported. It is
not built unless specified in the Local/Makefile.
3. TLS resumption support, previously experimental, is now supported and
included in default builds.
4. Single-key LMDB lookups, previously experimental, are now supported.
The support is not built unless specified in the Local/Makefile.
5. Option "message_linelength_limit" on the smtp transport to enforce (by
default) the RFC 998 character limit.
6. An option to ignore the cache on a lookup.
7. Quota checking during reception (i.e. at SMTP time) for appendfile-
transport-managed quotas.
8. Sqlite lookups accept a "file=<path>" option to specify a per-operation
db file, replacing the previous prefix to the SQL string (which had
issues when the SQL used tainted values).
9. Lsearch lookups accept a "ret=full" option, to return both the portion
of the line matching the key, and the remainder.
10. A command-line option to have a daemon not create a notifier socket.
11. Faster TLS startup. When various configuration options contain no
expandable elements, the information can be preloaded and cached rather
than the previous behaviour of always loading at startup time for every
connection. This helps particularly for the CA bundle.
12. Proxy Protocol Timeout is configurable via "proxy_protocol_timeout"
main config option.
13. Option "smtp_accept_max_per_connection" is now expanded.
14. Log selector "queue_size_exclusive", enabled by default, to exclude the
time taken for reception from QT log elements.
15. Main option "smtp_backlog_monitor", to set a level above which listen
socket backlogs are logged.
16. Main option "hosts_require_helo", requiring HELO or EHLO before MAIL.
17. A main config option "allow_insecure_tainted_data" allows to turn
18. TLS ALPN handling. By default, refuse TLS connections that try to specify
a non-smtp (eg. http) use. Options for customising.
19. Support for MacOS (darwin) has been dropped.

This includes a number of serious security fixes (one of which was
included in a now obsoleted pkgsrc patch)
CVE-2020-28016
CVE-2020-BDATA
CVE-2020-EXOPT
CVE-2020-PFPSN
CVE-2020-RCPTL
CVE-2020-SLCWD
CVE-2020-SPRSS
Since Exim version 4.94
-----------------------
JH/02 Bug 2587: Fix pam expansion condition. Tainted values are commonly used
as arguments, so an implementation trying to copy these into a local
buffer was taking a taint-enforcement trap. Fix by using dynamically
created buffers. Similar fix for radius expansion condition.
JH/03 Bug 2586: Fix listcount expansion operator. Using tainted arguments is
reasonable, eg. to count headers. Fix by using dynamically created
buffers rather than a local. Do similar fixes for ACL actions "dcc",
"log_reject_target", "malware" and "spam"; the arguments are expanded
so could be handling tainted values.
JH/04 Bug 2590: Fix -bi (newaliases). A previous code rearrangement had
broken the (no-op) support for this sendmail command. Restore it
to doing nothing, silently, and returning good status.
JH/05 Bug 2593: Fix "vacation" in Exim filter. Previously, when a "once"
record path was given (or the default used) without a leading directory
path, an error occurred on trying to open it. Use the transport's working
directory.
JH/06 Bug 2594: Change the name used for certificate name checks in the smtp
transport. Previously it was the name on the DNS A-record; use instead
the head of the CNAME chain leading there (if there is one). This seems
to align better with RFC 6125.
JH/07 Bug 2597: Fix a resource leak. Using a lookup in obtaining a value for
smtp_accept_max_per_host allocated resources which were not released
when the limit was exceeded. This eventually crashed the daemon. Fix
by adding a relase action in that path.
JH/08 Bug 2598: Fix verify ACL condition. The options for the condition are
expanded; previously using tainted values was rejected. Fix by using
dynamically-created buffers.
JH/10 Bug 2603: Fix coding of string copying to only evaluate arguments once.
Previously a macro used one argument twice; when called with the
argument as an expression having side-effects, incorrect operation
resulted. Use an inlineable function.
JH/11 Bug 2604: Fix request to cutthrough-deliver when a connection is already
held open for a verify callout. Previously this wan not accounted for
and a corrupt onward SMTP conversation resulted.
JH/13 Fix dsearch "subdir" filter to ignore ".". Previously only ".." was
excluded, not matching the documentation.
JH/14 Bug 2606: Fix a segfault in sqlite lookups. When no, or a bad, filename
was given for the sqlite_dbfile a trap resulted.
JH/15 Bug 2620: Fix "spam" ACL condition. Previously, tainted values for the
"name" argument resulted in a trap. There is no reason to disallow such;
this was a coding error.
JH/16 Bug 2615: Fix pause during message reception, on systems that have been
suspended/resumed. The Linux CLOCK_MONOTONIC does not account for time
spent suspended, ignoring the Posix definition. Previously we assumed
it did and a constant offset from real time could be used as a correction.
Change to using the same clock source for the start-of-message and the
post-message next-tick-wait. Also change to using CLOCK_BOOTTIME if it
exists, just to get a clock slightly more aligned to reality.
JH/17 Bug 2295: Fix DKIM signing to always semicolon-terminate. Although the
RFC says it is optional some validators care. The missing char was not
intended but triggered by a line-wrap alignement. Discovery and fix by
Guillaume Outters, hacked on by JH.
JH/18 Bug 2617: Fix a taint trap in parse_fix_phrase(). Previously when the
name being quoted was tainted a trap would be taken. Fix by using
dynamicaly created buffers. The routine could have been called by a
rewrite with the "h" flag, by using the "-F" command-line option, or
by using a "name=" option on a control=submission ACL modifier.
JH/21 Bug 2630: Fix eol-replacement string for the ${readsocket } expansion.
Previously when a whitespace character was specified it was not inserted
after removing the newline.
JH/24 Bug 2634: Fix a taint trap seen on NetBSD: the testing coded for
is_tainted() had an off-by-one error in the overenthusiastic direction.
Find and fix by Gavan. Although NetBSD is not a supported platform for
4.94 this bug could affect other platforms.
JH/24 Bug 2634: Fix a taint trap seen on NetBSD: the testing coded for
is_tainted() had an off-by-one error in the overenthusiastic direction.
Find and fix by Gavan. Although NetBSD is not a supported platform for
4.94 this bug could affect other platforms.
JH/21 Bug 2630: Fix eol-replacement string for the ${readsocket } expansion.
Previously when a whitespace character was specified it was not inserted
after removing the newline.
JH/22 Bug 2265: Force SNI usage for smtp transport DANE'd connections, to be
the domain part of the recipient address. This overrides any tls_sni
option set, which was previously used.
JH/23 Logging: with the +tls_sni log_selector, do not wrap the received SNI
in quotes.
JH/26 Bug 2646: fix a memory usage issue in ldap lookups. Previously, when more
than one server was defined and depending on the platform memory layout
details, an internal consistency trap could be hit while walking the list
of servers.
JH/27 Bug 2648: fix the passing of an authenticator public-name through spool
files. The value is used by the authresults expansion item. Previously
if this was used in a router or transport, a crash could result.
JH/30 Bug 2677: fix matching of long addresses. Since 4.93 a limit of 256 was
applied. This resulted, if any header-line rewrite rules were configured,
in a panic-log trigerrable by sending a message with a long address in
a header. Fix by increaing the arbitrary limit to larger than a single
(dewrapped) 5322 header line maximum size.
JH/31 The ESMTP option name advertised for the SUPPORT_EARLY_PIPE build option
is changed from X_PIPE_CONNECT to PIPE_CONNECT. This is in line with
RFC 6648 which deprecates X- options in protocols as a general practice.
Changeover between the implementations is handled by the mechanisms
alrready coded.
JH/32 Bug 2599: fix delay of delivery to a local address where there is also
a remote which uses callout/hold. Previously the local was queued.
JH/33 Fix a taint trap in the ${listextract } expansion when the source data
was tainted.
JH/35 Bug 2343: Harden exim_tidydb against corrupt wait- files.
JH/36 Bug 2687: Fix interpretation of multiple ^ chars in a plaintext
authenticator client_send option. Previously the next char, after a pair
was collapsed, was taken verbatim (so ^^^foo became ^^foo; ^^^^foo became
^^\x00foo). Fixed to get ^\x00foo and ^^foo respectively to match the
documentation. There is still no way to get a leading ^ immediately
after a NUL (ie. for the password of a PLAIN method authenticator.
JH/39 Bug 2691: fix $local_part_data. When the matching list element
referred to a file, bad data was returned. This likely also affected
$domain_part_data.
JH/41 Fix daemon SIGHUP on FreeBSD. Previously, a named socket for IPC was
left undeleted; the attempt to re-create it then failed - resulting in
the usual "SIGHUP tp have daemon reload configuration" to not work.
This affected any platform not supporting "abstract" Unix-domain
sockets (i.e. not Linux).
JH/42 Bug 2692: Harden against a peer which reneges on a 452 "too many
recipients" response to RCPT in a later response, with a 250. The
previous coding assumed this would not happen, and under PIPELINING
would result in both lost and duplicate recipients for a message.
JH/43 Bug 2694: Fix weighted distribution of work to multiple spamd servers.
Previously the weighting was incorrectly applied. Similar fix for socks
proxies. Found and fixed by Heiko Schlichting.
JH/44 Bug 2701: Fix list-expansion of dns_ipv4_lookup. Previously, it did
not handle sub-lists included using the +namedlist syntax. While
investigating, the same found for dns_trust_aa, dns_again_means_nonexist,
dnssec_require_domains, dnssec_request_domains, srv_fail_domains,
mx_fail_domains.
HS/01 Enforce absolute PID file path name.
HS/02 Handle SIGINT as we handle SIGTERM: terminate the Exim process.
PP/01 Add a too-many-bad-recipients guard to the default config's RCPT ACL.
PP/02 Bug 2643: Correct TLS DH constants.
A missing NUL termination in our code-generation tool had led to some
incorrect Diffie-Hellman constants in the Exim source.
Reported by kylon94, code-gen tool fix by Simon Arlott.
PP/03 Impose security length checks on various command-line options.
Fixes CVE-2020-SPRSS reported by Qualys.
PP/04 Fix Linux security issue CVE-2020-SLCWD and guard against PATH_MAX
better. Reported by Qualys.
PP/05 Fix security issue CVE-2020-PFPSN and guard against cmdline invoker
providing a particularly obnoxious sender full name.
Reported by Qualys.
PP/06 Fix CVE-2020-28016 (PFPZA): Heap out-of-bounds write in parse_fix_phrase()
PP/07 Refuse to allocate too little memory, block negative/zero allocations.
Security guard.
PP/08 Change default for recipients_max from unlimited to 50,000.
PP/09 Fix security issue with too many recipients on a message (to remove a
known security problem if someone does set recipients_max to unlimited,
or if local additions add to the recipient list).
Fixes CVE-2020-RCPTL reported by Qualys.
PP/10 Fix security issue in SMTP verb option parsing
Fixes CVE-2020-EXOPT reported by Qualys.
PP/11 Fix security issue in BDAT state confusion.
Ensure we reset known-good where we know we need to not be reading BDAT
data, as a general case fix, and move the places where we switch to BDAT
mode until after various protocol state checks.
Fixes CVE-2020-BDATA reported by Qualys.
HS/03 Die on "/../" in msglog file names
QS/01 Creation of (database) files in $spool_dir: only uid=0 or the uid of
the Exim runtime user are allowed to create files.
QS/02 PID file creation/deletion: only possible if uid=0 or uid is the Exim
runtime user.
QS/03 When reading the output from interpreted forward files we do not
pass the pipe between the parent and the interpreting process to
executed child processes (if any).
QS/04 Always die if requested from internal logging, even is logging is
disabled.

The check whether a block of memory is tainted erroneously returns true
if the block in question starts the very next byte after a block in the
tainted pool. Depending on the memory allocator, this can cause problems.
For example, on NetBSD/amd64 9.0, this seems to allocate the first tainted
block immediately before log_buffer. This leads to a recursive error in
log_write the first time anything is written to the log, leading to a
segmentation fault when the stack fills up.

Exim version 4.94
-----------------
JH/01 Avoid costly startup code when not strictly needed. This reduces time
for some exim process initialisations. It does mean that the logging
of TLS configuration problems is only done for the daemon startup.
JH/02 Early-pipelining support code is now included unless disabled in Makefile.
JH/03 DKIM verification defaults no long accept sha1 hashes, to conform to
RFC 8301. They can still be enabled, using the dkim_verify_hashes main
option.
JH/04 Support CHUNKING from an smtp transport using a transport_filter, when
DKIM signing is being done. Previously a transport_filter would always
disable CHUNKING, falling back to traditional DATA.
JH/05 Regard command-line receipients as tainted.
JH/06 Bug 340: Remove the daemon pid file on exit, whe due to SIGTERM.
JH/07 Bug 2489: Fix crash in the "pam" expansion condition. It seems that the
PAM library frees one of the arguments given to it, despite the
documentation. Therefore a plain malloc must be used.
JH/08 Bug 2491: Use tainted buffers for the transport smtp context. Previously
on-stack buffers were used, resulting in a taint trap when DSN information
copied from a received message was written into the buffer.
JH/09 Bug 2493: Harden ARC verify against Outlook, whick has been seen to mix
the ordering of its ARC headers. This caused a crash.
JH/10 Bug 2492: Use tainted memory for retry record when needed. Previously when
a new record was being constructed with information from the peer, a trap
was taken.
JH/11 Bug 2494: Unset the default for dmarc_tld_file. Previously a naiive
installation would get error messages from DMARC verify, when it hit the
nonexistent file indicated by the default. Distros wanting DMARC enabled
should both provide the file and set the option.
Also enforce no DMARC verification for command-line sourced messages.
JH/12 Fix an uninitialised flag in early-pipelining. Previously connections
could, depending on the platform, hang at the STARTTLS response.
JH/13 Bug 2498: Reset a counter used for ARC verify before handling another
message on a connection. Previously if one message had ARC headers and
the following one did not, a crash could result when adding an
Authentication-Results: header.
JH/14 Bug 2500: Rewind some of the common-coding in string handling between the
Exim main code and Exim-related utities. The introduction of taint
tracking also did many adjustments to string handling. Since then, eximon
frequently terminated with an assert failure.
JH/15 When PIPELINING, synch after every hundred or so RCPT commands sent and
check for 452 responses. This slightly helps the inefficieny of doing
a large alias-expansion into a recipient-limited target. The max_rcpt
transport option still applies (and at the current default, will override
the new feature). The check is done for either cause of synch, and forces
a fast-retry of all 452'd recipients using a new MAIL FROM on the same
connection. The new facility is not tunable at this time.
JH/16 Fix the variables set by the gsasl authenticator. Previously a pointer to
library live data was being used, so the results became garbage. Make
copies while it is still usable.
JH/17 Logging: when the deliver_time selector ise set, include the DT= field
on delivery deferred (==) and failed (**) lines (if a delivery was
attemtped). Previously it was only on completion (=>) lines.
JH/18 Authentication: the gsasl driver not provides the $authN variables in time
for the expansion of the server_scram_iter and server_scram_salt options.
WB/01 SPF: DNS lookups for the obsolete SPF RR type done by the libspf2 library
are now specifically given a NO_DATA response without hitting the system
resolver. The library goes on to do the now-standard TXT lookup.
Use of dnsdb lookups is not affected.
JH/19 Bug 2507: Modules: on handling a dynamic-module (lookups) open failure,
only retrieve the errormessage once. Previously two calls to dlerror()
were used, and the second one (for mainlog/paniclog) retrieved null
information.
JH/20 Taint checking: disallow use of tainted data for
- the appendfile transport file and directory options
- the pipe transport command
- the autoreply transport file, log and once options
- file names used by the redirect router (including filter files)
- named-queue names
- paths used by single-key lookups
Previously this was permitted.
JH/21 Bug 2501: Fix init call in the heimdal authenticator. Previously it
adjusted the size of a major service buffer; this failed because the
buffer was in use at the time. Change to a compile-time increase in the
buffer size, when this authenticator is compiled into exim.
JH/22 Taint-checking: move to safe-mode taint checking on all platforms. The
previous fast-mode was untenable in the face of glibs using mmap to
support larger malloc requests.
PP/01 Update the openssl_options possible values through OpenSSL 1.1.1c.
New values supported, if defined on system where compiled:
allow_no_dhe_kex, cryptopro_tlsext_bug, enable_middlebox_compat,
no_anti_replay, no_encrypt_then_mac, prioritize_chacha, tlsext_padding
JH/23 Performance improvement in the initial phase of a two-pass queue run. By
running a limited number of proceses in parallel, a benefit is gained. The
amount varies with the platform hardware and load. The use of the option
queue_run_in_order means we cannot do this, as ordering becomes
indeterminate.
JH/24 Bug 2524: fix the cyrus_sasl auth driver gssapi usage. A previous fix
had introduced a string-copy (for ensuring NUL-termination) which was not
appropriate for that case, which can include embedded NUL bytes in the
block of data. Investigation showed the copy to actually be needless, the
data being length-specified.
JH/25 Fix use of concurrent TLS connections under GnuTLS. When a callout was
done during a receiving connection, and both used TLS, global info was
used rather than per-connection info for tracking the state of data
queued for transmission. This could result in a connection hang.
JH/26 Fix use of the SIZE parameter on MAIL commands, on continued connections.
Previously, when delivering serveral messages down a single connection
only the first would provide a SIZE. This was due to the size information
not being properly tracked.
JH/27 Bug 2530: When operating in a timezone with sub-minute offset, such as
TAI (at 37 seconds currently), pretend to be in UTC for time-related
expansion and logging. Previously, spurious values such as a future
minute could be seen.
JH/28 Bug 2533: Fix expansion of ${tr } item. When called in some situations
it could crash from a null-deref. This could also affect the
${addresses: } operator and ${readsock } item.
JH/29 Bug 2537: Fix $mime_part_count. When a single connection had a non-mime
message following a mime one, the variable was not reset.
JH/30 When an pipelined-connect fails at the first response, assume incorrect
cached capability (perhaps the peer reneged?) and immediately retry in
non-pipelined mode.
JH/31 Fix spurious detection of timeout while writing to transport filter.
JH/32 Bug 2541: Fix segfault on bad cmdline -f (sender) argument. Previously
an attempt to copy the string was made before checking it.
JH/33 Fix the dsearch lookup to return an untainted result. Previously the
taint of the lookup key was maintained; we now regard the presence in the
filesystem as sufficient validation.
JH/34 Fix the readsocket expansion to not segfault when an empty "options"
argument is supplied.
JH/35 The dsearch lookup now requires that the directory is an absolute path.
Previously this was not checked, and nonempty relative paths made an
access under Exim's current working directory.
JH/36 Bug 2554: Fix msg:defer event for the hosts_max_try_hardlimit case.
Previously no event was raised.
JH/37 Bug 2552: Fix the check on spool space during reception to use the SIZE
parameter supplied by the sender MAIL FROM command. Previously it was
ignored, and only the check_spool_space option value for the required
leeway checked.
JH/38 Fix $dkim_key_length. This should, after a DKIM verification, present
the size of the signing public-key. Previously it was instead giving
the size of the signature hash.
JH/39 DKIM verification: the RFC 8301 restriction on sizes of RSA keys is now
the default. See the (new) dkim_verify_min_keysizes option.
JH/40 Fix a memory-handling bug: when a connection carried multiple messages
and an ACL use a lookup for checking either the local_part or domain,
stale data could be accessed. Ensure that variable references are
dropped between messages.
JH/41 Bug 2571: Fix SPA authenticator. Running as a server, an offset supplied
by the client was not checked as pointing within response data before
being used. A malicious client could thus cause an out-of-bounds read and
possibly gain authentication. Fix by adding the check.
JH/42 Internationalisation: change the default for downconversion in the smtp
transport to be "if needed". Previously it was "as previously set" for
the message, which usually meant "if needed" for message-submission but
"no" for everything else. However, MTAs have been seen using SMTPUTF8
even when the envelope addresses did not need it, resulting in forwarding
failures to non-supporting MTAs. A downconvert in such cases will be
a no-op on the addresses, merely dropping the use of SMTPUTF8 by the
transport. The change does mean that addresses needing conversion will
be converted when previously a delivery failure would occur.
JH/43 Fix possible long line in DSN. Previously when a very long SMTP error
response was received it would be used unchecked in a fail-DSN, violating
standards on line-length limits. Truncate if needed.
HS/01 Remove parameters of the link to www.open-spf.org. The linked form
doesn't work. (Additionally add a new main config option to configure the
spf_smtp_comment)

By default, pkgsrc uses 'mv -f' as MV_COMMAND. exicyclog is not resilient
to this, and breaks as a result. This patch quotes the command names
that are substituted into this script.

Exim version 4.93+fixes
-----------------------
This is not an official release. It is just a branch, collecting
proposed bugfixes. Depending on your environment the fixes may be
necessary to build and/or run Exim successfully.
JH/05 Regard command-line receipients as tainted.
JH/07 Bug 2489: Fix crash in the "pam" expansion condition. It seems that the
PAM library frees one of the arguments given to it, despite the

Exim version 4.93
-----------------
JH/01 OpenSSL: With debug enabled output keying information sufficient, server
side, to decode a TLS 1.3 packet capture.
JH/02 OpenSSL: Suppress the sending of (stateful) TLS1.3 session tickets.
Previously the default library behaviour applied, sending two, each in
its own TCP segment.
JH/03 Debug output for ACL now gives the config file name and line number for
each verb.
JH/04 The default received_header_text now uses the RFC 8314 tls cipher clause.
JH/05 DKIM: ensure that dkim_domain elements are lowercased before use.
JH/06 Fix buggy handling of autoreply bounce_return_size_limit, and a possible
buffer overrun for (non-chunking) other transports.
JH/07 GnuTLS: Our use of late (post-handshake) certificate verification, under
TLS1.3, means that a server rejecting a client certificate is not visible
to the client until the first read of encrypted data (typically the
response to EHLO). Add detection for that case and treat it as a failed
TLS connection attempt, so that the normal retry-in-clear can work (if
suitably configured).
JB/01 Bug 2375: fix expansions of 822 addresses having comments in local-part
and/or domain. Found and fixed by Jason Betts.
JH/08 Add hardening against SRV & TLSA lookups the hit CNAMEs (a nonvalid
configuration). If a CNAME target was not a wellformed name pattern, a
crash could result.
JH/09 Logging: Fix initial listening-on line for multiple ports for an IP when
the OS reports them interleaved with other addresses.
JH/10 OpenSSL: Fix aggregation of messages. Previously, when PIPELINING was
used both for input and for a verify callout, both encrypted, SMTP
responses being sent by the server could be lost. This resulted in
dropped connections and sometimes bounces generated by a peer sending
to this system.
JH/11 Harden plaintext authenticator against a badly misconfigured client-send
string. Previously it was possible to cause undefined behaviour in a
library routine (usually a crash). Found by "zerons".
JH/12 Bug 2384: fix "-bP smtp_receive_timeout". Previously it returned no
output.
JH/13 Bug 2386: Fix builds with Dane under LibreSSL 2.9.0 onward. Some old
API was removed, so update to use the newer ones.
JH/14 Bug 1891: Close the log file if receiving a non-smtp message, without
any timeout set, is taking a long time. Previously we would hang on to a
rotated logfile "forever" if the input was arriving with long gaps
(a previous attempt to fix addressed lack, for a long time, of initial
input).
HS/01 Bug 2390: Use message_id for tempfile creation to avoid races in a
shared (NFS) environment. The length of the tempfile name is now
4 + 16 ("hdr.$message_exim_id") which might break on file
systems which restrict the file name length to lower values.
(It was "hdr.$pid".)
HS/02 Bug 2390: Use message_id for tempfile creation to avoid races in a
shared (NFS) environment.
HS/03 Bug 2392: exigrep does case sensitive *option* processing (as it
did for all versions <4.90). Notably -M, -m, --invert, -I may be
affected.
JH/15 Use unsigned when creating bitmasks in macros, to avoid build errors
on some platforms for bit 31.
JH/16 GnuTLS: rework ciphersuite strings under recent library versions. Thanks
to changes apparently associated with TLS1.3 handling some of the APIs
previously used were either nonfunctional or inappropriate. Strings
like TLS1.3:ECDHE_SECP256R1__RSA_PSS_RSAE_SHA256__AES_256_GCM__AEAD:256
and TLS1.2:ECDHE_SECP256R1__RSA_SHA256__AES_128_CBC__SHA256:128 replace
the previous TLS1.2:ECDHE_RSA_AES_256_GCM_SHA384:256 .
This affects log line X= elements, the $tls_{in,out}_cipher variables,
and the use of specific cipher names in the encrypted= ACL condition.
JH/17 OpenSSL: the default openssl_options now disables ssl_v3.
JH/18 GnuTLS: fix $tls_out_ocsp under hosts_request_ocsp. Previously the
verification result was not updated unless hosts_require_ocsp applied.
JH/19 Bug 2398: fix listing of a named-queue. Previously, even with the option
queue_list_requires_admin set to false, non-admin users were denied the
facility.
JH/20 Bug 2389: fix server advertising of usable certificates, under GnuTLS in
directory-of-certs mode. Previously they were advertised despite the
documentation.
JH/21 The smtp transport option "hosts_noproxy_tls" is now unset by default.
A single TCP connection by a client will now hold a TLS connection open
for multiple message deliveries, by default. Previoud the default was to
not do so.
JH/22 The smtp transport option "hosts_try_dane" now enables all hosts by
default. If built with the facility, DANE will be used. The facility
SUPPORT_DANE is now enabled in the prototype build Makefile "EDITME".
JH/23 The build default is now for TLS to be included; the SUPPORT_TLS define
is replaced with DISABLE_TLS. Either USE_GNUTLS or (the new) USE_OPENSSL
must be defined and you must still, unless you define DISABLE_TLS, manage
the the include-dir and library-file requirements that go with that
choice. Non-TLS builds are still supported.
JH/24 Fix duplicated logging of peer name/address, on a transport connection-
reject under TFO.
JH/25 The smtp transport option "hosts_try_fastopen" now enables all hosts by
default. If the platform supports and has the facility enabled, it will
be requested on all coneections.
JH/26 The PIPE_CONNECT facility is promoted from experimental status and is now
controlled by the build-time option SUPPORT_PIPE_CONNECT.
PP/01 Unbreak heimdal_gssapi, broken in 4.92.
JH/27 Bug 2404: Use the main-section configuration option "dsn_from" for
success-DSN messages. Previously the From: header was always the default
one for these; the option was ignored.
JH/28 Fix the timeout on smtp response to apply to the whole response.
Previously it was reset for every read, so a teergrubing peer sending
single bytes within the time limit could extend the connection for a
long time. Credit to Qualsys Security Advisory Team for the discovery.
JH/29 Fix DSN Final-Recipient: field. Previously it was the post-routing
delivery address, which leaked information of the results of local
forwarding. Change to the original envelope recipient address, per
standards.
JH/30 Bug 2411: Fix DSN generation when RFC 3461 failure notification is
requested. Previously not bounce was generated and a log entry of
error ignored was made.
JH/31 Avoid re-expansion in ${sort } expansion. (CVE-2019-13917)
JH/32 Introduce a general tainting mechanism for values read from the input
channel, and values derived from them. Refuse to expand any tainted
values, to catch one form of exploit.
JH/33 Bug 2413: Fix dkim_strict option. Previously the expansion result
was unused and the unexpanded text used for the test. Found and
fixed by Ruben Jenster.
JH/34 Fix crash after TLS shutdown. When the TCP/SMTP channel was left open,
an attempt to use a TLS library read routine dereffed a nul pointer,
causing a segfault.
JH/35 Bug 2409: filter out-of-spec chars from callout response before using
them in our smtp response.
JH/36 Have the general router option retry_use_local_part default to true when
any of the restrictive preconditions are set (to anything). Previously it
was only for check_local user. The change removes one item of manual
configuration which is required for proper retries when a remote router
handles a subset of addresses for a domain.
JH/37 Appendfile: when evaluating quota use (non-quota_size_regex) take the file
link count into consideration.
HS/04 Fix handling of very log lines in -H files. If a -<key> <value> line
caused the extension of big_buffer, the following lines were ignored.
JH/38 Bug 1395: Teach the DNS negative-cache about TTL value from the SOA in
accordance with RFC 2308. Previously there was no expiry, so a longlived
receive process (eg. due to ACL delays) versus a short SOA value could
surprise.
HS/05 Handle trailing backslash gracefully. (CVE-2019-15846)
JH/39 Promote DMARC support to mainline.
JH/40 Bug 2452: Add a References: header to DSNs.
JH/41 With GnuTLS 3.6.0 (and later) do not attempt to manage Diffie-Hellman
parameters. The relevant library call is documented as "Deprecated: This
function is unnecessary and discouraged on GnuTLS 3.6.0 or later. Since
3.6.0, DH parameters are negotiated following RFC7919."
HS/06 Change the default of dnssec_request_domains to "*"
JH/42 Bug 2545: Fix CHUNKING for all RCPT commands rejected. Previously we
carried on and emitted a BDAT command, even when PIPELINING was not
active.
JH/43 Bug 2465: Fix taint-handling in dsearch lookup. Previously a nontainted
buffer was used for the filename, resulting in a trap when tainted
arguments (eg. $domain) were used.
JH/44 With OpenSSL 1.1.1 (onwards) disable renegotiation for TLS1.2 and below;
recommended to avoid a possible server-load attack. The feature can be
re-enabled via the openssl_options main cofiguration option.
JH/45 local_scan API: documented the current smtp_printf() call. This changed
for version 4.90 - adding a "more data" boolean to the arguments.
Bumped the ABI version number also, this having been missed previously;
release versions 4.90 to 4.92.3 inclusive were effectively broken in
respect of usage of smtp_printf() by either local_scan code or libraries
accessed via the ${dlfunc } expansion item. Both will need coding
adjustment for any calls to smtp_printf() to match the new function
signature; a FALSE value for the new argument is always safe.
JH/46 FreeBSD: fix use of the sendfile() syscall. The shim was not updating
the file-offset (which the Linux syscall does, and exim expects); this
resulted in an indefinite loop.
JH/47 ARC: fix crash in signing, triggered when a configuration error failed
to do ARC verification. The Authentication-Results: header line added
by the configuration then had no ARC item.

Fix for CVE-2019-16928
|
|
Exim version 4.92.2
-------------------
HS/01 Handle trailing backslash gracefully. (CVE-2019-15846)
|
|
|
|
Exim version 4.92.1
-------------------
JH/31 Avoid re-expansion in ${sort } expansion.
(CVE-2019-13917, OVE-20190718-0006)
|
|
The local makefile option need to be adjusted because SPF is
no longer an experimental feature in exim.
|
|
|
|
4.92:
New features include:
- ${l_header:<name>} expansion
- ${readsocket} now supports TLS
- "utf8_downconvert" option (if built with SUPPORT_I18N)
- "pipelining" log_selector
- JSON variants for ${extract } expansion
- "noutf8" debug option
- TCP Fast Open support on MacOS

|
|
|
|
|
|
Performing substitutions during post-patch breaks tools such as mkpatches,
making it very difficult to regenerate correct patches after making changes,
and often leading to substituted string replacements being committed.
|
|
Version 4.91
1. Dual-certificate stacks on servers now support OCSP stapling, under GnuTLS
version 3.5.6 or later.
2. DANE is now supported under GnuTLS version 3.0.0 or later. Both GnuTLS and
OpenSSL versions are moved to mainline support from Experimental.
New SMTP transport option "dane_require_tls_ciphers".
3. Feature macros for the compiled-in set of malware scanner interfaces.
4. SPF support is promoted from Experimental to mainline status. The template
src/EDITME makefile does not enable its inclusion.
5. Logging control for DKIM verification. The existing DKIM log line is
controlled by a "dkim_verbose" selector which is _not_ enabled by default.
A new tag "DKIM=<domain>" is added to <= lines by default, controlled by
a "dkim" log_selector.
6. Receive duration on <= lines, under a new log_selector "receive_time".
7. Options "ipv4_only" and "ipv4_prefer" on the dnslookup router and on
routing rules in the manualroute router.
8. Expansion item ${sha3:<string>} / ${sha3_<N>:<string>} now also supported
under OpenSSL version 1.1.1 or later.
9. DKIM operations can now use the Ed25519 algorithm in addition to RSA, under
GnuTLS 3.6.0 or OpenSSL 1.1.1 or later.
10. Builtin feature-macros _CRYPTO_HASH_SHA3 and _CRYPTO_SIGN_ED25519, library
version dependent.
11. "exim -bP macro <name>" returns caller-usable status.
12. Expansion item ${authresults {<machine>}} for creating an
Authentication-Results: header.
13. EXPERIMENTAL_ARC. See the experimental.spec file.
See also new util/renew-opendmarc-tlds.sh script for use with DMARC/ARC.
14: A dane:fail event, intended to facilitate reporting.
15. "Lightweight" support for Redis Cluster. Requires redis_servers list to
contain all the servers in the cluster, all of which must be reachable from
the running exim instance. If the cluster has master/slave replication, the
list must contain all the master and slave servers.
16. Add an option to the Avast scanner interface: "pass_unscanned". This
allows to treat unscanned files as clean. Files may be unscanned for
several reasons: decompression bombs, broken archives.

Exim version 4.90.1
JH/03 Fix pgsql lookup for multiple result-tuples with a single column.
Previously only the last row was returned.
JH/04 Bug 2217: Tighten up the parsing of DKIM signature headers. Previously
we assumed that tags in the header were well-formed, and parsed the
element content after inspecting only the first char of the tag.
Assumptions at that stage could crash the receive process on malformed
input.
JH/05 Bug 2215: Fix crash associated with dnsdb lookup done from DKIM ACL.
While running the DKIM ACL we operate on the Permanent memory pool so that
variables created with "set" persist to the DATA ACL. Also (at any time)
DNS lookups that fail create cache records using the Permanent pool. But
expansions release any allocations made on the current pool - so a dnsdb
lookup expansion done in the DKIM ACL releases the memory used for the
DNS negative-cache, and bad things result. Solution is to switch to the
Main pool for expansions.
While we're in that code, add checks on the DNS cache during store_reset,
active in the testsuite.
Problem spotted, and debugging aided, by Wolfgang Breyha.
JH/06 Fix issue with continued-connections when the DNS shifts unreliably.
When none of the hosts presented to a transport match an already-open
connection, close it and proceed with the list. Previously we would
queue the message. Spotted by Lena with Yahoo, probably involving
round-robin DNS.
JH/07 Bug 2214: Fix SMTP responses resulting from non-accept result of MIME ACL.
Previously a spurious "250 OK id=" response was appended to the proper
failure response.
JH/10 Bug 2223: Fix mysql lookup returns for the no-data case (when the number of
rows affected is given instead).
JH/12 Bug 2230: Fix cutthrough routing for nonfirst messages in an initiating
SMTP connection. Previously, when one had more receipients than the
first, an abortive onward connection was made. Move to full support for
multiple onward connections in sequence, handling cutthrough connection
for all multi-message initiating connections.
JH/13 Bug 2229: Fix cutthrough routing for nonstandard port numbers defined by
routers. Previously, a multi-recipient message would fail to match the
onward-connection opened for the first recipient, and cause its closure.
JH/14 Bug 2174: A timeout on connect for a callout was also erroneously seen as
a timeout on read on a GnuTLS initiating connection, resulting in the
initiating connection being dropped. This mattered most when the callout
was marked defer_ok. Fix to keep the two timeout-detection methods
separate.
HS/01 Fix Buffer overflow in base64d() (CVE-2018-6789)
JH/16 Fix bug in DKIM verify: a buffer overflow could corrupt the malloc
metadata, resulting in a crash in free().
PP/01 Fix broken Heimdal GSSAPI authenticator integration.
Broken in f2ed27cf5, missing an equals sign for specified-initialisers.
Broken also in d185889f4, with init system revamp.

------------
1. Allow relative config file names for ".include"
2. A main-section config option "debug_store" to control the checks on
variable locations during store-reset. Normally false but can be enabled
when a memory corrution issue is suspected on a production system.

Security update to address CVE-2016-9963
Exim version 4.88
-----------------
JH/01 Use SIZE on MAIL FROM in a cutthrough connection, if the destination
supports it and a size is available (ie. the sending peer gave us one).
JH/02 The obsolete acl condition "demime" is removed (finally, after ten
years of being deprecated). The replacements are the ACLs
acl_smtp_mime and acl_not_smtp_mime.
JH/03 Upgrade security requirements imposed for hosts_try_dane: previously
a downgraded non-dane trust-anchor for the TLS connection (CA-style)
or even an in-clear connection were permitted. Now, if the host lookup
was dnssec and dane was requested then the host is only used if the
TLSA lookup succeeds and is dnssec. Further hosts (eg. lower priority
MXs) will be tried (for hosts_try_dane though not for hosts_require_dane)
if one fails this test.
This means that a poorly-configured remote DNS will make it incommunicado;
but it protects against a DNS-interception attack on it.
JH/04 Bug 1810: make continued-use of an open smtp transport connection
non-noisy when a race steals the message being considered.
JH/05 If main configuration option tls_certificate is unset, generate a
self-signed certificate for inbound TLS connections.
JH/06 Bug 165: hide more cases of password exposure - this time in expansions
in rewrites and routers.
JH/07 Retire gnutls_require_mac et.al. These were nonfunctional since 4.80
and logged a warning sing 4.83; now they are a configuration file error.
JH/08 Bug 1836: Fix crash in VRFY handling when handed an unqualified name
(lacking @domain). Apply the same qualification processing as RCPT.
JH/09 Bug 1804: Avoid writing msglog files when in -bh or -bhc mode.
JH/10 Support ${sha256:} applied to a string (as well as the previous
certificate).
JH/11 Cutthrough: avoid using the callout hints db on a verify callout when
a cutthrough deliver is pending, as we always want to make a connection.
This also avoids re-routing the message when later placing the cutthrough
connection after a verify cache hit.
Do not update it with the verify result either.
JH/12 Cutthrough: disable when verify option success_on_redirect is used, and
when routing results in more than one destination address.
JH/13 Cutthrough: expand transport dkim_domain option when testing for dkim
signing (which inhibits the cutthrough capability). Previously only
the presence of an option was tested; now an expansion evaluating as
empty is permissible (obviously it should depend only on data available
when the cutthrough connection is made).
JH/14 Fix logging of errors under PIPELINING. Previously the log line giving
the relevant preceding SMTP command did not note the pipelining mode.
JH/15 Fix counting of empty lines in $body_linecount and $message_linecount.
Previously they were not counted.
JH/16 DANE: treat a TLSA lookup response having all non-TLSA RRs, the same
as one having no matching records. Previously we deferred the message
that needed the lookup.
JH/17 Fakereject: previously logged as a norml message arrival "<="; now
distinguished as "(=".
JH/18 Bug 1867: make the fail_defer_domains option on a dnslookup router work
for missing MX records. Previously it only worked for missing A records.
JH/19 Bug 1850: support Radius libraries that return REJECT_RC.
JH/20 Bug 1872: Ensure that acl_smtp_notquit is run when the connection drops
after the data-go-ahead and data-ack. Patch from Jason Betts.
JH/21 Bug 1846: Send DMARC forensic reports for reject and quaratine results,
even for a "none" policy. Patch from Tony Meyer.
JH/22 Fix continued use of a connection for further deliveries. If a port was
specified by a router, it must also match for the delivery to be
compatible.
JH/23 Bug 1874: fix continued use of a connection for further deliveries.
When one of the recipients of a message was unsuitable for the connection
(has no matching addresses), we lost track of needing to mark it
deferred. As a result mail would be lost.
JH/24 Bug 1832: Log EHLO response on getting conn-close response for HELO.
JH/25 Decoding ACL controls is now done using a binary search; the source code
takes up less space and should be simpler to maintain. Merge the ACL
condition decode tables also, with similar effect.
JH/26 Fix problem with one_time used on a redirect router which returned the
parent address unchanged. A retry would see the parent address marked as
delivered, so not attempt the (identical) child. As a result mail would
be lost.
JH/27 Fix a possible security hole, wherein a process operating with the Exim
UID can gain a root shell. Credit to http://www.halfdog.net/ for
discovery and writeup. Ubuntu bug 1580454; no bug raised against Exim
itself :(
JH/28 Enable {spool,log} filesystem space and inode checks as default.
Main config options check_{log,spool}_{inodes,space} are now
100 inodes, 10MB unless set otherwise in the configuration.
JH/29 Fix the connection_reject log selector to apply to the connect ACL.
Previously it only applied to the main-section connection policy
options.
JH/30 Bug 1897: fix callouts connection fallback from TLS to cleartext.
PP/01 Changed default Diffie-Hellman parameters to be Exim-specific, created
by me. Added RFC7919 DH primes as an alternative.
PP/02 Unbreak build via pkg-config with new hash support when crypto headers
are not in the system include path.
JH/31 Fix longstanding bug with aborted TLS server connection handling. Under
GnuTLS, when a session startup failed (eg because the client disconnected)
Exim did stdio operations after fclose. This was exposed by a recent
change which nulled out the file handle after the fclose.
JH/32 Bug 1909: Fix OCSP proof verification for cases where the proof is
signed directly by the cert-signing cert, rather than an intermediate
OCSP-signing cert. This is the model used by LetsEncrypt.
JH/33 Bug 1914: Ensure socket is nonblocking before draining after SMTP QUIT.
HS/01 Fix leak in verify callout under GnuTLS, about 3MB per recipient on
an incoming connection.
HS/02 Bug 1802: Do not half-close the connection after sending a request
to rspamd.
HS/03 Use "auto" as the default EC curve parameter. For OpenSSL < 1.0.2
fallback to "prime256v1".
JH/34 SECURITY: Use proper copy of DATA command in error message.
Could leak key material. Remotely explaoitable. CVE-2016-9963.
