|
| 89 |
reply blocks (by Gerd Beuster).
|
| 90 |
--nym option bug fix (by Adam Back).
|
| 91 |
|
| 92 |
2001-09-11 2.9beta24 Changed pool.c to allow Mixmaster keys to pass
|
| 93 |
even when binary blocking is enabled. Note that
|
| 94 |
the solution is not a nice one: It does not
|
| 95 |
recognize Mix keys, it simply allows 10 lines of
|
| 96 |
binary garbage instead of 3. This should be enough
|
| 97 |
for Mix keys to come through (by Peter Palfrader).
|
| 98 |

|
| 99 |

malformed text attachments (by Michael Young).
|
| 116 |
Better error handling (by Scott Renfro).

| 120 |
Added support for remailer-adminkey replies to
|
| 121 |
provide a better way for remops to distribute
|

their keys. (by Markus Stöger).
|
| 123 |
Fixed errors with pcre2.08 (by Rodney Thayer).
|
| 124 |

|
| 125 |

|
| 132 |
Correct time is written to mbox.
|
| 133 |
Key flags correctly set in key.txt. (all by
|
| 134 |
Disastry).
|
| 135 |
OpenSSL and OpenBSD Install script issues
|
| 136 |
addressed.
|
| 137 |
|
| 138 |
2001-12-16 2.9b33 Support for Mixmaster as a service on Windows
|
| 139 |
platforms added (by Disastry).
|
| 140 |
Problem transparently remixing to Type I remailers
|
| 141 |
debugged and corrected (by Andy Dustman,
|
| 142 |
Disastry, Senshi-Admin).
|
| 143 |
Fixed an error in chain.c that was causing
|
| 144 |
segfaults with chains greater than 20 remailers.

|
| 155 |

the last version (Peter Palfrader).
|
| 159 |
Various command line bug fixes.
|
| 160 |
|
| 161 |

build target (Closes: #584386).
|
| 177 |
Change »majordomo@*« to »majordomo@« in default
|
| 178 |
dest.blk. The dest block engine does not under-
|
| 179 |
stand shell globs. Either substring matches or
|
| 180 |
regexen.
|
| 181 |
Fixed -T switch: if type2.list is not available fall
|
| 182 |
back to pubring.mix.
|
| 183 |
USE_IDEA is no longer default in config.h. It always
|
| 184 |
gets defined by the Install script instead.
|
| 185 |
Only create OpenPGP RSA keys if we compiled with
|
| 186 |
IDEA.
|

| 203 |
Minor Install script fixes.
|
| 204 |
|
| 205 |
2002-08-20 2.9b37 OpenPGP enhancement release (fixes by Disastry).
|
| 206 |
Fix a small bug in pgpdata.c that stopped Mixmaster
|
| 207 |
from reading cipher preferences.
|
| 208 |
Fixed Passphrase reading in mpgp (the test program)
|
| 209 |
on Windows platform.
|

|
| 218 |
|
| 219 |
2002-09-11 2.9b38 Install script deals with lack of patented IDEA
|
| 220 |
algorithm in a sane way (closes: #479020).
|
| 221 |
Compiled-in passphrase is now deprecated.
|
| 222 |
When expiring packet ids from id.log also expire
|
| 223 |
packets that are dated more than half a year in
|
| 224 |
the future. That way we get rid of invalid
|
| 225 |
packets introduced by the switch to a binary file.
|
| 226 |
The stats in remailer-stats replies always had a
|
| 227 |
peak at 00:00 GMT which was wrong. Fixed.
|
| 228 |
(closes: #597688).
|
| 229 |
Fixed a bug with reading armored keyrings consisting
|
| 230 |
of more than one armored block or having comments
|
| 231 |
in front of the one armored block.
|
| 232 |
In RSA PGP keys, we now set e=0x11.
|
| 233 |
Mixmaster now deletes error and temporary files
|
| 234 |
older than PACKETEXP time along with expired
|
| 235 |
partial packets.
|
| 236 |
Linux PPC fixes (and all other archs where char is
|
| 237 |
unsigned).
|
| 238 |
|
| 239 |
2002-10-07 2.9b39 Added a new feature, --store-mail (-I), which will
|
| 240 |
deliver an encrypted mix packet to the message pool
|
| 241 |
without attempting being decrypted.
|
| 242 |
Made minor updates for WIN32 DLL.
|
| 243 |
When sending type II messages interactivly you may
|
| 244 |
now choose a middleman remailer as the last hop
|
| 245 |
in your chain (closes: #481244).
|
| 246 |
If a footer.txt file exists its content will be
|
| 247 |
appended to outgoing messages leaving the remailer
|
| 248 |
network at this hop (closes: #490117).
|
| 249 |
List known remailers in remailer-conf reply (closes:
|
| 250 |
#480330).
|
| 251 |
The files created with "SENDMAIL outfile" have
|
| 252 |
different names now to scale beyond 10k files
|
| 253 |
(closes: #587593).
|
| 254 |

|
| 255 |

| 257 |
configuration information from an alternate file.
|
| 258 |
POOL is now used correctly if set in mix.cfg.
|
| 259 |
ASCII armor checksum is now verified on PGP keys.
|
| 260 |
Corrected a bug where 1/4096 of pgp messages was
|
| 261 |
destroyed due an improper armor checksum
|
| 262 |
interpretation.
|
| 263 |
Added password-based authenticated SMTP for mix.
|
| 264 |
Currently, only AUTH LOGIN is supported.
|
| 265 |
Mixmaster now handles <CR><LF> in pubring.mix.
|
| 266 |
Removed incorrect NT service checks in mix.c.
|
| 267 |
Mixmaster now keeps no stats in client mode.
|
| 268 |
The pool is autmatically checked for waiting
|
| 269 |
messages in the client configuration.
|
| 270 |
Mixmaster now bears a DFSG-compliant license.
|
| 271 |
Fixed permissions on tarball release.
|
| 272 |
Documentation updates.
|
| 273 |
|
| 274 |
2002-10-16 2.9b40 New option MAILIN that can be set to either a mbox
|
| 275 |
or Maildir folder. New mail will be read from it
|
| 276 |
and the folder cleared every time Mixmaster
|
| 277 |
processes its pool, or at MAILINTIME intervals
|
| 278 |
(closes: #597043).
|
| 279 |
The Mixmaster daemon now writes a pid file.
|
| 280 |
Mixmaster in daemon mode now catches SIGTERM and
|
| 281 |
SIGINT and finishes its current queue run and then
|
| 282 |
exits successfully.
|
| 283 |
Minor code formating cleanup and Install script
|
| 284 |
fixes.
|
| 285 |
|
| 286 |
2002-xx-xx STABLE The Mixmaster protocol version is now prepended
|
| 287 |
to the software version in the Mixmaster cap-
|
| 288 |
string.
|
| 289 |
Minor configuration default changes and Install
|
| 290 |
script fixes.
|
| 291 |
Install script now always uses "make" and not
|
| 292 |
"gmake".
|
| 293 |
IDEA detection is fixed on systems that provide
|
| 294 |
the header files but then turn out to not
|
| 295 |
have the required functions upon linking.
|
| 296 |
Install now properly identifies system-wide
|
| 297 |
installations of pcre and/or zlib if they
|
| 298 |
are installed in /usr/local/.
|
| 299 |
Mixmaster will now ensure that an address
|
| 300 |
submitted in a blocking request does not
|
| 301 |
match that of a known remailer before
|
| 302 |
adding it to the dest.blk file (patch
|
| 303 |
submitted by Trek. Vulnerability originally
|
| 304 |
discovered by noise and rabbi.)
|
| 305 |
Minor documentation fixes.
|
| 306 |
Append another newline character to mbox folders
|
| 307 |
when storing a mail so that the mandatory empty
|
| 308 |
line is there.
|
| 309 |
|
| 310 |
2002-10-18 3.0a1 Applied Maildir feature patch by drt@un.bewaff.net,
|
| 311 |
with some changes by PP:
|
| 312 |
MAILBOX can now be a Maildir (closes: #586223).
|
| 313 |
Mixmaster in daemon mode reloads configuration on
|
| 314 |
SIGHUP.
|
| 315 |
The secret pgp keyring is now stored ASCII armored
|
| 316 |
with one key per ascii armor.
|
| 317 |
NB: Due to the bug with reading armored keyrings and
|
| 318 |
secring being stored armored now, it is not
|
| 319 |
advisable to downgrade Mixmaster unless special
|
| 320 |
action is taken to preserve the secret pgp
|
| 321 |
keyring.
|
| 322 |
Mixmaster now prompts for secret key passphrase when
|
| 323 |
started in daemon mode.
|
| 324 |
Mixmaster checks expiration and revocation status of
|
| 325 |
pgp keys, userids, and subkeys.
|
| 326 |
Mixmaster will not encrypt or sign with a revoked
|
| 327 |
or expired key.
|
| 328 |
When encrypting, Mixmaster uses preferences from
|
| 329 |
the primary userid (or the latest userid, if zero
|
| 330 |
or more than one primary userid is present.)
|
| 331 |
Mixmaster keys now have creation and expiration date.
|
| 332 |
It is not secured by any crypto voodoo, it's only
|
| 333 |
informational for clients to decide which keys to
|
| 334 |
use should they have more.
|
| 335 |
- on the client side we do not show remailers (and
|
| 336 |
therefore not use them) if their key is expired.
|
| 337 |
- the remailer refuses to decrypt messages to keys
|
| 338 |
that expired one month ago or earlier.
|
| 339 |
- the remailer automatically creates new Mixmaster
|
| 340 |
keys if the current ones are about to expire or
|
| 341 |
already are expired.
|
| 342 |
- the latest key from secring.mix is written to
|
| 343 |
key.txt. It used to be the first one. Since
|
| 344 |
creation of new mix key appends the key, this
|
| 345 |
seemed sensible.
|
| 346 |
Mixmaster now generates dummy messages automatically
|
| 347 |
as mail enters and exits the pool.
|
| 348 |
|
| 349 |
2002-xx-xx 3.0a2 New Star-Exclude feature by Colin Tuckley:
|
| 350 |
User-selected remailers can be excluded from
|
| 351 |
being chosen as random hops.
|
| 352 |
Have stats on intermediate vs. final hop count
|
| 353 |
(closes: #649900).
|
| 354 |
|
| 355 |
2003-05-03 3.0a4 Handle a pool we cannot read correctly: don't close
|
| 356 |
the NULL dir handle (segfaults on *bsd). We also
|
| 357 |
print a warning in that case now.
|
| 358 |
Add max capability for Type I.
|
| 359 |
Make sure DH/DSA param file is actually opened before
|
| 360 |
writing to it. Fixes a segfault in case it is not.
|
| 361 |
Fix a problem in blockrequest() where a buffer
|
| 362 |
could have been used after it was free()d which
|
| 363 |
resulted in segfaults.
|
| 364 |
Install script tweaks
|
| 365 |
Check that feedback buffer is not null before

operating on it in chain_select().
|
| 367 |
Closes #631353, thanks Sami Farin.
|
| 368 |
In order to serve help files in different languages
|
| 369 |
we need a way to reply to requests like
|
| 370 |
remailer-help-it. In order to not have to modify
|
| 371 |
the code for each and every new ressource,
|
| 372 |
Mixmaster now sends the file
|
| 373 |
requests/remailer-<something> to
|
| 374 |
remailer-<something> requests.
|
| 375 |
remailer-{help,key, stats,conf,adminkey} still are
|
| 376 |
special cases tho.
|
| 377 |
In the curses interface chain selection it was not
|
| 378 |
possible to select a random last hop with a usenet
|
| 379 |
post message. Fixed (closes: #719165).
|
| 380 |
If remix was enabled and we had a Type-I Anon-Post-To
|
| 381 |
request we accidently randhoped it via the
|
| 382 |
configured default remailing chain (default:
|
| 383 |
*,*,*,*).
|
| 384 |
Fixed (closes: #729494).
|
| 385 |
In client mode (REMAIL n) the pool is flushed every
|
| 386 |
time mixmaster is run unless CLIENTAUTOFLUSH is
|
| 387 |
set to n. (closes: #676794: Rate implementation
|
| 388 |
doubled)
|
| 389 |
Found that weird bug that sometimes led to "Unknown
|
| 390 |
remailer version!" errors: In chain_randfinal() we
|
| 391 |
selected a random value between 0 and maxrem instead
|
| 392 |
of 0 and maxrem - 1. Mixmaster now uses
|
| 393 |
broken-chain info from stats. I hope this doesn't
|
| 394 |
break any Nym functionality.
|
| 395 |
Warn if remailer stats are older than a day.

2003-05-08 3.0a5 Experimental feature: --redirect -l <chain>.
|
| 398 |
If you have a mixmaster message with a
|
| 399 |
chain starting with hop1 (you cannot know any
|
| 400 |
more because it already is encrypted) then
|
| 401 |
mix --redirect -l foo,bar < file
|
| 402 |
redirect the message so the chain is actually
|
| 403 |
foo,bar,hop1,... and places it in your pool.
|
| 404 |
If the total number of hops (which cannot be
|
| 405 |
known) exceeds 20 the message is damanged
|
| 406 |
and will fail at the 20th node.
|
| 407 |
|

2003-06-27 3.0a6 Don't send messages to ourselves via the mailsystem
|
| 410 |
but instead place them in the pool as incoming
|
| 411 |
messages so that they will get processed with the
|
| 412 |
next pool run.
|
| 413 |
Hopefully fix a bug with pool stats.
|
| 414 |
|
| 415 |
2003-06-29 3.0a7 Two minor fixes for bugs introduced in 3.0a6 and
|
| 416 |
3.0a4.
|
| 417 |
|
| 418 |
2003-06-30 3.0a8 Minor stats fix. The date in remailer-stats was
|
| 419 |
sometimes wrong.
|
| 420 |
|
| 421 |
2003-??-?? CVS Don't try to send a message if there are no
|
| 422 |
recipients left.
|
| 423 |
Set default max-randhops from 20 to 4.
|
| 424 |
Remix-To chain is limited by max-randhops limit as
|
| 425 |
well.
|
| 426 |
Messages to more than one remailer are dropped.
|
| 427 |
Config option EXTFLAGS allows appending additional
|
| 428 |
flags to the capabilities string. (Hauke Lampe)
