Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
|
||||
* bug 1124, CVE-2012-4545: Do not delegate GSSAPI credentials in HTTP
|
||||
Negotiate or GSS-Negotiate authentication. Reported by Marko Myllynen.
|
||||
(ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that supported GSSAPI; earlier
|
||||
releases are not vulnerable.)

|
||||
Fixed crashes and hangs:
|
||||
|
||||
* critical bug 943: Don't let user JavaScripts call any methods of
|
||||
``elinks.action'' in tabs that do not have the focus. If a tab was
|
||||
closed with ``elinks.action.tab_close'' while it had pop-up windows,
|
||||
ELinks could crash; as a precaution, don't allow other actions
|
||||
either. ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that supported

either. (ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that supported

* critical bug 1083: Avoid an infinite loop when trying to decompress

malformed data. Caused by the bug 1068 fix in ELinks 0.12pre3.
|
||||
* Fix a possible crash or information disclosure on big-endian 64-bit
|
||||
systems using HTTP Negotiate or GSS-Negotiate authentication.

Incompatibilities:

* Dropped support for SEE. (ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release
|

that supported SEE.)
|
||||
* Guile 2.0.0 (released on 2011-02-16) changed its license to
|
||||
LGPLv3-or-later, which is not compatible with the GPLv2 that covers
|
||||
ELinks. Also, Guile has deprecated many of the functions that

ELinks calls.
