## Known issues
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- HTTP PUT implementation currently doesn't support chunked encoding yet.
|
|
|
|
- HTTP PUT with "Expect: 100-Continue" receives first a "100" and soon
|
|
|
|
after a "200", instead of the "200" at the end of transmission.
|
|
|
|
- Caution should be exercised when using `<on-connect>` or
|
|
|
|
`<on-disconnect>`, as there is a small chance of stream file descriptors
|
|
|
|
being mixed up with script file descriptors, if the FD numbers go above
|
|
|
|
1024. This will be further addressed in the next Icecast release.
|
|
|
|
- Don't use comments inside `<http-headers>` as it will
|
|
|
|
prevent processing of further `<header>` tags.
|
|
|
|
- Webinterface shows Login when using just `stream_auth`.

Icecast 2.4.3
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
We released a new version of Icecast last week.
|
|
|
|
It is a Windows only release and addresses a security issue recently brought
|
|
|
|
to our attention.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As it, embarrassingly, turns out this issue was previously raised on a
|
|
|
|
security mailing list in 2005 and assigned CVE 2005-0837.
|
|
|
|
A ticket (#635) was even created, once this posting was noticed
|
|
|
|
by an Icecast project member, at that time. Sadly the original report was
|
|
|
|
terse, the issue couldn't be readily reproduced and subsequently the ticket
|
|
|
|
was closed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We were recently contacted about this issue and this time provided with
|
|
|
|
details about the environment it occurred in. This allowed us to identify
|
|
|
|
this as a Windows only issue.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The vulnerability, identified as CVE-2005-0837, allows an attacker to acces
|
|
|
|
the raw XSLT template file by appending a dot “.” to the URL. Due to the
|
|
|
|
way how Windows handles file names ending with a dot, it only affects
|
|
|
|
Icecast versions < 2.4.3 running on Windows. Icecast on other operating
|
|
|
|
systems, like Linux, wasn't affected at any time by this issue. If you
|
|
|
|
haven't modified the default XSLT files of a Windows installation,
|
|
|
|
then no information disclosure of real value could have happened.
|
|
|
|
We expect that most, of the comparatively few, Windows installations have
|
|
|
|
unmodified template files and thus, while technically vulnerable,
|
|
|
|
only expose those unmodified templates. To be clear, no runtime information
|
|
|
|
can be accessed this way.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In case you modified the templates and they contain sensitive information,
|
|
|
|
it should be assumed that a third party could have accessed them.
|
|
|
|
We're sorry, that this issue went unresolved for a long time.

|
|
|

|
## New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Support for Ogg Opus streams
|
|
|
|
- Support for WebM streams
|
|
|
|
- HTTP 1.1 PUT support for source connections. Deprecates SOURCE method.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- _Default mount_
|
|
|
|
This allows you to define a global set of defaults for _all_ mounts.
|
|
|
|
This way you can use e.g. url-auth for sources and or listeners also
|
|
|
|
for dynamically generated mounts.
|
|
|
|
- _Web interface redone_
|
|
|
|
* Web output properly redone, credit to ePirat.
|
|
|
|
* Added `<audio>` element for supported audio streams.
|
|
|
|
* Now validates completely as XHTML1.0 strict.
|
|
|
|
* Improves rendering on mobile devices.
|
|
|
|
- Added basic JSON API (`/status-json.xsl`) based on a xml2json template
|
|
|
|
by Doeke Zanstra (see `xml2json.xslt`).
|
|
|
|
Output is roughly limited to data also visible through `status.xsl`.
|
|
|
|
- Send charset in HTTP headers for everything, excluding file-serv
|
|
|
|
and streams.
|
|
|
|
- Allow (standard `strftime(3)`) `%x` codes in `<dump-file>`.
|
|
|
|
Disabled for win32.
|
|
|
|
- Added stream_start_iso8601, server_start_iso8601 to statitics.
|
|
|
|
ISO8601 compliant timestamps for statistics.
|
|
|
|
Should make usage in e.g. JSON much easier. Added as new variables
|
|
|
|
to avoid breaking backwards compatibility.
|
|
|
|
- Now compiles for win32 using mingw
|
|
|
|
- Added options `headers` and `header_prefix` to URL based listener auth.
|
|
|
|
- Updated listener_remove handler, added `ip=` and `agent=`
|
|
|
|
- Allow full URLs to be returned by the master server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Security Fix: Override supplementary groups if `<changeowner>` is used
|
|
|
|
- Fixes for some race conditions
|
|
|
|
- Dropped debian packaging directory as debian use their own.
|
|
|
|
- Send proper HTTP headers in responses to clients.
|
|
|
|
- Corrected `Content-Length` header in admin (raw) requests.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to paluh for reporting.
|
|
|
|
- Escape log entries in access log
|
|
|
|
- Fixed a memory leak. Lost headers of stream because of wrong
|
|
|
|
ref counter in associated refbuf objects.
|
|
|
|
- Avoid memory leak in `_parse_mount()` when `type`-attribute is set
|
|
|
|
- Updated web interface to be XHTML compliant.
|
|
|
|
- Removed `status2.xsl` from release.
|
|
|
|
It was only a broken example file anyway.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Known issues
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Will crash if certain config tags are left empty.
|
|
|
|
- Webinterface shows Login when using just `stream_auth`.

Icecast 2.4 beta1
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Note: While WebM and Opus are production grade, there are other pending fixes.
|
|
|
|
|
2012-06-13 17:26:17 -04:00
|
|
|
- Support for WebM video
|
|
|
|
- Support for Opus audio in Ogg
|
2012-07-17 16:46:06 -04:00
|
|
|
- Fixes for some race conditions
|
|
|
|
- Allow (standard strftime(3)) %x codes in <dump-file>. Disabled for win32.
|
|
|
|
- Dropped debian packaging directory as debian use their own.

Icecast 2.3.3
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2012-07-17 16:46:06 -04:00
|
|
|
- security fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Improved HTTPS cipher handling and added support for chained certificates.
|
|
|
|
- Allow the source password to be undefined. There was a corner case, where
|
|
|
|
a default password would have taken effect. It would require the admin to
|
|
|
|
remove the 'source-password' from the icecast config to take effect.
|
|
|
|
Default configs ship with the password set, so this vulnerability doesn't
|
|
|
|
trigger there.
|
|
|
|
- Prevent error log injection of control characters by substituting
|
|
|
|
non-alphanumeric characters with a '.' (CVE-2011-4612).
|
|
|
|
Injection attempts can be identified via access.log, as that stores URL
|
|
|
|
encoded requests. Investigation if further logging code needs to have
|
|
|
|
sanitized output is ongoing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Bugfixes
|
|
|
|
This is mostly a bug-fix release to flush out the accumulated fixes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- On-demand relaying - Reject listeners while reconnecting.
|
|
|
|
Fix stats for relays without mount section.
|
|
|
|
- Prevent too frequent YP updates.
|
|
|
|
- Only allow raw metadata updates from same IP as connected source
|
|
|
|
(unless user is admin). This addresses broken client software that
|
|
|
|
issues updates without being connected.
|
|
|
|
- Minor memory leaks
|
|
|
|
- XSPF file installation
|
|
|
|
- Fix case of global listeners count becoming out of sync.
|
|
|
|
- Setting an interval of 0 in mount should disable shoutcast metadata inserts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Authentication
|
|
|
|
Sources can now be authenticated via URL, like listeners. Post info is:
|
|
|
|
"action=stream_auth&mount=/stream&ip=IP&server=SERVER&port=8000&user=fred&pass=pass"
|
|
|
|
As admin requests can come in for a stream (eg metadata update) these
|
|
|
|
requests can be issued while stream is active. For these &admin=1 is added
|
|
|
|
to the POST details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- XSL update
|
|
|
|
Automatically generate VCLT playlist like we do with M3U,
|
|
|
|
the mountpoint extension is .vclt
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Documentation updates.

Icecast 2.3.2
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- Character set support.
|
|
|
|
Most non-Ogg streams (eg MP3) send metadata as Latin1 but it could be in other
|
|
|
|
character sets. As icecast uses UTF-8, we need to convert to UTF-8 so that web
|
|
|
|
pages and stream directories render correctly,
|
|
|
|
. Allow a per-mount <charset> setting. For when source clients do not
|
|
|
|
indicate which character set is in use.
|
|
|
|
. a charset= parameter to the metadata request.
|
|
|
|
. Default for non-Ogg content is now Latin-1 (aka ISO-8859-1), Ogg content
|
|
|
|
still use UTF-8.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Authentication
|
|
|
|
. Each mountpoint authentication is isolated so one mount authentication does
|
|
|
|
not slow another mountpoint authentication down.
|
|
|
|
. XSL pages can require authentication.
|
|
|
|
. Add some sanity checks for incorrect settings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Listening socket update
|
|
|
|
. Allow multiple ports to be allocated which allow multiple shoutcast source
|
|
|
|
clients to stream on the same icecast instance.
|
|
|
|
. No internal limit on the number of listen-sockets that can be used.
|
|
|
|
. Allow for a listen-socket to be marked SSL capable. While any client could
|
|
|
|
connect on these, the idea is really for /admin requests.
|
|
|
|
. allow for a <listen-socket> to bind to ipv4 and ipv6. BSDs may require to
|
|
|
|
the use of bind-address.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- XSL update
|
|
|
|
. XSL pages include an xspf link for non-auth streams.
|
|
|
|
. XSL pages in both webroot and adminroot can take a mount= arg to limit
|
|
|
|
which stats are transformed.
|
|
|
|
. XSL files can specify the content-type to return to the client. It is no
|
|
|
|
longer fixed to html
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Updates for stream directory handling.
|
|
|
|
. A stream is not registered with the directory until after the first minute
|
|
|
|
has passed. some streams have been stuck in a connect/disconnect loop.
|
|
|
|
. Increase retry time on failure, if the stream add is rejected then it will
|
|
|
|
be down to a misconfiguration so a long retry delay is performed.
|
|
|
|
. A YP server that is not responding is ignored for a while
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Updates for Win32
|
|
|
|
. Build cleanups,
|
|
|
|
. Newer versions of dependency libs (libxml2/libxslt/libcurl etc)
|
|
|
|
. buffer overflow fixes when many streams are active
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Accept/Ban IP support.
|
|
|
|
Now takes filenames for explicitly accepting or denying requests from specified
|
|
|
|
IP addresses. Useful in cases where firewall access is not available. The
|
|
|
|
files, if defined, are re-read automatically if updated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- A Mountpoint is exported to the slaves even if no mount section is defined for
|
|
|
|
it. You can still use the hidden setting to prevent that from happening.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Relays handle redirection (HTTP 302) if one is received at startup.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Automatically generate XSPF playlist like we do with M3U, the mountpoint
|
|
|
|
extension is .xspf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Header updates for proxy handling and certain clients like some shoutcast
|
|
|
|
source clients and flash players.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Added Kate/Skeleton codecs to Ogg handler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Various stats cleanups. Added some global stats (server ID, email contact etc).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Documentation updates.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The streamlist passed from master to slave had a limited length, so if there
|
|
|
|
were many streams then some could of been left out.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Relay startup/shutdown is cleaner.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- several build cleanups.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- several resource leaks and race conditions fixed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Icecast 2.3.1
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- new tag <logsize> in <logging> state the trigger size (in KB) for cycling the
|
|
|
|
log files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- new tag <logarchive> in <logging> enable (1) if you want to use a timestamp
|
|
|
|
for an extension when cycling logs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Handling of certain shoutcast source clients is fixed, this typically
|
|
|
|
affected NSV source clients
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- A race in source shutdown when listeners are authenticated could lead to
|
|
|
|
server crash
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- An audio glitch was possible in playback of vorbis streams when a new logical
|
|
|
|
stream started (eg metadata update).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- stats speedup. Processing large numbers of stats was slow. Typically only
|
|
|
|
seen when using lots of streams on the same server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- 404 responses were being sent back in some places, now 403 is sent back.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Auth URL now handles the authentication to scripts better.
|
|
|
|
The order in which username/password are selected is
|
|
|
|
1. url is http://user:pass@host:port/....
|
|
|
|
2. <param name="username"> and <param name="password">
|
|
|
|
3. with listener_add/remove, listener supplied username/password is used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- A streams intro file can now be changed, using HUP, on active streams.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- mount without a name crashed the server
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Various documentation updates
|
|

Icecast 2.3
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
**** New features for 2.3.0 ****
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Streaming support for ogg speex, ogg flac, ogg midi
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- intro file support - per mount settable
|
|
|
|
Intro files will play when a listener first connects to a stream. This
|
|
|
|
is designed for station jingles and the like. If you don't broadcast
|
|
|
|
in ogg vorbis, you must make sure the bitrate/samplerate/number of
|
|
|
|
channels match up to your stream.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- on-demand relays, global and per-relay settable
|
|
|
|
On demand relays only connect to the relayed content when there are
|
|
|
|
listeners attached to the relay. This can save bandwidth in certain cases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- fallback to file, extends on the intro file handling.
|
|
|
|
With this feature, you can specify a "fallback file" which will be played
|
|
|
|
in a loop and sent your currently connected listeners in the event of a
|
|
|
|
source client disconnect. This means your listeners stay connected while
|
|
|
|
you fix your disconnect problem. Same rules regarding bitrate/samplerate/
|
|
|
|
number of channels apply as with intro files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- new mount-level settings
|
|
|
|
1. public, type/subtype, genre settings, stream description,
|
|
|
|
stream url, stream name, bitrate (override what is sent from the source
|
|
|
|
client)
|
|
|
|
2. mp3 metadata interval
|
|
|
|
3. on-[dis]connect scripts can be stated per-mount, invoked at source
|
|
|
|
start/stop and take 1 arg which is the mountpoint.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- New URL listener authenticator.
|
|
|
|
This delegates your listener authorization to an external application.
|
|
|
|
URL calls are made on listener connect/disconnect as well as source
|
|
|
|
connect/disconnect. It is meant for large broadcasters who have existing
|
|
|
|
authentication systems that need to be integrated into. Included is
|
|
|
|
an example php-based application that can be used in conjunction with
|
|
|
|
the url authenticator to manage a simple subscription-based broadcast.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- HTPasswd authenticator uses in-memory structures now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- On demand files now can be fed through an authenticator
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to admin/web xslt interface
|
|
|
|
|
2005-09-22 16:21:40 -04:00
|
|
|
- Icecast can now be installed as a win32 service
|
|
|
|
|
2005-09-22 10:19:08 -04:00
|
|
|
**** Fixes for 2.3.0 ****
|
|
|
|
- real/helix works
|
|
|
|
- win32 access log correct
|
|
|
|
- stats client is stable now (curl -X STATS http://admin@host:port/)
|
|
|
|
- show mountpoints on stats that are inactive but have an active fallback
|
|
|
|
- more updates over HUP possible
|
2005-09-22 10:39:51 -04:00
|
|
|
- improved stability under heavy load
|
|
|
|
- moving clients will no longer sometimes deadlock the server
|
|
|
|
- avoid small writes to reduce TCP overhead.

Icecast 2.2
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
****New features for 2.2 (in no particular order):****
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Theora Video support -
|
|
|
|
Icecast now supports video streaming via theora. Currently, we require the latest
|
|
|
|
(alpha 4) version of libtheora. This is an optional compile, so if you don't
|
|
|
|
have theora then icecast will safely ignore it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Shoutcast style source client support -
|
|
|
|
Icecast now supports the connection protocol used by the Shoutcast DSP source
|
|
|
|
client. This is the same connection protocol used by their NSV encoding tools.
|
|
|
|
This means that not only can you use the Shoutcast DSP to stream to icecast, but
|
|
|
|
that you can also stream NSV via their tools.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- AAC is added as a supported streaming format -
|
|
|
|
Not too many source clients support streaming in this format, but we support it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Cluster password -
|
|
|
|
Now you can specify a cluster password as a <mount> option in the config. This
|
|
|
|
will allow you to cluster multiple servers/mounts into a single listing on the
|
|
|
|
stream directory. Note that this is different than "grouping" which groups together
|
|
|
|
streams coming from the same physical IP and with the same stream name. Clusters
|
|
|
|
are meant for relays of the same stream and will only be listed *once* in the stream
|
|
|
|
directory. When a listener tunes into a cluster, they will be served an m3u file
|
|
|
|
with all the clusters for that stream.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Playlist Log -
|
|
|
|
This is an option setting that will create an audit trail of metadata that comes through
|
|
|
|
icecast. It is a single file that contains information for all mountpoints.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Range Support for static files -
|
|
|
|
We now support seeking in files served off the icecast fserve.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Metadata Update via Admin -
|
|
|
|
We now support metadata updates via the admin interface for both MP3 AND Ogg Vorbis
|
|
|
|
streams.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Per mount hidden stats and YP prevention -
|
|
|
|
You many now indicate certains mounts to be excluded (i.e. hidden) from the main
|
|
|
|
status.xsl page. This is useful when using local private relays. You can also
|
|
|
|
override the YP setting (as in disable) on a per-mount basis. Also useful for
|
|
|
|
local private relays.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Multiple example config files -
|
|
|
|
We now have multiple config files for you to use as a base. A "simple" one for
|
|
|
|
quick-start, and a more detailed "advanced" one with all the features, as well
|
|
|
|
as a "shoutcast compatable" one, which shows how you'd config for using the
|
|
|
|
shoutcast DSP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Relay user/pass -
|
|
|
|
You can now specify authentication used by a relay. This is for the case where
|
|
|
|
you have listener authentication enabled for a mountpoint, and want to connect
|
|
|
|
a relay to it.

Icecast 2.1 11/04/2004
|
2004-10-28 12:11:10 -04:00
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
****New features for 2.1 (in no particular order):****
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Listener Authentication-
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Icecast now supports listener authentication. This provides a mechanism for
|
|
|
|
creating/maintaining users and passwords for listeners. Currently, we only
|
|
|
|
have implemented a simple, file-based storage for users and passwords. New
|
|
|
|
authenticators are on the horizon (such as URL-based or possibly MySQL based)
|
|
|
|
New admin pages were also added for the maintenance of users/passwords. Please
|
|
|
|
check the docs for a more detailed description of this new feature.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Multi-Level Fallbacks-
|
2004-10-29 16:26:03 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Multi-level fallbacks allow for specifications of a series of fallback mounts
|
2004-11-06 12:16:57 -05:00
|
|
|
that you can use to automatically move listeners in the event of a source being
|
|
|
|
disconnected. In the event of new listeners attaching to the source stream that has
|
|
|
|
been disconnected, they are routed to the fallback mount (if specified).
|
|
|
|
Icecast now has fallback-override capability as well which means that in the event
|
|
|
|
of a source stream failure, listeners are moved to the fallback mount, and then
|
|
|
|
automatically recaptured when the original source stream returns.
|
2004-10-28 12:11:10 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Burst-On-Connect-
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is an new, optional config setting which will send a initial burst of
|
|
|
|
data to connecting listeners. This has the effect of reducing
|
|
|
|
(significantly) the startup buffer latency from the end-user perspective.
|
|
|
|
This option is enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
****New Enhancements for 2.1****
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Update to admin interface-
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This interface has been cleaned up quite a bit and made a bit nicer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Rewrite of the YP listing code-
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The icecast yp code has received a complete overhaul by karl, and it's a much
|
|
|
|
more stable and failure-resistant implementation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Lots and lots of bugs fixed-
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Check the ChangeLog for a complete list of these...

|
|
|
|
2003-03-08
|
|
|
|
Started implementing generic admin interface. Supports (so far):
|
|
|
|
- dynamic configuration of mount fallbacks
|
|
|
|
/admin/fallbacks?mount=/mount&fallback=/fallback
|
|
|
|
- setting of mp3 metadata
|
|
|
|
/admin/metadata?mount=/mount&mode=updinfo&song=New%20Title

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-03-05
|
|
|
|
Implemented the ability to reread the config file on SIGHUP. For now, this
|
|
|
|
does not affect configuration for currently running sources (only new
|
|
|
|
sources and global parameters like max-listeners)
|
|
|
|
|
