News for the 1.6.3 release
Thu, 06 May 2004 11:05:46 +0200
* fixed possible abort when several UNIX domain sources refer to the
same socket
* fixed afunix and afinet destination template handling, do not include
the PRI value automatically, let the administrator do it
explicitly in its template
* fixed possible segfault when the value of 0 is represented as a
string in port specications (e.g. remoteport, localport, port)
* added MSGONLY macro which expands to the message only without the
program name which sent the log message
* added global sanitize_filenames() option which changes control
characters in all filenames to '.', defaults to TRUE, this might
avoid escape sequence attacks embedded in filenames (imagine an
administrator doing an ls in a directory where filenames contain
any control characters)
* avoid using GNU extensions in strftime (more specificly the
timezone expansion in $ISODATE used %z which is not portable for
IRIX)
* added address spoofing support (use the original IP address when
resending messages, read the file README.spoof for more information)
* couple of IRIX specific patches were integrated
* updated documentation
have fun!
