6.5.5
LICENSING CHANGE OF WOLFSSL:
* Note that wolfSSL 5.8.2 switched license from GPLv2 to GPLv3, so if
a distribution links fetchmail against wolfSSL, this implies the use
of the "or-any-later-version" clause of the GPLv2-or-later licensed
material
in fetchmail, and the combined work can also only ship as GPLv3.
This may or may not apply to later versions of wolfSSL - be sure to
check!
BUGFIXES:
==-- note that these comprise C23 compatibility fixes (GCC 15) --==
* Support t.operation when the running user is different from the one
mentioned in the $USER variable. Fix courtesy of Corey Halpin.
* The kerberos*_auth() functions for v4 and v5 have prototypes now,
so they can be compiled by the most modern C compilers.
* AC_TYPE_* type-checking macros seem unnecessary, strip them, also from
config.h.meson which would not fill them from build.meson. We expect
the operating system to provide us pid_t, size_t, uint32_t.
* Our res_search() autoconf check was broken on compilers adhering to
newer
standards (C23), for instance GCC 15, disabling several DNS-based
features
in autotools-based builds, but not meson-based builds.
Strip the bogus "extern int res_search();" declaration without
prototype,
we would need to have the prototype from the system either way.
IMPORTANT CHANGE:
* Fetchmail is now more careful to actually clear password and like
buffers
in memory, so that is less likely that other processes could access
them
should they happen to access similar memory regions after fetchmail's
exit.
Fetchmail now uses memset_explicit(), explicit_bzero(), or its own
explicit_bzero() implementation to clear memory buffers that contain
passwords or like secrets, or their base64 equivalents, and also
buffers
that it uses to visualize such strings, instead of just using
memset().
The motivating reason is that a plain memset() that does not have
/observable/ effects, i. e. when we do not read from the buffer or
transfer it, can be removed by the compiler's optimizer in the
so-called
dead store elimination, voiding our attempt to clear the buffer
contents
before releasing it to the heap.
The named alternative functions are not being optimized away.
WORKAROUND:
* IMAP: Recognize SASL_IR advertisement of Cyrus IMAP 3.10.0...3.12.? as
synonymous to SASL-IR per RFC4959. Upstream bug reported at
https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/issues/5481 - and it was
quickly fixed in all their supported branches by patch releases.
CHANGES:
* Several documentation tweaks.
* As long as SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set, the source tarball build may
be reproducible now. Tested on Fedora 42.
* The Japanese translation [ja] has been updated by Takeshi Hamasaki.
* The Makefile should be compatible across a wider set of make
implementations,
beyond GNU make.
