distcc 2.13 is out. This fixes a possible security problem with access control and IPv6, so I recommend that you upgrade.
Thankyou to everyone who sent patches or reports. distcc-2.13 "Carnal Bunt" 2004-03-02 SECURITY: * Enforce IPv4 access control lists when the daemon is listening on an IPv6 port. This only applies when the server was compiled using --enable-rfc2553 and run with --allow. FEATURES: * Hash comments are allowed in host list files. INTERNAL: * Use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT on Linux to avoid some wasted context switching when a new connection comes in to the server. BUG FIXES: * Some fixes for connections over SSH when built using --enable-rfc2553. Reported by Jeff Rizzo. * Handle arguments like "-xcpp" and "-Wa,-xarch=v8". Suggested by Ben Scarlet. * Fix resource exhaustion when DISTCC_SAVE_TEMPS is set. Reported by Mark DeGeorge. * Fix problems in running IPv6-enabled builds on kernels without IPv6 support. Reported by Lisa Seelye. DOCUMENTATION: * More instructions for distributors/packagers. PORTABILITY: * Many portability patches from Albert Chin. These patches were tested on: AIX 4.3.2, 5.1; HP-UX 10.20, 11.00, 11i; IRIX 6.5; Redhat Linux 7.1, 9; Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, 7, 8, 9; Tru64 UNIX 4.0D, 5.1. * Possibly fix mmap problem on HP-UX with compressed transfers. Reported by Joe Buehler. TESTING: * Add test for compilation with compression. * Testsuite portability patch from Albert Chin. The tests pass on: HP-UX 10.20, 11.00, 11i; IRIX 6.5; Redhat Linux7.1, 9; Solaris 7, 8, 9; Tru64 UNIX 4.0d, 5.1. -- Martin
