The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the
availability of the Squid-3.1.16 release!


This release brings bug fixes for earlier releases and several enhancements to improve bug finding in 3.1.


 Bug 3326: miss_access incorrect default.

If you use miss_access in your configuration it is important that you upgrade to this release or apply the patch provided in 3.1.16 changesets archive.

http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.1/changesets/squid-3.1-10373.patch

A review of the miss_access controls in your configuration maybe required after the update. Documentation of this directive has also been clarified in this release to express what it actually does during the request handling process in Squid. Several of the 'bugs' were related to misunderstandings about miss_access correct usage and behaviour.


 Bug 3368: Unhandled exceptions are not logged (workaround)

In the last few releases there have been a growing number of reports about exception crashes. This release seeks to report those a lot better for debugging. If you are experiencing any such problems, please test with this release to get better bug report traces and a faster problem resolution.


 Updated OpenSSL 1.0.0 version checks.

This resolves several compile issues we were hearing about with openssl v1.0.0a to 1.0.0d. There are still some issues remaining. If you are experiencing errors building Squid against openssl 1.0.0 please use this release as now the minimum required version for bug reports and updates.


 Bug #3241: squid_kerb_auth cross compilation fix

The resolves the last known issue with cross-compilation in 3.1 kerberos authentication helpers.


See the ChangeLog for the list of other minor changes in this release.

All users of Squid-3 are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible.
