-c-ares version 1.17.1
+c-ares version 1.18.1
-Due to a packaging issue with 1.17.0, we have released 1.17.1 to address that
-issue. See 1.17.0 release notes below..
+This is an urgent bugfix release for a regression made in 1.18.0.
+
+Bug fixes:
+ o ares_getaddrinfo() would return ai_addrlen of 16 for ipv6
+ adddresses rather than the sizeof(struct sockaddr_in6)
-c-ares version 1.17.0
-Security:
- o avoid read-heap-buffer-overflow in ares_parse_soa_reply found during
- fuzzing [2] [3]
- o Avoid theoretical buffer overflow in RC4 loop comparison [5]
- o Empty hquery->name could lead to invalid memory access [15]
- o ares_parse_{a,aaaa}_reply() could return a larger *naddrttls than was
- passed in [17]
+c-ares version 1.18.0
+
+This is a feature and bugfix release. It addresses a couple of new feature
+requests as well as a couple of bug fixes.
Changes:
- o Update help information for adig, acountry, and ahost [4]
- o Test Suite now uses dynamic system-assigned ports rather than hardcoded
- ports to prevent failures in containers [10]
- o Detect remote DNS server does not support EDNS using rules from RFC 6891 [12]
- o Source tree has been reorganized to use a more modern layout [13]
- o Allow parsing of CAA Resource Record [14]
+ o Add support for URI(Uniform Resource Identifier) records via
+ ares_parse_uri_reply() [1]
+ o Provide ares_nameser.h as a public interface as needed by NodeJS [5]
+ o Update URLs from c-ares.haxx.se to c-ares.org [9]
+ o During a domain search, treat ARES_ENODATA as ARES_NXDOMAIN so that the
+ search process will continue to the next domain in the search. [11]
+ o Turn ares_gethostbyname() into a wrapper for ares_getaddrinfo() as they
+ followed very similar code paths and ares_gethostbyaddr() has some more
+ desirable features such as priority sorting and parallel queries for
+ AF_UNSPEC. [12]
+ o ares_getaddrinfo() now contains a name element in the address info
+ structure as the last element. This is not an API or ABI break due to
+ the structure always being internally allocated and it being the last
+ element. [12]
+ o ares_parse_a_reply() and ares_parse_aaaa_reply() were nearly identical, those
+ now use the same helper functions for parsing rather than having their own
+ code. [12]
+ o RFC6761 Section 6.3 says "localhost" lookups need to be special cased to
+ return loopback addresses, and not forward queries to recursive dns servers.
+ On Windows this now returns all loopback addresses, on other systems it
+ returns 127.0.0.1 or ::1 always, and will never forward a request for
+ "localhost" to outside DNS servers. [13]
+ o Haiki: port [14]
Bug fixes:
- o readaddrinfo bad sizeof() [1]
- o Test cases should honor HAVE_WRITEV flag, not depend on WIN32 [6]
- o FQDN with trailing period should be queried first [7]
- o ares_getaddrinfo() was returning members of the struct as garbage values if
- unset, and was not honoring ai_socktype and ai_protocol hints. [8] [9]
- o ares_gethostbyname() with AF_UNSPEC and an ip address would fail [11]
- o Properly document ares_set_local_ip4() uses host byte order [16]
+ o add build to .gitignore [2]
+ o z/OS minor update, add missing semicolon in ares_init.c [3]
+ o Fix building when latest ax_code_coverage.m4 is imported [4]
+ o Work around autotools 'error: too many loops' and other newer autotools
+ import related bugs.
+ o MinGW cross builds need advapi32 link as lower case [6]
+ o Cygwin build fix due to containing both socket.h and winsock2.h [7]
+ o ares_expand_name should allow underscores (_) as SRV records legitimately use
+ them [8]
+ o Allow '/' as a valid character for a returned name for CNAME in-addr.arpa
+ delegation [10]
+ o ares_getaddrinfo() was not honoring HOSTALIASES [12]
+ o ares_getaddrinfo() had some test cases disabled due to a bug in the test
+ framework itself which has now been resolved [12]
+ o Due to Travis-CI becoming unfriendly to open-source, Cirrus-CI has now been
+ brought online for automated unit testing.
