- Security fixes included
- From the ChangeLog:
Changes from 4.0.7 to 4.0.8:
> ---------------------------
> 1. Fix compilation error on HPUX.
> 2. Fix some compilation warnings.
> 3. Update man page with '-x' option.
> 4. Fix problems with 'make install'
>
>
> Changes from 4.0.6 to 4.0.7:
> ---------------------------
> 1. Fix '-V' for standalone.
> 2. Include 'man' directory in tarball.
>
>
> Changes from 4.0.5 to 4.0.6:
> ----------------------------
> 1. Minor fixes for true64.
> 2. Patch from Uli Zappe to fix SCRAM compilation bugs.
> 3. Minor fixes for true64.
> 4. poppassd now runs smbpasswd as user, not root, to avoid exploit
> 5. Remove -traditional-cpp from the compiler options for Darwin
> builds (otherwise build fails)
> 6. Open stdout and stderr as O_WRONLY instead of O_RDONLY so that
> should anything actually be written to them it will show up
> 7. When configured as --with-pam and required,
> include <pam/pam_appl.h> instead of <security/pam_appl.h>
> (otherwise build fails)
> 8. strdup the pw.pw_name field from getpwnam so that it's still
> valid by the time genpath is called; also added corresponding
> free (without this fix when the bug manifests, clients are
> erroneously told there are 0 messages in the mail drop
> regardless of the actual number)
> 9. Add a pam bug workaround at the beginning of main to do a
> pam_start and pam_end immediately when the program starts up
> in order to avoid bogus authentication failed messages from
> pam_authenticate later (only when configured as --with-pam)
> [ Thanks to Kyle McKay for changes 5-9 ]
> 10. Fixed error in configure script for Mac OS / Darwin.
> 11. Support chained certs for OpenSSL [from Daniel Senie].
> 12. Fixes to compile better on Linux [from Daniel Senie].
> 13. X-UIDL header no longer written when Update_status_hdrs is false
> [thanks to Helge Oldach]
> 14. Now calling SSL_shutdown() again if it fails the first time.
> 15. Now logging TLS errors when compiled with debugging and debug is
> enabled (instead of either) [thanks to Maks N. Polunin].
> 16. Config file now always closed (not just on error).
> 17. When using pam, Kerberos tickets are now destroyed.
> Otherwise dead tickets accumulate in cache directory which runs
> out of space quickly on busy server. Problem noted by Rodney
> McDuff ITS UQ. (Directory permissions on ticket cache dir need
> to be 1777).
> 18. Always log "Servicing request" (instead of just when debugging is
> on). This allows start of pop sessions to be logged always which
> is useful for diagnosis of problems.
> 19. Worked around problem on some systems causing SIGALRM to be masked,
> leaving hung pop processes which should have timed out waiting
> for a command from the client.
> [ Thanks to David Shrimpton for changes 16-19 ]
> 20. Now defaulting to "EXPIRE NEVER" instead of "EXPIRE 0".
> 21. Fix core dump on 64-bit Solaris 2.8 [thanks to Kenny Nguyen]
> 22. Log facility set on command line now applies to daemon as well.
> [Thanks to Helge Oldach]
> 23. '-y' to set log facility on command line now works again.
> 24. Allow '-V' as synonym for '-v' (to see version).
> 25. Process user and spool config files as user, not as root (fix
> security hole reported by Jens Steube)
> 26. Added "xtnd_xmit" as a boolean option to permit/deny XTND XMIT
> and 'x' as a command-line option to disable it. You should
> disable it unless you really need it, and even then it is better
> to move to SMTP AUTH.
> 27. popauth now opens trace file as user, not root (fix security
> hole reported by Jens Steube); also umask now set.
> 28. Fix race crash on FreeBSD (thanks to Martin Haller).
> 29. Resolve some compiler warnings.
> 30. Fix check for libcrypt on FreeBSD.
> 31. Added sample pam configuration file (also installed by 'make
> install')
> 32. Use generic error msg and sleep in more auth failure cases.
> 33. Added code to use mkstemp() instead of our perfectly safe usage
> of tempnam() because some compilers issue overly broad warnings
> implying that all uses of tempnam() are unsafe. To bypass,
> use '--enable-tempnam' with ./configure.
