v2.12.0: Nov 16 2023

### Major changes

Most of the known issues leading to quadratic behavior in the XML parser
were fixed. Internal hash tables were rewritten to reduce memory
consumption.

Starting with this release, it should be enough to add the --with-legacy
configuration option to provide maximum ABI compatibility. For example,
if a code module was removed from the default configuration, the option
will add stubs for the removed symbols.

libxml2 will now store global variables in thread-local storage if supported
by the compiler. This avoids allocating the data lazily which can result in
a fatal error condition. A new API function xmlCheckThreadLocalStorage
was added so the allocation can be checked earlier if compiler TLS is not
supported. To prepare for future improvements, some API functions now expect
or return a const xmlError struct.

Several cyclic dependencies in public header files were fixed. As a result,
certain headers won't include other headers as before.

Refactoring of the encoding code has been mostly completed. Calling
xmlSwitchEncoding from client code is now fully supported, for example to
override the encoding for the push parser.

When parsing data from memory, libxml2 will now stream data chunk by chunk
instead of copying the whole buffer (possibly twice with encodings),
reducing peak memory consumption considerably.

A new API function xmlCtxtSetMaxAmplification was added to allow parsing
of files that would otherwise trigger the billion laughs protection.

Several bugs in the regex determinism checks were fixed. Invalid XML
Schemas which previous versions erroneously accepted will now be
rejected.

v2.11.0: Apr 28 2023

### Major changes

Protection against entity expansion attacks, also known as "billion laughs"
has been greatly improved. Malicious files should be detected reliably now
and false positives should be reduced. It is possible though that large
documents which make heavy use of entities are rejected now.

This release finally fixes symbol visibility on UNIX systems. Internal
symbols will now be hidden. While these symbols were never declared in public
headers, it was still possible to declare them manually. Now this won't work.

All symbol information has been removed from the ELF version script to fix
link errors with --no-undefined-version. The version nodes are kept so it
should still be possible to run binaries linked against older versions.

About 90 memory errors in code paths handling malloc failures have been fixed.
While these issues shouldn't impact security, this improves robustness under
memory pressure.

The XInclude engine has been reworked to properly support nested includes.

Several cases of quadratic behavior in the XML push parser have been fixed.

Refactoring has begun on some buffering and encoding code with the goal of
simplifying this part of the code base and improving error reporting.

Other highlights:

- Consolidated private header files.
- Major rework of the autoconf build.
- Deprecated several outdated and internal functions.

Special thanks to Google's Open Source Security Subsidies program for
sponsoring much of the work on this release!
