-I'm proud to release version 1.4.11 of Roundup which fixes a number bugs
-and closes a potential security hole.
-
-All tracker maintainers must read the upgrading documentation to make sure
-the hole is fixed in their tracker.
-
-Other changes in this release:
-
-- Generic class editor may now restore retired items (thanks Ralf Hemmecke)
-- Fix security hole allowing user permission escalation (thanks Ralf
- Schlatterbeck)
-- More SSL fixes. SSL wants the underlying socket non-blocking. So we
- don't call socket.setdefaulttimeout in case of SSL. This apparently
- never raises a WantReadError from SSL.
- This also fixes a case where a WantReadError is raised and apparently
- the bytes already read are dropped (seems the WantReadError is really
- an error, not just an indication to retry).
-- Correct initial- and end-handshakes for SSL
-- Update FAQ to mention infinite redirects with pathological settings of
- the tracker->web variable. Closes issue2537286, thanks to "stuidge"
- for reporting.
-- Fix some format errors in italian translation file
-- Some bugs issue classifiers were causing database lookup errors
-- Fix security-problem: If user hasn't permission on a message (notably
- files and content properties) and is on the nosy list, the content was
- sent via email. We now check that user has permission on the message
- content and files properties. Thanks to Intevation for funding this
- fix.
-- Fix traceback on .../msgN/ url, this requests the file content and for
- apache mod_wsgi produced a traceback because the mime type is None for
- messages, fixes issue2550586, thanks to Thomas Arendsen Hein for
- reporting and to Intevation for funding the fix.
-- Handle OPTIONS http request method in wsgi handler, fixes issue2550587.
- Thanks to Thomas Arendsen Hein for reporting and to Intevation for
- funding the fix.
-- Add documentation for migrating to the Register permission and
- fix mailgw to use Register permission, fixes issue2550599
-- Fix styling of calendar to make it more usable, fixes issue2550608
-- Fix typo in email section of user guide, fixes issue2550607
-- Fix WSGI response code (thanks Peter Pöml)
-- Fix linking of an existing item to a newly created item, e.g.
- edit action in web template is name="issue-1@link@msg" value="msg1"
- would trigger a traceback about an unbound variable.
- Add new regression test for this case. May be related to (now closed)
- issue1177477. Thanks to Intevation for funding the fix.
-- Clean up all the places where role processing occurs. This is now in a
- central place in hyperdb.Class and is used consistently throughout.
- This also means now a template can override the way role processing
- occurs (e.g. for elaborate permission schemes). Thanks to intevation
- for funding the change.
-- Fix issue2550606 (german translation bug) "an hour" is only used in
- the context "in an hour" or "an hour ago" which translates to german
- "in einer Stunde" or "vor einer Stunde". So "an hour" is translated
- "einer Stunde" (which sounds wrong at first). Also note that date.py
- already has a comment saying "XXX this is internationally broken" --
- but at least there's a workaround for german :-) Thanks to Chris
- (radioking) for reporting.
+This is the announcement of version 1.4.18 of Roundup, a Bug-Fix Release
+for a critical bug in roundups mail gateway.
+The bug will lead to files being unlinked from issues when mails without
+attachment are received for an existing issue. See the "Software
+Upgrade" guidelines in doc/announcement.txt (or the html version) for a
+script you can run to find out potentially affected issues and how to
+fix this. As usual some minor features and some bug fixes:
+
+Features:
+
+- Norwegian Bokmal translation by Christian Aastorp
+- Allow to specify additional cc and bcc emails (not roundup users) for
+ nosymessage used by the nosyreaction reactor. (Ralf)
+
+Fixed:
+
+- Fix file-unlink bug in mailgw (Ralfs oversight when refactoring the mail
+ gateway code) -- if a message is sent that contains no attachments,
+ all previous files of the issue are unlinked, thanks to Rafal
+ Bisingier for reporting and proposing a fix.
+ I've now added a regression test that catches this issue.
If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow
the "Software Upgrade" guidelines given in the maintenance documentation.
-Roundup requires python 2.3 or later (but not 3+) for correct operation.
