Changes with Apache 2.3.0
[Remove entries to the current 2.0 and 2.2 section below, when backported]
*) Fix issue which could cause piped loggers to be orphaned and never
terminate after a graceful restart. PR 40651. [Joe Orton,
Ruediger Pluem]
*) mod_headers: support regexp-based editing of HTTP headers [Nick Kew]
*) mod_echo: Fix precedence problem in if statement. PR 40658.
[Larry Cipriani <lvc lucent.com>]
*) mod_mime_magic: Fix precedence problem in if statement. PR 40656.
[Larry Cipriani <lvc lucent.com>]
*) mod_cache: Eliminate a bogus error in the log when a filter returns
AP_FILTER_ERROR. [Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>]
*) mod_disk_cache: Make caching of large files possible on 32bit machines
by determining whether the cached file should be copied on disk rather
than loaded into RAM. PR39380 [Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>]
*) mod_mem_cache: Convert mod_mem_cache to use APR memory pool functions
by creating a root pool for object persistence across requests. This
also eliminates the need for custom serialization code.
[Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>]
*) mod_mem_cache: Memory leak fix: Unconditionally free the buffer.
[Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>]
*) mod_cache: From RFC3986 (section 6.2.3.) if a URI contains an
authority component and an empty path, the empty path is to be equivalent
to "/". It explicitly cites the following four URIs as equivalents:
http://example.com
http://example.com/
http://example.com:/
http://example.com:80/

*) mod_cache: Don't cache requests with a expires date in the past;
otherwise mod_cache will always try to cache the URL. This bug
might lead to numerous rename() errors on win32 if the URL was
previously cached. [Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>]
*) mod_disk_cache: Make sure that only positive integers are accepted
for the CacheMaxFileSize and CacheMinFileSize parameters in the
config file. PR39380 [Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>]
Ruediger Pluem
committed
*) mod_proxy_balancer: Set the new environment variable BALANCER_ROUTE_CHANGED
if a worker with a route different from the one supplied by the client
had been chosen or if the client supplied no routing information for
a balancer with sticky sessions. [Ruediger Pluem]
Ruediger Pluem
committed
*) mod_proxy: Print the correct error message for erroneous configured
ProxyPass directives. PR 40439. [serai lans-tv.com]
*) Allow htcacheclean, httxt2dbm, and fcgistarter to link apr/apr-util
statically like the older support programs.
[Eric Covener <covener gmail.com>]
*) ap_get_server_version() has been removed. Third-party modules must
now use ap_get_server_banner() or ap_get_server_description().
[Jeff Trawick]
*) mod_proxy_balancer: Extract stickysession routing information contained as
parameter in the URL correctly. PR 40400.
[Ruediger Pluem, Tomokazu Harada <harada sysrdc.ns-sol.co.jp>]
*) mod_ext_filter: Handle filter names which include capital letters.
PR 40323. [Jeff Trawick]
*) mod_deflate: Rework inflate output and deflate output filter to fix several
issues: Incorrect handling of flush buckets, potential memory leaks,
excessive memory usage in inflate output filter for large compressed
content. PR 39854. [Ruediger Pluem, Nick Kew, Justin Erenkrantz]
*) All MPMs: Introduce a check_config phase between pre_config and
open_logs, to allow modules to review interdependent configuration
directive values and adjust them while messages can still be logged
to the console. Handle relevant MPM directives during this phase
and format messages for both the console and the error log, as
appropriate. [Chris Darroch]
*) mod_proxy: Don't try to use dead backend connection. PR 37770.
*) mod_proxy: don't URLencode tilde in path component
[Stijn Hoop <stijn sandcat.nl>]
*) mpm_winnt: Fix return values from wait_for_many_objects.
The return value is index to the signaled thread in the
creted_threads array. We can not use WAIT_TIMEOUT because
his value is defined as 258, thus limiting the MaxThreads
to that value. [Mladen Turk]
*) SECURITY: CVE-2006-3747 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_rewrite: Fix an off-by-one security problem in the ldap scheme
handling. For some RewriteRules this could lead to a pointer being
written out of bounds. Reported by Mark Dowd of McAfee.
[Mark Cox]
*) mod_cache: While serving a cached entity ensure that filters that have
been applied to this cached entity before saving it to the cache are not
applied again. PR 40090. [Ruediger Pluem]
*) mod_proxy_ajp: Added cping/cpong support for the AJP protocol.
A new worker directive ping=timeout will cause CPING packet
to be send expecting CPONG packet within defined timeout.
In case the backend is too busy this will fail instead
sending the full header. [Mladen Turk]

to circumvent the symbolic link checks imposed by FollowSymLinks and
SymLinksIfOwnerMatch. [Nick Kew, Ruediger Pluem, William Rowe]

proxying directives. [Nick Kew]

about the useless use of AllowOverride. PR 39992.
[Darryl Miles <darryl darrylmiles.org>]

and the worker used during a request as environment variables. PR 39806.
[Brian <brectanu gmail.com>]

support. Also corrects the slashes for Windows. PR 15993. [William Rowe]

token parser worked while the resulting length was misinterpreted.
PR 29098 [Brock Bland <bbland serena.com>]
*) mod_isapi: Return 0 (failure) for more of the various ap_pass_brigade
attempts to stream the response at the client. PR 30022 [William Rowe]
William A. Rowe Jr
committed
*) mod_isapi: Ensure we walk through all the methods the developer may have
employed to report their HTTP status result code.
PR 16637 30033 28089 [Matt Lewandowsky <matt iamcode.net>, William Rowe]
*) New SSLLogLevelDebugDump [ None (default) | IO (not bytes) | Bytes ]
configures the I/O Dump of SSL traffic, when LogLevel is set to Debug.
The default is none as this is far greater debugging resolution than
the typical administrator is prepared to untangle. [William Rowe]
*) mod_disk_cache: If possible, check if the size of an object to cache is
within the configured boundaries before actually saving data.
[Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>]
*) mod_cache: Convert all values to seconds before comparing them when
checking whether to send a Warning header for a stale response.
PR 39713. [Owen Taylor <otaylor redhat.com>]
Ruediger Pluem

*) mod_disk_cache: Delete temporary files if they cannot be renamed to their
final name. [Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>]
*) Worker and event MPMs: Remove improper scoreboard updates which were
performed in the event of a fork() failure. [Chris Darroch]
*) Add support for fcgi:// proxies to mod_rewrite.
[Markus Schiegl <ms schiegl.com>]

loading of worker_score structure with mod_status, and remove unused
definitions relating to old life_status field.
[Chris Darroch <chrisd pearsoncmg.com>]

in ap_init_scoreboard(). [Chris Darroch <chrisd pearsoncmg.com>]

*) Event MPM: Fill in the scoreboard's tid field. PR 38736.
[Chris Darroch <chrisd pearsoncmg.com>]

invalidate it. Warn when input filter can invalidate it.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) mod_ssl: Fix spurious hostname mismatch warning for valid
wildcard certificates. PR 37911. [Nick Burch <nick torchbox.com>]
*) Authz: Add the new module mod_authn_core that will provide common
authn directives such as 'AuthType', 'AuthName'. Move the directives
'AuthType' and 'AuthName' out of the core module and merge mod_authz_alias
into mod_authn_core. [Brad Nicholes]
Ruediger Pluem
committed
*) Authz: Mark the directives 'Order', 'Allow', 'Deny' and 'Satisfy' as
deprecated and move them into the new module mod_access_compat which
can be loaded to provide backwards compatibility for these directives.
[Brad Nicholes]
Ruediger Pluem
committed
*) Authz: Move the 'Require' directive from the core module as well as
add the directives '<SatisfyAll>', '<SatisfyOne>', '<RequireAlias>'
and 'Reject' to mod_authz_core. The new directives introduce 'AND/OR'
logic into the authorization processing. [Brad Nicholes]
