Eric Covener committed
     core: Fix a crash with ErrorDocument 400 pointing to a local URL-path 
     with the INCLUDES filter active, introduced in 2.4.11. PR 57531. 
     [Yann Ylavic]

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2015-0228 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_lua: A maliciously crafted websockets PING after a script
     calls r:wsupgrade() can cause a child process crash. 
     [Edward Lu <Chaosed0 gmail.com>]

  *) mod_logio: Add LogIOTrackTTFB and %^FB logformat to log the time 
     taken to start writing response headers. [Eric Covener]

  *) mod_ssl: Avoid compilation errors with LibreSSL related to
     the use of ENGINE_CTRL_CHIL_SET_FORKCHECK. 
     [Stuart Henderson <sthen openbsd.org>]

  *) mod_proxy_http: Use the "Connection: close" header for requests to
     backends not recycling connections (disablereuse), including the default
     reverse and forward proxies.  [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_proxy: Add ap_connection_reusable() for checking if a connection
     is reusable as of this point in processing.  [Jeff Trawick]

  *) mod_proxy_wstunnel: Avoid an empty response by failing with 502 (Bad
     Gateway) when no response is ever received from the backend.
     [Jan Kaluza]

  *) core_filters: restore/disable TCP_NOPUSH option after non-blocking
  *) core: Initialize scoreboard's used optional functions on graceful restarts
     to avoid a crash when relocation occurs.  PR 57177.  [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_dav: Avoid a potential integer underflow in the lock timeout value sent
     back to a client. The answer to a LOCK request could be an extremly large
     integer if the time needed to lock the resource was longer that the
     requested timeout given in the LOCK request. In such a case, we now answer
     "Second-0".  PR55420
     [Christophe Jaillet]

  *) mod_cgid: Within the first minute of a server start or restart, 
     allow mod_cgid to retry connecting to its daemon process. Previously,
     'No such file or directory: unable to connect to cgi daemon...' could
     be logged without an actual retry. PR57685. 
     [Edward Lu <Chaosed0 gmail.com>]
     
  *) mod_proxy: use the original (non absolute) form of the request-line's URI
     for requests embedded in CONNECT payloads used to connect SSL backends via
     a ProxyRemote forward-proxy.  PR 55892.  [Hendrik Harms <hendrik.harms
     gmail com>, William Rowe, Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_proxy_connect/wstunnel: If both client and backend sides get readable
     at the same time, don't lose errors occuring while forwarding on the first
     side when none occurs next on the other side, and abort.  [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_rewrite: Improve relative substitutions in per-directory/htaccess
     context for directories found by mod_userdir and mod_alias.  These no
     longer require RewriteBase to be specified. [Eric Covener]

  *) mod_proxy_http: Don't expect the backend to ack the "Connection: close" to
     finally close those not meant to be kept alive by SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive
     or force-proxy-request-1.0.  [Yann Ylavic]

  *) core: If explicitly configured, use the KeepaliveTimeout value of the
     virtual host which handled the latest request on the connection, or by
     default the one of the first virtual host bound to the same IP:port.
     PR56226.  [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_lua: After a r:wsupgrade(), mod_lua was not properly
     responding to a websockets PING but instead invoking the specified 
     script. PR57524. [Edward Lu <Chaosed0 gmail.com>]

  *) mod_ssl: Add the SSL_CLIENT_CERT_RFC4523_CEA variable, which provides
     a combination of certificate serialNumber and issuer as defined by
     CertificateExactMatch in RFC4523. [Graham Leggett]

  *) core: Add expression support to ErrorDocument. Switch from a fixed
     sized 664 byte array per merge to a hash table. [Graham Leggett]

  *) ab: Add missing longest request (100%) to CSV export.
     [Marcin Fabrykowski <bugzilla fabrykowski.pl>] 

  *) mod_macro: Clear macros before initialization to avoid use-after-free
     on startup or restart when the module is linked statically. PR 57525
     [apache.org tech.futurequest.net, Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_alias: Introduce expression parser support for Alias, ScriptAlias
     and Redirect. [Graham Leggett]

  *) mod_ssl: 'SSLProtocol ALL' was being ignored in virtual host context. 
     PR 57100.  [Michael Kaufmann <apache-bugzilla michael-kaufmann.ch>,
     Yann Ylavic]

  *) mpm_event: Avoid access to the scoreboard from the connection while
     it is suspended (waiting for events).  [Eric Covener, Jeff Trawick]

  *) mod_ssl: Fix renegotiation failures redirected to an ErrorDocument.
     PR 57334.  [Yann Ylavic].

  *) mod_deflate: A misplaced check prevents limiting small bodies with the
     new inflate limits. PR56872. [Edward Lu, Eric Covener, Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_proxy_ajp: Forward SSL protocol name (SSLv3, TLSv1.1 etc.) as a
     request attribute to the backend. Recent Tomcat versions will extract
     it and provide it as a servlet request attribute named
     "org.apache.tomcat.util.net.secure_protocol_version". [Rainer Jung]

  *) core: Optimize string concatenation in expression parser when evaluating
     a string expression. [Rainer Jung]

  *) acinclude.m4: Generate #LoadModule directive in default httpd.conf for
     every --enable-mpms-shared. PR 53882.  [olli hauer <ohauer gmx.de>,
     Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_authn_dbd: Fix the error message logged in case of error while querying
     the database. This is associated to AH01656 and AH01661. [Christophe Jaillet]

     because it may be evaluated inside <RequireAny>. PR55523. [Eric Covener]

Changes with Apache 2.4.12

  *) mpm_winnt: Accept utf-8 (Unicode) service names and descriptions for
     internationalization.  [William Rowe]

  *) mpm_winnt: Normalize the error and status messages emitted by service.c,
     the service control interface for Windows.  [William Rowe]
  *) configure: Fix --enable-v4-mapped configuration on *BSD. PR 53824.
     [ olli hauer <ohauer gmx.de>, Yann Ylavic ]

  *) Reverted <DirectoryMatch > behavior regression introduced in 2.4.11
     (not released).

Changes with Apache 2.4.11
  
  *) SECURITY: CVE-2014-3583 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_proxy_fcgi: Fix a potential crash due to buffer over-read, with 
     response headers' size above 8K.  [Yann Ylavic, Jeff Trawick]

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2014-3581 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_cache: Avoid a crash when Content-Type has an empty value.
     PR 56924.  [Mark Montague <mark catseye.org>, Jan Kaluza]

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2014-8109 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_lua: Fix handling of the Require line when a LuaAuthzProvider is
     used in multiple Require directives with different arguments.
     PR57204 [Edward Lu <Chaosed0 gmail.com>]

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2013-5704 (cve.mitre.org)
     core: HTTP trailers could be used to replace HTTP headers
     late during request processing, potentially undoing or
     otherwise confusing modules that examined or modified
     request headers earlier.  Adds "MergeTrailers" directive to restore
     legacy behavior.  [Edward Lu, Yann Ylavic, Joe Orton, Eric Covener]

  *) mod_buffer: Forward flushed input data immediately and avoid (unlikely)
     access to freed memory. [Yann Ylavic, Christophe Jaillet]

  *) core: Add CGIPassAuth directive to control whether HTTP authorization
     headers are passed to scripts as CGI variables.  PR 56855.  [Jeff 
     Trawick]

  *) mod_ssl: New directive SSLSessionTickets (On|Off).
     The directive controls the use of TLS session tickets (RFC 5077),
     default value is "On" (unchanged behavior).
     Session ticket creation uses a random key created during web
     server startup and recreated during restarts. No other key
     recreation mechanism is available currently. Therefore using session
     tickets without restarting the web server with an appropriate frequency
     (e.g. daily) compromises perfect forward secrecy. [Rainer Jung]

  *) mod_proxy_fcgi: Provide some basic alternate options for specifying 
     how PATH_INFO is passed to FastCGI backends by adding significance to
     the value of proxy-fcgi-pathinfo. PR 55329. [Eric Covener]
 
  *) mod_proxy_fcgi: Enable UDS backends configured with SetHandler/RewriteRule
     to opt-in to connection reuse and other Proxy options via explicitly
     declared "proxy workers" (<Proxy unix:... enablereuse=on max=...)
     [Eric Covener]

  *) mod_proxy: Add "enablereuse" option as the inverse of "disablereuse".
     [Eric Covener]

  *) mod_proxy_fcgi: Enable opt-in to TCP connection reuse by explicitly
     setting proxy option disablereuse=off. [Eric Covener] PR 57378.

  *) event: Update the internal "connection id" when requests
     move from thread to thread. Reuse can confuse modules like
     mod_cgid. PR 57435. [Michael Thorpe <mike gistnet.com>]

  *) mod_proxy_fcgi: Remove proxy:balancer:// prefix from SCRIPT_FILENAME
     passed to fastcgi backends. [Eric Covener]
