- update to 3.8.6
* Bugfix (defect introduced: Postfix 2.3, date 20051222): the
Dovecot auth client did not reset the 'reason' from a previous
Dovecot auth service response, before parsing the next Dovecot
auth server response in the same SMTP session, resulting in a
nonsensical "authentication failed" warning message. Reported
by Stephan Bosch.
* Bugfix (defect introduced: Postfix 3.1, date: 20151128):
"postqueue -j" produced broken JSON when escaping a control
character as \uXXXX. Found during code maintenance.
* Cleanup: this fixes posttls-finger certificate match expectations
for all TLS security levels, including warnings for levels that
don't implement certificate matching. By Viktor Dukhovni.
* Bugfix (defect introduced: Postfix 2.3): after prepending a
header at the top of a message (with an access(5), header_checks(5)
or Milter action), the Postfix Milter "delete header" or "update
header" action was skipping the prepended header, instead of
skipping the Postfix-generated Received: header. Problem report
by Carlos Velasco.
* Workaround: tlsmgr logfile spam. Reportedly, some OS lies under
load: it says that a socket is readable, then it says that the
socket has unread data, and then it says that read returns EOF,
causing Postfix to spam the log with a warning message.
* Bugfix (defect introduced: Postfix 3.4): the SMTP server's BDAT
command handler could be tricked to read $message_size_limit
bytes into memory. Found during code maintenance.
* Safety: limit the total size of DNS lookup results to 100
records; drop the excess records, and log a warning. This limit
is 20x larger than the number of server addresses that the
Postfix SMTP client is willing to consider when delivering mail,
and is far below the number of records that could cause a tail
recursion crash in dns_rr_append() as reported by Toshifumi
Sakaguchi. This fix also limits the number of DNS requests that
a check_*_*_access restriction can make.
* Performance, related to the previous problem: eliminate worst-case
behavior where the queue manager could defer delivery to all
destinations over a specific delivery transport, after only a
single delivery agent crash. The scheduler now throttles
deliveries to one destination, and allows other deliveries to
keep making progress.
- change to functioning mirror (http://cdn.postfix.johnriley.me/
has been dead for a while although it is still listed upstream)
- make output of %setup less verbose by restoring -q option
