+ngIRCd 21~rc1 (2013-10-05)
+
+ - Actually KILL clients on GLINE/KLINE. (Closes bug #156)
+ - Add support to show all user links using the "STATS L" (uppercase)
+ command (restricted to IRC Operators).
+ - Implement configurable SSL cipher list selection for GnuTLS and OpenSSL
+ using the new configuration option "CipherList". In addition, this
+ changes the defaults to more secure values: "HIGH:!aNULL:@STRENGTH" for
+ OpenSSL, and "SECURE128" for GnuTLS.
+ - Show connection flag "s" (SSL) in RPL_TRACE{LINK|SERVER} messages: now
+ you can check if a server-to-server link is SSL-encrypted or not using
+ the IRC "TRACE" command.
+ - Implement the new configuration option "DefaultUserModes" which lists
+ user modes that become automatically set on new local clients right
+ after login. Please note that only modes can be set that the client
+ could set on itself, so you can't set "a" (away) or "o" (IRC Op),
+ for example! User modes "i" (invisible) or "x" (cloaked) etc. are
+ "interesting", though. (Closes bug #160)
+ - Add support for the new METADATA "account" property, which allows
+ services to automatically identify users after netsplits and across
+ service restarts.
- Implement a new configuration option "AllowedChannelTypes" that lists
all allowed channel types (channel prefixes) for newly created channels
on the local server. By default, all supported channel types are allowed.
and then is used to output individual help texts to specific topics.
Please see the file ./doc/Commands.txt for details.
+ngIRCd 20.3 (2013-08-23)
+
+ - This release is a bugfix release only, without new features.
+ - Security: Fix a denial of service bug (server crash) which could happen
+ when the configuration option "NoticeAuth" is enabled (which is NOT the
+ default) and ngIRCd failed to send the "notice auth" messages to new
+ clients connecting to the server (CVE-2013-5580).
