We've fixed several security issues, in particular +some XSS issues. We've also dropped support for python 2.4 with this +release. This release also introduces some minor features and, as usual, +fixes some bugs: Features: -- Xapian indexing improved: Slightly faster and slightly smaller database. - Closes issue2550687. Thanks to Olly Betts for the patch. (Bernhard Reiter) -- PostgreSQL backend minor improvement: database creation less likely to fail - for PostgreSQL versions >= 8.1 as the table "postgres" is used by default. - Closes issue2550543. Thanks to Kai Storbeck for the patch. (Bernhard Reiter) -- Allow HTMLRequest.batch to filter on other permissions than "View" - (e.g. on the new "Search" permission") by adding a "permission" - parameter. Thanks to Eli Collins for the patch. Closes issue2550699. (Ralf) +- Experimental support for the new Chameleon templating engine. + We now have two configurable templating engines, the old Zope TAL + templates (called zopetal in the config) and the new Chameleon (called + chameleon in the config). A new config-option "template_engine" under + [main] can take these config-options, the default is zopetal. + Thanks to Cheer Xiao for the idea of making this configurable *and* + for the actual implementation! (Ralf) + WARNING: Chameleon support is highly experimental and *not* recommended for + production use. It has known performance issues and i18n is not yet + functioning. It's still under active development. Only use this feature if + you want to experiment with Chameleon and/or help with Roundup + developement. If you found a bug in Chameleon support, please report after + testing against latest Roundup source from the Mercurial repository. +- issue2550678: Allow pagesize=-1 which returns all results. + Suggested and implemented by John Kristensen. + Tested by Satchidanand Haridas. (Bernhard) +- Allow to turn off translation of generated html options in menu method + of LinkHTMLProperty and MultilinkHTMLProperty -- default is + translation as it used to be (Ralf) +- Sending of OpenPGP encrypted mail to all users or selected users (via + roles) is now working. (Ralf) +- Add config-option "nosy" to messages_to_author setting in [nosy] + section of config: This will send a message to the author only + in the case where the author is on the nosy-list (either added + earlier or via the add_author setting). Current config-options + for this setting will send / not send to author without considering + the nosy list. (Ralf) Fixed: -- Installation: Fixed an issue that prevented use of EasyInstall - and a Python egg. Thanks to Satchidanand Haridas for the patch and - John Kristensen for testing it. (Bernhard Reiter) -- The PostgreSQL backend quotes database names now for CREATE and DROP, - enabling more exotic tracker names. Closes issue2550497. - Thanks to Sebastian Harl for providing the patch. (Bernhard Reiter) -- Updated the url to point to www.roundup-tracker.org in two places in the - docs. (Bernhard Reiter) -- Do not depend on a CPython implementation detail anymore to make Roundup - more compatible with other Python implementations like PyPy. - Closes issue2550707. Thanks to Christof Meerwald. (Bernhard Reiter, Richard) -- Yet another fix to the mail gateway, messages got *all* files of - an issue, not just the new ones. Thanks to Rafal Bisingier for - reporting and proposing a fix. The regression test was updated. +- issue2550730: FAQ has broken link to Zope book. Reported and fixed by + John Rouillard.(Bernhard) +- issue2550728: remove buggy parentheses in TAL/DummyEngine.py. + Reported and fixed by Ralf Hemmecke. (Bernhard) +- issue2550715: IndexError when requesting non-existing file via http. + Reported and fixed by Cedric Krier. (Bernhard) +- issue2550712: exportcsvaction errors poorly when given invalid columns. + Reported by Will Kahn-Greene, fixed by Cedric Krier. (Bernhard) +- issue2550695: 'No sort or group' settings not retained when editing queries. + Reported and fixed by John Kristensen. Tested by Satchidanand Haridas. + (Bernhard) +- Fix matching of incoming email addresses to the alternate_addresses + field of a user -- this would match substrings, e.g. if the user has + discuss-support@example.com as an alternate email and an incoming mail + is addressed to support@example.com this would (wrongly) match. (Ralf) +- issue2550729: Fix password history display for anydbm backend, thanks + to Ralf Hemmecke for reporting. (Ralf) +- OpenPGP support is again working (pyme API has changed significantly) and + we now have a regression test. We now take care that bounce-messages + for incoming encrypted mails or mails where the policy dictates that + outgoing traffic should be encrypted is actually OpenPGP encrypted. (Ralf) +- Ignore confirm set() fields by themselves in the absence of non-"confirm" + values; otherwise a bare confirm field can be used to change the a + password. Reported by Cam Blackwood. (Ralf) +- Updated version of simplified Chinese message file by Cheer Xiao: + Corrected some mistakes, added a few more items and did some + formating. (Ralf) +- Fix xmlrpc URL parsing so that passwords may contain a ':' character (Ralf) -- Fix version numbers in upgrade documentation, the file-unlink defect - was in 1.4.17 not 1.4.16. Thanks to Rafal Bisingier. (Ralf) -- Fix encoded email header parsing if multiple encoded and non-encoded - parts are present. RFC2047 specifies that spacing is removed only - between encoded parts, we always removed the space. Note that this bug - was present before mail gateway refactoring :-) Thanks for thorough - testing of mail gateway code by Rafal Bisingier. (Ralf) -- The "Retire" permission was not being registered. (Richard) -- Fix StringIO issue2550713: io.StringIO in newer versions of python - returns unicode strings and expects a unicode string in the - constructor. Unfortunately csv doesn't handle unicode (yet). So we - need to use a BytesIO which gets the utf-8 string from the - web-interface. Compatibility for old versions by using - StringIO.StringIO for emulating a io.BytesIO also works. - Thanks to Cedric Krier for reporting. Closes issue2550713. - Added a regression test for EditCSVAction (Ralf) -- Fix issue2550691 where a Unix From-Header was sometimes inserted in - outgoing emails, thanks to Joseph Myers for the patch. (Ralf) +- Be more tolerant when parsing RFC2047 encoded mail headers. Use + backported version of my proposed changes to + email.header.decode_header in http://bugs.python.org/issue1079 + (Ralf) +- issue2550684 Fix XSS vulnerability when username contains HTML code, + thanks to Thomas Arendsen Hein for reporting and patch. (Ralf) +- issue2550711 Fix XSS vulnerability in @action parameter, + thanks to "om" for reporting. (Ralf) +- issue2550535 In some cases even when keep_quoted_text=yes is + configured we would strip quoted sections. This hit the python + bug-tracker especially for python interpreter examples with leading + '>>>' strings. The fix is slightly different compared to the proposal + as this broke keep_quoted_text=no in certain cases. We also fix a bug + where keep_quoted_text=no would drop the last line of a non-quoted + section if there wasn't an empty line between the next quotes. (Ralf) +- issue2431638 wrong registration link in bounce mail for non-registered + users reported *years* ago by anonymous (Ralf) +- Fix doc/upgrading.txt which produces errors with latest docutils about + wrong block structure. Fix .gitignore in doc directory. Thanks to + Cheer Xiao for the patches. (Ralf) +- Fix wrong execute permissions on some files, thanks to Cheer Xiao for + the patch. (Ralf) +- Fix override of TemplatingUtils in instance.py, thanks to Cheer Xiao + for the patch. (Ralf) +- Fix another XSS with the "otk" parameter, thanks to Jesse Ruderman for + reporting. (Ralf) +- Mark cookies HttpOnly and -- if https is used -- secure. Fixes + issue2550689, but is untested if this really works in browsers. + Thanks to Joseph Myers for reporting. (Ralf) +- Fix another XSS with the ok- and error message, see issue2550724. We + solve this differently from the proposals in the bug-report by not + allowing *any* html-tags in ok/error messages anymore. Thanks to + David Benjamin for the bug-report and to Ezio Melotti for several + proposed fixes.
