ngIRCd Release 19

+ - MODE command: correctly return ERR_UNKNOWNMODE(472) numeric for + unknown channel modes, instead of ERR_UMODEUNKNOWNFLAG(501). + - ISUPPORT(005) numeric: add "O", "R", and "z" modes to "CHANMODES". + - Limit the number of list items in the reply of LIST (100), WHO (25), + WHOIS (10), and WHOWAS (25) commands. + - LIST command: compare pattern case insensitive. + - Limit the MODE command to handle a maximum number of 5 channel modes + that require an argument (+Ibkl) per call and report this number + in the ISUPPORT(005) numeric: "MODES=5". + - Fix handling of channel mode sequence with/without arguments. + For example, don't generate wrong error messages when handling + "MODE #chan +IIIIItn *!aa@b *!bb@c *!cc@d *!dd@e *!ee@f". + - When sending data on a connection, only try to get the type of + the client if there still is one assigned. This could trigger an + assertion and end the daemon in some error paths. + - Don't try to close already closed/invalid sockets to forked child + processes. This could potentially crash the daemon in some cases + with IDENT lookups enabled. + - WHOIS command: make sure that the reply ends with RPL_ENDOFWHOIS, + don't answer queries for IRC servers, make sure mask matching is + case-insensitive, and that RPL_ENDOFWHOIS numeric is sent with the + unmodified mask (like it has been received from the client). + - LINKS command: support <mask> parameter to limit the reply. + - Add 1 second penalty for every further target on PRIVMSG/NOTICE + commands: this reduces the possibility of flooding channels with + commands like "PRIVMSG/NOTICE #a,#n,#c,... :message" a little bit. + Problem noticed by Cahata, thanks! + - Display correct error message when "Server{UID|GID}" variabe in the + configuration file is invalid (not a number and no existing user). + - Update Copyright notices for 2012 :-) + - JOIN command: don't stop handling of channel lists when a single + channel cannot be joined (because of bad name, wrong key or channel + limit reached), but report an error and continue. And don't check + the channel limit and don't report with "too many channels" when + trying to join a channel that the client already is a member of. + - ISON command: reply with the correct upper-/lowercase nick names. - New configuration option "PAMIsOptional": when set, clients not sending a password are still allowed to connect: they won't become "identified" and keep the "~" character prepended to their supplied diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index d44b4a8..523db0f 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -10,6 +10,16 @@
