RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
* PR: 27023 Cookie could not delivered if the cookie made before
proxy module. Jim will wait 24 hours but not hold
off on 1.3.30 after that to address this. Will be
placed in 'NON-SHOWSTOPPERS' at that point.
RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
* isn't ap_die() broken with recognizing recursive errors
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
+1: jeff, jim
* Current vote on 3 PRs for inclusion:
Bugz #17877 (passing chunked encoding thru proxy)
(still checking if RFC compliant... vote is on the
correctness of the patch code only).
+1: jim, chuck, minfrin
Bugz #9181 (Unable to set headers on non-2XX responses)
+1: Martin, Jim
Gnats #10246 (Add ProxyConnAllow directive)
+0: Martin (or rather -.5, see dev@ Message
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
* htpasswd.c and htdigest.c use tmpnam()... consider using
mkstemp() when available.
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status:
* Dean's "unescaping hell" (unescaping the various URI components
at the right time and place, esp. unescaping the host name).
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status:
* Martin observed a core dump because a ipaddr_chain struct contains
a NULL-"server" pointer when being dereferenced by invoking "httpd -S".
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status: Workaround enabled. Clean solution can come after 1.3.19
* long pathnames with many components and no AllowOverride None
Workaround is to define <Directory /> with AllowOverride None,
which is something all sites should do in any case.
Status: Marc was looking at it. (Will asks 'wasn't this patched?')
* Ronald Tschal�r's patch to mod_proxy to allow other modules to
set headers too (needed by mod_auth_digest)
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status:
Available Patches (Most likely, will be ported to 2.0 as appropriate):
* A rewrite of ap_unparse_uri_components() by Jeffrey W. Baker
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> to more fully close some segfault potential.
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status: Jim +1 (for 1.3.19), Martin +0
* Andrew Ford's patch (1999/12/05) to add absolute times to mod_expires
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status: Martin +1, Jim +1, Ken +1 (on concept)
* Raymond S Brand's path to mod_autoindex to fix the header/readme
include processing so the envariables are correct for the included
documents. (Actually, there are two variants in the patch message,
for two different ways of doing it.)
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status: Martin +1(concept)
* Jayaram's patch (10/27/99) for bugfix to mod_autoindex
IndexIgnore <file-extension> should hide the files with this file-
extension in directory listings. This was NOT happening because the
total filename was being compared with the file-extension.
Status: Martin +1(untested), Ken +1(untested)
* Salvador Ortiz Garcia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>' patch to allow DirectoryIndex
to refer to URIs for non-static resources.
MID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status: Ken +1 (on concept), Lars +1 (on concept)
* Brian Havard's patch to remove dependency of mod_auth_dbm on mod_auth.
(PR#2598)
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status: Lars +1 (on concept), Ken +1 (on concept),
Martin +1(untested)
* Aidan Cully's patch to allow assignment of 'ownership' of resources
to either the server UID or the file's owner.
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Status: Ken +1, Dean +1, Randy +1, Lars +0, Jim +1
In progress:
Needs patch:
* get_path_info bug; ap_get_remote_host should be ap_vformatter instead.
See: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URI issues
- RFC2068 requires a server to recognize its own IP addr(s) in
dot notation, we do this fine if the user follows the
dns-caveats documentation... we should handle it in the case
the user doesn't ever supply a dot-notation address.
* Problems dealing with .-rooted domain names such as "twinlark."
versus "twinlark.arctic.org.". See the thread containing
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for more
details. In particular this affects the correctness of the
proxy and the vhost mechanism.
* proxy_*_canon routines use r->proxyreq incorrectly. See
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Open issues:
* Should we provide a way to force CustomError responses past IE's
'prettify-if-less-than-N-bytes' bogosity?
* general/3787: SERVER_PORT is always 80 if client comes to any port
=> needs review by the protocol guys, I think.
* All DBMs suffer from confusion in dbmmanage (perl script) since the
dbmmanage creates in the first-matched dbm format. This is not
necessarily the library that Apache was built with. Aught to
rewrite dbmmanage with the proper library for clean administration.
* Marc's socket options like source routing (kill them?)
Marc, Martin say Yes
* In ap_bclose() there's no test that (fb->fd != -1) -- so it's
possible that it'll do something completely bogus when it's
used for read-only things. - Dean Gaudet
* Roy's HTTP/1.1 Wishlist items:
1) byte range error handling
* use of spawnvp in uncompress_child in mod_mime_magic - doesn't
use the new child_info structure, is this still safe? Needs to be
looked at.
* suexec doesn't understand argv parameters; e.g.
<!--#exec cmd="./ls -l" -->
fails even when "ls" is in the same directory because suexec is trying
to stat a file called "ls -l". A patch for this is available at
http://www.xnet.com/~emarshal/suexec.diff
and it's not bad except that it doesn't handle programs with spaces in
the filename (think win32, or samba-mounted filesystems). There are
several PR's to this and I don't see for security reasons why we can't
accomodate it, though it does add complexity to suexec.c.
Accepting quoted executable names solves that issue, except that the
exec cmd="" parsing needs to accept escaped quotes.
PR #1120
Brian: +1
Status: Already resolved in Apache 2.0 - exec is defined as passing
the cmd="" argument as argv[0], which means it is -only- the
file name to execute (with spaces allowed in the name.)
Win32/Netware specific issues:
* mod_rewrite's cache isn't threadsafe, needs a mutex on Win32/Netware
(and OS/2?)
* apparently either "BrowserMatch" or the "nokeepalive" variable
cause instability - see PR#1729.
