Dear all,
We are glad to announce the final release of NaviServer 5.0.0, marking
the most significant update in the project’s history with over 70,000
lines of changes. This release delivers robust security enhancements,
modernized infrastructure, and improved scalability. Key highlights include:
*
*Security by Default*: HTTP client requests now validate server
certificates automatically, with configurable trust exceptions and a
bundled CA root store. A new pluggable authorization framework
(|ns_auth|) enables scriptable request- and user-level access control.
*
*Modernized Core*: Unix domain socket support, case-insensitive
|ns_set|, Argon2 password hashing, and streamlined configuration via
environment variables (ideal for containers). The reverse proxy is
now built into the core, with new forward proxy capabilities.
*
*Enhanced Observability and Scalability*: Improved logging (dynamic
paths, rotation, and new "Security" severity), detailed connection
diagnostics (|ns_conn urldict|, |ns_connchan debug|), runtime
introspection (|ns_http keepalives|, |ns_info buildinfo|),
persistent client connections, and streaming HTTP client processing.
*Backward Compatibility & Future-Readiness*
While introducing cutting-edge features, NaviServer 5.0.0 maintains
strong backward compatibility, with deprecated APIs clearly documented
and modern replacements provided (e.g., |ns_urlencode| →
|ns_percentencode|). The release introduces/extends over 50 Tcl commands
and subcommands. The upgrade to MPL 1.2 and Tcl 9 support ensures
long-term sustainability. Over 20 community-contributed modules (like
|nsdbpg|, |nssmtpd|) have been updated in lockstep.
The following people contributed to this release:
Alexander Danilov, Andrew Piskorski, Antonio Pisano, Brendan
Graves, Brian Fenton, Danilo Raynor, David F, David Osborne,
Filip Minic, Georg Lehner, Gustaf Neumann, Hector Romojaro, Joe
Oldak, Oleg Oleinick, Priyank Jalu, Thomas Renner, Zoran Vasiljevic

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bug Fixes
Stability and Crash Resolutions
*
*Addressed multiple potential crash scenarios:*
o Robust handling of HTTP |CONNECT| requests.
o Fixed crashes caused by missing or empty argument lists in
commands such as |ns_filestat|, |ns_sockcallback|, and |ns_ictl
oncleanup|.
o Prevented crash in |ns_log| when invoked with an empty message.
o Resolved a 24-year-old bug in |Ns_AdjTime()| that could lead to
fatal errors due to microsecond overflow in multithreaded
environments.
o Fixed crash in |ns_conn copy| when operating on empty content.
o Prevented crash in |ns_sema release| with invalid semaphore counts.
o Corrected off-by-one error in |ns_adp_bind_args| that could
access uninitialized |Tcl_Obj| values.
o Fixed crash in |ns_inet_ntop| due to unsafe memory operations
with overlapping regions (notably on aarch64 with musl).
o Resolved crash in |Ns_SetIUpdateSz()| caused by case mismatch in
header keys with the legacy C API.
o Fixed crash during |nscp| startup when the |users| section was
not configured.
o Prevented crash in debug mode when the |Host:| header could not
be mapped to a virtual server and the driver was installed locally.
o Avoided crash when launching |nsd| with |-c| and |-t| options
and no |home| parameter defined.
o Fixed crash during computation of |ns_conn location| when the
network driver was not globally installed (global installation
now recommended).
o Fixed crash due to self-destructive header replacement when
|ns_conn outputheaders| are passed via |ns_respond ... -headers ...|
Functional Correctness and Logic Fixes:
* |ns_conn status|: Fixed issue where updated status codes were
silently ignored.
* |ns_conn doneCallback|: Ensured this callback is always invoked in
|ns_http|.
* |nsv_dict get|: Fixed a memory leak in value retrieval.
* |ns_conn peeraddr|: Resolved race condition in pipelined requests
that could yield incorrect peer addresses.
* |ns_cache_eval -force|: Fixed race condition that could produce
obsolete results.
* |ns_sema create|: Corrected handling of initial count values (e.g.,
|1000|).
* |ns_trim|: Fixed spacing logic to trim only leading and trailing
whitespace, preserving internal spacing.
* |ns_config -int|: Corrected fallback behavior when invalid values
are supplied, now correctly using documented defaults.
* |ns_sockcallback|: Now gracefully handles missing arguments.
* |ns_socknread|: Fixed inaccurate results for buffered connections.
* |ns_crypto::aead::encrypt/decrypt|: Restored compatibility with
OpenSSL 1.1.1.
* Fixed incorrect parsing of encoded backslashes in URLs.
* |Ns_StrTrimRight()|: Corrected UTF-8 handling in right-side string
trimming.
* Fixed |ns_conn location| when running behind a reverse proxy to
always returns a value, even in broken configurations.
OpenSSL fixes
* Added support for detecting and validating OCSP Must-Staple and AIA
presence in certificates. Without that, NaviServer might crash, when
OCSP is turned on, and NULL values are passed for AIA URLs (letsencrypt)
* Introduced stable output buffers for |send| operations to support
retries after |SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE|, preventing connection failures
under high load.
* Improved error handling in OpenSSL integration by draining the error
stack via DrainErrorStack().
HTTP Client Fixes
* |ns_http|:
o Reordered initialization in |NsInitServer()| to ensure
submodules can access a fully configured server state.
HTML and ADP Parsing Fixes
* ADP Parser:
o Enhanced support for quoted |>| characters inside attribute
values, aligning with modern HTML parsing rules.
* |return-notice| handling:
o Suppressed spurious error messages when fallback ADP templates
are processed outside of a full ADP context.
* |ns_striphtml|:
o Fixed long-standing bug where adjacent HTML entities were
incorrectly decoded—only the first entity was processed.
Logging and Diagnostics Fixes
* Fixed misleading log output when dynamically changing extended
headers via |ns_accesslog extendedheaders ...|.
* Improved error messages when port binding fails due to conflicts
with driver assignment.
* Fixed off-by-one error in the virtual server port configuration logic.
* Clarified or corrected multiple logging messages across modules for
better diagnostics.
nscgi Module Fixes
* Fixed file upload failures when uploads were internally spooled by
NaviServer — previously returned 500 errors.
* Corrected processing of CGI script exit codes not 0.
* Fixed hostname and port reporting for |SERVER_NAME|.
Database Fixes
* |ns_db rowcount|: Fixed regression where the row count logic was not
invoked, rendering the command a no-op.
Build and Compatibility Fixes
* Suppressed obsolete |--enable-threads| warning for Tcl versions
where thread support is now enabled by default.
* Fixed compilation failure with glibc 2.38+ due to
|PTHREAD_STACK_MIN| becoming dynamic via |sysconf()|.
General Cleanups
* Fixed small memory leak triggered by |serverrootproc| reset.
* Numerous minor typo corrections, comment clarifications, and small
logic cleanups across modules.

regression tests.
+ Ensured that all documented commands are also implemented
and tested.
Syntax and Formatting Consistency

error messages (see commit |ffbd32774db|for details).
Manual Page Improvements
*
*nscgi*: Significantly revised documentation and usage examples for
clarity and completeness.
