This is a beta release of GeoServer made in conjunction with GeoTools 16-beta. Beta Testing The GeoServer Team has been hard at work to bring you this beta release. Here is our priorities for testing: - Updated GeoServer Style Editor <http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/styling/webadmin/index.html#style-editor> - Module Status <http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/rest/api/manifests.html#about-status-format> REST endpoint - CSS Extension – Nested rule <http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/styling/css/nested.html> and rendering transform <http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/styling/css/transformation.html> support We one crititcal known issues to keep in mind when testing: - GEOS-7750 <https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-7750> – The WMS and LegendSample beans used in GeoServerTileLayer may provoke a cyclic dependency when Spring beans are loaded. As a consequence *tiled layers may not be loaded and are deleted* by GWC integration. Please back up your data and configuration before testing the GeoServer 2.10-beta with data you care about. Highlights from the release notes: - Add CSS nested rule support - Add CSS rendering transform support - Add WMTS multi dimensional community module - Add WCS 2.0 Demo Requests - OL3 Preview in tiled mode supports map wrapping - Make JDBCStore compatible with HazelCast Clustering - Changes to WMS GetFeatureInfo for coverages: - Band names now presented in responses as NCNames for all info_formats (spaces and leading digits replaced with underscores) - Support for continuous map wrapping for latitude/longitude projections - Support for coverages with native latitude/longitude coordinates and longitudes > 180 degrees East Also, looking at the GeoTools 16-M0 release notes, we have: - Support Azimuthal Equidistant projection - Implement Vladimir’s Polygon label point algorithim - GeoPackage can write to boolean fields For more information about the what is included in the GeoServer 2.10 release, also refer to the GeoServer 2.10-M0 release anouncement <http://blog.geoserver.org/2016/08/15/geoserver-2-10-m0-released/>. Security Considerations This release includes several security enhancements (which are also included in the recent GeoServer 2.8.5 <http://blog.geoserver.org/2016/08/12/geoserver-2-8-5-released/> and 2.9.1 <http://blog.geoserver.org/2016/08/05/geoserver-2-9-1-released/> releases - Although we have not been able to reproduce from GeoServer, a remote execution vulnerability has been reported against both the Restlet and the Apache Commons BeanUtils libraries we use. We have patched our use of these libraries as a preventative measure. We would like to thank Kevin Smith for doing the bulk of the work, and Andrea Aime for providing a patched BeanUtils library addressing these vulnerabilities. - Layer security restrictions in CHALLENGE mode were not being correctly applied by embedded GeoWebCache. Thanks to Nick Muerdter for his responsible report of this vulnerability and for submitting a fix (that included a unit test!) - Carl Schroedl reported a vulnerability at application startup when working with a data directory on a network file system, a new configuration option <http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/datadirectory/setting.html#require-files-to-exist> has been provided to check that the directory exists. Thanks to Carl for following our responsible disclosure procedure, and to Ben Caradoc-Davies for implementing the new parameter. If you wish to report a security vulnerability, please visit our website for instructions on responsible reporting <http://geoserver.org/issues/>. About GeoServer 2.10 GeoServer 2.10 is scheduled for October release.
