Hello folks, Bodhi will probably be upgraded to 7.1.1 before the F38 final freeze and I want to highlight a notable change which may impact update submissions. The change is that update notes field will now be limited to 10k characters length. The request came from https://github.com/fedora-infra/bodhi/issues/4982 which brought to attention that data of some updates were really huge and may lead to DoS attacks. The 10k characters limit I chose should have no impact for 99% of the updates. The limit is configurable in bodhi config, personally I would have lowered that, but I preferred to chose a high value to start with. Most of the updates which have notes longer than 10k characters are rawhide automatic updates which copies the RPM changelog over and over, but there are some user created updates which would also been affected by the new limit. I want to point out that copying the full upstream changelogs into updates notes is not recommended. With Bodhi 7.1.1 the webUI form will show a character counter at the bottom of the notes input box which will help the user to check if they're within length limits and the form will refuse to create the update if notes exceed the limit. For CLI submitted updates, the server will return an error and will refuse to create the update if notes exceed the limit. Other changes between the currently deployed Bodhi 7.0.1 and the upcoming Bodhi 7.1.1 I encourage you to look at the upstream changelog at https://github.com/fedora-infra/bodhi/releases Cheers Mattia _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
