The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the
availability of the Squid-3.1.18 release!
This release brings bug fixes for several compile and crash issues found
in earlier releases.
Several of these problems are serious stability issues in certain
environments. All squid-3 users are advised to upgrade to this release
as soon as possible.
* Bugs 2619 and 2910 are now fixed. Resolving several cases of memory
consumption.
* Issues in URL parsing, Digest authentication, FTP and SSL certificate
handling have been resolved.
* Several annoying compile issues with SASL, cstdargs, the dnsserver
helper, the AR build tool, radix, and the cf_gen tool have been fixed.
* Persistent connection support for all uncommon request methods has
been improved.
* Several unusual external ACL behaviours have been traced to stale
cache entries being used. This issue has been around since Squid-2
series, but became much more visible in 3.1. The problem is now fixed.
* EFAULT errors saving the swap.state files and leading to errors
loading on startup have been resolved.
See the ChangeLog for more details and the list of other changes in this
release.
All users of Squid-3 are advised to upgrade as soon as possible.
