The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability of the Squid-4.0.13 release! This release is a bug fix release resolving several issues found in the prior Squid releases. The major changes to be aware of: * HTTP/1.1: Update all stored headers on 304 revalidation. Previous specifications for HTTP outlined a limited number of headers that could be updated by 304 responses to a small set related to revalidation. The latest RFC 7234 specification removes those limits and permits custom headers, or content headers to be altered by a 304 response. * TLS Authority Key Identifier certificate extension The Server TLS certificate mimic feature now supports mimicking this TLS extension in Squid generated TLS certificates if possible. * Collapse internal revalidation requests (SMP-unaware caches). Prior to these changes, multiple concurrent HTTP requests for the same stale cached object always resulted in multiple internal revalidation requests sent by Squid to the origin server. Those internal requests were likely to result in multiple competing Squid cache updates, causing cache misses and/or more internal revalidation requests, negating collapsed forwarding savings. * kerberos_ldap_group: support SSL/TLS used to connect to an LDAP server This release of the helper extends and updates the use of TLS/SSL to support connecting to an LDAP server. * General portability and stability changes This release also includes a large number of code polishing and cleanup changes too small to mention individually, but which resolve a lot of portability and build issues. All users of Squid-4.0.x are encouraged to upgrade to this release. All users of Squid-3 are encouraged to test this release out and plan for upgrades where possible. See the ChangeLog for the full list of changes in this and earlier releases.
