This is only outputted if both sides are 4.0.16+ so we can use spkifp
and use the same instruction on both sides of the link.
(If we would do it for previous versions then we would only give
half of the instructions to the users, which makes no sense)
There is now '/spamfilter del' which will output all spamfilter along with
the appropriate command to delete each spamfilter (by unique ID).
This way it should be easy for anyone to delete an existing spamfilter.
We also refer to this new feature from '/spamfilter', '/stats spamfilter',
etc.
places by spamfilters (and some other systems) to be placed not on *@ip
but rather on user@ip. Note that this won't work for ZLINE/GZLINE since
no ident/username lookups are done in such cases.
Bit of a niche feature but okay..
on the IP and thus result in an XX.YY.ZZ.IP cloaked host.
This so you can have "IP cloaking" without disabling DNS lookups.
GLINES on hosts still work and IRCOps (and yourself) can still see
the host in /WHOIS.

and set::sasl-server is not set by the administrator. Looks like this:
*** Services server 'services.test.net' provides SASL authentication, good! I'm setting set::sasl-server to 'services.test.net' internally.
Hopefully this will increase SASL availability significantly.
That is, once anope and atheme start sending the saslmechlist to us,
of course ;) (see commit d6e26d59e5)
This so saslmechs are properly sent in case of services (re)connect,
otherwise the CAP NEW is sent too early when the saslmechs are
not known yet.
NOTE: This makes sending "EOS" mandatory for any SASL servers.
You should be doing this since 14 years ago (it was added
in 3.2beta18 in August 2003) so hopefully that is the case.
Anope is good anyway :)
Fix force-rejoin not working if doing SVSMODE -x/+x (Koragg, #5015).
Note to module coders:
Please use the following procedure in case of an user/host change:
* userhost_save_current(acptr);
* << change username or hostname here (or both) >>
* userhost_changed(acptr);
This function will take care of notifying other clients about
the userhost change, such as doing PART+JOIN+MODE if force-rejoin
is enabled, and sending :xx CHGHOST user host messages to
"CAP chghost" capable clients.
Also, small note to everyone:
If force-rejoin is enabled we will not send the PART+JOIN+MODE to
"CAP chghost" capable clients. Doing so is just a hack to notify
people of a userhost change. "CAP chghost" users can thus benefit
from the reduced noise in this respect.
Delete CAP CLEAR as it's use is discouraged (too much trouble).
Delete CAP ACK (from client2server) as this is only for CAP's with
ack modifiers. This is something we don't use, and which has been
deprecated in v3.2 of the spec.
This permits multiple blocks like..
webirc {
mask *;
password "....." { sslclientcertfp; };
};
..should you need it.
In other words: we don't stop matching upon an authentication failure.
to validate the certificate of the link, making sure that:
1) The certificate is issued by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA).
2) The name on the certificate matches the name of the link block.
Some things still need to be done: documentation, more testing, and
using the X509_check_host() function when available.
Nobody used this option and it only caused the following confusing
(and potentially insecure) behavior:
Previously if you had 'verify-certificate' enabled then the certificate
would be checked, BUT if it was a self-signed certificate (and thus
not passing verify-cert) it was STILL allowed unless you also
specified the 'no-self-signed' option. This might be correct as per
documentation but is way too confusing for the user.
Now you simply have to choose whether you verify the certificate or
not. No special handling for self-signed certificates.
connected to a server introducing himself as irc2.test.net. This
was rather confusing, of course. Wasn't much of a security issue since
this only happened in outgoing connects and naturally all authentication
need to pass as well.
* The 'ban too broad' checking was broken. This permitted glines such
as 192.168.0.0/1 being set. Now it rejects CIDR of /15 and lower.
To disable this safety measure you can (still) use:
set { options { allow-insane-bans; }; };
Docs: https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Set_block#set::ssl::sts-policy::port
Example:
set {
ssl {
certificate "ssl/server.cert.pem";
key "ssl/server.key.pem";
sts-policy {
port 6697;
duration 180d;
};
};
};
IMPORTANT: Only use this if you know what STS is and what the
implications are. The most important things being A) set a correct
port and B) you need a 'real' SSL certificate and not a self-signed
certificate.
More documentation may follow at another place.
Module coders:
* The cap->visible(void) callback function is now cap->visible(aClient *)
* There is a new cap->parameter(aClient *) callback function.
* Various updates to subfunctions to pass 'sptr' (due to the above),
including clicap_find(sptr, ...)
* New CLICAP_FLAGS_UNREQABLE flag
Other:
* There is a new (src/)modules/cap directory containing the sts module,
well.. once I commit it :D
