by non-netadmin ircops in some (many) cases, reported by Zell (#0001541).
note: this fix is still "wrong", because the whole override/whatever
system is flawed ;p.
I worked on a few months ago... It tries to explain how to get a server/network
secured, what the potential risks are, etc... Of course security is a complex topic
so I cannot talk about everything in it, but I tried to mention the main risks and
what you can do about it in a (hopefully) simple and understandable language ;).
- Added snomasks 'S' (Spamfilter) which notifies you of any spamfilter matches.
- [internal] always return after spamfilter match, don't continue looping trough
targets list (eg in case of: /msg #a,#b,#c spamspam), otherwise you would get
duplicate notification msgs.
- Added SENDSNO server command, similar to SENDUMODE but for snomasks, this is
used by the spamfilter snomask (+S) so you get network-wide notifications.
- Added "compiled for.." versioning system, this way a beta17 module can't be loaded
on beta18, etc... People often forgot to recompile their modules or had old ones
somewhere by mistake, therefore crashing after upgrades... this should fix this
(in the future). Module coders don't have to do anything for making this work,
it's done automatically (via modules.h).
spamfilter::word to spamfilter::regex to make it even more clear (since we match
on the whole line and have nothing to do with words.. 'word' doesn't make sense).
- Updated docs with some better regex examples, reported by AngryWolf (#0001520).
called which might look a bit ugly, but is better than before (scattered on 3 places).
- Added snomasks 'N' which allows you to see nick changes of clients on other servers,
requested by several people (#0001323).
introduce throttling of other msgs (or making this configurable)... this is just
an exception because this msg is sent to _all opers_ and you cannot disable it by
unsetting certain snomasks. Anything lower than 15s would be bad anyway since this
is a very serious error condition. Requested by LoVeR (#0001412).
- Fixed 'no server notice on /restart or /die', reported by Lx (#0001062). This was caused
by a bug in flush_connections(&me), hopefully there won't be any side effects.
- Fixed file owner problems when IRC_UID/IRC_GID is used (eg: when running chrooted).
- Fixed crashbug if we were unable to write a remote include file to disk.
expire times, reason field, etc... Entries are now fully synced between servers.
Reported by Cnils (#0001448).
- Added umode +T to help.conf
- Fixed an issue with add/del/remove in /spamfilter being case sensitive.
