- Numeric audit: 15 small changes (int/long mismatches etc). This might have fixed some
bugs on architectures where 'long' and 'int' have different sizes (eg: opteron).
multiple reference count bugs, one related to sptr->serv->conf, and another one related
to sptr->serv->class. Both caused problems when someone did a /rehash when a server
was in the process of connecting (so it might also happen when connfreq was hit and you
did a /rehash). Original bug was reported by sh0 (#0001872).
it will just accept it if it's from a remote server, and also ops/etc will be allowed
to REMOVE any unknown extbans (but not add new unknown ones).
- Added extended ban type ~n (nickchange ban), if a user matches this (s)he can not
change nicks (eg: +b ~n:*!*@*.aol.com) unless (s)he has voice or higher.
This can be useful as an overall measure for some +m chans (+b ~n:!*@*) or against
specific 'good' people that are just nickflooding due to a wrongly configured script.
- Added set::restrict-extendedbans by which you can disallow normal users to use
any extendedbans ("*") or disallow only certain ones (eg: "qc").
- Made the negative TS message a bit more annoying if time is off more than 10 seconds.
- Module coders: if CmdoverrideAdd() is called for an override that is already in place, it
now sets MODERR_EXISTS as errorcode and returns NULL (previously it added duplicates).
In the past module coders had many issues with PERM mods... you had to use weird tricks,
but now you can (and should!) just override on INIT and on HOOKTYPE_REHASH_COMPLETE.
- Moved register_user declaration to h.h, updated call in m_pingpong.c (due new 'ip' field).
- Usermode +v ('receive dcc send rejection notices') is oper-only now for privacy reasons.
- Added dcc allow { }, which allows one to make exceptions over deny dcc { }.
- Added deny dcc::soft and allow dcc::soft item, if set to 'yes' it allows someone
to explicitly override it per-person via /DCCALLOW (see next).
- Added DCCALLOW system, taken directly from bahamut.
With this system you can block certain (or all) DCC SENDs and then allow the user to
'override' this limit for every user he/she trusts via '/DCCALLOW +User'.
This is an attempt to stop (or at least limit) the spreading of viruses/etc.
See '/DCCALLOW HELP' for more info.
- Added example dccallow.conf which filters everything except some known
'safe types' (jpg, jpeg, png, gif, etc). Note that the purpose of this file
is NOT to get a complete list, rather to limit it to a few 'known safe' entries.
- Added set::maxdccallow: max number of entries of the DCCALLOW list (default: 10).
in a netjoin when there was no need to (nothing to synch).
- Added spamfilter::except which allows you to specify targets
(eg: channels) where spamfilter should not take action. Requested by Fury
(#0001586). Ex: set { spamfilter { except "#spamreport,#help"; }; };
