Changes:
3.0.0 (2017-03-29)
------------------
**API Changes (Backward Incompatible)**
- Removed nghttp2 support. This support had rotted and was essentially
non-functional, so it has now been removed until someone has time to re-add
the support in a functional form.
- Attempts by the encoder to exceed the maximum allowed header table size via
dynamic table size updates (or the absence thereof) are now forbidden.
**API Changes (Backward Compatible)**
- Added a new ``InvalidTableSizeError`` thrown when the encoder does not
respect the maximum table size set by the user.
- Added a ``Decoder.max_allowed_table_size`` field that sets the maximum
allowed size of the decoder header table. See the documentation for an
indication of how this should be used.
**Bugfixes**
- Up to 25% performance improvement decoding HPACK-packed integers, depending
on the platform.
- HPACK now tolerates receiving multiple header table size changes in sequence,
rather than only one.
- HPACK now forbids header table size changes anywhere but first in a header
block, as required by RFC 7541 § 4.2.
- Other miscellaneous performance improvements.
2.3.0 (2016-08-04)
------------------
**Security Fixes**
- CVE-2016-6581: HPACK Bomb. This release now enforces a maximum value of the
decompressed size of the header list. This is to avoid the so-called "HPACK
Bomb" vulnerability, which is caused when a malicious peer sends a compressed
HPACK body that decompresses to a gigantic header list size.
This also adds a ``OversizedHeaderListError``, which is thrown by the
``decode`` method if the maximum header list size is being violated. This
places the HPACK decoder into a broken state: it must not be used after this
exception is thrown.
This also adds a ``max_header_list_size`` to the ``Decoder`` object. This
controls the maximum allowable decompressed size of the header list. By
default this is set to 64kB.
2.2.0 (2016-04-20)
------------------
**API Changes (Backward Compatible)**
- Added ``HeaderTuple`` and ``NeverIndexedHeaderTuple`` classes that signal
whether a given header field may ever be indexed in HTTP/2 header
compression.
- Changed ``Decoder.decode()`` to return the newly added ``HeaderTuple`` class
and subclass. These objects behave like two-tuples, so this change does not
break working code.
**Bugfixes**
- Improve Huffman decoding speed by 4x using an approach borrowed from nghttp2.
- Improve HPACK decoding speed by 10% by caching header table sizes.
2.1.1 (2016-03-16)
------------------
**Bugfixes**
- When passing a dictionary or dictionary subclass to ``Encoder.encode``, HPACK
now ensures that HTTP/2 special headers (headers whose names begin with
``:`` characters) appear first in the header block.
