Version 5.07, 2014.11.01, urgency: MEDIUM:
* New features
- Several SMTP server protocol negotiation improvements.
- Added UTF-8 byte order marks to stunnel.conf templates.
- DH parameters are no longer generated by "make cert".
The hardcoded DH parameters are sufficiently secure,
and modern TLS implementations will use ECDH anyway.
- Updated manual for the "options" configuration file option.
- Added support for systemd 209 or later.
- New --disable-systemd ./configure option.
- setuid/setgid commented out in stunnel.conf-sample.
* Bugfixes
- Added support for UTF-8 byte order mark in stunnel.conf.
- Compilation fix for OpenSSL with disabled SSLv2 or SSLv3.
- Non-blocking mode set on inetd and systemd descriptors.
- shfolder.h replaced with shlobj.h for compatibility
with modern Microsoft compilers.
Version 5.06, 2014.10.15, urgency: HIGH:
* Security bugfixes
- OpenSSL DLLs updated to version 1.0.1j.
https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20141015.txt
- The insecure SSLv2 protocol is now disabled by default.
It can be enabled with "options = -NO_SSLv2".
- The insecure SSLv3 protocol is now disabled by default.
It can be enabled with "options = -NO_SSLv3".
- Default sslVersion changed to "all" (also in FIPS mode)
to autonegotiate the highest supported TLS version.
* New features
- Added missing SSL options to match OpenSSL 1.0.1j.
- New "-options" commandline option to display the list
of supported SSL options.
* Bugfixes
- Fixed FORK threading build regression bug.
- Fixed missing periodic Win32 GUI log updates.
Version 5.05, 2014.10.10, urgency: MEDIUM:
* New features
- Asynchronous communication with the GUI thread for faster
logging on Win32.
- systemd socket activation (thx to Mark Theunissen).
- The parameter of "options" can now be prefixed with "-"
to clear an SSL option, for example:
"options = -LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT".
- Improved "transparent = destination" manual page (thx to
Vadim Penzin).
* Bugfixes
- Fixed POLLIN|POLLHUP condition handling error resulting
in prematurely closed (truncated) connection.
- Fixed a null pointer dereference regression bug in the
"transparent = destination" functionality (thx to
Vadim Penzin). This bug was introduced in stunnel 5.00.
- Fixed startup thread synchronization with Win32 GUI.
- Fixed erroneously closed stdin/stdout/stderr if specified
as the -fd commandline option parameter.
- A number of minor Win32 GUI bugfixes and improvements.
- Merged most of the Windows CE patches (thx to Pierre Delaage).
- Fixed incorrect CreateService() error message on Win32.
- Implemented a workaround for defective Cygwin file
descriptor passing breaking the libwrap support:

- Support for local mode ("exec" option) on Win32.
- Support for UTF-8 config file and log file.
- Win32 UTF-16 build (thx to Pierre Delaage for support).
- Support for Unicode file names on Win32.
- A more explicit service description provided for the
Windows SCM (thx to Pierre Delaage).
- TCP/IP dependency added for NT service in order to prevent
initialization failure at boot time.
- FIPS canister updated to version 2.0.8 in the Win32 binary
build.
* Bugfixes
- load_icon_default() modified to return copies of default icons
instead of the original resources to prevent the resources
from being destroyed.
- Partially merged Windows CE patches (thx to Pierre Delaage).
- Fixed typos in stunnel.init.in and vc.mak.
- Fixed incorrect memory allocation statistics update in
str_realloc().
- Missing REMOTE_PORT environmental variable is provided to
processes spawned with "exec" on Unix platforms.
- Taskbar icon is no longer disabled for NT service.
- Fixed taskbar icon initialization when commandline options are
specified.
