122        Bug fixes:
123       #572 #577  Relax fix to CVE-2022-25236 (introduced with release 2.4.5)
124                    with regard to all valid URI characters (RFC 3986),
125                    i.e. the following set (excluding whitespace):
126                    ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

131            #577  Document consequences of namespace separator choices not just
132                    in doc/reference.html but also in header <expat.h>

134                    RFC 3986, and that the XML 1.0r4 specification doesn't
135                    require Expat to validate namespace URIs, and that Expat
136                    may do more in that regard in future releases.
137                    If you find need for strict RFC 3986 URI validation on
138                    application level today, https://uriparser.github.io/ may

144            #573  Update documentation on use of XML_POOR_ENTOPY on Solaris

158                    in release 2.4.5 that affects applications that (1)
159                    call function XML_SetElementDeclHandler and (2) are
160                    parsing XML that contains nested element declarations

178                    sequences (e.g. from start tag names) to the XML
179                    processing application on top of Expat can cause
180                    arbitrary damage (e.g. code execution) depending
181                    on how invalid UTF-8 is handled inside the XML
182                    processor; validation was not their job but Expat's.
183                    Exploits with code execution are known to exist.
184            #561  CVE-2022-25236 -- Passing (one or more) namespace separator
185                    characters in "xmlns[:prefix]" attribute values
186                    made Expat send malformed tag names to the XML
187                    processor on top of Expat which can cause

191                    Exploits with code execution are known to exist.
192            #558  CVE-2022-25313 -- Fix stack exhaustion in doctype parsing
193                    that could be triggered by e.g. a 2 megabytes
194                    file with a large number of opening braces.
195                    Expected impact is denial of service or potentially
196                    arbitrary code execution.
197            #560  CVE-2022-25314 -- Fix integer overflow in function copyString;
198                    only affects the encoding name parameter at parser creation
199                    time which is often hardcoded (rather than user input),
200                    takes a value in the gigabytes to trigger, and a 64-bit
201                    machine.  Expected impact is denial of service.
202            #559  CVE-2022-25315 -- Fix integer overflow in function storeRawNames;
203                    needs input in the gigabytes and a 64-bit machine.

224                    common and default).
225                    Impact is denial of service or more.

337Release 2.4.0 Sun May 23 2021
338        Security fixes:
339   #34 #466 #484  CVE-2013-0340/CWE-776 -- Protect against billion laughs attacks
340                    (denial-of-service; flavors targeting CPU time or RAM or both,
341                    leveraging general entities or parameter entities or both)
342                    by tracking and limiting the input amplification factor
343                    (<amplification> := (<direct> + <indirect>) / <direct>).
344                    By conservative default, amplification up to a factor of 100.0
345                    is tolerated and rejection only starts after 8 MiB of output bytes
346                    (=<direct> + <indirect>) have been processed.
347                    The fix adds the following to the API:
348                    - A new error code XML_ERROR_AMPLIFICATION_LIMIT_BREACH to
349                      signals this specific condition.
350                    - Two new API functions ..
351                      - XML_SetBillionLaughsAttackProtectionMaximumAmplification and
352                      - XML_SetBillionLaughsAttackProtectionActivationThreshold
353                      .. to further tighten billion laughs protection parameters
354                      when desired.  Please see file "doc/reference.html" for details.
355                      If you ever need to increase the defaults for non-attack XML
356                      payload, please file a bug report with libexpat.
357                    - Two new XML_FEATURE_* constants ..
358                      - that can be queried using the XML_GetFeatureList function, and
359                      - that are shown in "xmlwf -v" output.
360                    - Two new environment variable switches ..
361                      - EXPAT_ACCOUNTING_DEBUG=(0|1|2|3) and
362                      - EXPAT_ENTITY_DEBUG=(0|1)
363                      .. for runtime debugging of accounting and entity processing.
364                      Specific behavior of these values may change in the future.
365                    - Two new command line arguments "-a FACTOR" and "-b BYTES"
366                      for xmlwf to further tighten billion laughs protection
367                      parameters when desired.
368                      If you ever need to increase the defaults for non-attack XML
369                      payload, please file a bug report with libexpat.

417Release 2.3.0 Thu March 25 2021
418        Bug fixes:
419            #438  When calling XML_ParseBuffer without a prior successful call to
420                    XML_GetBuffer as a user, no longer trigger undefined behavior
421                    (by adding an integer to a NULL pointer) but rather return
422                    XML_STATUS_ERROR and set the error code to (new) code
423                    XML_ERROR_NO_BUFFER. Found by UBSan (UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer)
424                    of Clang 11 (but not Clang 9).
425            #444  xmlwf: Exit status 2 was used for both:
426                    - malformed input files (documented) and
427                    - invalid command-line arguments (undocumented).
428                    The case of invalid command-line arguments now
429                    has its own exit status 4, resolving the ambiguity.

435  #422 #426 #447  Windows: Drop support for Visual Studio <=14.0/2015
436            #434  Windows: CMake: Detect unsupported Visual Studio at
437                    configure time (rather than at compile time)
438       #382 #428  testrunner: Make verbose mode (argument "-v") report
439                    about passed tests, and make default mode report about
440                    failures, as well.
441            #442  CMake: Call "enable_language(CXX)" prior to tinkering

1100                value (salt) for hash calculations. This is part of the fix for
1101                bug #3496608 to randomize hash parameters.
1102          When compiled with XML_ATTR_INFO defined, adds new API member
1103                XML_GetAttributeInfo() that allows retrieving the byte
1104                offsets for attribute names and values (patch #3446384).
1105          Added CMake build system.
1106                See bug #2990652 and patch #3312568.
1107          Added run-benchmark target to Makefile.in - relies on testdata module
1108                present in the same relative location as in the repository.
1109
1110Release 2.0.1 Tue June 5 2007
1111        - Fixed bugs #1515266, #1515600: The character data handler's calling
1112          of XML_StopParser() was not handled properly; if the parser was
1113          stopped and the handler set to NULL, the parser would segfault.
1114        - Fixed bug #1690883: Expat failed on EBCDIC systems as it assumed
1115          some character constants to be ASCII encoded.
1116        - Minor cleanups of the test harness.
1117        - Fixed xmlwf bug #1513566: "out of memory" error on file size zero.
1118        - Fixed outline.c bug #1543233: missing a final XML_ParserFree() call.
1119        - Fixes and improvements for Windows platform:
1120          bugs #1409451, #1476160, #1548182, #1602769, #1717322.
1121        - Build fixes for various platforms:
1122          HP-UX, Tru64, Solaris 9: patch #1437840, bug #1196180.
1123          All Unix: #1554618 (refreshed config.sub/config.guess).
1124                    #1490371, #1613457: support both, DESTDIR and INSTALL_ROOT,
1125                    without relying on GNU-Make specific features.
1126          #1647805: Patched configure.in to work better with Intel compiler.
1127        - Fixes to Makefile.in to have make check work correctly:
1128          bugs #1408143, #1535603, #1536684.
1129        - Added Open Watcom support: patch #1523242.
1130
1131Release 2.0.0 Wed Jan 11 2006
1132        - We no longer use the "check" library for C unit testing; we
1133          always use the (partial) internal implementation of the API.
1134        - Report XML_NS setting via XML_GetFeatureList().
1135        - Fixed headers for use from C++.
1136        - XML_GetCurrentLineNumber() and  XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber()
1137          now return unsigned integers.
1138        - Added XML_LARGE_SIZE switch to enable 64-bit integers for
1139          byte indexes and line/column numbers.
1140        - Updated to use libtool 1.5.22 (the most recent).
1141        - Added support for AmigaOS.
1142        - Some mostly minor bug fixes. SF issues include: #1006708,
1143          #1021776, #1023646, #1114960, #1156398, #1221160, #1271642.
1144
1145Release 1.95.8 Fri Jul 23 2004
1146        - Major new feature: suspend/resume.  Handlers can now request
1147          that a parse be suspended for later resumption or aborted
1148          altogether.  See "Temporarily Stopping Parsing" in the
1149          documentation for more details.
1150        - Some mostly minor bug fixes, but compilation should no
1151          longer generate warnings on most platforms.  SF issues
1152          include: #827319, #840173, #846309, #888329, #896188, #923913,
1153          #928113, #961698, #985192.
1154
1155Release 1.95.7 Mon Oct 20 2003
1156        - Fixed enum XML_Status issue (reported on SourceForge many
1157          times), so compilers that are properly picky will be happy.
1158        - Introduced an XMLCALL macro to control the calling
1159          convention used by the Expat API; this macro should be used
1160          to annotate prototypes and definitions of callback
1161          implementations in code compiled with a calling convention
1162          other than the default convention for the host platform.
1163        - Improved ability to build without the configure-generated
1164          expat_config.h header.  This is useful for applications
1165          which embed Expat rather than linking in the library.
1166        - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #458907, #609603,
1167          #676844, #679754, #692878, #692964, #695401, #699323, #699487,
1168          #820946.
1169        - Improved hash table lookups.
1170        - Added more regression tests and improved documentation.
1171
1172Release 1.95.6 Tue Jan 28 2003
1173        - Added XML_FreeContentModel().
1174        - Added XML_MemMalloc(), XML_MemRealloc(), XML_MemFree().
1175        - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #615606, #616863,
1176          #618199, #653180, #673791.
1177        - Enhanced the regression test suite.
1178        - Man page improvements: includes SF issue #632146.
1179
1180Release 1.95.5 Fri Sep 6 2002
1181        - Added XML_UseForeignDTD() for improved SAX2 support.
1182        - Added XML_GetFeatureList().
1183        - Defined XML_Bool type and the values XML_TRUE and XML_FALSE.
1184        - Use an incomplete struct instead of a void* for the parser
1185          (may not retain).
1186        - Fixed UTF-8 decoding bug that caused legal UTF-8 to be rejected.
1187        - Finally fixed bug where default handler would report DTD
1188          events that were already handled by another handler.
1189          Initial patch contributed by Darryl Miles.
1190        - Removed unnecessary DllMain() function that caused static
1191          linking into a DLL to be difficult.
1192        - Added VC++ projects for building static libraries.
1193        - Reduced line-length for all source code and headers to be
1194          no longer than 80 characters, to help with AS/400 support.
1195        - Reduced memory copying during parsing (SF patch #600964).
1196        - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #580793, #434664,
1197          #483514, #580503, #581069, #584041, #584183, #584832, #585537,
1198          #596555, #596678, #598352, #598944, #599715, #600479, #600971.
1199

1204          contributed by Thomas Wegner and Daryle Walker.
1205        - Added Borland C++ Builder 5 / BCC 5.5 support, contributed
1206          by Patrick McConnell (SF patch #538032).
1207        - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #441449, #563184,
1208          #564342, #566334, #566901, #569461, #570263, #575168, #579196.
1209        - Made skippedEntityHandler conform to SAX2 (see source comment)
1210        - Re-implemented WFC: Entity Declared from XML 1.0 spec and
1211          added a new error "entity declared in parameter entity":
1212          see SF bug report #569461 and SF patch #578161
1213        - Re-implemented section 5.1 from XML 1.0 spec:
1214          see SF bug report #570263 and SF patch #578161
1215
1216Release 1.95.3 Mon Jun 3 2002
1217        - Added a project to the MSVC workspace to create a wchar_t
1218          version of the library; the DLLs are named libexpatw.dll.
1219        - Changed the name of the Windows DLLs from expat.dll to
1220          libexpat.dll; this fixes SF bug #432456.
1221        - Added the XML_ParserReset() API function.
1222        - Fixed XML_SetReturnNSTriplet() to work for element names.

1225        - Install a man page for xmlwf on Unix systems.
1226        - Fixed many bugs; see SF bug reports #231864, #461380, #464837,
1227          #466885, #469226, #477667, #484419, #487840, #494749, #496505,
1228          #547350.  Other bugs which we can't test as easily may also
1229          have been fixed, especially in the area of build support.
1230
1231Release 1.95.2 Fri Jul 27 2001
1232        - More changes to make MSVC happy with the build; add a single
1233          workspace to support both the library and xmlwf application.
1234        - Added a Windows installer for Windows users; includes
1235          xmlwf.exe.
1236        - Added compile-time constants that can be used to determine the
1237          Expat version
1238        - Removed a lot of GNU-specific dependencies to aide portability
1239          among the various Unix flavors.
1240        - Fix the UTF-8 BOM bug.
1241        - Cleaned up warning messages for several compilers.
1242        - Added the -Wall, -Wstrict-prototypes options for GCC.
1243
1244Release 1.95.1 Sun Oct 22 15:11:36 EDT 2000
1245        - Changes to get expat to build under Microsoft compiler
1246        - Removed all aborts and instead return an UNEXPECTED_STATE error.
1247        - Fixed a bug where a stray '%' in an entity value would cause an
1248          abort.
1249        - Defined XML_SetEndNamespaceDeclHandler. Thanks to Darryl Miles for
1250          finding this oversight.
1251        - Changed default patterns in lib/Makefile.in to fit non-GNU makes
1252          Thanks to robin@unrated.net for reporting and providing an
1253          account to test on.
1254        - The reference had the wrong label for XML_SetStartNamespaceDecl.
1255          Reported by an anonymous user.
1256
1257Release 1.95.0 Fri Sep 29 2000
1258        - XML_ParserCreate_MM
1259                Allows you to set a memory management suite to replace the
1260                standard malloc,realloc, and free.
1261        - XML_SetReturnNSTriplet
1262                If you turn this feature on when namespace processing is in
1263                effect, then qualified, prefixed element and attribute names
1264                are returned as "uri|name|prefix" where '|' is whatever
1265                separator character is used in namespace processing.
1266        - Merged in features from perl-expat
1267                o XML_SetElementDeclHandler
1268                o XML_SetAttlistDeclHandler
1269                o XML_SetXmlDeclHandler
1270                o XML_SetEntityDeclHandler
1271                o StartDoctypeDeclHandler takes 3 additional parameters:
1272                        sysid, pubid, has_internal_subset
1273                o Many paired handler setters (like XML_SetElementHandler)
1274                  now have corresponding individual handler setters
1275                o XML_GetInputContext for getting the input context of
1276                  the current parse position.
1277        - Added reference material
1278        - Packaged into a distribution that builds a sharable library
1279
