-- shadowircd 6.4.0
* This is primarily made up of backports from Charybdis 3.4.0
server protocol
- Add channel ban forwarding <mask>$<channel> much like ircd-seven. Local use
of this is controlled by the channel::use_forward config option.
- Allow RSFNC (forced nick change from services) to change a nickname's
capitalization only.
- Add ENCAP TGINFO to propagate IP addresses that exceeded target change
limits (these get a lower limit when they reconnect). The message's source
is the user that exceeded the limit and one parameter "0" is required.
user
- Allow mode queries on mlocked modes. In particular, allow /mode #channel f
to query the forward channel even if +f is mlocked.
- Consider bogus CTCP ACTION messages (without action text) CTCP (for
cmode +C).
- Apply colour stripping (cmode +c) and CTCP checking (cmode +C) to messages
to @/+ channel as well.
- Channel mode +c (and other places that disallow colour codes) now also strip
ASCII 4 (a different kind of colour code).
- Add an error message (numeric 743) if a ban mask is invalid.
- Extract the underlying IPv4 address from 6to4 and Teredo IPv6 addresses.
Show it in a remote /whois and check channel bans, quiets, D:lines and
K:lines against it. Note that ban exceptions and auth{} blocks are not
checked.
- Send ERR_TOOMANYCHANNELS for each channel join that fails due to channel
limits, instead of one per JOIN command.
- Add account-notify client capability to notify clients about logins and
logouts of users in common channels. See doc/account-notify.txt.
- Add away-notify client capability. See doc/away-notify.txt.
- Add extended-join client capability to add account name and ircname to JOIN.
See doc/extended-join.txt.
- Disallow wildcarded nicknames in "hunted" parameters like /stats and /motd.
- Disallow mIRC italics in channel names when disable_fake_channels.
- Add AUTHENTICATE EXTERNAL support, allows SASL authentication using an SSL
certificate fingerprint.
- Allow channel::kick_on_split_riding to protect channels with mlocked keys.
This works with atheme-services 5.2.0 or newer.
- The NICKLEN token in 005 now only specifies the maximum nick length for
this server/user. The MAXNICKLEN token specifies the maximum nick length
any user can have.
- Disallow '$' in usernames as this may cause problems with ban forwarding.
- Allow normal users to perform /privs on themselves, showing some privileges
from the auth{} block.
- Rate limit high-bandwidth commands, in particular /who <channel>.
- Rate limit /away to help avoid flooding via away-notify.
oper
- Add operspy for /list.
- Add /stats C to show information about dynamically loaded server
capabilities.
- Add a server notice to snomask +b if a user exceeds target change limits.
- Add missing server notice for kills from RSFNC and SVSLOGIN.
config
- Add support for IPv6 DNSBLs. A new "type" option specifies the IP version(s)
for which each DNSBL should be checked.
- Make flood control settings configurable by those who know exactly what they
are doing.
- Add serverinfo::nicklen config option to limit the nick length for local
users. Different values of this option do not break the server protocol.
- Add general::away_interval to allow configuring /away rate limiting.
- Add listener::defer_accept to delay accepting a connection until the client
sends data. This depends on kernel support. It may break BOPM checking.
- Add general::resv_fnc to forcibly change nicks of local users that match a
newly set nick RESV, default enabled.
- Add extb_usermode extension, $m:+-<modes> extban matching against umodes.
- Extend extb_oper extension to allow matching against oper privileges.
misc
- Work around timerfd/signalfd brokenness on OpenVZ.
- Add --with-custom-branding and --with-custom-version configure options to
help forks/patchsets distinguish themselves.
- Ensure SIGHUP and SIGINT keep working after a SIGINT restart.
- Remove broken GnuTLS support. SSL/TLS is now only provided using OpenSSL.
