"Prosody 0.9.10 ============== A summary of changes in this release:
Security -------- * mod_dialback: Adopt key generation algorithm from
XEP-0185, to prevent impersonation attacks (CVE-2016-0756) Fixes and
improvements ---------------------- * Startup: Open /dev/urandom
read-only, to fix a failure to start on some systems (fixes #585) *
Networking: Improve handling of the 'select' network backend running
out of file descriptors Minor changes ------------- * Networking:
Increase default internal read size to prevent connections stalling
with LuaEvent (see #583) * DNS: Discard queries that failed to send
due to connection errors (fixes #598) * c2s, s2s: Lower priority of
shutdown handler, so that modules such as MUC can always send shutdown
notifications to (remote) users (fixes #601)
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
