build01484: 2019-03-21

Freenet 0.7.5 build 1484 is now available. [overview]

This release fixes the last blocking problems with the new build based on gradle and JNA.

Thanks to thesnark and operhiem1 we have a fix to a way to circumvent the content filter. This
could have resulted in handing an insecure file to an external (and potentially vulnerable)
program without showing a warning to the user. Please update ASAP to avoid that. See
CVE-2019-9673 for details.

Also uploads without compression now survive restarts of the node again.

This release finally includes the ogg-filter from Spencer Jacksons Google Summer of Code
project. It still needs polishing and has some inefficiencies, but you can now listen to a FLAC
from Freenet directly from your browser.

As a sidenote: Freenet supports listening to mp3 files in the browser since version build 1473
(2016-05-21). You can also use mp3s in a HTML5 audio-tag (FLAC not yet).

As main user-visible change: If you use the default theme, you will now see the Winterfacey
theme. If you changed it to some other theme, Freenet will continue to use that other theme.

The main networking change is to apply the less recently failed branch by toad. This should
decrease the number of recently failed errors, but it could have side-effects.

For darknet friends, the 1024 character limit of n2n messages is lifted. You can now send
messages of up to 128 kiB.

And thanks to Redwerk, there is now a "Send confidential message" button on the friends page.
Just tick the checkbox of the friends you want to contact to send n2n messages to them.

Also thanks to Redwerk, Freemail_wot is also updated to v0.2.7.4 with better detection of
contacts missing from WoT.

Further changes:

- update WoT plugin to build 20. Thanks to xor.
- replace handler.outputHandler.queue by handler.send - thanks to patheticcockroach.
- peer list: Add spacing between flag and IP address - thanks to Bombe.
- increase scaling to 3 again because 1480 nodes otherwise slow down updated nodes.
- only FMS and Sone on ChatForums suggestion page to fit the projects longstanding stance. If you disagree, you can create a freesite to promote it.
- avoid losing download state on restart - thanks to ChristmasMuch from FMS.
- update Sharesite version to 0.4.7 and activate by default.

Thank you for using Freenet!

- Arne Babenhauserheide

Developer changelog:

2019-03-21

Changes in 1484:

This release fixes the last blocking problems with the new build based on gradle and JNA.

Thanks to thesnark and operhiem1 we have a fix to a way to circumvent the content filter: on
Firefox uploading a file as MIME type text/plain caused Firefox to guess the filetype and present
the user with a download-or-open dialog. This could have resulted in handing an insecure file to an
external (and potentially vulnerable) program without showing a warning to the user. Please update
ASAP to avoid that. See CVE-2019-9673 for details.

Also uploads without compression now survive restarts of the node again.

Also this release finally includes the ogg-filter from Spencer Jacksons Google Summer of Code
project. It still needs polishing and has some inefficiencies, but you can now listen to a FLAC
from Freenet directly from your browser. For example via the following key:
CHK@tOwwq70fTosZuCnpZP4j1vMkEKiFuRIblmC351CbgpE,w6BTgWSJBDOM1~lWnsE83K2gOv3huEGHzSPWFBN4xFc,AAMC--8/infinite-hands-free-software.flac

Ogg Theora is merged, too, but currently garbles most files. If you’d like to fix that, please file
a pull-request!

As a sidenote: Freenet supports listening to mp3 files in the browser since version build 1473
(2016-05-21). You can also use mp3s in a HTML5 audio-tag.

As main user-visible change: If you use the default theme, you will now see the Winterfacey
theme. If you changed it to some other theme, Freenet will continue to use that other theme.

- update included seednodes

Thank you for using Freenet!

Stop killing plugins after the first
Don’t keep subconfig around after constructor
Add braces and fix formatting
Rename flag to better show its purpose
Fix whitespace
Manage information about starting, loaded, and failed plugins differently
Remove dead code
Use given last startup version
Use “started” flag instead of “toStart == null”
Use OOP instead of “instanceof.”

🚸 Add spacing between flag and IP address

GNU Emacs User (15):
FIX: recommending files to friends works again
fix misleading indentation
implement n2ntms up to 128 kiB via transparent assembly and disassembly
l10n: note new n2ntm limit of 128k chars
n2ntms: positive long msgid, -1 for invalid.
n2n: only show option to send files in advanced mode
cleanup whitespace
only unqueue n2ns after ack, not after send
whitespace cleanup
only change strings for languages where I know the number format well enough
process review by Bombe and xor

add requiredParts and partIndex to n2ns
fix whitespace
fix whitespace

Matthew Toseland (41):
Don't double the message on type warning pages.
Get rid of "MIME type". Use "Content Type" or similar. Rewrite one or two related strings.
Check whether defaultName actually exists really early on. I saw something wierd from Freereader in my logs...
Indent.
Similar fixes for SingleBlockInserter to those done for SplitFileInserterSegment: Make sure we always run onEncode before running onInsertSuccess, and run it inline if localRequestOnly is set. Plus, return early from a database exception.
Another activation fix. Thanks to an anonymous tester from FMS.
Store even if freed, if not removed.
Check freed even if wasn't active (and we fixed it).
Handle storing buckets that have been freed properly.
Log an error about it anyway.
Synchronization fix for non-persistent recent requests list.
Logging: This should only happen on encode.
Library edition 14.
Fix ClassCastException
Logging
Don't show the filter box at all on an unsafe content type warning, since we can't filter and have warned the user already. Which is not true on e.g. the too big error page.
Set finished = true on failure in USKInserter. Prevents NPE due to trying to free and null data twice.
Fix nested synchronized.
Logging
Logging: Show what we are still waiting for.
Logging
Fix setting the key wrong, copy code from segment again.
Fix NPE on collision.
Doh!
Make MySendableRequestSender static and use SBI only when we are sure we can use it.
Minor activation fix for compressor descriptor for single blocks.
Don't do recursive deactivation of metadata.
Document and work around really grotesque db4o issue with collections in SimpleManifestPutter.
Document it here too so it gets fixed before deployment.
Activate to MAX_VALUE not 100.
Comments: Fix re HashSet's
Comment: Ideas for a proper fix.
Fix bug #3159: Show a different warning if Library is in the process of being loaded than if it is not loaded at all.
Ignore XMLLibrarian
Allow what we haven't used of our bandwidth limit to reduce the overhead fraction. We can get into a sort of self-inflicted loop...
Some FIXMEs
A 20% minimum works for output limiting, so lets use it for the rest too.
Library v16
Doh
Don't show the filter data option if we are telling the user we can't filter the data - either for unknown type or known bad type.
If FEC decoding produces a data block that doesn't encode to the key expected, fail the download, it was probably inserted corrupt.

Miko (1):

1478 (2017-04-05):

- prepare pinned certs for the new Amazon-web-services based site.

1477 (2017-03-09):

- fix a potential clickjacking vulnerability in legacy browsers
- patch open redirect and header injection vulnerability introduced in 1476
- SSL with RSA certificates on fproxy has been broken in 1475, fix that

1475 (2016-06-25):

- 0006745: Disk crypto: Should type password twice when setting it
- 0006344: Change default compatibility mode to COMPAT_1466
- 0006488: using “visit freesite” to visit a freesite with a hash (#) fails instead of opening it and jumping to the anchor.
- fix a critical bug: prevent announcement loops
- drop support for negtype9 (non-cummulative ack logic)
- start to warn user that java7 is EOL
- PluginInfoMessage: Fix wrong "does not provide FCP" info about plugins
- Stop warning users that java9 isn't recent enough
- Don't use FOAF if the HTL isn't high enough
- Attempt to update update.sh
- l10n improvements
- cooldown improvements
- load-limiting changes (token buckets)

- the default compatibility mode for inserts is now COMPAT_CURRENT
- remove the DSA related parameters from noderefs
- Fix a major bug that might explain the poor connectivity since 1473

1473 (2016-05-22):

- MP3 filter fixes
- Reduce test memory usage
- Fix opennet announcements not having location set
- Fix binary blob download over FCP
- Add The Filtered Index to the default bookmark list
- Wait for running transfers on RouteNotFound
- Mark Freenet traffic with QoS
- Fix handling of filenames with non-ASCII spaces

1472 (2016-03-19):

- Fix uploads stalling when using MAXIMUM physical security.
- Fix lots of "setNativePriority(X) has failed!", which was caused by a serious thread priority problem. This might fix nodes unexpectedly losing peers.
- Order alerts within a category by time: if you have lots of messages from darknet peers they will remain nicely sorted.
- There is now a caching layer which should significantly reduce I/O load.
- Update WebOfTrust from build 15 to build 18. Its changelogs are separate, but the changes reduce CPU load. Incremental score recomputation requires roughly 3 percent of the time of full recomputation, and queuing trust lists to disk lowers thread usage.
- Add partial Greek translation.
- Update German, Bokmål, Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese translations.
- Fix Bokmål localization loading.
- Remove Gantros Index from the default bookmark list because it stopped updating.
- Remove Linkageddon from the default bookmark list because it stopped updating.
- New version of UPnP to fix some instability and compatibility problems. Thanks to 007pig we have a new UPnP plugin in development which supports UPnP2, but it is not yet included.
- New version of KeyUtils.

1471 (--):

- (skipped)

1470 (2015-08-15):

- FIX Freemail problems that prevented sending mail
- remove a compromised opennet seed node
- Freemail gains a new message link on the inbox page, links to
senders' WoT profiles, and new translations

1469 (2015-07-19):

- FIX two bugs introduced in build 1468. One caused very slow
operation and high CPU usage with large files and physical security
levels above None (i.e. Freenet-level disk encryption). The other
prevented interactive usage (e.g. freesite browsing) while finishing
large downloads or starting large uploads.

1468 (2015-07-11):

- Replace DB4O

- Existing unfinished downloads and uploads will be imported to a
new format, which requires restarting them from the beginning.
- Space for downloads is now all allocated at the start, so machines
very low on disk space may run out, which causes downloads to
temporarily fail until more space is available.
- CHKs will change due to metadata bugfixes.
- Some unofficial plugins will need to be updated because of API
changes. Sone already works, as do all official plugins.
- The queue format changes should make it extremely rare to lose the
entire queue: the impact of corruption will almost always be
localized.
- Multi-container / site uploads can now be persistent, making it
more practical to upload large sites.
- Passworded physical security is now much stronger. (Full-disk
encryption is still preferable.)

- Improve Windows installer

- The Windows installer now defaults to starting Freenet on login.
- There is a new Windows tray app with some useful features that is
included with new installations.

- misc

- The list of download keys moved from downloads/listFetchKeys.txt
to downloads/listKeys.txt.
- A list of upload keys is now available at uploads/listKeys.txt
- Gantros' index is now in the default bookmarks. It uses the same
software as Enzo's index, which is no longer updated.
- The obsolete and deprecated XMLLibrary and XMLSpider plugins are
no longer officially supported. They will still load for those who
have them added, but are no longer shown on the plugin page.
- In the interests of releasing this build more quickly, the new
version of FlogHelper does not support exporting and importing
backups from the web UI. The old backup code did not work with the
new Freenet version after removing db4o. People can instead back
up "plugins.floghelper.FlogHelper" files in the plugin-data
directory. These can be dropped into the directory after unloading
FlogHelper to restore a backup.
- ThawIndexBrowser works again. Thanks saces!
- Fred translations are updated.
- Add two seed nodes, one sponsored by meshnet.pl - the Polish
radio/meshnet darknet users group, and another run by
ArneBab. Thanks!
- Update existing seed node references.

build01482: 2018-11-11

Freenet 0.7.5 build 1482 is now available. [overview]

This release addresses increased CPU load in 1481 by reducing
the peer-count by 30%. The lower number of peers should reduce
the necessary work for routing. Since all nodes reduce their peercount,
the bandwidth per peer rises, so the speeds should stay the same.

Also 1482 applies the winterfacey theme adaptions by poet.
You can test the winterfacey theme by activating it in
Configuration -> Web interface.

Thank you for using Freenet!

Changes in 1482:

This is an emergency fix to address doubled to tripled CPU load in 1481.

- reduce opennet peernumber scaling_constant from 4 to 1.61803.
  Reduced peer-count should reduce the CPU load from routing.
  Since all reduce their peercount, the bandwidth per peer rises,
  and bandwidth should stay the same.
- reduce log level of removing wrong node or removing twice to minor
- apply the winterfacey adaptions by poets

Freenet 0.7.5 build 1481

Freenet 0.7.5 build 1481 is now available

The Freenet Team is proud to release Freenet build 1481, the first
build to be compiled from gradle! This concludes work during the past
two years to make it easier for new developers to start hacking on
Freenet.

Your Freenet node should update itself from Freenet via the auto-update.
To install a new node, get an installer from
https://freenetproject.org/pages/download.html

This release rekeys the update URIs to ensure they are compliant with
RFC6979. It also splits off java 7 into its own update key for 1482,
so we can use java 8 starting with 1483. The updated keys have been
split into shares using ssss-split and distributed among core
developers to maximize our release management bus factor:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_factor

We also added the Winterfacey theme and set sky-static as default
theme until Winterfacey got more testing. You can test switch between
themes on Configuration -> Web Interface

Thank you for using Freenet!

And a special thank you to DC* (desyncr) who tracked down an OOM so we
could finally fix it and release after 6 weeks of fruitless search!

Arne Babenhauserheide, current release manager

About Freenet:
Freenet is free software which lets you anonymously share files, browse
and publish "freesites" (web sites accessible only through Freenet) and
chat on forums, without fear of censorship. Freenet is decentralised to
make it less vulnerable to attack, and if used in "darknet" mode, where
users only connect to their friends, is very difficult to detect.
See https://freenetproject.org/pages/about.html

Developer changelog:

2018-10-16

Changes in 1481:

Switch to gradle. If you block network access of your development box,
you can use ./gradlew --offline jar test (you will then need to get
the dependencies yourself).

Switch from JNI (Java Native Interfaces) to JNA (Java Native
Access). This might allow getting rid of hard-to-build
freenet-ext.jar.

This also means that you need jna-4.2.2.jar and jna-platform-4.2.2.jar
in your freenet folder. The auto-updater takes care of that for you.
If you update manually by copying in new jar-files, you need to adapt
the classpath in wrapper.conf or in run.sh (if you do not use the wrapper).

Added a workaround for JNA bug in multi-user system: move tempdir into
the freenet folder: java.io.tmpdir=./tmp/; Needed until
java-native-access/jna#985 is fixed
upstream.

Changes to update keys: Rekey the update URIs to ensure they are
RFC6979. Split off java 7 into its own update key for 1482, so we can
use java 8 starting with 1483. The updated keys have been split into
shares using ssss-split and distributed among core developers. See
https://github.com/freenet/scripts/blob/master/generate_autoupdate_key

Add Winterfacey theme. Set sky-static as default theme until
Winterfacey got more testing.

Further changes:

Fix commons-compress bug, might help fix the Gentoo ebuild.
Execute in background mode (reduced I/O priority) on windows NT6+.
Override list request identifier
use fallocate
ipv6 fixes
fix warnings
optimization
Persist "Bookmark Updated" notifications across restarts
minimum bandwidth increased to 10KiB again
undo update of pinned SSL certificates (site no longer exists)
Add support for GIF89a
Fix wrapped FCP message
Add config option to allow caching of CHK and SSK keys
bookmarks: fix jumping layout (missing activelink)
reduce thread usage.
Prepare for Java 8 - 1482 will be the last build to support Java 7.

A heartfelt thank you to all involved!

And a special thank you to DC* (desyncr) who tracked down an OOM so we could finally fix it and release after 6 weeks of fruitless search!
