* Wed Jan 12 2022 David Anes - fix [bsc#1194203]:
* Always create fetchmail group, even if the user is already present, as a leftover from Leap 15.2 upgrade. This may happen also if user is messing with groups/users directly or upgrading from even an older fetchmail versions.
* Mon Dec 27 2021 David Anes - update to 6.4.26:
* When using wolfSSL 5.0.0, work around a bug that appears to hit wolfSSL when receiving handshake records while still in SSL_peek(). Workaround is to read 1 byte and cache it, then call SSL_peek() again. This affects only some servers.
* New serbian translation.
* Sat Dec 11 2021 Dirk Müller - update to 6.4.25:
* 6.4.24\'s workaround for OpenSSL 1.0.2\'s X509_V_FLAG_TRUSTED_FIRST flag contained a typo and would not kick in properly.
* Library and/or rpath setting from configure.ac was fixed.
* Added an example systemd unit file and instructions to contrib/systemd/ which runs fetchmail as a daemon with 5-minute poll intervals.
* fetchmail can now be used with wolfSSL 5\'s OpenSSL compatibility layer, see INSTALL and README.SSL. This is considered experimental. Feedback solicited.
* Bison 3.8 dropped yytoknum altogether, breaking compilation due to a warning workaround. Remove the cast of yytoknum to void. This may cause a compiler warning to reappear with older Bison versions.
* OpenSSL 1.0.2: Workaround for systems that keep the expired DST Root CA X3 certificate in its trust store because OpenSSL by default prefers the untrusted certificate and fails.
* For common ssh-based IMAP PREAUTH setups (i. e. those that use a plugin - no matter its contents - and that set auth ssh), change the STARTTLS error message to suggest sslproto \'\' instead. This is a commonly reported issue after the CVE-2021-39272 fix in 6.4.22.- drop fetchmail-bison-3.8.patch (upstream)- Rebased patches:
* fetchmail-add-imap-oauthbearer-support.patch
* fetchmail-support-oauthbearer-xoauth2-with-pop3.patch
* Tue Nov 09 2021 Dominique Leuenberger - Add fetchmail-bison-3.8.patch: Fix build with bison 3.8.
* Wed Oct 06 2021 Pedro Monreal - Update to 6.4.22: [bsc#1190069, CVE-2021-39272]
* OPENSSL AND LICENSING NOTE: - fetchmail 6.4.22 is compatible with OpenSSL 1.1.1 and 3.0.0. OpenSSL\'s licensing changed between these releases from dual OpenSSL/SSLeay license to Apache License v2.0, which is considered incompatible with GPL v2 by the FSF. For implications and details, see the file COPYING.
* SECURITY FIXES: - CVE-2021-39272: fetchmail-SA-2021-02: On IMAP connections, without --ssl and with nonempty --sslproto, meaning that fetchmail is to enforce TLS, and when the server or an attacker sends a PREAUTH greeting, fetchmail used to continue an unencrypted connection. Now, log the error and abort the connection. --Recommendation for servers that support SSL/TLS-wrapped or \"implicit\" mode on a dedicated port (default 993): use --ssl, or the ssl user option in an rcfile. - On IMAP and POP3 connections, --auth ssh no longer prevents STARTTLS negotiation. - On IMAP connections, fetchmail does not permit overriding a server-side LOGINDISABLED with --auth password any more. - On POP3 connections, the possibility for RPA authentication (by probing with an AUTH command without arguments) no longer prevents STARTTLS negotiation. - For POP3 connections, only attempt RPA if the authentication type is \"any\".
* BUG FIXES: - On IMAP connections, when AUTHENTICATE EXTERNAL fails and we have received the tagged (= final) response, do not send \"
*\". - On IMAP connections, AUTHENTICATE EXTERNAL without username will properly send a \"=\" for protocol compliance. - On IMAP connections, AUTHENTICATE EXTERNAL will now check if the server advertised SASL-IR (RFC-4959) support and otherwise refuse (fetchmail <= 6.4 has not supported and does not support the separate challenge/response with command continuation) - On IMAP connections, when --auth external is requested but not advertised by the server, log a proper error message. - Fetchmail no longer crashes when attempting a connection with - -plugin \"\" or --plugout \"\". - Fetchmail no longer leaks memory when processing the arguments of --plugin or --plugout on connections. - On POP3 connections, the CAPAbilities parser is now caseblind. - Fix segfault on configurations with \"defaults ... no envelope\". This is a regression in fetchmail 6.4.3 and happened when plugging memory leaks, which did not account for that the envelope parameter is special when set as \"no envelope\". The segfault happens in a constant strlen(-1), triggered by trusted local input => no vulnerability. - Fix program abort (SIGABRT) with \"internal error\" when invalid sslproto is given with OpenSSL 1.1.0 API compatible SSL implementations.
* CHANGES: - IMAP: When fetchmail is in not-authenticated state and the server volunteers CAPABILITY information, use it and do not re-probe. (After STARTTLS, fetchmail must and will re-probe explicitly.) - For typical POP3/IMAP ports 110, 143, 993, 995, if port and --ssl option do not match, emit a warning and continue. - fetchmail.man and README.SSL were updated in line with RFC-8314/8996/8997 recommendations to prefer Implicit TLS (--ssl/ssl) and TLS v1.2 or newer, placing --sslproto tls1.2+ more prominently. The defaults shall not change between 6.4.X releases for compatibility.
* Rebase patches: fetchmail-add-imap-oauthbearer-support.patch fetchmail-add-query_to64_outsize-utility-function.patch fetchmail-support-oauthbearer-xoauth2-with-pop3.patch
* Tue Sep 14 2021 Johannes Segitz - Added hardening to systemd service(s) (bsc#1181400). Modified:
* fetchmail.service
* Tue Aug 24 2021 Pedro Monreal - Update to 6.4.21:
* REGRESSION FIX: The new security fix in 6.4.20 for CVE-2021-36386 caused truncation of messages logged to buffered outputs, predominantly --logfile.
* Thu Jul 29 2021 Pedro Monreal - Update to 6.4.20: [bsc#1188875, CVE-2021-36386]
* CVE-2021-36386: DoS or information disclosure in some configurations. When a log message exceeds c. 2 kByte in size, for instance, with very long header contents, and depending on verbosity option, fetchmail can crash or misreport each first log message that requires a buffer reallocation. fetchmail then reallocates memory and re-runs vsnprintf() without another call to va_start(), so it reads garbage. The exact impact depends on many factors around the compiler and operating system configurations used and the implementation details of the stdarg.h interfaces of the two functions mentioned before.
* Thu May 13 2021 Jeff Mahoney - Backported support for OAUTH2 authentication from Fetchmail 7.0. - add imap oauthbearer support - support oauthbearer/xoauth2 with pop3 - add passwordfile and passwordfd options - add contrib/fetchnmail-oauth2.py token acquisition utility - FAQ: list gmail options including oauthbearer and app password - give each ctl it\'s own copy of password - re-read passwordfile on every poll - add query_to64_outsize() utility function - Chase and integrate interface change. - oauth2.c: calculate and pass in correct buffer size to to64frombits() - Increase max password length to handle oauth tokens - Bump max. passwordlen to 10000 bytes. - Add README.OAUTH2- Added patches:

* Sat May 08 2021 Dirk Müller - update to 6.4.19:
* fetchmailconf: properly catch and report option parsing errors
* LMTP: do not try to validate the last component of a UNIX-domain LMTP socket as though it were a TCP port.
* Tue Apr 06 2021 Dirk Müller - update to 6.4.18:
* fetchmailconf: fetchmail 6.4.16 added --sslcertfile to the configuration dump, but fetchmailconf support was incomplete in Git 7349f124 and it could not parse sslcertfile, thus the user settings editor came up empty with console errors printed. Fix configuration parser in fetchmailconf.
* fetchmailconf: do not require fetchmail for -V. do not require Tk (Tkinter) for -d option. This is to fail more gracefully on incomplete installs.
* TLS code: remove OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED macros to avoid portability issues with OpenSSL v3 - these are for development purposes, not production.
* TLS futureproofing: use SSL_use_PrivateKey_file instead of SSL_use_RSAPrivateKey_file, the latter will be deprecated with OpenSSL v3, and the user\'s key file might be something else than RSA.
* IMAP client: it used to leak memory for username and password when trying the LOGIN (password-based) authentication and encountered a timeout situation.
* dist-tools/getstats.py: also counts lines in
*.py files, shown above.
* fetchmail.man: now mentions that you may need to add --ssl when specifying a TLS-wrapped port.
* fetchmailconf: --version (-V) now prints the Python version in use.
* Mon Mar 01 2021 Pedro Monreal - update to 6.4.16:
* fetchmail\'s --configdump, and fetchmailconf, lacked support for the sslcertfile option.
* fetchmail --version [fetchmail -V] now queries and prints the SSL/TLS library\'s \"SSL default trusted certificate\" file or directory (mind the word \"default\"), where the OpenSSL-compatible TLS implementation will look for trusted root, meaning certification authority (CA), certificates.
* fetchmail --version now prints version of the OpenSSL library that it was compiled against, and that it is using at runtime, and also the OPENSSL_DIR and OPENSSL_ENGINES_DIR (if available).
* Mon Jan 04 2021 Dirk Müller - update to 6.4.15:
* Fix a typo in the manual page reported by David McKelvie.
* Fix cross-compilation with openssl, by Fabrice Fontaine. Merge request !23.
* Fix truncation of SMTP PLAIN AUTH with ^ in credentials, by Earl Chew.
