This release mainly focuses on new features, while also fixing a few bugs.

Fixes:

  • except ban { } without 'type' was not exempting from gline.
  • Channel mode +L #forward and +k key: should forward on wrong key, but was also redirecting on correct key.
  • Crash on 32-bit machines in tkldb (on start or rehash)
  • Crash when saving channeldb when a parameter channel mode is combined with +P and that module was loaded after channeldb. This may happen if you use 3rd party modules that add parameter channel modes.

Enhancements:

  • Spamfilter is now UTF8-aware. This means, among other things:
    • Case insensitive matches work better. For example, with extended Latin, a spamfilter on ę now also matches Ę.
    • Other PCRE2 features such as \p are now available. For example you can now set a spamfilter with the regex \p{Arabic} to block all Arabic script, or \p{Cyrillic} to block all Cyrillic script (such as Russian). Please do use these new tools with care. Blocking an entire language or script is quite a drastic measure.
    • These new features require the PCRE2 10.34 regex library. If you have a lower version on your system then UnrealIRCd will fall back to using the UnrealIRCd-shipped-library version 10.34. The only downside to that is that compiling during ./Config may take a little longer than usual.
  • antimixedutf8 has been improved to detect CJK and other scripts and this will now catch more mixed UTF8 spam. Note that, if you previously manually set the score very tight (much lower than the default of 10) then you may have to increase it a bit, or not, depending on your network.
  • Support for IRCv3 +typing clienttag, which adds "user is typing" support to channels and PM (if the client supports it).
  • New flood countermeasure, set::anti-flood::target-flood, which limits flooding to channels and users. This is only meant as a filter for high rate floods. You are still encouraged to use channel mode +f in channels which give you more customized and fine-grained options to deal with low- and medium-rate floods.
  • If a chanop /INVITEs someone, it will now override ban forwards such as +b ~f:#forward:*!*@*.

Changes:

  • We now do parallel builds by default (make -j4) within ./Config, unless the $MAKE or $MAKEFLAGS environment variable is set.
  • set::restrict-commands:
    • The disable option is now removed as it is implied. In other words: if you want to disable a command, then simply don't use connect-delay.
    • You can now have a block without connect-delay but still make users bypass the restriction with exempt-identified and/or exempt-reputation-score. Previously this was not possible.
  • We now give an error when an IRCOp tries to place an *LINE that already exists. (Previously we sometimes replaced the existing *LINE and other times we did not)
  • Add Polish HELPOP (help.pl.conf)

Module coders / Developers:

  • Breaking API change in HOOKTYPE_CAN_SEND_TO_USER and HOOKTYPE_CAN_SEND_TO_CHANNEL: the final argument has changed from int notice to SendType sendtype, which is an enum, since we now have 3 message options (PRIVMSG, NOTICE, TAGMSG).
