Description Manuel Rüger (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-12-27 21:25:41 UTC
Changes with nginx 1.11.8                                        27 Dec 2016

    *) Feature: the "absolute_redirect" directive.

    *) Feature: the "escape" parameter of the "log_format" directive.

    *) Feature: client SSL certificates verification in the stream module.

    *) Feature: the "ssl_session_ticket_key" directive supports AES256
       encryption of TLS session tickets when used with 80-byte keys.

    *) Feature: vim-commentary support in vim scripts.
       Thanks to Armin Grodon.

    *) Bugfix: recursion when evaluating variables was not limited.

    *) Bugfix: in the ngx_stream_ssl_preread_module.

    *) Bugfix: if a server in an upstream in the stream module failed, it
       was considered alive only when a test connection sent to it after
       fail_timeout was closed; now a successfully established connection is
       enough.

    *) Bugfix: nginx/Windows could not be built with 64-bit Visual Studio.

    *) Bugfix: nginx/Windows could not be built with OpenSSL 1.1.0.



Changes with nginx 1.11.7                                        13 Dec 2016

    *) Change: now in case of a client certificate verification error the
       $ssl_client_verify variable contains a string with the failure
       reason, for example, "FAILED:certificate has expired".

    *) Feature: the $ssl_ciphers, $ssl_curves, $ssl_client_v_start,
       $ssl_client_v_end, and $ssl_client_v_remain variables.

    *) Feature: the "volatile" parameter of the "map" directive.

    *) Bugfix: dependencies specified for a module were ignored while
       building dynamic modules.

    *) Bugfix: when using HTTP/2 and the "limit_req" or "auth_request"
       directives client request body might be corrupted; the bug had
       appeared in 1.11.0.

    *) Bugfix: a segmentation fault might occur in a worker process when
       using HTTP/2; the bug had appeared in 1.11.3.

    *) Bugfix: in the ngx_http_mp4_module.
       Thanks to Congcong Hu.

    *) Bugfix: in the ngx_http_perl_module.

Hi Thomas,

Do you have any problems with the update to Nginx 1.11.8?

In version 1.11.7 is fixed critical HTTP/2 bug that caused us big complications.

Thank  you.
