Revision history for Perl extension Mail::SpamCannibal
0.39 Thu Jun 24 11:35:08 PDT 2004
oops! Fixed PGP code in ScriptSupport::mailcheck v0.24
that had been commented out for debugging
0.38 not released to CPAN, but was on the web site for awhile
minor (annoying) bug fixes... my bad :-(
commented out several "use diagnostics" inadvertently remaining
corrected test at line 1624 of ScriptSupport.pm v0.23 which failed
on undefined value, reversed order of test to detect undefined first
0.37 Wed Jun 23 19:42:20 PDT 2004
Minor updates to the INSTALL document re: dnsbl installation
corrected major typo in sc_session.pl v1.08 that pointed to the dbhome
directory. The recent upgrade of IPTables... uncovered a missing
variable in the SiteConfig hash that was duplicated in IPTables
and did not (should not) exist in SpamCannibal SiteConfig.
added test in cannibal.cgi v1.20 to detect missing query and ignore.
0.36 Wed Jun 23 13:10:52 PDT 2004
updated the documentation in ./config/sc_Blacklist.conf
to clarify problems with the timeouts in sendmail when using
Net::DNSBL::MultiDaemon
removed duplicate use [module] qw(inet_aton inet_ntoa);
in cannibal.cgi. Also, line 826
=~ spamlst...
should be =~ /^spamlst/...
Thanks to "Jonathan Baker-Bates" <jonathan@bakerbates.com>
for spotting those two mistakes.
Changes to DNSBLserver 0.26
fixed bug in ns.c that prevented 127.xx.xx.xx response TXT strings
inserted by rc.dnsbls from being reported
added zonefile.c and zonedump.c so that dnsbls can
dump a zonefile to the dbhome directory on receipt
of a SIG_USR2
add script 'sc_zoneload' to load a BIND or 'dig' zone file
into the database.
0.35 NOT RELEASED -- distributed for testing, changes included above
0.34 Tue Jun 8 16:29:39 PDT 2004
updated rc.bdbaccess v0.06 and rc.dnsbls v0.10 to fix bug for
perl v5.8.3 where unshift does not work properly for default @_
update sc_recoverdb.pl v1.01 to remove environment on an update
0.33 NOT RELEASED
updated SMTPsend.pm v0.03 to properly include To: and From: headers
instead of depending on the MTA to provide them. This is necessary
so that spamassassian does not flag messages as spam. and... I
overlooked it.
updated ScriptSupport.pm v0.22 to check mode, uid, gid of one of
the db files to use for restoring db environment files.
added utility sc_recoverdb.pl + documentation
0.32 Wed May 26 12:21:37 PDT 2004
corrected a code typo in ScriptSupport.pm v0.21 that returned an undef
instead of the value expected -- not noticed because the expected
return was "false"
updated internal call in ParseMessage.pm v0.06 sub _host2ip, to return
255.255.255.255 for hosts where the gethostbyname lookup fails.
This allows this forces all unknown hosts to fail certain test
instead of matching a ''.
0.31 Sat May 22 10:45:37 PDT 2004
updated DNSBLserver and BDBaccess packages to remove
compiler dependent bug when extracting the C version
from the primary *.PM file
0.30 Mon May 10 19:34:54 PDT 2004
update ScriptSupport v0.20 'BLpreen' to check the
age of each tarpit entry and not bother to check
blcontrib entries that are older than 5x the CRON interval
for the BLpreen job. Last preen time is stored in the
mandatory 127.0.0.2 entry in the 'tarpit' database
Add the entry 'FORCE_PREEN' to the sc_BLacklist.conf file
to force the old behavior.
DNSBLserver v0.24, modified rc.dnsbls so that tarpit records
forceably added from the config file (such at 127.0.0.2,
127.0.0.3, etc...) are tested first for existence and NOT
added if they already exist. This preserves the data (time tag)
on these records so that they can be used by other routines --
noteably, 127.0.0.2 which should always be present is used by
sc_BLpreen.pl to determine it's own cron interval
0.29 Sat May 1 15:37:43 PDT 2004

PidUtil remains but imports all its functions from

after hotlink for IP address in secondary db display

Removed easynet.nl from the sample sc_Blacklist.conf file,
they went out of service 12-1-03
Removed dsbl.org from sample sc_Blacklist.conf file, this

fix PidUtil to print on STDERR instead of STDOUT and add error

correct logic in ns.c to report 127.x.x.x codes in zone transfers.

0.17 Sat Oct 11 08:28:02 PDT 2003
squash a test bug in DNSBLserver
modifiy sc_session.pl to access database directly for CIDR/24
related IP lookups rather than have cannibal.cgi use BDBclient.

0.16 Fri Oct 10 13:46:42 PDT 2003
This release contains many bug fixes as well as some new features
in the admin interfac.
The following modules should be updated when installing this
release:
IPTables::IPv4::DBTarpit verion 0.22
Net::DNS::Codes 0.08
Net::DNS::ToolKit 0.14
and the optional
LaBrea::Tarpit version 1.20
---------------------------------------------------------------
add "add CIDR/24 and delete CIDR24" functions to admin tools
corrected bad use of 'clean' function in sc_session.pl
on non-strings such as netaddrs, addresses which end in '0'
like 1.2.3.10 are truncated by 'clean'. This function SHOULD always
be called on real strings or numbers, not string like objects such
as netaddrs.
add -x expires option to sc_cleanup.pl
add dbjob_xxx utilities to ScriptSupport.pm 0.10 for db watcher
add missing PidUtil qw(get_script_name) to sc_mailfilter.pl
update test suites to accomodate libdbtarpit change
add support for DB watcher to all daemons and scripts.
each daemon and script creates a PID file in the db environment
directory and NOW removes the file on clean exit. The watcher script
periodically checks whether the files described by the pid's are
actually running and will signal the remaining jobs to exit,
remove and recreate the environment and restart the jobs.
add administrative screen shots to document package
correct sc_web.conf.example for missing entry to
support admin change password
change nav.incl a href for 'docs' to 'docs/' to
for the web robots. This is comsmetic since the
href is not used anyway, but the robots see it.
in cannibal.cgi, modify 'whois' and 'lookup' to insert the
IP address into the text box when the web interface is used.
Correct typo *gt should be >
update DNSBL list in sc_BlackList.conf
0.15 Tue Sep 30 10:01:08 PDT 2003
modify spam_report.cgi to do a better job of extracting
URL information from the DNSBL TXT records
add onUnLoad function to spam_report.cgi to
close popup window in multi-site environment.
Requires LaBrea::Tarpit::Report v 1.09

deleted public/html/whois.cgi

Makefile.PL
fixed install for $(SPAMCANNIBAL_HOME)/public_html/tmp

spam_report.cgi.example
corrected variable name 'usr' should be 'url' in
public_html/spam_report.cgi
correct the name of the 'dbtarpit' daemon displayed
by 'spam_report.cgi'
eliminate 'whois.cgi' as it does not work with MSIE in
the pop-up window. Add workaround in LaBrea::Tarpit::Report
which must be used with this version for all to work well.
