* Issue #10916: mmap should not segfault when a file is mapped using 0 asAntoine Pitrou2011-01-151-0/+4
| | | | | | | length and a non-zero offset, and an attempt to read past the end of file is made (IndexError is raised instead). Patch by Ross Lagerwall. Requested by Georg.
* Issue #10913: Deprecate misleading functions PyEval_AcquireLock() andAntoine Pitrou2011-01-151-0/+3
| | | | PyEval_ReleaseLock(). The thread-state aware APIs should be used instead.

* Issue #4953: cgi.FieldStorage and cgi.parse() parse the request as bytes, notVictor Stinner2011-01-141-0/+4

* #5871: protect against header injection attacks.R. David Murray2011-01-091-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | This makes Header.encode throw a HeaderParseError if it winds up formatting a header such that a continuation line has no leading whitespace and looks like a header. Since Header accepts values containing newlines and preserves them (and this is by design), without this fix any program that took user input (say, a subject in a web form) and passed it to the email package as a header was vulnerable to header injection attacks. (As far as we know this has never been exploited.) Thanks to Jakub Wilk for reporting this vulnerability.
* NEWS: merge #1777412 and #10827 entriesVictor Stinner2011-01-081-11/+6

* Issue #1777412: document the change in the NEWS fileVictor Stinner2011-01-081-0/+5
|
* Issue #10859: Make `contextlib.GeneratorContextManager` officiallyAntoine Pitrou2011-01-081-0/+3
| | | | private by renaming it to `_GeneratorContextManager`.
* Issue #10042: Fixed the total_ordering decorator to handle cross-typeRaymond Hettinger2011-01-081-0/+3
| | | | comparisons that could lead to infinite recursion.
* #10686: recode non-ASCII headers to 'unknown-8bit' instead of ?s.R. David Murray2011-01-071-0/+4
| | | | | | This applies only when generating strings from non-RFC compliant binary input; it makes the existing recoding behavior more consistent (ie: now no data is lost when recoding).
* Fix formatting of values with embedded newlines when rfc2047 encodingR. David Murray2011-01-071-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | Before this patch if a value being encoded had an embedded newline, the line following the newline would have no leading whitespace, and the whitespace it did have was encoded into the word. Now the existing whitespace gets turned into a blank, the way it does in other header reformatting, and the _continuation_ws gets added at the beginning of the encoded line.
* Put NEWS entry in the right section.Antoine Pitrou2011-01-071-4/+4

* Issue #8020: Avoid a crash where the small objects allocator would readAntoine Pitrou2011-01-071-0/+4
| | | | | non-Python managed memory while it is being modified by another thread. Patch by Matt Bandy.
* Issue #10827: Changed the rules for 2-digit years. The time.asctimeAlexander Belopolsky2011-01-071-0/+8
| | | | | | | | function will now format any year when time.accept2dyear is false and will accept years >= 1000 otherwise. The year range accepted by time.mktime and time.strftime is still system dependent, but time.mktime will now accept full range supported by the OS. Conversion of 2-digit years to 4-digit is deprecated.
* Issue #10841: set binary mode on files; the parser translates newlinesVictor Stinner2011-01-071-0/+4
| | | | | | On Windows, set the binary mode on stdin, stdout, stderr and all io.FileIO objects (to not translate newlines, \r\n <=> \n). The Python parser translates newlines (\r\n => \n).
* Get --coverage to be an acceptable flag for test.regrtest again.Brett Cannon2011-01-061-0/+2

* Remove buffer API from stable ABI for now, see #10181.Martin v. Löwis2011-01-061-0/+2

* Issue #7858: Raise an error properly when os.utime() fails under WindowsAntoine Pitrou2011-01-061-0/+3
| | | | | | on an existing file. (this does not seem to be easily testable)
* Issue #3839: wsgiref should not override a Content-Length header set byAntoine Pitrou2011-01-061-0/+3
| | | | the application. Initial patch by Clovis Fabricio.
* Issue #10655: Fix the build on PowerPC on Linux with GCC when building withDavid Malcolm2011-01-061-0/+5
| | | | | | timestamp profiling (--with-tsc): the preprocessor test for the PowerPC support now looks for "__powerpc__" as well as "__ppc__": the latter seems to only be present on OS X; the former is the correct one for Linux with GCC.
* Issue #1677694: Refactor and improve test_timeout. Original patch byAntoine Pitrou2011-01-061-0/+3
| | | | Björn Lindqvist.
* Issue #10492: bdb.Bdb.run() only traces the execution of the codeVictor Stinner2011-01-061-0/+3
| | | | And not the compilation (if the input is a string).
* Fix mistake in NEWSAntoine Pitrou2011-01-051-1/+1

* Issue #7995: When calling accept() on a socket with a timeout, the returnedAntoine Pitrou2011-01-051-0/+3

* Issue #5485: Add tests for the UseForeignDTD method of expat parser objects.Antoine Pitrou2011-01-051-0/+3
| | | | Patch by Jean-Paul Calderone and Sandro Tosi.

* Issue #10756: atexit normalizes the exception before displaying it.Victor Stinner2011-01-051-0/+2
|
* #10790: make append work when output codec is different from input codecR. David Murray2011-01-051-0/+3
| | | | | There's still a bug here (the encode call shouldn't use the 'errors' paramter), but I'll fix that later.
* Issue #8013: time.asctime and time.ctime no longer call system asctimeAlexander Belopolsky2011-01-041-0/+6
| | | | | | | and ctime functions. The year range for time.asctime is now 1900 through maxint. The range for time.ctime is the same as for time.localtime. The string produced by these functions is longer than 24 characters when year is greater than 9999.
* Issue #9015, #9611: stdprinter.write() clamps the length to 2^31-1 on WindowsVictor Stinner2011-01-041-2/+2

* Issue #10819: SocketIO.name property returns -1 when its closed, instead ofVictor Stinner2011-01-041-0/+3
| | | | raising a ValueError, to fix repr().
* Issue #8650: zlib.compress() and zlib.decompress() raise an OverflowError ifVictor Stinner2011-01-041-0/+4
| | | | | the input buffer length doesn't fit into an unsigned int (length bigger than 2^32-1 bytes).
* Issue #8651: PyArg_Parse*() functions raise an OverflowError if the fileVictor Stinner2011-01-041-0/+4
| | | | | doesn't have PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN define and the size doesn't fit in an int (length bigger than 2^31-1).
