v2.6 Changes
April 01, 2014๐ Released 2014-02-11
๐ Security:
- CVE-2013-6401: The hash function used by the hashtable implementation has been changed, and is automatically seeded with random data when the first JSON object is created. This prevents an attacker from causing large JSON objects with specially crafted keys perform poorly.
๐ New features:
json_object_seed()
: Set the seed value of the hash function.
๐ Bug fixes:
- Include CMake specific files in the release tarball.
๐ Documentation:
- Fix tutorial source to send a User-Agent header, which is now required by the GitHub API.
- Set all memory to zero in secure_free() example.
