BUG FIXES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Limit the number of orphan transactions stored in memory, to prevent a potential denial-of-service attack by flooding orphan transactions. Also never store invalid transactions at all.
|
||
|
|
Fix possible buffer overflow on systems with very long application data paths. This is not exploitable.
|
||
|
|
Resolved multiple bugs preventing long-term unlocking of encrypted wallets (issue #922).
|
||
|
|
Only send local IP in "version" messages if it is globally routable (ie, not private), and try to get such an IP from UPnP if applicable.
|
||
|
|
Reannounce UPnP port forwards every 20 minutes, to workaround routers expiring old entries, and allow the -upnp option to override any stored setting.
|
||
|
|
Various memory leaks and potential null pointer deferences have been
|
||
|
|
fixed.
|
||
|
|
Several shutdown issues have been fixed.
|
||
|
|
Check that keys stored in the wallet are valid at startup, and if not,
|
||
|
|
report corruption.
|
||
|
|
Various build fixes.
|
||
|
|
If no password is specified to bitcoind, recommend a secure password.
|
||
|
|
Update hard-coded fallback seed nodes, choosing recent ones with long uptime and versions at least 0.4.0.
|
||
|
|
Add checkpoint at block 168,000.
