Update Information:
Libidn 2.2.0 (released 2019-05-23) ================================== *

input to punycode decoder * Fix punycode decoding with no ASCII chars but
given delimiter * Fix `idn2 --no-tr64` (was a no-op) * Allow `_` as a basic
code point in domain labels * Fail building documentation if `ronn` isn't

https://semver.org/ Libidn 2.1.1
(released 2019-02-08) ================================== * Revert SONAME bump
from release 2.1.0 * Fix NULL dereference in `idn2_register_u8()` and
`idn2_register_ul()` * Fix free of random value in `idn2_to_ascii_4i()` *
Improved fuzzer (which found the above issues) * Fix `printf()` crash in
`test-lookup.c` on Solaris * Check for valid unicode input in punycode encoder
* Avoid excessive CPU usage in punycode encoding with large inputs * Deprecate
`idn2_to_ascii_4i()` in favor of `idn2_to_ascii_4i2()` * Restrict output

exposed: `_idn2_punycode_encode()` and `_idn2_punycode_decode()` which were
meant to be used internally only. The output needs additional checks to be used
safely. This is the reason to for the SONAME bump, just in case. * Fix label
length check for `idn2_register_u8()` * Remove compiler warnings * Use
gnulib-python tool for bootstrapping if possible * Improve build system
(several small issues) * Add missing error messages to `idn2_strerror_name()`
* Improve docs and remove typos * Update gnulib

monitor one or more log files. Log messages are parsed, line-by-line, for
recognized patterns. If an attack, such as several login failures within a few
seconds, is detected, the offending IP is blocked. Offenders are unblocked after
a set interval, but can be semi-permanently banned using the blacklist option.
First release to EPEL repositories - see the changelog in sshguard.spec for past
changes.
