    🐛 Bug fixes

  • v2.3.0 Changes

    May 06, 2019

    Highlights

    • 👌 Support for older browsers has been hopefully temporarily broken due to frontend changes in progress. Notably, Internet Explorer 11 is not supported in this release.

This set of browsers covers 98% of users of buildbot.net.

    🐛 Bug fixes

    • 🛠 Fixed :bb:step:Git to clean the repository after the checkout when submodules are enabled. Previously this action could lead to untracked module directories after changing branches.
    • Latent workers with negative build_wait_timeout will be shutdown on master shutdown.
    • Latent worker will now wait until start_instance() before starting stop_instance() or vice-versa. Master will wait for these functions to finish during shutdown.

    • 📚 The implementation language of the Buildbot web frontend has been changed from CoffeeScript to JavaScript. The documentation has not been updated yet, as we plan to transition to TypeScript. In the transitory period support for some browsers, notably IE 11 has been dropped. We hope to bring support for older browsers back once the transitory period is over.

  • v2.0.0 Changes

    February 02, 2019

    🗄 Deprecations and Removals

    • ✂ Removed support for Python 2.7 in the buildbot master code.
      🏗 Buildbot worker remains compatible with python2.7, and interoperability tests are run continuously.

      made private. Users of these undocumented APIs are encouraged to file bugs to
      get them exposed.
    • ✂ Removed support of old slave APIs from pre-0.9 days. Using old APIs may fail
      ⬆️ silently. To avoid weird errors when upgrading a Buildbot installation that
      ⬆️ may use old APIs, first upgrade to to 1.8.0 and make sure there are no
      🗄 deprecated API warnings.
    • ✂ Remove deprecated default value handling of the keypair_name and
      👷 security_name attributes of EC2LatentWorker.
    • 👌 Support for Hyper.sh containers cloud provider has been removed as this
      service has shutdown.

    🐛 Bug fixes

    🛠 Fix CRLF injection vulnerability with validating user provided redirect parameters (https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/wiki/CRLF-injection-in-Buildbot-login-and-logout-redirect-code)
    Thanks to mik317 and mariadb for reporting it.

    🛠 Fix lockup during master shutdown when there's a build with unanswered ping
    👷 from the worker and the TCP connection to worker is severed (issue:4575).

    🛠 Fix RemoteUserAuth.maybeAutLogin consumes bytes object as str leading to
    TypeError during JSON serialization. (:issue:4402)

    🛠 Various database integrity problems were fixed. Most notably, it is now
    possible to delete old changes without wiping all "child" changes in cascade
    (:issue:4539, :pull:4536).

    The GitLab change hook secret is now rendered correctly. (:issue:4118).
