- Update to version 1.19.0
Security:
* Low. Stack overflow in ares_set_sortlist() which is used
during c-ares initialization and typically provided by an
administrator and not an end user.
Changes:
* Add ARES_OPT_HOSTS_FILE similar to ARES_OPT_RESOLVCONF for
specifying a custom hosts file location.
Bug fixes:
* Fix memory leak in reading /etc/hosts when using localhost
fallback.
* Fix chain building c-ares when libresolv is already included by
another project.
* File lookup should not immediately abort as there may be other
tries due to search criteria.
* Asterisks should be allowed in host validation as CNAMEs may
reference wildcard domains.
* AutoTools build system referenced bad STDC_HEADERS macro.
* Even if one address class returns a failure for
ares_getaddrinfo() we should still return the results we have.
* Fix ares_getaddrinfo() numerical address resolution with
AF_UNSPEC
* Fix tools and help information.
* Various documentation fixes and cleanups.
* Add include guards to ares_data.h
* c-ares could try to exceed maximum number of iovec entries
supported by system.
* The RFC6761 6.3 states localhost subdomains must be offline too
