Add additional variables to the release note files to allow setting the version number and date. The version number is required, and can be used to automatically set the release notes title. The date is optional and can be set hours/days after the release. Additionally, a Makefile test is added that checks whether the download files exist on the Bitcoin.org server. This can help prevent creating a broken Download page. * Set variables for all previous releases * Document variables in README.md * Update code and templates to use variables * Add the Download page links to the "dl" CSS class. Also add newlines to make the HTML a bit easier to parse using sed * Add a new Liquid plugin to print warnings. This is used to print a non-error warning if any release is created without the optional date

|
|
Bitcoin Core version 0.9.1 is now available from:
|
|
|
|
<https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.1/>
|
|
|
|
This is a security update. It is recommended to upgrade to this release
|
|
as soon as possible.
|
|
|
|
It is especially important to upgrade if you currently have version
|
|
0.9.0 installed and are using the graphical interface OR you are using
|
|
bitcoind from any pre-0.9.1 version, and have enabled SSL for RPC and
|
|
have configured allowip to allow rpc connections from potentially
|
|
hostile hosts.

How to Upgrade
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
|
|
shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the
|
|
installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or
|
|
bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).
|
|
|
|
If you are upgrading from version 0.7.2 or earlier, the first time you run
|
|
0.9.1 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take anywhere from
|
|
30 minutes to several hours, depending on the speed of your machine.
|
|
|
|
0.9.1 Release notes
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
No code changes were made between 0.9.0 and 0.9.1. Only the dependencies were changed.
|
|
|
|
- Upgrade OpenSSL to 1.0.1g. This release fixes the following vulnerabilities which can
|
|
affect the Bitcoin Core software:
|
|
|
|
- CVE-2014-0160 ("heartbleed")
|
|
A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension can
|
|
be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or server.
|
|
|
|
- CVE-2014-0076
|
|
The Montgomery ladder implementation in OpenSSL does not ensure that
|
|
certain swap operations have a constant-time behavior, which makes it
|
|
easier for local users to obtain ECDSA nonces via a FLUSH+RELOAD cache
|
|
side-channel attack.
|
|
|
|
- Add statically built executables to Linux build
