Posted: Tue 17 Oct '06 16:10 Post subject: ModSecurity 2.0.1 released |
|
|
ModSecurity 2.0.1 is now available here at the download page.
Feature-wise, there are many improvements over ModSecurity 1.x . Some of the major improvements include:
IP address tracking and scoring.
Transaction scoring.
Real-time Block Lists (RBL) support.
Improvements to the response buffering code.
New engine feature: functions.
New engine feature: transaction variables.
New engine feature: custom persistent variable collections.
New engine feature: regex backrefences support.
Inclusion of Apache error log messages in audit log.
Ability to inspect Apache error log messages.
Application session tracking and scoring.
User account tracking and scoring.
Honeypot proxying based on IP address, session, or user account.
New engine feature: per-rule normalisation options.
Rule engine rewrite splits rule processing into multiple phases: request headers, request body, response headers, response body, logging.
XML support, which allows XML to be parsed, validated (using a DTD or a Schema), and data extracted using XPath expressions.
Many other improvements throughout.

I tried to compile it on Windows but it complains about the missing "pcre.h". Can anyone give me a hand? |

I'm sorry for the error. It is "pcre.lib", not "pcre.h". I can't find it in the Apache sources. |

I suppose this directory exists only after the compilation of Apache and not in the raw sources... |

I finally compiled the module, but I have one question. What are the advantages or disadvantages of compiling with libxml2? |
