v0.7.0

Breaking change: srv now listens on 127.0.0.1 only, so other machines on the network can no longer connect by default. To open the pages from a phone or another computer, choose the address with the new -b, --bind option:

srv -b 0.0.0.0    # every IPv4 address
srv -b ::         # every IPv4 and IPv6 address, as before

This release also hardens the server:

• Named pipes and devices are no longer served. Opening a named pipe used to hang a connection, and with it the idle timeout.
• Requests with control characters or a NUL byte in the path are rejected. This closes a response-header injection and an escape-sequence injection into the log.
• Clients get 10 seconds to send a request, and are dropped if they stop reading for 30 seconds.
• At most 128 connections are handled at once; further connections get 503.
• A file that grows while being sent no longer produces a body longer than its Content-Length.
• Requests such as //docs no longer redirect to another host.

Release archives now come with a build provenance attestation. Check one with:

gh attestation verify srv-v0.7.0-<platform>.tar.gz --repo rognlien/srv

Full Changelog: v0.6.0...v0.7.0

v0.6.0

Breaking change: -c now sets the content type of a command's output, such as -c application/json. Commands are run with -x, --exec instead:

srv -x tail -f app.log
srv -c application/json -x ./report.sh

srv -c with a value that is not a content type, as in the old srv -c date, is rejected with an error.
