nginx 1.29.6 Mainline with HTTP/3 support featuring sticky sessions support for upstreams added to EL7, EL8, EL9, EL10 repositories. brotli compression module from Google, http2, ngx cache purge and ngx http geoip2 modules added or built-in. OpenSSL built dynamically using official OpenSSL 3.5.1 with QUIC support.
Our OpenSSL 3.5.X builds break compatibility with nginx 1.28.1 and earlier versions, as they are compiled against quictls project with their own APIs. Thus, to upgrade OpenSSL QUIC libs, please use nginx >= 1.29.0.
*) Feature: session affinity support; the "sticky" directive in the "upstream" block of the "http" module; the "server" directive supports the "route" and "drain" parameters.
*) Change: now nginx limits the size and rate of QUIC stateless reset packets.
*) Bugfix: receiving a QUIC packet by a wrong worker process could cause the connection to terminate.
*) Bugfix: "[crit] cache file ... contains invalid header" messages might appear in logs when sending a cached HTTP/2 response.
*) Bugfix: proxying to scgi backends might not work when using chunked transfer encoding and the "scgi_request_buffering" directive. Thanks to Mufeed VH.
*) Bugfix: in the ngx_http_mp4_module.
Thanks to Andrew Lacambra.
*) Bugfix: nginx treated a comma as separator in the "Cookie" request header line when evaluating "$cookie_..." variables.
*) Bugfix: in IMAP command literal argument parsing.
