NGINX 1.29.5 Mainline with Brotli, TLS 1.3, OpenSSL 3.5.4, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, Rocky, Oracle, Alma Linux EL7/EL8/EL9/EL10

nginx 1.29.5 Mainline with HTTP/3 support 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 3.5.4 builds break compatibility with nginx 1.28.x 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.

*) Security: an attacker might inject plain text data in the                              response from an SSL backend (CVE-2026-1642).

*) Bugfix: use-after-free might occur after switching to the next gRPC or HTTP/2 backend.

*) Bugfix: an invalid HTTP/2 request might be sent after switching to the next upstream.

*) Bugfix: a response with multiple ranges might be larger than the
source response.

*) Bugfix: fixed setting HTTP_HOST when proxying to FastCGI, SCGI, and uwsgi backends.

*) Bugfix: fixed warning when compiling with MSVC 2022 x86.

*) Change: the logging level of the "ech_required" SSL error has been lowered from "crit" to "info".

NGINX 1.28.1 Stable with Brotli, TLS 1.3, OpenSSL 3.5.4, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, Rocky, Oracle, Alma Linux EL7/EL8/EL9/EL10

nginx 1.28.1 Stable with HTTP/3 support 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 3.5.4 with QUIC support.

*) Security: processing of a specially crafted login/password when using
the "none" authentication method in the ngx_mail_smtp_module might
cause worker process memory disclosure to the authentication server
(CVE-2025-53859).

*) Bugfix: a segmentation fault might occur in a worker process if the
"try_files" directive and "proxy_pass" with a URI were used.

*) Bugfix: in handling "Host" and ":authority" header lines with equal
values when using HTTP/2; the bug had appeared in 1.17.9.

*) Bugfix: in handling "Host" header lines with a port when using
HTTP/3.

*) Bugfix: an XCLIENT command didn't use the xtext encoding.
Thanks to Igor Morgenstern of Aisle Research.

*) Bugfix: in SSL certificate caching during reconfiguration.

*) Bugfix: in delta-seconds processing in the "Cache-Control" backend
response header line.

*) Change: the native nginx/Windows binary release is now built using
Windows SDK 10.

*) Bugfix: nginx could not be built on NetBSD 10.0.

*) Bugfix: in HTTP/3.
