Yaws version 1.56 has been released. It adds several new features and fixes a security problem.
Yaws is a WWW technology with capabilities similar to the combination of Apache with PHP and a database. Yaws runs faster, with smaller footprint, higher scalability, and higher reliability. Subjectively speaking, it uses a more beautiful technique to generate dynamic pages than other similar technologies.
This release adds several new features such as the possibility to have several docroots for a given virtual host, the concept of redirect map to redirect entire part of the docroot to another site, and initial Webdav support. This release also fix a security bug that allowed to get the code source of a page by sending a null character at the end of the request. |
