+ o Minor features (geoip data):
+ - We have switched geoip data sources. Previously we shipped
+ IP-to-country mappings from Maxmind's GeoLite2, but in 2019 they
+ changed their licensing term, so we were unable to update them after
+ that point. We now ship geoip files based on the IPFire Location
+ Database instead. (See https://location.ipfire.org/ for more
+ information). This release updates our geoip files to match the
+ IPFire Location Database as retrieved on 2021/03/12. Closes
+ ticket 40224.

+ o Major bugfixes (security, denial of service):
+ - Disable the dump_desc() function that we used to dump unparseable
+ information to disk. It was called incorrectly in several places,
+ in a way that could lead to excessive CPU usage. Fixes bug 40286;
+ bugfix on 0.2.2.1-alpha. This bug is also tracked as
+ TROVE-2021-001 and CVE-2021-28089.
