[Rspamd-Users] Rspamd 1.9.3 has been released

[Vsevolod Stakhov]

We have released Rspamd 1.9.3 today.

This release contains some new features and many bug fixes. There are no
incompatible changes introduced with this release to our best knowledge.

This release includes the following features and important changes.


Hashicorp Vault support

>From version 1.9.3, Rspamd can use Hashicorp Vault to store and manage
DKIM keys. Vault usage provides secure and flexible storage of the
private keys that can scale and use various backends to store sensible
data (secrets).

There is a new subcommand for rspamadm utility called vault that is
intended to create/remove and securely rotate DKIM private keys using
vault.

You can read more about it using the following link:

Added least passthrough result

Some modules should set metric result as LEAST POSSIBLE result. For
example, DMARC policy failure should at least mark failed messages as
spam but it should not prevent messages from being rejected. From this
release, such modules use least policy to set actions allowing to apply
a more strict policy if needed.


Tunable memory management

>From this version, Rspamd allows to manage memory policies for Lua
garbage collection allowing to fit memory/cpu constraints more flexible.
When Rspamd is built with jemalloc (e.g. in the default packages
provided by the project), it can also print detailed memory statistics
on full gc loops.

Here is an example for tuning GC in Rspamd when there are lots of free
memory available (around 1Gb per scanner process):

    # local.d/options.inc
    # http://pgl.yoyo.org/luai/i/2.10+Garbage+Collection
    lua_gc_step = 100;
    lua_gc_pause = 400;
    # number of scanned messages to perform full GC iteration
    full_gc_iters = 10000;


Improved oversigning logic

It is now possible to oversign existing only headers and ignore it if a
header is missing. It is done by changing (o) to (x).

The default list of headers signed is changed accordingly:

  Header                      Sign type
  --------------------------- ------------------------
  From                        Strictly oversign
  Sender                      Conditionally oversign
  Reply-To                    Strictly oversign
