FlashMQ 1.17.3

FlashMQ 1.17.3 fixes a regression caused by 1.17.2. Picking up existing sessions with pending messages sent out packets in the wrong order: publishes before connack. This would cause various problems in clients.

Builds on flashmq.org

FlashMQ 1.17.2

FlashMQ version 1.17.2 contains a crash fix, and some minor improvements:

• When using a plugin that does async authentication and there was an error in continuing the authentication, the client was left around for use without a session, which could cause a null pointer dereference crash.
• SSL disconnecting and logging of it has been improved. It now prevents ‘unexpected eof’ errors on the other side by doing a proper shutdown, and logs whether clients do this properly or not. It’s a logging issue, not a security issue.
• Actual system errors on socket EPOLLERR is now logged. Example: connection reset by peer.
• Reduce some idle CPU caused by waiting for background tasks.
• FlashMQ binary now exits with error when giving extraneous positional argument. This prevents misleading arguments like flashmq flashmq.conf, which doesn’t actually load the config.
