Whats New

(1.5.3) Two ISQL Improvements
C. Valderrama, D. Ivanov
1. Command line switch -b to bail out on error when used in non-interactive mode.
2. Return an error code to the operating system from command-line isql


(1.5.3) Make Old Column Naming Convention available
Paul Reeves
Added OldColumnNaming parameter to firebird.conf to allow users to revert to pre-V1.5 column
naming in Select expressions.


(1.5.3) Security diagnostics added
Alex Peshkoff
Attempts to send signals via a missing gds_relay may be an exploit attempt. They are now logged.


(1.5.3) Closed an Endemic Security Hole
Alex Peshkoff
Previously, a user could log into a server on a Unix/Linux host remotely, using a Linux UID and password
accepted on that host. It was recognised as a security hole and fixed in Firebird 2 development.
It is an endemic security bug in previous versions and InterBase. The security fix has been back-ported
to Firebird 1.5.3: a UID received from the client side is now not trusted.
