Twisted 22.10.0.rc1 (2022-10-26)

Features

• The systemd: endpoint parser now supports "named" file descriptors. This is a more reliable mechanism for choosing among several inherited descriptors. (#8147)

Bugfixes

• test.yaml workflow permissions restricted. (#11631)

Improved Documentation

• The systemd endpoint parser's index parameter is now documented as leading to non-deterministic results in which descriptor is selected. The new name parameter is now documented as preferred. (#8146)
• The implementers of Zope interfaces are once more displayed in the documentations. (#11690)

Deprecations and Removals

• twisted.protocol.dict, which was deprecated in 17.9, was now removed. (#11725)

Misc

• #11573, #11599, #11616, #11628, #11640, #11645, #11647, #11652, #11664, #11674, #11679, #11686, #11692, #11694, #11696, #11700, #11702, #11713, #11715, #11721

Conch

Bugfixes

• twisted.conch.manhole.ManholeInterpreter now captures tracebacks even if sys.excepthook has been modified. (#11638)

Web

Features

• The twisted.web.pages.errorPage, notFound, and forbidden each return an IResource that displays an HTML error pages safely rendered using twisted.web.template. (#11716)

Bugfixes

• twisted.web.error.Error.str no longer raises an exception when the error's message attribute is None. Additionally, it validates that code is a plausible 3-digit HTTP status code. (#10271)
• The typing of the twisted.web.http_headers.Headers methods addRawHeader() and setRawHeaders() now allow mixing str and bytes, matching the runtime behavior. (#11635)
• twisted.web.vhost.NameVirtualHost no longer echoes HTML received in the Host header without escaping it (CVE-2022-39348, GHSA-vg46-2rrj-3647). (#11716)

Deprecations and Removals

• twisted.web.resource.Resource.putChild now raises TypeError when the path argument is not bytes, rather than issuing a deprecation warning. (#8985)
• The twisted.web.resource.ErrorPage, NoResource, and ForbiddenResource classes have been deprecated in favor of new implementations twisted.web.pages module because they permit HTML injection. (#11716)

Mail

Bugfixes

• emailserver.tac now runs under python3.x (#11634)

Words

No significant changes.

Names

No significant changes.

Trial

Features

• twisted.trial.unittest.SynchronousTestCase.successResultOf is now annotated as accepting coroutines. (#11657)

Bugfixes

• The implementation of trial -jN ... now handles test errors and failures larger than 64 kB. It also handles other internal communication errors by logging them in the worker and attempting to send them to the parent process -- instead of crashing with UnknownRemoteError and no additional details. (#10314)
• trial -jN --logfile path no longer hangs if path contains a directory separator. (#11580)

Misc

• #11649, #11661, #11677, #11710
