6.6.9
 BUGFIXES:
	* When fetchmail was built with NTLM support, and a POP3 server send
	  a malformed challenge to the authentication request,
	  fetchmail would call strtok() on an uninitialized stack buffer and
	  could in extreme cases read off the end of the buffer if it did not
	  contain 0x00 or 0x20 bytes, and corrupt the first 0x20 character to 0x00.
	  This will not allow remote code injection but can cause undefined
	  behavior including crashes of fetchmail or corrupting one bit of memory.
	  This is a regression introduced by commit 09f95921 that also became
	  part of all fetchmail-6.6.7.rc1 and later release candidates and the
	  6.6.7 and 6.6.8 releases. It is separate from CVE-2026-94184 and
	  just happened to be introduced anew in the same releases that fixed
	  the mentioned CVE.
	  Reported by Jakub Kulik, Gitlab Issue #98.
	* Fix missing CR when sending multi-line warning messages from
	  daemon mode. Reported by Andrea Venturoli, Gitlab Issue #99.
6.6.8
 SECURITY ADVISORY:
	* fetchmail 6.6.8 updates the NEWS file (which you appear to be reading)
	  and the fetchmail-SA-2026-01 security announcement.  There are no code
	  changes since 6.6.7, but we need to prominently get the new documentation
	  out.  fetchmail-SA-2026-01 has been assigned CVE Id CVE-2026-94184.
 BUGFIX:
	* The Serbian (sr) translation was not installed due to an oversight in the
	  po/LINGUAS file.
 DEVELOPER-FACING CHANGE:
	* The "make check-git" target in the autotools build is more verbose
	  in case it errors out, usually due to uncommitted changes in the local
	  checkout.
 TRANSLATION UPDATES were contributed by these fine people - thank you!
	Please welcome the new traditional Chinese <zh_TW> translation!  非常感謝!
	* zh_TW: Alang Hsu [Chinese (traditional)]
	* sr:    Мирослав Николић [Serbian]
