AdGuard Home Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

Unreleased

Added

  • The new HTTP API POST /clients/search that finds clients by their IP addresses, CIDRs, MAC addresses, or ClientIDs. See openapi/openapi.yaml for the full description.

Deprecated

  • The GET /clients/find HTTP API is deprecated. Use the new POST /clients/search API.

Fixed

  • The formatting of large numbers on the dashboard (#7329).

v0.107.55 - 2024-12-11

See also the v0.107.55 GitHub milestone.

Security

  • The permission check and migration on Windows has been fixed to use the Windows security model more accurately (#7400).

  • Go version has been updated to prevent the possibility of exploiting the Go vulnerabilities fixed in 1.23.4.

  • The Windows executables are now signed.

Added

  • The --no-permcheck command-line option to disable checking and migration of permissions for the security-sensitive files and directories, which caused issues on Windows (#7400).

Fixed

  • Setup guide styles in Firefox.

  • Goroutine leak during the upstream DNS server test (#7357).

  • Goroutine leak during configuration update resulting in increased response time (#6818).

v0.107.54 - 2024-11-06

See also the v0.107.54 GitHub milestone.

Security

  • Incorrect handling of sensitive files permissions on Windows (#7314).

Changed

  • Improved filtering performance (#6818).

Fixed

  • Repetitive statistics log messages (#7338).

  • Custom client cache (#7250).

  • Missing runtime clients with information from the system hosts file on first AdGuard Home start (#7315).

v0.107.53 - 2024-10-03

See also the v0.107.53 GitHub milestone.

Security

  • Previous versions of AdGuard Home allowed users to add any system file it had access to as filters, exposing them to be world-readable. To prevent this, AdGuard Home now allows adding filtering-rule list files only from files matching the patterns enumerated in the filtering.safe_fs_patterns property in the configuration file.

    We thank @itz-d0dgy for reporting this vulnerability, designated CVE-2024-36814, to us.

  • Additionally, AdGuard Home will now try to change the permissions of its files and directories to more restrictive ones to prevent similar vulnerabilities as well as limit the access to the configuration.

    We thank @go-compile for reporting this vulnerability, designated CVE-2024-36586, to us.

  • Go version has been updated to prevent the possibility of exploiting the Go vulnerabilities fixed in 1.23.2.

Added

  • Support for 64-bit RISC-V architecture (#5704).

  • Ecosia search engine is now supported in safe search (#5009).

Changed

  • Upstream server URL domain names requirements has been relaxed and now follow the same rules as their domain specifications.

Configuration changes

In this release, the schema version has changed from 28 to 29.

  • The new array filtering.safe_fs_patterns contains glob patterns for paths of files that can be added as local filtering-rule lists. The migration should add list files that have already been added, as well as the default value, $DATA_DIR/userfilters/*.

Fixed

  • Property clients.runtime_sources.dhcp in the configuration file not taking effect.

  • Stale Google safe search domains list (#7155).

  • Bing safe search from Edge sidebar (#7154).

  • Text overflow on the query log page (#7119).

Known issues

  • Due to the complexity of the Windows permissions architecture and poor support from the standard Go library, we have to postpone the proper automated Windows fix until the next release.

    Temporary workaround: Set the permissions of the AdGuardHome directory to more restrictive ones manually. To do that:

    1. Locate the AdGuardHome directory.

    2. Right-click on it and navigate to Properties → Security → Advanced.

    3. (You might need to disable permission inheritance to make them more restricted.)

    4. Adjust to give the Full control access to only the user which runs AdGuard Home. Typically, Administrator.

v0.107.52 - 2024-07-04

Added

  • The ability to disable logging using the new log.enabled configuration property (#7079).

Changed

  • Frontend rewritten in TypeScript.

  • The systemd-based service now uses journal for logging by default. It also doesnt create the /var/log/ directory anymore (#7053).

Changed

  • Private rDNS resolution (dns.use_private_ptr_resolvers in YAML configuration) now requires a valid "Private reverse DNS servers", when enabled (#6820).

    NOTE: Disabling private rDNS resolution behaves effectively the same as if no private reverse DNS servers provided by user and by the OS.

Fixed

  • Statistics for 7 days displayed by day on the dashboard graph (#6712).

  • Missing "served from cache" label on long DNS server strings (#6740).

  • Incorrect tracking of the system hosts files changes (#6711).

Added

  • Context menu item in the Query Log to add a Client to the Persistent client list (#6679).

Changed

  • Starting with this release our scripts are using Gos forward compatibility mechanism for updating the Go version.

    Important note for porters: This change means that if your go version is 1.21+ but is different from the one required by AdGuard Home, the go tool will automatically download the required version.

    If you want to use the version installed on your builder, run:

    go get go@$YOUR_VERSION
    go mod tidy
    

    and call make with GOTOOLCHAIN=local.

  • The field "upstream_mode" in POST /control/dns_config and GET /control/dns_info HTTP APIs now accepts load_balance value. Check openapi/CHANGELOG.md for more details.

Configuration changes

In this release, the schema version has changed from 27 to 28.

  • The new property clients.persistent.*.uid, which is a unique identifier of the persistent client.

  • The properties dns.all_servers and dns.fastest_addr were removed, their values migrated to newly added field dns.upstream_mode that describes the logic through which upstreams will be used. See also a Wiki page.

  • Default exposure of the non-standard ports 784 and 8853 for DNS-over-QUIC in the Dockerfile.

Fixed

  • Two unspecified IPs when a host is blocked in two filter lists (#5972).

  • Incorrect setting of Parental Control cache size.

  • Excessive RAM and CPU consumption by Safe Browsing and Parental Control filters (#5896).

Removed

  • The HEALTHCHECK section and the use of tini in the ENTRYPOINT section in Dockerfile (#5939). They caused a lot of issues, especially with tools like docker-compose and podman.

    NOTE: Some Docker tools may cache ENTRYPOINT sections, so some users may be required to backup their configuration, stop the container, purge the old image, and reload it from scratch.

v0.107.33 - 2023-07-03

See also the v0.107.33 GitHub milestone.

Added

  • The new command-line flag --web-addr is the address to serve the web UI on, in the host:port format.

  • The ability to set inactivity periods for filtering blocked services, both globally and per client, in the configuration file (#951). The UI changes are coming in the upcoming releases.

  • The ability to edit rewrite rules via PUT /control/rewrite/update HTTP API and the Web UI (#1577).

Changed

Configuration changes

In this release, the schema version has changed from 20 to 23.

  • Properties bind_host, bind_port, and web_session_ttl which used to setup web UI binding configuration, are now moved to a new object http containing new properties address and session_ttl:

    # BEFORE:

      'address': '1.2.3.4:8080'
      'session_ttl': '720h'
    

    Note that the new http.session_ttl property is now a duration string. To rollback this change, remove the new object http, set back bind_host, bind_port, web_session_ttl, and change the schema_version back to 22.

  • Property clients.persistent.blocked_services, which in schema versions 21 and earlier used to be a list containing ids of blocked services, is now an object containing ids and schedule for blocked services:

    # BEFORE:
    'clients':
      'persistent':
        - 'name': 'client-name'
          'blocked_services':
          - id_1
          - id_2
    
    # AFTER:

            'end': '23h'
    

    To rollback this change, replace clients.persistent.blocked_services object with the list of ids of blocked services and change the schema_version back to 21.

  • Property dns.blocked_services, which in schema versions 20 and earlier used to be a list containing ids of blocked services, is now an object containing ids and schedule for blocked services:

    # BEFORE:
    'blocked_services':
    - id_1
    - id_2

  • The ability to manage Safe Search for each service by using the new safe_search property (#1163).

Changed

  • ARPA domain names containing a subnet within private networks now also considered private, behaving closer to RFC 6761 (#5567).

Configuration changes

In this release, the schema version has changed from 17 to 20.

  • Property statistics.interval, which in schema versions 19 and earlier used to be an integer number of days, is now a string with a human-readable duration:

    # BEFORE:
    'statistics':
      # …
      'interval': 1
    
    # AFTER:
    'statistics':
      # …
      'interval': '24h'
    

    To rollback this change, convert the property back into days and change the schema_version back to 19.

  • The dns.safesearch_enabled property has been replaced with safe_search object containing per-service settings.

  • The clients.persistent.safesearch_enabled property has been replaced with safe_search object containing per-service settings.

      # BEFORE:
      'safesearch_enabled': true
    
      # AFTER:
      'safe_search':
        'enabled': true
        'bing': true

Deprecated

  • The POST /control/safesearch/enable HTTP API is deprecated. Use the new PUT /control/safesearch/settings API.

  • The POST /control/safesearch/disable HTTP API is deprecated. Use the new PUT /control/safesearch/settings API

  • The safesearch_enabled property is deprecated in the following HTTP APIs:

    • GET /control/clients;
    • POST /control/clients/add;
    • POST /control/clients/update;
    • GET /control/clients/find?ip0=...&ip1=...&ip2=....

    Check openapi/openapi.yaml for more details.

  • The GET /control/stats_info HTTP API; use the new GET /control/stats/config API instead.

    NOTE: If interval is custom then it will be equal to 90 days for compatibility reasons. See openapi/openapi.yaml and openapi/CHANGELOG.md.

  • The POST /control/stats_config HTTP API; use the new PUT /control/stats/config/update API instead.

  • The GET /control/querylog_info HTTP API; use the new GET /control/querylog/config API instead.

    NOTE: If interval is custom then it will be equal to 90 days for compatibility reasons. See openapi/openapi.yaml and openapi/CHANGELOG.md.

  • The ability to use dnstype rules in the disallowed domains list (#5468). This allows dropping requests based on their question types.

Changed

Configuration changes

  • Property edns_client_subnet, which in schema versions 16 and earlier used to be a part of the dns object, is now part of the dns.edns_client_subnet object:

    # BEFORE:
    'dns':
      # …
      'edns_client_subnet': false
    
    # AFTER:
    'dns':
      # …
      'edns_client_subnet':
        'enabled': false
        'use_custom': false
        'custom_ip': ''
    

    To rollback this change, move the value of dns.edns_client_subnet.enabled into the dns.edns_client_subnet, remove the properties dns.edns_client_subnet.enabled, dns.edns_client_subnet.use_custom, dns.edns_client_subnet.custom_ip, and change the schema_version back to 16.

Fixed

  • Obsolete value of the Interface MTU DHCP option is now omitted (#5281).

  • Various dark theme bugs (#5439, #5441, #5442, #5515).

  • Automatic update on MIPS64 and little-endian 32-bit MIPS architectures (#5270, #5373).

  • Requirements to domain names in domain-specific upstream configurations have been relaxed to meet those from RFC 3696 (#4884).

See also the v0.107.25 GitHub milestone.

Fixed

  • Panic when using unencrypted DNS-over-HTTPS (#5518).

v0.107.24 - 2023-02-15

See also the v0.107.24 GitHub milestone.

Security

  • Go version has been updated, both because Go 1.18 has reached end of life an to prevent the possibility of exploiting the Go vulnerabilities fixed in Go 1.19.6.

Added

  • The ability to disable statistics by using the new statistics.enabled property. Previously it was necessary to set the statistics_interval to 0, losing the previous value (#1717, #4299).

  • The ability to exclude domain names from the query log or statistics by using the new querylog.ignored or statistics.ignored properties (#1717, #4299). The UI changes are coming in the upcoming releases.

Changed

Configuration changes

In this release, the schema version has changed from 14 to 16.

  • Property statistics_interval, which in schema versions 15 and earlier used to be a part of the dns object, is now a part of the statistics object:

    # BEFORE:

  • The properties dns.querylog_enabled, dns.querylog_file_enabled, dns.querylog_interval, and dns.querylog_size_memory have been moved to the new querylog object.

    # BEFORE:
    'dns':
      'querylog_enabled': true
      'querylog_file_enabled': true
      'querylog_interval': '2160h'
      'querylog_size_memory': 1000

    To rollback this change, rename and move properties back into the dns object, remove querylog object and querylog.ignored property, and change the schema_version back to 14.

Deprecated

  • Go 1.19 support. Future versions will require at least Go 1.20 to build.

Removed

  • Go 1.18 support, as it has reached end of life.

v0.107.23 - 2023-02-01

See also the v0.107.23 GitHub milestone.

Added

  • DNS64 support (#5117). The function may be enabled with new use_dns64 property under dns object in the configuration along with dns64_prefixes, the set of exclusion prefixes to filter AAAA responses. The Well-Known Prefix (64:ff9b::/96) is used if no custom prefixes are specified.

Fixed

  • Filtering rules with * as the hostname not working properly (#5245).

  • Various dark theme bugs (#5375).

Removed

  • The “beta frontend” and the corresponding APIs. They never quite worked properly, and the future new version of AdGuard Home API will probably be different.

    Correspondingly, the configuration parameter beta_bind_port has been removed as well.

v0.107.22 - 2023-01-19

See also the v0.107.22 GitHub milestone.

Added

  • Experimental Dark UI theme (#613).

  • The new HTTP API PUT /control/profile/update, that updates current user language and UI theme. The format of request body is described in openapi/openapi.yaml.

  • The --update flag performing an update even when there is no version change.

  • Failing HTTPS redirection on saving the encryption settings (#4898).

  • Zeroing rules counter of erroneously edited filtering rule lists (#5290).

  • Filters updating strategy, which could sometimes lead to use of broken or incompletely downloaded lists (#5258).

v0.107.21 - 2022-12-15

See also the v0.107.21 GitHub milestone.

Changed

  • The URLs of the default filters for new installations are synchronized to those introduced in v0.107.20 (#5238).

    NOTE: Some users may need to re-add the lists from the vetted filter lists to update the URLs to the new ones. Custom filters added by users themselves do not require re-adding.

Fixed

  • Errors popping up during updates of settings, which could sometimes cause the server to stop responding (#5251).

v0.107.20 - 2022-12-07

See also the v0.107.20 GitHub milestone.

Security

  • Go version has been updated to prevent the possibility of exploiting the CVE-2022-41717 and CVE-2022-41720 Go vulnerabilities fixed in Go 1.18.9.

Fixed

  • Wrong validation error messages on the DHCP configuration page (#5208).

  • Slow upstream checks making the API unresponsive (#5193).

  • The TLS initialization errors preventing AdGuard Home from starting (#5189). Instead, AdGuard Home disables encryption and shows an error message on the encryption settings page in the UI, which was the intended previous behavior.

  • URLs of some vetted blocklists.

v0.107.19 - 2022-11-23

See also the v0.107.19 GitHub milestone.

See also the v0.107.17 GitHub milestone.

Security

  • Go version has been updated to prevent the possibility of exploiting the CVE-2022-41716 Go vulnerability fixed in Go 1.18.8.

Added

  • The warning message when adding a certificate having no IP addresses (#4898).

  • Several new blockable services (#3972). Those will now be more in sync with the services that are already blockable in AdGuard DNS.

  • A new HTTP API, GET /control/blocked_services/all, that lists all available blocked services and their data, such as SVG icons (#3972).

  • The new optional tls.override_tls_ciphers property, which allows overriding TLS ciphers used by AdGuard Home (#4925, #4990).

  • The ability to serve DNS on link-local IPv6 addresses (#2926).

  • The ability to put ClientIDs into DNS-over-HTTPS hostnames as opposed to URL paths (#3418). Note that AdGuard Home checks the server name only if the URL does not contain a ClientID.

Changed

  • DNS-over-TLS resolvers arent returned anymore when the configured TLS certificate contains no IP addresses (#4927).

  • Responses with SERVFAIL code are now cached for at least 30 seconds.

Deprecated

  • The GET /control/blocked_services/services HTTP API; use the new GET /control/blocked_services/all API instead (#3972).

Fixed

  • ClientIDs not working when using DNS-over-HTTPS with HTTP/3.

  • Editing the URL of an enabled rule list also includes validation of the filter contents preventing from saving a bad one (#4916).

  • The default value of dns.cache_size accidentally set to 0 has now been reverted to 4 MiB (#5010).

  • Responses for which the DNSSEC validation had explicitly been omitted arent cached now (#4942).

  • Web UI not switching to HTTP/3 (#4986, #4993).

v0.107.16 - 2022-10-07

This is a security update. There is no GitHub milestone, since no GitHub issues were resolved.

Security

  • Go version has been updated to prevent the possibility of exploiting the CVE-2022-2879, CVE-2022-2880, and CVE-2022-41715 Go vulnerabilities fixed in Go 1.18.7.

v0.107.15 - 2022-10-03

See also the v0.107.15 GitHub milestone.

Security

  • As an additional CSRF protection measure, AdGuard Home now ensures that requests that change its state but have no body (such as POST /control/stats_reset requests) do not have a Content-Type header set on them (#4970).

Added

Experimental HTTP/3 Support

See #3955 and the related issues for more details. These features are still experimental and may break or change in the future.

  • DNS-over-HTTP/3 DNS and web UI client request support. This feature must be explicitly enabled by setting the new property dns.serve_http3 in the configuration file to true.

  • DNS-over-HTTP upstreams can now upgrade to HTTP/3 if the new configuration file property dns.use_http3_upstreams is set to true.

  • Upstreams with forced DNS-over-HTTP/3 and no fallback to prior HTTP versions using the h3:// scheme.

Fixed

  • User-specific blocked services not applying correctly (#4945, #4982, #4983).
  • only application/json is allowed errors in various APIs (#4970).

v0.107.14 - 2022-09-29

See also the v0.107.14 GitHub milestone.

Security

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability has been discovered. We thank Daniel Elkabes from Mend.io for reporting this vulnerability to us. This is CVE-2022-32175.

SameSite Policy

The SameSite policy on the AdGuard Home session cookies is now set to Lax. Which means that the only cross-site HTTP request for which the browser is allowed to send the session cookie is navigating to the AdGuard Home domain.

Users are strongly advised to log out, clear browser cache, and log in again after updating.

Removal Of Plain-Text APIs (BREAKING API CHANGE)

We have implemented several measures to prevent such vulnerabilities in the future, but some of these measures break backwards compatibility for the sake of better protection.

The following APIs, which previously accepted or returned text/plain data, now accept or return data as JSON. All new formats for the request and response bodies are documented in openapi/openapi.yaml and openapi/CHANGELOG.md.

  • GET /control/i18n/current_language;
  • POST /control/dhcp/find_active_dhcp;
  • POST /control/filtering/set_rules;
  • POST /control/i18n/change_language.

Stricter Content-Type Checks (BREAKING API CHANGE)

All JSON APIs that expect a body now check if the request actually has Content-Type set to application/json.

Other Security Changes

  • Weaker cipher suites that use the CBC (cipher block chaining) mode of operation have been disabled (#2993).

Added

  • Support for plain (unencrypted) HTTP/2 (#4930). This is useful for AdGuard Home installations behind a reverse proxy.

Fixed

  • Incorrect path template in DDR responses (#4927).

v0.107.13 - 2022-09-14

See also the v0.107.13 GitHub milestone.

Added

  • The new optional dns.ipset_file property, which can be set in the configuration file. It allows loading the ipset list from a file, just like dns.upstream_dns_file does for upstream servers (#4686).

Changed

  • The minimum DHCP message size is reassigned back to BOOTPs constraint of 300 bytes (#4904).

Fixed

  • Panic when adding a static lease within the disabled DHCP server (#4722).

v0.107.12 - 2022-09-07

See also the v0.107.12 GitHub milestone.

Security

  • Go version has been updated to prevent the possibility of exploiting the CVE-2022-27664 and CVE-2022-32190 Go vulnerabilities fixed in Go 1.18.6.

Added

  • New bool, dur, u8, and u16 DHCP options to provide more convenience on options control by setting values in a human-readable format (#4705). See also a Wiki page.

  • New del DHCP option which removes the corresponding option from servers response (#4337). See also a Wiki page.

    NOTE: This modifier affects all the parameters in the response and not only the requested ones.

See also the v0.107.7 GitHub milestone.

Security

Added

  • EDNS Client-Subnet information in the request details section of a query log record (#3978).

  • Support for hostnames for plain UDP upstream servers using the udp:// scheme (#4166).

  • Logs are now collected by default on FreeBSD and OpenBSD when AdGuard Home is installed as a service (#4213).

Changed

  • On OpenBSD, the daemon script now uses the recommended /bin/ksh shell instead of the /bin/sh one (#4533). To apply this change, backup your data and run AdGuardHome -s uninstall && AdGuardHome -s install.

  • The default DNS-over-QUIC port number is now 853 instead of 754 in accordance with RFC 9250 (#4276).

  • Reverse DNS now has a greater priority as the source of runtime clients information than ARP neighborhood.

    NOTE: If you already have invalid entries in your configuration, consider removing them manually, since they essentially had no effect.

  • Response filtering is now performed using the record types of the answer section of messages as opposed to the type of the question (#4238).

  • Instead of adding the build time information, the build scripts now use the standardized environment variable SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to add the date of the commit from which the binary was built (#4221). This should simplify reproducible builds for package maintainers and those who compile their own AdGuard Home.

  • The property local_domain_name is now in the dhcp object in the configuration file to avoid confusion (#3367).

  • The dns.bogus_nxdomain property in the configuration file now supports CIDR notation alongside IP addresses (#1730).

Configuration changes

In this release, the schema version has changed from 12 to 14.

  • Object clients, which in schema versions 13 and earlier was an array of actual persistent clients, is now consist of persistent and runtime_sources properties:

    # BEFORE:
    'clients':
    - name: client-name
      # …
    
    # AFTER:
    'clients':
      'persistent':
        - name: client-name
          # …
      'runtime_sources':
        whois: true
        arp: true
        rdns: true
        dhcp: true
        hosts: true
    

    The value for clients.runtime_sources.rdns property is taken from dns.resolve_clients property. To rollback this change, remove the runtime_sources property, move the contents of persistent into the clients itself, the value of clients.runtime_sources.rdns into the dns.resolve_clients, and change the schema_version back to 13.

  • Property local_domain_name, which in schema versions 12 and earlier used to be a part of the dns object, is now a part of the dhcp object:

    # BEFORE:
    'dns':
      # …
      'local_domain_name': 'lan'
    
    # AFTER:
    'dhcp':
      # …
      'local_domain_name': 'lan'
    

    To rollback this change, move the property back into the dns object and change the schema_version back to 12.

Deprecated

  • The --no-etc-hosts option. Its functionality is now controlled by clients.runtime_sources.hosts configuration property. v0.109.0 will remove the flag completely.

Fixed

  • Query log occasionally going into an infinite loop (#4591).

  • Service startup on boot on systems using SysV-init (#4480).

  • Detection of the stopped service status on macOS and Linux (#4273).

Added

  • Support for SVCB/HTTPS parameter dohpath in filtering rules with the dnsrewrite modifier according to the RFC draft (#4463).

Changed

  • Filtering rules with the dnsrewrite modifier that create SVCB or HTTPS responses should use ech instead of echconfig to conform with the latest drafts.

Deprecated

  • SVCB/HTTPS parameter name echconfig in filtering rules with the dnsrewrite modifier. Use ech instead. v0.109.0 will remove support for the outdated name echconfig.
