This file documents the major additions and syntax changes between releases.
+3.0.3 7th August 2026
+ Codename: Gabriele Tergit
+
+ This release fixes another security problem which allowed a local
+ privilege escalation if an administrator modified the sudoers
+ rules to get check_mailq to work.
+ Since sudo is not strictly necessary (the MTAs allow access to mail
+ queue information via users/groups), the option to use sudo was
+ disabled in check_mailq.
+
+ FIXES:
+ * check_smtp:
+ * Trying to use authentication resulted in an UNKNOWN state
+ if the authentication succeeded. It returns OK again now.
+ * The port logic in SMTP was a bit broken. When the order
+ of cli parameters was wrong, the wrong port was used for
+ either direct TLS or STARTTLS when using the certificate
+ lifetime option (-D). The default port is now directly
+ taken from --ssl/--starttls and one of these has to be
+ selected explicitly.
+ * check_swap
+ * On FreeBSD information about swap usage was not detected
+ correctly (it was assumed that swap was disabled).
+ It should work now as expected again.
+ * check_snmp:
+ * On Gentoo builds would fail to due a certain net-snmp
+ configuration. This should be fixed and check_snmp
+ offers the options which net-snmp on that system has
+ * SNMPv3 authentication and privacy was broken since 3.0.0
+ This should be fixed now.
+ * check_ups
+ * Since 3.0.0 there were some new bugs which reduced the utility
+ significantly. Those were fixed.
+
