-c-ares version 1.18.1
-
-This is an urgent bugfix release for a regression made in 1.18.0.

-Bug fixes:
- o ares_getaddrinfo() would return ai_addrlen of 16 for ipv6
-   adddresses rather than the sizeof(struct sockaddr_in6)

-c-ares version 1.18.0
+c-ares version 1.19.0
 
 This is a feature and bugfix release.  It addresses a couple of new feature
 requests as well as a couple of bug fixes.
 
+Security:
+ o Low. Stack overflow in ares_set_sortlist() which is used during c-ares
+   initialization and typically provided by an administrator and not an
+   end user. [24]
+
 Changes:
- o Add support for URI(Uniform Resource Identifier) records via
-   ares_parse_uri_reply() [1]
- o Provide ares_nameser.h as a public interface as needed by NodeJS [5]
- o Update URLs from c-ares.haxx.se to c-ares.org [9]
- o During a domain search, treat ARES_ENODATA as ARES_NXDOMAIN so that the
-   search process will continue to the next domain in the search.  [11]
- o Turn ares_gethostbyname() into a wrapper for ares_getaddrinfo() as they
-   followed very similar code paths and ares_gethostbyaddr() has some more
-   desirable features such as priority sorting and parallel queries for
-   AF_UNSPEC. [12]
- o ares_getaddrinfo() now contains a name element in the address info
-   structure as the last element.  This is not an API or ABI break due to
-   the structure always being internally allocated and it being the last
-   element. [12]
- o ares_parse_a_reply() and ares_parse_aaaa_reply() were nearly identical, those
-   now use the same helper functions for parsing rather than having their own
-   code. [12]
- o RFC6761 Section 6.3 says "localhost" lookups need to be special cased to
-   return loopback addresses, and not forward queries to recursive dns servers.
-   On Windows this now returns all loopback addresses, on other systems it
-   returns 127.0.0.1 or ::1 always, and will never forward a request for
-   "localhost" to outside DNS servers. [13]
- o Haiki: port [14]
+ o Windows: Drop support for XP and derivatives which greatly cleans up
+   initialization code. [3]
+ o Add ARES_OPT_HOSTS_FILE similar to ARES_OPT_RESOLVCONF for specifying a
+   custom hosts file location. [10]
+ o Add vcpkg installation instructions [13]
 
 Bug fixes:
- o add build to .gitignore [2]
- o z/OS minor update, add missing semicolon in ares_init.c [3]
- o Fix building when latest ax_code_coverage.m4 is imported [4]
- o Work around autotools 'error: too many loops' and other newer autotools
-   import related bugs.
- o MinGW cross builds need advapi32 link as lower case [6]
- o Cygwin build fix due to containing both socket.h and winsock2.h [7]
- o ares_expand_name should allow underscores (_) as SRV records legitimately use
-   them [8]
- o Allow '/' as a valid character for a returned name for CNAME in-addr.arpa
-   delegation [10]
- o ares_getaddrinfo() was not honoring HOSTALIASES [12]
- o ares_getaddrinfo() had some test cases disabled due to a bug in the test
-   framework itself which has now been resolved [12]
- o Due to Travis-CI becoming unfriendly to open-source, Cirrus-CI has now been
-   brought online for automated unit testing.
+ o Fix cross-compilation from Windows to Linux due to CPACK logic. [1]
+ o Fix memory leak in reading /etc/hosts when using localhost fallback. [2]
+ o Fix chain building c-ares when libresolv is already included by another
+   project [4]
+ o File lookup should not immediately abort as there may be other tries due to
+   search criteria.
+ o Asterisks should be allowed in host validation as CNAMEs may reference
+   wildcard domains [5]
+ o AutoTools build system referenced bad STDC_HEADERS macro [6]
+ o Even if one address class returns a failure for ares_getaddrinfo() we should
+   still return the results we have
+ o CMake Windows: DLLs did not include resource file to include versions [7] [8]
+ o CMake: Guard target creation in exported config [9]
+ o Fix ares_getaddrinfo() numerical address resolution with AF_UNSPEC [11]
+ o Apple: fix libresolv configured query times. [12]
+ o Fix tools and help information [14] [15]
+ o Various documentation fixes and cleanups [16] [22] [25]
+ o Add include guards to ares_data.h [17]
+ o c-ares could try to exceed maximum number of iovec entries supported by
+   system [18]
+ o CMake package config generation allow for absolute install paths [19]
+ o Intel compiler fixes [20]
+ o ares_strsplit bugs [21] [23]
+ o The RFC6761 6.3 states localhost subdomains must be offline too. [26]
