Update Information:

Changes with nginx 1.26.3 05 Feb 2025 *) Security: insufficient check in virtual servers handling with TLSv1.3 SNI allowed to reuse SSL sessions in a different virtual server, to bypass client SSL certificates verification (CVE-2025-23419). *) Bugfix: in the ngx_http_mp4_module. Thanks to Nils Bars. *) Workaround: "gzip filter failed to use preallocated memory" alerts appeared in logs when using zlib-ng. *) Bugfix: nginx could not build libatomic library using the library sources if the --with-libatomic=DIR option was used. *) Bugfix: nginx now ignores QUIC version negotiation packets from clients. *) Bugfix: nginx could not be built on Solaris 10 and earlier with the ngx_http_v3_module. *) Bugfixes in HTTP/3.
