We are announcing the release of ModSecurity version 3.0.7.
New Features
PCRE2 is now available as an option in libModSecurity. Initially, this functionality will mostly be of interest to those already wishing to use a version of nginx that both supports PCRE2 and uses it by default. Some notes on version compatibility between ModSecurity, ModSecurity-nginx, and nginx are available at #2719 .
The SecRequestBodyNoFilesLimit configuration directive was already present in modsecurity.conf-recommended but was not functional. The value specified via this directive is now respected by the processing, so users may wish to review the current value of their setting when upgrading to v3.0.7.
Support for the ctl:auditEngine action has been added with functionality comparable to v2: it allows a transaction-level override of the value normally specified by the SecAuditEngine configuration directive.
