nginx-1.31.2-59.el7.gps.x86_64	1016 KiB	Danila Vershinin (2026-06-16) - gps_license: bump to 1.4.0. New identity probe endpoint: send · Accept: application/vnd.getpagespeed.nginx-probe+json on any URL to · receive a 200 + JSON identifying the install (module version, nginx · version, package_source, current status/enforcement, distro, arch). · Doubles as a fleet-inventory + compliance-audit handle. Probe path is · not access-logged, emits no error_log lines, and is invisible on · non-probe requests. Runs at PREACCESS so it answers regardless of · enforcement state.
nginx-1.31.1-59.el7.gps.x86_64	1015 KiB	Danila Vershinin (2026-06-16) - gps_license: bump to 1.4.0. New identity probe endpoint: send · Accept: application/vnd.getpagespeed.nginx-probe+json on any URL to · receive a 200 + JSON identifying the install (module version, nginx · version, package_source, current status/enforcement, distro, arch). · Doubles as a fleet-inventory + compliance-audit handle.

nginx-1.31.1-58.el7.gps.x86_64	1013 KiB	Danila Vershinin (2026-06-11) - gps_license: bump to 1.3.0. New FOOTER enforcement tier: when the · backend pushes enforcement=footer (or it is set locally), unlicensed · text/html responses get a small fixed-position GetPageSpeed notice · appended; the site stays fully up and the notice disappears once a · valid license token is installed. Default enforcement remains soft; · hard/503 stays reserved for revoked tokens. Filter registers in the · AUX slot so it runs before gzip.
nginx-1.31.1-57.el7.gps.x86_64	1012 KiB	Danila Vershinin (2026-05-31) - gps_license: bump to 1.2.0. Operator-facing 503s now point at · /nginx-license-token/ on getpagespeed.com (revoked / missing / · expired / invalid / unknown) and the 503 body is a centered nginx-style · HTML page with a "Restore access" button. The bare URL keeps serving · the generic page so older module versions still work.

nginx-1.31.1-55.el7.gps.x86_64	1011 KiB	Danila Vershinin (2026-05-25) - Recall the 2026-04-22 nginx-mod leak: Obsoletes nginx-mod = 3:1.30.0-44 so · hosts that were silently swapped to that exact build during the main-channel · slip self-heal back to stock nginx on `dnf upgrade`. Scoped to the one leaked · NVR (no-op otherwise); no matching Provides (would trip the module Conflicts).
nginx-1.31.1-54.el7.gps.x86_64	1011 KiB	Danila Vershinin (2026-05-18) - Bundle nginx-gps SELinux policy: allow outbound HTTPS from httpd_t · (license reporting + future integrations) and bind UDP 443 for HTTP/3. · Paired with `semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p udp 443` in %post for · EL <= 9 where the UDP label is missing.
