since today the download section at sourceforge.net only contains
packages that are not available from the new software repositories
(Ubuntu, Fedora and OpenSuSE). How to get the latest version using
repositories is described at
http://iplist.sourceforge.net/download.html .

The new version in the repositories is labed 0.24-0ubuntu3 and 0.24-21.1

With the binary IPL format it takes significantly less time to load lists. The list can be converted back to p2p format:
$ iplist -O p2p -o outputlist.p2p.gz inputlist.gz

Release Notes https://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?group_id=198679&release_id=571106

There is a security flaw with the default configuration. ALLOW_LIST is
set to allow.p2p which accept incoming and outgoing connections from
private IP address ranges as destination addresses:

# Private IP addresses
IANA Private : 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
IANA Private : 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
IANA Private : 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255

So everyone could connect (in the INPUT chain) if you have such an IP
address. It's best to remove allow.p2p from the ALLOW_LIST option. This will be changed in the next version.
