Nginx 1.8.1 has been released on January 26th 2016, to fix three security issues in its resolver.

As a consequence, packages of Nginx 1.8.1 are now available :

  • for Debian 8 “Jessie”, Debian 7 “Wheezy” and Debian 6 “Squeeze”
  • On both amd64 and i386 architectures.

Please also note that ngx_pagespeed has been updated to :

  • version 1.10.33.2 on Jessie
  • only version 1.9.32.11 on Wheezy and Squeeze, because the 1.10 branch now requires GCC 4.8+. Usage of ngx_pagespeed on Wheezy and Squeeze has been kept for compatibility purpose but is highly discouraged. Upgrade to Jessie instead.

For more details about which modules are included in the different Nginx flavors, just have to look at this document.
