There's no changelog. However these features were removed:

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/halflife/issues/2108

There were security concerns because of the ongoing CS 1.6 Zero Days attack.

They fixed it now when the problem got huge and it even reached the news. I mean I'm very happy that it's finally fixed and that I can safely play on any server now, but that bug has been reported many times in the past couple years on GitHub.

Are we actually sure people won't find a bypass like they did before? I would be surprised if Valve got their shit together and implemented a proper fix this time.

Basically they ruined many plugins with that fix.

I think plugins with messagemode command will not work any more.
This is what I heard so far.

This nerd took the time to develop a Trojan for a fricking virtual game that is over 18 years old, wow, he must really be fun at parties.

EDIT: After some researching it seems this dumba$$ is from a place called Petergof, St Petersburg (Russia).

Why does that even matter? It's not like we're going to organize a terrorist attack against him.

I don't know why you would even mention terrorism in this case but okay, I'll let that slide.
You do realize what he did is illegal, and maybe someone can expose him? No snitch but he deserves it if he's getting exposed and gets the cops on him.
