+## [1.3.0] - 2026-09-30
+
+Version 1.3.0 follows version 1.2.2, and no version stands between them. The date of the
+heading above is the date this release reaches `master`. It carries rounds 268 and 269.
+
+**The bump is minor and never patch.** This release adds published names: the
+`ja4plus.scan` package, the `ja4plus scan` subcommand and the `scan` extra. It removes no
+name and it renames none.
+
+**JA4 reads a ClientHello that spans TCP segments** (#772). A post-quantum key share makes
+a current browser ClientHello longer than one TCP segment, and the fingerprinter read each
+segment alone, so it wrote no JA4 value for such a hello. **A caller now receives a JA4
+value for that traffic where it received none before.** The fingerprinter holds the client
+payload of a connection in a bounded table until the hello is complete, and a gap stops
+the read at the first byte that has not arrived.
+
+**Two readers now write the FoxIO value.**
+
+| Method | Input | Version 1.2.2 | Version 1.3.0 | Issue |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| JA4 | A ClientHello with a GREASE value among its signature algorithms | Hashes the GREASE value | Removes it, as FoxIO `d66336ef` does | #773 |
+| JA4T, JA4TS | A SYN or SYN-ACK with a repeated MSS option or window scale option | Keeps the first value | Keeps the last value, as the FoxIO Rust, Wireshark and Zeek sources do | #774 |
+
+**No value of the committed corpus moves.** A replay of 77 captures writes one new value,
+the JA4 of `sigalg-grease.pcapng` frame 5, which equals the FoxIO value. Every other value
+is byte-identical. No committed capture carries a repeated TCP option or a signature
+algorithm GREASE value.
+
+**`ja4plus scan` adds JA4TScan, the FoxIO active TCP server fingerprint** (#775, #776). The
+scanner sends one SYN to each IPv4 target and reads the SYN-ACK and its retransmissions.
+**It is the one part of the package that sends packets**, so it lives behind the `scan`
+extra and no passive module imports it. **The library changes no firewall state**, and
+the command prints the rules the operator adds. `docs/specs/features/12-active-scan.md`
+states the requirements. The project now implements all twelve FoxIO methods.
+
+**The FoxIO pin moves from `27f0cbf9` to `16b96d95`**, and `sigalg-grease.pcapng` joins the
+vectors. The conformance suite reports 1684 passed, 142 skipped and 138 xfailed at version

+
+### ja4plus.scan.value
+
+| Class/Function | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `Response(seconds, flags, window, options)` | The four fields of one TCP response that the value reads |
+| `ja4tscan_value(responses)` | Return the JA4TScan value of one target, or `None` when it sent no response |
+| `RST_ACK_VALUE` | The value `0_rst-ack`, which a target whose first response carries RST produces |
+
+### ja4plus.scan.frames
+
+| Class/Function | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `build_syn(*, src_mac, dst_mac, src_ip, dst_ip, src_port, dst_port, sequence, timestamp)` | Return the Ethernet frame of one FoxIO SYN, 74 bytes |
+| `parse_frame(frame)` | Return the TCP fields of one received Ethernet frame, or `None` for a frame it cannot read |
+| `Reply` | The TCP fields of one received segment that the scanner reads |
+
+### ja4plus.scan.scanner
+
+| Class/Function | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `Scanner(*, port, rate, retransmit, send, receive, clock, on_result, on_warning, rng)` | The scan loop. `run(targets)` sends one SYN to each target and waits for its responses |
+| `ScanResult` | The value of one target and the endpoints of its responses |
+| `parse_targets(text)` | Return the IPv4 targets that one address, one network or one file names |
+| `TargetError` | The error `parse_targets` raises for a target the scanner cannot read |
+| `firewall_rules(platform)` | Return the firewall rules the operator adds before a scan |
+| `MAX_TARGETS` | The largest target count the state table holds, 10000 |
+| `RETRANSMIT_WAIT_SECONDS` | The wait for later responses after each SYN, 120 seconds |
+| `NO_RETRANSMIT_WAIT_SECONDS` | The wait under `--retransmit no`, 8 seconds |
+
+### ja4plus.scan.command
+
+| Class/Function | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `run(args, result_stream)` | Run the scan on the network of this host. The `ja4plus.commands` entry point names it |
+| `scan_command(args, *, result_stream, platform, open_network, clock, rng)` | Run the scan over the network that `open_network` returns |
+| `METHOD_TYPE` | The `type` value of a scan output line, `ja4tscan` |
+
+### ja4plus.scan.link
+
+| Class/Function | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `LinkNetwork(port, first_target, on_warning)` | The link-layer socket that sends each SYN and reads each response. It needs the privilege to open a raw socket |
+| `privilege_refused(error)` | Return `True` when the error states that the host refused that privilege |
