133: client experimential support for resuming SSH-connections (roaming).
134: In the default configuration, this could potentially leak client keys
135: to a hostile server. The authentication of the server host key
136: prevents exploitation by a man-in-the-middle, so this information leak
137: is restricted to connections to malicious or compromised servers.
138: This feature has been disabled in the
139: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
140: client, and it has been removed from the source tree. The matching
141: server code has never been shipped.

143: OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in
144: <tt>PermitRootLogin=prohibit-password/without-password</tt> that could,
145: depending on compile-time configuration, permit password authentication
146: to root while preventing other forms of authentication.
147: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
148: <li>Eliminate the fallback from untrusted X11-forwarding to trusted
149: forwarding for cases when the X server disables the <tt>SECURITY</tt>
150: extension.
151: <li>Fix an out of-bound read access in the packet handling code.
152: <li>Further use of explicit_bzero has been added in various buffer
153: handling code paths to guard against compilers aggressively doing
154: dead-store removal.

1.1 deraadt 175: <ul>
176: <li>User-visible features:
177: <ul>
1.17 ! sobrado 178: <li>This release corrects the handling of <tt>ClientHello</tt> messages
! 179: that do not include TLS extensions, resulting in such handshakes being
! 180: aborted.
! 181: <li>When loading a DSA key from an raw (without DH parameters) ASN.1
! 182: serialization, perform some consistency checks on its `p' and `q'
! 183: values, and return an error if the checks failed.
! 184: <li>Fixed a bug in <tt>ECDH_compute_key</tt> that can lead to silent
! 185: truncation of the result key without error. A coding error could cause
! 186: software to use much shorter keys than intended.
! 187: <li>Removed support for <tt>DTLS_BAD_VER</tt>. Pre-DTLSv1 implementations
! 188: are no longer supported.
! 189: <li>The engine command and parameters are removed from
! 190: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=openssl&sektion=1">openssl(1)</a>.
! 191: Previous releases removed dynamic and builtin engine support already.
! 192: <li>SHA-0 is removed, which was withdrawn shortly after publication
! 193: twenty years ago.
! 194: <li>Added <tt>Certplus CA</tt> root certificate to the default
! 195: <tt>cert.pem</tt> file.
! 196: <li>Fixed a leak in <tt>SSL_new</tt> in the error path.
! 197: <li>Fixed a memory leak and out-of-bounds access in <tt>OBJ_obj2txt</tt>.
! 198: <li>Fixed an up-to 7 byte overflow in RC4 when len is not a multiple of
! 199: <tt>sizeof(RC4_CHUNK)</tt>.
! 200: <li>Added <tt>EVP_aead_chacha20_poly1305_ietf()</tt> which matches the
! 201: AEAD construction introduced in RFC 7539, which is different than that
! 202: already used in TLS with <tt>EVP_aead_chacha20_poly1305()</tt>.
! 203: <li>More man pages converted from pod to mdoc format.
! 204: <li>Added <tt>COMODO RSA Certification Authority</tt> and
! 205: <tt>QuoVadis</tt> root certificates to <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
! 206: <li>Removed Remhve "<tt>C=US, O=VeriSign, Inc., OU=Class 3 Public Primary
! 207: Certification Authority</tt>"
! 208: (serial 3c:91:31:cb:1f:f6:d0:1b:0e:9a:b8:d0:44:bf:12:be)
! 209: root certificate from <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
! 210: <li>Fixed incorrect TLS certificate loading by
! 211: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>.
! 212: <li>The following CVEs had been fixed:
! 213: <ul>
! 214: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3194</tt>—NULL pointer dereference in client
! 215: side certificate validation.
! 216: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3195</tt>—memory leak in PKCS7, not reachable
! 217: from TLS/SSL.
! 218: </ul>
! 219: <li>Note: The following OpenSSL CVEs did not apply to LibreSSL:
! 220: <ul>
! 221: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3193</tt>—carry propagating bug in the x86_64
! 222: Montgomery squaring procedure.
! 223: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3196</tt>—double free race condition of the
! 224: identify hint data.
! 225: </ul>
1.1 deraadt 226: </ul>
227: <li>Code improvements:
228: <ul>
1.17 ! sobrado 229: <li>Added install target for <tt>cmake</tt> builds.
! 230: <li>Updated <tt>pkgconfig</tt> files to correctly report the release
! 231: version number, not the individual library ABI version numbers.
! 232: <li>SSLv3 is now permanently removed from the tree.
! 233: <li>The <tt>libtls</tt> API is changed from the 2.2.x series:
! 234: <ul>
! 235: <li>The tls_read/write functions now work better with external event
! 236: libraries.
! 237: <li>Client-side verification is now supported, with the client
! 238: supplying the certificate to the server.
! 239: <li>Also, when using <tt>tls_connect_fds</tt>,
! 240: <tt>tls_connect_socket</tt> or <tt>tls_accept_fds</tt>,
! 241: <tt>libtls</tt> no longer implicitly closes the passed in sockets.
! 242: The caller is responsible for closing them in this case.
! 243: </ul>
! 244: <li>New interface <tt>OPENSSL_cpu_caps</tt> is provided that does not
! 245: allow software to inadvertently modify cpu capability flags.
! 246: <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap</tt> and <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap_loc</tt> are removed.
! 247: <li>The <tt>out_len</tt> argument of AEAD changed from <tt>ssize_t</tt>
! 248: to <tt>size_t</tt>.
! 249: <li>Deduplicated DTLS code, sharing bugfixes and improvements with TLS.
! 250: <li>Converted
! 251: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>
! 252: to use <tt>libtls</tt> for client and server operations; it is
! 253: included in the libressl-portable distribution as an example of how
! 254: to use the <tt>libtls</tt> library. This is intended to be a simpler
! 255: and more robust replacement for <tt>openssl s_client</tt> and
! 256: <tt>openssl s_server</tt> for day-to-day operations.
! 257: <li>ASN.1 cleanups and RFC5280 compliance fixes.
! 258: <li>Time representations switched from <tt>unsigned long</tt> to
! 259: <tt>time_t</tt>. LibreSSL now checks if the host OS supports 64-bit
! 260: <tt>time_t</tt>.
! 261: <li>Support always extracting the peer cipher and version with
! 262: <tt>libtls</tt>.
! 263: <li>Added ability to check certificate validity times with
! 264: <tt>libtls</tt>, <tt>tls_peer_cert_notbefore</tt> and
! 265: <tt>tls_peer_cert_notafter</tt>.
! 266: <li>Changed tls_connect_servername to use the first address that
! 267: resolves with getaddrinfo().
! 268: <li>Remove broken conditional <tt>EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY</tt> code
! 269: (non-functional since initial commit in 2004).
! 270: <li>Reject too small bits value in <tt>BN_generate_prime_ex()</tt>,
! 271: so that it does not risk becoming negative in
! 272: <tt>probable_prime_dh_safe()</tt>.
! 273: <li>Changed format of LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER to match that of
! 274: <tt>OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER</tt>.
! 275: <li>Avoid a potential undefined C99+ behavior due to shift overflow in
! 276: <tt>AES_decrypt</tt>.
! 277: <li>Deprecated the <tt>SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE</tt> flag.

664: OpenBSD ports system.
665: <p>
666: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for

670: source tree, our ports tree is available via
671: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
672: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
673: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
674: with a command like:
675: <p>
676: <ul><pre>
677: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>
678: # <strong>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_9</strong>
679: </pre></ul>
680: <p>
681: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
682: server.]
683: <p>
684: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
685: ports for the 5.9 release will be made available if problems arise.
686: <p>
687: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
688: would like to know more, the mailing list
689: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
