132: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
1.18 ! sobrado 133: client experimental support for resuming SSH-connections (roaming).
1.16 sobrado 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.
142: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
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.
1.18 ! sobrado 152: <li>Further use of
! 153: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=bzero&sektion=3">explicit_bzero(3)</a>
! 154: has been added in various buffer handling code paths to guard against

157: <li>The following significant bugs have been fixed in this release:
158: <ul>
1.16 sobrado 159: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,
160: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:

1.16 sobrado 165: <li>Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
166: memory, etc) in
167: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>

174: <p>
1.17 sobrado 175: <li>LibreSSL 2.3.2
1.1 deraadt 176: <ul>
177: <li>User-visible features:
178: <ul>
1.17 sobrado 179: <li>This release corrects the handling of <tt>ClientHello</tt> messages
180: that do not include TLS extensions, resulting in such handshakes being
181: aborted.
182: <li>When loading a DSA key from an raw (without DH parameters) ASN.1
183: serialization, perform some consistency checks on its `p' and `q'
184: values, and return an error if the checks failed.
185: <li>Fixed a bug in <tt>ECDH_compute_key</tt> that can lead to silent
186: truncation of the result key without error. A coding error could cause
187: software to use much shorter keys than intended.
188: <li>Removed support for <tt>DTLS_BAD_VER</tt>. Pre-DTLSv1 implementations
189: are no longer supported.
190: <li>The engine command and parameters are removed from
191: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=openssl&sektion=1">openssl(1)</a>.
192: Previous releases removed dynamic and builtin engine support already.
193: <li>SHA-0 is removed, which was withdrawn shortly after publication
194: twenty years ago.
195: <li>Added <tt>Certplus CA</tt> root certificate to the default
196: <tt>cert.pem</tt> file.
197: <li>Fixed a leak in <tt>SSL_new</tt> in the error path.
198: <li>Fixed a memory leak and out-of-bounds access in <tt>OBJ_obj2txt</tt>.
199: <li>Fixed an up-to 7 byte overflow in RC4 when len is not a multiple of
200: <tt>sizeof(RC4_CHUNK)</tt>.
201: <li>Added <tt>EVP_aead_chacha20_poly1305_ietf()</tt> which matches the
1.18 ! sobrado 202: <tt>AEAD</tt> construction introduced in RFC 7539, which is different
! 203: than that already used in TLS with
! 204: <tt>EVP_aead_chacha20_poly1305()</tt>.
! 205: <li>More man pages converted from pod to
! 206: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=mdoc&sektion=7">mdoc(7)</a>
! 207: format.
1.17 sobrado 208: <li>Added <tt>COMODO RSA Certification Authority</tt> and
209: <tt>QuoVadis</tt> root certificates to <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
210: <li>Removed Remhve "<tt>C=US, O=VeriSign, Inc., OU=Class 3 Public Primary
211: Certification Authority</tt>"
212: (serial 3c:91:31:cb:1f:f6:d0:1b:0e:9a:b8:d0:44:bf:12:be)
213: root certificate from <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
214: <li>Fixed incorrect TLS certificate loading by
215: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>.
216: <li>The following CVEs had been fixed:
217: <ul>
218: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3194</tt>—NULL pointer dereference in client
219: side certificate validation.
220: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3195</tt>—memory leak in PKCS7, not reachable
221: from TLS/SSL.
222: </ul>
223: <li>Note: The following OpenSSL CVEs did not apply to LibreSSL:
224: <ul>
225: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3193</tt>—carry propagating bug in the x86_64
226: Montgomery squaring procedure.
227: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3196</tt>—double free race condition of the
228: identify hint data.
229: </ul>
1.1 deraadt 230: </ul>
231: <li>Code improvements:
232: <ul>
1.17 sobrado 233: <li>Added install target for <tt>cmake</tt> builds.
234: <li>Updated <tt>pkgconfig</tt> files to correctly report the release
235: version number, not the individual library ABI version numbers.
236: <li>SSLv3 is now permanently removed from the tree.
237: <li>The <tt>libtls</tt> API is changed from the 2.2.x series:
238: <ul>
1.18 ! sobrado 239: <li>The <tt>tls_read</tt>/<tt>write</tt> functions now work better
! 240: with external event libraries.
1.17 sobrado 241: <li>Client-side verification is now supported, with the client
242: supplying the certificate to the server.
243: <li>Also, when using <tt>tls_connect_fds</tt>,
244: <tt>tls_connect_socket</tt> or <tt>tls_accept_fds</tt>,
245: <tt>libtls</tt> no longer implicitly closes the passed in sockets.
246: The caller is responsible for closing them in this case.
247: </ul>
248: <li>New interface <tt>OPENSSL_cpu_caps</tt> is provided that does not
249: allow software to inadvertently modify cpu capability flags.
250: <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap</tt> and <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap_loc</tt> are removed.
1.18 ! sobrado 251: <li>The <tt>out_len</tt> argument of <tt>AEAD</tt> changed from
! 252: <tt>ssize_t</tt> to <tt>size_t</tt>.
1.17 sobrado 253: <li>Deduplicated DTLS code, sharing bugfixes and improvements with TLS.
254: <li>Converted
255: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>
256: to use <tt>libtls</tt> for client and server operations; it is
257: included in the libressl-portable distribution as an example of how
258: to use the <tt>libtls</tt> library. This is intended to be a simpler
259: and more robust replacement for <tt>openssl s_client</tt> and
260: <tt>openssl s_server</tt> for day-to-day operations.
261: <li>ASN.1 cleanups and RFC5280 compliance fixes.
262: <li>Time representations switched from <tt>unsigned long</tt> to
263: <tt>time_t</tt>. LibreSSL now checks if the host OS supports 64-bit
264: <tt>time_t</tt>.
265: <li>Support always extracting the peer cipher and version with
266: <tt>libtls</tt>.
267: <li>Added ability to check certificate validity times with
268: <tt>libtls</tt>, <tt>tls_peer_cert_notbefore</tt> and
269: <tt>tls_peer_cert_notafter</tt>.
1.18 ! sobrado 270: <li>Changed <tt>tls_connect_servername</tt> to use the first address that
! 271: resolves with
! 272: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=getaddrinfo&sektion=3">getaddrinfo(3)</a>.
1.17 sobrado 273: <li>Remove broken conditional <tt>EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY</tt> code
274: (non-functional since initial commit in 2004).
275: <li>Reject too small bits value in <tt>BN_generate_prime_ex()</tt>,
276: so that it does not risk becoming negative in
277: <tt>probable_prime_dh_safe()</tt>.
1.18 ! sobrado 278: <li>Changed format of <tt>LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER</tt> to match that of
1.17 sobrado 279: <tt>OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER</tt>.
280: <li>Avoid a potential undefined C99+ behavior due to shift overflow in
281: <tt>AES_decrypt</tt>.
282: <li>Deprecated the <tt>SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE</tt> flag.

669: OpenBSD ports system.
670: <p>
671: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
672: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&sektion=1&arch=i386">

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