1.1 deraadt 128: <ul>
129: <li>Security:
130: <ul>
1.16 sobrado 131: <li>Qualys Security identified vulnerabilities in the
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
155: compilers aggressively doing dead-store removal.
1.1 deraadt 156: </ul>
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>:
1.18 sobrado 161: add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.

163: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
1.18 sobrado 164: refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
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>
168: and
169: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh-keygen&sektion=1">ssh-keygen(1)</a>.
1.18 sobrado 170: <li>Correctly interpret the <tt>first_kex_follows</tt> option during the
171: initial key exchange.
1.1 deraadt 172: </ul>
173: </ul>
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.
1.19 ! sobrado 197: <li>Fixed a leak in
! 198: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=SSL_new&sektion=3">SSL_new(3)</a>

1.17 sobrado 200: <li>Fixed a memory leak and out-of-bounds access in <tt>OBJ_obj2txt</tt>.
201: <li>Fixed an up-to 7 byte overflow in RC4 when len is not a multiple of
202: <tt>sizeof(RC4_CHUNK)</tt>.
1.19 ! sobrado 203: <li>Added
! 204: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=EVP_AEAD_CTX_init&sektion=3">EVP_aead_chacha20_poly1305(3)</a>
! 205: which matches the
1.18 sobrado 206: <tt>AEAD</tt> construction introduced in RFC 7539, which is different
207: than that already used in TLS with
1.19 ! sobrado 208: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=EVP_AEAD_CTX_init&sektion=3">EVP_aead_chacha20_poly1305(3)</a>.
1.18 sobrado 209: <li>More man pages converted from pod to

211: format.
1.17 sobrado 212: <li>Added <tt>COMODO RSA Certification Authority</tt> and
213: <tt>QuoVadis</tt> root certificates to <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
214: <li>Removed Remhve "<tt>C=US, O=VeriSign, Inc., OU=Class 3 Public Primary
215: Certification Authority</tt>"
216: (serial 3c:91:31:cb:1f:f6:d0:1b:0e:9a:b8:d0:44:bf:12:be)
217: root certificate from <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
218: <li>Fixed incorrect TLS certificate loading by
219: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>.
220: <li>The following CVEs had been fixed:
221: <ul>
222: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3194</tt>—NULL pointer dereference in client
223: side certificate validation.
224: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3195</tt>—memory leak in PKCS7, not reachable
225: from TLS/SSL.
226: </ul>
227: <li>Note: The following OpenSSL CVEs did not apply to LibreSSL:
228: <ul>
229: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3193</tt>—carry propagating bug in the x86_64
230: Montgomery squaring procedure.
231: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3196</tt>—double free race condition of the
232: identify hint data.

1.1 deraadt 234: </ul>
235: <li>Code improvements:
236: <ul>
1.17 sobrado 237: <li>Added install target for <tt>cmake</tt> builds.
238: <li>Updated <tt>pkgconfig</tt> files to correctly report the release
239: version number, not the individual library ABI version numbers.
240: <li>SSLv3 is now permanently removed from the tree.
241: <li>The <tt>libtls</tt> API is changed from the 2.2.x series:
242: <ul>
1.19 ! sobrado 243: <li>The
! 244: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_read(3)</a>
! 245: and
! 246: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_write(3)</a>
! 247: functions now work better with external event libraries.
1.17 sobrado 248: <li>Client-side verification is now supported, with the client
249: supplying the certificate to the server.
1.19 ! sobrado 250: <li>Also, when using
! 251: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_fds(3)</a>,
! 252: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_socket(3)</a>
! 253: or
! 254: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_accept_fds(3)</a>,
1.17 sobrado 255: <tt>libtls</tt> no longer implicitly closes the passed in sockets.
256: The caller is responsible for closing them in this case.
257: </ul>
258: <li>New interface <tt>OPENSSL_cpu_caps</tt> is provided that does not
259: allow software to inadvertently modify cpu capability flags.
260: <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap</tt> and <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap_loc</tt> are removed.
1.18 sobrado 261: <li>The <tt>out_len</tt> argument of <tt>AEAD</tt> changed from
262: <tt>ssize_t</tt> to <tt>size_t</tt>.
1.17 sobrado 263: <li>Deduplicated DTLS code, sharing bugfixes and improvements with TLS.
264: <li>Converted
265: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>
266: to use <tt>libtls</tt> for client and server operations; it is
267: included in the libressl-portable distribution as an example of how
268: to use the <tt>libtls</tt> library. This is intended to be a simpler
269: and more robust replacement for <tt>openssl s_client</tt> and
270: <tt>openssl s_server</tt> for day-to-day operations.
271: <li>ASN.1 cleanups and RFC5280 compliance fixes.
272: <li>Time representations switched from <tt>unsigned long</tt> to

! 280: and
! 281: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_peer_cert_notafter(3)</a>.
! 282: <li>Changed
! 283: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_servername(3)</a>
! 284: to use the first address that resolves with
1.18 sobrado 285: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=getaddrinfo&sektion=3">getaddrinfo(3)</a>.
1.17 sobrado 286: <li>Remove broken conditional <tt>EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY</tt> code
287: (non-functional since initial commit in 2004).
1.19 ! sobrado 288: <li>Reject too small bits value in
! 289: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=BN_generate_prime&sektion=3">BN_generate_prime_ex(3)</a>,
1.17 sobrado 290: so that it does not risk becoming negative in
291: <tt>probable_prime_dh_safe()</tt>.
1.18 sobrado 292: <li>Changed format of <tt>LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER</tt> to match that of
1.17 sobrado 293: <tt>OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER</tt>.

394: Following this are the instructions which you would have on a piece of
395: paper if you had purchased a CDROM set instead of doing an alternate
396: form of install. The instructions for doing an HTTP (or other style
397: of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact
398: so that you can see how much easier it would have been if you had
399: purchased a CDROM instead.

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

689: source tree, our ports tree is available via
690: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
691: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
692: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
693: with a command like:
694: <p>
695: <ul><pre>
696: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>
697: # <strong>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_9</strong>
698: </pre></ul>
699: <p>
700: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
701: server.]
702: <p>
703: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
704: ports for the 5.9 release will be made available if problems arise.
705: <p>
706: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
707: would like to know more, the mailing list
708: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
