90: <ul>
1.23 ! krw 91: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> now supports multiple domain names provided via DHCP option 15 (Domain Name).
! 92: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> now supports search domains provided via DHCP option 119 (Domain Search).
! 93: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> no longer continually checks for a change to the routing domain of the interface it controls. It now relies on the appropriate routing socket messages.
! 94: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> now issues DHCP DECLINE responses to lease offers found to be inadequate, and restarts the DISCOVER/RENEW process rather than waiting indefinitely for a better lease to appear.
! 95: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> no longer exits if a desired route cannot be added. It now just reports the fact.
! 96: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> now takes a much more careful approach to received packets to ensure only received data is used to process the packet. Packets with incorrect length information or lacking appropriate header information are now dropped.
! 97: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> again disables pending timeouts if the interface link is lost, preventing endless retries at obtaining a lease.
! 98: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> was pledged.
! 99: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhcpd&sektion=8">dhcpd(8)</a> again properly utilizes default-lease-time, max-lease-time and bootp-lease-time options.

1.1 deraadt 138: <ul>
139: <li>Security:
140: <ul>
1.16 sobrado 141: <li>Qualys Security identified vulnerabilities in the
142: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
1.18 sobrado 143: client experimental support for resuming SSH-connections (roaming).
1.16 sobrado 144: In the default configuration, this could potentially leak client keys
145: to a hostile server. The authentication of the server host key
146: prevents exploitation by a man-in-the-middle, so this information leak
147: is restricted to connections to malicious or compromised servers.
148: This feature has been disabled in the
149: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
150: client, and it has been removed from the source tree. The matching
151: server code has never been shipped.
152: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
153: OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in
154: <tt>PermitRootLogin=prohibit-password/without-password</tt> that could,
155: depending on compile-time configuration, permit password authentication
156: to root while preventing other forms of authentication.
157: <li>Eliminate the fallback from untrusted X11-forwarding to trusted
158: forwarding for cases when the X server disables the <tt>SECURITY</tt>
159: extension.
160: <li>Fix an out of-bound read access in the packet handling code.
1.18 sobrado 161: <li>Further use of
162: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=bzero&sektion=3">explicit_bzero(3)</a>
163: has been added in various buffer handling code paths to guard against
164: compilers aggressively doing dead-store removal.
1.1 deraadt 165: </ul>
166: <li>The following significant bugs have been fixed in this release:
167: <ul>
1.16 sobrado 168: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,
169: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
1.18 sobrado 170: add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
1.16 sobrado 171: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,
172: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
1.18 sobrado 173: refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
1.16 sobrado 174: <li>Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
175: memory, etc) in
176: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
177: and
178: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh-keygen&sektion=1">ssh-keygen(1)</a>.
1.18 sobrado 179: <li>Correctly interpret the <tt>first_kex_follows</tt> option during the
180: initial key exchange.

183: <p>
1.17 sobrado 184: <li>LibreSSL 2.3.2
1.1 deraadt 185: <ul>
186: <li>User-visible features:
187: <ul>
1.17 sobrado 188: <li>This release corrects the handling of <tt>ClientHello</tt> messages
189: that do not include TLS extensions, resulting in such handshakes being
190: aborted.
191: <li>When loading a DSA key from an raw (without DH parameters) ASN.1
192: serialization, perform some consistency checks on its `p' and `q'
193: values, and return an error if the checks failed.
194: <li>Fixed a bug in <tt>ECDH_compute_key</tt> that can lead to silent
195: truncation of the result key without error. A coding error could cause
196: software to use much shorter keys than intended.
197: <li>Removed support for <tt>DTLS_BAD_VER</tt>. Pre-DTLSv1 implementations
198: are no longer supported.
199: <li>The engine command and parameters are removed from
200: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=openssl&sektion=1">openssl(1)</a>.
201: Previous releases removed dynamic and builtin engine support already.
202: <li>SHA-0 is removed, which was withdrawn shortly after publication
203: twenty years ago.
204: <li>Added <tt>Certplus CA</tt> root certificate to the default
205: <tt>cert.pem</tt> file.
1.19 sobrado 206: <li>Fixed a leak in
207: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=SSL_new&sektion=3">SSL_new(3)</a>
208: in the error path.
1.17 sobrado 209: <li>Fixed a memory leak and out-of-bounds access in <tt>OBJ_obj2txt</tt>.
210: <li>Fixed an up-to 7 byte overflow in RC4 when len is not a multiple of
211: <tt>sizeof(RC4_CHUNK)</tt>.
1.19 sobrado 212: <li>Added
213: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=EVP_AEAD_CTX_init&sektion=3">EVP_aead_chacha20_poly1305(3)</a>
214: which matches the
1.18 sobrado 215: <tt>AEAD</tt> construction introduced in RFC 7539, which is different
216: than that already used in TLS with
1.19 sobrado 217: <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 218: <li>More man pages converted from pod to
219: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=mdoc&sektion=7">mdoc(7)</a>
220: format.
1.17 sobrado 221: <li>Added <tt>COMODO RSA Certification Authority</tt> and
222: <tt>QuoVadis</tt> root certificates to <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
223: <li>Removed Remhve "<tt>C=US, O=VeriSign, Inc., OU=Class 3 Public Primary
224: Certification Authority</tt>"
225: (serial 3c:91:31:cb:1f:f6:d0:1b:0e:9a:b8:d0:44:bf:12:be)
226: root certificate from <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
227: <li>Fixed incorrect TLS certificate loading by
228: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>.
229: <li>The following CVEs had been fixed:
230: <ul>
231: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3194</tt>—NULL pointer dereference in client
232: side certificate validation.
233: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3195</tt>—memory leak in PKCS7, not reachable
234: from TLS/SSL.
235: </ul>
236: <li>Note: The following OpenSSL CVEs did not apply to LibreSSL:
237: <ul>
238: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3193</tt>—carry propagating bug in the x86_64
239: Montgomery squaring procedure.
240: <li><tt>CVE-2015-3196</tt>—double free race condition of the
241: identify hint data.
242: </ul>
1.1 deraadt 243: </ul>
244: <li>Code improvements:
245: <ul>
1.17 sobrado 246: <li>Added install target for <tt>cmake</tt> builds.
247: <li>Updated <tt>pkgconfig</tt> files to correctly report the release
248: version number, not the individual library ABI version numbers.
249: <li>SSLv3 is now permanently removed from the tree.
250: <li>The <tt>libtls</tt> API is changed from the 2.2.x series:
251: <ul>
1.19 sobrado 252: <li>The
253: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_read(3)</a>
254: and
255: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_write(3)</a>
256: functions now work better with external event libraries.
1.17 sobrado 257: <li>Client-side verification is now supported, with the client
258: supplying the certificate to the server.
1.19 sobrado 259: <li>Also, when using
260: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_fds(3)</a>,
261: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_socket(3)</a>
262: or
263: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_accept_fds(3)</a>,
1.17 sobrado 264: <tt>libtls</tt> no longer implicitly closes the passed in sockets.
265: The caller is responsible for closing them in this case.
266: </ul>
267: <li>New interface <tt>OPENSSL_cpu_caps</tt> is provided that does not
268: allow software to inadvertently modify cpu capability flags.
269: <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap</tt> and <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap_loc</tt> are removed.
1.18 sobrado 270: <li>The <tt>out_len</tt> argument of <tt>AEAD</tt> changed from
271: <tt>ssize_t</tt> to <tt>size_t</tt>.
1.17 sobrado 272: <li>Deduplicated DTLS code, sharing bugfixes and improvements with TLS.
273: <li>Converted
274: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>
275: to use <tt>libtls</tt> for client and server operations; it is
276: included in the libressl-portable distribution as an example of how
277: to use the <tt>libtls</tt> library. This is intended to be a simpler
278: and more robust replacement for <tt>openssl s_client</tt> and
279: <tt>openssl s_server</tt> for day-to-day operations.
280: <li>ASN.1 cleanups and RFC5280 compliance fixes.
281: <li>Time representations switched from <tt>unsigned long</tt> to
282: <tt>time_t</tt>. LibreSSL now checks if the host OS supports 64-bit
283: <tt>time_t</tt>.
284: <li>Support always extracting the peer cipher and version with
285: <tt>libtls</tt>.
286: <li>Added ability to check certificate validity times with
1.19 sobrado 287: <tt>libtls</tt>,
288: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_peer_cert_notbefore(3)</a>
289: and
290: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_peer_cert_notafter(3)</a>.
291: <li>Changed
292: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_servername(3)</a>
293: to use the first address that resolves with
1.18 sobrado 294: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=getaddrinfo&sektion=3">getaddrinfo(3)</a>.
1.17 sobrado 295: <li>Remove broken conditional <tt>EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY</tt> code
296: (non-functional since initial commit in 2004).
1.19 sobrado 297: <li>Reject too small bits value in
298: <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 299: so that it does not risk becoming negative in
300: <tt>probable_prime_dh_safe()</tt>.
1.18 sobrado 301: <li>Changed format of <tt>LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER</tt> to match that of
1.17 sobrado 302: <tt>OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER</tt>.
303: <li>Avoid a potential undefined C99+ behavior due to shift overflow in
304: <tt>AES_decrypt</tt>.
305: <li>Deprecated the <tt>SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE</tt> flag.

693: <p>
694: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for

698: source tree, our ports tree is available via
699: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
700: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
701: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
702: with a command like:
703: <p>
704: <ul><pre>
705: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>
706: # <strong>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_9</strong>

708: <p>
709: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
710: server.]
711: <p>
712: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
713: ports for the 5.9 release will be made available if problems arise.
714: <p>
715: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
716: would like to know more, the mailing list
