87: <li>Installing to a disk partitioned with a GPT is now supported (amd64 only).
88: <li>When initializing a GPT the required EFI System partition is automatically created.
89: <li>When installing to a GPT disk <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=installboot&sektion=8">installboot(8)</a> now formats the EFI System partition, creates the appropriate directory structure and copies the required UEFI boot files into place.
1.1 deraadt 90: <li>...
91: </ul>
92: <p>
93:
94: <li>Routing daemons and other userland network improvements:

1.23 krw 96: <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).
97: <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).
98: <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.
99: <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.
100: <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.
101: <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.
102: <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.

165: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
1.18 sobrado 166: client experimental support for resuming SSH-connections (roaming).
1.16 sobrado 167: In the default configuration, this could potentially leak client keys
168: to a hostile server. The authentication of the server host key
169: prevents exploitation by a man-in-the-middle, so this information leak
170: is restricted to connections to malicious or compromised servers.
171: This feature has been disabled in the
172: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
173: client, and it has been removed from the source tree. The matching
174: server code has never been shipped.
175: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
176: OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in
177: <tt>PermitRootLogin=prohibit-password/without-password</tt> that could,
178: depending on compile-time configuration, permit password authentication
179: to root while preventing other forms of authentication.
180: <li>Eliminate the fallback from untrusted X11-forwarding to trusted
181: forwarding for cases when the X server disables the <tt>SECURITY</tt>
182: extension.
183: <li>Fix an out of-bound read access in the packet handling code.

185: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=bzero&sektion=3">explicit_bzero(3)</a>
186: has been added in various buffer handling code paths to guard against

214: <li>When loading a DSA key from an raw (without DH parameters) ASN.1
215: serialization, perform some consistency checks on its `p' and `q'
216: values, and return an error if the checks failed.
217: <li>Fixed a bug in <tt>ECDH_compute_key</tt> that can lead to silent
218: truncation of the result key without error. A coding error could cause
219: software to use much shorter keys than intended.
220: <li>Removed support for <tt>DTLS_BAD_VER</tt>. Pre-DTLSv1 implementations
221: are no longer supported.
222: <li>The engine command and parameters are removed from

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

724: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make

732: <p>
733: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
734: server.]
735: <p>
736: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
737: ports for the 5.9 release will be made available if problems arise.
