89: <li>Installing to a disk partitioned with a GPT is now supported (amd64 only).
90: <li>When initializing a GPT the required EFI System partition is automatically created.
91: <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.

94: <p>
95:
96: <li>Routing daemons and other userland network improvements:

100: <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.
101: <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.
102: <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.
103: <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.
104: <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.
105: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dhclient&sektion=8">dhclient(8)</a> was pledged.
106: <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.

133: <li>Many obsolete <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man5/disktab.5?query=disktab">disktab(5)</a> attributes and entries were removed.
134: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man4/softraid.4?query=softraid">softraid(4)</a> volumes now correctly look for the disklabel in the first OpenBSD disk partition, not the last.
135: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man4/softraid.4?query=softraid">softraid(4)</a> volumes can now be partitioned with a GPT.
1.25 krw 136: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=fdisk&sektion=9">fdisk(8)</a> now creates a default GPT as well as the protective MBR when the '-g' flag is used.

138: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=fdisk&sektion=8">fdisk(8)</a> now has a '-v' flag that causes a verbose display of both MBR and GPT information.
139: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=fdisk&sektion=8">fdisk(8)</a> now provides full interactive GPT editing.
140: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=fdisk&sektion=8">fdisk(8)</a> was pledged.
141: <li>Disks with sector sizes other than 512 bytes can now be partitioned with a GPT.

168: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
1.18 sobrado 169: client experimental support for resuming SSH-connections (roaming).
1.16 sobrado 170: In the default configuration, this could potentially leak client keys
171: to a hostile server. The authentication of the server host key
172: prevents exploitation by a man-in-the-middle, so this information leak
173: is restricted to connections to malicious or compromised servers.
174: This feature has been disabled in the
175: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
176: client, and it has been removed from the source tree. The matching
177: server code has never been shipped.
178: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
179: OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in
180: <tt>PermitRootLogin=prohibit-password/without-password</tt> that could,
181: depending on compile-time configuration, permit password authentication
182: to root while preventing other forms of authentication.
183: <li>Eliminate the fallback from untrusted X11-forwarding to trusted
184: forwarding for cases when the X server disables the <tt>SECURITY</tt>
185: extension.
186: <li>Fix an out of-bound read access in the packet handling code.
1.18 sobrado 187: <li>Further use of
188: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=bzero&sektion=3">explicit_bzero(3)</a>
189: has been added in various buffer handling code paths to guard against
190: compilers aggressively doing dead-store removal.

192: <li>The following significant bugs have been fixed in this release:
193: <ul>
1.16 sobrado 194: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,

1.18 sobrado 196: add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.

1.18 sobrado 199: refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
1.16 sobrado 200: <li>Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
201: memory, etc) in
202: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>

1.1 deraadt 211: <ul>
212: <li>User-visible features:
213: <ul>
1.17 sobrado 214: <li>This release corrects the handling of <tt>ClientHello</tt> messages
215: that do not include TLS extensions, resulting in such handshakes being
216: aborted.
217: <li>When loading a DSA key from an raw (without DH parameters) ASN.1
218: serialization, perform some consistency checks on its `p' and `q'
219: values, and return an error if the checks failed.
220: <li>Fixed a bug in <tt>ECDH_compute_key</tt> that can lead to silent
221: truncation of the result key without error. A coding error could cause
222: software to use much shorter keys than intended.
223: <li>Removed support for <tt>DTLS_BAD_VER</tt>. Pre-DTLSv1 implementations
224: are no longer supported.
225: <li>The engine command and parameters are removed from
226: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=openssl&sektion=1">openssl(1)</a>.
227: Previous releases removed dynamic and builtin engine support already.
228: <li>SHA-0 is removed, which was withdrawn shortly after publication
229: twenty years ago.
230: <li>Added <tt>Certplus CA</tt> root certificate to the default
231: <tt>cert.pem</tt> file.
1.19 sobrado 232: <li>Fixed a leak in

1.19 sobrado 241: which matches the
1.18 sobrado 242: <tt>AEAD</tt> construction introduced in RFC 7539, which is different
243: than that already used in TLS with
1.28 sobrado 244: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=EVP_AEAD_CTX_init&sektion=3">EVP_aead_chacha20_poly1305(3)</a>.

252: (serial 3c:91:31:cb:1f:f6:d0:1b:0e:9a:b8:d0:44:bf:12:be)
253: root certificate from <tt>cert.pem</tt>.
254: <li>Fixed incorrect TLS certificate loading by
1.28 sobrado 255: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=nc&sektion=1">nc(1)</a>.
1.17 sobrado 256: <li>The following CVEs had been fixed:

261: from TLS/SSL.
1.17 sobrado 262: </ul>
263: <li>Note: The following OpenSSL CVEs did not apply to LibreSSL:
264: <ul>

276: <li>SSLv3 is now permanently removed from the tree.
277: <li>The <tt>libtls</tt> API is changed from the 2.2.x series:
278: <ul>

283: functions now work better with external event libraries.
284: <li>Client-side verification is now supported, with the client
285: supplying the certificate to the server.
286: <li>Also, when using
287: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_fds(3)</a>,
288: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tls_init&sektion=3">tls_connect_socket(3)</a>
289: or

1.17 sobrado 293: </ul>
294: <li>New interface <tt>OPENSSL_cpu_caps</tt> is provided that does not
295: allow software to inadvertently modify cpu capability flags.
296: <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap</tt> and <tt>OPENSSL_ia32cap_loc</tt> are removed.
1.18 sobrado 297: <li>The <tt>out_len</tt> argument of <tt>AEAD</tt> changed from

1.17 sobrado 302: to use <tt>libtls</tt> for client and server operations; it is
303: included in the libressl-portable distribution as an example of how
304: to use the <tt>libtls</tt> library. This is intended to be a simpler
305: and more robust replacement for <tt>openssl s_client</tt> and
306: <tt>openssl s_server</tt> for day-to-day operations.
307: <li>ASN.1 cleanups and RFC5280 compliance fixes.
308: <li>Time representations switched from <tt>unsigned long</tt> to

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