177: man page.
178: <li>When sending TCP streams they are locally stored in large
179: mbuf clusters to improve memory management.
180: The maximum TCP send and receive buffer size has been
181: increased from 256MB to 2GB.

199: network stack.
200: <li>When passing packets from the network stack to the
201: interface layer, make sure that they have no pointers to
202: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>
203: which could result in a memory free operation at the wrong
204: protection level.
205: <li>Fix checksum calculation in
206: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>
207: af-to ICMP packet conversions.
208: Simplify af-to processing in and fix path MTU discovery in
209: some corner cases.
210: <li>Improve IPv6 fragment processing.
211: Drop empty atomic fragments early.
212: Be more paranoid when IPv6 hop-by-hop headers appear after
213: fragment headers.
214: Follow RFC 5722 "Handling of Overlapping IPv6 Fragments"
215: more strictly in
216: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>.

218: generating atomic fragments, so do not send them anymore.
219: <li>Depending on the addresses,
220: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/ipsecctl.8">ipsecctl(8)</a>
221: may automatically group SA bundles together.
222: To make clear what is going on, the kernel provides this
223: information and ipsecctl -s sa prints IPsec SA bundles.
1.51 krw 224: <li>A new routing socket message type, RTM_PROPOSAL, was added to
225: facilitate future improvements to the network configuration process.

487: <ul>
488:
489: <li> libtls now supports ALPN and SNI
490:
491: <li> libtls adds a new callback interface for integrating custom IO
492: functions. Thanks to Tobias Pape.
493:
494: <li> libtls now handles 4 cipher suite groups:
495: <Ul>
496: <li> "secure" (TLSv1.2+AEAD+PFS)
497: <li> "compat" (HIGH:!aNULL)
498: <li> "legacy" (HIGH:MEDIUM:!aNULL)
499: <li> "insecure" (ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL)
500: </ul>
501: This allows for flexibility and finer grained control, rather than
502: having two extremes (an issue raised by Marko Kreen some time ago).
503:
504: <li> Tightened error handling for tls_config_set_ciphers().
505:
506: <li> libtls now always loads CA, key and certificate files at the time the
507: configuration function is called. This simplifies code and results in
508: a single memory based code path being used to provide data to libssl.
509:
510: <li> Add support for OCSP intermediate certificates.
511:
512: <li> Added functions used by stunnel and exim from BoringSSL - this
513: brings in X509_check_host, X509_check_email, X509_check_ip, and
514: X509_check_ip_asc.
515:
516: <li> Added initial support for iOS, thanks to Jacob Berkman.
517:
518: <li> Improved behavior of arc4random on Windows when using memory leak
519: analysis software.
520:
521: <li> Correctly handle an EOF that occurs prior to the TLS handshake
522: completing. Reported by Vasily Kolobkov, based on a diff from Marko
523: Kreen.
524:
525: <li> Limit the support of the "backward compatible" ssl2 handshake to
526: only be used if TLS 1.0 is enabled.
527:
528: <li> Fix incorrect results in certain cases on 64-bit systems when
529: BN_mod_word() can return incorrect results. BN_mod_word() now can
530: return an error condition. Thanks to Brian Smith.
531:
532: <li> Added constant-time updates to address CVE-2016-0702
533:
534: <li> Fixed undefined behavior in BN_GF2m_mod_arr()
535:
536: <li> Removed unused Cryptographic Message Support (CMS)
537:
538: <li> More conversions of long long idioms to time_t
539:
540: <li> Improved compatibility by avoiding printing NULL strings with
541: printf.
542:
543: <li> Reverted change that cleans up the EVP cipher context in
544: EVP_EncryptFinal() and EVP_DecryptFinal(). Some software relies on the
545: previous behaviour.
546:
547: <li> Avoid unbounded memory growth in libssl, which can be triggered
548: by a TLS client repeatedly renegotiating and sending OCSP Status
549: Request TLS extensions.
550:
551: <li> Avoid falling back to a weak digest for (EC)DH when using SNI
552: with libssl.
553:
554: <li> X509_cmp_time() now passes a malformed GeneralizedTime field as
555: an error. Reported by Theofilos Petsios.
556:
557: <li> Detect zero-length encrypted session data early, instead of when
558: malloc(0) fails or the HMAC check fails. Noted independently by
559: jsing@ and Kurt Cancemi.
560:
561: <li> Check for and handle failure of HMAC_{Update,Final} or
562: EVP_DecryptUpdate().
563:
564: <li> Massive update and normalization of manpages, conversion to
565: mandoc format. Many pages were rewritten for clarity and accuracy.
566: Portable doc links are up-to-date with a new conversion tool.
567:
568: <li> Curve25519 Key Exchange support.
569:
570: <li> Support for alternate chains for certificate verification.
571:
572: <li> Code cleanups, CBB conversions, further unification of DTLS/SSL
573: handshake code, further ASN1 macro expansion and removal.
574:
1.64 ! beck 575: <li> Private symbols are now hidden in libssl and libcrypto.
1.61 beck 576:
577: <li> Friendly certificate verification error messages in libtls, peer
578: verification is now always enabled.
579:
1.64 ! beck 580: <li> Added OCSP stapling support to libtls and nc.
1.61 beck 581:
582: <li> Added ocspcheck utility to validate a certificate against its OCSP
583: responder and save the reply for stapling
584:
585: <li> Enhanced regression tests and error handling for libtls.
586:
587: <li> Added explicit constant and non-constant time BN functions,
588: defaulting to constant time wherever possible.
589:
590: <li> Moved many leaked implementation details in public structs behind
591: opaque pointers.
592:
593: <li> Added ticket support to libtls.
594:
595: <li> Added support for setting the supported EC curves via
596: SSL{_CTX}_set1_groups{_list}() - also provide defines for the
597: previous SSL{_CTX}_set1_curves{_list} names. This also changes
598: the default list of curves to be X25519, P-256 and P-384. All
599: other curves must be manually enabled.
600:
601: <li> Added -groups option to openssl(1) s_client for specifying the
602: curves to be used in a colon-separated list.
603:
604: <li> Merged client/server version negotiation code paths into one,
605: reducing much duplicate code.
606:
607: <li> Removed error function codes from libssl and libcrypto.
608:
609: <li> Fixed an issue where a truncated packet could crash via an OOB
610: read.
611:
612: <li> Added SSL_OP_NO_CLIENT_RENEGOTIATION option that disallows
613: client-initiated renegotiation. This is the default for libtls
614: servers.
615:
616: <li> Avoid a side-channel cache-timing attack that can leak the ECDSA
617: private keys when signing. This is due to BN_mod_inverse() being
618: used without the constant time flag being set. Reported by Cesar
619: Pereida Garcia and Billy Brumley (Tampere University of
620: Technology). The fix was developed by Cesar Pereida Garcia.
621:
622: <li> iOS and MacOS compatibility updates from Simone Basso and Jacob
623: Berkman.
624:
625: <li> Added the recallocarray(3) memory allocation function, and
626: converted various places in the library to use it, such as CBB
627: and BUF_MEM_grow. recallocarray(3) is similar to
628: reallocarray. Newly allocated memory is cleared similar to
629: calloc(3). Memory that becomes unallocated while shrinking or
630: moving existing allocations is explicitly discarded by unmapping
631: or clearing to 0.
632:
633: <li> Added new root CAs from SECOM Trust Systems / Security
634: Communication of Japan.
635:
636: <li> Added EVP interface for MD5+SHA1 hashes.
637:
638: <li> Fixed DTLS client failures when the server sends a certificate
639: request.
640:
641: <li> Correct handling of padding when upgrading an SSLv2 challenge
642: into an SSLv3/TLS connection.
643:
644: <li> Allow protocols and ciphers to be set on a TLS config object in
645: libtls.
646:
647: <li> Improved nc(1) TLS handshake CPU usage and server-side error
648: reporting.

1039: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1040: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
1041: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1042: with a command like:
1043:
1044: <blockquote><pre>
1045: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1046: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_1</b>
1047: </pre></blockquote>
1048:
1049: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1050: server.]
1051: <p>
1052: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1053: ports for the 6.1 release will be made available if problems arise.
1054: <p>
1055: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1056: would like to know more, the mailing list
1057: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
