1.31 bluhm 225: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>
1.63 jsing 226: now inspects AH packets and matches on the inner protocol.
1.31 bluhm 227: This makes IPv4 authentication headers work like IPv6.
228: <li>The length of extension header chains in pf(4) is limited.
1.63 jsing 229: This prevents spending excessive CPU time on crafted packets.
230: <li>Block IPv6 packets in
231: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>
232: that have a hop-by-hop options header or a destination options header.
233: Such packets can be passed by adding "allow-opts" to the rule.
234: This makes IPv6 option handling consistent with IPv4.
1.38 jca 235: <li>If the IPv4 ID gets reused too fast, pf(4) fragment reassembly
1.31 bluhm 236: uses a smarter strategy to drop packets.
1.63 jsing 237: <li>Enabled the use of per-CPU caches in the network packet allocators.
1.1 deraadt 238: </ul>
239: <p>

275: request to be sent, a reply to be received and the result checked on
276: the command line.
1.58 jsing 277: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/nc.1">nc(1)</a>
1.63 jsing 278: now has a <tt>-Z</tt> option, allowing the peer certificate and chain to be

1.19 deraadt 310: were rewritten to cope with the removal.
1.29 brynet 311: <li>Trapsleds, a new mitigation that significantly reduces the amount of
1.53 deraadt 312: nops in the instruction stream, replacing them with trap instructions
313: or jump-over-trap sequences, thereby requiring greater accuracy for
314: targetting potential gadgets.
1.29 brynet 315: <li>Kernel Address Randomized Link (KARL), a new "link-kit" allows the .o
316: files of the kernel to be relinked in a random order, creating a unique
1.53 deraadt 317: kernel for each boot. /bsd is now non-readable to users, to try to
318: keep the secret.
1.29 brynet 319: <li>Like with libc previously,

1.1 deraadt 570: </ul>
571: <li>New/changed features:
572: <ul>
1.31 bluhm 573: <li>Add RemoteCommand option to specify a command in the
574: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>
575: config file instead of giving it on the client's command
576: line.
577: The feature allows to automate tasks using ssh config.
1.56 djm 578: <li>sshd(8): add ExposeAuthInfo option that enables writing details of
579: the authentication methods used (including public keys where
580: applicable) to a file that is exposed via a $SSH_USER_AUTH
581: environment variable in the subsequent session.
582: <li>ssh(1): add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode,
583: ssh will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections
584: to destinations requested by the remote SOCKS client. This mode
585: is requested using extended syntax for the -R and RemoteForward
586: options and, because it is implemented solely at the client,
587: does not require the server be updated to be supported.
588: <li>sshd(8): allow LogLevel directive in sshd_config Match blocks.
589: <li>ssh-keygen(1): allow inclusion of arbitrary string or flag
1.67 rob 590: certificate extensions and critical options.
1.56 djm 591: <li>ssh-keygen(1): allow ssh-keygen to use a key held in ssh-agent as
592: a CA when signing certificates.
593: <li>ssh(1)/sshd(8): allow IPQoS=none in ssh/sshd to not set an explicit
594: ToS/DSCP value and just use the operating system default.
595: <li>ssh-add(1): added -q option to make ssh-add quiet on success.
596: <li>ssh(1): expand the StrictHostKeyChecking option with two new
597: settings. The first "accept-new" will automatically accept
598: hitherto-unseen keys but will refuse connections for changed or
599: invalid hostkeys. This is a safer subset of the current behaviour
600: of StrictHostKeyChecking=no. The second setting "off", is a synonym
601: for the current behaviour of StrictHostKeyChecking=no: accept new
602: host keys, and continue connection for hosts with incorrect
603: hostkeys. A future release will change the meaning of
604: StrictHostKeyChecking=no to the behaviour of "accept-new".
605: <li>ssh(1): add SyslogFacility option to ssh(1) matching the equivalent
606: option in sshd(8).
1.1 deraadt 607: </ul>
608: <li>The following significant bugs have been fixed in this release:
609: <ul>
1.56 djm 610: <li>ssh(1): use HostKeyAlias if specified instead of hostname for
1.69 rob 611: matching host certificate principal names.
1.56 djm 612: <li>sftp(1): implement sorting for globbed ls.
613: <li>ssh(1): add a user@host prefix to client's "Permission denied"
614: messages, useful in particular when using "stacked" connections
615: (e.g. ssh -J) where it's not clear which host is denying.
616: <li>ssh(1): accept unknown EXT_INFO extension values that contain \0
617: characters. These are legal, but would previously cause fatal
618: connection errors if received.
619: <li>ssh(1)/sshd(8): repair compression statistics printed at
620: connection exit.
621: <li>sftp(1): print '?' instead of incorrect link count (that the
622: protocol doesn't provide) for remote listings.
623: <li>ssh(1): return failure rather than fatal() for more cases during
624: session multiplexing negotiations. Causes the session to fall back
625: to a non-mux connection if they occur.
626: <li>ssh(1): mention that the server may send debug messages to explain
627: public key authentication problems under some circumstances.
628: <li>Translate OpenSSL error codes to better report incorrect passphrase
629: errors when loading private keys.
630: <li>sshd(8): adjust compatibility patterns for WinSCP to correctly
631: identify versions that implement only the legacy DH group exchange
632: scheme.
633: <li>ssh(1): print the "Killed by signal 1" message only at LogLevel
634: verbose so that it is not shown at the default level; prevents it
635: from appearing during ssh -J and equivalent ProxyCommand configs.
636: <li>ssh-keygen(1): when generating all hostkeys (ssh-keygen -A), clobber
637: existing keys if they exist but are zero length. zero-length keys
638: could previously be made if ssh-keygen failed or was interrupted part
639: way through generating them.
640: <li>ssh(1): fix pledge(2) violation in the escape sequence "~&" used to
641: place the current session in the background.
642: <li>ssh-keyscan(1): avoid double-close() on file descriptors.
643: <li>sshd(8): avoid reliance on shared use of pointers shared between
644: monitor and child sshd processes.
645: <li>sshd_config(8): document available AuthenticationMethods.
646: <li>ssh(1): avoid truncation in some login prompts.
647: <li>ssh(1): make "--" before the hostname terminate argument processing
648: after the hostname too.
649: <li>ssh-keygen(1): switch from aes256-cbc to aes256-ctr for encrypting
650: new-style private keys. Fixes problems related to private key
651: handling for no-OpenSSL builds.
652: <li>ssh(1): warn and do not attempt to use keys when the public and
653: private halves do not match.
654: <li>sftp(1): don't print verbose error message when ssh disconnects
655: from under sftp.
656: <li>sshd(8): fix keepalive scheduling problem: activity on a forwarded
657: port from preventing the keepalive from being sent.
658: <li>sshd(8): when started without root privileges, don't require the
659: privilege separation user or path to exist. Makes running the
660: regression tests easier without touching the filesystem.
661: <li>Make integrity.sh regression tests more robust against timeouts.
662: <li>ssh(1)/sshd(8): correctness fix for channels implementation: accept
663: channel IDs greater than 0x7FFFFFFF.

703: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/tls_config_free.3">tls_config_free(3)</a>
704: to be called as soon as it has been passed to the final
705: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/tls_configure.3">tls_configure(3)</a>
706: call, simplifying lifetime tracking for the application.
707: <li>Dropped cipher suites using DSS authentication.
708: <li>Removed support for DSS/DSA from libssl.
709: <li>Distinguish between self-issued certificates and self-signed
710: certificates. The certificate verification code has special cases
711: for self-signed certificates and without this change, self-issued
712: certificates (which it seems are common place with
713: openvpn/easyrsa) were also being included in this category.
714: <li>Added a new TLS extension handling framework and converted all
715: TLS extensions to use it.
716: <li>Improved and added many new manpages. Updated
717: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/SSL_CTX_check_private_key.3">SSL_{CTX_,}check_private_key(3)</a>
718: manpages with additional cautions regarding their use.
719: <li>Cleaned up and simplified EC key/curve configuration handling.
720: <li>Added
721: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/tls_config_set_ecdhecurves.3">tls_config_set_ecdhecurves(3)</a>
722: to libtls, which allows the names of the elliptical curves that may
723: be used during client and server key exchange to be specified.
724: <li>Converted more code paths to use CBB/CBS.
725: <li>Removed NPN support - NPN was never standardised and the last draft
726: expired in October 2012.
727: <li>Removed SSL_OP_CRYPTOPRO_TLSEXT_BUG workaround for old/broken
728: CryptoPro clients.
729: <li>Removed support for the TLS padding extension, which was added as a
1.60 jsing 730: workaround for an old bug in F5's TLS termination.
1.65 rob 731: <li>Added ability to clamp notafter values in certificates for systems
1.58 jsing 732: with 32-bit time_t. This is necessary to conform to RFC 5280 4.1.2.5.
733: <li>Removed the original (pre-IETF) chacha20-poly1305 cipher suites.
734: <li>Reclassified ECDHE-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA from HIGH to MEDIUM.
735: <li>Provide a useful error with libtls if there are no OCSP URLs in a
736: peer certificate.
737: <li>Keep track of which keypair is in use by a TLS context, fixing a bug
738: where a TLS server with SNI would only return the OCSP staple for the
739: default keypair.
740: <li>If

1104: upgrade instructions and advice can be found in the

1111:
1112: <tt>src.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src</tt>.
1113: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1114: which are in a separate archive.
1115: To extract:
1116:
1117: <blockquote><pre>
1118: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
1119: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
1120: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
1121: </pre></blockquote>
1122:
1123: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.
1124: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1125: To extract:
1126:
1127: <blockquote><pre>
1128: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
1129: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
1130: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>
1131: </pre></blockquote>
1132:
1133: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1134: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1135: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1136: Using these files
1137: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1138: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1145: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
1146:
1147: <blockquote><pre>
1148: # <b>cd /usr</b>
1149: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</b>
1150: </pre></blockquote>
1151:
1152: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
1153: if you know nothing about ports
1154: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1155: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1156: OpenBSD ports system.
1157: <p>
1158: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1159: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1160: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1.85 tj 1161: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
1.1 deraadt 1162: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1163: with a command like:
1164:
1165: <blockquote><pre>
1166: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1.15 phessler 1167: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_2</b>
1.1 deraadt 1168: </pre></blockquote>
1169:
1170: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1171: server.]
1172: <p>
1173: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1174: ports for the 6.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
1175: <p>
1176: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1177: would like to know more, the mailing list
1178: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
