227: <li>The length of extension header chains in pf(4) is limited.
1.63 jsing 228: This prevents spending excessive CPU time on crafted packets.
229: <li>Block IPv6 packets in
230: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>
231: that have a hop-by-hop options header or a destination options header.
232: Such packets can be passed by adding "allow-opts" to the rule.
233: This makes IPv6 option handling consistent with IPv4.
1.38 jca 234: <li>If the IPv4 ID gets reused too fast, pf(4) fragment reassembly
1.31 bluhm 235: uses a smarter strategy to drop packets.

570: <li>New/changed features:

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

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

1110:
1111: <tt>src.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src</tt>.
1112: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1113: which are in a separate archive.
1114: To extract:
1115:
1116: <blockquote><pre>
1117: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
1118: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
1119: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
1120: </pre></blockquote>
1121:
1122: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.
1123: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1124: To extract:
1125:
1126: <blockquote><pre>
1127: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
1128: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
1129: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>
1130: </pre></blockquote>
1131:
1132: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1133: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1134: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1135: Using these files
1136: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1137: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1144: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:

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