1.63 jsing 221: now inspects AH packets and matches on the inner protocol.
1.31 bluhm 222: This makes IPv4 authentication headers work like IPv6.
223: <li>The length of extension header chains in pf(4) is limited.
1.63 jsing 224: This prevents spending excessive CPU time on crafted packets.
225: <li>Block IPv6 packets in
226: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>
227: that have a hop-by-hop options header or a destination options header.
228: Such packets can be passed by adding "allow-opts" to the rule.
229: This makes IPv6 option handling consistent with IPv4.
1.38 jca 230: <li>If the IPv4 ID gets reused too fast, pf(4) fragment reassembly
1.31 bluhm 231: uses a smarter strategy to drop packets.
1.63 jsing 232: <li>Enabled the use of per-CPU caches in the network packet allocators.

264: used implicitly.
1.31 bluhm 265: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/nc.1">nc(1)</a>
1.92 bentley 266: now has a <code>-W recvlimit</code> option to terminate netcat after
1.63 jsing 267: receiving the specified number of packets. This allows for a UDP
268: request to be sent, a reply to be received and the result checked on
269: the command line.
1.58 jsing 270: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/nc.1">nc(1)</a>
1.92 bentley 271: now has a <code>-Z</code> option, allowing the peer certificate and chain to be

1.29 brynet 307: <li>Kernel Address Randomized Link (KARL), a new "link-kit" allows the .o
308: files of the kernel to be relinked in a random order, creating a unique
1.53 deraadt 309: kernel for each boot. /bsd is now non-readable to users, to try to
310: keep the secret.
1.29 brynet 311: <li>Like with libc previously,

1.1 deraadt 557: </ul>
558: <li>New/changed features:
559: <ul>
1.31 bluhm 560: <li>Add RemoteCommand option to specify a command in the
561: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>
562: config file instead of giving it on the client's command
563: line.
564: The feature allows to automate tasks using ssh config.
1.56 djm 565: <li>sshd(8): add ExposeAuthInfo option that enables writing details of
566: the authentication methods used (including public keys where
567: applicable) to a file that is exposed via a $SSH_USER_AUTH
568: environment variable in the subsequent session.
569: <li>ssh(1): add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode,
570: ssh will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections
571: to destinations requested by the remote SOCKS client. This mode
572: is requested using extended syntax for the -R and RemoteForward
573: options and, because it is implemented solely at the client,
574: does not require the server be updated to be supported.
575: <li>sshd(8): allow LogLevel directive in sshd_config Match blocks.
576: <li>ssh-keygen(1): allow inclusion of arbitrary string or flag
1.67 rob 577: certificate extensions and critical options.
1.56 djm 578: <li>ssh-keygen(1): allow ssh-keygen to use a key held in ssh-agent as
579: a CA when signing certificates.
580: <li>ssh(1)/sshd(8): allow IPQoS=none in ssh/sshd to not set an explicit
581: ToS/DSCP value and just use the operating system default.
582: <li>ssh-add(1): added -q option to make ssh-add quiet on success.
583: <li>ssh(1): expand the StrictHostKeyChecking option with two new
584: settings. The first "accept-new" will automatically accept
585: hitherto-unseen keys but will refuse connections for changed or
586: invalid hostkeys. This is a safer subset of the current behaviour
587: of StrictHostKeyChecking=no. The second setting "off", is a synonym
588: for the current behaviour of StrictHostKeyChecking=no: accept new
589: host keys, and continue connection for hosts with incorrect
590: hostkeys. A future release will change the meaning of
591: StrictHostKeyChecking=no to the behaviour of "accept-new".
592: <li>ssh(1): add SyslogFacility option to ssh(1) matching the equivalent
593: option in sshd(8).
1.1 deraadt 594: </ul>
595: <li>The following significant bugs have been fixed in this release:
596: <ul>
1.56 djm 597: <li>ssh(1): use HostKeyAlias if specified instead of hostname for
1.69 rob 598: matching host certificate principal names.
1.56 djm 599: <li>sftp(1): implement sorting for globbed ls.
600: <li>ssh(1): add a user@host prefix to client's "Permission denied"
601: messages, useful in particular when using "stacked" connections
602: (e.g. ssh -J) where it's not clear which host is denying.
603: <li>ssh(1): accept unknown EXT_INFO extension values that contain \0
604: characters. These are legal, but would previously cause fatal
605: connection errors if received.
606: <li>ssh(1)/sshd(8): repair compression statistics printed at
607: connection exit.
608: <li>sftp(1): print '?' instead of incorrect link count (that the
609: protocol doesn't provide) for remote listings.
610: <li>ssh(1): return failure rather than fatal() for more cases during
611: session multiplexing negotiations. Causes the session to fall back
612: to a non-mux connection if they occur.
613: <li>ssh(1): mention that the server may send debug messages to explain
614: public key authentication problems under some circumstances.
615: <li>Translate OpenSSL error codes to better report incorrect passphrase
616: errors when loading private keys.
617: <li>sshd(8): adjust compatibility patterns for WinSCP to correctly
618: identify versions that implement only the legacy DH group exchange
619: scheme.
620: <li>ssh(1): print the "Killed by signal 1" message only at LogLevel
621: verbose so that it is not shown at the default level; prevents it
622: from appearing during ssh -J and equivalent ProxyCommand configs.
623: <li>ssh-keygen(1): when generating all hostkeys (ssh-keygen -A), clobber
624: existing keys if they exist but are zero length. zero-length keys
625: could previously be made if ssh-keygen failed or was interrupted part
626: way through generating them.
627: <li>ssh(1): fix pledge(2) violation in the escape sequence "~&" used to
628: place the current session in the background.
629: <li>ssh-keyscan(1): avoid double-close() on file descriptors.
630: <li>sshd(8): avoid reliance on shared use of pointers shared between
631: monitor and child sshd processes.
632: <li>sshd_config(8): document available AuthenticationMethods.
633: <li>ssh(1): avoid truncation in some login prompts.
634: <li>ssh(1): make "--" before the hostname terminate argument processing
635: after the hostname too.
636: <li>ssh-keygen(1): switch from aes256-cbc to aes256-ctr for encrypting
637: new-style private keys. Fixes problems related to private key
638: handling for no-OpenSSL builds.
639: <li>ssh(1): warn and do not attempt to use keys when the public and
1.94 deraadt 640: private halves do not match.
1.56 djm 641: <li>sftp(1): don't print verbose error message when ssh disconnects
642: from under sftp.
643: <li>sshd(8): fix keepalive scheduling problem: activity on a forwarded
644: port from preventing the keepalive from being sent.
645: <li>sshd(8): when started without root privileges, don't require the
646: privilege separation user or path to exist. Makes running the
647: regression tests easier without touching the filesystem.
648: <li>Make integrity.sh regression tests more robust against timeouts.
649: <li>ssh(1)/sshd(8): correctness fix for channels implementation: accept
650: channel IDs greater than 0x7FFFFFFF.

690: to be called as soon as it has been passed to the final
691: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/tls_configure.3">tls_configure(3)</a>
692: call, simplifying lifetime tracking for the application.
693: <li>Dropped cipher suites using DSS authentication.
694: <li>Removed support for DSS/DSA from libssl.
695: <li>Distinguish between self-issued certificates and self-signed
696: certificates. The certificate verification code has special cases
697: for self-signed certificates and without this change, self-issued
698: certificates (which it seems are common place with
699: openvpn/easyrsa) were also being included in this category.
700: <li>Added a new TLS extension handling framework and converted all
701: TLS extensions to use it.
702: <li>Improved and added many new manpages. Updated
703: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/SSL_CTX_check_private_key.3">SSL_{CTX_,}check_private_key(3)</a>
704: manpages with additional cautions regarding their use.

708: to libtls, which allows the names of the elliptical curves that may
709: be used during client and server key exchange to be specified.
710: <li>Converted more code paths to use CBB/CBS.
711: <li>Removed NPN support - NPN was never standardised and the last draft
712: expired in October 2012.
713: <li>Removed SSL_OP_CRYPTOPRO_TLSEXT_BUG workaround for old/broken
714: CryptoPro clients.
715: <li>Removed support for the TLS padding extension, which was added as a
1.60 jsing 716: workaround for an old bug in F5's TLS termination.
1.65 rob 717: <li>Added ability to clamp notafter values in certificates for systems
1.58 jsing 718: with 32-bit time_t. This is necessary to conform to RFC 5280 4.1.2.5.
719: <li>Removed the original (pre-IETF) chacha20-poly1305 cipher suites.
720: <li>Reclassified ECDHE-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA from HIGH to MEDIUM.
721: <li>Provide a useful error with libtls if there are no OCSP URLs in a
722: peer certificate.
723: <li>Keep track of which keypair is in use by a TLS context, fixing a bug
724: where a TLS server with SNI would only return the OCSP staple for the
725: default keypair.
726: <li>If
727: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/tls_config_parse_protocols.3">tls_config_parse_protocols(3)</a>

1.1 deraadt 1082: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1083: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1084: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1085: Using these files
1086: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1087: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1.1 deraadt 1103: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
1104: if you know nothing about ports
1105: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1106: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1107: OpenBSD ports system.
1108: <p>
1109: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1110: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1111: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1.85 tj 1112: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
1.1 deraadt 1113: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1114: with a command like:
1115:
1116: <blockquote><pre>
1.95 ! deraadt 1117: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
! 1118: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_2</kbd>
1.1 deraadt 1119: </pre></blockquote>
1120:
1121: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1122: server.]
1123: <p>
1124: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1125: ports for the 6.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
1126: <p>
1127: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1128: would like to know more, the mailing list
1129: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
