! 426: <li>Made efiboot fdt support device trees with NOPs in them (like the kernel version).
! 427: <li>Improved the default choice for the installer's install media
! 428: disk question to show the first disk (a) not the root disk and (b) not

1.1 benno 448: </ul>
449:
450: <li>Security improvements:
451: <ul>
1.13 ! benno 452: <li>Add Synthetic Memory Protections. These provide
! 453: <ul>
! 454: <li>Immutable memory mappings whose permissions and size cannot be
! 455: changed anymore. A new system call <a
! 456: href="https://man.openbsd.org/mimmutable.2">mimmutable(2)</a> enables
! 457: this feature.
! 458: <li>Execute-Only permission on memory mappings. This uses hardware
! 459: support where possible and emulation where the hardware does not have
! 460: seperate execute only features.
! 461: <li>Stack permission on mappings: On every system call the stack
! 462: pointer is checked. It must point to a mapping that has MAP_STACK
! 463: permissions.
! 464: <li>Pinning of syscall entry to a unique specific memory regions from
! 465: which system calls can be made.
! 466: </ul><br>
! 467: The execute-only mappings are active on arm64, risc-v, hppa,
! 468: aarch64, mips64, sparc64, amd64, mips, and power-pc platforms.
! 469: <!-- XXX xonly checks on copyin(9) are not described yet -->
! 470:
! 471: <li>Implemented a --executable-only option in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ld.bfd.1">ld.bfd(1)</a>.
! 472:
! 473: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/execve.2">execve(2)</a>
! 474: violations of <a
! 475: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pinsyscall.2">pinsyscall(2)</a> policy
! 476: to the daily mail, available by setting rc.conf.local(5)
! 477: accounting=YES.
! 478: <li>Added retguard to amd64 syscalls.
! 479:
! 480: <li>Randomly relink and install <a
! 481: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a> on boot, resulting
! 482: in a sshd with unknown address layout after every reboot.
! 483:
! 484: <li>Add another mitigation against classic BROP on systems without
! 485: execute-only mmu hardware-enforcement. A range-checking wrapper in
! 486: front of copyin() and copyinstr() ensures the userland source address
! 487: doesn't overlap the main program text and other text segments, thereby
! 488: making this address ranges unreadable to the kernel. No programs have
! 489: been discovered which require reading their own text segments with a
! 490: system call.
1.1 benno 491: </ul>
492:
493: <li>Changes in the network stack:
494: <ul>
1.13 ! benno 495:
! 496: <li>Used stoeplitz (symmetric Toeplitz hash algorithm) to generate a
! 497: hash/flowid for <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> state
! 498: keys. With this change, pf will hash traffic the same way that
! 499: hardware using a stoeplitz key will hash incoming traffic on rings.
! 500: stoeplitz is also used by the tcp stack to generate a flow id, which
! 501: is used to pick which transmit ring is used on nics with multiple
! 502: queues too. using the same algorithm throughout the stack encourages
! 503: affinity of packets to rings and softnet threads the whole way
! 504: through.
! 505:
! 506: <li>Prevented possible kernel crashes by dropping TCP packets with
! 507: destination port 0 in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>
! 508: and the stack.
! 509:
! 510: <li>Fixed a endian swap bug causing problems with <a
! 511: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vlan.4">vlans(4)</a> on <a
! 512: href="https://man.openbsd.org/em.4">em(4)</a> sparc64 systems.
! 513: <li>Denied "pipex no" tunnel setting for <a
! 514: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pppx.4">pppx(4)</a> interfaces.
! 515: <li>Fixed a panic in <a
! 516: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfsync.4">pfsync(4)</a> when there are
! 517: no data ready for bulk transfer.
! 518: <li>Turned off TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) if interface is added
! 519: to layer 2 devices.
! 520: <li>Improved <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vnet.4">vnet(4)</a>
! 521: to work better in busy conditions.
! 522: <li>Added a <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bpf.4">bpf(4)</a> timeout
! 523: (BIOCSWTIMEOUT) between capturing a packet and making the buffer
! 524: readable, preventing for example <a
! 525: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pflogd.8">pflogd(8)</a> waking every
! 526: half second even if there is nothing to read. By default this buffer
! 527: is infinite and must be filled to become readable.
! 528: <li>Avoided enabling TSO on interfaces which are already attached to a bridge.
! 529:
! 530: </ul>
1.1 benno 531:
532: <li>Routing daemons and other userland network improvements:
533: <ul>
534: <li>IPsec support was improved:

! 539: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmd.8">vmd(8)</a> to <a
! 540: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> to enabled fork +
! 541: exec for all processes. This gives each process a fresh and unique
! 542: address space to further improve randomization of ASLR and stack
! 543: protector.
! 544: </ul>
! 545:
! 546: <li>In <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>, <a

! 548: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgplgd.8">bgplgd(8)</a>:
! 549: <ul>
! 550: <li>Improved performance by optimising the output filters
! 551: <li>Add Autonomous System Provider Authorization (ASPA) validaton
! 552: based on draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-verification-12
! 553: <li>Introduce avs (ASPA validation state) filter and bgpctl
! 554: filter argument
! 555: <li>Add ASPA support for the RTR protocol based on
! 556: draft-ietf-sidrops-8210bis-10
! 557: <li>Improve open policy (RFC 9234) support and enable the capability
! 558: automatically if a role is specified for the peer
! 559: <li>Introduce a per neighbor 'role' configuration option to specify
! 560: the session role used by ASPA verification and the open policy
! 561: capability. The 'announce policy' statement was simplified at
! 562: the same time.
! 563: <li>Improve startup behaviour by introducing a small delay before
! 564: opening the connection to a new peer
! 565: <li>Support for aspa-set table config which can be provided by
! 566: <a
! 567: href="https://man.openbsd.org/rpki-client.8">rpki-client(8)</a>
! 568: <li>Make it possible to filter the RIB by invalid and leaked prefixes
! 569: in bgpctl and bgplgd
! 570: <li>Add OpenMetrics output to bgpctl for various BGP statistics and
! 571: add /metrics endpoint to bgplgd
! 572: <li>Fix of incorrect length checks that allowed an out-of-bounds
! 573: read in bgpd.
1.1 benno 574: </ul>
575: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rpki-client.8">rpki-client(8)</a> saw some changes:
576: <ul>
1.13 ! benno 577: <li>Add a new '-H' command line option to create a shortlist of
! 578: repositories to synchronize to. For example, when invoking
! 579: "rpki-client -H rpki.ripe.net -H chloe.sobornost.net", the utility
! 580: will not connect to any other hosts other than the two specified
! 581: through the -H option.
! 582: <li>Add support for validating Geofeed (RFC 9092) authenticators. To
! 583: see an example download https://sobornost.net/geofeed.csv and run
! 584: "rpki-client -f geofeed.csv"
! 585: <li>Add support for validating Trust Anchor Key (TAK) objects. TAK
! 586: objects can be used to produce new Trust Anchor Locators (TALs) signed
! 587: by and verified against the previous Trust Anchor. See
! 588: draft-ietf-sidrops-signed-tal for the full specification.
! 589: <li>Log lines related to RRDP/HTTPS connection problems now include the
! 590: IP address of the problematic endpoint (in brackets).
! 591: <li>Improve the error message when an invalid filename is encountered
! 592: in the rpkiManifest field in the Subject Access Information (SIA)
! 593: extension.
! 594: <li>Emit a warning when unexpected X.509 extensions are encountered.
! 595: <li>Restrict the ROA ipAddrBlocks field to only allow two
! 596: ROAIPAddressFamily structures (one per address family). See
! 597: draft-ietf-sidrops-rfc6482bis.
! 598: <li>Check the absence of the Path Length constraint in the Basic
! 599: Constraints extension.
! 600: <li>Restrict the SIA extension to only allow the signedObject and
! 601: rpkiNotify accessMethods.
! 602: <li>Check that the Signed Object access method is present in ROA, MFT,
! 603: ASPA, TAK, and GBR End-Entity certificates.
! 604: <li>In addition to the 'rsync://' scheme, also permit other schemes
! 605: (such as 'https://') in the SIA signedObject access method.
! 606: <li>Check that the KeyUsage extension is set to nothing but
! 607: digitalSignature on End-Entity certificates.
! 608: <li>Chect that the KeyUsage extension is set to nothing but keyCertSign
! 609: and CRLSign on CA certificates.
! 610: <li>Check that the ExtendedKeyUsage extension is absent on CA
! 611: certificates.
! 612: <li>Fix a bug in the handling of the port of http_proxy.
! 613: <li>The '-r' command line option has been deprecated.
! 614: <li>Filemode (-f) output is now presented as a text based table.
! 615: <li>The 'expires' key in the JSON/CSV/OpenBGPD output formats is now
! 616: calculated with more accuracy. The calculation takes into account the
! 617: nextUpdate value of all intermediate CRLs in the signature path
! 618: towards the trust anchor, in addition to the expiry moment of the
! 619: leaf-CRL and CAs.
! 620: <li>Handling of CRLs and Manifests in the face of inconsistent RRDP delta
! 621: publications has been improved. A copy of an alternative version of
! 622: the applicable CRL is kept in the staging area of the cache directory,
! 623: in order to increase the potential for establishing a complete
! 624: publication point, in cases where a single publication point update
! 625: was smeared across multiple RRDP delta files.
! 626: <li>The OpenBGPD configuration output now includes validated Autonomous
! 627: System Provider Authorization (ASPA) payloads as an 'aspa-set {}'
! 628: configuration block.
! 629: <li>When rpki-client is invoked with increased verbosity ('-v'), the
! 630: current RRDP Serial & Session ID are shown to aid debugging.
! 631: <li>Self-signed X.509 certificates (such as Trust Anchor certificates)
! 632: now are considered invalid if they contain an X.509
! 633: AuthorityInfoAccess extension.
! 634: <li>Signed Objects where the CMS signing-time attribute contains a
! 635: timestamp later then the X.509 certificate's notAfter timestamp are
! 636: considered invalid.
! 637: <li>Manifests where the CMS signing-time attribute contains a timestamp
! 638: later then the Manifest eContent nextUpdate timestamp are considered
! 639: invalid.
! 640: <li>Any objects whose CRL Distribution Points extension contains a
! 641: CRLIssuer, CRL Reasons, or nameRelativeToCRLIssuer field are
! 642: considered invalid in accordance with RFC 6487 section 4.8.6.
! 643: <li>For every X.509 certificate the SHA-1 of the Subject Public Key is
! 644: calculated and compared to the Subject Key Identifier (SKI), if a
! 645: mismatch is found the certificate is not trusted.
! 646: <li>Require the outside-TBS signature OID for every X.509 intermediate
! 647: CA certificate and CRL to be sha256WithRSAEncryption.
! 648: <li>Require the RSA key pair modulus and public exponent parameters to
! 649: strictly conform to the RFC 7935 profile.
! 650: <li>Ensure there is no trailing garbage present in Signed Objects beyond
! 651: the self-embedded length field.
! 652: <li>Require RRDP Session IDs to strictly be version 4 UUIDs.
! 653: <li>When decoding and validating an individual RPKI file using filemode
! 654: (rpki-client -f file), display the signature path towards the trust
! 655: anchor, and the timestamp when the signature path will expire.
! 656: <li>When decoding and validating an individual RPKI file using filemode
! 657: (rpki-client -f file), display the optional CMS signing-time, and
! 658: non-optional X.509 notBefore, and X.509 notAfter timestamps.

1109: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
1110: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1111: which are in a separate archive.
1112: To extract:
1113: <blockquote><pre>
1114: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
1115: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1116: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
1117: </pre></blockquote>
1118: <p>
1119: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
1120: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1121: To extract:
1122: <blockquote><pre>
1123: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
1124: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1125: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>

1129: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1130: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1131: Using these files
