71: <h3>What's New</h3>
72: <p>
73: This is a partial list of new features and systems included in OpenBSD 7.3.
74: For a comprehensive list, see the <a href="plus73.html">changelog</a> leading
75: to 7.3.
76:
77: <ul>
78:
79: <li>Various kernel improvements:
80: <ul>
1.41 benno 81:
82:
1.30 jsg 83: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/waitid.2">waitid(2)</a>,
84: wait for process state change.
85: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pinsyscall.2">pinsyscall(2)</a>,
86: specify the call stub for a specific system call.
87: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/getthrname.2">getthrname(2)</a> and
88: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/setthrname.2">setthrname(2)</a>,
89: get or set thread name.
1.41 benno 90: <li>Added WTRAPPED option for <a
91: href="https://man.openbsd.org/waitid.2">waitid(2)</a> to control
92: whether CLD_TRAPPED state changes, i.e., ptrace(2) on a process, are reported.
93:
94: <!-- kernel internals -->
1.22 benno 95: <li>Introduced <a
96: href="https://man.openbsd.org/clockintr.9">clockintr(9)</a>, a
1.31 jsg 97: machine-independent clock interrupt scheduler. Switched all
1.51 cheloha 98: architectures to use the new subsystem.
1.22 benno 99: <li>Introduced a new kern.autoconf_serial <a
100: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.8">sysctl(8)</a> that can be used
101: by userland to monitor state changes of the kernel device tree.
102: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pmap.9">pmap(9)</a> bugs
103: involving entering an executable mapping for a page before
104: synchronizing the data and instruction cache on arm64 and riscv64.
1.51 cheloha 105: <li>Removed copystr(9) from the public API.
106: <li>Added <a
107: href="https://man.openbsd.org/getnsecruntime.9">getnsecruntime(9)</a>.
108: Offers fast access to the system runtime clock at the cost of precision.
1.41 benno 109:
1.24 jsg 110: <li>Prevent detaching ("bioctl -d detach") of a boot volume on a RAID managed by <a
1.22 benno 111: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bioctl.8">bioctl(8)</a>.
1.41 benno 112:
1.24 jsg 113: <li>On arm64, avoid using 1GB mappings for the identity map in the
1.21 benno 114: early kernel bootstrap phase and when booting the secondary CPUs. This
115: avoids accidentally mapping memory regions that should not be mapped
116: (i.e. secure memory) as all mapped memory can be accessed
117: speculatively.
1.22 benno 118: <li>On arm64, add a machdep.lidaction <a
119: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sysctl.8">sysctl(8)</a> for <a
120: href="https://man.openbsd.org/aplsmc.4">aplsmc(4)</a> Apple Silicon
121: laptops.<br>
122: The arm64 default for the machdep.lidaction is 1, making the
1.13 benno 123: system suspend when the lid is closed. <a
124: href="https://man.openbsd.org/aplsmc.4">aplsmc(4)</a> provides support
125: for the lid position sensor.
126: <li>Changed arm64 suspend idle loop from WFE to WFI, avoiding spurious
127: wakeups while other CPUs are still active.
1.41 benno 128: <li>Added new <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dt.4">dt(4)</a> tracing ioctl
1.13 benno 129: DTIOCARGS to get the type of probe arguments.

137: <li>Unlocked <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sched_yield.2">sched_yield(2)</a>.
1.51 cheloha 138: <li>Added support for per-CPU counters to
139: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/evcount.9">evcount(9)</a>.
140: Useful for counting events that are prone to occur simultaneously
141: across multiple CPUs, like clock interrupts and IPIs.
1.22 benno 142: <li>Moved <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> purge
143: tasks out from under the kernel lock.
144: <li>Unlocked <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ioctl.2">ioctl(2)</a>

185: href="https://man.openbsd.org/xbacklight.1">xbacklight(1)</a> work
186: when using the Xorg modesetting driver.
1.1 benno 187: </ul>
188:
189: <li>VMM/VMD improvements
190: <ul>
1.22 benno 191: <li>Updated <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmm.4">vmm(4)</a> to
1.51 cheloha 192: permit SVM guests read access to MSR_HWCR and MSR_PSTATEDEF.
193: Guests can use these registers on AMD 17h and 19h hosts to
194: determine the TSC frequency without calibrating against a
195: second clock.
1.22 benno 196: <li>Allocated reference for vm and vcpu SLISTs in <a
197: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmm.4">vmm(4)</a>, keeping vmm from
198: triggering excessive wakeup calls while iterating through the list of
199: vms while servicing an <a
200: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ioctl.2">ioctl(2)</a>.
201: <li>Set <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmm.4">vmm(4)</a> RAX guest
202: register state based on VMCB.
203: <li>Removed locking in <a
204: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmm.4">vmm(4)</a> vmm_intr_pending,
205: reducing slowdowns due to requests for a lock held while the VM is
206: running.
207: <li>Increased speed of delivery of interrupts to a running vcpu in <a
208: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmm.4">vmm(4)</a>.
209: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmm.4">vmm(4)</a> treat vcpu
210: lists as immutable, removing the need to reference count individual
211: vcpu objects and use a rwlock.
1.13 benno 212: <li>Implemented zero-copy operations on virtqueues in <a
213: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmd.8">vmd(8)</a>.
214: <li>Provided a detailed e820 memory map when booting <a
215: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmd.8">vmd(8)</a> guests with SeaBIOS.
216: When a vm initializes memory ranges, we now track what each range
217: represents. This information can be used to supply the e820 memory map
218: to SeaBIOS via the fw_cfg interface allowing it to properly
219: communicate memory ranges to a guest operating system. With this
220: special cases in ports can be removed.
221: <li>Added thread names to vm processes in <a
222: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmd.8">vmd(8)</a>, visible in <a

227: identification to i386 and amd64.
228: <li>Changed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmd.8">vmd(8)</a> to
229: only open /dev/vmm once, having the parent process send the fd to the
230: vmm child process.
1.35 benno 231: <li>Restricted <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmm.4">vmm(4)</a>
232: exposed cpuid extended feature flags.
233: <li>Adjusted <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmd.8">vmd(8)</a> error
234: paths to avoid removal of configuration-defined (known) VMs on error.
1.13 benno 235: <li>Stopped being paranoid about hypervisor correct PKU handling.<br>
236: Added saving and restoring guest PKRU to <a
237: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmm.4">vmm(4)</a>. Expose the PKU cpuid
238: bit to the guest if in use on the host.
1.35 benno 239: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmd.8">vmd(8)</a> scan the
240: PCI bus to determine bootorder strings.

1.13 benno 252: <li>Added <a
253: href="https://man.openbsd.org/lastcomm.1">lastcomm(1)</a> reporting
254: for process kills due to <a
255: href="https://man.openbsd.org/execve.2">execve(2)</a> from non-pinned
1.46 namn 256: syscall address.
1.1 benno 257: </ul>

1.46 namn 705: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/softraid.4">softraid(4)</a> keydisks.
1.17 kn 706: <li>Fixed passing explicit stages files to
707: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/installboot.8">installboot(8)</a>.
1.38 benno 708: <!-- architecture specific -->
1.22 benno 709: <li>Added <a
710: href="https://man.openbsd.org/mount_nfs.8">mount_nfs(8)</a> to the
711: sparc64 installer, to fetch sets over NFS.
712: <li>Copy the apple-boot firmware to EFI system partition, enabling
713: automatic bootloader updates on Apple Silicon computers.
1.18 kn 714: <li>Made the installer stop printing MD post installation instructions on upgrades.
715: <li>Made it possible to set keyboard layout(s) in arm64's installer.
716: <li>Added initial support in the installer for guided disk
717: encryption for amd64, i386, riscv64 and sparc64.
1.22 benno 718: <li>Added passing of boot device information from the bootloader to
719: the kernel on luna88k.
1.13 benno 720: <li>Switched luna88k boot loader to MI boot code.
1.18 kn 721: <li>Made the luna88k bootloader display a puffy boot logo.
1.13 benno 722: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ls.1">ls(1)</a> work
723: correctly in the luna88k bootloader.
724: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/time.1">time(1)</a> work
725: correctly in the luna88k bootloader.
726: <li>Removed dangerous user-settable "addr" variable from MI
727: bootloader, only compiling tty-related code on platforms where it
728: makes sense for the bootloader to control it.
729: <li>Added "machine poweroff" command on luna88k bootloader.
730: <li>Switched alpha to machine-independent boot blocks.
1.46 namn 731: <li>Switched all architectures' ramdisks (except alpha's and luna88k's) to use
1.17 kn 732: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/installboot.8">installboot(8)</a> <code>-p</code>.
1.18 kn 733: <li>Fixed ofwboot OpenFirmware <code>map</code> call to unbreak boot on some machines.
1.17 kn 734: <li>Reduced ofwboot.net size after libz update to unbreak netboot on some machines.
735: <li>Made riscv64 bootloader support boot from RAID 1C softraid volumes.
736: <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/installboot.8">installboot(8)</a> support
737: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/softraid.4">softraid(4)</a> on riscv64.
1.45 krw 738: <li>Stopped creating defunct Vax (ra, rx), HP-300 (hd) and Sparc (xy, xd)
739: devices in /dev.
1.1 benno 740: </ul>
741:
742: <li>Security improvements:
743: <ul>
1.46 namn 744: <li>Permissions (RWX, MAP_STACK, etc.) on address space regions can
1.23 benno 745: be made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/mimmutable.2">immutable</a>,
746: so that <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/mmap.2">mmap(2)</a>, <a
747: href="https://man.openbsd.org/mprotect.2">mprotect(2)</a> or <a
748: href="https://man.openbsd.org/munmap.2">munmap(2)</a> fail with EPERM.
749: Most of the program static address space is now automatically
750: immutable (main program, ld.so, main stack, load-time shared
751: libraries, and dlopen()'d libraries mapped without RTLD_NODELETE).
752: Programmers can request non-immutable static data using the
753: "openbsd.mutable" section, or manually bring immutability to (page
754: aligned heap objects) using <a
755: href="https://man.openbsd.org/mimmutable.2">mimmutable(2)</a>.
1.47 otto 756: The main internal data of <a
757: href="https://man.openbsd.org/malloc.3">malloc(3)</a>
758: is marked immutable.
1.23 benno 759: <li>Some architectures now have non-readable code ("xonly"), both from
760: the perspective of userland reading its own memory, or the kernel
761: trying to read memory in a system call. Many sloppy practices in
1.50 deraadt 762: userland code had to be repaired to allow this. The linker
763: (<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ld.lld.1">ld.lld(1)</a> or
764: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ld.bfd.1">ld.bfd(1)</a>) option
1.23 benno 765: --execute-only is enabled by default. In order of development: arm64,
1.46 namn 766: riscv64, hppa, amd64, powerpc64, powerpc (G5 only), octeon, and sparc64
767: (sun4u only; unfinished).
768: <li>These can still benefit from switching to --execute-only binaries if the
1.23 benno 769: cpu generates different traps for instruction-fetch versus data-fetch.
770: The VM system will not allow memory to be read before it was executed
771: which is valuable together with library relinking. Architectures
772: switched over include loongson.
773: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ld.so.1">ld.so(1)</a> and crt0
774: register the location of the <a
775: href="https://man.openbsd.org/execve.2">execve(2)</a> stub with the
776: kernel using pinsyscall(2), after which the kernel only accepts an
777: execve call from that specific location.
1.13 benno 778: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/execve.2">execve(2)</a>
779: violations of <a
780: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pinsyscall.2">pinsyscall(2)</a> policy
781: to the daily mail, available by setting rc.conf.local(5)
782: accounting=YES.
1.23 benno 783: <li>Added retguard (consistency-check the return address on the
784: stack) to amd64 syscalls.
785: <li>sshd random relinking at boot: Randomly relink and install <a
786: href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>, resulting
787: in a sshd binary with unknown address layout after every reboot.
1.13 benno 788: <li>Add another mitigation against classic BROP on systems without
789: execute-only mmu hardware-enforcement. A range-checking wrapper in
1.23 benno 790: front of <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/copyin.9">copyin(9)</a> and
1.33 tj 791: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/copyinstr.9">copyinstr(9)</a> ensures
1.23 benno 792: the userland source address doesn't overlap the main program text and
1.46 namn 793: other text segments, thereby making these address ranges unreadable to
1.23 benno 794: the kernel. No programs have been discovered which require reading
795: their own text segments with a system call.
1.22 benno 796: <li>On arm64, introduce mitigation of the Spectre-BHB (Branch
797: History Injection) CPU vulnerability by using core-specific trampoline
798: vectors.
1.23 benno 799: <li>Enabled the arm64 Data Independent Timing (DIT) feature in both the kernel and
800: userland on CPUs that support it to mitigate timing side-channel
1.22 benno 801: attacks.
1.1 benno 802: </ul>
803:
804: <li>Changes in the network stack:
805: <ul>
1.24 jsg 806: <li>Made /dev/pf a clonable device to better track kernel resources
1.22 benno 807: used by processes.
808: <li>Modified TCP receive buffer size auto-scaling to use the smoothed
809: RTT (SRTT) instead of the timestamp option, which improves performance
810: on high latency networks if the timestamp option isn't available.
1.24 jsg 811: <li>Relaxed the requirement for multicast support of interfaces for
1.22 benno 812: configuring IPv6. This allows non-multicast interfaces such as
813: point-to-point interfaces and the NBMA / point-to-multipoint
814: interfaces like mpe(4), mgre(4) and wg(4) to work with IPv6.
1.51 cheloha 815: <li>Measure the TCP_KEEPALIVE timeout with <a
1.22 benno 816: href="https://man.openbsd.org/getnsecruntime.9">getnsecruntime(9)</a>
1.54 ! jsg 817: instead of the system uptime.
1.51 cheloha 818: Prevents TCP connections from needlessly failing en masse after
819: waking a system from suspend.
1.13 benno 820: <li>Used stoeplitz (symmetric Toeplitz hash algorithm) to generate a
821: hash/flowid for <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a> state
822: keys. With this change, pf will hash traffic the same way that
823: hardware using a stoeplitz key will hash incoming traffic on rings.
1.27 jsg 824: stoeplitz is also used by the TCP stack to generate a flow id, which
1.13 benno 825: is used to pick which transmit ring is used on nics with multiple
1.46 namn 826: queues, too. Using the same algorithm throughout the stack encourages
1.13 benno 827: affinity of packets to rings and softnet threads the whole way
828: through.
829: <li>Prevented possible kernel crashes by dropping TCP packets with
830: destination port 0 in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pf.4">pf(4)</a>
831: and the stack.
1.33 tj 832: <li>Fixed an endian swap bug causing problems with <a
1.27 jsg 833: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vlan.4">vlan(4)</a> on <a
1.13 benno 834: href="https://man.openbsd.org/em.4">em(4)</a> sparc64 systems.
835: <li>Denied "pipex no" tunnel setting for <a
836: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pppx.4">pppx(4)</a> interfaces.
1.22 benno 837: <li>Fixed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfsync.4">pfsync(4)</a>
838: crashing on pf_state_key removal.
1.13 benno 839: <li>Fixed a panic in <a
1.46 namn 840: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pfsync.4">pfsync(4)</a> when there is
1.13 benno 841: no data ready for bulk transfer.
842: <li>Turned off TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) if interface is added
843: to layer 2 devices.
844: <li>Improved <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/vnet.4">vnet(4)</a>
845: to work better in busy conditions.
846: <li>Added a <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bpf.4">bpf(4)</a> timeout
847: (BIOCSWTIMEOUT) between capturing a packet and making the buffer
1.46 namn 848: readable, preventing, for example, <a
1.13 benno 849: href="https://man.openbsd.org/pflogd.8">pflogd(8)</a> waking every
850: half second even if there is nothing to read. By default this buffer
851: is infinite and must be filled to become readable.
852: <li>Avoided enabling TSO on interfaces which are already attached to a bridge.
853: </ul>
1.1 benno 854:
855: <li>Routing daemons and other userland network improvements:
856: <ul>
857: <li>IPsec support was improved:
858: <ul>
1.13 benno 859: <li>Added <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a>
860: support for configuring multiple name servers.
861: <li>Synced proc.c from <a
862: href="https://man.openbsd.org/vmd.8">vmd(8)</a> to <a
1.46 namn 863: href="https://man.openbsd.org/iked.8">iked(8)</a> to enable fork +
1.13 benno 864: exec for all processes. This gives each process a fresh and unique
865: address space to further improve randomization of ASLR and stack
866: protector.
867: </ul>
868: <li>In <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.8">bgpd(8)</a>, <a
869: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgpctl.8">bgpctl(8)</a> and <a
870: href="https://man.openbsd.org/bgplgd.8">bgplgd(8)</a>:
871: <ul>
1.46 namn 872: <li>Improved performance by optimising the output filters.
1.16 jsg 873: <li>Add Autonomous System Provider Authorization (ASPA) validation
1.13 benno 874: based on draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-verification-12
875: <li>Introduce avs (ASPA validation state) filter and bgpctl
1.46 namn 876: filter argument.
1.38 benno 877: <li>Add ASPA support for the RTR protocol based on
1.46 namn 878: draft-ietf-sidrops-8210bis-10.
1.38 benno 879: <li>Improve open policy (RFC 9234) support and enable the capability
1.46 namn 880: automatically if a role is specified for the peer.
881: <li>Introduce a per-neighbor 'role' configuration option to specify
1.13 benno 882: the session role used by ASPA verification and the open policy
883: capability. The 'announce policy' statement was simplified at
884: the same time.
1.38 benno 885: <li>Improve startup behaviour by introducing a small delay before
1.46 namn 886: opening the connection to a new peer.
1.38 benno 887: <li>Support for aspa-set table config which can be provided by
1.13 benno 888: <a
1.46 namn 889: href="https://man.openbsd.org/rpki-client.8">rpki-client(8)</a>.
1.38 benno 890: <li>Make it possible to filter the RIB by invalid and leaked prefixes
1.46 namn 891: in bgpctl and bgplgd.
1.38 benno 892: <li>Add OpenMetrics output to bgpctl for various BGP statistics and
1.46 namn 893: add /metrics endpoint to bgplgd.
1.38 benno 894: <li>Fix of incorrect length checks that allowed an out-of-bounds
1.13 benno 895: read in bgpd.
1.1 benno 896: </ul>
897: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rpki-client.8">rpki-client(8)</a> saw some changes:
898: <ul>
1.13 benno 899: <li>Add a new '-H' command line option to create a shortlist of
900: repositories to synchronize to. For example, when invoking
901: "rpki-client -H rpki.ripe.net -H chloe.sobornost.net", the utility
902: will not connect to any other hosts other than the two specified
903: through the -H option.
904: <li>Add support for validating Geofeed (RFC 9092) authenticators. To
905: see an example download https://sobornost.net/geofeed.csv and run
906: "rpki-client -f geofeed.csv"
907: <li>Add support for validating Trust Anchor Key (TAK) objects. TAK
908: objects can be used to produce new Trust Anchor Locators (TALs) signed
909: by and verified against the previous Trust Anchor. See
910: draft-ietf-sidrops-signed-tal for the full specification.
911: <li>Log lines related to RRDP/HTTPS connection problems now include the
912: IP address of the problematic endpoint (in brackets).
913: <li>Improve the error message when an invalid filename is encountered
914: in the rpkiManifest field in the Subject Access Information (SIA)
915: extension.
916: <li>Emit a warning when unexpected X.509 extensions are encountered.
917: <li>Restrict the ROA ipAddrBlocks field to only allow two
918: ROAIPAddressFamily structures (one per address family). See
919: draft-ietf-sidrops-rfc6482bis.
920: <li>Check the absence of the Path Length constraint in the Basic
921: Constraints extension.
922: <li>Restrict the SIA extension to only allow the signedObject and
923: rpkiNotify accessMethods.
924: <li>Check that the Signed Object access method is present in ROA, MFT,
925: ASPA, TAK, and GBR End-Entity certificates.
926: <li>In addition to the 'rsync://' scheme, also permit other schemes
927: (such as 'https://') in the SIA signedObject access method.
928: <li>Check that the KeyUsage extension is set to nothing but
929: digitalSignature on End-Entity certificates.
1.16 jsg 930: <li>Check that the KeyUsage extension is set to nothing but keyCertSign
1.13 benno 931: and CRLSign on CA certificates.
932: <li>Check that the ExtendedKeyUsage extension is absent on CA
933: certificates.
934: <li>Fix a bug in the handling of the port of http_proxy.
935: <li>The '-r' command line option has been deprecated.
936: <li>Filemode (-f) output is now presented as a text based table.
937: <li>The 'expires' key in the JSON/CSV/OpenBGPD output formats is now
938: calculated with more accuracy. The calculation takes into account the
939: nextUpdate value of all intermediate CRLs in the signature path
940: towards the trust anchor, in addition to the expiry moment of the
941: leaf-CRL and CAs.
942: <li>Handling of CRLs and Manifests in the face of inconsistent RRDP delta
943: publications has been improved. A copy of an alternative version of
944: the applicable CRL is kept in the staging area of the cache directory,
945: in order to increase the potential for establishing a complete
946: publication point, in cases where a single publication point update
947: was smeared across multiple RRDP delta files.
948: <li>The OpenBGPD configuration output now includes validated Autonomous
949: System Provider Authorization (ASPA) payloads as an 'aspa-set {}'
950: configuration block.
951: <li>When rpki-client is invoked with increased verbosity ('-v'), the
1.46 namn 952: current RRDP Serial and Session ID are shown to aid debugging.
1.13 benno 953: <li>Self-signed X.509 certificates (such as Trust Anchor certificates)
954: now are considered invalid if they contain an X.509
955: AuthorityInfoAccess extension.
956: <li>Signed Objects where the CMS signing-time attribute contains a
957: timestamp later then the X.509 certificate's notAfter timestamp are
958: considered invalid.
959: <li>Manifests where the CMS signing-time attribute contains a timestamp
960: later then the Manifest eContent nextUpdate timestamp are considered
961: invalid.
962: <li>Any objects whose CRL Distribution Points extension contains a
963: CRLIssuer, CRL Reasons, or nameRelativeToCRLIssuer field are
964: considered invalid in accordance with RFC 6487 section 4.8.6.
965: <li>For every X.509 certificate the SHA-1 of the Subject Public Key is
1.46 namn 966: calculated and compared to the Subject Key Identifier (SKI). If a
1.13 benno 967: mismatch is found the certificate is not trusted.
968: <li>Require the outside-TBS signature OID for every X.509 intermediate
969: CA certificate and CRL to be sha256WithRSAEncryption.
970: <li>Require the RSA key pair modulus and public exponent parameters to
971: strictly conform to the RFC 7935 profile.
972: <li>Ensure there is no trailing garbage present in Signed Objects beyond
973: the self-embedded length field.
974: <li>Require RRDP Session IDs to strictly be version 4 UUIDs.
975: <li>When decoding and validating an individual RPKI file using filemode
976: (rpki-client -f file), display the signature path towards the trust
1.46 namn 977: anchor and the timestamp when the signature path will expire.
1.13 benno 978: <li>When decoding and validating an individual RPKI file using filemode
1.46 namn 979: (rpki-client -f file), display the optional CMS signing-time,
980: non-optional X.509 notBefore timestamp and non-optional X.509
981: notAfter timestamp.
1.1 benno 982: </ul>
983:
1.42 tb 984: <li>Updated zlib to 1.2.13.
985:
986: <li>Fixed a long-standing bug in a libreadline header that broke the
987: interactive Python command line interface.
988:
1.22 benno 989: <li>Switched <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/tftpd.8">tftpd(8)</a> to
990: default to read-only unless -w is specified for write access (the
991: previous default).
992: <li>Stopped printing the prompt for non-interactive usage of <a
993: href="https://man.openbsd.org/tftp.1">tftp(1)</a>.
994: <li>Changed <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rarpd.8">rarpd(8)</a> to
995: only unveil /tftpboot if -t is specified.
996: <li>Added client certificate authentication and an optional SASL
997: EXTERNAL bind to <a
998: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ypldap.8">ypldap(8)</a>.
999: <li>Adjusted ipv6 address width to align the display columns better
1000: in the output of <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ndp.8">ndp(8)</a>,
1001: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/route.8">route(8)</a> and <a
1002: href="https://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a> as already
1003: available in <a
1004: href="https://man.openbsd.org/systat.1">systat(1)</a>'s netstat.
1005: <li>Used <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/stravis.3">stravis(3)</a> to
1006: sanitize redirect URIs from <a
1007: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ftp.1">ftp(1)</a> fetch before printing.
1.35 benno 1008:
1.22 benno 1009: <li>Prevent an <a
1.27 jsg 1010: href="https://man.openbsd.org/unwind.8">unwind(8)</a> crash when a TCP
1.22 benno 1011: query is larger than the length field indicated.
1012: <li>Preserve the original order of nameservers as configured via <a
1013: href="https://man.openbsd.org/resolv.conf.5">resolv.conf(5)</a> in <a
1014: href="https://man.openbsd.org/resolvd.8">resolvd(8)</a>.
1015: <li>Restrict the characters allowed in the hostname argument of <a
1016: href="https://man.openbsd.org/getaddrinfo.3">getaddrinfo(3)</a> to the
1.46 namn 1017: set [A-z0-9-_.]. Additionally, two consecutive dots ('.') are not
1.22 benno 1018: allowed nor can the string start with - or '.'. This removes
1019: characters like '$', '`', '\n' or '*' that can traverse the DNS
1.46 namn 1020: without problems but have special meaning as in a shell.
1.35 benno 1021: <li>Fixed a number of out of bounds reads in DNS response parsing of
1022: the async DNS resolver in libc.
1.22 benno 1023: <li>Added <a
1024: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a> -M (mac) to
1025: find the mac address on an interface and print it.
1.21 benno 1026: <li>Added support for configuring interfaces by lladdr to support
1.27 jsg 1027: interface configurations bound to a specific hardware device. The "if"
1.21 benno 1028: part of the <a
1029: href="https://man.openbsd.org/hostname.if.5">hostname.if(5)</a>
1030: configuration file can now be a MAC address.
1.22 benno 1031: <li>Limited display of wireguard peers by <a
1032: href="https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig.8">ifconfig(8)</a> to when
1033: either a wireguard interface is specified or the flag "-A" is used.
1034: <li>Implemented the RFC 8781 PREF64 router advertisement option in
1.46 namn 1035: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/rad.8">rad(8)</a> which is used to
1.22 benno 1036: communicate NAT64 prefixes to hosts.
1037: <li>Moved the documentation of flag mappings displayed by "route show" from the <a
1038: href="https://man.openbsd.org/netstat.1">netstat(1)</a> manpage to <a
1039: href="https://man.openbsd.org/route.8">route(8)</a>.
1040: <li>Improvements in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/nc.1">nc(1)</a>:

1214: </ul>
1215:
1.14 benno 1216: <li>OpenSSH 9.3 and OpenSSH 9.2<br>
1217: This release of OpenBSD includes the changes made to OpenSSH since release 9.1:
1.1 benno 1218: <ul>
1219: <li>Security
1220: <ul>
1.14 benno 1221: <li>ssh-add(1): when adding smartcard keys to ssh-agent(1) with the
1222: per-hop destination constraints (ssh-add -h ...) added in OpenSSH
1223: 8.9, a logic error prevented the constraints from being
1224: communicated to the agent. This resulted in the keys being added
1225: without constraints. The common cases of non-smartcard keys and
1226: keys without destination constraints are unaffected. This problem
1227: was reported by Luci Stanescu.
1228: <li>ssh(1): Portable OpenSSH provides an implementation of the
1229: getrrsetbyname(3) function if the standard library does not
1230: provide it, for use by the VerifyHostKeyDNS feature. A
1231: specifically crafted DNS response could cause this function to
1232: perform an out-of-bounds read of adjacent stack data, but this
1.46 namn 1233: condition does not appear to be exploitable beyond denial-of-service
1234: to the ssh(1) client.<br>
1.14 benno 1235: The getrrsetbyname(3) replacement is only included if the system's
1236: standard library lacks this function and portable OpenSSH was not
1237: compiled with the ldns library (--with-ldns). getrrsetbyname(3) is
1238: only invoked if using VerifyHostKeyDNS to fetch SSHFP records. This
1239: problem was found by the Coverity static analyzer.
1240: <li>sshd(8): fix a pre-authentication double-free memory fault
1241: introduced in OpenSSH 9.1. This is not believed to be exploitable,
1242: and it occurs in the unprivileged pre-auth process that is
1243: subject to chroot(2) and is further sandboxed on most major
1244: platforms.
1245: <li>ssh(8): in OpenSSH releases after 8.7, the PermitRemoteOpen option
1246: would ignore its first argument unless it was one of the special
1247: keywords "any" or "none", causing the permission list to fail open
1248: if only one permission was specified. bz3515
1249: <li>ssh(1): if the CanonicalizeHostname and CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs
1250: options were enabled, and the system/libc resolver did not check
1251: that names in DNS responses were valid, then use of these options
1252: could allow an attacker with control of DNS to include invalid
1253: characters (possibly including wildcards) in names added to
1254: known_hosts files when they were updated. These names would still
1255: have to match the CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs allow-list, so
1256: practical exploitation appears unlikely.
1257: </ul>
1.1 benno 1258: <li>Potentially-incompatible changes
1.14 benno 1259: <ul>
1260: <li>ssh(1): add a new EnableEscapeCommandline ssh_config(5) option that
1261: controls whether the client-side ~C escape sequence that provides a
1262: command-line is available. Among other things, the ~C command-line
1263: could be used to add additional port-forwards at runtime.<br>
1264: This option defaults to "no", disabling the ~C command-line that
1265: was previously enabled by default. Turning off the command-line
1266: allows platforms that support sandboxing of the ssh(1) client
1267: (currently only OpenBSD) to use a stricter default sandbox policy.
1268: </ul>
1269: <li>New features
1270: <ul>
1271: <li>ssh-keygen(1), ssh-keyscan(1): accept -Ohashalg=sha1|sha256 when
1272: outputting SSHFP fingerprints to allow algorithm selection. bz3493
1273: <li>sshd(8): add a `sshd -G` option that parses and prints the
1274: effective configuration without attempting to load private keys
1275: and perform other checks. This allows usage of the option before
1276: keys have been generated and for configuration evaluation and
1277: verification by unprivileged users.
1278: <li>sshd(8): add support for channel inactivity timeouts via a new
1279: sshd_config(5) ChannelTimeout directive. This allows channels that
1280: have not seen traffic in a configurable interval to be
1281: automatically closed. Different timeouts may be applied to session,
1282: X11, agent and TCP forwarding channels.
1283: <li>sshd(8): add a sshd_config UnusedConnectionTimeout option to
1284: terminate client connections that have no open channels for a
1285: length of time. This complements the ChannelTimeout option above.
1286: <li>sshd(8): add a -V (version) option to sshd like the ssh client has.
1287: <li>ssh(1): add a "Host" line to the output of ssh -G showing the
1288: original hostname argument. bz3343
1289: <li>scp(1), sftp(1): add a -X option to both scp(1) and sftp(1) to
1290: allow control over some SFTP protocol parameters: the copy buffer
1291: length and the number of in-flight requests, both of which are used
1292: during upload/download. Previously these could be controlled in
1293: sftp(1) only. This makes them available in both SFTP protocol
1294: clients using the same option character sequence.
1295: <li>ssh-keyscan(1): allow scanning of complete CIDR address ranges,
1296: e.g. "ssh-keyscan 192.168.0.0/24". If a CIDR range is passed, then
1297: it will be expanded to all possible addresses in the range
1298: including the all-0s and all-1s addresses. bz#976
1299: <li>ssh(1): support dynamic remote port forwarding in escape
1300: command-line's -R processing. bz#3499
1301: </ul>
1.1 benno 1302: <li>Bugfixes
1.14 benno 1303: <ul>
1304: <li>scp(1), sftp(1): fix progressmeter corruption on wide displays;
1305: bz3534
1306: <li>ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): use RSA/SHA256 when testing usability
1307: of private keys as some systems are starting to disable RSA/SHA1
1308: in libcrypto.
1309: <li>sftp-server(8): fix a memory leak. GHPR363
1.16 jsg 1310: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-keyscan(1): remove vestigial protocol
1.14 benno 1311: compatibility code and simplify what's left.
1312: <li>Fix a number of low-impact Coverity static analysis findings.
1313: These include several reported via bz2687
1314: <li>ssh_config(5), sshd_config(5): mention that some options are not
1315: first-match-wins.
1316: <li>Rework logging for the regression tests. Regression tests will now
1317: capture separate logs for each ssh and sshd invocation in a test.
1318: <li>ssh(1): make `ssh -Q CASignatureAlgorithms` work as the manpage
1319: says it should; bz3532.
1320: <li>ssh(1): ensure that there is a terminating newline when adding a
1321: new entry to known_hosts; bz3529
1322: <li>ssh(1): when restoring non-blocking mode to stdio fds, restore
1323: exactly the flags that ssh started with and don't just clobber them
1324: with zero, as this could also remove the append flag from the set.
1325: bz3523
1326: <li>ssh(1): avoid printf("%s", NULL) if using UserKnownHostsFile=none
1327: and a hostkey in one of the system known hosts file changes.
1328: <li>scp(1): switch scp from using pipes to a socket-pair for
1329: communication with its ssh sub-processes, matching how sftp(1)
1330: operates.
1331: <li>sshd(8): clear signal mask early in main(); sshd may have been
1332: started with one or more signals masked (sigprocmask(2) is not
1333: cleared on fork/exec) and this could interfere with various things,
1334: e.g. the login grace timer. Execution environments that fail to
1335: clear the signal mask before running sshd are clearly broken, but
1336: apparently they do exist.
1337: <li>ssh(1): warn if no host keys for hostbased auth can be loaded.
1338: <li>sshd(8): Add server debugging for hostbased auth that is queued and
1339: sent to the client after successful authentication, but also logged
1340: to assist in diagnosis of HostbasedAuthentication problems. bz3507
1341: <li>ssh(1): document use of the IdentityFile option as being usable to
1342: list public keys as well as private keys. GHPR352
1343: <li>sshd(8): check for and disallow MaxStartups values less than or
1344: equal to zero during config parsing, rather than failing later at
1345: runtime. bz3489
1346: <li>ssh-keygen(1): fix parsing of hex cert expiry times specified on
1347: the command-line when acting as a CA.
1348: <li>scp(1): when scp(1) is using the SFTP protocol for transport (the
1349: default), better match scp/rcp's handling of globs that don't match
1350: the globbed characters but do match literally (e.g. trying to
1351: transfer a file named "foo.[1]"). Previously scp(1) in SFTP mode
1352: would not match these pathnames but legacy scp/rcp mode would.
1353: bz3488
1354: <li>ssh-agent(1): document the "-O no-restrict-websafe" command-line
1355: option.
1356: <li>ssh(1): honour user's umask(2) if it is more restrictive then the
1357: ssh default (022).

1650: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
1651: <p>
1652: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
1653: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1654: which are in a separate archive.
1655: To extract:
1656: <blockquote><pre>
1657: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
1658: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1659: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
1660: </pre></blockquote>
1661: <p>
1662: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
1663: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1664: To extract:
1665: <blockquote><pre>
1666: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
1667: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1668: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
1669: </pre></blockquote>
1670: <p>
1671: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1672: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1673: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1674: Using these files
1675: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1676: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1686: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
1687: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
1688: </pre></blockquote>
1689: <p>
1690: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
1691: if you know nothing about ports
1692: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1693: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1694: OpenBSD ports system.
1695: <p>
1696: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1697: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1698: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1699: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
1700: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1701: with a command like:
1702: <blockquote><pre>
1703: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
1704: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_3</kbd>
1705: </pre></blockquote>
1706: <p>
1707: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1708: server.]
1709: <p>
1710: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1711: ports for the 7.3 release will be made available if problems arise.
1712: <p>
1713: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1714: would like to know more, the mailing list
1715: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
