1.23 claudio 451: <li>A 30%-50% performance improvement was achieved through libcrypto's
452: partial chains certificate validation feature. Already validated
453: non-inheriting CA certificates are now marked as trusted roots. This
454: way it can be ensured that a leaf's delegated resources are properly
455: covered, and at the same time most validation paths are
456: significantly shortened.
457: <li>Support for gzip and deflate HTTP Content-Encoding compression was
458: added. This allows web servers to send RRDP XML in compressed form,
459: saving around 50% of bandwidth.
460: <li>ASPA support was updated to draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-profile-16.
461: As part of supporting AFI-agnostic ASPAs, the JSON syntax for
462: Validated ASPA Payloads changed in both filemode and normal output.
463: <li>In filemode (-f option) the applicable manifests are now shown as
464: part of the signature path.
465: <li>A new -P option was added to manually specify a moment in time
466: to use when parsing the validity window of certificates. Useful
467: for regression testing. Default is invocation time of rpki-client.
468: <li>The -A option will now also exclude ASPA data from the JSON output.
469: <li>The synchronisation protocol used to sync the repository is now
470: included in the OpenMetrics output.
471: <li>Improved accounting by tracking objects both by repo and tal.
472: <li>Check whether products listed on a manifest were issued by the same
473: authority as the manifest itself.
474: <li>File modification timestamps of objects retrieved via RRDP are now
475: deterministically set to prepare the on-disk cache for seamless
476: failovers from RRDP to RSYNC.
477: <li>Improved detection of RRDP session desynchronization: a check was
478: added to compare whether the delta hashes associated to previously
479: seen serials are different in newly fetched notification files.
480: <li>Improved handling of RRDP deltas in which objects are published,
481: withdrawn, and published again.
482: <li>Disallow X.509 v2 issuer and subject unique identifiers in certs.
483: RPKI CAs will never issue certificates with V2 unique identifiers.
484: <li>A check to disallow duplicate X.509 certificate extensions was
485: added.
486: <li>A check to disallow empty sets of IP Addresses or AS numbers in RFC
487: 3779 extensions was added.
488: <li>A warning is printed when the CMS signing-time attribute in a Signed
489: Object is missing.
490: <li>Warnings about unrecoverable message digest mismatches now include
491: the manifestNumber to aid debugging the cause.
492: <li>A check was added to disallow multiple RRDP publish elements for the
493: same file in RRDP snapshots. If this error condition is encountered,
494: the RRDP transfer is failed and the RP falls back to rsync.
495: <li>A compliance check for the proper X.509 Certificate version and CRL
496: version was added.
497: <li>A compliance check was added to ensure CMS Signed Objects contain
498: SignedData, in accordance to RFC 6488 section 3 checklist item 1a.
499: <li>Compliance checks were added for the version, KeyUsage, and
500: ExtendedKeyUsage of EE certificates in Manifest, TAK, and GBR Signed
501: Objects.
502: <li>A CMS signing-time value being after the X.509 notAfter timestamp
503: was downgraded from an error to a warning.
504: <li>A bug was fixed in the handling of CA certificates which inherit IP

774: <ul>
1.12 dtucker 775: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/scp.1">scp(1)</a>:
776: fix scp in SFTP mode recursive upload and download of
777: directories that contain symlinks to other directories. In scp mode,
778: the links would be followed, but in SFTP mode they were not.
779: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh-keygen.1">ssh-keygen(1)</a>:
780: handle cr+lf (instead of just cr) line endings in
781: sshsig signature files.
782: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>:
783: interactive mode for ControlPersist sessions if they
784: originally requested a tty.
785: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>:
786: make PerSourceMaxStartups first-match-wins
787: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>:
788: limit artificial login delay to a reasonable maximum (5s)
789: and don't delay at all for the "none" authentication mechanism.
1.13 dtucker 790: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>:
791: Log errors in kex_exchange_identification() with level
1.12 dtucker 792: verbose instead of error to reduce preauth log spam. All of those
793: get logged with a more generic error message by sshpkt_fatal().
794: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>:
795: correct math for ClientAliveInterval that caused the probes
796: to be sent less frequently than configured.
1.13 dtucker 797: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh-agent.1">ssh-agent(1)</a>:

800: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>:

802: multiplexed connections, including ControlPersist.
803: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>:
804: make ConnectTimeout apply to multiplexing sockets and not

810: contains the required symbol before loading it.
811: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>:
812: fix AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand when AuthorizedKeysCommand
813: appears before it in sshd_config. Since OpenSSH 8.7 the
814: AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand directive was incorrectly ignored in
815: this situation.

1.16 jsg 819: remove vestigial support for KRL
1.13 dtucker 820: signatures When the KRL format was originally defined, it included
821: support for signing of KRL objects. However, the code to sign KRLs
1.16 jsg 822: and verify KRL signatures was never completed in OpenSSH. This
1.13 dtucker 823: release removes the partially-implemented code to verify KRLs.
824: All OpenSSH tools now ignore KRL_SECTION_SIGNATURE sections in
825: KRL files.
826: <li>All: fix a number of memory leaks and unreachable/harmless integer

832: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>:
833: better validate CASignatureAlgorithms in
834: ssh_config and sshd_config. Previously this directive would accept
835: certificate algorithm names, but these were unusable in practice as
836: OpenSSH does not support CA chains.
837: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>:
838: make <code>ssh -Q CASignatureAlgorithms</code> only list signature
839: algorithms that are valid for CA signing. Previous behaviour was
840: to list all signing algorithms, including certificate algorithms.
841: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh-keyscan.1">ssh-keyscan(1)</a>:
842: gracefully handle systems where rlimits or the

1.14 dtucker 849: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sftp.1">sftp(1)</a>:
1.13 dtucker 850: adjust ftruncate() logic to handle servers that
851: reorder requests. Previously, if the server reordered requests then
852: the resultant file would be erroneously truncated.
853: <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1">ssh(1)</a>:
854: don't incorrectly disable hostname canonicalization when

1152: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
1153: <p>
1154: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
1155: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
1156: which are in a separate archive.
1157: To extract:
1158: <blockquote><pre>
1159: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
1160: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1161: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
1162: </pre></blockquote>
1163: <p>
1164: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
1165: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
1166: To extract:
1167: <blockquote><pre>
1168: # <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
1169: # <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
1170: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
1171: </pre></blockquote>
1172: <p>
1173: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
1174: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
1175: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
1176: Using these files
1177: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
1178: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1184: <h3>Ports Tree</h3>
1185: <p>
1186: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
1187: <blockquote><pre>
1188: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
1189: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
1190: </pre></blockquote>
1191: <p>
1192: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
1193: if you know nothing about ports
1194: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1195: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1196: OpenBSD ports system.
1197: <p>
1198: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1199: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1200: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1201: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
1202: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1203: with a command like:
1204: <blockquote><pre>
1205: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
1.2 jsg 1206: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_4</kbd>
1.1 deraadt 1207: </pre></blockquote>
1208: <p>
1209: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1210: server.]
1211: <p>
1212: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1213: ports for the 7.4 release will be made available if problems arise.
1214: <p>
1215: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1216: would like to know more, the mailing list
1217: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
