Subject: [PATCH] openvpn: Update to version 2.5.6
Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2022 10:21:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220414082112.4096021-1-adolf.belka@ipfire.org> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 6194 bytes --]
- Update from version 2.5.4 to 2.5.6
- Update of rootfile not required
- No changes related to ciphers or options
- Source tarball changed from .xz to .gz as for version 2.5.6 the xz options was not
available. Raised on Openvpn forum but response was that they also didn't know why xz
option was not available but they thought it was not a big deal as the gz version is
only slightly larger.
- Changelog
Overview of changes in 2.5.6
User-visible Changes
update copyright year to 2022
New features
new plugin (sample-plugin/defer/multi-auth.c) to help testing with multiple
parallel plugins that succeed/fail in direct/deferred mode
various build improvements (github actions etc)
upgrade pkcs11-helper to release 1.28.4
Bugfixes
CVE-2022-0547 see
https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/SecurityAnnouncements
If openvpn is configured with multiple authentication plugins and more than
one plugin tries to do deferred authentication, the result is not
well-defined - creating a possible authentication bypass.
In this situation the server process will now abort itself with a clear log
message. Only one plugin is allowed to do deferred authentication.
Fix "--mtu-disc maybe|yes" on Linux
Due to configure/syshead.h/#ifdef confusion, the code in question was not
compiled-in since a long time. Fixed. Trac: #1452
Fix $common_name variable passed to scripts when username-as-common-name is
in effect.
This was not consistently set - sometimes, OpenVPN exported the username,
sometimes the common name from the client cert. Fixed. Trac: #1434
Fix potential memory leaks in add_route() and add_route_ipv6().
Apply connect-retry backoff only to one side of the connection in p2p mode.
Without that fix/enhancement, two sides could end up only sending packets
when the other end is not ready. Trac: #1010, #1384
remove unused sitnl.h file
clean up msvc build files, remove unused MSVC build .bat files
repair "--inactive" handling with a 'bytes' parameter larger than 2 Gbytes
due to integer overflow, this ended up being "0" on Linux, but on Windows
with MSVC it ends up being "always 2 Gbyte", both not doing what is
requested. Trac: #1448
repair handling of EC certificates on Windows with pkcs11-helper
(wrong compile-time defines for OpenSSL 1.1.1)
Documentation
documentation improvements related to DynDNS. Trac: #1417
clean up documentation for --proto and related options
rebuild rst docs if input files change (proper dependency handling)
Overview of changes in 2.5.5
User-visible Changes
SWEET32/64bit cipher deprecation change was postponed to 2.7
Windows: use network address for emulated DHCP server as default this
enables use of a /30 subnet, which is needed when connecting to OpenVPN Cloud.
require EC support in windows builds (this means it's no longer possible to
build a Windows OpenVPN binary with an OpenSSL lib without EC support)
New features
Windows build: use CFG and Spectre mitigations on MSVC builds
bring back OpenSSL config loading to Windows builds. OpenSSL config is
loaded from %installdir%\ssl\openssl.cnf (typically:
c:\program files\openvpn\ssl\openssl.cnf) if it exists.
This is important for some hardware tokens which need special OpenSSL
config for correct operation. Trac #1296
Bugfixes
Windows build: enable EKM
Windows build: improve various vcpkg related build issues
Windows build: fix regression related to non-writeable status files
(Trac #1430)
Windows build: fix regression that broke OpenSSL EC support
Windows build: fix "product version" display (2.5..4 -> 2.5.4)
Windows build: fix regression preventing use of PKCS12 files
improve "make check" to notice if "openvpn --show-cipher" crashes
improve argv unit tests
ensure unit tests work with mbedTLS builds without BF-CBC ciphers
include "--push-remove" in the output of "openvpn --help"
fix error in iptables syntax in example firewall.sh script
fix "resolvconf -p" invocation in example "up" script
fix "common_name" environment for script calls when
"--username-as-common-name" is in effect (Trac #1434)
Documentation
move "push-peer-info" documentation from "server options" to "client"
(where it belongs)
correct "foreign_option_{n}" typo in manpage
update IRC information in CONTRIBUTING.rst (libera.chat)
README.down-root: fix plugin module name
