1 | strongswan-4.1.9 |
2 | ---------------- | |
3 | ||
4 | - Default _updown scripts now dynamically inserts and removes ip6tables | |
5 | firewall rules if leftfirewall=yes is set in IPv6 connections. | |
6 | ||
6f274c2a MW |
7 | - Implemented RFC4478 repeated authentication to force EAP/Virtual-IP clients |
8 | to reestablish an IKE_SA within a given timeframe. | |
9 | ||
10 | - strongSwan Manager supports configuration listing, initiation and termination | |
11 | of IKE and CHILD_SAs. | |
12 | ||
13 | - Fixes and improvements to multithreading code. | |
14 | ||

b82e8231 AS |
16 | strongswan-4.1.8 |
17 | ---------------- | |
18 | ||
5076770c | 19 | - Removed recursive pthread mutexes since uClibc doesn't support them. |
b82e8231 AS |

a4a3632c AS |
22 | strongswan-4.1.7 |
23 | ---------------- | |
24 | ||
25 | - In NAT traversal situations and multiple queued Quick Modes, | |
26 | those pending connections inserted by auto=start after the | |
27 | port floating from 500 to 4500 were erronously deleted. | |
28 | ||
6e193274 | 29 | - Added a "forceencaps" connection parameter to enforce UDP encapsulation |
078b6008 | 30 | to surmount restrictive firewalls. NAT detection payloads are faked to |
6e193274 MW |
31 | simulate a NAT situation and trick the other peer into NAT mode (IKEv2 only). |
32 | ||
33 | - Preview of strongSwan Manager, a web based configuration and monitoring | |
34 | application. It uses a new XML control interface to query the IKEv2 daemon | |
35 | (see http://trac.strongswan.org/wiki/Manager). | |
36 | ||
37 | - Experimental SQLite configuration backend which will provide the configuration | |
38 | interface for strongSwan Manager in future releases. | |
39 | ||
40 | - Further improvements to MOBIKE support. | |
41 | ||

3dcf9dbd AS |
43 | strongswan-4.1.6 |
44 | ---------------- | |
45 | ||
3eac4dfd AS |
46 | - Since some third party IKEv2 implementations run into |
47 | problems with strongSwan announcing MOBIKE capability per | |
48 | default, MOBIKE can be disabled on a per-connection-basis | |
49 | using the mobike=no option. Whereas mobike=no disables the | |
50 | sending of the MOBIKE_SUPPORTED notification and the floating | |
51 | to UDP port 4500 with the IKE_AUTH request even if no NAT | |
52 | situation has been detected, strongSwan will still support | |
53 | MOBIKE acting as a responder. | |
54 | ||
55 | - the default ipsec routing table plus its corresponding priority | |
56 | used for inserting source routes has been changed from 100 to 220. | |
57 | It can be configured using the --with-ipsec-routing-table and | |
58 | --with-ipsec-routing-table-prio options. | |
59 | ||
bdc0b55b AS |
60 | - the --enable-integrity-test configure option tests the |
61 | integrity of the libstrongswan crypto code during the charon | |
62 | startup. | |
63 | ||
3eac4dfd AS |
64 | - the --disable-xauth-vid configure option disables the sending |
65 | of the XAUTH vendor ID. This can be used as a workaround when | |
66 | interoperating with some Windows VPN clients that get into | |
67 | trouble upon reception of an XAUTH VID without eXtended | |
68 | AUTHentication having been configured. | |
69 | ||
f872f9d1 AS |
70 | - ipsec stroke now supports the rereadsecrets, rereadaacerts, |
71 | rereadacerts, and listacerts options. | |
3dcf9dbd AS |
72 | |
73 | ||
7ad634a2 AS |
74 | strongswan-4.1.5 |
75 | ---------------- | |
76 | ||
77 | - If a DNS lookup failure occurs when resolving right=%<FQDN> | |
78 | or right=<FQDN> combined with rightallowany=yes then the | |
79 | connection is not updated by ipsec starter thus preventing | |
80 | the disruption of an active IPsec connection. Only if the DNS | |
81 | lookup successfully returns with a changed IP address the | |
82 | corresponding connection definition is updated. | |
83 | ||
8f5b363c MW |
84 | - Routes installed by the keying daemons are now in a separate |
85 | routing table with the ID 100 to avoid conflicts with the main | |
86 | table. Route lookup for IKEv2 traffic is done in userspace to ignore | |
87 | routes installed for IPsec, as IKE traffic shouldn't get encapsulated. | |
88 | ||
7ad634a2 | 89 | |
e93c68ba AS |
90 | strongswan-4.1.4 |
91 | ---------------- | |
92 | ||
93 | - The pluto IKEv1 daemon now exhibits the same behaviour as its | |
94 | IKEv2 companion charon by inserting an explicit route via the | |
95 | _updown script only if a sourceip exists. This is admissible | |
96 | since routing through the IPsec tunnel is handled automatically | |
b7af55ac AS |
97 | by NETKEY's IPsec policies. As a consequence the left|rightnexthop |
98 | parameter is not required any more. | |
078ce348 AS |
99 | |
100 | - The new IKEv1 parameter right|leftallowany parameters helps to handle | |
101 | the case where both peers possess dynamic IP addresses that are | |
102 | usually resolved using DynDNS or a similar service. The configuration | |
103 | ||
104 | right=peer.foo.bar | |
105 | rightallowany=yes | |
106 | ||
107 | can be used by the initiator to start up a connection to a peer | |
108 | by resolving peer.foo.bar into the currently allocated IP address. | |
109 | Thanks to the rightallowany flag the connection behaves later on | |
110 | as | |
111 | ||
112 | right=%any | |
113 | ||
114 | so that the peer can rekey the connection as an initiator when his | |
1fbdab85 AS |
115 | IP address changes. An alternative notation is |
116 | ||
117 | right=%peer.foo.bar | |
118 | ||
119 | which will implicitly set rightallowany=yes. | |
120 | ||
121 | - ipsec starter now fails more gracefully in the presence of parsing | |
122 | errors. Flawed ca and conn section are discarded and pluto is started | |
123 | if non-fatal errors only were encountered. If right=%peer.foo.bar | |
124 | cannot be resolved by DNS then right=%any will be used so that passive | |
125 | connections as a responder are still possible. | |
078ce348 | 126 | |
a0a0bdd7 AS |
127 | - The new pkcs11initargs parameter that can be placed in the |
128 | setup config section of /etc/ipsec.conf allows the definition | |
129 | of an argument string that is used with the PKCS#11 C_Initialize() | |
130 | function. This non-standard feature is required by the NSS softoken | |
131 | library. This patch was contributed by Robert Varga. | |
132 | ||
133 | - Fixed a bug in ipsec starter introduced by strongswan-2.8.5 | |
134 | which caused a segmentation fault in the presence of unknown | |
135 | or misspelt keywords in ipsec.conf. This bug fix was contributed | |
136 | by Robert Varga. | |
137 | ||
e3606f2b MW |
138 | - Partial support for MOBIKE in IKEv2. The initiator acts on interface/ |
139 | address configuration changes and updates IKE and IPsec SAs dynamically. | |
e93c68ba | 140 | |
06651827 | 141 | |
a3354a69 AS |
142 | strongswan-4.1.3 |
143 | ---------------- | |
144 | ||
41e16cf4 | 145 | - IKEv2 peer configuration selection now can be based on a given |
35d4809c AS |
146 | certification authority using the rightca= statement. |
147 | ||
148 | - IKEv2 authentication based on RSA signatures now can handle multiple | |
41e16cf4 AS |
149 | certificates issued for a given peer ID. This allows a smooth transition |
150 | in the case of a peer certificate renewal. | |
a3354a69 | 151 | |
998ca0ea MW |
152 | - IKEv2: Support for requesting a specific virtual IP using leftsourceip on the |
153 | client and returning requested virtual IPs using rightsourceip=%config | |
154 | on the server. If the server does not support configuration payloads, the | |
155 | client enforces its leftsourceip parameter. | |
156 | ||
157 | - The ./configure options --with-uid/--with-gid allow pluto and charon | |
158 | to drop their privileges to a minimum and change to an other UID/GID. This | |
159 | improves the systems security, as a possible intruder may only get the | |
160 | CAP_NET_ADMIN capability. | |
161 | ||
162 | - Further modularization of charon: Pluggable control interface and | |
163 | configuration backend modules provide extensibility. The control interface | |
164 | for stroke is included, and further interfaces using DBUS (NetworkManager) | |
165 | or XML are on the way. A backend for storing configurations in the daemon | |
166 | is provided and more advanced backends (using e.g. a database) are trivial | |
167 | to implement. | |
a3354a69 | 168 | |
41e16cf4 AS |
169 | - Fixed a compilation failure in libfreeswan occuring with Linux kernel |
170 | headers > 2.6.17. | |
171 | ||
172 | ||
8ea7b96f AS |
173 | strongswan-4.1.2 |
174 | ---------------- | |
175 | ||
e23d98a7 | 176 | - Support for an additional Diffie-Hellman exchange when creating/rekeying |
37fb0355 MW |
177 | a CHILD_SA in IKEv2 (PFS). PFS is enabled when the proposal contains a |
178 | DH group (e.g. "esp=aes128-sha1-modp1536"). Further, DH group negotiation | |
179 | is implemented properly for rekeying. | |
180 | ||
181 | - Support for the AES-XCBC-96 MAC algorithm for IPsec SAs when using IKEv2 | |
182 | (requires linux >= 2.6.20). It is enabled using e.g. "esp=aes256-aesxcbc". | |
183 | ||
d931f465 MW |
184 | - Working IPv4-in-IPv6 and IPv6-in-IPv4 tunnels for linux >= 2.6.21. |
185 | ||
37fb0355 MW |
186 | - Added support for EAP modules which do not establish an MSK. |
187 | ||
dfbe2a0f | 188 | - Removed the dependencies from the /usr/include/linux/ headers by |
9f78f957 | 189 | including xfrm.h, ipsec.h, and pfkeyv2.h in the distribution. |
dfbe2a0f | 190 | |
9f78f957 AS |
191 | - crlNumber is now listed by ipsec listcrls |
192 | ||
8ea7b96f AS |
193 | - The xauth_modules.verify_secret() function now passes the |
194 | connection name. | |
195 | ||
e23d98a7 | 196 | |
ed284399 MW |
197 | strongswan-4.1.1 |
198 | ---------------- | |
199 | ||
200 | - Server side cookie support. If to may IKE_SAs are in CONNECTING state, | |
201 | cookies are enabled and protect against DoS attacks with faked source | |
202 | addresses. Number of IKE_SAs in CONNECTING state is also limited per | |
203 | peer address to avoid resource exhaustion. IKE_SA_INIT messages are | |
204 | compared to properly detect retransmissions and incoming retransmits are | |
205 | detected even if the IKE_SA is blocked (e.g. doing OCSP fetches). | |
206 | ||
db88e37d AS |
207 | - The IKEv2 daemon charon now supports dynamic http- and ldap-based CRL |
208 | fetching enabled by crlcheckinterval > 0 and caching fetched CRLs | |
209 | enabled by cachecrls=yes. | |
210 | ||
3b4f7d92 AS |
211 | - Added the configuration options --enable-nat-transport which enables |
212 | the potentially insecure NAT traversal for IPsec transport mode and | |
213 | --disable-vendor-id which disables the sending of the strongSwan | |
214 | vendor ID. | |
215 | ||
216 | - Fixed a long-standing bug in the pluto IKEv1 daemon which caused | |
217 | a segmentation fault if a malformed payload was detected in the | |
218 | IKE MR2 message and pluto tried to send an encrypted notification | |
219 | message. | |
220 | ||
46b9ff68 AS |
221 | - Added the NATT_IETF_02_N Vendor ID in order to support IKEv1 connections |
222 | with Windows 2003 Server which uses a wrong VID hash. | |
223 | ||
3b4f7d92 | 224 | |
34bbd0c3 | 225 | strongswan-4.1.0 |
cd3958f8 AS |
226 | ---------------- |
227 | ||
228 | - Support of SHA2_384 hash function for protecting IKEv1 | |
229 | negotiations and support of SHA2 signatures in X.509 certificates. | |
230 | ||
231 | - Fixed a serious bug in the computation of the SHA2-512 HMAC | |
232 | function. Introduced automatic self-test of all IKEv1 hash | |
233 | and hmac functions during pluto startup. Failure of a self-test | |
234 | currently issues a warning only but does not exit pluto [yet]. | |
235 | ||
9b45443d MW |
236 | - Support for SHA2-256/384/512 PRF and HMAC functions in IKEv2. |
237 | ||
c5d0fbb6 AS |
238 | - Full support of CA information sections. ipsec listcainfos |
239 | now shows all collected crlDistributionPoints and OCSP | |
240 | accessLocations. | |
241 | ||
69ed04bf AS |
242 | - Support of the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) for IKEv2. |
243 | This feature requires the HTTP fetching capabilities of the libcurl | |
244 | library which must be enabled by setting the --enable-http configure | |
245 | option. | |
246 | ||
9b45443d MW |
247 | - Refactored core of the IKEv2 message processing code, allowing better |
248 | code reuse and separation. | |
249 | ||
250 | - Virtual IP support in IKEv2 using INTERNAL_IP4/6_ADDRESS configuration | |
251 | payload. Additionally, the INTERNAL_IP4/6_DNS attribute is interpreted | |
252 | by the requestor and installed in a resolv.conf file. | |
253 | ||
254 | - The IKEv2 daemon charon installs a route for each IPsec policy to use | |
255 | the correct source address even if an application does not explicitly | |
256 | specify it. | |
257 | ||
258 | - Integrated the EAP framework into charon which loads pluggable EAP library | |
259 | modules. The ipsec.conf parameter authby=eap initiates EAP authentication | |
260 | on the client side, while the "eap" parameter on the server side defines | |
261 | the EAP method to use for client authentication. | |
262 | A generic client side EAP-Identity module and an EAP-SIM authentication | |
263 | module using a third party card reader implementation are included. | |
264 | ||
265 | - Added client side support for cookies. | |
266 | ||
267 | - Integrated the fixes done at the IKEv2 interoperability bakeoff, including | |
268 | strict payload order, correct INVALID_KE_PAYLOAD rejection and other minor | |
269 | fixes to enhance interoperability with other implementations. | |

1c266d7d AS |
272 | strongswan-4.0.7 |
273 | ---------------- | |
274 | ||
6fdf5f44 AS |
275 | - strongSwan now interoperates with the NCP Secure Entry Client, |
276 | the Shrew Soft VPN Client, and the Cisco VPN client, doing both | |
277 | XAUTH and Mode Config. | |
1c266d7d AS |
278 | |
279 | - UNITY attributes are now recognized and UNITY_BANNER is set | |
280 | to a default string. | |
281 | ||
282 | ||
2b4405a3 MW |
283 | strongswan-4.0.6 |
284 | ---------------- | |
285 | ||
e38a15d4 AS |
286 | - IKEv1: Support for extended authentication (XAUTH) in combination |
287 | with ISAKMP Main Mode RSA or PSK authentication. Both client and | |
288 | server side were implemented. Handling of user credentials can | |
289 | be done by a run-time loadable XAUTH module. By default user | |
290 | credentials are stored in ipsec.secrets. | |
291 | ||
2b4405a3 MW |
292 | - IKEv2: Support for reauthentication when rekeying |
293 | ||
5903179b | 294 | - IKEv2: Support for transport mode |
af87afed | 295 | |
5903179b | 296 | - fixed a lot of bugs related to byte order |
2b4405a3 | 297 | |
5903179b | 298 | - various other bugfixes |
2b4405a3 MW |
299 | |
300 | ||
0cd645d2 AS |
301 | strongswan-4.0.5 |
302 | ---------------- | |
303 | ||
304 | - IKEv1: Implementation of ModeConfig push mode via the new connection | |
305 | keyword modeconfig=push allows interoperability with Cisco VPN gateways. | |
306 | ||
307 | - IKEv1: The command ipsec statusall now shows "DPD active" for all | |
308 | ISAKMP SAs that are under active Dead Peer Detection control. | |
309 | ||
310 | - IKEv2: Charon's logging and debugging framework has been completely rewritten. | |
311 | Instead of logger, special printf() functions are used to directly | |
312 | print objects like hosts (%H) identifications (%D), certificates (%Q), | |
313 | etc. The number of debugging levels have been reduced to: | |
03bf883d | 314 | |
0cd645d2 | 315 | 0 (audit), 1 (control), 2 (controlmore), 3 (raw), 4 (private) |
03bf883d | 316 | |
0cd645d2 AS |
317 | The debugging levels can either be specified statically in ipsec.conf as |
318 | ||
319 | config setup | |
03bf883d | 320 | charondebug="lib 1, cfg 3, net 2" |
0cd645d2 | 321 | |
03bf883d | 322 | or changed at runtime via stroke as |
0cd645d2 | 323 | |
03bf883d | 324 | ipsec stroke loglevel cfg 2 |
0cd645d2 AS |
325 | |
326 | ||
48dc3934 MW |
327 | strongswan-4.0.4 |
328 | ---------------- | |
329 | ||
330 | - Implemented full support for IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnels. | |
331 | ||
332 | - Added configuration options for dead peer detection in IKEv2. dpd_action | |
333 | types "clear", "hold" and "restart" are supported. The dpd_timeout | |
334 | value is not used, as the normal retransmission policy applies to | |
335 | detect dead peers. The dpd_delay parameter enables sending of empty | |
336 | informational message to detect dead peers in case of inactivity. | |
337 | ||
338 | - Added support for preshared keys in IKEv2. PSK keys configured in | |
339 | ipsec.secrets are loaded. The authby parameter specifies the authentication | |
340 | method to authentificate ourself, the other peer may use PSK or RSA. | |
341 | ||
342 | - Changed retransmission policy to respect the keyingtries parameter. | |
343 | ||
112ad7c3 AS |
344 | - Added private key decryption. PEM keys encrypted with AES-128/192/256 |
345 | or 3DES are supported. | |
48dc3934 MW |
346 | |
347 | - Implemented DES/3DES algorithms in libstrongswan. 3DES can be used to | |
348 | encrypt IKE traffic. | |
349 | ||
350 | - Implemented SHA-256/384/512 in libstrongswan, allows usage of certificates | |
351 | signed with such a hash algorithm. | |
352 | ||
353 | - Added initial support for updown scripts. The actions up-host/client and | |
354 | down-host/client are executed. The leftfirewall=yes parameter | |
355 | uses the default updown script to insert dynamic firewall rules, a custom | |
356 | updown script may be specified with the leftupdown parameter. | |
357 | ||
358 | ||
a1310b6b MW |
359 | strongswan-4.0.3 |
360 | ---------------- | |
361 | ||
362 | - Added support for the auto=route ipsec.conf parameter and the | |
363 | ipsec route/unroute commands for IKEv2. This allows to set up IKE_SAs and | |
364 | CHILD_SAs dynamically on demand when traffic is detected by the | |
365 | kernel. | |
366 | ||
367 | - Added support for rekeying IKE_SAs in IKEv2 using the ikelifetime parameter. | |
368 | As specified in IKEv2, no reauthentication is done (unlike in IKEv1), only | |
369 | new keys are generated using perfect forward secrecy. An optional flag | |
370 | which enforces reauthentication will be implemented later. | |
371 | ||
b425d998 AS |
372 | - "sha" and "sha1" are now treated as synonyms in the ike= and esp= |
373 | algorithm configuration statements. | |
374 | ||
375 | ||
bf4df11f AS |
376 | strongswan-4.0.2 |
377 | ---------------- | |
378 | ||
623d3dcf AS |
379 | - Full X.509 certificate trust chain verification has been implemented. |
380 | End entity certificates can be exchanged via CERT payloads. The current | |
381 | default is leftsendcert=always, since CERTREQ payloads are not supported | |
382 | yet. Optional CRLs must be imported locally into /etc/ipsec.d/crls. | |
efa40c11 MW |
383 | |
384 | - Added support for leftprotoport/rightprotoport parameters in IKEv2. IKEv2 | |
385 | would offer more possibilities for traffic selection, but the Linux kernel | |
386 | currently does not support it. That's why we stick with these simple | |
387 | ipsec.conf rules for now. | |
388 | ||
623d3dcf AS |
389 | - Added Dead Peer Detection (DPD) which checks liveliness of remote peer if no |
390 | IKE or ESP traffic is received. DPD is currently hardcoded (dpdaction=clear, | |
391 | dpddelay=60s). | |
392 | ||
efa40c11 MW |
393 | - Initial NAT traversal support in IKEv2. Charon includes NAT detection |
394 | notify payloads to detect NAT routers between the peers. It switches | |
395 | to port 4500, uses UDP encapsulated ESP packets, handles peer address | |
396 | changes gracefully and sends keep alive message periodically. | |
397 | ||
398 | - Reimplemented IKE_SA state machine for charon, which allows simultaneous | |
399 | rekeying, more shared code, cleaner design, proper retransmission | |
400 | and a more extensible code base. | |
401 | ||
cfd8b27f AS |
402 | - The mixed PSK/RSA roadwarrior detection capability introduced by the |
403 | strongswan-2.7.0 release necessitated the pre-parsing of the IKE proposal | |
404 | payloads by the responder right before any defined IKE Main Mode state had | |
405 | been established. Although any form of bad proposal syntax was being correctly | |
406 | detected by the payload parser, the subsequent error handler didn't check | |
407 | the state pointer before logging current state information, causing an | |
408 | immediate crash of the pluto keying daemon due to a NULL pointer. | |
409 | ||
bf4df11f | 410 | |
7e81e975 MW |
411 | strongswan-4.0.1 |
412 | ---------------- | |
413 | ||
c15c3d4b MW |
414 | - Added algorithm selection to charon: New default algorithms for |
415 | ike=aes128-sha-modp2048, as both daemons support it. The default | |
416 | for IPsec SAs is now esp=aes128-sha,3des-md5. charon handles | |
417 | the ike/esp parameter the same way as pluto. As this syntax does | |
418 | not allow specification of a pseudo random function, the same | |
419 | algorithm as for integrity is used (currently sha/md5). Supported | |
420 | algorithms for IKE: | |
421 | Encryption: aes128, aes192, aes256 | |
422 | Integrity/PRF: md5, sha (using hmac) | |
423 | DH-Groups: modp768, 1024, 1536, 2048, 4096, 8192 | |
424 | and for ESP: | |
425 | Encryption: aes128, aes192, aes256, 3des, blowfish128, | |
426 | blowfish192, blowfish256 | |
427 | Integrity: md5, sha1 | |
428 | More IKE encryption algorithms will come after porting libcrypto into | |
429 | libstrongswan. | |
f2c2d395 | 430 | |
c15c3d4b MW |
431 | - initial support for rekeying CHILD_SAs using IKEv2. Currently no |
432 | perfect forward secrecy is used. The rekeying parameters rekey, | |
22ff6f57 | 433 | rekeymargin, rekeyfuzz and keylife from ipsec.conf are now supported |
c15c3d4b MW |
434 | when using IKEv2. WARNING: charon currently is unable to handle |
435 | simultaneous rekeying. To avoid such a situation, use a large | |
436 | rekeyfuzz, or even better, set rekey=no on one peer. | |
22ff6f57 | 437 | |
7e81e975 MW |
438 | - support for host2host, net2net, host2net (roadwarrior) tunnels |
439 | using predefined RSA certificates (see uml scenarios for | |
440 | configuration examples). | |
441 | ||
f2c2d395 MW |
442 | - new build environment featuring autotools. Features such |
443 | as HTTP, LDAP and smartcard support may be enabled using | |
444 | the ./configure script. Changing install directories | |
445 | is possible, too. See ./configure --help for more details. | |
446 | ||
22ff6f57 MW |
447 | - better integration of charon with ipsec starter, which allows |
448 | (almost) transparent operation with both daemons. charon | |
449 | handles ipsec commands up, down, status, statusall, listall, | |
450 | listcerts and allows proper load, reload and delete of connections | |
451 | via ipsec starter. | |
452 | ||
b425d998 | 453 | |
9820c0e2 MW |
454 | strongswan-4.0.0 |
455 | ---------------- | |
456 | ||
457 | - initial support of the IKEv2 protocol. Connections in | |
458 | ipsec.conf designated by keyexchange=ikev2 are negotiated | |
459 | by the new IKEv2 charon keying daemon whereas those marked | |
460 | by keyexchange=ikev1 or the default keyexchange=ike are | |
461 | handled thy the IKEv1 pluto keying daemon. Currently only | |
462 | a limited subset of functions are available with IKEv2 | |
463 | (Default AES encryption, authentication based on locally | |
464 | imported X.509 certificates, unencrypted private RSA keys | |
465 | in PKCS#1 file format, limited functionality of the ipsec | |
466 | status command). | |
467 | ||
468 | ||
997358a6 MW |
469 | strongswan-2.7.0 |
470 | ---------------- | |
471 | ||
472 | - the dynamic iptables rules from the _updown_x509 template | |
473 | for KLIPS and the _updown_policy template for NETKEY have | |
474 | been merged into the default _updown script. The existing | |
475 | left|rightfirewall keyword causes the automatic insertion | |
476 | and deletion of ACCEPT rules for tunneled traffic upon | |
477 | the successful setup and teardown of an IPsec SA, respectively. | |
478 | left|rightfirwall can be used with KLIPS under any Linux 2.4 | |
479 | kernel or with NETKEY under a Linux kernel version >= 2.6.16 | |
480 | in conjuction with iptables >= 1.3.5. For NETKEY under a Linux | |
481 | kernel version < 2.6.16 which does not support IPsec policy | |
482 | matching yet, please continue to use a copy of the _updown_espmark | |
483 | template loaded via the left|rightupdown keyword. | |
484 | ||
485 | - a new left|righthostaccess keyword has been introduced which | |
486 | can be used in conjunction with left|rightfirewall and the | |
487 | default _updown script. By default leftfirewall=yes inserts | |
488 | a bi-directional iptables FORWARD rule for a local client network | |
489 | with a netmask different from 255.255.255.255 (single host). | |
490 | This does not allow to access the VPN gateway host via its | |
491 | internal network interface which is part of the client subnet | |
492 | because an iptables INPUT and OUTPUT rule would be required. | |
493 | lefthostaccess=yes will cause this additional ACCEPT rules to | |
494 | be inserted. | |
495 | ||
496 | - mixed PSK|RSA roadwarriors are now supported. The ISAKMP proposal | |
497 | payload is preparsed in order to find out whether the roadwarrior | |
498 | requests PSK or RSA so that a matching connection candidate can | |
499 | be found. | |
500 | ||
501 | ||
502 | strongswan-2.6.4 | |
503 | ---------------- | |
504 | ||
505 | - the new _updown_policy template allows ipsec policy based | |
506 | iptables firewall rules. Required are iptables version | |
507 | >= 1.3.5 and linux kernel >= 2.6.16. This script obsoletes | |
508 | the _updown_espmark template, so that no INPUT mangle rules | |
509 | are required any more. | |
510 | ||
511 | - added support of DPD restart mode | |
512 | ||
513 | - ipsec starter now allows the use of wildcards in include | |
514 | statements as e.g. in "include /etc/my_ipsec/*.conf". | |
515 | Patch courtesy of Matthias Haas. | |
516 | ||
517 | - the Netscape OID 'employeeNumber' is now recognized and can be | |
518 | used as a Relative Distinguished Name in certificates. | |
519 | ||
520 | ||
521 | strongswan-2.6.3 | |
522 | ---------------- | |
523 | ||
524 | - /etc/init.d/ipsec or /etc/rc.d/ipsec is now a copy of the ipsec | |
525 | command and not of ipsec setup any more. | |
526 | ||
527 | - ipsec starter now supports AH authentication in conjunction with | |
528 | ESP encryption. AH authentication is configured in ipsec.conf | |
529 | via the auth=ah parameter. | |
530 | ||
531 | - The command ipsec scencrypt|scdecrypt <args> is now an alias for | |
532 | ipsec whack --scencrypt|scdecrypt <args>. | |
533 | ||
534 | - get_sa_info() now determines for the native netkey IPsec stack | |
535 | the exact time of the last use of an active eroute. This information | |
536 | is used by the Dead Peer Detection algorithm and is also displayed by | |
537 | the ipsec status command. | |
538 | ||
539 | ||
540 | strongswan-2.6.2 | |
541 | ---------------- | |
542 | ||
543 | - running under the native Linux 2.6 IPsec stack, the function | |
544 | get_sa_info() is called by ipsec auto --status to display the current | |
545 | number of transmitted bytes per IPsec SA. | |
546 | ||
547 | - get_sa_info() is also used by the Dead Peer Detection process to detect | |
548 | recent ESP activity. If ESP traffic was received from the peer within | |
549 | the last dpd_delay interval then no R_Y_THERE notification must be sent. | |
550 | ||
551 | - strongSwan now supports the Relative Distinguished Name "unstructuredName" | |
552 | in ID_DER_ASN1_DN identities. The following notations are possible: | |
553 | ||
554 | rightid="unstructuredName=John Doe" | |
555 | rightid="UN=John Doe" | |
556 | ||
557 | - fixed a long-standing bug which caused PSK-based roadwarrior connections | |
558 | to segfault in the function id.c:same_id() called by keys.c:get_secret() | |
559 | if an FQDN, USER_FQDN, or Key ID was defined, as in the following example. | |
560 | ||
561 | conn rw | |
562 | right=%any | |
563 | rightid=@foo.bar | |
564 | authby=secret | |
565 | ||
566 | - the ipsec command now supports most ipsec auto commands (e.g. ipsec listall). | |
567 | ||
568 | - ipsec starter didn't set host_addr and client.addr ports in whack msg. | |
569 | ||
570 | - in order to guarantee backwards-compatibility with the script-based | |
571 | auto function (e.g. auto --replace), the ipsec starter scripts stores | |
572 | the defaultroute information in the temporary file /var/run/ipsec.info. | |
573 | ||
574 | - The compile-time option USE_XAUTH_VID enables the sending of the XAUTH | |
575 | Vendor ID which is expected by Cisco PIX 7 boxes that act as IKE Mode Config | |
576 | servers. | |
577 | ||
578 | - the ipsec starter now also recognizes the parameters authby=never and | |
579 | type=passthrough|pass|drop|reject. | |
580 | ||
581 | ||
582 | strongswan-2.6.1 | |
583 | ---------------- | |
584 | ||
585 | - ipsec starter now supports the also parameter which allows | |
586 | a modular structure of the connection definitions. Thus | |
587 | "ipsec start" is now ready to replace "ipsec setup". | |
588 | ||
589 | ||
590 | strongswan-2.6.0 | |
591 | ---------------- | |
592 | ||
593 | - Mathieu Lafon's popular ipsec starter tool has been added to the | |
594 | strongSwan distribution. Many thanks go to Stephan Scholz from astaro | |
595 | for his integration work. ipsec starter is a C program which is going | |
596 | to replace the various shell and awk starter scripts (setup, _plutoload, | |
597 | _plutostart, _realsetup, _startklips, _confread, and auto). Since | |
598 | ipsec.conf is now parsed only once, the starting of multiple tunnels is | |
599 | accelerated tremedously. | |
600 | ||
601 | - Added support of %defaultroute to the ipsec starter. If the IP address | |
602 | changes, a HUP signal to the ipsec starter will automatically | |
603 | reload pluto's connections. | |
604 | ||
605 | - moved most compile time configurations from pluto/Makefile to | |
606 | Makefile.inc by defining the options USE_LIBCURL, USE_LDAP, | |
607 | USE_SMARTCARD, and USE_NAT_TRAVERSAL_TRANSPORT_MODE. | |
608 | ||
609 | - removed the ipsec verify and ipsec newhostkey commands | |
610 | ||
611 | - fixed some 64-bit issues in formatted print statements | |
612 | ||
613 | - The scepclient functionality implementing the Simple Certificate | |
614 | Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) is nearly complete but hasn't been | |
615 | documented yet. | |
616 | ||
617 | ||
618 | strongswan-2.5.7 | |
619 | ---------------- | |
620 | ||
621 | - CA certicates are now automatically loaded from a smartcard | |
622 | or USB crypto token and appear in the ipsec auto --listcacerts | |
623 | listing. | |
624 | ||
625 | ||
626 | strongswan-2.5.6 | |
627 | ---------------- | |
628 | ||
629 | - when using "ipsec whack --scencrypt <data>" with a PKCS#11 | |
630 | library that does not support the C_Encrypt() Cryptoki | |
631 | function (e.g. OpenSC), the RSA encryption is done in | |
632 | software using the public key fetched from the smartcard. | |
633 | ||
634 | - The scepclient function now allows to define the | |
635 | validity of a self-signed certificate using the --days, | |
636 | --startdate, and --enddate options. The default validity | |
637 | has been changed from one year to five years. | |
638 | ||
639 | ||
640 | strongswan-2.5.5 | |
641 | ---------------- | |
642 | ||
643 | - the config setup parameter pkcs11proxy=yes opens pluto's PKCS#11 | |
644 | interface to other applications for RSA encryption and decryption | |
645 | via the whack interface. Notation: | |
646 | ||
647 | ipsec whack --scencrypt <data> | |
648 | [--inbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
649 | [--outbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
650 | [--keyid <keyid>] | |
651 | ||
652 | ipsec whack --scdecrypt <data> | |
653 | [--inbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
654 | [--outbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
655 | [--keyid <keyid>] | |
656 | ||
657 | The default setting for inbase and outbase is hex. | |
658 | ||
659 | The new proxy interface can be used for securing symmetric | |
660 | encryption keys required by the cryptoloop or dm-crypt | |
661 | disk encryption schemes, especially in the case when | |
662 | pkcs11keepstate=yes causes pluto to lock the pkcs11 slot | |
663 | permanently. | |
664 | ||
665 | - if the file /etc/ipsec.secrets is lacking during the startup of | |
666 | pluto then the root-readable file /etc/ipsec.d/private/myKey.der | |
667 | containing a 2048 bit RSA private key and a matching self-signed | |
668 | certificate stored in the file /etc/ipsec.d/certs/selfCert.der | |
669 | is automatically generated by calling the function | |
670 | ||
671 | ipsec scepclient --out pkcs1 --out cert-self | |
672 | ||
673 | scepclient was written by Jan Hutter and Martin Willi, students | |
674 | at the University of Applied Sciences in Rapperswil, Switzerland. | |
675 | ||
676 | ||
677 | strongswan-2.5.4 | |
678 | ---------------- | |
679 | ||
680 | - the current extension of the PKCS#7 framework introduced | |
681 | a parsing error in PKCS#7 wrapped X.509 certificates that are | |
682 | e.g. transmitted by Windows XP when multi-level CAs are used. | |
683 | the parsing syntax has been fixed. | |
684 | ||
685 | - added a patch by Gerald Richter which tolerates multiple occurrences | |
686 | of the ipsec0 interface when using KLIPS. | |
687 | ||
688 | ||
689 | strongswan-2.5.3 | |
690 | ---------------- | |
691 | ||
692 | - with gawk-3.1.4 the word "default2 has become a protected | |
693 | keyword for use in switch statements and cannot be used any | |
694 | more in the strongSwan scripts. This problem has been | |
695 | solved by renaming "default" to "defaults" and "setdefault" | |
696 | in the scripts _confread and auto, respectively. | |
697 | ||
698 | - introduced the parameter leftsendcert with the values | |
699 | ||
700 | always|yes (the default, always send a cert) | |
701 | ifasked (send the cert only upon a cert request) | |
702 | never|no (never send a cert, used for raw RSA keys and | |
703 | self-signed certs) | |
704 | ||
705 | - fixed the initialization of the ESP key length to a default of | |
706 | 128 bits in the case that the peer does not send a key length | |
707 | attribute for AES encryption. | |
708 | ||
709 | - applied Herbert Xu's uniqueIDs patch | |
710 | ||
711 | - applied Herbert Xu's CLOEXEC patches | |
712 | ||
713 | ||
714 | strongswan-2.5.2 | |
715 | ---------------- | |
716 | ||
717 | - CRLs can now be cached also in the case when the issuer's | |
718 | certificate does not contain a subjectKeyIdentifier field. | |
719 | In that case the subjectKeyIdentifier is computed by pluto as the | |
720 | 160 bit SHA-1 hash of the issuer's public key in compliance | |
721 | with section 4.2.1.2 of RFC 3280. | |
722 | ||
723 | - Fixed a bug introduced by strongswan-2.5.1 which eliminated | |
724 | not only multiple Quick Modes of a given connection but also | |
725 | multiple connections between two security gateways. | |
726 | ||
727 | ||
728 | strongswan-2.5.1 | |
729 | ---------------- | |
730 | ||
731 | - Under the native IPsec of the Linux 2.6 kernel, a %trap eroute | |
732 | installed either by setting auto=route in ipsec.conf or by | |
733 | a connection put into hold, generates an XFRM_AQUIRE event | |
734 | for each packet that wants to use the not-yet exisiting | |
735 | tunnel. Up to now each XFRM_AQUIRE event led to an entry in | |
736 | the Quick Mode queue, causing multiple IPsec SA to be | |
737 | established in rapid succession. Starting with strongswan-2.5.1 | |
738 | only a single IPsec SA is established per host-pair connection. | |
739 | ||
740 | - Right after loading the PKCS#11 module, all smartcard slots are | |
741 | searched for certificates. The result can be viewed using | |
742 | the command | |
743 | ||
744 | ipsec auto --listcards | |
745 | ||
746 | The certificate objects found in the slots are numbered | |
747 | starting with #1, #2, etc. This position number can be used to address | |
748 | certificates (leftcert=%smartcard) and keys (: PIN %smartcard) | |
749 | in ipsec.conf and ipsec.secrets, respectively: | |
750 | ||
751 | %smartcard (selects object #1) | |
752 | %smartcard#1 (selects object #1) | |
753 | %smartcard#3 (selects object #3) | |
754 | ||
755 | As an alternative the existing retrieval scheme can be used: | |
756 | ||
757 | %smartcard:45 (selects object with id=45) | |
758 | %smartcard0 (selects first object in slot 0) | |
759 | %smartcard4:45 (selects object in slot 4 with id=45) | |
760 | ||
761 | - Depending on the settings of CKA_SIGN and CKA_DECRYPT | |
762 | private key flags either C_Sign() or C_Decrypt() is used | |
763 | to generate a signature. | |
764 | ||
765 | - The output buffer length parameter siglen in C_Sign() | |
766 | is now initialized to the actual size of the output | |
767 | buffer prior to the function call. This fixes the | |
768 | CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL error that could occur when using | |
769 | the OpenSC PKCS#11 module. | |
770 | ||
771 | - Changed the initialization of the PKCS#11 CK_MECHANISM in | |
772 | C_SignInit() to mech = { CKM_RSA_PKCS, NULL_PTR, 0 }. | |
773 | ||
774 | - Refactored the RSA public/private key code and transferred it | |
775 | from keys.c to the new pkcs1.c file as a preparatory step | |
776 | towards the release of the SCEP client. | |
777 | ||
778 | ||
779 | strongswan-2.5.0 | |
780 | ---------------- | |
781 | ||
782 | - The loading of a PKCS#11 smartcard library module during | |
783 | runtime does not require OpenSC library functions any more | |
784 | because the corresponding code has been integrated into | |
785 | smartcard.c. Also the RSAREF pkcs11 header files have been | |
786 | included in a newly created pluto/rsaref directory so that | |
787 | no external include path has to be defined any longer. | |
788 | ||
789 | - A long-awaited feature has been implemented at last: | |
790 | The local caching of CRLs fetched via HTTP or LDAP, activated | |
791 | by the parameter cachecrls=yes in the config setup section | |
792 | of ipsec.conf. The dynamically fetched CRLs are stored under | |
793 | a unique file name containing the issuer's subjectKeyID | |
794 | in /etc/ipsec.d/crls. | |
795 | ||
796 | - Applied a one-line patch courtesy of Michael Richardson | |
797 | from the Openswan project which fixes the kernel-oops | |
798 | in KLIPS when an snmp daemon is running on the same box. | |
799 | ||
800 | ||
801 | strongswan-2.4.4 | |
802 | ---------------- | |
803 | ||
804 | - Eliminated null length CRL distribution point strings. | |
805 | ||
806 | - Fixed a trust path evaluation bug introduced with 2.4.3 | |
807 | ||
808 | ||
809 | strongswan-2.4.3 | |
810 | ---------------- | |
811 | ||
812 | - Improved the joint OCSP / CRL revocation policy. | |
813 | OCSP responses have precedence over CRL entries. | |
814 | ||
815 | - Introduced support of CRLv2 reason codes. | |
816 | ||
817 | - Fixed a bug with key-pad equipped readers which caused | |
818 | pluto to prompt for the pin via the console when the first | |
819 | occasion to enter the pin via the key-pad was missed. | |
820 | ||
821 | - When pluto is built with LDAP_V3 enabled, the library | |
822 | liblber required by newer versions of openldap is now | |
823 | included. | |
824 | ||
825 | ||
826 | strongswan-2.4.2 | |
827 | ---------------- | |
828 | ||
829 | - Added the _updown_espmark template which requires all | |
830 | incoming ESP traffic to be marked with a default mark | |
831 | value of 50. | |
832 | ||
833 | - Introduced the pkcs11keepstate parameter in the config setup | |
834 | section of ipsec.conf. With pkcs11keepstate=yes the PKCS#11 | |
835 | session and login states are kept as long as possible during | |
836 | the lifetime of pluto. This means that a PIN entry via a key | |
837 | pad has to be done only once. | |
838 | ||
839 | - Introduced the pkcs11module parameter in the config setup | |
840 | section of ipsec.conf which specifies the PKCS#11 module | |
841 | to be used with smart cards. Example: | |
842 | ||
843 | pkcs11module=/usr/lib/pkcs11/opensc-pkcs11.lo | |
844 | ||
845 | - Added support of smartcard readers equipped with a PIN pad. | |
846 | ||
847 | - Added patch by Jay Pfeifer which detects when netkey | |
848 | modules have been statically built into the Linux 2.6 kernel. | |
849 | ||
850 | - Added two patches by Herbert Xu. The first uses ip xfrm | |
851 | instead of setkey to flush the IPsec policy database. The | |
852 | second sets the optional flag in inbound IPComp SAs only. | |
853 | ||
854 | - Applied Ulrich Weber's patch which fixes an interoperability | |
855 | problem between native IPsec and KLIPS systems caused by | |
856 | setting the replay window to 32 instead of 0 for ipcomp. | |
857 | ||
858 | ||
859 | strongswan-2.4.1 | |
860 | ---------------- | |
861 | ||
862 | - Fixed a bug which caused an unwanted Mode Config request | |
863 | to be initiated in the case where "right" was used to denote | |
864 | the local side in ipsec.conf and "left" the remote side, | |
865 | contrary to the recommendation that "right" be remote and | |
866 | "left" be"local". | |
867 | ||
868 | ||
869 | strongswan-2.4.0a | |
870 | ----------------- | |
871 | ||
872 | - updated Vendor ID to strongSwan-2.4.0 | |
873 | ||
874 | - updated copyright statement to include David Buechi and | |
875 | Michael Meier | |
876 | ||
877 | ||
878 | strongswan-2.4.0 | |
879 | ---------------- | |
880 | ||
881 | - strongSwan now communicates with attached smartcards and | |
882 | USB crypto tokens via the standardized PKCS #11 interface. | |
883 | By default the OpenSC library from www.opensc.org is used | |
884 | but any other PKCS#11 library could be dynamically linked. | |
885 | strongSwan's PKCS#11 API was implemented by David Buechi | |
886 | and Michael Meier, both graduates of the Zurich University | |
887 | of Applied Sciences in Winterthur, Switzerland. | |
888 | ||
889 | - When a %trap eroute is triggered by an outgoing IP packet | |
890 | then the native IPsec stack of the Linux 2.6 kernel [often/ | |
891 | always?] returns an XFRM_ACQUIRE message with an undefined | |
892 | protocol family field and the connection setup fails. | |
893 | As a workaround IPv4 (AF_INET) is now assumed. | |
894 | ||
895 | - the results of the UML test scenarios are now enhanced | |
896 | with block diagrams of the virtual network topology used | |
897 | in a particular test. | |
898 | ||
899 | ||
900 | strongswan-2.3.2 | |
901 | ---------------- | |
902 | ||
903 | - fixed IV used to decrypt informational messages. | |
904 | This bug was introduced with Mode Config functionality. | |
905 | ||
906 | - fixed NCP Vendor ID. | |
907 | ||
908 | - undid one of Ulrich Weber's maximum udp size patches | |
909 | because it caused a segmentation fault with NAT-ed | |
910 | Delete SA messages. | |
911 | ||
912 | - added UML scenarios wildcards and attr-cert which | |
913 | demonstrate the implementation of IPsec policies based | |
914 | on wildcard parameters contained in Distinguished Names and | |
915 | on X.509 attribute certificates, respectively. | |
916 | ||
917 | ||
918 | strongswan-2.3.1 | |
919 | ---------------- | |
920 | ||
921 | - Added basic Mode Config functionality | |
922 | ||
923 | - Added Mathieu Lafon's patch which upgrades the status of | |
924 | the NAT-Traversal implementation to RFC 3947. | |
925 | ||
926 | - The _startklips script now also loads the xfrm4_tunnel | |
927 | module. | |
928 | ||
929 | - Added Ulrich Weber's netlink replay window size and | |
930 | maximum udp size patches. | |
931 | ||
932 | - UML testing now uses the Linux 2.6.10 UML kernel by default. | |
933 | ||
934 | ||
935 | strongswan-2.3.0 | |
936 | ---------------- | |
937 | ||
938 | - Eric Marchionni and Patrik Rayo, both recent graduates from | |
939 | the Zuercher Hochschule Winterthur in Switzerland, created a | |
940 | User-Mode-Linux test setup for strongSwan. For more details | |
941 | please read the INSTALL and README documents in the testing | |
942 | subdirectory. | |
943 | ||
944 | - Full support of group attributes based on X.509 attribute | |
945 | certificates. Attribute certificates can be generated | |
946 | using the openac facility. For more details see | |
947 | ||
948 | man ipsec_openac. | |
949 | ||
950 | The group attributes can be used in connection definitions | |
951 | in order to give IPsec access to specific user groups. | |
952 | This is done with the new parameter left|rightgroups as in | |
953 | ||
954 | rightgroups="Research, Sales" | |
955 | ||
956 | giving access to users possessing the group attributes | |
957 | Research or Sales, only. | |
958 | ||
959 | - In Quick Mode clients with subnet mask /32 are now | |
960 | coded as IP_V4_ADDRESS or IP_V6_ADDRESS. This should | |
961 | fix rekeying problems with the SafeNet/SoftRemote and NCP | |
962 | Secure Entry Clients. | |
963 | ||
964 | - Changed the defaults of the ikelifetime and keylife parameters | |
965 | to 3h and 1h, respectively. The maximum allowable values are | |
966 | now both set to 24 h. | |
967 | ||
968 | - Suppressed notification wars between two IPsec peers that | |
969 | could e.g. be triggered by incorrect ISAKMP encryption. | |
970 | ||
971 | - Public RSA keys can now have identical IDs if either the | |
972 | issuing CA or the serial number is different. The serial | |
973 | number of a certificate is now shown by the command | |
974 | ||
975 | ipsec auto --listpubkeys | |
976 | ||
977 | ||
978 | strongswan-2.2.2 | |
979 | ---------------- | |
980 | ||
981 | - Added Tuomo Soini's sourceip feature which allows a strongSwan | |
982 | roadwarrior to use a fixed Virtual IP (see README section 2.6) | |
983 | and reduces the well-known four tunnel case on VPN gateways to | |
984 | a single tunnel definition (see README section 2.4). | |
985 | ||
986 | - Fixed a bug occuring with NAT-Traversal enabled when the responder | |
987 | suddenly turns initiator and the initiator cannot find a matching | |
988 | connection because of the floated IKE port 4500. | |
989 | ||
990 | - Removed misleading ipsec verify command from barf. | |
991 | ||
992 | - Running under the native IP stack, ipsec --version now shows | |
993 | the Linux kernel version (courtesy to the Openswan project). | |
994 | ||
995 | ||
996 | strongswan-2.2.1 | |
997 | ---------------- | |
998 | ||
999 | - Introduced the ipsec auto --listalgs monitoring command which lists | |
1000 | all currently registered IKE and ESP algorithms. | |
1001 | ||
1002 | - Fixed a bug in the ESP algorithm selection occuring when the strict flag | |
1003 | is set and the first proposed transform does not match. | |
1004 | ||
1005 | - Fixed another deadlock in the use of the lock_certs_and_keys() mutex, | |
1006 | occuring when a smartcard is present. | |
1007 | ||
1008 | - Prevented that a superseded Phase1 state can trigger a DPD_TIMEOUT event. | |
1009 | ||
1010 | - Fixed the printing of the notification names (null) | |
1011 | ||
1012 | - Applied another of Herbert Xu's Netlink patches. | |
1013 | ||
1014 | ||
1015 | strongswan-2.2.0 | |
1016 | ---------------- | |
1017 | ||
1018 | - Support of Dead Peer Detection. The connection parameter | |
1019 | ||
1020 | dpdaction=clear|hold | |
1021 | ||
1022 | activates DPD for the given connection. | |
1023 | ||
1024 | - The default Opportunistic Encryption (OE) policy groups are not | |
1025 | automatically included anymore. Those wishing to activate OE can include | |
1026 | the policy group with the following statement in ipsec.conf: | |
1027 | ||
1028 | include /etc/ipsec.d/examples/oe.conf | |
1029 | ||
1030 | The default for [right|left]rsasigkey is now set to %cert. | |
1031 | ||
1032 | - strongSwan now has a Vendor ID of its own which can be activated | |
1033 | using the compile option VENDORID | |
1034 | ||
1035 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch which sets the compression algorithm correctly. | |
1036 | ||
1037 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch fixing an ESPINUDP problem | |
1038 | ||
1039 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch setting source/destination port numbers. | |
1040 | ||
1041 | - Reapplied one of Herbert Xu's NAT-Traversal patches which got | |
1042 | lost during the migration from SuperFreeS/WAN. | |
1043 | ||
1044 | - Fixed a deadlock in the use of the lock_certs_and_keys() mutex. | |
1045 | ||
1046 | - Fixed the unsharing of alg parameters when instantiating group | |
1047 | connection. | |
1048 | ||
1049 | ||
1050 | strongswan-2.1.5 | |
1051 | ---------------- | |
1052 | ||
1053 | - Thomas Walpuski made me aware of a potential DoS attack via | |
1054 | a PKCS#7-wrapped certificate bundle which could overwrite valid CA | |
1055 | certificates in Pluto's authority certificate store. This vulnerability | |
1056 | was fixed by establishing trust in CA candidate certificates up to a | |
1057 | trusted root CA prior to insertion into Pluto's chained list. | |
1058 | ||
1059 | - replaced the --assign option by the -v option in the auto awk script | |
1060 | in order to make it run with mawk under debian/woody. | |
1061 | ||
1062 | ||
1063 | strongswan-2.1.4 | |
1064 | ---------------- | |
1065 | ||
1066 | - Split of the status information between ipsec auto --status (concise) | |
1067 | and ipsec auto --statusall (verbose). Both commands can be used with | |
1068 | an optional connection selector: | |
1069 | ||
1070 | ipsec auto --status[all] <connection_name> | |
1071 | ||
1072 | - Added the description of X.509 related features to the ipsec_auto(8) | |
1073 | man page. | |
1074 | ||
1075 | - Hardened the ASN.1 parser in debug mode, especially the printing | |
1076 | of malformed distinguished names. | |
1077 | ||
1078 | - The size of an RSA public key received in a certificate is now restricted to | |
1079 | ||
1080 | 512 bits <= modulus length <= 8192 bits. | |
1081 | ||
1082 | - Fixed the debug mode enumeration. | |
1083 | ||
1084 | ||
1085 | strongswan-2.1.3 | |
1086 | ---------------- | |
1087 | ||
1088 | - Fixed another PKCS#7 vulnerability which could lead to an | |
1089 | endless loop while following the X.509 trust chain. | |
1090 | ||
1091 | ||
1092 | strongswan-2.1.2 | |
1093 | ---------------- | |
1094 | ||
1095 | - Fixed the PKCS#7 vulnerability discovered by Thomas Walpuski | |
1096 | that accepted end certificates having identical issuer and subject | |
1097 | distinguished names in a multi-tier X.509 trust chain. | |
1098 | ||
1099 | ||
1100 | strongswan-2.1.1 | |
1101 | ---------------- | |
1102 | ||
1103 | - Removed all remaining references to ipsec_netlink.h in KLIPS. | |
1104 | ||
1105 | ||
1106 | strongswan-2.1.0 | |
1107 | ---------------- | |
1108 | ||
1109 | - The new "ca" section allows to define the following parameters: | |
1110 | ||
1111 | ca kool | |
1112 | cacert=koolCA.pem # cacert of kool CA | |
1113 | ocspuri=http://ocsp.kool.net:8001 # ocsp server | |
1114 | ldapserver=ldap.kool.net # default ldap server | |
1115 | crluri=http://www.kool.net/kool.crl # crl distribution point | |
1116 | crluri2="ldap:///O=Kool, C= .." # crl distribution point #2 | |
1117 | auto=add # add, ignore | |
1118 | ||
1119 | The ca definitions can be monitored via the command | |
1120 | ||
1121 | ipsec auto --listcainfos | |
1122 | ||
1123 | - Fixed cosmetic corruption of /proc filesystem by integrating | |
1124 | D. Hugh Redelmeier's freeswan-2.06 kernel fixes. | |
1125 | ||
1126 | ||
1127 | strongswan-2.0.2 | |
1128 | ---------------- | |
1129 | ||
1130 | - Added support for the 818043 NAT-Traversal update of Microsoft's | |
1131 | Windows 2000/XP IPsec client which sends an ID_FQDN during Quick Mode. | |
1132 | ||
1133 | - A symbolic link to libcrypto is now added in the kernel sources | |
1134 | during kernel compilation | |
1135 | ||
1136 | - Fixed a couple of 64 bit issues (mostly casts to int). | |
1137 | Thanks to Ken Bantoft who checked my sources on a 64 bit platform. | |
1138 | ||
1139 | - Replaced s[n]printf() statements in the kernel by ipsec_snprintf(). | |
1140 | Credits go to D. Hugh Redelmeier, Michael Richardson, and Sam Sgro | |
1141 | of the FreeS/WAN team who solved this problem with the 2.4.25 kernel. | |
1142 | ||
1143 | ||
1144 | strongswan-2.0.1 | |
1145 | ---------------- | |
1146 | ||
1147 | - an empty ASN.1 SEQUENCE OF or SET OF object (e.g. a subjectAltName | |
1148 | certificate extension which contains no generalName item) can cause | |
1149 | a pluto crash. This bug has been fixed. Additionally the ASN.1 parser has | |
1150 | been hardened to make it more robust against malformed ASN.1 objects. | |
1151 | ||
1152 | - applied Herbert Xu's NAT-T patches which fixes NAT-T under the native | |
1153 | Linux 2.6 IPsec stack. | |
1154 | ||
1155 | ||
1156 | strongswan-2.0.0 | |
1157 | ---------------- | |
1158 | ||
1159 | - based on freeswan-2.04, x509-1.5.3, nat-0.6c, alg-0.8.1rc12 |
