1 | strongswan-4.0.2 |
2 | ---------------- | |
3 | ||
4 | - Added Dead Peer Detection (DPD) which checks liveliness of remote peer if no | |
5 | IKE or ESP traffic is received. DPD is currently hardcoded (dpdaction=clear, | |
6 | dpddelay=60s). | |
efa40c11 MW |
7 | |
8 | - Added support for leftprotoport/rightprotoport parameters in IKEv2. IKEv2 | |
9 | would offer more possibilities for traffic selection, but the Linux kernel | |
10 | currently does not support it. That's why we stick with these simple | |
11 | ipsec.conf rules for now. | |
12 | ||
13 | - Initial NAT traversal support in IKEv2. Charon includes NAT detection | |
14 | notify payloads to detect NAT routers between the peers. It switches | |
15 | to port 4500, uses UDP encapsulated ESP packets, handles peer address | |
16 | changes gracefully and sends keep alive message periodically. | |
17 | ||
18 | - Reimplemented IKE_SA state machine for charon, which allows simultaneous | |
19 | rekeying, more shared code, cleaner design, proper retransmission | |
20 | and a more extensible code base. | |
21 | ||
cfd8b27f AS |
22 | - The mixed PSK/RSA roadwarrior detection capability introduced by the |
23 | strongswan-2.7.0 release necessitated the pre-parsing of the IKE proposal | |
24 | payloads by the responder right before any defined IKE Main Mode state had | |
25 | been established. Although any form of bad proposal syntax was being correctly | |
26 | detected by the payload parser, the subsequent error handler didn't check | |
27 | the state pointer before logging current state information, causing an | |
28 | immediate crash of the pluto keying daemon due to a NULL pointer. | |

31 | strongswan-4.0.1 |
32 | ---------------- | |
33 | ||
c15c3d4b MW |
34 | - Added algorithm selection to charon: New default algorithms for |
35 | ike=aes128-sha-modp2048, as both daemons support it. The default | |
36 | for IPsec SAs is now esp=aes128-sha,3des-md5. charon handles | |
37 | the ike/esp parameter the same way as pluto. As this syntax does | |
38 | not allow specification of a pseudo random function, the same | |
39 | algorithm as for integrity is used (currently sha/md5). Supported | |
40 | algorithms for IKE: | |
41 | Encryption: aes128, aes192, aes256 | |
42 | Integrity/PRF: md5, sha (using hmac) | |
43 | DH-Groups: modp768, 1024, 1536, 2048, 4096, 8192 | |
44 | and for ESP: | |
45 | Encryption: aes128, aes192, aes256, 3des, blowfish128, | |
46 | blowfish192, blowfish256 | |
47 | Integrity: md5, sha1 | |
48 | More IKE encryption algorithms will come after porting libcrypto into | |
49 | libstrongswan. | |

c15c3d4b MW |
51 | - initial support for rekeying CHILD_SAs using IKEv2. Currently no |
52 | perfect forward secrecy is used. The rekeying parameters rekey, | |
22ff6f57 | 53 | rekeymargin, rekeyfuzz and keylife from ipsec.conf are now supported |
c15c3d4b MW |
54 | when using IKEv2. WARNING: charon currently is unable to handle |
55 | simultaneous rekeying. To avoid such a situation, use a large | |
56 | rekeyfuzz, or even better, set rekey=no on one peer. | |
22ff6f57 | 57 | |
7e81e975 MW |
58 | - support for host2host, net2net, host2net (roadwarrior) tunnels |
59 | using predefined RSA certificates (see uml scenarios for | |
60 | configuration examples). | |
61 | ||
f2c2d395 MW |
62 | - new build environment featuring autotools. Features such |
63 | as HTTP, LDAP and smartcard support may be enabled using | |
64 | the ./configure script. Changing install directories | |
65 | is possible, too. See ./configure --help for more details. | |
66 | ||
22ff6f57 MW |
67 | - better integration of charon with ipsec starter, which allows |
68 | (almost) transparent operation with both daemons. charon | |
69 | handles ipsec commands up, down, status, statusall, listall, | |
70 | listcerts and allows proper load, reload and delete of connections | |
71 | via ipsec starter. | |
72 | ||
9820c0e2 MW |
73 | strongswan-4.0.0 |
74 | ---------------- | |
75 | ||
76 | - initial support of the IKEv2 protocol. Connections in | |
77 | ipsec.conf designated by keyexchange=ikev2 are negotiated | |
78 | by the new IKEv2 charon keying daemon whereas those marked | |
79 | by keyexchange=ikev1 or the default keyexchange=ike are | |
80 | handled thy the IKEv1 pluto keying daemon. Currently only | |
81 | a limited subset of functions are available with IKEv2 | |
82 | (Default AES encryption, authentication based on locally | |
83 | imported X.509 certificates, unencrypted private RSA keys | |
84 | in PKCS#1 file format, limited functionality of the ipsec | |
85 | status command). | |
86 | ||
87 | ||
997358a6 MW |
88 | strongswan-2.7.0 |
89 | ---------------- | |
90 | ||
91 | - the dynamic iptables rules from the _updown_x509 template | |
92 | for KLIPS and the _updown_policy template for NETKEY have | |
93 | been merged into the default _updown script. The existing | |
94 | left|rightfirewall keyword causes the automatic insertion | |
95 | and deletion of ACCEPT rules for tunneled traffic upon | |
96 | the successful setup and teardown of an IPsec SA, respectively. | |
97 | left|rightfirwall can be used with KLIPS under any Linux 2.4 | |
98 | kernel or with NETKEY under a Linux kernel version >= 2.6.16 | |
99 | in conjuction with iptables >= 1.3.5. For NETKEY under a Linux | |
100 | kernel version < 2.6.16 which does not support IPsec policy | |
101 | matching yet, please continue to use a copy of the _updown_espmark | |
102 | template loaded via the left|rightupdown keyword. | |
103 | ||
104 | - a new left|righthostaccess keyword has been introduced which | |
105 | can be used in conjunction with left|rightfirewall and the | |
106 | default _updown script. By default leftfirewall=yes inserts | |
107 | a bi-directional iptables FORWARD rule for a local client network | |
108 | with a netmask different from 255.255.255.255 (single host). | |
109 | This does not allow to access the VPN gateway host via its | |
110 | internal network interface which is part of the client subnet | |
111 | because an iptables INPUT and OUTPUT rule would be required. | |
112 | lefthostaccess=yes will cause this additional ACCEPT rules to | |
113 | be inserted. | |
114 | ||
115 | - mixed PSK|RSA roadwarriors are now supported. The ISAKMP proposal | |
116 | payload is preparsed in order to find out whether the roadwarrior | |
117 | requests PSK or RSA so that a matching connection candidate can | |
118 | be found. | |
119 | ||
120 | ||
121 | strongswan-2.6.4 | |
122 | ---------------- | |
123 | ||
124 | - the new _updown_policy template allows ipsec policy based | |
125 | iptables firewall rules. Required are iptables version | |
126 | >= 1.3.5 and linux kernel >= 2.6.16. This script obsoletes | |
127 | the _updown_espmark template, so that no INPUT mangle rules | |
128 | are required any more. | |
129 | ||
130 | - added support of DPD restart mode | |
131 | ||
132 | - ipsec starter now allows the use of wildcards in include | |
133 | statements as e.g. in "include /etc/my_ipsec/*.conf". | |
134 | Patch courtesy of Matthias Haas. | |
135 | ||
136 | - the Netscape OID 'employeeNumber' is now recognized and can be | |
137 | used as a Relative Distinguished Name in certificates. | |
138 | ||
139 | ||
140 | strongswan-2.6.3 | |
141 | ---------------- | |
142 | ||
143 | - /etc/init.d/ipsec or /etc/rc.d/ipsec is now a copy of the ipsec | |
144 | command and not of ipsec setup any more. | |
145 | ||
146 | - ipsec starter now supports AH authentication in conjunction with | |
147 | ESP encryption. AH authentication is configured in ipsec.conf | |
148 | via the auth=ah parameter. | |
149 | ||
150 | - The command ipsec scencrypt|scdecrypt <args> is now an alias for | |
151 | ipsec whack --scencrypt|scdecrypt <args>. | |
152 | ||
153 | - get_sa_info() now determines for the native netkey IPsec stack | |
154 | the exact time of the last use of an active eroute. This information | |
155 | is used by the Dead Peer Detection algorithm and is also displayed by | |
156 | the ipsec status command. | |
157 | ||
158 | ||
159 | strongswan-2.6.2 | |
160 | ---------------- | |
161 | ||
162 | - running under the native Linux 2.6 IPsec stack, the function | |
163 | get_sa_info() is called by ipsec auto --status to display the current | |
164 | number of transmitted bytes per IPsec SA. | |
165 | ||
166 | - get_sa_info() is also used by the Dead Peer Detection process to detect | |
167 | recent ESP activity. If ESP traffic was received from the peer within | |
168 | the last dpd_delay interval then no R_Y_THERE notification must be sent. | |
169 | ||
170 | - strongSwan now supports the Relative Distinguished Name "unstructuredName" | |
171 | in ID_DER_ASN1_DN identities. The following notations are possible: | |
172 | ||
173 | rightid="unstructuredName=John Doe" | |
174 | rightid="UN=John Doe" | |
175 | ||
176 | - fixed a long-standing bug which caused PSK-based roadwarrior connections | |
177 | to segfault in the function id.c:same_id() called by keys.c:get_secret() | |
178 | if an FQDN, USER_FQDN, or Key ID was defined, as in the following example. | |
179 | ||
180 | conn rw | |
181 | right=%any | |
182 | rightid=@foo.bar | |
183 | authby=secret | |
184 | ||
185 | - the ipsec command now supports most ipsec auto commands (e.g. ipsec listall). | |
186 | ||
187 | - ipsec starter didn't set host_addr and client.addr ports in whack msg. | |
188 | ||
189 | - in order to guarantee backwards-compatibility with the script-based | |
190 | auto function (e.g. auto --replace), the ipsec starter scripts stores | |
191 | the defaultroute information in the temporary file /var/run/ipsec.info. | |
192 | ||
193 | - The compile-time option USE_XAUTH_VID enables the sending of the XAUTH | |
194 | Vendor ID which is expected by Cisco PIX 7 boxes that act as IKE Mode Config | |
195 | servers. | |
196 | ||
197 | - the ipsec starter now also recognizes the parameters authby=never and | |
198 | type=passthrough|pass|drop|reject. | |
199 | ||
200 | ||
201 | strongswan-2.6.1 | |
202 | ---------------- | |
203 | ||
204 | - ipsec starter now supports the also parameter which allows | |
205 | a modular structure of the connection definitions. Thus | |
206 | "ipsec start" is now ready to replace "ipsec setup". | |
207 | ||
208 | ||
209 | strongswan-2.6.0 | |
210 | ---------------- | |
211 | ||
212 | - Mathieu Lafon's popular ipsec starter tool has been added to the | |
213 | strongSwan distribution. Many thanks go to Stephan Scholz from astaro | |
214 | for his integration work. ipsec starter is a C program which is going | |
215 | to replace the various shell and awk starter scripts (setup, _plutoload, | |
216 | _plutostart, _realsetup, _startklips, _confread, and auto). Since | |
217 | ipsec.conf is now parsed only once, the starting of multiple tunnels is | |
218 | accelerated tremedously. | |
219 | ||
220 | - Added support of %defaultroute to the ipsec starter. If the IP address | |
221 | changes, a HUP signal to the ipsec starter will automatically | |
222 | reload pluto's connections. | |
223 | ||
224 | - moved most compile time configurations from pluto/Makefile to | |
225 | Makefile.inc by defining the options USE_LIBCURL, USE_LDAP, | |
226 | USE_SMARTCARD, and USE_NAT_TRAVERSAL_TRANSPORT_MODE. | |
227 | ||
228 | - removed the ipsec verify and ipsec newhostkey commands | |
229 | ||
230 | - fixed some 64-bit issues in formatted print statements | |
231 | ||
232 | - The scepclient functionality implementing the Simple Certificate | |
233 | Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) is nearly complete but hasn't been | |
234 | documented yet. | |
235 | ||
236 | ||
237 | strongswan-2.5.7 | |
238 | ---------------- | |
239 | ||
240 | - CA certicates are now automatically loaded from a smartcard | |
241 | or USB crypto token and appear in the ipsec auto --listcacerts | |
242 | listing. | |
243 | ||
244 | ||
245 | strongswan-2.5.6 | |
246 | ---------------- | |
247 | ||
248 | - when using "ipsec whack --scencrypt <data>" with a PKCS#11 | |
249 | library that does not support the C_Encrypt() Cryptoki | |
250 | function (e.g. OpenSC), the RSA encryption is done in | |
251 | software using the public key fetched from the smartcard. | |
252 | ||
253 | - The scepclient function now allows to define the | |
254 | validity of a self-signed certificate using the --days, | |
255 | --startdate, and --enddate options. The default validity | |
256 | has been changed from one year to five years. | |
257 | ||
258 | ||
259 | strongswan-2.5.5 | |
260 | ---------------- | |
261 | ||
262 | - the config setup parameter pkcs11proxy=yes opens pluto's PKCS#11 | |
263 | interface to other applications for RSA encryption and decryption | |
264 | via the whack interface. Notation: | |
265 | ||
266 | ipsec whack --scencrypt <data> | |
267 | [--inbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
268 | [--outbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
269 | [--keyid <keyid>] | |
270 | ||
271 | ipsec whack --scdecrypt <data> | |
272 | [--inbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
273 | [--outbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
274 | [--keyid <keyid>] | |
275 | ||
276 | The default setting for inbase and outbase is hex. | |
277 | ||
278 | The new proxy interface can be used for securing symmetric | |
279 | encryption keys required by the cryptoloop or dm-crypt | |
280 | disk encryption schemes, especially in the case when | |
281 | pkcs11keepstate=yes causes pluto to lock the pkcs11 slot | |
282 | permanently. | |
283 | ||
284 | - if the file /etc/ipsec.secrets is lacking during the startup of | |
285 | pluto then the root-readable file /etc/ipsec.d/private/myKey.der | |
286 | containing a 2048 bit RSA private key and a matching self-signed | |
287 | certificate stored in the file /etc/ipsec.d/certs/selfCert.der | |
288 | is automatically generated by calling the function | |
289 | ||
290 | ipsec scepclient --out pkcs1 --out cert-self | |
291 | ||
292 | scepclient was written by Jan Hutter and Martin Willi, students | |
293 | at the University of Applied Sciences in Rapperswil, Switzerland. | |
294 | ||
295 | ||
296 | strongswan-2.5.4 | |
297 | ---------------- | |
298 | ||
299 | - the current extension of the PKCS#7 framework introduced | |
300 | a parsing error in PKCS#7 wrapped X.509 certificates that are | |
301 | e.g. transmitted by Windows XP when multi-level CAs are used. | |
302 | the parsing syntax has been fixed. | |
303 | ||
304 | - added a patch by Gerald Richter which tolerates multiple occurrences | |
305 | of the ipsec0 interface when using KLIPS. | |
306 | ||
307 | ||
308 | strongswan-2.5.3 | |
309 | ---------------- | |
310 | ||
311 | - with gawk-3.1.4 the word "default2 has become a protected | |
312 | keyword for use in switch statements and cannot be used any | |
313 | more in the strongSwan scripts. This problem has been | |
314 | solved by renaming "default" to "defaults" and "setdefault" | |
315 | in the scripts _confread and auto, respectively. | |
316 | ||
317 | - introduced the parameter leftsendcert with the values | |
318 | ||
319 | always|yes (the default, always send a cert) | |
320 | ifasked (send the cert only upon a cert request) | |
321 | never|no (never send a cert, used for raw RSA keys and | |
322 | self-signed certs) | |
323 | ||
324 | - fixed the initialization of the ESP key length to a default of | |
325 | 128 bits in the case that the peer does not send a key length | |
326 | attribute for AES encryption. | |
327 | ||
328 | - applied Herbert Xu's uniqueIDs patch | |
329 | ||
330 | - applied Herbert Xu's CLOEXEC patches | |
331 | ||
332 | ||
333 | strongswan-2.5.2 | |
334 | ---------------- | |
335 | ||
336 | - CRLs can now be cached also in the case when the issuer's | |
337 | certificate does not contain a subjectKeyIdentifier field. | |
338 | In that case the subjectKeyIdentifier is computed by pluto as the | |
339 | 160 bit SHA-1 hash of the issuer's public key in compliance | |
340 | with section 4.2.1.2 of RFC 3280. | |
341 | ||
342 | - Fixed a bug introduced by strongswan-2.5.1 which eliminated | |
343 | not only multiple Quick Modes of a given connection but also | |
344 | multiple connections between two security gateways. | |
345 | ||
346 | ||
347 | strongswan-2.5.1 | |
348 | ---------------- | |
349 | ||
350 | - Under the native IPsec of the Linux 2.6 kernel, a %trap eroute | |
351 | installed either by setting auto=route in ipsec.conf or by | |
352 | a connection put into hold, generates an XFRM_AQUIRE event | |
353 | for each packet that wants to use the not-yet exisiting | |
354 | tunnel. Up to now each XFRM_AQUIRE event led to an entry in | |
355 | the Quick Mode queue, causing multiple IPsec SA to be | |
356 | established in rapid succession. Starting with strongswan-2.5.1 | |
357 | only a single IPsec SA is established per host-pair connection. | |
358 | ||
359 | - Right after loading the PKCS#11 module, all smartcard slots are | |
360 | searched for certificates. The result can be viewed using | |
361 | the command | |
362 | ||
363 | ipsec auto --listcards | |
364 | ||
365 | The certificate objects found in the slots are numbered | |
366 | starting with #1, #2, etc. This position number can be used to address | |
367 | certificates (leftcert=%smartcard) and keys (: PIN %smartcard) | |
368 | in ipsec.conf and ipsec.secrets, respectively: | |
369 | ||
370 | %smartcard (selects object #1) | |
371 | %smartcard#1 (selects object #1) | |
372 | %smartcard#3 (selects object #3) | |
373 | ||
374 | As an alternative the existing retrieval scheme can be used: | |
375 | ||
376 | %smartcard:45 (selects object with id=45) | |
377 | %smartcard0 (selects first object in slot 0) | |
378 | %smartcard4:45 (selects object in slot 4 with id=45) | |
379 | ||
380 | - Depending on the settings of CKA_SIGN and CKA_DECRYPT | |
381 | private key flags either C_Sign() or C_Decrypt() is used | |
382 | to generate a signature. | |
383 | ||
384 | - The output buffer length parameter siglen in C_Sign() | |
385 | is now initialized to the actual size of the output | |
386 | buffer prior to the function call. This fixes the | |
387 | CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL error that could occur when using | |
388 | the OpenSC PKCS#11 module. | |
389 | ||
390 | - Changed the initialization of the PKCS#11 CK_MECHANISM in | |
391 | C_SignInit() to mech = { CKM_RSA_PKCS, NULL_PTR, 0 }. | |
392 | ||
393 | - Refactored the RSA public/private key code and transferred it | |
394 | from keys.c to the new pkcs1.c file as a preparatory step | |
395 | towards the release of the SCEP client. | |
396 | ||
397 | ||
398 | strongswan-2.5.0 | |
399 | ---------------- | |
400 | ||
401 | - The loading of a PKCS#11 smartcard library module during | |
402 | runtime does not require OpenSC library functions any more | |
403 | because the corresponding code has been integrated into | |
404 | smartcard.c. Also the RSAREF pkcs11 header files have been | |
405 | included in a newly created pluto/rsaref directory so that | |
406 | no external include path has to be defined any longer. | |
407 | ||
408 | - A long-awaited feature has been implemented at last: | |
409 | The local caching of CRLs fetched via HTTP or LDAP, activated | |
410 | by the parameter cachecrls=yes in the config setup section | |
411 | of ipsec.conf. The dynamically fetched CRLs are stored under | |
412 | a unique file name containing the issuer's subjectKeyID | |
413 | in /etc/ipsec.d/crls. | |
414 | ||
415 | - Applied a one-line patch courtesy of Michael Richardson | |
416 | from the Openswan project which fixes the kernel-oops | |
417 | in KLIPS when an snmp daemon is running on the same box. | |
418 | ||
419 | ||
420 | strongswan-2.4.4 | |
421 | ---------------- | |
422 | ||
423 | - Eliminated null length CRL distribution point strings. | |
424 | ||
425 | - Fixed a trust path evaluation bug introduced with 2.4.3 | |
426 | ||
427 | ||
428 | strongswan-2.4.3 | |
429 | ---------------- | |
430 | ||
431 | - Improved the joint OCSP / CRL revocation policy. | |
432 | OCSP responses have precedence over CRL entries. | |
433 | ||
434 | - Introduced support of CRLv2 reason codes. | |
435 | ||
436 | - Fixed a bug with key-pad equipped readers which caused | |
437 | pluto to prompt for the pin via the console when the first | |
438 | occasion to enter the pin via the key-pad was missed. | |
439 | ||
440 | - When pluto is built with LDAP_V3 enabled, the library | |
441 | liblber required by newer versions of openldap is now | |
442 | included. | |
443 | ||
444 | ||
445 | strongswan-2.4.2 | |
446 | ---------------- | |
447 | ||
448 | - Added the _updown_espmark template which requires all | |
449 | incoming ESP traffic to be marked with a default mark | |
450 | value of 50. | |
451 | ||
452 | - Introduced the pkcs11keepstate parameter in the config setup | |
453 | section of ipsec.conf. With pkcs11keepstate=yes the PKCS#11 | |
454 | session and login states are kept as long as possible during | |
455 | the lifetime of pluto. This means that a PIN entry via a key | |
456 | pad has to be done only once. | |
457 | ||
458 | - Introduced the pkcs11module parameter in the config setup | |
459 | section of ipsec.conf which specifies the PKCS#11 module | |
460 | to be used with smart cards. Example: | |
461 | ||
462 | pkcs11module=/usr/lib/pkcs11/opensc-pkcs11.lo | |
463 | ||
464 | - Added support of smartcard readers equipped with a PIN pad. | |
465 | ||
466 | - Added patch by Jay Pfeifer which detects when netkey | |
467 | modules have been statically built into the Linux 2.6 kernel. | |
468 | ||
469 | - Added two patches by Herbert Xu. The first uses ip xfrm | |
470 | instead of setkey to flush the IPsec policy database. The | |
471 | second sets the optional flag in inbound IPComp SAs only. | |
472 | ||
473 | - Applied Ulrich Weber's patch which fixes an interoperability | |
474 | problem between native IPsec and KLIPS systems caused by | |
475 | setting the replay window to 32 instead of 0 for ipcomp. | |
476 | ||
477 | ||
478 | strongswan-2.4.1 | |
479 | ---------------- | |
480 | ||
481 | - Fixed a bug which caused an unwanted Mode Config request | |
482 | to be initiated in the case where "right" was used to denote | |
483 | the local side in ipsec.conf and "left" the remote side, | |
484 | contrary to the recommendation that "right" be remote and | |
485 | "left" be"local". | |
486 | ||
487 | ||
488 | strongswan-2.4.0a | |
489 | ----------------- | |
490 | ||
491 | - updated Vendor ID to strongSwan-2.4.0 | |
492 | ||
493 | - updated copyright statement to include David Buechi and | |
494 | Michael Meier | |
495 | ||
496 | ||
497 | strongswan-2.4.0 | |
498 | ---------------- | |
499 | ||
500 | - strongSwan now communicates with attached smartcards and | |
501 | USB crypto tokens via the standardized PKCS #11 interface. | |
502 | By default the OpenSC library from www.opensc.org is used | |
503 | but any other PKCS#11 library could be dynamically linked. | |
504 | strongSwan's PKCS#11 API was implemented by David Buechi | |
505 | and Michael Meier, both graduates of the Zurich University | |
506 | of Applied Sciences in Winterthur, Switzerland. | |
507 | ||
508 | - When a %trap eroute is triggered by an outgoing IP packet | |
509 | then the native IPsec stack of the Linux 2.6 kernel [often/ | |
510 | always?] returns an XFRM_ACQUIRE message with an undefined | |
511 | protocol family field and the connection setup fails. | |
512 | As a workaround IPv4 (AF_INET) is now assumed. | |
513 | ||
514 | - the results of the UML test scenarios are now enhanced | |
515 | with block diagrams of the virtual network topology used | |
516 | in a particular test. | |
517 | ||
518 | ||
519 | strongswan-2.3.2 | |
520 | ---------------- | |
521 | ||
522 | - fixed IV used to decrypt informational messages. | |
523 | This bug was introduced with Mode Config functionality. | |
524 | ||
525 | - fixed NCP Vendor ID. | |
526 | ||
527 | - undid one of Ulrich Weber's maximum udp size patches | |
528 | because it caused a segmentation fault with NAT-ed | |
529 | Delete SA messages. | |
530 | ||
531 | - added UML scenarios wildcards and attr-cert which | |
532 | demonstrate the implementation of IPsec policies based | |
533 | on wildcard parameters contained in Distinguished Names and | |
534 | on X.509 attribute certificates, respectively. | |
535 | ||
536 | ||
537 | strongswan-2.3.1 | |
538 | ---------------- | |
539 | ||
540 | - Added basic Mode Config functionality | |
541 | ||
542 | - Added Mathieu Lafon's patch which upgrades the status of | |
543 | the NAT-Traversal implementation to RFC 3947. | |
544 | ||
545 | - The _startklips script now also loads the xfrm4_tunnel | |
546 | module. | |
547 | ||
548 | - Added Ulrich Weber's netlink replay window size and | |
549 | maximum udp size patches. | |
550 | ||
551 | - UML testing now uses the Linux 2.6.10 UML kernel by default. | |
552 | ||
553 | ||
554 | strongswan-2.3.0 | |
555 | ---------------- | |
556 | ||
557 | - Eric Marchionni and Patrik Rayo, both recent graduates from | |
558 | the Zuercher Hochschule Winterthur in Switzerland, created a | |
559 | User-Mode-Linux test setup for strongSwan. For more details | |
560 | please read the INSTALL and README documents in the testing | |
561 | subdirectory. | |
562 | ||
563 | - Full support of group attributes based on X.509 attribute | |
564 | certificates. Attribute certificates can be generated | |
565 | using the openac facility. For more details see | |
566 | ||
567 | man ipsec_openac. | |
568 | ||
569 | The group attributes can be used in connection definitions | |
570 | in order to give IPsec access to specific user groups. | |
571 | This is done with the new parameter left|rightgroups as in | |
572 | ||
573 | rightgroups="Research, Sales" | |
574 | ||
575 | giving access to users possessing the group attributes | |
576 | Research or Sales, only. | |
577 | ||
578 | - In Quick Mode clients with subnet mask /32 are now | |
579 | coded as IP_V4_ADDRESS or IP_V6_ADDRESS. This should | |
580 | fix rekeying problems with the SafeNet/SoftRemote and NCP | |
581 | Secure Entry Clients. | |
582 | ||
583 | - Changed the defaults of the ikelifetime and keylife parameters | |
584 | to 3h and 1h, respectively. The maximum allowable values are | |
585 | now both set to 24 h. | |
586 | ||
587 | - Suppressed notification wars between two IPsec peers that | |
588 | could e.g. be triggered by incorrect ISAKMP encryption. | |
589 | ||
590 | - Public RSA keys can now have identical IDs if either the | |
591 | issuing CA or the serial number is different. The serial | |
592 | number of a certificate is now shown by the command | |
593 | ||
594 | ipsec auto --listpubkeys | |
595 | ||
596 | ||
597 | strongswan-2.2.2 | |
598 | ---------------- | |
599 | ||
600 | - Added Tuomo Soini's sourceip feature which allows a strongSwan | |
601 | roadwarrior to use a fixed Virtual IP (see README section 2.6) | |
602 | and reduces the well-known four tunnel case on VPN gateways to | |
603 | a single tunnel definition (see README section 2.4). | |
604 | ||
605 | - Fixed a bug occuring with NAT-Traversal enabled when the responder | |
606 | suddenly turns initiator and the initiator cannot find a matching | |
607 | connection because of the floated IKE port 4500. | |
608 | ||
609 | - Removed misleading ipsec verify command from barf. | |
610 | ||
611 | - Running under the native IP stack, ipsec --version now shows | |
612 | the Linux kernel version (courtesy to the Openswan project). | |
613 | ||
614 | ||
615 | strongswan-2.2.1 | |
616 | ---------------- | |
617 | ||
618 | - Introduced the ipsec auto --listalgs monitoring command which lists | |
619 | all currently registered IKE and ESP algorithms. | |
620 | ||
621 | - Fixed a bug in the ESP algorithm selection occuring when the strict flag | |
622 | is set and the first proposed transform does not match. | |
623 | ||
624 | - Fixed another deadlock in the use of the lock_certs_and_keys() mutex, | |
625 | occuring when a smartcard is present. | |
626 | ||
627 | - Prevented that a superseded Phase1 state can trigger a DPD_TIMEOUT event. | |
628 | ||
629 | - Fixed the printing of the notification names (null) | |
630 | ||
631 | - Applied another of Herbert Xu's Netlink patches. | |
632 | ||
633 | ||
634 | strongswan-2.2.0 | |
635 | ---------------- | |
636 | ||
637 | - Support of Dead Peer Detection. The connection parameter | |
638 | ||
639 | dpdaction=clear|hold | |
640 | ||
641 | activates DPD for the given connection. | |
642 | ||
643 | - The default Opportunistic Encryption (OE) policy groups are not | |
644 | automatically included anymore. Those wishing to activate OE can include | |
645 | the policy group with the following statement in ipsec.conf: | |
646 | ||
647 | include /etc/ipsec.d/examples/oe.conf | |
648 | ||
649 | The default for [right|left]rsasigkey is now set to %cert. | |
650 | ||
651 | - strongSwan now has a Vendor ID of its own which can be activated | |
652 | using the compile option VENDORID | |
653 | ||
654 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch which sets the compression algorithm correctly. | |
655 | ||
656 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch fixing an ESPINUDP problem | |
657 | ||
658 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch setting source/destination port numbers. | |
659 | ||
660 | - Reapplied one of Herbert Xu's NAT-Traversal patches which got | |
661 | lost during the migration from SuperFreeS/WAN. | |
662 | ||
663 | - Fixed a deadlock in the use of the lock_certs_and_keys() mutex. | |
664 | ||
665 | - Fixed the unsharing of alg parameters when instantiating group | |
666 | connection. | |
667 | ||
668 | ||
669 | strongswan-2.1.5 | |
670 | ---------------- | |
671 | ||
672 | - Thomas Walpuski made me aware of a potential DoS attack via | |
673 | a PKCS#7-wrapped certificate bundle which could overwrite valid CA | |
674 | certificates in Pluto's authority certificate store. This vulnerability | |
675 | was fixed by establishing trust in CA candidate certificates up to a | |
676 | trusted root CA prior to insertion into Pluto's chained list. | |
677 | ||
678 | - replaced the --assign option by the -v option in the auto awk script | |
679 | in order to make it run with mawk under debian/woody. | |
680 | ||
681 | ||
682 | strongswan-2.1.4 | |
683 | ---------------- | |
684 | ||
685 | - Split of the status information between ipsec auto --status (concise) | |
686 | and ipsec auto --statusall (verbose). Both commands can be used with | |
687 | an optional connection selector: | |
688 | ||
689 | ipsec auto --status[all] <connection_name> | |
690 | ||
691 | - Added the description of X.509 related features to the ipsec_auto(8) | |
692 | man page. | |
693 | ||
694 | - Hardened the ASN.1 parser in debug mode, especially the printing | |
695 | of malformed distinguished names. | |
696 | ||
697 | - The size of an RSA public key received in a certificate is now restricted to | |
698 | ||
699 | 512 bits <= modulus length <= 8192 bits. | |
700 | ||
701 | - Fixed the debug mode enumeration. | |
702 | ||
703 | ||
704 | strongswan-2.1.3 | |
705 | ---------------- | |
706 | ||
707 | - Fixed another PKCS#7 vulnerability which could lead to an | |
708 | endless loop while following the X.509 trust chain. | |
709 | ||
710 | ||
711 | strongswan-2.1.2 | |
712 | ---------------- | |
713 | ||
714 | - Fixed the PKCS#7 vulnerability discovered by Thomas Walpuski | |
715 | that accepted end certificates having identical issuer and subject | |
716 | distinguished names in a multi-tier X.509 trust chain. | |
717 | ||
718 | ||
719 | strongswan-2.1.1 | |
720 | ---------------- | |
721 | ||
722 | - Removed all remaining references to ipsec_netlink.h in KLIPS. | |
723 | ||
724 | ||
725 | strongswan-2.1.0 | |
726 | ---------------- | |
727 | ||
728 | - The new "ca" section allows to define the following parameters: | |
729 | ||
730 | ca kool | |
731 | cacert=koolCA.pem # cacert of kool CA | |
732 | ocspuri=http://ocsp.kool.net:8001 # ocsp server | |
733 | ldapserver=ldap.kool.net # default ldap server | |
734 | crluri=http://www.kool.net/kool.crl # crl distribution point | |
735 | crluri2="ldap:///O=Kool, C= .." # crl distribution point #2 | |
736 | auto=add # add, ignore | |
737 | ||
738 | The ca definitions can be monitored via the command | |
739 | ||
740 | ipsec auto --listcainfos | |
741 | ||
742 | - Fixed cosmetic corruption of /proc filesystem by integrating | |
743 | D. Hugh Redelmeier's freeswan-2.06 kernel fixes. | |
744 | ||
745 | ||
746 | strongswan-2.0.2 | |
747 | ---------------- | |
748 | ||
749 | - Added support for the 818043 NAT-Traversal update of Microsoft's | |
750 | Windows 2000/XP IPsec client which sends an ID_FQDN during Quick Mode. | |
751 | ||
752 | - A symbolic link to libcrypto is now added in the kernel sources | |
753 | during kernel compilation | |
754 | ||
755 | - Fixed a couple of 64 bit issues (mostly casts to int). | |
756 | Thanks to Ken Bantoft who checked my sources on a 64 bit platform. | |
757 | ||
758 | - Replaced s[n]printf() statements in the kernel by ipsec_snprintf(). | |
759 | Credits go to D. Hugh Redelmeier, Michael Richardson, and Sam Sgro | |
760 | of the FreeS/WAN team who solved this problem with the 2.4.25 kernel. | |
761 | ||
762 | ||
763 | strongswan-2.0.1 | |
764 | ---------------- | |
765 | ||
766 | - an empty ASN.1 SEQUENCE OF or SET OF object (e.g. a subjectAltName | |
767 | certificate extension which contains no generalName item) can cause | |
768 | a pluto crash. This bug has been fixed. Additionally the ASN.1 parser has | |
769 | been hardened to make it more robust against malformed ASN.1 objects. | |
770 | ||
771 | - applied Herbert Xu's NAT-T patches which fixes NAT-T under the native | |
772 | Linux 2.6 IPsec stack. | |
773 | ||
774 | ||
775 | strongswan-2.0.0 | |
776 | ---------------- | |
777 | ||
778 | - based on freeswan-2.04, x509-1.5.3, nat-0.6c, alg-0.8.1rc12 |
