cd3958f8 AS |
2 | ---------------- |
3 | ||
4 | - Support of SHA2_384 hash function for protecting IKEv1 | |
5 | negotiations and support of SHA2 signatures in X.509 certificates. | |
6 | ||
7 | - Fixed a serious bug in the computation of the SHA2-512 HMAC | |
8 | function. Introduced automatic self-test of all IKEv1 hash | |
9 | and hmac functions during pluto startup. Failure of a self-test | |
10 | currently issues a warning only but does not exit pluto [yet]. | |
11 | ||
c5d0fbb6 AS |
12 | - Full support of CA information sections. ipsec listcainfos |
13 | now shows all collected crlDistributionPoints and OCSP | |
14 | accessLocations. | |

1c266d7d AS |
17 | strongswan-4.0.7 |
18 | ---------------- | |
19 | ||
6fdf5f44 AS |
20 | - strongSwan now interoperates with the NCP Secure Entry Client, |
21 | the Shrew Soft VPN Client, and the Cisco VPN client, doing both | |
22 | XAUTH and Mode Config. | |
1c266d7d AS |
23 | |
24 | - UNITY attributes are now recognized and UNITY_BANNER is set | |
25 | to a default string. | |
26 | ||

2b4405a3 MW |
28 | strongswan-4.0.6 |
29 | ---------------- | |
30 | ||
e38a15d4 AS |
31 | - IKEv1: Support for extended authentication (XAUTH) in combination |
32 | with ISAKMP Main Mode RSA or PSK authentication. Both client and | |
33 | server side were implemented. Handling of user credentials can | |
34 | be done by a run-time loadable XAUTH module. By default user | |
35 | credentials are stored in ipsec.secrets. | |
36 | ||
2b4405a3 MW |
37 | - IKEv2: Support for reauthentication when rekeying |
38 | ||
5903179b | 39 | - IKEv2: Support for transport mode |
af87afed | 40 | |
5903179b | 41 | - fixed a lot of bugs related to byte order |
2b4405a3 | 42 | |
5903179b | 43 | - various other bugfixes |

0cd645d2 AS |
46 | strongswan-4.0.5 |
47 | ---------------- | |
48 | ||
49 | - IKEv1: Implementation of ModeConfig push mode via the new connection | |
50 | keyword modeconfig=push allows interoperability with Cisco VPN gateways. | |
51 | ||
52 | - IKEv1: The command ipsec statusall now shows "DPD active" for all | |
53 | ISAKMP SAs that are under active Dead Peer Detection control. | |
54 | ||
55 | - IKEv2: Charon's logging and debugging framework has been completely rewritten. | |
56 | Instead of logger, special printf() functions are used to directly | |
57 | print objects like hosts (%H) identifications (%D), certificates (%Q), | |
58 | etc. The number of debugging levels have been reduced to: | |
03bf883d | 59 | |
0cd645d2 | 60 | 0 (audit), 1 (control), 2 (controlmore), 3 (raw), 4 (private) |
03bf883d | 61 | |
0cd645d2 AS |
62 | The debugging levels can either be specified statically in ipsec.conf as |
63 | ||
64 | config setup | |
03bf883d | 65 | charondebug="lib 1, cfg 3, net 2" |
0cd645d2 | 66 | |
03bf883d | 67 | or changed at runtime via stroke as |
0cd645d2 | 68 | |
03bf883d | 69 | ipsec stroke loglevel cfg 2 |
0cd645d2 AS |

48dc3934 MW |
72 | strongswan-4.0.4 |
73 | ---------------- | |
74 | ||
75 | - Implemented full support for IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnels. | |
76 | ||
77 | - Added configuration options for dead peer detection in IKEv2. dpd_action | |
78 | types "clear", "hold" and "restart" are supported. The dpd_timeout | |
79 | value is not used, as the normal retransmission policy applies to | |
80 | detect dead peers. The dpd_delay parameter enables sending of empty | |
81 | informational message to detect dead peers in case of inactivity. | |
82 | ||
83 | - Added support for preshared keys in IKEv2. PSK keys configured in | |
84 | ipsec.secrets are loaded. The authby parameter specifies the authentication | |
85 | method to authentificate ourself, the other peer may use PSK or RSA. | |
86 | ||
87 | - Changed retransmission policy to respect the keyingtries parameter. | |
88 | ||
112ad7c3 AS |
89 | - Added private key decryption. PEM keys encrypted with AES-128/192/256 |
90 | or 3DES are supported. | |
48dc3934 MW |
91 | |
92 | - Implemented DES/3DES algorithms in libstrongswan. 3DES can be used to | |
93 | encrypt IKE traffic. | |
94 | ||
95 | - Implemented SHA-256/384/512 in libstrongswan, allows usage of certificates | |
96 | signed with such a hash algorithm. | |
97 | ||
98 | - Added initial support for updown scripts. The actions up-host/client and | |
99 | down-host/client are executed. The leftfirewall=yes parameter | |
100 | uses the default updown script to insert dynamic firewall rules, a custom | |
101 | updown script may be specified with the leftupdown parameter. | |
102 | ||
103 | ||
a1310b6b MW |
104 | strongswan-4.0.3 |
105 | ---------------- | |
106 | ||
107 | - Added support for the auto=route ipsec.conf parameter and the | |
108 | ipsec route/unroute commands for IKEv2. This allows to set up IKE_SAs and | |
109 | CHILD_SAs dynamically on demand when traffic is detected by the | |
110 | kernel. | |
111 | ||
112 | - Added support for rekeying IKE_SAs in IKEv2 using the ikelifetime parameter. | |
113 | As specified in IKEv2, no reauthentication is done (unlike in IKEv1), only | |
114 | new keys are generated using perfect forward secrecy. An optional flag | |
115 | which enforces reauthentication will be implemented later. | |
116 | ||
b425d998 AS |
117 | - "sha" and "sha1" are now treated as synonyms in the ike= and esp= |
118 | algorithm configuration statements. | |
119 | ||
120 | ||
bf4df11f AS |
121 | strongswan-4.0.2 |
122 | ---------------- | |
123 | ||
623d3dcf AS |
124 | - Full X.509 certificate trust chain verification has been implemented. |
125 | End entity certificates can be exchanged via CERT payloads. The current | |
126 | default is leftsendcert=always, since CERTREQ payloads are not supported | |
127 | yet. Optional CRLs must be imported locally into /etc/ipsec.d/crls. | |
efa40c11 MW |
128 | |
129 | - Added support for leftprotoport/rightprotoport parameters in IKEv2. IKEv2 | |
130 | would offer more possibilities for traffic selection, but the Linux kernel | |
131 | currently does not support it. That's why we stick with these simple | |
132 | ipsec.conf rules for now. | |
133 | ||
623d3dcf AS |
134 | - Added Dead Peer Detection (DPD) which checks liveliness of remote peer if no |
135 | IKE or ESP traffic is received. DPD is currently hardcoded (dpdaction=clear, | |
136 | dpddelay=60s). | |
137 | ||
efa40c11 MW |
138 | - Initial NAT traversal support in IKEv2. Charon includes NAT detection |
139 | notify payloads to detect NAT routers between the peers. It switches | |
140 | to port 4500, uses UDP encapsulated ESP packets, handles peer address | |
141 | changes gracefully and sends keep alive message periodically. | |
142 | ||
143 | - Reimplemented IKE_SA state machine for charon, which allows simultaneous | |
144 | rekeying, more shared code, cleaner design, proper retransmission | |
145 | and a more extensible code base. | |
146 | ||
cfd8b27f AS |
147 | - The mixed PSK/RSA roadwarrior detection capability introduced by the |
148 | strongswan-2.7.0 release necessitated the pre-parsing of the IKE proposal | |
149 | payloads by the responder right before any defined IKE Main Mode state had | |
150 | been established. Although any form of bad proposal syntax was being correctly | |
151 | detected by the payload parser, the subsequent error handler didn't check | |
152 | the state pointer before logging current state information, causing an | |
153 | immediate crash of the pluto keying daemon due to a NULL pointer. | |
154 | ||

7e81e975 MW |
156 | strongswan-4.0.1 |
157 | ---------------- | |
158 | ||
c15c3d4b MW |
159 | - Added algorithm selection to charon: New default algorithms for |
160 | ike=aes128-sha-modp2048, as both daemons support it. The default | |
161 | for IPsec SAs is now esp=aes128-sha,3des-md5. charon handles | |
162 | the ike/esp parameter the same way as pluto. As this syntax does | |
163 | not allow specification of a pseudo random function, the same | |
164 | algorithm as for integrity is used (currently sha/md5). Supported | |
165 | algorithms for IKE: | |
166 | Encryption: aes128, aes192, aes256 | |
167 | Integrity/PRF: md5, sha (using hmac) | |
168 | DH-Groups: modp768, 1024, 1536, 2048, 4096, 8192 | |
169 | and for ESP: | |
170 | Encryption: aes128, aes192, aes256, 3des, blowfish128, | |
171 | blowfish192, blowfish256 | |
172 | Integrity: md5, sha1 | |
173 | More IKE encryption algorithms will come after porting libcrypto into | |
174 | libstrongswan. | |
f2c2d395 | 175 | |
c15c3d4b MW |
176 | - initial support for rekeying CHILD_SAs using IKEv2. Currently no |
177 | perfect forward secrecy is used. The rekeying parameters rekey, | |
22ff6f57 | 178 | rekeymargin, rekeyfuzz and keylife from ipsec.conf are now supported |
c15c3d4b MW |
179 | when using IKEv2. WARNING: charon currently is unable to handle |
180 | simultaneous rekeying. To avoid such a situation, use a large | |
181 | rekeyfuzz, or even better, set rekey=no on one peer. | |
22ff6f57 | 182 | |
7e81e975 MW |
183 | - support for host2host, net2net, host2net (roadwarrior) tunnels |
184 | using predefined RSA certificates (see uml scenarios for | |
185 | configuration examples). | |
186 | ||
f2c2d395 MW |
187 | - new build environment featuring autotools. Features such |
188 | as HTTP, LDAP and smartcard support may be enabled using | |
189 | the ./configure script. Changing install directories | |
190 | is possible, too. See ./configure --help for more details. | |
191 | ||
22ff6f57 MW |
192 | - better integration of charon with ipsec starter, which allows |
193 | (almost) transparent operation with both daemons. charon | |
194 | handles ipsec commands up, down, status, statusall, listall, | |
195 | listcerts and allows proper load, reload and delete of connections | |
196 | via ipsec starter. | |
197 | ||

9820c0e2 MW |
199 | strongswan-4.0.0 |
200 | ---------------- | |
201 | ||
202 | - initial support of the IKEv2 protocol. Connections in | |
203 | ipsec.conf designated by keyexchange=ikev2 are negotiated | |
204 | by the new IKEv2 charon keying daemon whereas those marked | |
205 | by keyexchange=ikev1 or the default keyexchange=ike are | |
206 | handled thy the IKEv1 pluto keying daemon. Currently only | |
207 | a limited subset of functions are available with IKEv2 | |
208 | (Default AES encryption, authentication based on locally | |
209 | imported X.509 certificates, unencrypted private RSA keys | |
210 | in PKCS#1 file format, limited functionality of the ipsec | |
211 | status command). | |
212 | ||
213 | ||
997358a6 MW |
214 | strongswan-2.7.0 |
215 | ---------------- | |
216 | ||
217 | - the dynamic iptables rules from the _updown_x509 template | |
218 | for KLIPS and the _updown_policy template for NETKEY have | |
219 | been merged into the default _updown script. The existing | |
220 | left|rightfirewall keyword causes the automatic insertion | |
221 | and deletion of ACCEPT rules for tunneled traffic upon | |
222 | the successful setup and teardown of an IPsec SA, respectively. | |
223 | left|rightfirwall can be used with KLIPS under any Linux 2.4 | |
224 | kernel or with NETKEY under a Linux kernel version >= 2.6.16 | |
225 | in conjuction with iptables >= 1.3.5. For NETKEY under a Linux | |
226 | kernel version < 2.6.16 which does not support IPsec policy | |
227 | matching yet, please continue to use a copy of the _updown_espmark | |
228 | template loaded via the left|rightupdown keyword. | |
229 | ||
230 | - a new left|righthostaccess keyword has been introduced which | |
231 | can be used in conjunction with left|rightfirewall and the | |
232 | default _updown script. By default leftfirewall=yes inserts | |
233 | a bi-directional iptables FORWARD rule for a local client network | |
234 | with a netmask different from 255.255.255.255 (single host). | |
235 | This does not allow to access the VPN gateway host via its | |
236 | internal network interface which is part of the client subnet | |
237 | because an iptables INPUT and OUTPUT rule would be required. | |
238 | lefthostaccess=yes will cause this additional ACCEPT rules to | |
239 | be inserted. | |
240 | ||
241 | - mixed PSK|RSA roadwarriors are now supported. The ISAKMP proposal | |
242 | payload is preparsed in order to find out whether the roadwarrior | |
243 | requests PSK or RSA so that a matching connection candidate can | |
244 | be found. | |
245 | ||
246 | ||
247 | strongswan-2.6.4 | |
248 | ---------------- | |
249 | ||
250 | - the new _updown_policy template allows ipsec policy based | |
251 | iptables firewall rules. Required are iptables version | |
252 | >= 1.3.5 and linux kernel >= 2.6.16. This script obsoletes | |
253 | the _updown_espmark template, so that no INPUT mangle rules | |
254 | are required any more. | |
255 | ||
256 | - added support of DPD restart mode | |
257 | ||
258 | - ipsec starter now allows the use of wildcards in include | |
259 | statements as e.g. in "include /etc/my_ipsec/*.conf". | |
260 | Patch courtesy of Matthias Haas. | |
261 | ||
262 | - the Netscape OID 'employeeNumber' is now recognized and can be | |
263 | used as a Relative Distinguished Name in certificates. | |
264 | ||
265 | ||
266 | strongswan-2.6.3 | |
267 | ---------------- | |
268 | ||
269 | - /etc/init.d/ipsec or /etc/rc.d/ipsec is now a copy of the ipsec | |
270 | command and not of ipsec setup any more. | |
271 | ||
272 | - ipsec starter now supports AH authentication in conjunction with | |
273 | ESP encryption. AH authentication is configured in ipsec.conf | |
274 | via the auth=ah parameter. | |
275 | ||
276 | - The command ipsec scencrypt|scdecrypt <args> is now an alias for | |
277 | ipsec whack --scencrypt|scdecrypt <args>. | |
278 | ||
279 | - get_sa_info() now determines for the native netkey IPsec stack | |
280 | the exact time of the last use of an active eroute. This information | |
281 | is used by the Dead Peer Detection algorithm and is also displayed by | |
282 | the ipsec status command. | |
283 | ||
284 | ||
285 | strongswan-2.6.2 | |
286 | ---------------- | |
287 | ||
288 | - running under the native Linux 2.6 IPsec stack, the function | |
289 | get_sa_info() is called by ipsec auto --status to display the current | |
290 | number of transmitted bytes per IPsec SA. | |
291 | ||
292 | - get_sa_info() is also used by the Dead Peer Detection process to detect | |
293 | recent ESP activity. If ESP traffic was received from the peer within | |
294 | the last dpd_delay interval then no R_Y_THERE notification must be sent. | |
295 | ||
296 | - strongSwan now supports the Relative Distinguished Name "unstructuredName" | |
297 | in ID_DER_ASN1_DN identities. The following notations are possible: | |
298 | ||
299 | rightid="unstructuredName=John Doe" | |
300 | rightid="UN=John Doe" | |
301 | ||
302 | - fixed a long-standing bug which caused PSK-based roadwarrior connections | |
303 | to segfault in the function id.c:same_id() called by keys.c:get_secret() | |
304 | if an FQDN, USER_FQDN, or Key ID was defined, as in the following example. | |
305 | ||
306 | conn rw | |
307 | right=%any | |
308 | rightid=@foo.bar | |
309 | authby=secret | |
310 | ||
311 | - the ipsec command now supports most ipsec auto commands (e.g. ipsec listall). | |
312 | ||
313 | - ipsec starter didn't set host_addr and client.addr ports in whack msg. | |
314 | ||
315 | - in order to guarantee backwards-compatibility with the script-based | |
316 | auto function (e.g. auto --replace), the ipsec starter scripts stores | |
317 | the defaultroute information in the temporary file /var/run/ipsec.info. | |
318 | ||
319 | - The compile-time option USE_XAUTH_VID enables the sending of the XAUTH | |
320 | Vendor ID which is expected by Cisco PIX 7 boxes that act as IKE Mode Config | |
321 | servers. | |
322 | ||
323 | - the ipsec starter now also recognizes the parameters authby=never and | |
324 | type=passthrough|pass|drop|reject. | |
325 | ||
326 | ||
327 | strongswan-2.6.1 | |
328 | ---------------- | |
329 | ||
330 | - ipsec starter now supports the also parameter which allows | |
331 | a modular structure of the connection definitions. Thus | |
332 | "ipsec start" is now ready to replace "ipsec setup". | |
333 | ||
334 | ||
335 | strongswan-2.6.0 | |
336 | ---------------- | |
337 | ||
338 | - Mathieu Lafon's popular ipsec starter tool has been added to the | |
339 | strongSwan distribution. Many thanks go to Stephan Scholz from astaro | |
340 | for his integration work. ipsec starter is a C program which is going | |
341 | to replace the various shell and awk starter scripts (setup, _plutoload, | |
342 | _plutostart, _realsetup, _startklips, _confread, and auto). Since | |
343 | ipsec.conf is now parsed only once, the starting of multiple tunnels is | |
344 | accelerated tremedously. | |
345 | ||
346 | - Added support of %defaultroute to the ipsec starter. If the IP address | |
347 | changes, a HUP signal to the ipsec starter will automatically | |
348 | reload pluto's connections. | |
349 | ||
350 | - moved most compile time configurations from pluto/Makefile to | |
351 | Makefile.inc by defining the options USE_LIBCURL, USE_LDAP, | |
352 | USE_SMARTCARD, and USE_NAT_TRAVERSAL_TRANSPORT_MODE. | |
353 | ||
354 | - removed the ipsec verify and ipsec newhostkey commands | |
355 | ||
356 | - fixed some 64-bit issues in formatted print statements | |
357 | ||
358 | - The scepclient functionality implementing the Simple Certificate | |
359 | Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) is nearly complete but hasn't been | |
360 | documented yet. | |
361 | ||
362 | ||
363 | strongswan-2.5.7 | |
364 | ---------------- | |
365 | ||
366 | - CA certicates are now automatically loaded from a smartcard | |
367 | or USB crypto token and appear in the ipsec auto --listcacerts | |
368 | listing. | |
369 | ||
370 | ||
371 | strongswan-2.5.6 | |
372 | ---------------- | |
373 | ||
374 | - when using "ipsec whack --scencrypt <data>" with a PKCS#11 | |
375 | library that does not support the C_Encrypt() Cryptoki | |
376 | function (e.g. OpenSC), the RSA encryption is done in | |
377 | software using the public key fetched from the smartcard. | |
378 | ||
379 | - The scepclient function now allows to define the | |
380 | validity of a self-signed certificate using the --days, | |
381 | --startdate, and --enddate options. The default validity | |
382 | has been changed from one year to five years. | |
383 | ||
384 | ||
385 | strongswan-2.5.5 | |
386 | ---------------- | |
387 | ||
388 | - the config setup parameter pkcs11proxy=yes opens pluto's PKCS#11 | |
389 | interface to other applications for RSA encryption and decryption | |
390 | via the whack interface. Notation: | |
391 | ||
392 | ipsec whack --scencrypt <data> | |
393 | [--inbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
394 | [--outbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
395 | [--keyid <keyid>] | |
396 | ||
397 | ipsec whack --scdecrypt <data> | |
398 | [--inbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
399 | [--outbase 16|hex|64|base64|256|text|ascii] | |
400 | [--keyid <keyid>] | |
401 | ||
402 | The default setting for inbase and outbase is hex. | |
403 | ||
404 | The new proxy interface can be used for securing symmetric | |
405 | encryption keys required by the cryptoloop or dm-crypt | |
406 | disk encryption schemes, especially in the case when | |
407 | pkcs11keepstate=yes causes pluto to lock the pkcs11 slot | |
408 | permanently. | |
409 | ||
410 | - if the file /etc/ipsec.secrets is lacking during the startup of | |
411 | pluto then the root-readable file /etc/ipsec.d/private/myKey.der | |
412 | containing a 2048 bit RSA private key and a matching self-signed | |
413 | certificate stored in the file /etc/ipsec.d/certs/selfCert.der | |
414 | is automatically generated by calling the function | |
415 | ||
416 | ipsec scepclient --out pkcs1 --out cert-self | |
417 | ||
418 | scepclient was written by Jan Hutter and Martin Willi, students | |
419 | at the University of Applied Sciences in Rapperswil, Switzerland. | |
420 | ||
421 | ||
422 | strongswan-2.5.4 | |
423 | ---------------- | |
424 | ||
425 | - the current extension of the PKCS#7 framework introduced | |
426 | a parsing error in PKCS#7 wrapped X.509 certificates that are | |
427 | e.g. transmitted by Windows XP when multi-level CAs are used. | |
428 | the parsing syntax has been fixed. | |
429 | ||
430 | - added a patch by Gerald Richter which tolerates multiple occurrences | |
431 | of the ipsec0 interface when using KLIPS. | |
432 | ||
433 | ||
434 | strongswan-2.5.3 | |
435 | ---------------- | |
436 | ||
437 | - with gawk-3.1.4 the word "default2 has become a protected | |
438 | keyword for use in switch statements and cannot be used any | |
439 | more in the strongSwan scripts. This problem has been | |
440 | solved by renaming "default" to "defaults" and "setdefault" | |
441 | in the scripts _confread and auto, respectively. | |
442 | ||
443 | - introduced the parameter leftsendcert with the values | |
444 | ||
445 | always|yes (the default, always send a cert) | |
446 | ifasked (send the cert only upon a cert request) | |
447 | never|no (never send a cert, used for raw RSA keys and | |
448 | self-signed certs) | |
449 | ||
450 | - fixed the initialization of the ESP key length to a default of | |
451 | 128 bits in the case that the peer does not send a key length | |
452 | attribute for AES encryption. | |
453 | ||
454 | - applied Herbert Xu's uniqueIDs patch | |
455 | ||
456 | - applied Herbert Xu's CLOEXEC patches | |
457 | ||
458 | ||
459 | strongswan-2.5.2 | |
460 | ---------------- | |
461 | ||
462 | - CRLs can now be cached also in the case when the issuer's | |
463 | certificate does not contain a subjectKeyIdentifier field. | |
464 | In that case the subjectKeyIdentifier is computed by pluto as the | |
465 | 160 bit SHA-1 hash of the issuer's public key in compliance | |
466 | with section 4.2.1.2 of RFC 3280. | |
467 | ||
468 | - Fixed a bug introduced by strongswan-2.5.1 which eliminated | |
469 | not only multiple Quick Modes of a given connection but also | |
470 | multiple connections between two security gateways. | |
471 | ||
472 | ||
473 | strongswan-2.5.1 | |
474 | ---------------- | |
475 | ||
476 | - Under the native IPsec of the Linux 2.6 kernel, a %trap eroute | |
477 | installed either by setting auto=route in ipsec.conf or by | |
478 | a connection put into hold, generates an XFRM_AQUIRE event | |
479 | for each packet that wants to use the not-yet exisiting | |
480 | tunnel. Up to now each XFRM_AQUIRE event led to an entry in | |
481 | the Quick Mode queue, causing multiple IPsec SA to be | |
482 | established in rapid succession. Starting with strongswan-2.5.1 | |
483 | only a single IPsec SA is established per host-pair connection. | |
484 | ||
485 | - Right after loading the PKCS#11 module, all smartcard slots are | |
486 | searched for certificates. The result can be viewed using | |
487 | the command | |
488 | ||
489 | ipsec auto --listcards | |
490 | ||
491 | The certificate objects found in the slots are numbered | |
492 | starting with #1, #2, etc. This position number can be used to address | |
493 | certificates (leftcert=%smartcard) and keys (: PIN %smartcard) | |
494 | in ipsec.conf and ipsec.secrets, respectively: | |
495 | ||
496 | %smartcard (selects object #1) | |
497 | %smartcard#1 (selects object #1) | |
498 | %smartcard#3 (selects object #3) | |
499 | ||
500 | As an alternative the existing retrieval scheme can be used: | |
501 | ||
502 | %smartcard:45 (selects object with id=45) | |
503 | %smartcard0 (selects first object in slot 0) | |
504 | %smartcard4:45 (selects object in slot 4 with id=45) | |
505 | ||
506 | - Depending on the settings of CKA_SIGN and CKA_DECRYPT | |
507 | private key flags either C_Sign() or C_Decrypt() is used | |
508 | to generate a signature. | |
509 | ||
510 | - The output buffer length parameter siglen in C_Sign() | |
511 | is now initialized to the actual size of the output | |
512 | buffer prior to the function call. This fixes the | |
513 | CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL error that could occur when using | |
514 | the OpenSC PKCS#11 module. | |
515 | ||
516 | - Changed the initialization of the PKCS#11 CK_MECHANISM in | |
517 | C_SignInit() to mech = { CKM_RSA_PKCS, NULL_PTR, 0 }. | |
518 | ||
519 | - Refactored the RSA public/private key code and transferred it | |
520 | from keys.c to the new pkcs1.c file as a preparatory step | |
521 | towards the release of the SCEP client. | |
522 | ||
523 | ||
524 | strongswan-2.5.0 | |
525 | ---------------- | |
526 | ||
527 | - The loading of a PKCS#11 smartcard library module during | |
528 | runtime does not require OpenSC library functions any more | |
529 | because the corresponding code has been integrated into | |
530 | smartcard.c. Also the RSAREF pkcs11 header files have been | |
531 | included in a newly created pluto/rsaref directory so that | |
532 | no external include path has to be defined any longer. | |
533 | ||
534 | - A long-awaited feature has been implemented at last: | |
535 | The local caching of CRLs fetched via HTTP or LDAP, activated | |
536 | by the parameter cachecrls=yes in the config setup section | |
537 | of ipsec.conf. The dynamically fetched CRLs are stored under | |
538 | a unique file name containing the issuer's subjectKeyID | |
539 | in /etc/ipsec.d/crls. | |
540 | ||
541 | - Applied a one-line patch courtesy of Michael Richardson | |
542 | from the Openswan project which fixes the kernel-oops | |
543 | in KLIPS when an snmp daemon is running on the same box. | |
544 | ||
545 | ||
546 | strongswan-2.4.4 | |
547 | ---------------- | |
548 | ||
549 | - Eliminated null length CRL distribution point strings. | |
550 | ||
551 | - Fixed a trust path evaluation bug introduced with 2.4.3 | |
552 | ||
553 | ||
554 | strongswan-2.4.3 | |
555 | ---------------- | |
556 | ||
557 | - Improved the joint OCSP / CRL revocation policy. | |
558 | OCSP responses have precedence over CRL entries. | |
559 | ||
560 | - Introduced support of CRLv2 reason codes. | |
561 | ||
562 | - Fixed a bug with key-pad equipped readers which caused | |
563 | pluto to prompt for the pin via the console when the first | |
564 | occasion to enter the pin via the key-pad was missed. | |
565 | ||
566 | - When pluto is built with LDAP_V3 enabled, the library | |
567 | liblber required by newer versions of openldap is now | |
568 | included. | |
569 | ||
570 | ||
571 | strongswan-2.4.2 | |
572 | ---------------- | |
573 | ||
574 | - Added the _updown_espmark template which requires all | |
575 | incoming ESP traffic to be marked with a default mark | |
576 | value of 50. | |
577 | ||
578 | - Introduced the pkcs11keepstate parameter in the config setup | |
579 | section of ipsec.conf. With pkcs11keepstate=yes the PKCS#11 | |
580 | session and login states are kept as long as possible during | |
581 | the lifetime of pluto. This means that a PIN entry via a key | |
582 | pad has to be done only once. | |
583 | ||
584 | - Introduced the pkcs11module parameter in the config setup | |
585 | section of ipsec.conf which specifies the PKCS#11 module | |
586 | to be used with smart cards. Example: | |
587 | ||
588 | pkcs11module=/usr/lib/pkcs11/opensc-pkcs11.lo | |
589 | ||
590 | - Added support of smartcard readers equipped with a PIN pad. | |
591 | ||
592 | - Added patch by Jay Pfeifer which detects when netkey | |
593 | modules have been statically built into the Linux 2.6 kernel. | |
594 | ||
595 | - Added two patches by Herbert Xu. The first uses ip xfrm | |
596 | instead of setkey to flush the IPsec policy database. The | |
597 | second sets the optional flag in inbound IPComp SAs only. | |
598 | ||
599 | - Applied Ulrich Weber's patch which fixes an interoperability | |
600 | problem between native IPsec and KLIPS systems caused by | |
601 | setting the replay window to 32 instead of 0 for ipcomp. | |
602 | ||
603 | ||
604 | strongswan-2.4.1 | |
605 | ---------------- | |
606 | ||
607 | - Fixed a bug which caused an unwanted Mode Config request | |
608 | to be initiated in the case where "right" was used to denote | |
609 | the local side in ipsec.conf and "left" the remote side, | |
610 | contrary to the recommendation that "right" be remote and | |
611 | "left" be"local". | |
612 | ||
613 | ||
614 | strongswan-2.4.0a | |
615 | ----------------- | |
616 | ||
617 | - updated Vendor ID to strongSwan-2.4.0 | |
618 | ||
619 | - updated copyright statement to include David Buechi and | |
620 | Michael Meier | |
621 | ||
622 | ||
623 | strongswan-2.4.0 | |
624 | ---------------- | |
625 | ||
626 | - strongSwan now communicates with attached smartcards and | |
627 | USB crypto tokens via the standardized PKCS #11 interface. | |
628 | By default the OpenSC library from www.opensc.org is used | |
629 | but any other PKCS#11 library could be dynamically linked. | |
630 | strongSwan's PKCS#11 API was implemented by David Buechi | |
631 | and Michael Meier, both graduates of the Zurich University | |
632 | of Applied Sciences in Winterthur, Switzerland. | |
633 | ||
634 | - When a %trap eroute is triggered by an outgoing IP packet | |
635 | then the native IPsec stack of the Linux 2.6 kernel [often/ | |
636 | always?] returns an XFRM_ACQUIRE message with an undefined | |
637 | protocol family field and the connection setup fails. | |
638 | As a workaround IPv4 (AF_INET) is now assumed. | |
639 | ||
640 | - the results of the UML test scenarios are now enhanced | |
641 | with block diagrams of the virtual network topology used | |
642 | in a particular test. | |
643 | ||
644 | ||
645 | strongswan-2.3.2 | |
646 | ---------------- | |
647 | ||
648 | - fixed IV used to decrypt informational messages. | |
649 | This bug was introduced with Mode Config functionality. | |
650 | ||
651 | - fixed NCP Vendor ID. | |
652 | ||
653 | - undid one of Ulrich Weber's maximum udp size patches | |
654 | because it caused a segmentation fault with NAT-ed | |
655 | Delete SA messages. | |
656 | ||
657 | - added UML scenarios wildcards and attr-cert which | |
658 | demonstrate the implementation of IPsec policies based | |
659 | on wildcard parameters contained in Distinguished Names and | |
660 | on X.509 attribute certificates, respectively. | |
661 | ||
662 | ||
663 | strongswan-2.3.1 | |
664 | ---------------- | |
665 | ||
666 | - Added basic Mode Config functionality | |
667 | ||
668 | - Added Mathieu Lafon's patch which upgrades the status of | |
669 | the NAT-Traversal implementation to RFC 3947. | |
670 | ||
671 | - The _startklips script now also loads the xfrm4_tunnel | |
672 | module. | |
673 | ||
674 | - Added Ulrich Weber's netlink replay window size and | |
675 | maximum udp size patches. | |
676 | ||
677 | - UML testing now uses the Linux 2.6.10 UML kernel by default. | |
678 | ||
679 | ||
680 | strongswan-2.3.0 | |
681 | ---------------- | |
682 | ||
683 | - Eric Marchionni and Patrik Rayo, both recent graduates from | |
684 | the Zuercher Hochschule Winterthur in Switzerland, created a | |
685 | User-Mode-Linux test setup for strongSwan. For more details | |
686 | please read the INSTALL and README documents in the testing | |
687 | subdirectory. | |
688 | ||
689 | - Full support of group attributes based on X.509 attribute | |
690 | certificates. Attribute certificates can be generated | |
691 | using the openac facility. For more details see | |
692 | ||
693 | man ipsec_openac. | |
694 | ||
695 | The group attributes can be used in connection definitions | |
696 | in order to give IPsec access to specific user groups. | |
697 | This is done with the new parameter left|rightgroups as in | |
698 | ||
699 | rightgroups="Research, Sales" | |
700 | ||
701 | giving access to users possessing the group attributes | |
702 | Research or Sales, only. | |
703 | ||
704 | - In Quick Mode clients with subnet mask /32 are now | |
705 | coded as IP_V4_ADDRESS or IP_V6_ADDRESS. This should | |
706 | fix rekeying problems with the SafeNet/SoftRemote and NCP | |
707 | Secure Entry Clients. | |
708 | ||
709 | - Changed the defaults of the ikelifetime and keylife parameters | |
710 | to 3h and 1h, respectively. The maximum allowable values are | |
711 | now both set to 24 h. | |
712 | ||
713 | - Suppressed notification wars between two IPsec peers that | |
714 | could e.g. be triggered by incorrect ISAKMP encryption. | |
715 | ||
716 | - Public RSA keys can now have identical IDs if either the | |
717 | issuing CA or the serial number is different. The serial | |
718 | number of a certificate is now shown by the command | |
719 | ||
720 | ipsec auto --listpubkeys | |
721 | ||
722 | ||
723 | strongswan-2.2.2 | |
724 | ---------------- | |
725 | ||
726 | - Added Tuomo Soini's sourceip feature which allows a strongSwan | |
727 | roadwarrior to use a fixed Virtual IP (see README section 2.6) | |
728 | and reduces the well-known four tunnel case on VPN gateways to | |
729 | a single tunnel definition (see README section 2.4). | |
730 | ||
731 | - Fixed a bug occuring with NAT-Traversal enabled when the responder | |
732 | suddenly turns initiator and the initiator cannot find a matching | |
733 | connection because of the floated IKE port 4500. | |
734 | ||
735 | - Removed misleading ipsec verify command from barf. | |
736 | ||
737 | - Running under the native IP stack, ipsec --version now shows | |
738 | the Linux kernel version (courtesy to the Openswan project). | |
739 | ||
740 | ||
741 | strongswan-2.2.1 | |
742 | ---------------- | |
743 | ||
744 | - Introduced the ipsec auto --listalgs monitoring command which lists | |
745 | all currently registered IKE and ESP algorithms. | |
746 | ||
747 | - Fixed a bug in the ESP algorithm selection occuring when the strict flag | |
748 | is set and the first proposed transform does not match. | |
749 | ||
750 | - Fixed another deadlock in the use of the lock_certs_and_keys() mutex, | |
751 | occuring when a smartcard is present. | |
752 | ||
753 | - Prevented that a superseded Phase1 state can trigger a DPD_TIMEOUT event. | |
754 | ||
755 | - Fixed the printing of the notification names (null) | |
756 | ||
757 | - Applied another of Herbert Xu's Netlink patches. | |
758 | ||
759 | ||
760 | strongswan-2.2.0 | |
761 | ---------------- | |
762 | ||
763 | - Support of Dead Peer Detection. The connection parameter | |
764 | ||
765 | dpdaction=clear|hold | |
766 | ||
767 | activates DPD for the given connection. | |
768 | ||
769 | - The default Opportunistic Encryption (OE) policy groups are not | |
770 | automatically included anymore. Those wishing to activate OE can include | |
771 | the policy group with the following statement in ipsec.conf: | |
772 | ||
773 | include /etc/ipsec.d/examples/oe.conf | |
774 | ||
775 | The default for [right|left]rsasigkey is now set to %cert. | |
776 | ||
777 | - strongSwan now has a Vendor ID of its own which can be activated | |
778 | using the compile option VENDORID | |
779 | ||
780 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch which sets the compression algorithm correctly. | |
781 | ||
782 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch fixing an ESPINUDP problem | |
783 | ||
784 | - Applied Herbert Xu's patch setting source/destination port numbers. | |
785 | ||
786 | - Reapplied one of Herbert Xu's NAT-Traversal patches which got | |
787 | lost during the migration from SuperFreeS/WAN. | |
788 | ||
789 | - Fixed a deadlock in the use of the lock_certs_and_keys() mutex. | |
790 | ||
791 | - Fixed the unsharing of alg parameters when instantiating group | |
792 | connection. | |
793 | ||
794 | ||
795 | strongswan-2.1.5 | |
796 | ---------------- | |
797 | ||
798 | - Thomas Walpuski made me aware of a potential DoS attack via | |
799 | a PKCS#7-wrapped certificate bundle which could overwrite valid CA | |
800 | certificates in Pluto's authority certificate store. This vulnerability | |
801 | was fixed by establishing trust in CA candidate certificates up to a | |
802 | trusted root CA prior to insertion into Pluto's chained list. | |
803 | ||
804 | - replaced the --assign option by the -v option in the auto awk script | |
805 | in order to make it run with mawk under debian/woody. | |
806 | ||
807 | ||
808 | strongswan-2.1.4 | |
809 | ---------------- | |
810 | ||
811 | - Split of the status information between ipsec auto --status (concise) | |
812 | and ipsec auto --statusall (verbose). Both commands can be used with | |
813 | an optional connection selector: | |
814 | ||
815 | ipsec auto --status[all] <connection_name> | |
816 | ||
817 | - Added the description of X.509 related features to the ipsec_auto(8) | |
818 | man page. | |
819 | ||
820 | - Hardened the ASN.1 parser in debug mode, especially the printing | |
821 | of malformed distinguished names. | |
822 | ||
823 | - The size of an RSA public key received in a certificate is now restricted to | |
824 | ||
825 | 512 bits <= modulus length <= 8192 bits. | |
826 | ||
827 | - Fixed the debug mode enumeration. | |
828 | ||
829 | ||
830 | strongswan-2.1.3 | |
831 | ---------------- | |
832 | ||
833 | - Fixed another PKCS#7 vulnerability which could lead to an | |
834 | endless loop while following the X.509 trust chain. | |
835 | ||
836 | ||
837 | strongswan-2.1.2 | |
838 | ---------------- | |
839 | ||
840 | - Fixed the PKCS#7 vulnerability discovered by Thomas Walpuski | |
841 | that accepted end certificates having identical issuer and subject | |
842 | distinguished names in a multi-tier X.509 trust chain. | |
843 | ||
844 | ||
845 | strongswan-2.1.1 | |
846 | ---------------- | |
847 | ||
848 | - Removed all remaining references to ipsec_netlink.h in KLIPS. | |
849 | ||
850 | ||
851 | strongswan-2.1.0 | |
852 | ---------------- | |
853 | ||
854 | - The new "ca" section allows to define the following parameters: | |
855 | ||
856 | ca kool | |
857 | cacert=koolCA.pem # cacert of kool CA | |
858 | ocspuri=http://ocsp.kool.net:8001 # ocsp server | |
859 | ldapserver=ldap.kool.net # default ldap server | |
860 | crluri=http://www.kool.net/kool.crl # crl distribution point | |
861 | crluri2="ldap:///O=Kool, C= .." # crl distribution point #2 | |
862 | auto=add # add, ignore | |
863 | ||
864 | The ca definitions can be monitored via the command | |
865 | ||
866 | ipsec auto --listcainfos | |
867 | ||
868 | - Fixed cosmetic corruption of /proc filesystem by integrating | |
869 | D. Hugh Redelmeier's freeswan-2.06 kernel fixes. | |
870 | ||
871 | ||
872 | strongswan-2.0.2 | |
873 | ---------------- | |
874 | ||
875 | - Added support for the 818043 NAT-Traversal update of Microsoft's | |
876 | Windows 2000/XP IPsec client which sends an ID_FQDN during Quick Mode. | |
877 | ||
878 | - A symbolic link to libcrypto is now added in the kernel sources | |
879 | during kernel compilation | |
880 | ||
881 | - Fixed a couple of 64 bit issues (mostly casts to int). | |
882 | Thanks to Ken Bantoft who checked my sources on a 64 bit platform. | |
883 | ||
884 | - Replaced s[n]printf() statements in the kernel by ipsec_snprintf(). | |
885 | Credits go to D. Hugh Redelmeier, Michael Richardson, and Sam Sgro | |
886 | of the FreeS/WAN team who solved this problem with the 2.4.25 kernel. | |
887 | ||
888 | ||
889 | strongswan-2.0.1 | |
890 | ---------------- | |
891 | ||
892 | - an empty ASN.1 SEQUENCE OF or SET OF object (e.g. a subjectAltName | |
893 | certificate extension which contains no generalName item) can cause | |
894 | a pluto crash. This bug has been fixed. Additionally the ASN.1 parser has | |
895 | been hardened to make it more robust against malformed ASN.1 objects. | |
896 | ||
897 | - applied Herbert Xu's NAT-T patches which fixes NAT-T under the native | |
898 | Linux 2.6 IPsec stack. | |
899 | ||
900 | ||
901 | strongswan-2.0.0 | |
902 | ---------------- | |
903 | ||
904 | - based on freeswan-2.04, x509-1.5.3, nat-0.6c, alg-0.8.1rc12 |
