+ |
Add initial statistics api to libmport and a driver to print |
5 |
+ |
it in mport(1). |

Revised rpcbind(8) patch to fix issues with NIS |
9 |
+ |
|
10 |
+ |
20150930: |
11 |
+ |
In rpcbind(8), netbuf structures are copied directly, which would result in |
12 |
+ |
two netbuf structures that reference to one shared address buffer. When one |
13 |
+ |
of the two netbuf structures is freed, access to the other netbuf structure |
14 |
+ |
would result in an undefined result that may crash the rpcbind(8) daemon. |
15 |
+ |
|
16 |
+ |
20150926: |
17 |
+ |
libmport now supports @preexec, @postexec, @preunexec and @postunexec |
18 |
+ |
to replace @exec and @unexec. |
19 |
+ |
|
20 |
+ |
pre exec runs afer pre-install scripts but before actual installation |
21 |
+ |
|
22 |
+ |
post exec runs after install but before post install scripts and |
23 |
+ |
pkg message. |
24 |
+ |
|
25 |
+ |
pre unexec runs before pre uninstall scripts |
26 |
+ |
|
27 |
+ |
post unexec runs before de-install scripts and after file removal. |
28 |

Fix kqueue write events for files > 2GB |
31 |
+ |
|
32 |
+ |
20150825: |
33 |
+ |
kernel: |
34 |
+ |
fix a security issue on amd64 where the GS segment CPU register can be changed via |
35 |
+ |
userland value in kernel mode by using an IRET with #SS or #NP exceptions. |
36 |
+ |
|
37 |
+ |
openssh: |
38 |
+ |
A programming error in the privileged monitor process of the sshd(8) |
39 |
+ |
service may allow the username of an already-authenticated user to be |
40 |
+ |
overwritten by the unprivileged child process. |
41 |
+ |
|
42 |
+ |
A use-after-free error in the privileged monitor process of he sshd(8) |
43 |
+ |
service may be deterministically triggered by the actions of a |
44 |
+ |
compromised unprivileged child process. |
45 |
+ |
|
46 |
+ |
A use-after-free error in the session multiplexing code in the sshd(8) |
47 |
+ |
service may result in unintended termination of the connection. |
48 |
+ |
|

|
52 |
+ |
20150815: |
53 |
+ |
libc changes: |
54 |
+ |
setmode(3) now returns errno consistently on error. |
55 |
+ |
libc will compile without error using clang |
56 |
+ |
|
57 |
+ |
20150814: |
58 |
+ |
wait6 system call added. |
59 |
+ |
|
60 |
+ |
date(1) now handles non numeric numbers passed to -r |
61 |
+ |
like GNU coreutils for improved compatibility. |
62 |
+ |
|
63 |
+ |
20150811: |
64 |
+ |

68 |
+ |
with llvm/clang. |

libmport now logs installation and removal of packages to syslog. |
79 |
+ |
|
80 |
+ |
20150805: |
81 |
+ |
routed - fix a potential security issue where traffic from outside |
82 |
+ |
the network can disrupt routing. |
83 |
+ |
|
84 |
+ |
bsd patch - fix a bug with ed(1) scripts allowing unsanitized input |
85 |
+ |
to run. |
86 |
+ |
|
87 |
+ |
20150802: |
88 |
+ |
jansson 2.7 library added. (libjansson is a JSON library in C) |
89 |
+ |
|
90 |
+ |
20150728: |
91 |
+ |
Heimdal 1.5.2 (kerberos implementation) |
92 |
+ |
|
93 |
+ |
OpenSSL 1.0.1o |
94 |
+ |
|
95 |
+ |
cpucontrol(8) now supports VIA CPUs. Synced with FreeBSD 9.2. |
96 |
+ |
|
97 |
+ |
TCP Resassemly resource exhaustion bug: |
98 |
+ |
There is a mistake with the introduction of VNET, which converted the |
99 |
+ |
global limit on the number of segments that could belong to reassembly |
100 |
+ |
queues into a per-VNET limit. Because mbufs are allocated from a |
101 |
+ |
global pool, in the presence of a sufficient number of VNETs, the |
102 |
+ |
total number of mbufs attached to reassembly queues can grow to the |
103 |
+ |
total number of mbufs in the system, at which point all network |
104 |
+ |
traffic would cease. |
105 |
+ |
Obtained from: FreeBSD 8 |
106 |
+ |
|
107 |
+ |
OpenSSH |
108 |
+ |
|
109 |
+ |
Fix two security vulnerabilities: |
110 |
+ |
OpenSSH clients does not correctly verify DNS SSHFP records when a server |
111 |
+ |
offers a certificate. [CVE-2014-2653] |
112 |
+ |
|
113 |
+ |
OpenSSH servers which are configured to allow password authentication |
114 |
+ |
using PAM (default) would allow many password attempts. A bug allows |
115 |
+ |
MaxAuthTries to be bypassed. [CVE-2015-5600] |
116 |
+ |
|
117 |
+ |
|
118 |
+ |
Switch to bsdpatch (from FreeBSD & OpenBSD) |
119 |
+ |
|

20150725: |
126 |
+ |
Import reallocarray from OpenBSD's libc. |
127 |
+ |
|
128 |
+ |
The reallocarray() function is similar to realloc() except it operates on |
129 |
+ |
nmemb members of size size and checks for integer overflow in the |
130 |
+ |
calculation nmemb * size. |
131 |
+ |
|
132 |
+ |
20150722: |
133 |
+ |
Fix a bug where TCP connections transitioning to LAST_ACK |
134 |
+ |
state can get stuck. This can result in a denial of service. |
135 |
+ |
|
136 |
+ |
20150715: |
137 |
+ |
libmport now supports @shell and @sample in plists. This means that |
138 |
+ |
a shell port can automatically add an entry to /etc/shells and remove |
139 |
+ |
it upon uninstallation. For sample files, a copy is made without the |
140 |
+ |
.sample extension if one does not exist and it is removed automatically |
141 |
+ |
only if the md5 hash of the two files is the same. |
142 |
+ |

flex 2.5.39 |
145 |
+ |
|
146 |
+ |
20150702: |
147 |
+ |
ZFS in MidnightBSD now supports lz4 compression. You can enable it |
148 |
+ |
with zfs set compression=lz4 pool/path. |
149 |
+ |
|
150 |
+ |
Verify it's working with |
151 |
+ |
zfs get compressratio pool/path |
152 |
+ |
du -h -s * |
153 |
+ |
|
154 |
+ |
Note you must write new data when turning on compression to see |
155 |
+ |
changes. Existing files are not compressed. |
156 |
+ |
|
157 |
+ |
Note: While we used the same basic implementation of lz4 that |
158 |
+ |
FreeBSD and OpenZFS uses, we did not yet implement features support |
159 |
+ |
and the zfs version still reports 28. This may come in a future update |
160 |
+ |
to ZFS. |
161 |
+ |
|
162 |
+ |
20150621: |
163 |
+ |
libmport now automatically stops services when deleting packages. |
164 |
+ |
|
165 |
+ |
The package must have installed an rc.d script in /usr/local/etc |
166 |
+ |
for this to work. This is equivalent to running service <name> onestop |
167 |
+ |
|
168 |
+ |
20150618: |
169 |
+ |
Sendmail |
170 |
+ |
|
171 |
+ |
With the recent changes to OpenSSL to block 512 bit certificates, |
172 |
+ |
sendmail can't connect with TLS to some servers. |
173 |
+ |
|
174 |
+ |
Increase the default size to 1024 bit for client connections to |
175 |
+ |
match the server configuration. |
176 |
+ |
|
177 |
+ |
ZFS |
178 |
+ |
|
179 |
+ |
Added ZFS TRIM support which is enabled by default. To disable |
180 |
+ |
ZFS TRIM support set vfs.zfs.trim.enabled=0 in loader.conf. |
181 |
+ |
|
182 |
+ |
Creating new ZFS pools and adding new devices to existing pools |
183 |
+ |
first performs a full device level TRIM which can take a significant |
184 |
+ |
amount of time. The sysctl vfs.zfs.vdev.trim_on_init can be set to 0 |
185 |
+ |
to disable this behaviour. |
186 |
+ |
|
187 |
+ |
ZFS TRIM requires the underlying device support BIO_DELETE which |
188 |
+ |
is currently provided by methods such as ATA TRIM and SCSI UNMAP |
189 |
+ |
via CAM, which are typically supported by SSD's. |
190 |
+ |
|
191 |
+ |
Stats for ZFS TRIM can be monitored by looking at the sysctl's |
192 |
+ |
under kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim. |
193 |
+ |
|
194 |
+ |
rc.d |
195 |
+ |
|
196 |
+ |
Reworked handling of cleanvar and FILESYSTEMS so that FILESYSTEMS |
197 |
+ |
implies everything is mounted and ready to go. |
198 |
+ |
|
199 |
+ |
Changed how ip6addressctl maps IPv6 on startup. |

Fix two security vulnerabilities: |
216 |

|
217 |
+ |
The previous fix for IGMP had an overflow issue. This has been corrected. |
218 |
+ |
|
219 |
+ |
ipv6: The Neighbor Discover Protocol allows a local router to advertise a |
220 |

Current Hop Limit on an interface connected to the link on the MidnightBSD |
