5  
6 + 20140604:
7 +        Sendmail failed to properly set close-on-exec for open file descriptors.
8 +
9 +        ktrace page fault kernel trace entries were set to an incorrect size which resulted
10 +        in a leak of information.
11 +
12 + 20140430:
13 +        Fix a TCP reassembly bug that could result in a DOS attack
14 +        of the system. It may be possible to obtain portions
15 +        of kernel memory as well.
16 +
17 + 20140411:
18 +        Update zlib to 1.2.7
19 +
20 + 20140122:
21 +        Support for username with length 32. Previous limit was 16
22 +
23 + 20140114:
24 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
25 +
26 +        bsnmpd contains a stack overflow when sent certain queries.
27 +
28 +        bind 9.8 when using NSEC3-signed zones zones, will crash with special
29 +        crafted packets.
30 +
31 + 20131228:
32 +        Imported FreeBSD 9.2 usb stack (plus z87 patches from stable)
33 +
34 +        Updated em(4), igb(4) and ixgbe(4)
35 +
36 +        MidnightBSD now works with Z87 Intel chipsets.
37 +
38 + 20131207:
39 +        Remove sparc64 architecture. It hasn't been working for awhile
40 +        and it's not useful for desktops anymore.
41 +
42 + 20131205:
43 +        OpenSSH 6.4p1
44 +
45 + 20131203:
46 +        Perl 5.18.1 imported.
47 +
48 +        Update less to v458
49 +
50 + 20131130:
51 +        Remove named from base. We still include the client utilities for
52 +        now until replacements can be found.
53 +
54 + 20131004:
55 +        rarpd supports vlan(4) and has a pid flag. (from FreeBSD)
56 +
57 + 20130917:
58 +        Support for 65,536 routing tables was added.  A new fib specific
59 +        field has been added to mbuf.  This is an increase from 16.
60 +
61 + 20130910:
62 +        Security updates: (kern.osreldate 5001)
63 +
64 +        nullfs(5)
65 +
66 +        The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not
67 +        check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same
68 +        nullfs instance.  It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a
69 +        location in one nullfs instance to a file in another, as long as the
70 +        underlying (source) filesystem is the same.
71 +
72 +        ifioctl
73 +
74 +        As is commonly the case, the IPv6 and ATM network layer ioctl request
75 +        handlers are written in such a way that an unrecognized request is
76 +        passed on unmodified to the link layer, which will either handle it or
77 +        return an error code.
78 +
79 +        Network interface drivers, however, assume that the SIOCSIFADDR,
80 +        SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been
81 +        handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input
82 +        validation or verify the caller's credentials.  Typical link-layer
83 +        actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up"
84 +        and resetting the underlying hardware.
85 +
86 + 20130824:
87 +        Fix a bug in sendmail 8.14.7 that interferes with how it
88 +        handles AAAA records interoperating with Microsoft DNS servers.
89 +        FreeBSD has already reported this to Sendmail and a fix
90 +        will be included in the next release.
91 +
92 +        Subversion 1.8.1 is now in the base system as a static
93 +        binary.  It has limited functionality, but can be used to
94 +        checkout/commit code.  It is named svnlite.
95 +
96 + 20130822:
97 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
98 +
99 +        Fix an integer overflow in IP_MSFILTER (IP MULTICAST).
100 +        This could be exploited to read memory by a user process.
101 +
102 +        When initializing the SCTP state cookie being sent in INIT-ACK chunks,
103 +        a buffer allocated from the kernel stack is not completely initialized.
104 +
105 +        Import xz 5.0.4
106 +
107 +        Import sqlite 3.7.17
108 +
109 +        Import BIND 9.8.5-P2
110 +
111 + 20130814:
112 +        mksh R48 imported.
113 +
114 +        Sendmail 8.14.7 imported.
115 +
116 + 20130717:
117 +        libmport bug was fixed causing hash verification to fail.
118 +
119 +        virtio(4) imported from FreeBSD 9-stable. SCSI support not
120 +        included.
121 +
122 + 20130612:
123 +        RELENG_0_4 created for 0.4. Development continues on 0.5.
124 +
125 + 20130402:
126 +        Update BIND and OpenSSL to resolve security advisories.
127 +
128 + 20130305:
129 +        MKSH R44 imported.
130 +
131 + 20130213:
132 +        MKSH R42b imported
133 +
134 + 20130211:
135 +        MKSH R42 imported
136 +
137 + 20130125:
138 +        MKSH R41 imported
139 +
140 + 20130122:
141 +        OpenSSH 5.8p2 imported
142 +
143 +        SQLite 3.7.15.2 imported
144 +
145 +        Fixed a longstanding bug in libmport extrating new index files.
146 +
147 + 20120710:
148 +        BSD licensed sort imported from FreeBSD-CURRENT
149 +
150 +        For now, GNU sort is installed as gnusort, but it will
151 +        go away in time.
152 +
153 + 20120708:
154 +        tcsh 6.18.01 imported.
155 +
156 +        NetBSD's iconv imported.
157 +
158 +        libc gains strnlen(3), memrchr(3), stpncpy(3).
159 +
160 + 20120612:
161 +        BIND security update related to CVE-2012-1667.
162 +
163 +        Zero length resource records can cause BIND to crash resulting
164 +        in a DOS attack or information disclosure.
165 +
166 + 20120407:
167 +        mksh R40f (fixes regression)
168 +
169 + 20120328:
170 +        mksh R40e
171 +
172 +        Perl 5.14.2
173 +
174 + 20120229:
175 +        cpucontrol(8) and cpuctl(4) added from FreeBSD 7-stable.
176 +
177 + 20120209:
178 +        mDNSResponder 333.10 imported
179 +
180 + 20111227:
181 +        import raid5 module for GEOM, graid5(8)
182 +
183 +        This is experimental and known to use a lot of kernel
184 +        memory.
185 +
186 + 20111223:
187 +        telnetd: fix a root exploit from a fixed buffer that was not checked
188 +
189 +        pam: don't allow escape from policy path.  Exploitable in KDE, etc.
190 +
191 +        Fix pam_ssh module:
192 +
193 +        If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access
194 +        to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys.
195 +
196 +        This has to due with the way that openssl works.  It ignores unencrpted data.
197 +
198 +        Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd.
199 +
200 +        nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some
201 +        operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security
202 +        hole in things like ftpd.
203 +
204 + 20111217:
205 +        libdialog/dialog upgraded to an lgpl version. As it's not
206 +        backwardly compatable, include the old libdialog as libodialog
207 +
208 + 20111212:
209 +        mksh r40d imported
210 +
211 + 20111210:
212 +        re(4) and rl(4) updated to support new chips.
213 +
214 +        GEOM synced with FreeBSD 7-stable.
215 +
216 +        MidnightBSD GPT partition types created in sys/gpt.h and
217 +        setup in boot loader and GEOM.
218 +
219 +        amdsbwd(4) (amd watchdog for south bridge) updated to support
220 +        8xx series chipset.
221 +
222 + 20111207:
223 +        import bsd grep from FreeBSD/OpenBSD.
224 +
225 +        MK_BSD_GREP controls which grep is installed
226 +        as grep with the other as bsdgrep or gnugrep.
227 +
228 + 20111122:
229 +        mksh vR40c imported.
230 +
231 + 20111117:
232 +        BIND 9.6 ESV R5 P1
233 +
234 + 20111107:
235 +        tzdata 2011n
236 +
237 + 20111026:
238 +        mDNSResponder v320
239 +
240 +        BIND 9.6 ESV R5
241 +
242 + 20111022:
243 +        cflow 0.0.6 imported
244 +
245 + 20111020:
246 +        less v436 imported
247 +
248 +        amdsbwd(4) AMD southbridge watchdog
249 +
250 + 20111019:
251 +        awk 20110810 imported
252 +
253 +        et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
254 +        not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
255 +        testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
256 +
257 +        intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
258 +        specific CPU core.
259 +
260 + 20111017:
261 +        Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
262 +
263 +        Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
264 +
265 + 20111015:
266 +        Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
267 +        to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
268 +        process. Several new system calls were added to support this
269 +        functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
270 +        compatibility on amd64.
271 +
272 +        The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
273 +        amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
274 +        for this feature.
275 +
276 +        This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
277 +
278 + 20111004:
279 +        Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent
280 +        patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network
281 +        apps to work under the linuxolator again.
282 +
283 + 20111001:
284 +        Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is
285 +        now default and an environment variable must be set to use
286 +        active.
287 +
288 + 20110930:
289 +        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
290 +        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
291 +
292 +        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
293 +        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
294 +        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
295 +        offloading.
296 +
297 +        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
298 +        working with large raid3 sets.
299 +
300 +        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
301 +
302 + 20110929:
303 +        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
304 +
305 +        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
306 +        removed from loader.conf:
307 +        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
308 +
309 +        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
310 +        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
311 +        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
312 +
313 + 20110928:
314 +        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
315 +        files that are corrupted.
316 +
317 +        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
318 +
319 + 20110917:
320 +        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
321 +        it's in the base system.
322 +
323 + 20110914:
324 +        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
325 +
326 + 20110813:
327 +        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
328 +
329 + 20110806:
330 +        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
331 +
332 +        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
333 +        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
334 +        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
335 +        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
336 +        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
337 +        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
338 +
339 +        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
340 +        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
341 +
342 + 20110710:
343 +        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
344 +        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
345 +
346 +        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
347 +
348 + 20110709:
349 +        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
350 +        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
351 +
352 + 20110612:
353 +        Update mksh to R40
354 +
355 +        Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x.  Good to run when
356 +        updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old)
357 +
358 + 20110528:
359 +        Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x.  This affects caching resolvers.
360 +
361 + 20110526:
362 +        newfs:
363 +        Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from
364 +        16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
365 +
366 +        This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format"
367 +        hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type
368 +        have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes.  Of course
369 +        the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk.
370 +
371 + 20110521:
372 +        mport tool now has a deleteall command.  This can be used to remove
373 +        all packages from a system.
374 +
375 +        A few bugs with the perl 5.14 import have been fixed.
376 +
377 + 20110518:
378 +        Perl 5.14.0
379 +
380 + 20110517:
381 +        Sendmail 8.14.5
382 +
383 + 20110314:
384 +        DRM/DRI code updated to support newer video cards. (FreeBSD 7.1)
385 +
386 +        cdevpriv wrappers added
387 +
388 +        nss_mdns hack introduced to work around linking problem.
389 +
390 +        dnsextd fixed after update to mDNSResponder code.
391 +
392 + 20110308:
393 +        Introduce liblzma & xz 5.0.1 to the base system
394 +
395 +        Patch for OpenSSL security issue CVE-2011-0014.
396 +
397 +        "OSREVISION 4004"
398 +
399 +        nsswitch module for multicast dns (nss_mdns) added.
400 +
401 +        tzdata2011c
402 +
403 + 20110220:
404 +        cam(4) syncronized with FreeBSD 7.3.
405 +
406 + 20110219:
407 +        amdtemp(4) updated to support sensors framework.
408 +
409 + 20110217:
410 +        Perl 5.10.1 imported
411 +
412 + 20110216:
413 +        Introduce igb(4) and split Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters between
414 +        igb(4) and em(4).  Newer devices use igb(4).  The code has moved
415 +        to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has
416 +        been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64.
417 +
418 +        Update bfe(4) to support newer devices and WOL.
419 +
420 + 20110215:
421 +        age(4) added.
422 +
423 + 20110208:
424 +        BIND 9.6.3 which fixes a bug with DNSSEC records getting added.
425 +
426 + 20110206:
427 +        eeemon(4) added to monitor Asus Eee PC.
428 +
429 + 20110205:
430 +        OpenSSH 5.7p1
431 +
432 +        GNU sort 6.9 (coreutils)
433 +
434 + 20110203:
435 +        one true awk 20100523 imported
436 +
437 +        sqlite 3.7.5
438 +
439 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8q
440 +
441 + 20110202:
442 +        tcsh 6.17.00
443 +
444 +        file 5.05
445 +
446 + 20110122:
447 +        Import it(4) and lm(4), with support for Super I/O hardware monitors. This
448 +        uses the sensors framework ported by Constantine A. Murenin (GSOC2007)
449 +
450 + 20110120:
451 +        BIND 9.6.2-P3
452 +
453 +        sudo 1.7.4-p6
454 +
455 + 20110115:
456 +        Add experimental jme(4) for Jmicron ethernet devices.
457 +
458 + 20101130:
459 +        A double free exists in the SSL client ECDH handling code, when
460 +        processing specially crafted public keys with invalid prime
461 +        numbers. [CVE-2010-2939]
462 +
463 + 20101120:
464 +        Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file
465 +        systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due
466 +        to use of int types.  Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified
467 +        our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts
468 +        which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB.
469 +
470 +        newfs and growfs was also modified.
471 +
472 + 20101110:
473 +        Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel
474 +        context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration.  This affects file
475 +        systems such as procfs for instance.
476 +
477 + 20101021:
478 +        sysrc is a utility to print and modify name/value pairs in /etc/rc.conf easily.
479 +        This is similar to functions present in many linux distros. The utility was
480 +        written by Devin Teske for FreeBSD.
481 +
482 + 20100920:
483 +        bzip2 security patch for integer overflow.
484 +
485 + 20100905:
486 +        MidnightBSD RELENG_0_3 branch created.  Aggressive development continues here
487 +        for 0.4.
488 +
489 + 20100902:
490 +        Fix a security issue with libutil that allows users to bypass cpu limits in
491 +        login.conf in some cases.  This combined with OpenSSH for example can allow
492 +        the user to get more resources than they're allowed.
493 +
494 + 20100822:
495 +        Import Apple's mDNSResponder (mdnsd).
496 +
497 + 20100814:
498 +        libdispatch added to MidnightBSD.  This provides functionality found in
499 +        Mac OS X's GCD.  We do not have blocks support yet.  As this code is
500 +        licensed under Apache 2, we create a new MK_APACHE option so that
501 +        it's not required for all users to run code under a license they
502 +        may not like.
503 +
504 + 20100713:
505 +        mbuf readonly fix related to sendfile(2) data corruption.
506 +
507 + 20100704:
508 +        brainfuck(1) imported from MirBSD.
509 +
510 + 20100505:
511 +        zlib 1.2.5
512 +
513 + 20100430:
514 +        Sudo 1.7.2p6 imported
515 +
516 + 20100321:
517 +        Update zlib to 1.2.4
518 +
519 + 20100319:
520 +        Removed i586 from default i386 generic kernel.
521 +
522 + 20100317:
523 +        Update to tzdata2010e (time zones).  This includes changes in
524 +        Mexico.
525 +
526 +        Add support for several newer sound cards via hda including
527 +        ATI and Realtek chipsets.
528 +
529 + 20100313:
530 +        CPU detection has been changed.  VIA Padlock detection added.
531 +
532 + 20100312:
533 +        Fix a number of bugs and compiler warnings in libmport. Handle
534 +        plus signs in paths for mport.check-fake
535 +
536 + 20100311:
537 +        mksh R39c
538 +
539 + 20100309:
540 +        Sudo 1.7.2p5
541 +
542 +        sqlite3 3.6.23
543 +
544 +        mksh R39b
545 +
546 +        libffi (ffi) 3.0.9
547 +
548 + 20100206:
549 +        WITHOUT_LIB32 is no longer needed on AMD64.  GCC was fixed to
550 +        properly pass arguments to ld.
551 +
552 +        re(4) and rl(4) have been updated to support several new
553 +        realtek chipsets.  Performance has been improved on re(4).
554 +
555 + 20100204:
556 +        Fix a bug cropping up on AMD64 MidnightBSD with sftp
557 +        segfaulting.  
558 +
559 + 20100116:
560 +        Import ash changes from FreeBSD (bin/sh) 8-Stable.
561 +
562 +        BIND 9.6.1-P2
563 +
564 + 20100110:
565 +        Import Sendmail 8.14.4. Fix for SSL vulnerability.
566 +
567 +        posix_spawn(3) added to MidnightBSD libc.  Users may need to build and
568 +        install libc before doing a full buildworld when upating from 0.2 or
569 +        older current systems.
570 +
571 +        kqueue(2) was modified to support portions of libdispatch functionality.
572 +
573 + 20100106:
574 +        Bind security update.  Fix a bug with DNSSEC that causes negative
575 +        cache entries and thus a possible DNS cache poisoning attack.
576 +
577 +        Fix a bug in ZFS that can reset permissions on system crashes.
578 +
579 + 20091228:
580 +        amdtemp(4) was added.  It allows one to monitor to the temperature
581 +        of an AMD CPU such as a Phenom.
582 +
583 + 20091205:
584 +        OpenSSL security fix
585 +
586 +        The SSL version 3 and TLS protocols support session renegotiation without
587 +        cryptographically tying the new session parameters to the old parameters.
588 +
589 + 20091128:
590 +        OpenBSD sensors framework imported including sensorsd(8)
591 +
592 + 20091126:
593 +        OpenNTPD 4.4 import
594 +
595 +        Update OpenSSH to 5.3p1
596 +
597 +        mksh R39
598 +
599 + 20091124:
600 +        cpdup updated from DragonFly to 1.15
601 +
602 +        tzdata2009s updated with latest timezone data for November 2009.
603 +
604 + 20091010:
605 +        amd64 users should use WITHOUT_LIB32=yes in /etc/make.conf for now
606 +        to test current.
607 +
608 +        Revert unicode filename fixes from ntfs code.  This was causing chaos
609 +        on amd64 systems.
610 +
611 + 20091006:
612 +        Update timezone data with tzdata2009n with the Pakistan and
613 +        Argentina changes.
614 +
615 +        Sync several userland utilities with versions from FreeBSD 7.0 in
616 +        sbin and usr.sbin.
617 +
618 + 20090919:
619 +        Update timezone data with tzdate2009m from September 2009.
620 +
621 + 20090729:
622 +        Patch for Bind 9 security vulnerability. a dynmaic update packet
623 +        can trigger an assertion and cause named to exit
624 +
625 + 20090606:
626 +        Remove PCC from the base system.  This compiler will not work
627 +        as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment
628 +        in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future.  We're stuck
629 +        with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum.
630 +
631 +        I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is
632 +        fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base
633 +        system which makes no sense.
634 +
635 +        A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to
636 +        the kernel.  This should cut down on commands it claims to support
637 +        but does not (at the cam layer).  Found while testing ZFS on
638 +        an external device.
639 +
640 + 20090520:
641 +        The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve
642 +        compatibility with many systems.  However, there is a new
643 +        installer option in the startup section to enable it. This
644 +        makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I                thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks
645 +        out my new Phenom too.
646 +
647 + 20090502:
648 +        OpenSSH 5.2p1 import
649 +
650 +        ale(4) connected to the build. (kernel module only)
651 +
652 + 20090501:
653 +        Imported makefs utility from NetBSD/FreeBSD
654 +
655 + 20090422:
656 +        OpenSSL security update
657 +
658 +        The function ASN1_STRING_print_ex does not properly validate the lengths
659 + of BMPString or UniversalString objects before attempting to print them.
660 +
661 + 20090415:
662 +        Created a Symbol.map for libc/ohash symbols
663 +
664 +        Updated several usr/bin usr/sbin utilities.
665 +
666 +        Corrected a bug with Makefile.inc1 causing the bootstrap
667 +        tools to fail.
668 +
669 + 20090405:
670 +        xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not
671 +        yet work with USB. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then
672 +        add
673 +                Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
674 +        to your ServerLayout section.  This will cause X to use the configured
675 +        kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf
676 +
677 + 20090403:
678 +        mksh was disconnected a few day ago do to bugs with
679 +        buildworld and mports.  Now, connect it back
680 +        for use as /bin/sh with a conditional called
681 +        MK_ASH.  By default, ash is the standard /bin/sh
682 +        but we may change this later.  This will allow further
683 +        testing by users and developers of mksh without
684 +        causing an unpleasant default experience.  In the
685 +        long run, we need to fix mksh compatibility.
686 +
687 + 20090328:
688 +        Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root
689 +        and skel were changed.  mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1)
690 +        as the default /bin/sh.  Please report bugs with
691 +        ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile
692 +        as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as
693 +        an optional build parameter.  
694 +
695 +        ahd was disconnected from the lint environment until
696 +        the compiler bug is sorted (by updating gcc?)
697 +
698 +        Remove freebsd-tips from fortune files and change the
699 +        default for login and profile.
700 +
701 + 20090327:
702 +        Update libarchive to 2.5.5, tar, and add bsdcpio.
703 +
704 +        Also previously, ctriv has been connecting Perl 5.10
705 +        to the build (part of os).  This will have an impact
706 +        on mports.
707 +
708 + 20090325:
709 +        Update Bind to 9.4.3-P1
710 +
711 +        Update mksh to R36b
712 +
713 +        Update tcpdump to 3.9.8, fix libpcap to work with current.
714 +
715 +        Update pnpinfo, sync with FreeBSD.
716 +
717 + 20090115:
718 +        Fix a problem with DNSSEC and BIND.
719 +
720 + 20090110:
721 +        For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL
722 +        certificate may be interpreted as valid.  This could for example be
723 +        used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack.
724 +
725 +        Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be
726 +        affected.
727 +
728 +        Stop cross site request forgery attacks in lukemftpd
729 +
730 + 20090104:
731 +        Import GNU libreadline 5.2
732 +
733 + 20090101:
734 +        Update time zone data to 2008i.
735 +
736 + 20081231:
737 +        Correct a problem where bluetooth and netgraph sockets are not
738 +        properly initialized.
739 +
740 +        Happy 2009.
741 +
742 + 20081206:
743 +        Due to the massive change in the underlying system under way,
744 +        we're naming the next release 1.0.  The sys/sys/param.h was
745 +        changed accordingly.  ipfilter and ncurses were corrected
746 +        using __MidnightBSD__ tests in the code.  
747 +
748 +        The GENERIC kernel config was caught up on i386 today.  Consider
749 +        i386 still broken, but amd64 is running again.
750 +
751 +        mdoc.local was updated with the new MidnightBSD version info.
752 +
753 +        batt(1) was rewritten in C.  It now supports several flags and
754 +        runs about 8 times faster on my laptop.  The default output
755 +        shows the number of minutes of battery life remaining and the
756 +        percentage.  You can use -u to display the number of batteries or
757 +        -c to get script friendly output.  Consult the man page for more.
758 +
759 + 20081204:
760 +        Work has completed on importing ZFS, jemalloc, several
761 +        new devices, SCTP, updated pf, a new tempfs, linuxolator 2.6 kernel
762 +        support, improved locking for file desc., audit (openbsm),
763 +        openssl .98e, nfe, imporved intel high def audio, midi, updated
764 +        intel gigabit (em), support for several wifi cards (intel), ...
765 +
766 +        Renamed 0.3-CURRENT officially. Switched to using MidnightBSD version
767 +        data from param.h instead of the FreeBSD version.  This means
768 +        testing is now possible in the ports tree for the version
769 +        and that any ports or code relying on the FreeBSD version from
770 +        sys/sys/param.h will need to be fixed.
771 +
772 + 20080905:
773 +        update nve(4) to support new hardware.
774 +
775 + 20080801:
776 +        Import OpenBSM 1.0
777 +
778 +        Modify src/release to create 3 isos instead of 2 for packages.
779 +
780 +        etc/rc.d/firstboot now enables kdm, gnustep + slim and bsdstats.
781 +
782 +        Many ia64, alpha, powerpc items were removed.
783 +
784 +        The recent diffutils 2.8.7 import was fixed.
785 +
786 + 20080703:
787 +        pcc was not installed properly when setting DESTDIR for live cds,
788 +        or posibly jails.
789 +
790 + 20080627:
791 +        Add firmware(9), WEP, CCMP, TKIP to GENERIC.
792 +
793 +        Add glabel to GENERIC.
794 +
795 +        Intel ICH8 mobile chipset used on some iMacs included with ata.
796 +
797 +        pcc connected to the build on i386. (alternative compiler)
798 +
799 +        ath added to GENERIC.  (Atheros wireless NICs) on amd64/i386
800 +
801 + 20080528:
802 +        Sendmail 8.14.3
803 +
804 + 20080516:
805 +        ssh-vulnkey allows you to look for vulnerable ssh keys that
806 +        were generated on Debian and Ubuntu hosts over the last
807 +        few years.  sshd can block offending keys with a configuration
808 +        option.
809 +
810 +        The elf note on binaries is now set to MidnightBSD.
811 +
812 + 20080514:
813 +        Fixed a number of problems with pcc.  It is not yet connected
814 +        to the build, but usable on i386 hosts.  You may use it
815 +        by make; make install in /usr/src/usr.bin/pcc.  It will
816 +        install in /usr/local as some of the files conflict with
817 +        GCC versions. __MidnightBSD__ is defined in PCC as well.
818 +
819 +        System headers were fixed to allow pcc to compile many binaries
820 +        on MidnightBSD.  bin/cp will work now for instance.
821 +
822 + 20080430:
823 +        __MidnightBSD__ is now defined via gcc.  This can be tested
824 +        to determine we're running on MidnightBSD in the preprocessor.
825 +
826 + 20080429:
827 +        Import bind 9.4.2 with threading
828 +
829 +        libpthread (KSE) and libthr are built earlier
830 +        
831 +        pcvt(4) removed!
832 +
833 +        Alias added for core2 cpus.
834 +
835 +        Alpha and PC98 only utilities removed from usr/sbin
836 +
837 +        syslogd, adduser, rmuser, mergemaster and mailwrapper have been
838 +        improved.  See the man pages for info.
839 +
840 +        periodic scripts will not send emails with empty message bodies.
841 +        See mailwrapper fix.
842 +
843 + 20080410:
844 +        Sync cpdup with DragonFly.  Add parallel transaction support and
845 +        -l flag to line-buffer stdout and stderr.
846 +
847 + 20080406:
848 +        Import bzip2 1.05
849 +        Import OpenSSH 4.9p1
850 +
851 + 20080322:
852 +        The default umask was changed to 022.
853 +        
854 +        /usr/X11R6 paths were removed from several config files.
855 +
856 +        .mkshrc files are now installed for root.
857 +
858 + 20080316:
859 +        FIx a problem with gif0 tunnels and neighbors with IPV6.
860 +
861 + 20080312:
862 +        Add lndir from X.org.  This aides in the porting of MirPorts.
863 +
864 +        New OS versions were added to the mapage code (groff)
865 +
866 + 20080310:
867 +        Correct a buffer overflow in ppp.
868 +
869 + 20080308:
870 +        Remove /usr/X11R6 from manpath config.
871 +
872 + 20080307:
873 +        Atheros driver no longer has several options set
874 +        which corrects building in tinderbox on all three platforms.
875 +
876 +        Added a new macro to sx.h which returns true if the current
877 +        thread holds an exclusive lock on a specifix sx.
878 +
879 +        Removed OS/2's HPFS file system.   It's not maintained and
880 +        I don't know anyone using OS/2 or ecomstation these days.
881 +        My copy is in the closet collecting dust.
882 +
883 + 20080306:
884 +        Synced tinderbox with FreeBSD.  Modified it for MidnightBSD.
885 +        Developers can now use it to check src builds.
886 +
887 + 20080303:
888 +        Add mksh to /etc/shells, made some adjustments to options
889 +        for mksh builds per suggestion upstream.
890 +
891 +        USB HID table updated with modern hardware list.
892 +
893 +        Updated BSD family true (we're not in there yet)
894 +
895 +        iso3166 file updated and import of tzdata2007k for
896 +        new time zones.
897 +
898 +        Updated mksh to latest version R33.
899 +
900 + 20080228:
901 +        Remplaced the random IP id generation code with a new
902 +        version by Amit Klein.
903 +
904 + 20080221:
905 +        Sendfile write only permissions fix.

907 +        Removed some HPFS and PC98 code.
908 +
909 +        iso639 file sycned with DragonFly.
910 +
911 + 20080128:
912 +        Changed NTP configuration so that ips aren't cached
913 +        so multiple servers are used.
914 +
915 +        Fix an issue with fork() in libpthread.
916 +
917 + 20080121:
918 +        Add virtualization detection to set the HZ rate
919 +        according to a VM present.  VMWare and Parallels
920 +        should work better like this.
921 +
922 +        Change to full x11 install in sysinstall.  Add
923 +        xorg 7 support.
924 +
925 + 20080115:
926 +        Fix the handling of PTY's.  CVE-2008-0216
927 +
928 + 20080105:

930 +
931 + 20080101:
932 +        Happy New Year
933 +
934 + 20071123:
935 +        Update sendmail to 8.14.2
936 +
937 + 20071120:
938 +        Update system compiler to gcc 3.4.6.
939 +
940 + 20071023:
941 +        Updated mksh to R31d.
942 +
943 + 20070911:
944 +        Updated mksh to version R31b.
945 +
946 +        Fixed stderr output in libpthread.  Previously it was
947 +        written to stdout.
948 +
949 + 20070831:
950 +        Added dot.mkshrc file to support the recent change to
951 +        mksh from OpenBSD's ksh derived from pdksh.  
952 +
953 +        Added new firewall configuration.  ipfw is enabled by default
954 +        with a "desktop" configuration.  Consult /etc/rc.firewall
955 +        or ipfw show to see the ruleset used.  You can disable
956 +        ipfw by setting firewall_enable="NO" in /etc/rc.conf This
957 +        change only effects IPv4.  IPv6 does not have a firewall
958 +        enabled by default.
959 +
960 + 20070814:
961 +        Removed GNU tar source.  We've been using BSD tar
962 +        for awhile.
963 +
964 + 20070806:
965 +        Finished removing umapfs and autofs from the tree.
966 +
967 + 20070804:
968 +        BIND and Tcpdump have been patched for recent vulnerabilities.
969 +
970 +        We switched to BSD cpio (pax).
971 +
972 + 20070719:
973 +        Imported cpdup from DragonFly as /bin/cpdup
974 +
975 + 20070716:
976 +        Update GNU cpio to 2.8.
977 +
978 + 20070410:
979 +        cvs was updated to 1.12.13.  cvsbug was removed.
980 +        cvs now behaves similarly to DragonFly's cvs with
981 +        most of their local changes.  
982 +
983 + 20070409:
984 +        RELENG_0_1 was created. More aggresive changes will
985 +        continue here.
986 +
987 + 20070406:
988 +        Back out propolice.  propolice caused several problems
989 +        with our threading libraries libthr and libpthread.  
990 +        curthread was often NULL after the patch and many
991 +        multithreaded applications would crash.  We plan to
992 +        work on either bringing in gcc 4.1 or developing a new
993 +        patch which also corrects our threading issues later.
994 +
995 +        It is more important to have a stable system for our
996 +        mport work and other projects at this time.
997 +
998 +        This is not a clean removal.  It is recommended that you
999 +        have a recently SNAP CD handy.  You can either reinstall
1000 +        or perform a make buildworld and make buildkernel and
1001 +        make installkernel.  Reboot on the cd and copy the contents
1002 +        of /bin, /sbin, /lib, /libexec, and /usr/bin, /usr/sbin,
1003 +        /usr/lib, and /usr/libexec to the respective directories on
1004 +        your disk.  Then you should be able to boot into single user
1005 +        mode and run make installworld.  You will need to run
1006 +        chflags noschg on some of the files if you can't overwrite
1007 +        them.
1008 +
1009 +        You will get __guard missing errors since we had to remove
1010 +        this from libc.
1011 +
1012 +        You will need to rebuild any ports built while propolice was
1013 +        installed.
1014 +
1015 + 20070401:
1016 +        Importing propolice into MidnightBSD. Propolice is going to
1017 +        provide us with much greater security and stability in the
1018 +        long run. If upgrading from a pre-propolice system, please
1019 +        follow the these instructions:
1020 +
1021 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libc && make obj && make && make install
1022 +        cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc && make obj && make && make install
1023 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libpthread && make obj && make && make install
1024 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libthr && make obj && make && make install
1025 +        buildworld and kernel
1026 +
1027 +        It is adviced that any mports which were installed and/or built
1028 +        prior to the propolice update also be updated. If any errors
1029 +        or issue are encounted, please contact security@midnightbsd.org
1030 +        and we will be sure to investigate and come up with an expeditious
1031 +        fix.
1032 +
1033 + 20070314:
1034 +        Remove send-pr from src.
1035 +
1036 +        Switch to NetBSD's gzip.
1037 +
1038 +        Bump MBSD minor revision.
1039 +
1040 + 20070313:
1041 +        Imported OpenSSH 4.6p1.
1042 +
1043 +        Imported FreeBSD's libarchive and updated tar to work with it.
1044 +
1045 +        Disabled debug statements cluttering up /var/log/messages for
1046 +        the tcp autobuf patch applied previously.
1047 +
1048 + 20070312:
1049 +        Synced several audio changes from FreeBSD 6.1. Removed the
1050 +        BSD Daemon files from src/share.  
1051 +
1052 + 20070308:
1053 +        Added mfi which supports LSI Logic MegaRAID SAS devices including
1054 +        the Dell perc5i.
1055 +
1056 + 20070206:
1057 +        Imported OpenBSD's sudo into source. Please install
1058 +        /usr/src/usr.bin/sudo/lib first before building.
1059 +
1060 +        Those who install from a snapshot after this date
1061 +        will not be effected.
1062 +
1063   20070119:
1064          Added audit group.  Be sure to add audit to your /etc/group file
1065          before installing world.
# Line 14 | Line 1071 | Items affecting the mports and packages system can be

1074 <        For stability and compatibility reasons, it was decided that MidnightBSD        sync with FreeBSD 6.1 Release.  Nearly every change between the original        fork date of February 24, 2006 and the release of FreeBSD 6.1 in May            2006 will be merged.  Beyond this, MidnightBSD will be a "real" fork and        will not sync every little change with FreeBSD.
