the network can disrupt routing. |

TCP Resassemly resource exhaustion bug: |
21 |
+ |
There is a mistake with the introduction of VNET, which converted the |
22 |
+ |
global limit on the number of segments that could belong to reassembly |
23 |
+ |
queues into a per-VNET limit. Because mbufs are allocated from a |
24 |
+ |
global pool, in the presence of a sufficient number of VNETs, the |
25 |
+ |
total number of mbufs attached to reassembly queues can grow to the |
26 |
+ |
total number of mbufs in the system, at which point all network |
27 |
+ |
traffic would cease. |
28 |

OpenSSH |
31 |

|
32 |

Fix two security vulnerabilities: |
33 |
+ |
OpenSSH clients does not correctly verify DNS SSHFP records when a server |
34 |
+ |
offers a certificate. [CVE-2014-2653] |
35 |
+ |
|
36 |
+ |
OpenSSH servers which are configured to allow password authentication |
37 |
+ |
using PAM (default) would allow many password attempts. A bug allows |
38 |
+ |
MaxAuthTries to be bypassed. [CVE-2015-5600] |
39 |
+ |
|
40 |
+ |
|
41 |

20160725: |
49 |
+ |
Import reallocarray from OpenBSD's libc. |
50 |
+ |
|
51 |
+ |
The reallocarray() function is similar to realloc() except it operates on |
52 |
+ |
nmemb members of size size and checks for integer overflow in the |
53 |
+ |
calculation nmemb * size. |
54 |
+ |
|
55 |
+ |
20150722: |
56 |

Fix a bug where TCP connections transitioning to LAST_ACK |
57 |
+ |
state can get stuck. This can result in a denial of service. |
58 |
+ |
|
59 |
+ |
20150715: |
60 |
+ |
libmport now supports @shell and @sample in plists. This means that |
61 |
+ |
a shell port can automatically add an entry to /etc/shells and remove |
62 |
+ |
it upon uninstallation. For sample files, a copy is made without the |
63 |
+ |
.sample extension if one does not exist and it is removed automatically |
64 |
+ |
only if the md5 hash of the two files is the same. |

68 |

|
69 |
+ |
20150702: |
70 |
+ |
ZFS in MidnightBSD now supports lz4 compression. You can enable it |
71 |
+ |
with zfs set compression=lz4 pool/path. |
72 |
+ |
|
73 |
+ |
Verify it's working with |
74 |
+ |
zfs get compressratio pool/path |
75 |
+ |
du -h -s * |
76 |
+ |
|
77 |
+ |
Note you must write new data when turning on compression to see |
78 |
+ |
changes. Existing files are not compressed. |
79 |
+ |
|
80 |
+ |
Note: While we used the same basic implementation of lz4 that |
81 |
+ |
FreeBSD and OpenZFS uses, we did not yet implement features support |
82 |
+ |
and the zfs version still reports 28. This may come in a future update |
83 |
+ |
to ZFS. |
84 |
+ |
|
85 |
+ |
20150621: |
86 |
+ |
libmport now automatically stops services when deleting packages. |
87 |
+ |
|
88 |
+ |
The package must have installed an rc.d script in /usr/local/etc |
89 |
+ |
for this to work. This is equivalent to running service <name> onestop |
90 |
+ |
|
91 |
+ |
20150618: |
92 |
+ |
Sendmail |
93 |
+ |
|
94 |
+ |
With the recent changes to OpenSSL to block 512 bit certificates, |
95 |
+ |
sendmail can't connect with TLS to some servers. |
96 |
+ |
|
97 |
+ |
Increase the default size to 1024 bit for client connections to |
98 |
+ |
match the server configuration. |
99 |
+ |
|
100 |
+ |
ZFS |
101 |
+ |
|
102 |
+ |
Added ZFS TRIM support which is enabled by default. To disable |
103 |
+ |
ZFS TRIM support set vfs.zfs.trim.enabled=0 in loader.conf. |
104 |
+ |
|
105 |
+ |
Creating new ZFS pools and adding new devices to existing pools |
106 |
+ |
first performs a full device level TRIM which can take a significant |
107 |
+ |
amount of time. The sysctl vfs.zfs.vdev.trim_on_init can be set to 0 |
108 |
+ |
to disable this behaviour. |
109 |
+ |
|
110 |
+ |
ZFS TRIM requires the underlying device support BIO_DELETE which |
111 |
+ |
is currently provided by methods such as ATA TRIM and SCSI UNMAP |
112 |
+ |
via CAM, which are typically supported by SSD's. |
113 |
+ |
|
114 |
+ |
Stats for ZFS TRIM can be monitored by looking at the sysctl's |
115 |
+ |
under kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim. |
116 |
+ |
|
117 |
+ |
rc.d |
118 |
+ |
|
119 |
+ |
Reworked handling of cleanvar and FILESYSTEMS so that FILESYSTEMS |
120 |
+ |
implies everything is mounted and ready to go. |
121 |
+ |
|
122 |
+ |
Changed how ip6addressctl maps IPv6 on startup. |

The previous fix for IGMP had an overflow issue. This has been corrected. |
141 |
+ |
|
142 |

ipv6: The Neighbor Discover Protocol allows a local router to advertise a |
143 |

Fix two security vulnerabilities. |
159 |

|
160 |
+ |
1. BIND servers which are configured to perform DNSSEC validation and which |
161 |
+ |
are using managed keys (which occurs implicitly when using |
162 |
+ |
"dnssec-validation auto;" or "dnssec-lookaside auto;") may exhibit |
163 |
+ |
unpredictable behavior due to the use of an improperly initialized |
164 |

165 |
+ |
|
166 |
+ |
CVE-2015-1349 |
167 |
+ |
|
168 |
+ |
2. An integer overflow in computing the size of IGMPv3 data buffer can result |
169 |
+ |
in a buffer which is too small for the requested operation. |
170 |
+ |
|
171 |
+ |
This can result in a DOS attack. |
172 |
+ |
|
173 |

20141211: |

Fix a security issue with file and libmagic that can allow |

Fix several security vulnerabilities in routed, rtsold, |
196 |
+ |
and namei with respect to Capsicum sandboxes looking up |
197 |
+ |
nonexistent path names and leaking memory. |
198 |
+ |
|
199 |
+ |
The input path in routed(8) will accept queries from any source and |
200 |
+ |
attempt to answer them. However, the output path assumes that the |
201 |
+ |
destination address for the response is on a directly connected |
202 |
+ |
network. |
203 |
+ |
|
204 |
+ |
Due to a missing length check in the code that handles DNS parameters, |
205 |
+ |
a malformed router advertisement message can result in a stack buffer |
206 |
+ |
overflow in rtsold(8). |

nullfs(5) |
343 |
+ |
|
344 |
+ |
The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not |
345 |
+ |
check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same |
346 |
+ |
nullfs instance. It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a |
347 |
+ |
location in one nullfs instance to a file in another, as long as the |
348 |
+ |
underlying (source) filesystem is the same. |
349 |
+ |
|
350 |

ifioctl |
351 |
+ |
|
352 |
+ |
As is commonly the case, the IPv6 and ATM network layer ioctl request |
353 |
+ |
handlers are written in such a way that an unrecognized request is |
354 |
+ |
passed on unmodified to the link layer, which will either handle it or |
355 |
+ |
return an error code. |
356 |
+ |
|
357 |
+ |
Network interface drivers, however, assume that the SIOCSIFADDR, |
358 |
+ |
SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been |
359 |
+ |
handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input |
360 |
+ |
validation or verify the caller's credentials. Typical link-layer |
361 |
+ |
actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up" |
362 |
+ |
and resetting the underlying hardware. |
