5  
6 +        The padding check in AES-NI CBC MAC was rewritten to be in constant time
7 +        by making sure that always the same bytes are read and compared against
8 +        either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer checked that there was
9 +        enough data to have both the MAC and padding bytes. [CVE-2016-2107]
10 +
11 +        An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
12 +        Base64 encoding of binary data. [CVE-2016-2105]
13 +
14 +        An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function, however it is
15 +        believed that there can be no overflows in internal code due to this problem.
16 +        [CVE-2016-2106]
17 +
18 +        When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
19 +        a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
20 +        potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
21 +        [CVE-2016-2109]
22 +
23 + 20160412:
24 +        0.8 stable branch created. Continue development as 0.9.
25 +
26 +        Fix several issues with wait6 system call addition.
27 +
28 + 20160409:
29 +        libmport now supports two new plist formats:
30 +        @(root,wheel,4775) myfile
31 +        @dir(root,wheel,775) mydir
32 +
33 +        On delete, absoluate paths are now handled properly.
34 +
35 + 20160317:
36 +        OpenSSH doesn't have the luck of the Irish.
37 +
38 +        Fix a security issue with OpenSSH X11 forwarding that can allow an attacker
39 +        run shell commands on the call to xauth.
40 +
41 +        Incorrect argument validation in sysarch(2)
42 +
43 +        A special combination of sysarch(2) arguments, specify a request to
44 +        uninstall a set of descriptors from the LDT.  The start descriptor
45 +        is cleared and the number of descriptors are provided.  Due to invalid
46 +        use of a signed intermediate value in the bounds checking during argument
47 +        validity verification, unbound zero'ing of the process LDT and adjacent
48 +        memory can be initiated from usermode.
49 +
50 +        Patch obtained from FreeBSD.
51 +
52 + 20160229:
53 +        top now displays information on ZFS arc cache.
54 +
55 + 20160228:
56 +        llvm + clang 3.3 is now the default compiler in MidnightBSD.
57 +
58 + 20160222:
59 +        Introduce pipe2 to linux emulation layer.
60 +
61 + 20160114:
62 +        OpenSSL
63 +
64 +        The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer dereference
65 +        if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS algorithm and absent
66 +        mask generation function parameter. [CVE-2015-3194]
67 +
68 +        When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure, OpenSSL will leak
69 +        memory. [CVE-2015-3195]
70 +
71 +        If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then the values
72 +        are incorrectly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure.  [CVE-2015-3196]
73 +
74 +        Fix security on bsnmpd configuration file during installation.
75 +
76 +        TCP MD5 signature denial of service
77 +
78 +        A programming error in processing a TCP connection with both TCP_MD5SIG
79 +        and TCP_NOOPT socket options may lead to kernel crash.
80 +
81 +        SCTP
82 +
83 +        A lack of proper input checks in the ICMPv6 processing in the SCTP stack
84 +        can lead to either a failed kernel assertion or to a NULL pointer
85 +        dereference.  In either case, a kernel panic will follow.
86 +
87 + 20160102:
88 +        Happy New Year
89 +
90 + 20151101:
91 +        Increase kern.ipc.somaxconn default to 256.
92 +
93 + 20151017:
94 +        Add initial statistics api to libmport and a driver to print
95 +        it in mport(1).
96 +
97 + 20151002:
98 +        Revised rpcbind(8) patch to fix issues with NIS
99 +
100 + 20150930:
101 +        In rpcbind(8), netbuf structures are copied directly, which would result in
102 +        two netbuf structures that reference to one shared address buffer.  When one
103 +        of the two netbuf structures is freed, access to the other netbuf structure
104 +        would result in an undefined result that may crash the rpcbind(8) daemon.
105 +
106 + 20150926:
107 +        libmport now supports @preexec, @postexec, @preunexec and @postunexec
108 +        to replace @exec and @unexec.  
109 +
110 +        pre exec runs afer pre-install scripts but before actual installation
111 +
112 +        post exec runs after install but before post install scripts and
113 +        pkg message.
114 +
115 +        pre unexec runs before pre uninstall scripts
116 +
117 +        post unexec runs before de-install scripts and after file removal.
118 +
119 + 20150917:
120 +        Fix kqueue write events for files > 2GB
121 +
122 + 20150825:
123 +        kernel:
124 +        fix a security issue on amd64 where the GS segment CPU register can be changed via
125 +        userland value in kernel mode by using an IRET with #SS or #NP exceptions.
126 +
127 +        openssh:
128 +        A programming error in the privileged monitor process of the sshd(8)
129 +        service may allow the username of an already-authenticated user to be
130 +        overwritten by the unprivileged child process.
131 +
132 +        A use-after-free error in the privileged monitor process of he sshd(8)
133 +        service may be deterministically triggered by the actions of a
134 +        compromised unprivileged child process.
135 +
136 +        A use-after-free error in the session multiplexing code in the sshd(8)
137 +        service may result in unintended termination of the connection.
138 +
139 + 20150818:
140 +        expat security fix
141 +
142 + 20150815:
143 +        libc changes:
144 +        setmode(3) now returns errno consistently on error.
145 +        libc will compile without error using clang
146 +
147 + 20150814:
148 +        wait6 system call added.
149 +
150 +        date(1) now handles non numeric numbers passed to -r
151 +        like GNU coreutils for improved compatibility.
152 +
153 + 20150811:
154 +        ata(4) AMD Hudson2 SATA controller support.
155 +        Intel lynxpoint SATA.
156 +
157 +        Fix some const warnings when building several device drivers
158 +        with llvm/clang.
159 +
160 +        Sync cas(4) with FreeBSD 9-stable.
161 +
162 +        Fix some minor issues with ath(4).
163 +
164 + 20150809:
165 +        xz 5.0.8
166 +
167 + 20150808:
168 +        libmport now logs installation and removal of packages to syslog.
169 +
170 + 20150805:
171 +        routed - fix a potential security issue where traffic from outside
172 +        the network can disrupt routing.
173 +
174 +        bsd patch - fix a bug with ed(1) scripts allowing unsanitized input
175 +        to run.
176 +
177 + 20150802:
178 +        jansson 2.7 library added. (libjansson is a JSON library in C)
179 +
180 + 20150728:
181 +        Heimdal 1.5.2 (kerberos implementation)
182 +
183 +        OpenSSL 1.0.1o
184 +
185 +        cpucontrol(8) now supports VIA CPUs. Synced with FreeBSD 9.2.
186 +
187 +        TCP Resassemly resource exhaustion bug:
188 +        There is a mistake with the introduction of VNET, which converted the
189 +        global limit on the number of segments that could belong to reassembly
190 +        queues into a per-VNET limit.  Because mbufs are allocated from a
191 +        global pool, in the presence of a sufficient number of VNETs, the
192 +        total number of mbufs attached to reassembly queues can grow to the
193 +        total number of mbufs in the system, at which point all network
194 +        traffic would cease.
195 +        Obtained from: FreeBSD 8
196 +
197 +        OpenSSH
198 +
199 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities:
200 +        OpenSSH clients does not correctly verify DNS SSHFP records when a server
201 +        offers a certificate. [CVE-2014-2653]
202 +
203 +        OpenSSH servers which are configured to allow password authentication
204 +        using PAM (default) would allow many password attempts. A bug allows
205 +        MaxAuthTries to be bypassed. [CVE-2015-5600]
206 +
207 +
208 +        Switch to bsdpatch (from FreeBSD & OpenBSD)
209 +
210 + 20150726:
211 +        BSD Sort updated
212 +
213 +        sqlite 3.8.10.2
214 +
215 + 20150725:
216 +        Import reallocarray from OpenBSD's libc.  
217 +
218 +        The reallocarray() function is similar to realloc() except it operates on
219 +        nmemb members of size size and checks for integer overflow in the
220 +        calculation nmemb * size.
221 +
222 + 20150722:
223 +        Fix a bug where TCP connections transitioning to LAST_ACK
224 +        state can get stuck. This can result in a denial of service.
225 +
226 + 20150715:
227 +        libmport now supports @shell and @sample in plists. This means that
228 +        a shell port can automatically add an entry to /etc/shells and remove
229 +        it upon uninstallation. For sample files, a copy is made without the
230 +        .sample extension if one does not exist and it is removed automatically
231 +        only if the md5 hash of the two files is the same.
232 +
233 + 20150709:
234 +        flex 2.5.39
235 +
236 + 20150702:
237 +        ZFS in MidnightBSD now supports lz4 compression. You can enable it
238 +        with zfs set compression=lz4 pool/path.
239 +
240 +        Verify it's working with
241 +        zfs get compressratio pool/path
242 +        du -h -s *
243 +
244 +        Note you must write new data when turning on compression to see
245 +        changes. Existing files are not compressed.
246 +
247 +        Note: While we used the same basic implementation of lz4 that
248 +        FreeBSD and OpenZFS uses, we did not yet implement features support
249 +        and the zfs version still reports 28. This may come in a future update
250 +        to ZFS.
251 +
252 + 20150621:
253 +        libmport now automatically stops services when deleting packages.
254 +
255 +        The package must have installed an rc.d script in /usr/local/etc
256 +        for this to work. This is equivalent to running service <name> onestop
257 +
258 + 20150618:
259 +        Sendmail
260 +
261 +        With the recent changes to OpenSSL to block 512 bit certificates,
262 +        sendmail can't connect with TLS to some servers.
263 +
264 +        Increase the default size to 1024 bit for client connections to
265 +        match the server configuration.
266 +
267 +        ZFS
268 +
269 +        Added ZFS TRIM support which is enabled by default. To disable
270 +        ZFS TRIM support set vfs.zfs.trim.enabled=0 in loader.conf.
271 +
272 +        Creating new ZFS pools and adding new devices to existing pools
273 +        first performs a full device level TRIM which can take a significant
274 +        amount of time. The sysctl vfs.zfs.vdev.trim_on_init can be set to 0
275 +        to disable this behaviour.
276 +
277 +        ZFS TRIM requires the underlying device support BIO_DELETE which
278 +        is currently provided by methods such as ATA TRIM and SCSI UNMAP
279 +        via CAM, which are typically supported by SSD's.
280 +
281 +        Stats for ZFS TRIM can be monitored by looking at the sysctl's
282 +        under kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim.
283 +
284 +        rc.d
285 +
286 +        Reworked handling of cleanvar and FILESYSTEMS so that FILESYSTEMS
287 +        implies everything is mounted and ready to go.
288 +
289 +        Changed how ip6addressctl maps IPv6 on startup.
290 +
291 + 20150613:
292 +        tzdata 2015d
293 +
294 + 20150612:
295 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8zg
296 +
297 + 20150419:
298 +        MidnightBSD 0.6 stable branch created. Continue 0.7
299 +        development.
300 +
301 + 20150418:
302 +        sqlite 3.8.9
303 +
304 + 20150407:
305 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities:
306 +
307 +        The previous fix for IGMP had an overflow issue. This has been corrected.
308 +
309 +        ipv6: The Neighbor Discover Protocol allows a local router to advertise a
310 +        suggested Current Hop Limit value of a link, which will replace
311 +        Current Hop Limit on an interface connected to the link on the MidnightBSD
312 +        system.
313 +
314 + 20150319:
315 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8.zf
316 +
317 +        mksh R50e
318 +
319 +        Apple mDNSResponder 561.1.1
320 +
321 + 20150306:
322 +        Upgrade OpenSSL to 0.9.8ze
323 +
324 + 20150225:
325 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
326 +
327 +        1. BIND servers which are configured to perform DNSSEC validation and which
328 +        are using managed keys (which occurs implicitly when using
329 +        "dnssec-validation auto;" or "dnssec-lookaside auto;") may exhibit
330 +        unpredictable behavior due to the use of an improperly initialized
331 +        variable.
332 +
333 +        CVE-2015-1349
334 +
335 +        2. An integer overflow in computing the size of IGMPv3 data buffer can result
336 +        in a buffer which is too small for the requested operation.
337 +
338 +        This can result in a DOS attack.
339 +
340 + 20141211:
341 +        Fix a security issue with file and libmagic that can allow
342 +        an attacker to create a denial of service attack on any
343 +        program that uses libmagic.
344 +
345 + 20141109:
346 +        Fix building perl during buildworld when the GDBM port is installed.
347 +
348 + 20141106:
349 +        tzdata 2014i
350 +
351 + 20141102:
352 +        serf 1.3.8
353 +
354 + 20141031:
355 +        tnftp 20141031 fixes a security vulnerability with tnftp,
356 +        CVE-2014-8517.
357 +
358 + 20141028:
359 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8zc
360 +
361 + 20141021:
362 +        Fix several security vulnerabilities in routed, rtsold,
363 +        and namei with respect to Capsicum sandboxes looking up
364 +        nonexistent path names and leaking memory.
365 +
366 +        The input path in routed(8) will accept queries from any source and
367 +        attempt to answer them.  However, the output path assumes that the
368 +        destination address for the response is on a directly connected
369 +        network.
370 +
371 +        Due to a missing length check in the code that handles DNS parameters,
372 +        a malformed router advertisement message can result in a stack buffer
373 +        overflow in rtsold(8).
374 +
375 + 20141011:
376 +        mksh R50d - fix field splitting regression and null
377 +        pointer dereference
378 +
379 +        xz 5.0.7
380 +
381 +        OpenSSH 6.6p1
382 +
383 + 20141004:
384 +        mksh R50c - security update for environment var bug with
385 +        foo vs foo+    
386 +
387 + 20141002:
388 +        sqlite 3.8.6
389 +
390 +        sudo 1.7.8 - some issues with the current version, but we're slowly
391 +        getting up to date.
392 +
393 + 20141001:
394 +        mksh R50b
395 +
396 +        libmport now supports plist commands @dir, @owner, @group, @mode.
397 +
398 +        sudo 1.7.6p2
399 +
400 + 20140916:
401 +        Fix a security issue with TCP SYN.
402 +
403 +        When a segment with the SYN flag for an already existing connection arrives,
404 +        the TCP stack tears down the connection, bypassing a check that the
405 +        sequence number in the segment is in the expected window.
406 +
407 + 20140909:
408 +        Fixed a bug with our clearenv(3) implementation that caused segfaults
409 +        with some programs including Dovecot.
410 +
411 +        OpenSSL security patch:
412 +
413 +        The receipt of a specifically crafted DTLS handshake message may cause OpenSSL
414 +        to consume large amounts of memory. [CVE-2014-3506]
415 +
416 +        The receipt of a specifically crafted DTLS packet could cause OpenSSL to leak
417 +        memory. [CVE-2014-3507]
418 +
419 +        A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
420 +        X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information from
421 +        the stack. [CVE-2014-3508]
422 +
423 +        OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject to
424 +        a denial of service attack. [CVE-2014-3510]
425 +
426 + 20140902:
427 +        We're now 0.6-CURRENT
428 +
429 +        Update USB quirks to support K70 Corsair keyboard, and several
430 +        other devices.
431 +
432 + 20140827:
433 +        Perl 5.18.2
434 +
435 + 20140728:
436 +        Jails now run shutdown scripts.
437 +
438 + 20140710:
439 +        Fix a vulnerability in the control message API. A buffer is not properly cleared
440 +        before sharing with userland.
441 +
442 + 20140701:
443 +        MKSH R50
444 +
445 + 20140630:
446 +        File 5.19
447 +
448 + 20140605:
449 +        Fix four security issues with OpenSSL
450 +
451 + 20140604:
452 +        Sendmail failed to properly set close-on-exec for open file descriptors.
453 +
454 +        ktrace page fault kernel trace entries were set to an incorrect size which resulted
455 +        in a leak of information.
456 +
457 + 20140430:
458 +        Fix a TCP reassembly bug that could result in a DOS attack
459 +        of the system. It may be possible to obtain portions
460 +        of kernel memory as well.
461 +
462 + 20140411:
463 +        Update zlib to 1.2.7
464 +
465 + 20140122:
466 +        Support for username with length 32. Previous limit was 16
467 +
468 + 20140114:
469 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
470 +
471 +        bsnmpd contains a stack overflow when sent certain queries.
472 +
473 +        bind 9.8 when using NSEC3-signed zones zones, will crash with special
474 +        crafted packets.
475 +
476 + 20131228:
477 +        Imported FreeBSD 9.2 usb stack (plus z87 patches from stable)
478 +
479 +        Updated em(4), igb(4) and ixgbe(4)
480 +
481 +        MidnightBSD now works with Z87 Intel chipsets.
482 +
483 + 20131207:
484 +        Remove sparc64 architecture. It hasn't been working for awhile
485 +        and it's not useful for desktops anymore.
486 +
487 + 20131205:
488 +        OpenSSH 6.4p1
489 +
490 + 20131203:
491 +        Perl 5.18.1 imported.
492 +
493 +        Update less to v458
494 +
495 + 20131130:
496 +        Remove named from base. We still include the client utilities for
497 +        now until replacements can be found.
498 +
499 + 20131004:
500 +        rarpd supports vlan(4) and has a pid flag. (from FreeBSD)
501 +
502 + 20130917:
503 +        Support for 65,536 routing tables was added.  A new fib specific
504 +        field has been added to mbuf.  This is an increase from 16.
505 +
506 + 20130910:
507 +        Security updates: (kern.osreldate 5001)
508 +
509 +        nullfs(5)
510 +
511 +        The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not
512 +        check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same
513 +        nullfs instance.  It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a
514 +        location in one nullfs instance to a file in another, as long as the
515 +        underlying (source) filesystem is the same.
516 +
517 +        ifioctl
518 +
519 +        As is commonly the case, the IPv6 and ATM network layer ioctl request
520 +        handlers are written in such a way that an unrecognized request is
521 +        passed on unmodified to the link layer, which will either handle it or
522 +        return an error code.
523 +
524 +        Network interface drivers, however, assume that the SIOCSIFADDR,
525 +        SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been
526 +        handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input
527 +        validation or verify the caller's credentials.  Typical link-layer
528 +        actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up"
529 +        and resetting the underlying hardware.
530 +
531 + 20130824:
532 +        Fix a bug in sendmail 8.14.7 that interferes with how it
533 +        handles AAAA records interoperating with Microsoft DNS servers.
534 +        FreeBSD has already reported this to Sendmail and a fix
535 +        will be included in the next release.
536 +
537 +        Subversion 1.8.1 is now in the base system as a static
538 +        binary.  It has limited functionality, but can be used to
539 +        checkout/commit code.  It is named svnlite.
540 +
541 + 20130822:
542 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
543 +
544 +        Fix an integer overflow in IP_MSFILTER (IP MULTICAST).
545 +        This could be exploited to read memory by a user process.
546 +
547 +        When initializing the SCTP state cookie being sent in INIT-ACK chunks,
548 +        a buffer allocated from the kernel stack is not completely initialized.
549 +
550 +        Import xz 5.0.4
551 +
552 +        Import sqlite 3.7.17
553 +

557 +        mksh R48 imported.
558 +
559 +        Sendmail 8.14.7 imported.
560 +
561 + 20130717:
562 +        libmport bug was fixed causing hash verification to fail.
563 +
564 +        virtio(4) imported from FreeBSD 9-stable. SCSI support not
565 +        included.
566 +
567 + 20130612:
568 +        RELENG_0_4 created for 0.4. Development continues on 0.5.
569 +
570 + 20130402:
571 +        Update BIND and OpenSSL to resolve security advisories.
572 +
573 + 20130305:
574 +        MKSH R44 imported.
575 +
576 + 20130213:
577 +        MKSH R42b imported
578 +
579 + 20130211:
580 +        MKSH R42 imported
581 +
582 + 20130125:
583 +        MKSH R41 imported
584 +
585 + 20130122:
586 +        OpenSSH 5.8p2 imported
587 +
588 +        SQLite 3.7.15.2 imported
589 +
590 +        Fixed a longstanding bug in libmport extrating new index files.
591 +
592 + 20120710:
593 +        BSD licensed sort imported from FreeBSD-CURRENT
594 +
595 +        For now, GNU sort is installed as gnusort, but it will
596 +        go away in time.
597 +
598 + 20120708:
599 +        tcsh 6.18.01 imported.
600 +
601 +        NetBSD's iconv imported.
602 +
603 +        libc gains strnlen(3), memrchr(3), stpncpy(3).
604 +
605 + 20120612:
606 +        BIND security update related to CVE-2012-1667.
607 +
608 +        Zero length resource records can cause BIND to crash resulting
609 +        in a DOS attack or information disclosure.
610 +
611 + 20120407:
612 +        mksh R40f (fixes regression)
613 +
614 + 20120328:
615 +        mksh R40e
616 +
617 +        Perl 5.14.2
618 +
619 + 20120229:
620 +        cpucontrol(8) and cpuctl(4) added from FreeBSD 7-stable.
621 +
622 + 20120209:
623 +        mDNSResponder 333.10 imported
624 +
625 + 20111227:
626 +        import raid5 module for GEOM, graid5(8)
627 +
628 +        This is experimental and known to use a lot of kernel
629 +        memory.
630 +
631 + 20111223:
632 +        telnetd: fix a root exploit from a fixed buffer that was not checked
633 +
634 +        pam: don't allow escape from policy path.  Exploitable in KDE, etc.
635 +
636 +        Fix pam_ssh module:
637 +
638 +        If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access
639 +        to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys.
640 +
641 +        This has to due with the way that openssl works.  It ignores unencrpted data.
642 +
643 +        Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd.
644 +
645 +        nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some
646 +        operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security
647 +        hole in things like ftpd.
648 +
649 + 20111217:
650 +        libdialog/dialog upgraded to an lgpl version. As it's not
651 +        backwardly compatable, include the old libdialog as libodialog
652 +
653 + 20111212:
654 +        mksh r40d imported
655 +
656 + 20111210:
657 +        re(4) and rl(4) updated to support new chips.
658 +
659 +        GEOM synced with FreeBSD 7-stable.
660 +
661 +        MidnightBSD GPT partition types created in sys/gpt.h and
662 +        setup in boot loader and GEOM.
663 +
664 +        amdsbwd(4) (amd watchdog for south bridge) updated to support
665 +        8xx series chipset.
666 +
667 + 20111207:
668 +        import bsd grep from FreeBSD/OpenBSD.
669 +
670 +        MK_BSD_GREP controls which grep is installed
671 +        as grep with the other as bsdgrep or gnugrep.
672 +
673 + 20111122:
674 +        mksh vR40c imported.
675 +
676 + 20111117:
677 +        BIND 9.6 ESV R5 P1
678 +
679 + 20111107:
680 +        tzdata 2011n
681 +
682 + 20111026:
683 +        mDNSResponder v320
684 +
685 +        BIND 9.6 ESV R5
686 +
687 + 20111022:
688 +        cflow 0.0.6 imported
689 +
690 + 20111020:
691 +        less v436 imported
692 +
693 +        amdsbwd(4) AMD southbridge watchdog
694 +
695 + 20111019:
696 +        awk 20110810 imported
697 +
698 +        et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
699 +        not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
700 +        testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
701 +
702 +        intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
703 +        specific CPU core.
704 +
705 + 20111017:
706 +        Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
707 +
708 +        Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
709 +
710 + 20111015:
711 +        Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
712 +        to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
713 +        process. Several new system calls were added to support this
714 +        functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
715 +        compatibility on amd64.
716 +
717 +        The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
718 +        amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
719 +        for this feature.
720 +
721 +        This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
722 +
723 + 20111004:
724 +        Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent
725 +        patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network
726 +        apps to work under the linuxolator again.
727 +
728 + 20111001:
729 +        Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is
730 +        now default and an environment variable must be set to use
731 +        active.
732 +
733 + 20110930:
734 +        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
735 +        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
736 +
737 +        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
738 +        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
739 +        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
740 +        offloading.
741 +
742 +        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
743 +        working with large raid3 sets.
744 +
745 +        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
746 +
747 + 20110929:
748 +        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
749 +
750 +        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
751 +        removed from loader.conf:
752 +        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
753 +
754 +        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
755 +        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
756 +        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
757 +
758 + 20110928:
759 +        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
760 +        files that are corrupted.
761 +
762 +        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
763 +
764 + 20110917:
765 +        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
766 +        it's in the base system.
767 +
768 + 20110914:
769 +        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
770 +
771 + 20110813:
772 +        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
773 +
774 + 20110806:
775 +        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
776 +
777 +        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
778 +        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
779 +        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
780 +        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
781 +        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
782 +        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
783 +
784 +        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
785 +        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
786 +
787 + 20110710:
788 +        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
789 +        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
790 +
791 +        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
792 +
793 + 20110709:
794 +        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
795 +        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
796 +
797 + 20110612:
798 +        Update mksh to R40
799 +
800 +        Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x.  Good to run when
801 +        updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old)
802 +
803 + 20110528:
804 +        Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x.  This affects caching resolvers.
805 +
806 + 20110526:
807 +        newfs:
808 +        Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from
809 +        16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
810 +
811 +        This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format"
812 +        hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type
813 +        have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes.  Of course
814 +        the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk.
815 +
816 + 20110521:
817 +        mport tool now has a deleteall command.  This can be used to remove
818 +        all packages from a system.
819 +
820 +        A few bugs with the perl 5.14 import have been fixed.
821 +
822 + 20110518:
823 +        Perl 5.14.0
824 +
825 + 20110517:
826 +        Sendmail 8.14.5
827 +
828 + 20110314:
829 +        DRM/DRI code updated to support newer video cards. (FreeBSD 7.1)
830 +
831 +        cdevpriv wrappers added
832 +
833 +        nss_mdns hack introduced to work around linking problem.
834 +
835 +        dnsextd fixed after update to mDNSResponder code.
836 +
837 + 20110308:
838 +        Introduce liblzma & xz 5.0.1 to the base system
839 +
840 +        Patch for OpenSSL security issue CVE-2011-0014.
841 +
842 +        "OSREVISION 4004"
843 +
844 +        nsswitch module for multicast dns (nss_mdns) added.
845 +
846 +        tzdata2011c
847 +
848 + 20110220:
849 +        cam(4) syncronized with FreeBSD 7.3.
850 +
851 + 20110219:
852 +        amdtemp(4) updated to support sensors framework.
853 +
854 + 20110217:
855 +        Perl 5.10.1 imported
856 +
857 + 20110216:
858 +        Introduce igb(4) and split Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters between
859 +        igb(4) and em(4).  Newer devices use igb(4).  The code has moved
860 +        to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has
861 +        been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64.
862 +
863 +        Update bfe(4) to support newer devices and WOL.
864 +
865 + 20110215:
866 +        age(4) added.
867 +
868 + 20110208:
869 +        BIND 9.6.3 which fixes a bug with DNSSEC records getting added.
870 +
871 + 20110206:
872 +        eeemon(4) added to monitor Asus Eee PC.
873 +
874 + 20110205:
875 +        OpenSSH 5.7p1
876 +
877 +        GNU sort 6.9 (coreutils)
878 +
879 + 20110203:
880 +        one true awk 20100523 imported
881 +
882 +        sqlite 3.7.5
883 +
884 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8q
885 +
886 + 20110202:
887 +        tcsh 6.17.00
888 +
889 +        file 5.05
890 +
891 + 20110122:
892 +        Import it(4) and lm(4), with support for Super I/O hardware monitors. This
893 +        uses the sensors framework ported by Constantine A. Murenin (GSOC2007)
894 +
895 + 20110120:
896 +        BIND 9.6.2-P3
897 +
898 +        sudo 1.7.4-p6
899 +
900 + 20110115:
901 +        Add experimental jme(4) for Jmicron ethernet devices.
902 +
903 + 20101130:
904 +        A double free exists in the SSL client ECDH handling code, when
905 +        processing specially crafted public keys with invalid prime
906 +        numbers. [CVE-2010-2939]
907 +
908 + 20101120:
909 +        Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file
910 +        systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due
911 +        to use of int types.  Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified
912 +        our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts
913 +        which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB.
914 +
915 +        newfs and growfs was also modified.
916 +
917 + 20101110:
918 +        Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel
919 +        context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration.  This affects file
920 +        systems such as procfs for instance.
921 +
922 + 20101021:
923 +        sysrc is a utility to print and modify name/value pairs in /etc/rc.conf easily.
924 +        This is similar to functions present in many linux distros. The utility was
925 +        written by Devin Teske for FreeBSD.
926 +
927 + 20100920:
928 +        bzip2 security patch for integer overflow.
929 +
930 + 20100905:
931 +        MidnightBSD RELENG_0_3 branch created.  Aggressive development continues here
932 +        for 0.4.
933 +
934 + 20100902:
935 +        Fix a security issue with libutil that allows users to bypass cpu limits in
936 +        login.conf in some cases.  This combined with OpenSSH for example can allow
937 +        the user to get more resources than they're allowed.
938 +
939 + 20100822:
940 +        Import Apple's mDNSResponder (mdnsd).
941 +
942 + 20100814:
943 +        libdispatch added to MidnightBSD.  This provides functionality found in
944 +        Mac OS X's GCD.  We do not have blocks support yet.  As this code is
945 +        licensed under Apache 2, we create a new MK_APACHE option so that
946 +        it's not required for all users to run code under a license they
947 +        may not like.
948 +
949 + 20100713:
950 +        mbuf readonly fix related to sendfile(2) data corruption.
951 +
952 + 20100704:

963 +
964 + 20100319:
965 +        Removed i586 from default i386 generic kernel.
966 +
967 + 20100317:

969 +        Mexico.
970 +
971 +        Add support for several newer sound cards via hda including
972 +        ATI and Realtek chipsets.
973 +
974 + 20100313:
975 +        CPU detection has been changed.  VIA Padlock detection added.
976 +
977 + 20100312:

992 +
993 + 20100206:
994 +        WITHOUT_LIB32 is no longer needed on AMD64.  GCC was fixed to
995 +        properly pass arguments to ld.
996 +
997 +        re(4) and rl(4) have been updated to support several new
998 +        realtek chipsets.  Performance has been improved on re(4).
999 +
1000 + 20100204:
1001 +        Fix a bug cropping up on AMD64 MidnightBSD with sftp
1002 +        segfaulting.  
1003 +
1004 + 20100116:
1005 +        Import ash changes from FreeBSD (bin/sh) 8-Stable.
1006 +
1007 +        BIND 9.6.1-P2
1008 +

1010 +        Import Sendmail 8.14.4. Fix for SSL vulnerability.
1011 +
1012 +        posix_spawn(3) added to MidnightBSD libc.  Users may need to build and
1013 +        install libc before doing a full buildworld when upating from 0.2 or
1014 +        older current systems.
1015 +
1016 +        kqueue(2) was modified to support portions of libdispatch functionality.
1017 +
1018 + 20100106:
1019 +        Bind security update.  Fix a bug with DNSSEC that causes negative
1020 +        cache entries and thus a possible DNS cache poisoning attack.
1021 +
1022 +        Fix a bug in ZFS that can reset permissions on system crashes.
1023 +
1024 + 20091228:
1025 +        amdtemp(4) was added.  It allows one to monitor to the temperature
1026 +        of an AMD CPU such as a Phenom.
1027 +
1028 + 20091205:
1029 +        OpenSSL security fix
1030 +
1031 +        The SSL version 3 and TLS protocols support session renegotiation without
1032 +        cryptographically tying the new session parameters to the old parameters.
1033 +

1045 +        cpdup updated from DragonFly to 1.15
1046 +
1047 +        tzdata2009s updated with latest timezone data for November 2009.
1048 +
1049 + 20091010:
1050 +        amd64 users should use WITHOUT_LIB32=yes in /etc/make.conf for now
1051 +        to test current.
1052 +
1053 +        Revert unicode filename fixes from ntfs code.  This was causing chaos
1054 +        on amd64 systems.
1055 +
1056 + 20091006:
1057 +        Update timezone data with tzdata2009n with the Pakistan and
1058 +        Argentina changes.
1059 +
1060 +        Sync several userland utilities with versions from FreeBSD 7.0 in
1061 +        sbin and usr.sbin.
1062 +
1063 + 20090919:
1064 +        Update timezone data with tzdate2009m from September 2009.
1065 +
1066 + 20090729:
1067 +        Patch for Bind 9 security vulnerability. a dynmaic update packet
1068 +        can trigger an assertion and cause named to exit
1069 +
1070 + 20090606:
1071 +        Remove PCC from the base system.  This compiler will not work
1072 +        as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment
1073 +        in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future.  We're stuck
1074 +        with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum.
1075 +
1076 +        I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is
1077 +        fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base
1078 +        system which makes no sense.
1079 +
1080 +        A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to
1081 +        the kernel.  This should cut down on commands it claims to support
1082 +        but does not (at the cam layer).  Found while testing ZFS on
1083 +        an external device.
1084 +
1085 + 20090520:
1086 +        The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve
1087 +        compatibility with many systems.  However, there is a new
1088 +        installer option in the startup section to enable it. This
1089 +        makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I                thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks
1090 +        out my new Phenom too.
1091 +
1092 + 20090502:
1093 +        OpenSSH 5.2p1 import
1094 +
1095 +        ale(4) connected to the build. (kernel module only)
1096 +
1097 + 20090501:
1098 +        Imported makefs utility from NetBSD/FreeBSD
1099 +
1100 + 20090422:
1101 +        OpenSSL security update
1102 +
1103 +        The function ASN1_STRING_print_ex does not properly validate the lengths
1104 + of BMPString or UniversalString objects before attempting to print them.
1105 +
1106 + 20090415:
1107 +        Created a Symbol.map for libc/ohash symbols
1108 +
1109 +        Updated several usr/bin usr/sbin utilities.
1110 +
1111 +        Corrected a bug with Makefile.inc1 causing the bootstrap
1112 +        tools to fail.
1113 +
1114 + 20090405:
1115 +        xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not
1116 +        yet work with USB. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then
1117 +        add
1118 +                Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
1119 +        to your ServerLayout section.  This will cause X to use the configured
1120 +        kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf
1121 +
1122 + 20090403:
1123 +        mksh was disconnected a few day ago do to bugs with
1124 +        buildworld and mports.  Now, connect it back
1125 +        for use as /bin/sh with a conditional called
1126 +        MK_ASH.  By default, ash is the standard /bin/sh
1127 +        but we may change this later.  This will allow further
1128 +        testing by users and developers of mksh without
1129 +        causing an unpleasant default experience.  In the
1130 +        long run, we need to fix mksh compatibility.
1131 +
1132 + 20090328:
1133 +        Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root
1134 +        and skel were changed.  mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1)
1135 +        as the default /bin/sh.  Please report bugs with
1136 +        ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile
1137 +        as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as
1138 +        an optional build parameter.  
1139 +
1140 +        ahd was disconnected from the lint environment until
1141 +        the compiler bug is sorted (by updating gcc?)
1142 +
1143 +        Remove freebsd-tips from fortune files and change the
1144 +        default for login and profile.
1145 +
1146 + 20090327:
1147 +        Update libarchive to 2.5.5, tar, and add bsdcpio.
1148 +
1149 +        Also previously, ctriv has been connecting Perl 5.10
1150 +        to the build (part of os).  This will have an impact
1151 +        on mports.
1152 +
1153 + 20090325:
1154 +        Update Bind to 9.4.3-P1
1155 +
1156 +        Update mksh to R36b
1157 +
1158 +        Update tcpdump to 3.9.8, fix libpcap to work with current.
1159 +
1160 +        Update pnpinfo, sync with FreeBSD.
1161 +
1162 + 20090115:
1163 +        Fix a problem with DNSSEC and BIND.
1164 +
1165 + 20090110:
1166 +        For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL
1167 +        certificate may be interpreted as valid.  This could for example be
1168 +        used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack.
1169 +
1170 +        Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be
1171 +        affected.
1172 +
1173 +        Stop cross site request forgery attacks in lukemftpd
1174 +
1175 + 20090104:
1176 +        Import GNU libreadline 5.2
1177 +
1178 + 20090101:
1179 +        Update time zone data to 2008i.
1180 +
1181 + 20081231:
1182 +        Correct a problem where bluetooth and netgraph sockets are not
1183 +        properly initialized.
1184 +
1185 +        Happy 2009.
1186 +
1187 + 20081206:
1188 +        Due to the massive change in the underlying system under way,
1189 +        we're naming the next release 1.0.  The sys/sys/param.h was
1190 +        changed accordingly.  ipfilter and ncurses were corrected
1191 +        using __MidnightBSD__ tests in the code.  
1192 +
1193 +        The GENERIC kernel config was caught up on i386 today.  Consider
1194 +        i386 still broken, but amd64 is running again.
1195 +
1196 +        mdoc.local was updated with the new MidnightBSD version info.
1197 +
1198 +        batt(1) was rewritten in C.  It now supports several flags and
1199 +        runs about 8 times faster on my laptop.  The default output
1200 +        shows the number of minutes of battery life remaining and the
1201 +        percentage.  You can use -u to display the number of batteries or
1202 +        -c to get script friendly output.  Consult the man page for more.
1203 +
1204 + 20081204:
1205 +        Work has completed on importing ZFS, jemalloc, several
1206 +        new devices, SCTP, updated pf, a new tempfs, linuxolator 2.6 kernel
1207 +        support, improved locking for file desc., audit (openbsm),
1208 +        openssl .98e, nfe, imporved intel high def audio, midi, updated
1209 +        intel gigabit (em), support for several wifi cards (intel), ...
1210 +
1211 +        Renamed 0.3-CURRENT officially. Switched to using MidnightBSD version
1212 +        data from param.h instead of the FreeBSD version.  This means
1213 +        testing is now possible in the ports tree for the version
1214 +        and that any ports or code relying on the FreeBSD version from
1215 +        sys/sys/param.h will need to be fixed.
1216 +
1217 + 20080905:
1218 +        update nve(4) to support new hardware.
1219 +
1220 + 20080801:
1221 +        Import OpenBSM 1.0
1222 +
1223 +        Modify src/release to create 3 isos instead of 2 for packages.
1224 +
1225 +        etc/rc.d/firstboot now enables kdm, gnustep + slim and bsdstats.
1226 +
1227 +        Many ia64, alpha, powerpc items were removed.
1228 +
1229 +        The recent diffutils 2.8.7 import was fixed.
1230 +
1231 + 20080703:
1232 +        pcc was not installed properly when setting DESTDIR for live cds,
1233 +        or posibly jails.
1234 +
1235 + 20080627:
1236 +        Add firmware(9), WEP, CCMP, TKIP to GENERIC.
1237 +
1238 +        Add glabel to GENERIC.
1239 +
1240 +        Intel ICH8 mobile chipset used on some iMacs included with ata.
1241 +
1242 +        pcc connected to the build on i386. (alternative compiler)
1243 +
1244 +        ath added to GENERIC.  (Atheros wireless NICs) on amd64/i386
1245 +
1246 + 20080528:
1247 +        Sendmail 8.14.3
1248 +
1249   20080516:
1250          ssh-vulnkey allows you to look for vulnerable ssh keys that
1251          were generated on Debian and Ubuntu hosts over the last
