3 + 20141109:
4 +        Fix building perl during buildworld when the GDBM port is installed.
5 +
6 + 20141106:
7 +        tzdata 2014i
8 +
9 + 20141102:
10 +        serf 1.3.8
11 +
12 + 20141031:
13 +        tnftp 20141031 fixes a security vulnerability with tnftp,
14 +        CVE-2014-8517.
15 +
16 + 20141028:
17 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8zc
18 +
19 + 20141021:
20 +        Fix several security vulnerabilities in routed, rtsold,
21 +        and namei with respect to Capsicum sandboxes looking up
22 +        nonexistent path names and leaking memory.
23 +
24 +        The input path in routed(8) will accept queries from any source and
25 +        attempt to answer them.  However, the output path assumes that the
26 +        destination address for the response is on a directly connected
27 +        network.
28 +
29 +        Due to a missing length check in the code that handles DNS parameters,
30 +        a malformed router advertisement message can result in a stack buffer
31 +        overflow in rtsold(8).
32 +
33 + 20141011:
34 +        mksh R50d - fix field splitting regression and null
35 +        pointer dereference
36 +
37 +        xz 5.0.7
38 +
39 +        OpenSSH 6.6p1
40 +
41 + 20141004:
42 +        mksh R50c - security update for environment var bug with
43 +        foo vs foo+    
44 +
45 + 20141002:
46 +        sqlite 3.8.6
47 +
48 +        sudo 1.7.8 - some issues with the current version, but we're slowly
49 +        getting up to date.
50 +
51 + 20141001:
52 +        mksh R50b
53 +
54 +        libmport now supports plist commands @dir, @owner, @group, @mode.
55 +
56 +        sudo 1.7.6p2
57 +
58 + 20140916:
59 +        Fix a security issue with TCP SYN.
60 +
61 +        When a segment with the SYN flag for an already existing connection arrives,
62 +        the TCP stack tears down the connection, bypassing a check that the
63 +        sequence number in the segment is in the expected window.
64 +
65 + 20140909:
66 +        Fixed a bug with our clearenv(3) implementation that caused segfaults
67 +        with some programs including Dovecot.
68 +
69 +        OpenSSL security patch:
70 +
71 +        The receipt of a specifically crafted DTLS handshake message may cause OpenSSL
72 +        to consume large amounts of memory. [CVE-2014-3506]
73 +
74 +        The receipt of a specifically crafted DTLS packet could cause OpenSSL to leak
75 +        memory. [CVE-2014-3507]
76 +
77 +        A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
78 +        X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information from
79 +        the stack. [CVE-2014-3508]
80 +
81 +        OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject to
82 +        a denial of service attack. [CVE-2014-3510]
83 +
84 + 20140902:
85 +        We're now 0.6-CURRENT
86 +
87 +        Update USB quirks to support K70 Corsair keyboard, and several
88 +        other devices.
89 +
90 + 20140827:
91 +        Perl 5.18.2
92 +
93 + 20140728:
94 +        Jails now run shutdown scripts.
95 +
96 + 20140710:
97 +        Fix a vulnerability in the control message API. A buffer is not properly cleared
98 +        before sharing with userland.
99 +
100 + 20140701:
101 +        MKSH R50
102 +
103 + 20140630:
104 +        File 5.19
105 +
106 + 20140605:
107 +        Fix four security issues with OpenSSL
108 +
109 + 20140604:
110 +        Sendmail failed to properly set close-on-exec for open file descriptors.
111 +
112 +        ktrace page fault kernel trace entries were set to an incorrect size which resulted
113 +        in a leak of information.
114 +
115 + 20140430:
116 +        Fix a TCP reassembly bug that could result in a DOS attack
117 +        of the system. It may be possible to obtain portions
118 +        of kernel memory as well.
119 +
120 + 20140411:
121 +        Update zlib to 1.2.7
122 +
123 + 20140122:
124 +        Support for username with length 32. Previous limit was 16
125 +
126 + 20140114:
127 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
128 +
129 +        bsnmpd contains a stack overflow when sent certain queries.
130 +
131 +        bind 9.8 when using NSEC3-signed zones zones, will crash with special
132 +        crafted packets.
133 +
134 + 20131228:
135 +        Imported FreeBSD 9.2 usb stack (plus z87 patches from stable)
136 +
137 +        Updated em(4), igb(4) and ixgbe(4)
138 +
139 +        MidnightBSD now works with Z87 Intel chipsets.
140 +
141 + 20131207:
142 +        Remove sparc64 architecture. It hasn't been working for awhile
143 +        and it's not useful for desktops anymore.
144 +
145 + 20131205:
146 +        OpenSSH 6.4p1
147 +
148 + 20131203:
149 +        Perl 5.18.1 imported.
150 +
151 +        Update less to v458
152 +
153 + 20131130:
154 +        Remove named from base. We still include the client utilities for
155 +        now until replacements can be found.
156 +
157 + 20131004:
158 +        rarpd supports vlan(4) and has a pid flag. (from FreeBSD)
159 +
160 + 20130917:
161 +        Support for 65,536 routing tables was added.  A new fib specific
162 +        field has been added to mbuf.  This is an increase from 16.
163 +
164 + 20130910:
165 +        Security updates: (kern.osreldate 5001)
166 +
167 +        nullfs(5)
168 +
169 +        The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not
170 +        check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same
171 +        nullfs instance.  It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a
172 +        location in one nullfs instance to a file in another, as long as the
173 +        underlying (source) filesystem is the same.
174 +
175 +        ifioctl
176 +
177 +        As is commonly the case, the IPv6 and ATM network layer ioctl request
178 +        handlers are written in such a way that an unrecognized request is
179 +        passed on unmodified to the link layer, which will either handle it or
180 +        return an error code.
181 +
182 +        Network interface drivers, however, assume that the SIOCSIFADDR,
183 +        SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been
184 +        handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input
185 +        validation or verify the caller's credentials.  Typical link-layer
186 +        actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up"
187 +        and resetting the underlying hardware.
188 +
189 + 20130824:
190 +        Fix a bug in sendmail 8.14.7 that interferes with how it
191 +        handles AAAA records interoperating with Microsoft DNS servers.
192 +        FreeBSD has already reported this to Sendmail and a fix
193 +        will be included in the next release.
194 +
195 +        Subversion 1.8.1 is now in the base system as a static
196 +        binary.  It has limited functionality, but can be used to
197 +        checkout/commit code.  It is named svnlite.
198 +
199 + 20130822:
200 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
201 +
202 +        Fix an integer overflow in IP_MSFILTER (IP MULTICAST).
203 +        This could be exploited to read memory by a user process.
204 +
205 +        When initializing the SCTP state cookie being sent in INIT-ACK chunks,
206 +        a buffer allocated from the kernel stack is not completely initialized.
207 +
208 +        Import xz 5.0.4
209 +
210 +        Import sqlite 3.7.17
211 +
212 +        Import BIND 9.8.5-P2
213 +
214 + 20130814:
215 +        mksh R48 imported.
216 +
217 +        Sendmail 8.14.7 imported.
218 +
219 + 20130717:
220 +        libmport bug was fixed causing hash verification to fail.
221 +
222 +        virtio(4) imported from FreeBSD 9-stable. SCSI support not
223 +        included.
224 +
225 + 20130612:
226 +        RELENG_0_4 created for 0.4. Development continues on 0.5.
227 +
228 + 20130402:
229 +        Update BIND and OpenSSL to resolve security advisories.
230 +
231 + 20130305:
232 +        MKSH R44 imported.
233 +
234 + 20130213:
235 +        MKSH R42b imported
236 +
237 + 20130211:
238 +        MKSH R42 imported
239 +
240 + 20130125:
241 +        MKSH R41 imported
242 +
243 + 20130122:
244 +        OpenSSH 5.8p2 imported
245 +
246 +        SQLite 3.7.15.2 imported
247 +
248 +        Fixed a longstanding bug in libmport extrating new index files.
249 +
250 + 20120710:
251 +        BSD licensed sort imported from FreeBSD-CURRENT
252 +
253 +        For now, GNU sort is installed as gnusort, but it will
254 +        go away in time.
255 +
256 + 20120708:
257 +        tcsh 6.18.01 imported.
258 +
259 +        NetBSD's iconv imported.
260 +
261 +        libc gains strnlen(3), memrchr(3), stpncpy(3).
262 +
263 + 20120612:
264 +        BIND security update related to CVE-2012-1667.
265 +
266 +        Zero length resource records can cause BIND to crash resulting
267 +        in a DOS attack or information disclosure.
268 +
269 + 20120407:
270 +        mksh R40f (fixes regression)
271 +
272 + 20120328:
273 +        mksh R40e
274 +
275 +        Perl 5.14.2
276 +
277 + 20120229:
278 +        cpucontrol(8) and cpuctl(4) added from FreeBSD 7-stable.
279 +
280 + 20120209:
281 +        mDNSResponder 333.10 imported
282 +
283 + 20111227:
284 +        import raid5 module for GEOM, graid5(8)
285 +
286 +        This is experimental and known to use a lot of kernel
287 +        memory.
288 +
289 + 20111223:
290 +        telnetd: fix a root exploit from a fixed buffer that was not checked
291 +
292 +        pam: don't allow escape from policy path.  Exploitable in KDE, etc.
293 +
294 +        Fix pam_ssh module:
295 +
296 +        If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access
297 +        to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys.
298 +
299 +        This has to due with the way that openssl works.  It ignores unencrpted data.
300 +
301 +        Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd.
302 +
303 +        nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some
304 +        operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security
305 +        hole in things like ftpd.
306 +
307 + 20111217:
308 +        libdialog/dialog upgraded to an lgpl version. As it's not
309 +        backwardly compatable, include the old libdialog as libodialog
310 +
311 + 20111212:
312 +        mksh r40d imported
313 +
314 + 20111210:
315 +        re(4) and rl(4) updated to support new chips.
316 +
317 +        GEOM synced with FreeBSD 7-stable.
318 +
319 +        MidnightBSD GPT partition types created in sys/gpt.h and
320 +        setup in boot loader and GEOM.
321 +
322 +        amdsbwd(4) (amd watchdog for south bridge) updated to support
323 +        8xx series chipset.
324 +
325 + 20111207:
326 +        import bsd grep from FreeBSD/OpenBSD.
327 +
328 +        MK_BSD_GREP controls which grep is installed
329 +        as grep with the other as bsdgrep or gnugrep.
330 +
331 + 20111122:
332 +        mksh vR40c imported.
333 +
334 + 20111117:
335 +        BIND 9.6 ESV R5 P1
336 +
337 + 20111107:
338 +        tzdata 2011n
339 +
340 + 20111026:
341 +        mDNSResponder v320
342 +
343 +        BIND 9.6 ESV R5
344 +
345 + 20111022:
346 +        cflow 0.0.6 imported
347 +
348 + 20111020:
349 +        less v436 imported
350 +
351 +        amdsbwd(4) AMD southbridge watchdog
352 +
353 + 20111019:
354 +        awk 20110810 imported
355 +
356 +        et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
357 +        not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
358 +        testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
359 +
360 +        intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
361 +        specific CPU core.
362 +
363 + 20111017:
364 +        Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
365 +
366 +        Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
367 +
368 + 20111015:
369 +        Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
370 +        to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
371 +        process. Several new system calls were added to support this
372 +        functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
373 +        compatibility on amd64.
374 +
375 +        The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
376 +        amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
377 +        for this feature.
378 +
379 +        This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
380 +
381 + 20111004:
382 +        Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent
383 +        patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network
384 +        apps to work under the linuxolator again.
385 +
386 + 20111001:
387 +        Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is
388 +        now default and an environment variable must be set to use
389 +        active.
390 +
391 + 20110930:
392 +        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
393 +        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
394 +
395 +        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
396 +        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
397 +        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
398 +        offloading.
399 +
400 +        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
401 +        working with large raid3 sets.
402 +
403 +        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
404 +
405 + 20110929:
406 +        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
407 +
408 +        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
409 +        removed from loader.conf:
410 +        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
411 +
412 +        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
413 +        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
414 +        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
415 +
416 + 20110928:
417 +        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
418 +        files that are corrupted.
419 +
420 +        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
421 +
422 + 20110917:
423 +        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
424 +        it's in the base system.
425 +
426 + 20110914:
427 +        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
428 +
429 + 20110813:
430 +        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
431 +
432 + 20110806:
433 +        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
434 +
435 +        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
436 +        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
437 +        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
438 +        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
439 +        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
440 +        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
441 +
442 +        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
443 +        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
444 +
445 + 20110710:
446 +        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
447 +        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
448 +
449 +        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
450 +
451 + 20110709:
452 +        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
453 +        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
454 +
455 + 20110612:
456 +        Update mksh to R40
457 +
458 +        Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x.  Good to run when
459 +        updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old)
460 +
461 + 20110528:
462 +        Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x.  This affects caching resolvers.
463 +
464 + 20110526:
465 +        newfs:
466 +        Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from
467 +        16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
468 +
469 +        This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format"
470 +        hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type
471 +        have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes.  Of course
472 +        the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk.
473 +
474 + 20110521:
475 +        mport tool now has a deleteall command.  This can be used to remove
476 +        all packages from a system.
477 +
478 +        A few bugs with the perl 5.14 import have been fixed.
479 +
480 + 20110518:
481 +        Perl 5.14.0

515 + 20110216:
516 +        Introduce igb(4) and split Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters between
517 +        igb(4) and em(4).  Newer devices use igb(4).  The code has moved
518 +        to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has
519 +        been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64.

549 + 20110122:
550 +        Import it(4) and lm(4), with support for Super I/O hardware monitors. This
551 +        uses the sensors framework ported by Constantine A. Murenin (GSOC2007)
552 +
553 + 20110120:
554 +        BIND 9.6.2-P3
555 +
556 +        sudo 1.7.4-p6

560 +
561 + 20101130:
562 +        A double free exists in the SSL client ECDH handling code, when
563 +        processing specially crafted public keys with invalid prime
564 +        numbers. [CVE-2010-2939]
565 +
566 + 20101120:
567 +        Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file
568 +        systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due
569 +        to use of int types.  Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified
570 +        our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts
571 +        which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB.
572 +
573 +        newfs and growfs was also modified.
574 +
575 + 20101110:
576 +        Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel
577 +        context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration.  This affects file
578 +        systems such as procfs for instance.
579 +
580 + 20101021:
581 +        sysrc is a utility to print and modify name/value pairs in /etc/rc.conf easily.
582 +        This is similar to functions present in many linux distros. The utility was
583 +        written by Devin Teske for FreeBSD.
584 +

586 +        bzip2 security patch for integer overflow.
587 +
588 + 20100905:
589 +        MidnightBSD RELENG_0_3 branch created.  Aggressive development continues here
590 +        for 0.4.
591 +
592 + 20100902:
593 +        Fix a security issue with libutil that allows users to bypass cpu limits in
594 +        login.conf in some cases.  This combined with OpenSSH for example can allow
595 +        the user to get more resources than they're allowed.
596 +
597 + 20100822:
598 +        Import Apple's mDNSResponder (mdnsd).
599 +
600 + 20100814:
601 +        libdispatch added to MidnightBSD.  This provides functionality found in
602 +        Mac OS X's GCD.  We do not have blocks support yet.  As this code is
603 +        licensed under Apache 2, we create a new MK_APACHE option so that
604 +        it's not required for all users to run code under a license they
605 +        may not like.
606 +
607 + 20100713:
608 +        mbuf readonly fix related to sendfile(2) data corruption.
