3 + 20170219:
4 +        Add /dev/full device.
5 +
6 +        The lindev device has been removed since /dev/full has been made a
7 +        standard device.
8 +
9 +        Serf 1.3.9
10 +        Subversion 1.8.10
11 +        apr 1.5.2
12 +        apr-util 1.5.4
13 +
14 + 20170129:
15 +        add doas utility from OpenBSD.
16 +
17 + 20161105:
18 +        BIND 9.9.9-p4
19 +
20 +        OpenSSH 7.3p1
21 +
22 + 20161103:
23 +        OpenSSL security patch
24 +
25 +        Due to improper handling of alert packets, OpenSSL would consume an excessive
26 +        amount of CPU time processing undefined alert messages.
27 +
28 + 20161015:
29 +        libarchive 3.2.1
30 +
31 +        xz 5.2.2
32 +
33 + 20161013:
34 +        Sync ZFS code with Illuminos/FreeBSD 9.2. Added support for
35 +        feature flags, pool version 5000. This also includes some
36 +        bug fixes and performance optimizations.
37 +
38 + 20160925:
39 +        Import NetBSD vis(3) and unvis(3) as well as mtree.
40 +
41 +        one-true-awk 20121220

48 +
49 +        bsdgrep now correctly handles -m to exclude only one file.
50 +
51 +        UFS file systems can now be resized in read-write mode due to the new
52 +        write suspension feature.
53 +
54 +        Basic support added for Intel Raid Recover Technology.
55 +
56 +        GMIRROR & GRAID3 now mark volumes clean on shutdown earlier to help with ZFS issues.
57 +
58 +        Highpoint hpt27xx now in GENERIC kernel.
59 +
60 + 20160923:
61 +        Security update for OpenSSL
62 +
63 +        A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request extension.
64 +        If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a large OCSP Status
65 +        Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded memory growth on the
66 +        server. [CVE-2016-6304]
67 +
68 +        An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or through
69 +        the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker is able to supply
70 +        very large amounts of input data after a previous call to EVP_EncryptUpdate()
71 +        with a partial block then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
72 +        corruption. [CVE-2016-6303]
73 +
74 +        If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
75 +        DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
76 +        ultimately crash. [CVE-2016-6302]
77 +
78 +        The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
79 +        This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
80 +        overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
81 +        or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
82 +        record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.
83 +        [CVE-2016-2182]
84 +
85 +        The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
86 +        the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
87 +        of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are presented.
88 +        [CVE-2016-2180]
89 +
90 +        Some calculations of limits in OpenSSL have used undefined pointer arithmetic.
91 +        This could cause problems with some malloc implementations. [CVE-2016-2177]
92 +
93 +        Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in order to
94 +        avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA implementation means that
95 +        a non-constant time codepath is followed for certain operations. [CVE-2016-2178]
96 +
97 +        In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order those
98 +        messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered for later
99 +        use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that those messages
100 +        do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake has been completed.
101 +        An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to remain in the buffer when
102 +        they are no longer required. These messages will be cleared when the DTLS
103 +        connection is closed. The default maximum size for a message is 100k. Therefore
104 +        the attacker could force an additional 1500k to be consumed per connection.
105 +        [CVE-2016-2179]
106 +
107 +        A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records that
108 +        arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before the MAC
109 +        for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an attacker by
110 +        sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to decrypt or have a
111 +        valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means that all subsequent
112 +        legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of service for a specific
113 +        DTLS connection. [CVE-2016-2181]
114 +
115 +        In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result in
116 +        OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a theoretical
117 +        DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common platforms.
118 +        [CVE-2016-6306]
119 +
120 + 20160918:
121 +        With the addition of auditdistd(8), a new auditdistd user is now
122 +        depended on during installworld.  "mergemaster -p" can be used to add
123 +        the user prior to installworld.
124 +
125 +        The VFS KBI was changed with the merge of several nullfs
126 +        optimizations and fixes.  All filesystem modules must be
127 +        recompiled.
128 +
129 + 20160916:
130 +        The random(4) support for the VIA hardware random number
131 +        generator (`PADLOCK') is no longer enabled unconditionally.
132 +        Add the PADLOCK_RNG option in the custom kernel config if
133 +        needed.  The GENERIC kernels on i386 and amd64 do include the
134 +        option, so the change only affects the custom kernel
135 +        configurations.
136 +
137 +        A new version of ZFS (pool version 5000) has been merged.
138 +        Starting with this version the old system of ZFS pool versioning
139 +        is superseded by "feature flags". This concept enables forward
140 +        compatibility against certain future changes in functionality of ZFS
141 +        pools. The first two read-only compatible "feature flags" for ZFS
142 +        pools are "com.delphix:async_destroy" and "com.delphix:empty_bpobj".
143 +        For more information read the new zpool-features(7) manual page.
144 +        Please refer to the "ZFS notes" section of this file for information
145 +        on upgrading boot ZFS pools.
146 +
147 + 20160906:
148 +        Add support for the MosChip MCS9904 four serial ports
149 +        controller.
150 +
151 +        Add support for walltimestamp in DTrace.
152 +
153 +        Various gdb improvments.
154 +
155 +        ZFS
156 +        Import the zio nop-write improvement from Illumos. To reduce I/O,
157 +        nop-write omits overwriting data if the checksum (cryptographically
158 +        secure) of new data matches the checksum of existing data.
159 +        It also saves space if snapshots are in use.
160 +
161 +        It currently works only on datasets with enabled compression, disabled
162 +        deduplication and sha256 checksums.
163 +
164 +        Add loader(8) tunable to enable/disable nopwrite functionality:
165 +        vfs.zfs.nopwrite_enabled
166 +
167 +        Introduce a new dataset aclmode setting "restricted" to protect ACL's
168 +        being destroyed or corrupted by a drive-by chmod.
169 +
170 +        New loader-only tunables:
171 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_deferred_free
172 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_dont_compress
173 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_rewrite
174 +
175 +        chkgrp(8) add support for q flag
176 +
177 +        Fix problem with the Samsung 840 PRO series SSD detection.
178 +        The device reports support for SATA Asynchronous Notification in its
179 +        IDENTIFY data, but returns error on attempt to enable that feature.
180 +        Make SATA XPT of CAM only report these errors, but not fail the device.
181 +
182 + 20160905:
183 +        Add a resource limit for the total number of kqueues
184 +        available to the user. Kqueue now saves the ucred of the
185 +        allocating thread, to correctly decrement the counter on close.
186 +        Based on FreeBSD SVN 256849
187 +
188 +        Import netcat from OpenBSD 5.2
189 +
190 + 20160904:
191 +        Introduced experimental TCP sysctls starting with
192 +        net.inet.tcp.experimental.initcwnd10
193 +
194 + 20160814:
195 +        switched default desktop port to midnightbsd-desktop. This gives us flexibility to change it
196 +        in the release after the fact.
197 +
198 +        tzdata 2016a
199 +
200 + 20160811:
201 +        libdispatch 210
202 +
203 +        Added quirks for several models of SSDs to enable advanced format/4k mode. List includes
204 +        Samsung 830, 840, 850 and 750 series, Intel x25 and a few Toshiba models. Also
205 +        added WD Red drives.
206 +
207 +        Updated list of pci device vendors.
208 +
209 +        Updated list of usb devices.
210 +
211 + 20160807:
212 +        Implement several changes to libmport to fix some memory corruption issues.
213 +
214 + 20160806:
215 +        sqlite3 3.13.0
216 +
217 + 20160805:
218 +        Merged fixes for libmport that improve error handling when installing packages. Also
219 +        support mkdir -p like behavior for plist entries.
220 +
221 + 20160531:
222 +        Fix four security issues with MidnightBSD.
223 +
224 +        The implementation of TIOCGSERIAL ioctl(2) does not clear the output
225 +        struct before sending to userland in the linux emulation layer.
226 +
227 +        The compat 43 stat(2) system call exposes kernel stack to userland.
228 +
229 +        libarchive - CVE-2015-2304 and CVE-2013-0211 fix issues with
230 +        cpio directory traversal and an integer signedness error in the archive
231 +        write zip data routine.
232 +
233 +
234 + 20160528:
235 +        Fixed minor issues with mined(1) and msearch(1).
236 +
237 + 20160526:
238 +        Add support for Ivybridge and Haswell Intel CPUs to hwpmc(4).
239 +
240 +        Fix libpmc(3) build with clang compiler.
241 +
242 + 20160519:
243 +        Kernel Security updates
244 +
245 +        atkbd(4) - Incorrect signedness comparison in the ioctl(2) handler allows a malicious
246 +        local user to overwrite a portion of the kernel memory.
247 +
248 +        Incorrect argument handling in sendmsg(2)
249 +
250 +        Incorrect argument handling in the socket code allows malicious local
251 +        user to overwrite large portion of the kernel memory.
252 +
253 + 20160505:
254 +        OpenSSL security patch
255 +
256 +        The padding check in AES-NI CBC MAC was rewritten to be in constant time
257 +        by making sure that always the same bytes are read and compared against
258 +        either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer checked that there was
259 +        enough data to have both the MAC and padding bytes. [CVE-2016-2107]
260 +
261 +        An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
262 +        Base64 encoding of binary data. [CVE-2016-2105]
263 +
264 +        An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function, however it is
265 +        believed that there can be no overflows in internal code due to this problem.
266 +        [CVE-2016-2106]
267 +
268 +        When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
269 +        a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
270 +        potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
271 +        [CVE-2016-2109]
272 +
273 + 20160412:
274 +        0.8 stable branch created. Continue development as 0.9.
275 +
276 +        Fix several issues with wait6 system call addition.
277 +
278 + 20160409:
279 +        libmport now supports two new plist formats:
280 +        @(root,wheel,4775) myfile
281 +        @dir(root,wheel,775) mydir
282 +
283 +        On delete, absoluate paths are now handled properly.
284 +
285 + 20160317:
286 +        OpenSSH doesn't have the luck of the Irish.
287 +
288 +        Fix a security issue with OpenSSH X11 forwarding that can allow an attacker
289 +        run shell commands on the call to xauth.
290 +
291 +        Incorrect argument validation in sysarch(2)
292 +
293 +        A special combination of sysarch(2) arguments, specify a request to
294 +        uninstall a set of descriptors from the LDT.  The start descriptor
295 +        is cleared and the number of descriptors are provided.  Due to invalid
296 +        use of a signed intermediate value in the bounds checking during argument
297 +        validity verification, unbound zero'ing of the process LDT and adjacent
298 +        memory can be initiated from usermode.
299 +
300 +        Patch obtained from FreeBSD.
301 +
302 + 20160229:
303 +        top now displays information on ZFS arc cache.
304 +
305 + 20160228:
306 +        llvm + clang 3.3 is now the default compiler in MidnightBSD.
307 +
308 + 20160222:
309 +        Introduce pipe2 to linux emulation layer.
310 +
311 + 20160114:
312 +        OpenSSL
313 +
314 +        The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer dereference
315 +        if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS algorithm and absent
316 +        mask generation function parameter. [CVE-2015-3194]
317 +
318 +        When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure, OpenSSL will leak
319 +        memory. [CVE-2015-3195]
320 +
321 +        If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then the values
322 +        are incorrectly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure.  [CVE-2015-3196]
323 +
324 +        Fix security on bsnmpd configuration file during installation.
325 +
326 +        TCP MD5 signature denial of service
327 +
328 +        A programming error in processing a TCP connection with both TCP_MD5SIG
329 +        and TCP_NOOPT socket options may lead to kernel crash.
330 +
331 +        SCTP
332 +
333 +        A lack of proper input checks in the ICMPv6 processing in the SCTP stack
334 +        can lead to either a failed kernel assertion or to a NULL pointer
335 +        dereference.  In either case, a kernel panic will follow.
336 +
337 + 20160102:
338 +        Happy New Year
339 +
340 + 20151101:
341 +        Increase kern.ipc.somaxconn default to 256.
342 +
343 + 20151017:
344 +        Add initial statistics api to libmport and a driver to print
345 +        it in mport(1).
346 +
347 + 20151002:
348 +        Revised rpcbind(8) patch to fix issues with NIS
349 +
350 + 20150930:
351 +        In rpcbind(8), netbuf structures are copied directly, which would result in
352 +        two netbuf structures that reference to one shared address buffer.  When one
353 +        of the two netbuf structures is freed, access to the other netbuf structure
354 +        would result in an undefined result that may crash the rpcbind(8) daemon.
355 +
356 + 20150926:
357 +        libmport now supports @preexec, @postexec, @preunexec and @postunexec
358 +        to replace @exec and @unexec.  
359 +
360 +        pre exec runs afer pre-install scripts but before actual installation
361 +
362 +        post exec runs after install but before post install scripts and
363 +        pkg message.
364 +
365 +        pre unexec runs before pre uninstall scripts
366 +
367 +        post unexec runs before de-install scripts and after file removal.
368 +
369 + 20150917:
370 +        Fix kqueue write events for files > 2GB
371 +
372 + 20150825:
373 +        kernel:
374 +        fix a security issue on amd64 where the GS segment CPU register can be changed via
375 +        userland value in kernel mode by using an IRET with #SS or #NP exceptions.
376 +
377 +        openssh:
378 +        A programming error in the privileged monitor process of the sshd(8)
379 +        service may allow the username of an already-authenticated user to be
380 +        overwritten by the unprivileged child process.
381 +
382 +        A use-after-free error in the privileged monitor process of he sshd(8)
383 +        service may be deterministically triggered by the actions of a
384 +        compromised unprivileged child process.
385 +
386 +        A use-after-free error in the session multiplexing code in the sshd(8)
387 +        service may result in unintended termination of the connection.
388 +
389 + 20150818:
390 +        expat security fix
391 +
392 + 20150815:
393 +        libc changes:
394 +        setmode(3) now returns errno consistently on error.
395 +        libc will compile without error using clang
396 +
397 + 20150814:
398 +        wait6 system call added.
399 +
400 +        date(1) now handles non numeric numbers passed to -r
401 +        like GNU coreutils for improved compatibility.
402 +
403 + 20150811:
404 +        ata(4) AMD Hudson2 SATA controller support.
405 +        Intel lynxpoint SATA.
406 +
407 +        Fix some const warnings when building several device drivers
408 +        with llvm/clang.
409 +
410 +        Sync cas(4) with FreeBSD 9-stable.
411 +
412 +        Fix some minor issues with ath(4).
413 +
414 + 20150809:
415 +        xz 5.0.8
416 +
417 + 20150808:
418 +        libmport now logs installation and removal of packages to syslog.
419 +
420 + 20150805:
421 +        routed - fix a potential security issue where traffic from outside
422 +        the network can disrupt routing.
423 +
424 +        bsd patch - fix a bug with ed(1) scripts allowing unsanitized input
425 +        to run.
426 +
427 + 20150802:
428 +        jansson 2.7 library added. (libjansson is a JSON library in C)
429 +
430 + 20150728:
431 +        Heimdal 1.5.2 (kerberos implementation)
432 +
433 +        OpenSSL 1.0.1o
434 +
435 +        cpucontrol(8) now supports VIA CPUs. Synced with FreeBSD 9.2.
436 +
437 +        TCP Resassemly resource exhaustion bug:
438 +        There is a mistake with the introduction of VNET, which converted the
439 +        global limit on the number of segments that could belong to reassembly
440 +        queues into a per-VNET limit.  Because mbufs are allocated from a
441 +        global pool, in the presence of a sufficient number of VNETs, the
442 +        total number of mbufs attached to reassembly queues can grow to the
443 +        total number of mbufs in the system, at which point all network
444 +        traffic would cease.
445 +        Obtained from: FreeBSD 8
446 +
447 +        OpenSSH
448 +
449 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities:
450 +        OpenSSH clients does not correctly verify DNS SSHFP records when a server
451 +        offers a certificate. [CVE-2014-2653]
452 +
453 +        OpenSSH servers which are configured to allow password authentication
454 +        using PAM (default) would allow many password attempts. A bug allows
455 +        MaxAuthTries to be bypassed. [CVE-2015-5600]
456 +
457 +
458 +        Switch to bsdpatch (from FreeBSD & OpenBSD)
459 +
460 + 20150726:
461 +        BSD Sort updated
462 +
463 +        sqlite 3.8.10.2
464 +
465 + 20150725:
466 +        Import reallocarray from OpenBSD's libc.  
467 +
468 +        The reallocarray() function is similar to realloc() except it operates on
469 +        nmemb members of size size and checks for integer overflow in the
470 +        calculation nmemb * size.
471 +
472 + 20150722:
473 +        Fix a bug where TCP connections transitioning to LAST_ACK
474 +        state can get stuck. This can result in a denial of service.
475 +
476 + 20150715:
477 +        libmport now supports @shell and @sample in plists. This means that
478 +        a shell port can automatically add an entry to /etc/shells and remove
479 +        it upon uninstallation. For sample files, a copy is made without the
480 +        .sample extension if one does not exist and it is removed automatically
481 +        only if the md5 hash of the two files is the same.
482 +
483 + 20150709:
484 +        flex 2.5.39
485 +
486 + 20150702:
487 +        ZFS in MidnightBSD now supports lz4 compression. You can enable it
488 +        with zfs set compression=lz4 pool/path.
489 +
490 +        Verify it's working with
491 +        zfs get compressratio pool/path
492 +        du -h -s *
493 +
494 +        Note you must write new data when turning on compression to see
495 +        changes. Existing files are not compressed.
496 +
497 +        Note: While we used the same basic implementation of lz4 that
498 +        FreeBSD and OpenZFS uses, we did not yet implement features support
499 +        and the zfs version still reports 28. This may come in a future update
500 +        to ZFS.
501 +
502 + 20150621:
503 +        libmport now automatically stops services when deleting packages.
504 +
505 +        The package must have installed an rc.d script in /usr/local/etc
506 +        for this to work. This is equivalent to running service <name> onestop
507 +
508 + 20150618:
509 +        Sendmail
510 +
511 +        With the recent changes to OpenSSL to block 512 bit certificates,
512 +        sendmail can't connect with TLS to some servers.
513 +
514 +        Increase the default size to 1024 bit for client connections to
515 +        match the server configuration.
516 +
517 +        ZFS
518 +
519 +        Added ZFS TRIM support which is enabled by default. To disable
520 +        ZFS TRIM support set vfs.zfs.trim.enabled=0 in loader.conf.
521 +
522 +        Creating new ZFS pools and adding new devices to existing pools
523 +        first performs a full device level TRIM which can take a significant
524 +        amount of time. The sysctl vfs.zfs.vdev.trim_on_init can be set to 0
525 +        to disable this behaviour.
526 +
527 +        ZFS TRIM requires the underlying device support BIO_DELETE which
528 +        is currently provided by methods such as ATA TRIM and SCSI UNMAP
529 +        via CAM, which are typically supported by SSD's.
530 +
531 +        Stats for ZFS TRIM can be monitored by looking at the sysctl's
532 +        under kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim.
533 +
534 +        rc.d
535 +
536 +        Reworked handling of cleanvar and FILESYSTEMS so that FILESYSTEMS
537 +        implies everything is mounted and ready to go.
538 +
539 +        Changed how ip6addressctl maps IPv6 on startup.

552 +        sqlite 3.8.9
553 +
554 + 20150407:
555 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities:
556 +
557 +        The previous fix for IGMP had an overflow issue. This has been corrected.
558 +
559 +        ipv6: The Neighbor Discover Protocol allows a local router to advertise a
560 +        suggested Current Hop Limit value of a link, which will replace
561 +        Current Hop Limit on an interface connected to the link on the MidnightBSD
562 +        system.

572 +        Upgrade OpenSSL to 0.9.8ze
573 +
574 + 20150225:
575 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
576 +
577 +        1. BIND servers which are configured to perform DNSSEC validation and which
578 +        are using managed keys (which occurs implicitly when using
579 +        "dnssec-validation auto;" or "dnssec-lookaside auto;") may exhibit
580 +        unpredictable behavior due to the use of an improperly initialized
581 +        variable.
582 +
583 +        CVE-2015-1349
584 +
585 +        2. An integer overflow in computing the size of IGMPv3 data buffer can result
586 +        in a buffer which is too small for the requested operation.
587 +
588 +        This can result in a DOS attack.
589 +
590 + 20141211:
591 +        Fix a security issue with file and libmagic that can allow
592 +        an attacker to create a denial of service attack on any
593 +        program that uses libmagic.
594 +
595 + 20141109:
596 +        Fix building perl during buildworld when the GDBM port is installed.
597 +
598 + 20141106:

608 + 20141028:
609 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8zc
610 +
611 + 20141021:
612 +        Fix several security vulnerabilities in routed, rtsold,
613 +        and namei with respect to Capsicum sandboxes looking up
614 +        nonexistent path names and leaking memory.
615 +
616 +        The input path in routed(8) will accept queries from any source and
617 +        attempt to answer them.  However, the output path assumes that the
618 +        destination address for the response is on a directly connected
619 +        network.
620 +
621 +        Due to a missing length check in the code that handles DNS parameters,
622 +        a malformed router advertisement message can result in a stack buffer
623 +        overflow in rtsold(8).
624 +
625 + 20141011:

641 +        getting up to date.
642 +
643 + 20141001:
644 +        mksh R50b
645 +
646 +        libmport now supports plist commands @dir, @owner, @group, @mode.
647 +
648 +        sudo 1.7.6p2
649 +
650 + 20140916:
651 +        Fix a security issue with TCP SYN.
652 +
653 +        When a segment with the SYN flag for an already existing connection arrives,
654 +        the TCP stack tears down the connection, bypassing a check that the
655 +        sequence number in the segment is in the expected window.
656 +
657 + 20140909:
658 +        Fixed a bug with our clearenv(3) implementation that caused segfaults
659 +        with some programs including Dovecot.
660 +
661 +        OpenSSL security patch:
662 +
663 +        The receipt of a specifically crafted DTLS handshake message may cause OpenSSL
664 +        to consume large amounts of memory. [CVE-2014-3506]
665 +
666 +        The receipt of a specifically crafted DTLS packet could cause OpenSSL to leak
667 +        memory. [CVE-2014-3507]
668 +
669 +        A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
670 +        X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information from
671 +        the stack. [CVE-2014-3508]
672 +
673 +        OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject to
674 +        a denial of service attack. [CVE-2014-3510]
675 +
676 + 20140902:
677 +        We're now 0.6-CURRENT
678 +
679 +        Update USB quirks to support K70 Corsair keyboard, and several
680 +        other devices.
681 +
682 + 20140827:

686 +        Jails now run shutdown scripts.
687 +
688 + 20140710:
689 +        Fix a vulnerability in the control message API. A buffer is not properly cleared
690 +        before sharing with userland.
691 +
692 + 20140701:
693 +        MKSH R50
694 +

697 +
698 + 20140605:
699 +        Fix four security issues with OpenSSL
700 +
701 + 20140604:
702 +        Sendmail failed to properly set close-on-exec for open file descriptors.
703 +
704 +        ktrace page fault kernel trace entries were set to an incorrect size which resulted
705 +        in a leak of information.
706 +
707 + 20140430:
708 +        Fix a TCP reassembly bug that could result in a DOS attack
709 +        of the system. It may be possible to obtain portions
710 +        of kernel memory as well.
711 +
712 + 20140411:
713 +        Update zlib to 1.2.7
714 +
715 + 20140122:
716 +        Support for username with length 32. Previous limit was 16
717 +
718 + 20140114:

720 +
721 +        bsnmpd contains a stack overflow when sent certain queries.
722 +
723 +        bind 9.8 when using NSEC3-signed zones zones, will crash with special
724 +        crafted packets.
725 +
726 + 20131228:
727 +        Imported FreeBSD 9.2 usb stack (plus z87 patches from stable)
728 +
729 +        Updated em(4), igb(4) and ixgbe(4)
730 +
731 +        MidnightBSD now works with Z87 Intel chipsets.
732 +
733 + 20131207:
734 +        Remove sparc64 architecture. It hasn't been working for awhile
735 +        and it's not useful for desktops anymore.
736 +
737 + 20131205:
738 +        OpenSSH 6.4p1
739 +
740 + 20131203:
741 +        Perl 5.18.1 imported.
742 +
743 +        Update less to v458
744 +
745 + 20131130:
746 +        Remove named from base. We still include the client utilities for

748 +
749 + 20131004:
750 +        rarpd supports vlan(4) and has a pid flag. (from FreeBSD)
751 +
752 + 20130917:
753 +        Support for 65,536 routing tables was added.  A new fib specific
754 +        field has been added to mbuf.  This is an increase from 16.
755 +
756 + 20130910:
757 +        Security updates: (kern.osreldate 5001)
758 +
759 +        nullfs(5)
760 +
761 +        The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not
762 +        check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same
763 +        nullfs instance.  It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a
764 +        location in one nullfs instance to a file in another, as long as the
765 +        underlying (source) filesystem is the same.
766 +
767 +        ifioctl
768 +
769 +        As is commonly the case, the IPv6 and ATM network layer ioctl request
770 +        handlers are written in such a way that an unrecognized request is
771 +        passed on unmodified to the link layer, which will either handle it or
772 +        return an error code.
773 +
774 +        Network interface drivers, however, assume that the SIOCSIFADDR,
775 +        SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been
776 +        handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input
777 +        validation or verify the caller's credentials.  Typical link-layer
778 +        actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up"
779 +        and resetting the underlying hardware.
780 +
781 + 20130824:
782 +        Fix a bug in sendmail 8.14.7 that interferes with how it
783 +        handles AAAA records interoperating with Microsoft DNS servers.
784 +        FreeBSD has already reported this to Sendmail and a fix
785 +        will be included in the next release.
786 +
787 +        Subversion 1.8.1 is now in the base system as a static
788 +        binary.  It has limited functionality, but can be used to
789 +        checkout/commit code.  It is named svnlite.
790 +
791 + 20130822:
792 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
793 +
794 +        Fix an integer overflow in IP_MSFILTER (IP MULTICAST).
795 +        This could be exploited to read memory by a user process.
796 +
797 +        When initializing the SCTP state cookie being sent in INIT-ACK chunks,
798 +        a buffer allocated from the kernel stack is not completely initialized.

856 +        BIND security update related to CVE-2012-1667.
857 +
858 +        Zero length resource records can cause BIND to crash resulting

883 +
884 +        pam: don't allow escape from policy path.  Exploitable in KDE, etc.
885 +
886 +        Fix pam_ssh module:
887 +
888 +        If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access
889 +        to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys.
890 +
891 +        This has to due with the way that openssl works.  It ignores unencrpted data.
892 +
893 +        Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd.
894 +
895 +        nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some
896 +        operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security
897 +        hole in things like ftpd.

945 + 20111019:
946 +        awk 20110810 imported
947 +
948 +        et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
949 +        not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
950 +        testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
951 +
952 +        intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
953 +        specific CPU core.
954 +
955 + 20111017:
956 +        Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
957 +
958 +        Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
959 +
960 + 20111015:
961 +        Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
962 +        to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
963 +        process. Several new system calls were added to support this
964 +        functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
965 +        compatibility on amd64.
966 +
967 +        The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
968 +        amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
969 +        for this feature.
970 +
971 +        This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
972 +
973 + 20111004:
974 +        Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent
975 +        patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network
976 +        apps to work under the linuxolator again.
977 +
978 + 20111001:
979 +        Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is
980 +        now default and an environment variable must be set to use
981 +        active.
982 +
983 + 20110930:
984 +        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
985 +        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
986 +
987 +        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
988 +        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
989 +        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
990 +        offloading.
991 +
992 +        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
993 +        working with large raid3 sets.
994 +
995 +        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
996 +
997 + 20110929:
998 +        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
999 +
1000 +        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
1001 +        removed from loader.conf:
1002 +        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
1003 +
1004 +        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
1005 +        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
1006 +        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
1007 +
1008 + 20110928:
1009 +        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
1010 +        files that are corrupted.
1011 +
1012 +        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
1013 +
1014 + 20110917:
1015 +        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
1016 +        it's in the base system.
1017 +
1018 + 20110914:
1019 +        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
1020 +
1021 + 20110813:
1022 +        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
1023 +
1024 + 20110806:
1025 +        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
1026 +
1027 +        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
1028 +        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
1029 +        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
1030 +        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
1031 +        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
1032 +        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
1033 +
1034 +        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
1035 +        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
1036 +
1037 + 20110710:
1038 +        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
1039 +        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
1040 +
1041 +        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
1042 +
1043 + 20110709:
1044 +        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
1045 +        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
1046 +
1047 + 20110612:
1048 +        Update mksh to R40
1049 +
1050 +        Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x.  Good to run when
1051 +        updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old)
1052 +
1053 + 20110528:
1054 +        Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x.  This affects caching resolvers.
1055 +
1056 + 20110526:
1057 +        newfs:
1058 +        Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from
1059 +        16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
1060 +
1061 +        This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format"
1062 +        hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type
1063 +        have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes.  Of course
1064 +        the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk.
1065 +
1066 + 20110521:
1067 +        mport tool now has a deleteall command.  This can be used to remove
1068 +        all packages from a system.
1069 +
1070 +        A few bugs with the perl 5.14 import have been fixed.
1071 +
1072 + 20110518:
1073 +        Perl 5.14.0
1074 +
1075 + 20110517:
1076 +        Sendmail 8.14.5
1077 +
1078 + 20110314:
1079 +        DRM/DRI code updated to support newer video cards. (FreeBSD 7.1)
1080 +
1081 +        cdevpriv wrappers added
1082 +
1083 +        nss_mdns hack introduced to work around linking problem.
1084 +
1085 +        dnsextd fixed after update to mDNSResponder code.
1086 +
1087 + 20110308:
1088 +        Introduce liblzma & xz 5.0.1 to the base system
1089 +
1090 +        Patch for OpenSSL security issue CVE-2011-0014.
1091 +
1092 +        "OSREVISION 4004"
1093 +
1094 +        nsswitch module for multicast dns (nss_mdns) added.
1095 +
1096 +        tzdata2011c
1097 +
1098 + 20110220:
1099 +        cam(4) syncronized with FreeBSD 7.3.
1100 +
1101 + 20110219:
1102 +        amdtemp(4) updated to support sensors framework.
1103 +
1104 + 20110217:
1105 +        Perl 5.10.1 imported
1106 +
1107 + 20110216:
1108 +        Introduce igb(4) and split Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters between
1109 +        igb(4) and em(4).  Newer devices use igb(4).  The code has moved
1110 +        to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has
1111 +        been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64.
1112 +
1113 +        Update bfe(4) to support newer devices and WOL.
1114 +
1115 + 20110215:
1116 +        age(4) added.
1117 +
1118 + 20110208:
1119 +        BIND 9.6.3 which fixes a bug with DNSSEC records getting added.
1120 +
1121 + 20110206:
1122 +        eeemon(4) added to monitor Asus Eee PC.
1123 +
1124 + 20110205:
1125 +        OpenSSH 5.7p1
1126 +
1127 +        GNU sort 6.9 (coreutils)
1128 +
1129 + 20110203:
1130 +        one true awk 20100523 imported
1131 +
1132 +        sqlite 3.7.5
1133 +
1134 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8q
1135 +
1136 + 20110202:
1137 +        tcsh 6.17.00
1138 +
1139 +        file 5.05
1140 +
1141 + 20110122:
1142 +        Import it(4) and lm(4), with support for Super I/O hardware monitors. This
1143 +        uses the sensors framework ported by Constantine A. Murenin (GSOC2007)
1144 +
1145 + 20110120:
1146 +        BIND 9.6.2-P3
1147 +
1148 +        sudo 1.7.4-p6
1149 +
1150 + 20110115:
1151 +        Add experimental jme(4) for Jmicron ethernet devices.
1152 +
1153 + 20101130:
1154 +        A double free exists in the SSL client ECDH handling code, when
1155 +        processing specially crafted public keys with invalid prime
1156 +        numbers. [CVE-2010-2939]
1157 +
1158 + 20101120:
1159 +        Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file
1160 +        systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due
1161 +        to use of int types.  Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified
1162 +        our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts
1163 +        which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB.
1164 +
1165 +        newfs and growfs was also modified.
1166 +
1167 + 20101110:
1168 +        Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel
1169 +        context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration.  This affects file
1170 +        systems such as procfs for instance.
1171 +
1172 + 20101021:
1173 +        sysrc is a utility to print and modify name/value pairs in /etc/rc.conf easily.
1174 +        This is similar to functions present in many linux distros. The utility was
1175 +        written by Devin Teske for FreeBSD.
1176 +
1177 + 20100920:
1178 +        bzip2 security patch for integer overflow.
1179 +
1180 + 20100905:
1181 +        MidnightBSD RELENG_0_3 branch created.  Aggressive development continues here
1182 +        for 0.4.
1183 +
1184 + 20100902:
1185 +        Fix a security issue with libutil that allows users to bypass cpu limits in
1186 +        login.conf in some cases.  This combined with OpenSSH for example can allow
1187 +        the user to get more resources than they're allowed.
1188 +
1189 + 20100822:
1190 +        Import Apple's mDNSResponder (mdnsd).
1191 +
1192 + 20100814:
1193 +        libdispatch added to MidnightBSD.  This provides functionality found in
1194 +        Mac OS X's GCD.  We do not have blocks support yet.  As this code is
1195 +        licensed under Apache 2, we create a new MK_APACHE option so that
1196 +        it's not required for all users to run code under a license they
1197 +        may not like.
1198 +
1199 + 20100713:
1200 +        mbuf readonly fix related to sendfile(2) data corruption.
1201 +
1202 + 20100704:
1203 +        brainfuck(1) imported from MirBSD.
1204 +
1205 + 20100505:
1206 +        zlib 1.2.5
1207 +
1208   20100430:
1209          Sudo 1.7.2p6 imported
