37 +
38 +        Perl 5.26.0
39 +
40 +        Change 0.10 version to 1.0. There are several compatibility issues
41 +        with using 0.10 as the trailing zero is dropped in several utilities
42 +        making it look like 0.1.
43 +
44 + 20170918:
45 +        Introduce nvme(4) and nvd(4) from FreeBSD.

65 +        GEOM has released references to it.
66 +
67 + 20170219:
68 +        Add /dev/full device.
69 +
70 +        The lindev device has been removed since /dev/full has been made a
71 +        standard device.
72 +
73 +        Serf 1.3.9
74 +        Subversion 1.8.10
75 +        apr 1.5.2

81 + 20161105:
82 +        BIND 9.9.9-p4
83 +
84 +        OpenSSH 7.3p1
85 +
86 + 20161103:
87 +        OpenSSL security patch
88 +
89 +        Due to improper handling of alert packets, OpenSSL would consume an excessive
90 +        amount of CPU time processing undefined alert messages.
91 +
92 + 20161015:
93 +        libarchive 3.2.1
94 +
95 +        xz 5.2.2
96 +
97 + 20161013:
98 +        Sync ZFS code with Illuminos/FreeBSD 9.2. Added support for
99 +        feature flags, pool version 5000. This also includes some
100 +        bug fixes and performance optimizations.
101 +
102 + 20160925:
103 +        Import NetBSD vis(3) and unvis(3) as well as mtree.
104 +
105 +        one-true-awk 20121220
106 +
107 +        inetd now honors kern.ipc.somaxconn value.
108 +
109 +        netmap synced with FreeBSD 9.2
110 +
111 +        linuxolator now has dtrace probes.
112 +
113 +        bsdgrep now correctly handles -m to exclude only one file.
114 +
115 +        UFS file systems can now be resized in read-write mode due to the new
116 +        write suspension feature.
117 +
118 +        Basic support added for Intel Raid Recover Technology.
119 +
120 +        GMIRROR & GRAID3 now mark volumes clean on shutdown earlier to help with ZFS issues.
121 +
122 +        Highpoint hpt27xx now in GENERIC kernel.
123 +
124 + 20160923:
125 +        Security update for OpenSSL
126 +
127 +        A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request extension.
128 +        If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a large OCSP Status
129 +        Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded memory growth on the
130 +        server. [CVE-2016-6304]
131 +
132 +        An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or through
133 +        the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker is able to supply
134 +        very large amounts of input data after a previous call to EVP_EncryptUpdate()
135 +        with a partial block then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
136 +        corruption. [CVE-2016-6303]
137 +
138 +        If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
139 +        DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
140 +        ultimately crash. [CVE-2016-6302]
141 +
142 +        The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
143 +        This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
144 +        overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
145 +        or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
146 +        record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.
147 +        [CVE-2016-2182]
148 +
149 +        The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
150 +        the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
151 +        of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are presented.
152 +        [CVE-2016-2180]
153 +
154 +        Some calculations of limits in OpenSSL have used undefined pointer arithmetic.
155 +        This could cause problems with some malloc implementations. [CVE-2016-2177]
156 +
157 +        Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in order to
158 +        avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA implementation means that
159 +        a non-constant time codepath is followed for certain operations. [CVE-2016-2178]
160 +
161 +        In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order those
162 +        messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered for later
163 +        use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that those messages
164 +        do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake has been completed.
165 +        An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to remain in the buffer when
166 +        they are no longer required. These messages will be cleared when the DTLS
167 +        connection is closed. The default maximum size for a message is 100k. Therefore
168 +        the attacker could force an additional 1500k to be consumed per connection.
169 +        [CVE-2016-2179]
170 +
171 +        A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records that
172 +        arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before the MAC
173 +        for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an attacker by
174 +        sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to decrypt or have a
175 +        valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means that all subsequent
176 +        legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of service for a specific
177 +        DTLS connection. [CVE-2016-2181]
178 +
179 +        In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result in
180 +        OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a theoretical
181 +        DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common platforms.
182 +        [CVE-2016-6306]
183 +
184 + 20160918:
185 +        With the addition of auditdistd(8), a new auditdistd user is now
186 +        depended on during installworld.  "mergemaster -p" can be used to add
187 +        the user prior to installworld.
188 +
189 +        The VFS KBI was changed with the merge of several nullfs
190 +        optimizations and fixes.  All filesystem modules must be
191 +        recompiled.
192 +
193 + 20160916:
194 +        The random(4) support for the VIA hardware random number
195 +        generator (`PADLOCK') is no longer enabled unconditionally.
196 +        Add the PADLOCK_RNG option in the custom kernel config if
197 +        needed.  The GENERIC kernels on i386 and amd64 do include the
198 +        option, so the change only affects the custom kernel
199 +        configurations.
200 +
201 +        A new version of ZFS (pool version 5000) has been merged.
202 +        Starting with this version the old system of ZFS pool versioning
203 +        is superseded by "feature flags". This concept enables forward
204 +        compatibility against certain future changes in functionality of ZFS
205 +        pools. The first two read-only compatible "feature flags" for ZFS
206 +        pools are "com.delphix:async_destroy" and "com.delphix:empty_bpobj".
207 +        For more information read the new zpool-features(7) manual page.
208 +        Please refer to the "ZFS notes" section of this file for information
209 +        on upgrading boot ZFS pools.
210 +
211 + 20160906:
212 +        Add support for the MosChip MCS9904 four serial ports
213 +        controller.
214 +
215 +        Add support for walltimestamp in DTrace.
216 +
217 +        Various gdb improvments.
218 +
219 +        ZFS
220 +        Import the zio nop-write improvement from Illumos. To reduce I/O,
221 +        nop-write omits overwriting data if the checksum (cryptographically
222 +        secure) of new data matches the checksum of existing data.
223 +        It also saves space if snapshots are in use.
224 +
225 +        It currently works only on datasets with enabled compression, disabled
226 +        deduplication and sha256 checksums.
227 +
228 +        Add loader(8) tunable to enable/disable nopwrite functionality:
229 +        vfs.zfs.nopwrite_enabled
230 +
231 +        Introduce a new dataset aclmode setting "restricted" to protect ACL's
232 +        being destroyed or corrupted by a drive-by chmod.
233 +
234 +        New loader-only tunables:
235 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_deferred_free
236 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_dont_compress
237 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_rewrite
238 +
239 +        chkgrp(8) add support for q flag
240 +
241 +        Fix problem with the Samsung 840 PRO series SSD detection.
242 +        The device reports support for SATA Asynchronous Notification in its
243 +        IDENTIFY data, but returns error on attempt to enable that feature.
244 +        Make SATA XPT of CAM only report these errors, but not fail the device.
245 +
246 + 20160905:
247 +        Add a resource limit for the total number of kqueues
248 +        available to the user. Kqueue now saves the ucred of the
249 +        allocating thread, to correctly decrement the counter on close.
250 +        Based on FreeBSD SVN 256849
251 +
252 +        Import netcat from OpenBSD 5.2
253 +
254 + 20160904:
255 +        Introduced experimental TCP sysctls starting with
256 +        net.inet.tcp.experimental.initcwnd10
257 +
258 + 20160814:
259 +        switched default desktop port to midnightbsd-desktop. This gives us flexibility to change it
260 +        in the release after the fact.
261 +
262 +        tzdata 2016a
263 +
264 + 20160811:
265 +        libdispatch 210
266 +
267 +        Added quirks for several models of SSDs to enable advanced format/4k mode. List includes
268 +        Samsung 830, 840, 850 and 750 series, Intel x25 and a few Toshiba models. Also
269 +        added WD Red drives.
270 +
271 +        Updated list of pci device vendors.
272 +
273 +        Updated list of usb devices.
274 +
275 + 20160807:
276 +        Implement several changes to libmport to fix some memory corruption issues.
277 +
278 + 20160806:
279 +        sqlite3 3.13.0
280 +
281 + 20160805:
282 +        Merged fixes for libmport that improve error handling when installing packages. Also
283 +        support mkdir -p like behavior for plist entries.
284 +
285 + 20160531:
286 +        Fix four security issues with MidnightBSD.
287 +
288 +        The implementation of TIOCGSERIAL ioctl(2) does not clear the output
289 +        struct before sending to userland in the linux emulation layer.
290 +
291 +        The compat 43 stat(2) system call exposes kernel stack to userland.
292 +
293 +        libarchive - CVE-2015-2304 and CVE-2013-0211 fix issues with
294 +        cpio directory traversal and an integer signedness error in the archive
295 +        write zip data routine.
296 +
297 +
298 + 20160528:
299 +        Fixed minor issues with mined(1) and msearch(1).
300 +
301 + 20160526:
302 +        Add support for Ivybridge and Haswell Intel CPUs to hwpmc(4).
303 +
304 +        Fix libpmc(3) build with clang compiler.
305 +
306 + 20160519:
307 +        Kernel Security updates
308 +
309 +        atkbd(4) - Incorrect signedness comparison in the ioctl(2) handler allows a malicious
310 +        local user to overwrite a portion of the kernel memory.
311 +
312 +        Incorrect argument handling in sendmsg(2)
313 +
314 +        Incorrect argument handling in the socket code allows malicious local
315 +        user to overwrite large portion of the kernel memory.
316 +
317 + 20160505:
318 +        OpenSSL security patch
319 +
320 +        The padding check in AES-NI CBC MAC was rewritten to be in constant time
321 +        by making sure that always the same bytes are read and compared against
322 +        either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer checked that there was
323 +        enough data to have both the MAC and padding bytes. [CVE-2016-2107]
324 +
325 +        An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
326 +        Base64 encoding of binary data. [CVE-2016-2105]
327 +
328 +        An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function, however it is
329 +        believed that there can be no overflows in internal code due to this problem.
330 +        [CVE-2016-2106]
331 +
332 +        When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
333 +        a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
334 +        potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
335 +        [CVE-2016-2109]
336 +
337 + 20160412:
338 +        0.8 stable branch created. Continue development as 0.9.
339 +
340 +        Fix several issues with wait6 system call addition.
341 +
342 + 20160409:
343 +        libmport now supports two new plist formats:
344 +        @(root,wheel,4775) myfile
345 +        @dir(root,wheel,775) mydir
346 +
347 +        On delete, absoluate paths are now handled properly.
348 +
349 + 20160317:
350 +        OpenSSH doesn't have the luck of the Irish.
351 +
352 +        Fix a security issue with OpenSSH X11 forwarding that can allow an attacker
353 +        run shell commands on the call to xauth.
354 +
355 +        Incorrect argument validation in sysarch(2)
356 +
357 +        A special combination of sysarch(2) arguments, specify a request to
358 +        uninstall a set of descriptors from the LDT.  The start descriptor
359 +        is cleared and the number of descriptors are provided.  Due to invalid
360 +        use of a signed intermediate value in the bounds checking during argument
361 +        validity verification, unbound zero'ing of the process LDT and adjacent
362 +        memory can be initiated from usermode.
363 +
364 +        Patch obtained from FreeBSD.
365 +
366 + 20160229:
367 +        top now displays information on ZFS arc cache.
368 +
369 + 20160228:
370 +        llvm + clang 3.3 is now the default compiler in MidnightBSD.
371 +
372 + 20160222:
373 +        Introduce pipe2 to linux emulation layer.
374 +
375 + 20160114:
376 +        OpenSSL
377 +
378 +        The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer dereference
379 +        if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS algorithm and absent
380 +        mask generation function parameter. [CVE-2015-3194]
381 +
382 +        When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure, OpenSSL will leak
383 +        memory. [CVE-2015-3195]
384 +
385 +        If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then the values
386 +        are incorrectly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure.  [CVE-2015-3196]
387 +
388 +        Fix security on bsnmpd configuration file during installation.
389 +
390 +        TCP MD5 signature denial of service
391 +
392 +        A programming error in processing a TCP connection with both TCP_MD5SIG
393 +        and TCP_NOOPT socket options may lead to kernel crash.
394 +
395 +        SCTP
396 +
397 +        A lack of proper input checks in the ICMPv6 processing in the SCTP stack
398 +        can lead to either a failed kernel assertion or to a NULL pointer
399 +        dereference.  In either case, a kernel panic will follow.
400 +
401 + 20160102:
402 +        Happy New Year
403 +
404 + 20151101:
405 +        Increase kern.ipc.somaxconn default to 256.
406 +
407 + 20151017:
408 +        Add initial statistics api to libmport and a driver to print
409 +        it in mport(1).
410 +
411 + 20151002:
412 +        Revised rpcbind(8) patch to fix issues with NIS
413 +
414 + 20150930:
415 +        In rpcbind(8), netbuf structures are copied directly, which would result in
416 +        two netbuf structures that reference to one shared address buffer.  When one
417 +        of the two netbuf structures is freed, access to the other netbuf structure
418 +        would result in an undefined result that may crash the rpcbind(8) daemon.
419 +
420 + 20150926:
421 +        libmport now supports @preexec, @postexec, @preunexec and @postunexec
422 +        to replace @exec and @unexec.  
423 +
424 +        pre exec runs afer pre-install scripts but before actual installation
425 +
426 +        post exec runs after install but before post install scripts and
427 +        pkg message.
428 +
429 +        pre unexec runs before pre uninstall scripts
430 +
431 +        post unexec runs before de-install scripts and after file removal.
432 +
433 + 20150917:
434 +        Fix kqueue write events for files > 2GB
435 +
436 + 20150825:
437 +        kernel:
438 +        fix a security issue on amd64 where the GS segment CPU register can be changed via
439 +        userland value in kernel mode by using an IRET with #SS or #NP exceptions.
440 +
441 +        openssh:
442 +        A programming error in the privileged monitor process of the sshd(8)
443 +        service may allow the username of an already-authenticated user to be
444 +        overwritten by the unprivileged child process.
445 +
446 +        A use-after-free error in the privileged monitor process of he sshd(8)
447 +        service may be deterministically triggered by the actions of a
448 +        compromised unprivileged child process.
449 +
450 +        A use-after-free error in the session multiplexing code in the sshd(8)
451 +        service may result in unintended termination of the connection.
452 +
453 + 20150818:
454 +        expat security fix
455 +
456 + 20150815:
457 +        libc changes:
458 +        setmode(3) now returns errno consistently on error.
459 +        libc will compile without error using clang
460 +
461 + 20150814:
462 +        wait6 system call added.
463 +
464 +        date(1) now handles non numeric numbers passed to -r
465 +        like GNU coreutils for improved compatibility.
466 +
467 + 20150811:
468 +        ata(4) AMD Hudson2 SATA controller support.
469 +        Intel lynxpoint SATA.
470 +
471 +        Fix some const warnings when building several device drivers
472 +        with llvm/clang.
473 +
474 +        Sync cas(4) with FreeBSD 9-stable.
475 +
476 +        Fix some minor issues with ath(4).
477 +
478 + 20150809:
479 +        xz 5.0.8
480 +
481 + 20150808:
482 +        libmport now logs installation and removal of packages to syslog.
483 +
484 + 20150805:
485 +        routed - fix a potential security issue where traffic from outside
486 +        the network can disrupt routing.
487 +
488 +        bsd patch - fix a bug with ed(1) scripts allowing unsanitized input
489 +        to run.
490 +
491 + 20150802:
492 +        jansson 2.7 library added. (libjansson is a JSON library in C)
493 +
494 + 20150728:
495 +        Heimdal 1.5.2 (kerberos implementation)
496 +
497 +        OpenSSL 1.0.1o
498 +
499 +        cpucontrol(8) now supports VIA CPUs. Synced with FreeBSD 9.2.
500 +
501 +        TCP Resassemly resource exhaustion bug:
502 +        There is a mistake with the introduction of VNET, which converted the
503 +        global limit on the number of segments that could belong to reassembly
504 +        queues into a per-VNET limit.  Because mbufs are allocated from a
505 +        global pool, in the presence of a sufficient number of VNETs, the
506 +        total number of mbufs attached to reassembly queues can grow to the
507 +        total number of mbufs in the system, at which point all network
508 +        traffic would cease.
509 +        Obtained from: FreeBSD 8
510 +
511 +        OpenSSH
512 +
513 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities:
514 +        OpenSSH clients does not correctly verify DNS SSHFP records when a server
515 +        offers a certificate. [CVE-2014-2653]
516 +
517 +        OpenSSH servers which are configured to allow password authentication
518 +        using PAM (default) would allow many password attempts. A bug allows
519 +        MaxAuthTries to be bypassed. [CVE-2015-5600]
520 +
521 +
522 +        Switch to bsdpatch (from FreeBSD & OpenBSD)
523 +
524 + 20150726:
525 +        BSD Sort updated
526 +
527 +        sqlite 3.8.10.2
528 +
529 + 20150725:
530 +        Import reallocarray from OpenBSD's libc.  
531 +
532 +        The reallocarray() function is similar to realloc() except it operates on
533 +        nmemb members of size size and checks for integer overflow in the
534 +        calculation nmemb * size.
535 +
536 + 20150722:
537 +        Fix a bug where TCP connections transitioning to LAST_ACK
538 +        state can get stuck. This can result in a denial of service.
539 +
540 + 20150715:
541 +        libmport now supports @shell and @sample in plists. This means that
542 +        a shell port can automatically add an entry to /etc/shells and remove
543 +        it upon uninstallation. For sample files, a copy is made without the
544 +        .sample extension if one does not exist and it is removed automatically
545 +        only if the md5 hash of the two files is the same.
546 +
547 + 20150709:
548 +        flex 2.5.39
549 +
550 + 20150702:
551 +        ZFS in MidnightBSD now supports lz4 compression. You can enable it
552 +        with zfs set compression=lz4 pool/path.
553 +
554 +        Verify it's working with
555 +        zfs get compressratio pool/path
556 +        du -h -s *
557 +
558 +        Note you must write new data when turning on compression to see
559 +        changes. Existing files are not compressed.
560 +
561 +        Note: While we used the same basic implementation of lz4 that
562 +        FreeBSD and OpenZFS uses, we did not yet implement features support
563 +        and the zfs version still reports 28. This may come in a future update
564 +        to ZFS.
565 +
566 + 20150621:
567 +        libmport now automatically stops services when deleting packages.
568 +
569 +        The package must have installed an rc.d script in /usr/local/etc
570 +        for this to work. This is equivalent to running service <name> onestop
571 +
572 + 20150618:
573 +        Sendmail
574 +
575 +        With the recent changes to OpenSSL to block 512 bit certificates,
576 +        sendmail can't connect with TLS to some servers.
577 +
578 +        Increase the default size to 1024 bit for client connections to
579 +        match the server configuration.
580 +
581 +        ZFS
582 +
583 +        Added ZFS TRIM support which is enabled by default. To disable
584 +        ZFS TRIM support set vfs.zfs.trim.enabled=0 in loader.conf.
585 +
586 +        Creating new ZFS pools and adding new devices to existing pools
587 +        first performs a full device level TRIM which can take a significant
588 +        amount of time. The sysctl vfs.zfs.vdev.trim_on_init can be set to 0
589 +        to disable this behaviour.
590 +
591 +        ZFS TRIM requires the underlying device support BIO_DELETE which
592 +        is currently provided by methods such as ATA TRIM and SCSI UNMAP
593 +        via CAM, which are typically supported by SSD's.
594 +
595 +        Stats for ZFS TRIM can be monitored by looking at the sysctl's
596 +        under kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim.
597 +
598 +        rc.d
599 +
600 +        Reworked handling of cleanvar and FILESYSTEMS so that FILESYSTEMS
601 +        implies everything is mounted and ready to go.
602 +
603 +        Changed how ip6addressctl maps IPv6 on startup.
604 +
605 + 20150613:
606 +        tzdata 2015d
607 +
608 + 20150612:
609 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8zg
610 +
611 + 20150419:
612 +        MidnightBSD 0.6 stable branch created. Continue 0.7
613 +        development.
614 +
615 + 20150418:
616 +        sqlite 3.8.9
617 +
618 + 20150407:
619 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities:
620 +
621 +        The previous fix for IGMP had an overflow issue. This has been corrected.
622 +
623 +        ipv6: The Neighbor Discover Protocol allows a local router to advertise a
624 +        suggested Current Hop Limit value of a link, which will replace
625 +        Current Hop Limit on an interface connected to the link on the MidnightBSD
626 +        system.
627 +
628 + 20150319:
629 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8.zf
630 +
631 +        mksh R50e
632 +
633 +        Apple mDNSResponder 561.1.1
634 +
635 + 20150306:
636 +        Upgrade OpenSSL to 0.9.8ze
637 +
638 + 20150225:
639 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
640 +
641 +        1. BIND servers which are configured to perform DNSSEC validation and which
642 +        are using managed keys (which occurs implicitly when using
643 +        "dnssec-validation auto;" or "dnssec-lookaside auto;") may exhibit
644 +        unpredictable behavior due to the use of an improperly initialized
645 +        variable.
646 +
647 +        CVE-2015-1349
648 +
649 +        2. An integer overflow in computing the size of IGMPv3 data buffer can result
650 +        in a buffer which is too small for the requested operation.
651 +
652 +        This can result in a DOS attack.
653 +
654 + 20141211:
655 +        Fix a security issue with file and libmagic that can allow
656 +        an attacker to create a denial of service attack on any
657 +        program that uses libmagic.
658 +
659 + 20141109:
660 +        Fix building perl during buildworld when the GDBM port is installed.
661 +
662 + 20141106:
663 +        tzdata 2014i
664 +
665 + 20141102:
666 +        serf 1.3.8
667 +
668 + 20141031:
669 +        tnftp 20141031 fixes a security vulnerability with tnftp,
670 +        CVE-2014-8517.
671 +
672 + 20141028:
673 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8zc
674 +
675 + 20141021:
676 +        Fix several security vulnerabilities in routed, rtsold,
677 +        and namei with respect to Capsicum sandboxes looking up
678 +        nonexistent path names and leaking memory.
679 +
680 +        The input path in routed(8) will accept queries from any source and
681 +        attempt to answer them.  However, the output path assumes that the
682 +        destination address for the response is on a directly connected
683 +        network.
684 +
685 +        Due to a missing length check in the code that handles DNS parameters,
686 +        a malformed router advertisement message can result in a stack buffer
687 +        overflow in rtsold(8).
688 +
689 + 20141011:
690 +        mksh R50d - fix field splitting regression and null
691 +        pointer dereference
692 +
693 +        xz 5.0.7
694 +
695 +        OpenSSH 6.6p1
696 +
697 + 20141004:
698 +        mksh R50c - security update for environment var bug with
699 +        foo vs foo+    
700 +
701 + 20141002:
702 +        sqlite 3.8.6
703 +
704 +        sudo 1.7.8 - some issues with the current version, but we're slowly
705 +        getting up to date.
706 +
707 + 20141001:
708 +        mksh R50b
709 +
710 +        libmport now supports plist commands @dir, @owner, @group, @mode.
711 +
712 +        sudo 1.7.6p2
713 +
714 + 20140916:
715 +        Fix a security issue with TCP SYN.
716 +
717 +        When a segment with the SYN flag for an already existing connection arrives,
718 +        the TCP stack tears down the connection, bypassing a check that the
719 +        sequence number in the segment is in the expected window.
720 +
721 + 20140909:
722 +        Fixed a bug with our clearenv(3) implementation that caused segfaults
723 +        with some programs including Dovecot.
724 +
725 +        OpenSSL security patch:
726 +
727 +        The receipt of a specifically crafted DTLS handshake message may cause OpenSSL
728 +        to consume large amounts of memory. [CVE-2014-3506]
729 +
730 +        The receipt of a specifically crafted DTLS packet could cause OpenSSL to leak
731 +        memory. [CVE-2014-3507]
732 +
733 +        A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
734 +        X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information from
735 +        the stack. [CVE-2014-3508]
736 +
737 +        OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject to
738 +        a denial of service attack. [CVE-2014-3510]
739 +
740 + 20140902:
741 +        We're now 0.6-CURRENT
742 +
743 +        Update USB quirks to support K70 Corsair keyboard, and several
744 +        other devices.
745 +
746 + 20140827:
747 +        Perl 5.18.2
748 +
749 + 20140728:
750 +        Jails now run shutdown scripts.
751 +
752 + 20140710:
753 +        Fix a vulnerability in the control message API. A buffer is not properly cleared
754 +        before sharing with userland.
755 +
756 + 20140701:
757 +        MKSH R50
758 +
759 + 20140630:
760 +        File 5.19
761 +
762 + 20140605:
763 +        Fix four security issues with OpenSSL
764 +
765 + 20140604:
766 +        Sendmail failed to properly set close-on-exec for open file descriptors.
767 +
768 +        ktrace page fault kernel trace entries were set to an incorrect size which resulted
769 +        in a leak of information.
770 +
771 + 20140430:
772 +        Fix a TCP reassembly bug that could result in a DOS attack
773 +        of the system. It may be possible to obtain portions
774 +        of kernel memory as well.
775 +
776 + 20140411:
777 +        Update zlib to 1.2.7
778 +
779 + 20140122:
780 +        Support for username with length 32. Previous limit was 16
781 +
782 + 20140114:
783 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
784 +
785 +        bsnmpd contains a stack overflow when sent certain queries.
786 +
787 +        bind 9.8 when using NSEC3-signed zones zones, will crash with special
788 +        crafted packets.
789 +
790 + 20131228:
791 +        Imported FreeBSD 9.2 usb stack (plus z87 patches from stable)
792 +
793 +        Updated em(4), igb(4) and ixgbe(4)
794 +
795 +        MidnightBSD now works with Z87 Intel chipsets.
796 +
797 + 20131207:
798 +        Remove sparc64 architecture. It hasn't been working for awhile
799 +        and it's not useful for desktops anymore.
800 +
801 + 20131205:
802 +        OpenSSH 6.4p1
803 +
804 + 20131203:
805 +        Perl 5.18.1 imported.
806 +
807 +        Update less to v458
808 +
809 + 20131130:
810 +        Remove named from base. We still include the client utilities for
811 +        now until replacements can be found.
812 +
813 + 20131004:
814 +        rarpd supports vlan(4) and has a pid flag. (from FreeBSD)
815 +
816 + 20130917:
817 +        Support for 65,536 routing tables was added.  A new fib specific
818 +        field has been added to mbuf.  This is an increase from 16.
819 +
820 + 20130910:
821 +        Security updates: (kern.osreldate 5001)
822 +
823 +        nullfs(5)
824 +
825 +        The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not
826 +        check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same
827 +        nullfs instance.  It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a
828 +        location in one nullfs instance to a file in another, as long as the
829 +        underlying (source) filesystem is the same.
830 +
831 +        ifioctl
832 +
833 +        As is commonly the case, the IPv6 and ATM network layer ioctl request
834 +        handlers are written in such a way that an unrecognized request is
835 +        passed on unmodified to the link layer, which will either handle it or
836 +        return an error code.
837 +
838 +        Network interface drivers, however, assume that the SIOCSIFADDR,
839 +        SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been
840 +        handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input
841 +        validation or verify the caller's credentials.  Typical link-layer
842 +        actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up"
843 +        and resetting the underlying hardware.
844 +
845 + 20130824:
846 +        Fix a bug in sendmail 8.14.7 that interferes with how it
847 +        handles AAAA records interoperating with Microsoft DNS servers.
848 +        FreeBSD has already reported this to Sendmail and a fix
849 +        will be included in the next release.
850 +
851 +        Subversion 1.8.1 is now in the base system as a static
852 +        binary.  It has limited functionality, but can be used to
853 +        checkout/commit code.  It is named svnlite.
854 +
855 + 20130822:
856 +        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
857 +
858 +        Fix an integer overflow in IP_MSFILTER (IP MULTICAST).
859 +        This could be exploited to read memory by a user process.
860 +
861 +        When initializing the SCTP state cookie being sent in INIT-ACK chunks,
862 +        a buffer allocated from the kernel stack is not completely initialized.

918 +
919 + 20120612:
920 +        BIND security update related to CVE-2012-1667.
921 +
922 +        Zero length resource records can cause BIND to crash resulting
923 +        in a DOS attack or information disclosure.

946 +        telnetd: fix a root exploit from a fixed buffer that was not checked
947 +
948 +        pam: don't allow escape from policy path.  Exploitable in KDE, etc.
949 +
950 +        Fix pam_ssh module:
951 +
952 +        If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access
953 +        to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys.
954 +
955 +        This has to due with the way that openssl works.  It ignores unencrpted data.
956 +
957 +        Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd.
958 +
959 +        nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some
960 +        operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security
961 +        hole in things like ftpd.
962 +
963 + 20111217:
964 +        libdialog/dialog upgraded to an lgpl version. As it's not
965 +        backwardly compatable, include the old libdialog as libodialog
966 +
967 + 20111212:
968 +        mksh r40d imported
969 +
970 + 20111210:
971 +        re(4) and rl(4) updated to support new chips.
972 +
973 +        GEOM synced with FreeBSD 7-stable.
974 +
975 +        MidnightBSD GPT partition types created in sys/gpt.h and
976 +        setup in boot loader and GEOM.
977 +
978 +        amdsbwd(4) (amd watchdog for south bridge) updated to support
979 +        8xx series chipset.
980 +
981 + 20111207:
982 +        import bsd grep from FreeBSD/OpenBSD.
983 +
984 +        MK_BSD_GREP controls which grep is installed
985 +        as grep with the other as bsdgrep or gnugrep.
986 +
987 + 20111122:
988 +        mksh vR40c imported.
989 +

1008 +
1009 + 20111019:
1010 +        awk 20110810 imported
1011 +
1012 +        et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
1013 +        not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
1014 +        testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
1015 +
1016 +        intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
1017 +        specific CPU core.
1018 +
1019 + 20111017:
1020 +        Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
1021 +
1022 +        Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
1023 +
1024 + 20111015:
1025 +        Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
1026 +        to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
1027 +        process. Several new system calls were added to support this
1028 +        functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
1029 +        compatibility on amd64.
1030 +
1031 +        The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
1032 +        amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
1033 +        for this feature.
1034 +
1035 +        This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
1036 +
1037 + 20111004:
1038 +        Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent
1039 +        patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network
1040 +        apps to work under the linuxolator again.
1041 +
1042 + 20111001:
1043 +        Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is
1044 +        now default and an environment variable must be set to use
1045 +        active.
1046 +
1047 + 20110930:
1048 +        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
1049 +        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
1050 +
1051 +        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
1052 +        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
1053 +        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
1054 +        offloading.
1055 +
1056 +        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
1057 +        working with large raid3 sets.
1058 +
1059 +        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
1060 +
1061 + 20110929:
1062 +        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
1063 +
1064 +        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
1065 +        removed from loader.conf:
1066 +        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
1067 +
1068 +        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
1069 +        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
1070 +        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
1071 +
1072 + 20110928:
1073 +        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
1074 +        files that are corrupted.
1075 +
1076 +        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
1077 +
1078 + 20110917:
1079 +        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
1080 +        it's in the base system.
1081 +
1082 + 20110914:
1083 +        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
1084 +
1085 + 20110813:
1086 +        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
1087 +
1088 + 20110806:
1089 +        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
1090 +
1091 +        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
1092 +        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
1093 +        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
1094 +        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
1095 +        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
1096 +        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
1097 +
1098 +        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
1099 +        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
1100 +
1101 + 20110710:
1102 +        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
1103 +        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
1104 +
1105 +        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
1106 +
1107 + 20110709:
1108 +        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
1109 +        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
1110 +
1111 + 20110612:
1112 +        Update mksh to R40
1113 +
1114 +        Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x.  Good to run when
1115 +        updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old)
1116 +
1117 + 20110528:
1118 +        Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x.  This affects caching resolvers.
1119 +
1120 + 20110526:
1121 +        newfs:
1122 +        Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from
1123 +        16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
1124 +
1125 +        This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format"
1126 +        hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type
1127 +        have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes.  Of course
1128 +        the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk.
1129 +
1130 + 20110521:
1131 +        mport tool now has a deleteall command.  This can be used to remove
1132 +        all packages from a system.
1133 +
1134 +        A few bugs with the perl 5.14 import have been fixed.
1135 +
1136 + 20110518:
1137 +        Perl 5.14.0
1138 +
1139 + 20110517:
1140 +        Sendmail 8.14.5
1141 +
1142 + 20110314:
1143 +        DRM/DRI code updated to support newer video cards. (FreeBSD 7.1)
1144 +
1145 +        cdevpriv wrappers added
1146 +
1147 +        nss_mdns hack introduced to work around linking problem.
1148 +
1149 +        dnsextd fixed after update to mDNSResponder code.
1150 +
1151 + 20110308:
1152 +        Introduce liblzma & xz 5.0.1 to the base system
1153 +
1154 +        Patch for OpenSSL security issue CVE-2011-0014.
1155 +
1156 +        "OSREVISION 4004"
1157 +
1158 +        nsswitch module for multicast dns (nss_mdns) added.
1159 +
1160 +        tzdata2011c
1161 +
1162 + 20110220:
1163 +        cam(4) syncronized with FreeBSD 7.3.
1164 +
1165 + 20110219:
1166 +        amdtemp(4) updated to support sensors framework.
1167 +
1168 + 20110217:
1169 +        Perl 5.10.1 imported
1170 +
1171 + 20110216:
1172 +        Introduce igb(4) and split Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters between
1173 +        igb(4) and em(4).  Newer devices use igb(4).  The code has moved
1174 +        to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has
1175 +        been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64.
1176 +
1177 +        Update bfe(4) to support newer devices and WOL.
1178 +
1179 + 20110215:
1180 +        age(4) added.
1181 +
1182 + 20110208:
1183 +        BIND 9.6.3 which fixes a bug with DNSSEC records getting added.
1184 +
1185 + 20110206:
1186 +        eeemon(4) added to monitor Asus Eee PC.
1187 +
1188 + 20110205:
1189 +        OpenSSH 5.7p1
1190 +
1191 +        GNU sort 6.9 (coreutils)
1192 +
1193 + 20110203:
1194 +        one true awk 20100523 imported
1195 +
1196 +        sqlite 3.7.5
1197 +
1198 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8q
1199 +
1200 + 20110202:
1201 +        tcsh 6.17.00
1202 +
1203 +        file 5.05
1204 +
1205 + 20110122:
1206 +        Import it(4) and lm(4), with support for Super I/O hardware monitors. This
1207 +        uses the sensors framework ported by Constantine A. Murenin (GSOC2007)
1208 +
1209 + 20110120:
1210 +        BIND 9.6.2-P3
1211 +
1212 +        sudo 1.7.4-p6
1213 +
1214 + 20110115:
1215 +        Add experimental jme(4) for Jmicron ethernet devices.
1216 +
1217 + 20101130:
1218 +        A double free exists in the SSL client ECDH handling code, when
1219 +        processing specially crafted public keys with invalid prime
1220 +        numbers. [CVE-2010-2939]
1221 +
1222 + 20101120:
1223 +        Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file
1224 +        systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due
1225 +        to use of int types.  Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified
1226 +        our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts
1227 +        which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB.
1228 +
1229 +        newfs and growfs was also modified.
1230 +
1231   20101110:
1232          Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel
1233          context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration.  This affects file
