|
- Our own TLS library (libtls) that we use for TLS-based EAP methods and PT-TLS
|
||||||
|
gained experimental support for TLS 1.3. Thanks to Méline Sieber (client) and
|
||||||
|
Pascal Knecht (client and server) for their work on this.
|
||||||
|
Because the use of TLS 1.3 with these EAP methods is not yet standardized (two
|
||||||
|
Internet-Drafts are being worked on), the default maximum version is currently
|
||||||
|
set to TLS 1.2, which is now also the default minimum version.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Other improvements for libtls also affect older TLS versions. For instance, we
|
||||||
|
added support for ECDH with Curve25519/448 (DH groups may also be configured
|
||||||
|
now), for EdDSA keys and certificates and for RSA-PSS signatures. Support for
|
||||||
|
old and weak cipher suites has been removed (e.g. with 3DES and MD5) as well
|
||||||
|
as signature schemes with SHA-1.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The listener_t::ike_update event is now also called for MOBIKE updates. Its
|
||||||
|
signature has changed so we only have to call it once if both addresses/ports
|
||||||
|
have changed (e.g. for an address family switch). The event is now also
|
||||||
|
exposed via vici.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The farp plugin has been ported to macOS and FreeBSD. Thanks to Dan James for
|
||||||
|
working on this.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- To fix DNS server installation with systemd-resolved, charon-nm now creates a
|
||||||
|
dummy TUN device again (was removed with 5.5.1).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The botan plugin can use rng_t implementations provided by other plugins when
|
||||||
|
generating keys etc. if the Botan library supports it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- charon-tkm now supports multiple CAs and is configured via vici/swanctl.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Simple glob patterns (e.g. include conf.d/*.conf) now also work on Windows.
|
||||||
|
Handling of forward slashes in paths on Windows has also been improved.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The abbreviations for the 'surname' and 'serial number' RDNs in ASN.1 DNs have
|
||||||
|
been changed to align with RFC 4519: The abbreviation for 'surname' is now
|
||||||
|
"SN" (was "S" before), which was previously used for 'serial number' that can
|
||||||
|
now be specified as "serialNumber" only.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- An issue with Windows clients requesting previous IPv6 but not IPv4 virtual
|
||||||
|
IP addresses has been fixed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- ike_sa_manager_t: Checking out IKE_SAs by config is now atomic (e.g. when
|
||||||
|
acquires for different children of the same connection arrive concurrently).
|
||||||
|
The checkout_new() method has been renamed to create_new(). A new
|
||||||
|
checkout_new() method allows registering a new IKE_SA with the manager before
|
||||||
|
checking it in, so jobs can be queued without losing them as they can block
|
||||||
|
on checking out the new SA.
