[Openvpn-devel] OpenVPN 2.0.8 and 2.1_beta15 released

2006-09-12 Thread James Yonan

2006.09.12 -- Version 2.0.8

* Windows installer updated with OpenSSL 0.9.7k DLLs to fix
 RSA Signature Forgery (CVE-2006-4339).

* No changes to OpenVPN source code between 2.0.7 and 2.0.8.

2006.09.12 -- Version 2.1-beta15

* Windows installer updated with OpenSSL 0.9.7k DLLs to fix
 RSA Signature Forgery (CVE-2006-4339).

* Fixed bug introduced with the --port-share directive
 (back in 2.1-beta9 which causes TLS soft resets
 (1 per hour by default) in TCP server mode to force
 a blockage of tunnel packets and later time-out and
 restart the connection.

* pkcs11 changes:
 1. Modified ssl.c to not FATAL and return to init.c
so auth-retry will work.
 2. Modifed pkcs11-helper.c to fix some problem with
multiple providers.
 3. Updated makefile.w32-vc to include lladdr.*, updated
linkage libraries.
 4. Modified lladdr.c to be compiled under visual C.
 5. Added retry counter to PKCS#11 PIN hook.
 6. Modified PKCS#11 PIN retry loop to return correct error
code when PIN is incorrect.
 7. Fix handling (ignoring) zero sized attributes.
 8. Fix gcc-2 issues.
 9. Fix openssl 0.9.6 (first version) issues.
 10. easy-rsa Makefile (install) is now available so that
 distribs will be able to install it safely.

* Added two new management states:
  OPENVPN_STATE_RESOLVE  -- DNS lookup
  OPENVPN_STATE_TCP_CONNECT  -- Connecting to TCP server

* Echo management state change to log.

* Minor syshead.h change for NetBSD to allow
 TCP_NODELAY flag to work.

* Modified --port-share code to remove the assumption that
 CMSG_SPACE always evaluates to a constant, to enable
 compilation on NetBSD and possibly other BSDs as well.

* Eliminated gcc 3.3.3 warnings on NetBSD
 when ./configure --enable-strict is used.

* Added optional minimum-number-of-bytes parameter
 to --inactive directive.

We are basically there.  Beta15 has a number of changes and fixes that 
need to be tested.  I would like to see it out in the field for 30 to 60 
days before we promote it to final.

thanks.
the reason why i waiting for the final is not because we can't use beta
(actually all of our client and server are use the latest beta), but as
the topology is only in the beta series and other product as openvpn
gui, openvpn for pocket pc etc. are all based on the latest stable or
not follow the beta series. it'd be nice to reach the 2.1 final. in this
case all other upstream packager follow this step. (eg. currently we
can't use pda (pocket pc) to connect to our server which use topology)
or we should have to rebuild the pocket pc port which is not so trivial.

Hello everyone.  I see the new 2.1 beta has a fix for (CVE-2006-4339).  Does
this mean 2.0.7 is not affected by the OpenSSL RSA Signature Forgery
vulnerablility?


Thanks,

Hello everyone.  I see the new 2.1 beta has a fix for (CVE-2006-4339).  Does

vulnerablility?
  


Basically any version of OpenVPN that uses OpenSSL versions prior to 
0.9.7k is potentially vulnerable (including 2.0.7), however using 
"tls-auth" in the OpenVPN configuration reduces the vulnerability to a 
large extent.


Now having said that, if you are using 2.0.7 on unix, you can continue 
to use 2.0.7, just stop the OpenVPN daemon(s), upgrade the OpenSSL 
package on your system, and then restart OpenVPN.


If you are using 2.0.7 on Windows, you can do one of two things:

(1) Upgrade to 2.0.8, which automatically upgrades OpenSSL to 0.9.7k.

(2) Continue using 2.0.7, but drop in new versions of the OpenSSL DLLs 
(libeay32.dll and libssl32.dll) replacing the files in 2.0.7 of the same 
name.  They are usually stored in \Program Files\OpenVPN\bin.  You can 
download these and their related GnuPG signatures here:
