  • Restore PerlIO layer cloning on STDERR and STDOUT

Local Packages

• Updated dovecot to 2.2.25:

  • lmtp: Start tracking lmtp_user_concurrency_limit and reject already at RCPT TO stage, which avoids MTA unnecessarily completing DATA only to get an error

  • doveadm: Previously, only mail settings were read from protocol doveadm { .. } section: now, all settings are

  • quota: Added quota_over_flag_lazy_check setting, which avoids checking quota_over_flag always at startup; instead, it's checked only when quota is being read for some other purpose

  • auth: Added a new auth policy service: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/Policy

  • auth: Added PBKDF2 password scheme

  • auth: Added %{auth_user}, %{auth_username} and %{auth_domain}

  • auth: Added ":remove" suffix to extra field names to remove them

  • Added mailbox { autoexpunge_max_mails=<n> } setting

  • Added welcome plugin: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Welcome

  • fts: Added fts_autoindex_exclude setting

  • v2.2.24's MIME parser was assert-crashing on mails having truncated MIME headers

  • auth: With multiple userdbs the final success/failure result wasn't always correct: the last userdb's result was always used

  • doveadm backup was sometimes deleting entire mailboxes unnecessarily

  • doveadm: Command -parameters weren't being sent to doveadm-server

  • If dovecot.index read failed e.g. because mmap() reached VSZ limit, an empty index could have been opened instead, corrupting the mailbox state

  • Added support for download_url endpoint

  • Default domain set by providing 'version' - makes it easy to work with v1

  • Added missing 'download_url' attribute to file/module result objects

• Updated perl-YAML to 1.17 in Rawhide:

  • Use Mo 0.40

Local Packages

Friday 8th July 2016

Fedora Project

• Updated perl-GDGraph to 1.53 in Rawhide:

  • Fix 'Illegal division by zero' when x_min_value and x_max_value are defined and x_tick_number set to 'auto' (CPAN RT#73185, GH#12)

• Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 2.031 in Rawhide:

  • Utils::CERT_create - don't add given extensions again if they were already added; Firefox croaks with sec_error_extension_value_invalid if (specific?) extensions are given twice

  • Assume that Net::SSLeay::P_PKCS12_load_file will return the CA certificates with the reverse order as in the PKCS12 file, because that's what it does

  • Support for creating ECC keys in Utils once supported by Net::SSLeay

  • Remove internal sub session_cache and access cache directly (faster)

• Updated perl-YAML-LibYAML to 0.63 in Rawhide:

  • Fix memory leaks (GH#48)

Local Packages

• Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 2.031 as per the fedora version

• Updated perl-Net-FTPSSL to 0.33:

  • Behaviour change: Since many OpenSSL libraries are tightening their security, I'm adding a new option to preserve backwards compatibility:
    • By default this module now reuses the context of the command channel when opening a data channel

    • If you need to revert back to the previous default of not reusing the context for data channels, you must now use option "DisableContext => 1" to do so; hopefully the need for this option will be rare

    • See the POD for more details
  • Behaviour change: Added support for SNI in the SSL handshake

  • Changed logic on how to detect if a default "SSL_verify_mode" value needed to be set to VERIFY_NONE() for the caller in new()

  • Can now pass SSL options directly to new():

    • You no longer need to use the "SSL_Client_Certificate" option to pass the hash reference of SSL options

    • Currently only recognises IO::Socket::SSL options that start with SSL_

    • If any start with something else, they will be addressed in a future release
  • Clarified some POD information on a few methods

  • Enhanced "size" function to use STAT if SIZE isn't available

  • Fixed case where sometimes the login account used wasn't being masked in the response in the logs
  • Now print the INET version in the log file

  • Reset $ERRSTR in new() in case previous call had errors

  • Fixed t/10-complex.t func run_stat_test() to test the "is_file" and "is_dir()" functions; some tests disable the "SIZE" command so it can test the new alternate size logic as well

  • New test program t/05-simple.t that does a simple read only test against the FTPS server

    • Added so that you can run a simple test against servers you don't want to upload anything to during the tests

    • These tests are not as robust as the t/10-complex.t tests so failures here are not as meaningful; hence, run t/10-complex if you encounter any issues for more analysis

  • Added t/05-simple.t to the MANIFEST

  • Updated the Copyright in the README file, and reworded a few sections

  • Updated all t/*.t files to add a retry the 1st time they try to connect to a server via new(); added a hard coded "SSL_cipher_list" value if the defaults don't work (this kludge might not work for everyone)

  • Modified t/20-certificate.t to be a bit more robust

  • Note: Found a server where supported() doesn't completely work; that server fails to put a "*" after some of the commands it didn't implement

• Updated perl-YAML-LibYAML to 0.63 as per the Fedora version

Saturday 9th July 2016

• Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 2.032 in Rawhide:

  • Set session id context only on the server side; even if the documentation for SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context makes clear that this function is server side only, it actually affects handling of session reuse on the client side too and can result in error "SSL3_GET_SERVER_HELLO:attempt to reuse session in different context" at the client

  • Added OverrideHELP => -1 option to use FEAT instead, when HELP is broken

  • Updated quot() to recognize that MLSD also requires a data channel; also improved the disable HELP logic used here

  • Broke up _feat() into _feat() and feat(), and added feat() to the POD; this was done since under some circumstances the feature list can be dynamic

  • Rewrote _help() to make it less confusing

  • Fixed PreserveTimestamp bug in transfer() and xtransfer()

  • Added new option xWait for use by xput() and xtransfer(); some servers won't honour the rename of the scratch file to its final name without instituting a delay, so this option allows you to specify one

  • README: Added more notes about turning on/off SSL logging; newer versions allow for dynamic turning on/off

  • t/10-complex.t: Changes to the main test script:

    • Now uses fix_supported() in its is_file() tests since these test cases hit some lies told by some servers

    • Fixed so its main logs are named after this test program like the other test cases do

    • Added new test to verify if the MDTM command correctly uses GMT time instead of local time (assumes MFMT will use the same time zone)

    • Added xWait of 1 second to deal with problem FTP/S servers that require a wait for the xput and xtransfer tests to work

  • t/05-readonly.t: Renamed 05-simple to 05-readonly to more accurately describe the types of tests this test script does

• Updated perl-Net-SSLeay (1.74) to fix FTBFS when perl is not in the minimal build root

• Updated perl-Test2 to 1.302049 as per the Fedora perl-Test-Simple package

• Updated perl-Test2-Suite to 0.000054:

  • Make bag check fail when given an empty array
  • Clean up bag diagnostics

• Updated unrar (5.40 beta 4) for new upstream tarball but same version number

Sunday 31st July 2016

Fedora Project

• Updated gtkwave to 3.3.74 in F-25 and Rawhide:

  • Fix for when a signal name is used as a hierarchy name at the same level of scope (affects fsdb)

  • Added --rcvar command line option to insert rc variable changes individually without needing to point to a configuration file

  • Change to combine traces down/up routines to handle 2D vector name generation

  • Allow FSDB files to contain ".gz" and ".bz2" suffixes as the libnffr loader can handle those

  • If a variable is declared in the dumpfile as an integer, then it is imported to the waveform display as an integer instead of a hex value; this works for dump file formats that show the datatype in the SST window
  • Added code that should prevent the primary marker from disappearing unexpectedly as well as dynamic resizing being stuck in the unset marker width

• Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.76 in F-25 and Rawhide:

  • Compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1, tested with openssl-1.1.0-pre5:

    • Conditionally remove threading locking code, not needed in 1.1

    • Rewrite code that accesses inside X509_ATTRIBUTE struct

    • SSL_CTX_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_CTX_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_CTX_set_tmp_rsa_callback, SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback support not available in 1.1

    • SSL_session_reused is now native

    • SSL_get_keyblock_size modifed to use new API

    • OCSP functions modified to use new API under 1.1

    • SSL_set_state removed with 1.1

    • SSL_get_state and SSL_state are now equivalent and available in all versions

    • SSL_CTX_v2_new removed

    • SESSION_set_master_key removed with 1.1; code that previously used SESSION_set_master_key must now set $secret in the session_secret callback set with SSL_set_session_secret_cb

    • With 1.1, $secret in the session_secret callback set with SSL_set_session_secret_cb can be changed to alter the master key (required by EAP-FAST)

  • Added a function EC_KEY_generate_key similar to RSA_generate_key and a function EVP_PKEY_assign_EC_KEY similar to EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA; using these functions it is easy to create and use EC keys in the same way as RSA keys

  • Testing with LibreSSL 2.4.1

  • Provide support for cross context (and cross process) session sharing using the stateless TLS session tickets
  • Added documentation about downloading latest version from SVN
  • Added missing Module/install files to SVN
