Local Packages

    • Make generated code avoid warnings about the "items" variable being unused

    • Avoid some unused-variable warnings generated by XS code in the test suite

    • Update documentation to avoid newGVgen

Saturday 8th January 2022

Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 2.074 in Rawhide:

    • Add SSL_ciphersuites option for TLS 1.3 ciphers

    • No longer use own default for ciphers: instead, use system default but disable some weak ciphers that might still be enabled on older systems (note that the Fedora package still includes a patch to default to exactly the PROFILE=SYSTEM cipher list without any changes)

  • Updated perl-MRO-Compat to 0.15 in Rawhide:

    • Optimize pure perl DFS inheritance calculation on perl 5.8
    • Fix function prototypes to match core functions
    • Pod formatting fix

  • Updated perl-PerlIO-utf8_strict to 0.009 in Rawhide:

    • Mark functions that croak as noreturn

  • Updated perl-Test-Differences to 0.69 in Rawhide:

    • Special-case Unknown::Values objects in comparisons, as it's better to spit out a diagnostic failure than to just die

    • Correct misleading Unicode doco

  • Updated python-paramiko to 2.9.2 in Rawhide:

    • Connecting to servers that support 'server-sig-algs' but which have no overlap between that list and what a Paramiko client supports, now raise an exception instead of defaulting to 'rsa-sha2-512' (since the use of 'server-sig-algs' allows us to know what the server supports)

    • Enhanced log output when connecting to servers that do not support 'server-sig-algs' extensions, making the new-as-of-2.9 defaulting to SHA2 pubkey algorithms more obvious when it kicks in

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 2.074 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-MRO-Compat to 0.15 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-PerlIO-utf8_strict to 0.009 as per the Fedora version

Thursday 13th January 2022

Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.92 in Rawhide:

    • Net::SSLeay now supports stable releases of OpenSSL 3.0

      • OpenSSL 3.0.0 introduces the concept of "providers", which contain cryptographic algorithm implementations; many outdated, deprecated and/or insecure algorithms have been moved to the "legacy" provider, which may need to be loaded explicitly in order to use them with Net::SSLeay (see "Low level API: OSSL_LIB_CTX and OSSL_PROVIDER related functions" in the Net::SSLeay module documentation for details)

      • Net::SSLeay's built-in PEM_get_string_PrivateKey() function depends on algorithms that have moved to the legacy provider described above; if OpenSSL has been compiled without the legacy provider, the tests t/local/33_x509_create_cert.t and t/local/63_ec_key_generate_key.t will fail when the test suite is run

      • TLS 1.1 and below may only be used at security level 0 as of OpenSSL 3.0.0; if a minimum required security level is imposed (e.g. in an OpenSSL configuration file managed by the operating system), the tests t/local/44_sess.t and t/local/45_exporter.t will fail when the test suite is run

    • Net::SSLeay now supports stable releases of LibreSSL from the 3.2-3.4 series (with the exception of 3.2.2 and 3.2.3 - see "COMPATIBILITY" in the Net::SSLeay module documentation for details)

      • The TLS 1.3 implementation in LibreSSL 3.1-3.3, parts of which are enabled by default, is not fully compatible with the libssl API and may not function as expected with Net::SSLeay; see "KNOWN BUGS AND CAVEATS" in the Net::SSLeay module documentation for details

    • A number of new libcrypto/libssl constants and functions are now exposed, including SSL_CTX_set_keylog_callback() and SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(), which are helpful when debugging TLS handshakes; see the release notes for the 1.91 developer releases (in the Changes file) for a full list of newly-exposed constants and functions

  • Branched and built perl-Log-Dispatch-FileRotate (1.38) for EPEL-9

Fedora Project
