Log Message:
Update stunnel to 5.00.
Of utmost importance: it fixes CVE 2014-0016.
Thanks to jgw (Jeff W) _AT_ sdf.org for working on the same patch
independently.
In before the freeze! Changelog follows.
Security bugfixes
Added PRNG state update in fork threading (CVE-2014-0016).
New global configuration file defaults
Default "fips" option value is now "no", as FIPS \
mode is only helpful for compliance, and never for actual security.
Default "pid" is now "", i.e. not to create a pid \
file at startup.
New service-level configuration file defaults
Default "ciphers" updated to \
"HIGH:MEDIUM:+3DES:+DH:!aNULL:!SSLv2" due to AlFBPPS attack and bad \
performance of DH ciphersuites.
Default "libwrap" setting is now "no" to improve \
performance.
New features
OpenSSL DLLs updated to version 1.0.1f.
zlib DLL updated to version 1.2.8.
autoconf scripts upgraded to version 2.69.
TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 are now allowed in the FIPS mode.
New service-level option "redirect" to redirect SSL client \
connections on authentication failures instead of rejecting them.
New global "engineDefault" configuration file option to \
control which OpenSSL tasks are delegated to the current engine. Available \
tasks: ALL, RSA, DSA, ECDH, ECDSA, DH, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS, PKEY, \
PKEY_CRYPTO, PKEY_ASN1.
New service-level configuration file option "engineId" to \
select the engine by identifier, e.g. "engineId = capi".
New global configuration file option "log" to control whether \
to append (the default), or to overwrite log file while (re)opening.
Different taskbar icon colors to indicate the service state.
New global configuration file options "iconIdle", \
"iconActive", and "iconError" to select status icon on GUI \
taskbar.
Removed the limit of 63 stunnel.conf sections on Win32 platform.
Installation of a sample certificate was moved to a separate \
"cert" target in order to allow unattended (e.g. scripted) \
installations.
Reduced length of the logged thread identifier. It is still based on the \
OS thread ID, and thus not unique over long periods of time.
Improved readability of error messages printed when stunnel refuses to \
start due to a critical error.
Bugfixes
LD_PRELOAD Solaris compatibility bug fixed (thx to Norm Jacobs).
CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS replaced with CRYPTO_num_locks() to improve binary \
compatibility with diverse builds of OpenSSL (thx to Norm Jacobs).
Corrected round-robin failover behavior under heavy load.
Numerous fixes in the engine support code.
On Win32 platform .rnd file moved from c:\ to the stunnel folder.
