2018.76 - 27 February 2018
> > > Configuration/compatibility changes
IMPORTANT
Custom configuration is now specified in localoptions.h rather than options.h
Available options and defaults can be seen in default_options.h
To migrate your configuration, compare your customised options.h against the
upstream options.h from your relevant version. Any customised options should
be put in localoptions.h in the build directory.
- "configure --enable-static" should now be used instead of "make \
STATIC=1"
This will avoid 'hardened build' flags that conflict with static binaries
- Set 'hardened build' flags by default if supported by the compiler.
These can be disabled with configure --disable-harden if needed.
-Wl,-pie
-Wl,-z,now -Wl,-z,relro
-fstack-protector-strong
-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
# spectre v2 mitigation
-mfunction-return=thunk
-mindirect-branch=thunk
Spectre patch from Loganaden Velvindron
- "dropbear -r" option for hostkeys no longer attempts to load the default
hostkey paths as well. If desired these can be specified manually.
Patch from CamVan Nguyen
- group1-sha1 key exchange is disabled in the server by default since
the fixed 1024-bit group may be susceptible to attacks
- twofish ciphers are now disabled in the default configuration
- Default generated ECDSA key size is now 256 (rather than 521)
for better interoperability
- Minimum RSA key length has been increased to 1024 bits
> > > Other features and fixes
- Add runtime -T max_auth_tries option from Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant
- Add 'dbclient -J &fd' to allow dbclient to connect over an existing socket.
See dbclient manpage for a socat example. Patch from Harald Becker

- Restricted group -G option added with patch from stellarpower
