I am pleased to announce secnet 0.3.2.
0.3.2 contains bugfixes for links involving mobile sites, including an
important security fix for configurations which explicitly set the
site configuration parameter "mobile-peers-max" to 5 or more.
Sites which have no mobile peers and which are already running
0.3.1 have no compelling reason to upgrade.
0.3.2 can be found here:
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ianmdlvl/git/secnet.git/
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~secnet/release/0.3.2/
0.3.2 should be backwards-compatibile with previous versions. For
those on the SGO VPN: chiark is currently running an equivalent
version.
For a summary of the changes see the changelog extract below. For
full details see the git history.
There are no code changes from 0.3.2~beta3 to 0.3.2.
If you are upgrading from pre-0.3 secnet, you should make a change to
your secnet.conf file, as follows:
-transform serpent256-cbc {
- max-sequence-skew 10;
-};
+transform eax-serpent { }, serpent256-cbc { };
The previously-specified transform "serpent256-cbc" has serious
security weaknesses. If you make this change, your new secnet
will automatically negotiate the new "eax-serpent" transform with
suitably capable peers.
secnet (0.3.2) unstable; urgency=low
* Release of 0.3.2. No code changes since 0.3.1~beta1.

secnet (0.3.2~beta1) unstable; urgency=low
For links involving mobile sites:
* SECURITY: Properly update peer address array when it is full.
* Do name-resolution on peer-initiated key setup too, when we are mobile
(and other name-resolution improvements).
Other minor improvements:
* Log peer addresses on key exchange timeout.
* When printing version (eg during startup), use value from git-describe
and thus include git commit id where applicable.
* Updates to release checklist in Makefile.in.
* Use C99 _Bool for bool_t.
