- Moved kadmin and ktutil to /usr/bin
- Stricter fcache checks (see fcache_strict_checking krb5.conf setting)
. use O_NOFOLLOW
. don't follow symlinks
. require cache files to be owned by the user
. require sensible permissions (not group/other readable)
- Implemented gss_store_cred()
- Many more
Bug fixes
- iprop has been revamped to fix a number of race conditions that could
lead to data loss
- Include non-loopback addresses assigned to loopback interfaces
when requesting tickets with addresses
- KDC 1DES session key selection (for AFS rxkad-k5 compatibility)
- Keytab file descriptor and lock leak
- Credential cache corruption bugs
(NOTE: The FILE ccache is still not entirely safe due to the
fundamentally unsafe design of POSIX file locking)
- gss_pseudo_random() interop bug
- Plugins are now preferentially loaded from the run-time install tree
- Reauthentication after password change in init_creds_password
- Memory leak in the client kadmin library
- TGS client requests renewable/forwardable/proxiable when possible
- Locking issues in DB1 and DB3 HDB backends
- Master HDB can remain locked while waiting for network I/O
- Renewal/refresh logic when kinit is provided with a command
- KDC handling of enterprise principals
- Use correct bit for anon-pkinit
- Many more

bta2dpd allows you to stream audio to and from bluetooth devices.
It features high quality stereo audio and is intended for use with pad(4)
device.
As discussed on current-users@ and tech-userlevel@
Things I want to finish for 8:
- as much as possible from the LLDB, Swift, .NET and VirtualBox projects
- more c11 in libc
Things I want to research for 9:
- turn system utilities into C libraries + add bindings for Lua
- rebase Haiku stack on NetBSD + add Kit(s) accessing libsystem utilities
Upstream changelog:
Changes between 1.0.2j and 1.0.2k [26 Jan 2017]
*) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
(CVE-2017-3731)
[Andy Polyakov]
*) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
(CVE-2017-3732)
[Andy Polyakov]
*) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
providing reproducible case.
(CVE-2016-7055)
[Andy Polyakov]
*) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.

signal9:
Verify that masking SIGTRAP in tracee does not stop tracer from
catching PTRACE_LWP_CREATE breakpoint
signal10:
Verify that masking SIGTRAP in tracee does not stop tracer from
catching PTRACE_LWP_EXIT breakpoint
Both tests are broken and linked with PR kern/51918.
