All,
I have built a seventh (and hopefully last) release candidate of SASL
2.1.27 which can be downloaded from here:
HTTP:
https://www.cyrusimap.org/releases/cyrus-sasl-2.1.27-rc7.tar.gz
https://www.cyrusimap.org/releases/cyrus-sasl-2.1.27-rc7.tar.gz.sig
FTP:
ftp://ftp.cyrusimap.org/cyrus-sasl/cyrus-sasl-2.1.27-rc7.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.cyrusimap.org/cyrus-sasl/cyrus-sasl-2.1.27-rc7.tar.gz.sig
The primary reason for this candidate is to test the latest GSSAPI
changes. I'd like to roll out the final release in about a week. If not
done by Feb 14, it will wait until Feb 21 when I return from vacation.
The (mostly) complete list of changes from 2.1.26 are these:
* Added support for OpenSSL 1.1
* Added support for lmdb (from Howard Chu)
* Lots of build fixes (from Ignacio Casal Quinteiro and others)
* Treat SCRAM and DIGEST-MD5 as more secure than PLAIN when selecting
client mech
* DIGEST-MD5 plugin:
o Fixed memory leaks
o Fixed a segfault when looking for non-existent reauth cache
o Prevent client from going from step 3 back to step 2
o Allow cmusaslsecretDIGEST-MD5 property to be disabled
* GSSAPI plugin:
o Added support for retrieving negotiated SSF
o Fixed GSS-SPNEGO to use flags negotiated by GSSAPI for SSF
o Properly compute maxbufsize AFTER security layers have been set
* SCRAM plugin:
o Added support for SCRAM-SHA-256
o Allow SCRAM-* to be used by HTTP
* LOGIN plugin:
o Don’t prompt client for password until requested by server
* NTLM plugin:
o Fixed crash due to uninitialized HMAC context
* saslauthd:
o cache.c:
+ Don’t use cached credentials if timeout has expired
+ Fixed debug logging output
o ipc_doors.c:
+ Fixed potential DoS attack (from Oracle)
o ipc_unix.c:
+ Prevent premature closing of socket
o auth_rimap.c:
+ Added support LOGOUT command
+ Added support for unsolicited CAPABILITY responses in LOGIN
reply
+ Properly detect end of responses (don’t needlessly wait)
+ Properly handle backslash in passwords
o auth_httpform:
+ Fix off-by-one error in string termination
+ Added support for 204 success response
o auth_krb5.c:
+ Added krb5_conv_krb4_instance option
+ Added more verbose error logging
At this point any major changes (e.g. API, wire protocol) will be pushed
out to 2.1.28 or 2.2.0.
