32

33
renamed question files, and also fix memory alignment issue.
35

37
** Support dracut(8) as well as initramfs-tools(7).
38
** Minor bug fix: Allow the mandos-keygen --passfile option to use
39
passfiles with names starting with "-".
40

54
Version 1.8.3 (2019-02-11)
55
* No user-visible changes.
57
Version 1.8.2 (2019-02-10)
59
** In mandos-keygen, ignore failures to remove files in some cases.
61
Version 1.8.1 (2019-02-10)
63
** Only generate TLS keys using GnuTLS' certtool, of sufficient
64
version. Key generation of TLS keys will not happen until a
65
version of GnuTLS is installed with support for raw public keys.
66
** Remove any bad keys created by 1.8.0 and openssl.
68
** On installation, edit clients.conf and remove the same bad key ID
69
which was erroneously reported by all 1.8.0 clients. Also do not
70
trust this key ID in the server.
72
Version 1.8.0 (2019-02-10)
74
** Use new TLS keys for server communication and identification.
75
With GnuTLS 3.6 or later, OpenPGP keys are no longer supported.
76
The client can now use the new "raw public keys" (RFC 7250) API
77
instead, using GnuTLS 3.6.6. Please note: This *requires* new key
78
IDs to be added to server's client.conf file.
79
** New --tls-privkey and --tls-pubkey options to load TLS key files.
80
If GnuTLS is too old, these options do nothing.
82
** Supports either old or new GnuTLS.
83
The server now supports using GnuTLS 3.6.6 and clients connecting
84
with "raw public keys" as identification. The server will read
85
both fingerprints and key IDs from clients.conf file, and will use
86
either one or the other, depending on what is supported by GnuTLS
87
on the system. Please note: both are *not* supported at once; if
88
one type is supported by GnuTLS, all values of the other type from
89
clients.conf are ignored.
91
Version 1.7.20 (2018-08-19)
93
** Fix: Adapt to the Debian cryptsetup package 2.0.3 or later.
94
Important: in that version or later, the plugins "askpass-fifo",
95
"password-prompt", and "plymouth" will no longer be run, since they
96
would conflict with what cryptsetup is doing. Other plugins, such
97
as mandos-client and any user-supplied plugins, will still run.
98
** Better error message if failing to decrypt secret data
99
** Check for (and report) any key import failure from GPGME
100
** Better error message if self-signature verification fails
101
** Set system clock if not set; required by GnuPG for key import
102
** When debugging plugin-runner, it will now show starting plugins
104
