linux-ftpd-ssl (0.17.36+0.3-2) unstable; urgency=low This release implements a substantial improvement in the server's ability to read a certificate chain as its own identity and also the use of a CA certificate collection for verifying the peer. Complete verification of certificates is now possible during conversation, since 'certrequired' is now implemented. Debugging of SSL matters into a file is a very useful new ability. The legacy patch set included a non-standard override of the outcome during (shallow) certificate verification. It is not desirable now, but can be activated by '-z legacy', and should only serve as a means of easier transition. -- Mats Erik Andersson Tue, 24 Jan 2017 14:56:34 +0100 linux-ftpd-ssl (0.17.31+0.3-1) unstable; urgency=low The recent IPv6 capability is handled in distinct ways by the three usual super-servers: openbsd-inetd, xinetd, and inetutils-inetd. The differences are discussed in the file README.Debian. Depending on your old setup, 'update-inetd' might complain about multiple instances of 'ftp' in '/etc/inetd.conf'. The present version tries to counter-act this at future upgrades by inserting '--multi' in the maintainer scripts. -- Mats Erik Andersson Tue, 25 May 2010 20:12:28 +0200 linux-ftpd-ssl (0.17.30+0.3-1) unstable; urgency=low This packaging of linux-ftpd incorporates working support for the IPv6 address family, in stand alone mode, as well as under the control of a super server like xinetd. The records made in wtmp now include the caller's address structure, thus improving the prospects of tracing clients. -- Mats Erik Andersson Sat, 08 May 2010 19:54:28 +0200 linux-ftpd-ssl (0.17.27+0.3-2) unstable; urgency=low * SSL keys/certificates generated since 2006-09-17 with Debian's openssl package are vulnerable due to a predictable random number generator. For more details see: http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1571 http://www.debian.org/security/key-rollover/ http://wiki.debian.org/SSLkeys * To generate new keys using the default ftpd-ssl setup (as root): rm -f /etc/ftpd-ssl/ftpd.pem /etc/ssl/certs/ftpd.pem dpkg-reconfigure ftpd-ssl * If you have set up any SSL infrastructure beyond this, it will also need to be regenerated. -- Ian Beckwith Wed, 21 May 2008 18:48:51 +0100
