Overview
Request 1138050 accepted
- Changes for 26.2.1:
* erts: Removed unnecessary PCRE source tar-ball.
* ssh: With this change (being response to CVE-2023-48795),
ssh can negotiate "strict KEX" OpenSSH extension with
peers supporting it; also
'chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com' algorithm becomes a
less preferred cipher.
If strict KEX availability cannot be ensured on both
connection sides, affected encryption modes(CHACHA and
CBC) can be disabled with standard ssh configuration.
This will provide protection against vulnerability, but
at a cost of affecting interoperability. See
Configuring algorithms in SSH. (bsc#1218192, CVE-2023-48795)
- Changes for 26.2:
* all: Replaced unintentional Erlang Public License 1.1
headers in some files with the intended Apache License
2.0 header.
* otp: The removal of the deprecated slave module, originally
planned for OTP 27, has been postponed to OTP 29.
* asn1: Fix benign warning from gcc 11 about mismatching call
to free().
* crypto: Enable engine support for OpenSSL versions 3.
* edoc: Emit instead of .
- Disable test suite for now, it has many false positives and
takes a very long time.
