- Update skip-BE-tests.patch so that it actually fixes things,
instead of just skipping tests (gh#kbandla/dpkt#615).
- Update to 1.9.7.2:
- Fixed performance regression (#611)
- Moved the project documentation from Read the Docs(RST) to
github.io(MarkDown)
- Added a new mechanism for creating bit-sized field
definitions in the protocol parsers (Packet.__bit_fields__)
- Added pretty printing capability aka Packet.pprint(),
Packet.__pprint_funcs__
- Added documentation on developing protocol parsers in dpkt
(creating_parsers.md)
- Added a universal pcap+pcapng reader
(dpkt.pcap.UniversalReader)
- Improved TLS ClientHello and ServerHello parsing: return an
"Unknown" ciphersuite instead of raising an exception, add
codes for rfc8701, GREASE ciphersutes
- Added function to get IP protocol name
- Modified Packet.__getitem__() and added Packet.__contains__()
to address the nested protocol layers
- Fixed payload length interpretation in AH decoder
- Improved handling of invalid chunks in HTTP and SCTP
- Fixed decoding of IPv6 fragments after the 1st fragment
- Support rfc3540 nonce sum flag in TCP
- Added in the TLS 1.3 Cipher Suite from the RFC 8446 dated
August 2018
- Added support for Linux cooked capture v2, SLL2.
- New example showing how to process truncated DNS packets
(examples/print_dns_truncated.py).
- Corrected typo in BGP.notification attribute.
- BGP.Update.Attribute.MPReachNLRI.SNPA now inherits from
dpkt.Packet.
- Byteorder is now specified when packing GRE optional fields.
- #517: Improvement to Radiotap class, supporting multi-byte
and misaligned flags fields. Endianness is now enforced.
- Github issue template added for bug reporting.
- Compliance with flake8 formatting.
- asn1.py::utctime method now returns time in UTC, instead of
local.
- Allow multiple InterfaceDescriptionBlocks with pcapng.Writer.
- SCTP decoder DATA chunk padding aligned to 4-bytes, and
improved handling of .data field.
- IEEE80211 DELBA frame now works on big and little-endian
architectures.
- Introduce compat.ntole which converts from network byte order
to little-endian byte order, regardless of host endianness.
- Ethernet class now attempts to unpack the padding and trailer
if present.
- Added anonymous property to cipher suites, which returns True
if the cipher suite starts with 'anon'.
- Added pfs (Perfect Forward Secrecy) and aead (Authenticated
Encryption with Additional Data) properties to cipher suites.
- Added old CHACHA20-POLY1305 related cipher suites to TLS
CipherSuite list.
- Remove redundant num_compression_methods from TLSClientHello
- Testing improved from 90% coverage to over 99%.
- Remove upstreamed patch fix_s390x_tests.patch
- Add patch skip-BE-tests.patch skipping failing tests again
(gh#kbandla/dpkt#505).
