Tue May 27 14:00:00 2014 meissnerAATTsuse.com
- version 1.6.4
- new tarball / signature location

* Implement new erase (with alias luksErase) command.

* Add internal \"whirlpool_gcryptbug hash\" for accessing flawed
Whirlpool hash in gcrypt (requires gcrypt 1.6.1 or above).

* Allow to use --disable-gcrypt-pbkdf2 during configuration
to force use internal PBKDF2 code.

* Require gcrypt 1.6.1 for imported implementation of PBKDF2
(PBKDF2 in gcrypt 1.6.0 is too slow).

* Add --keep-key to cryptsetup-reencrypt.

* By default verify new passphrase in luksChangeKey and luksAddKey
commands (if input is from terminal).

* Fix memory leak in Nettle crypto backend.

* Support --tries option even for TCRYPT devices in cryptsetup.

* Support --allow-discards option even for TCRYPT devices.
(Note that this could destroy hidden volume and it is not suggested
by original TrueCrypt security model.)

to clock_gettime error (introduced in 1.6.2).

* Fix misleading error message when some algorithms are not available.

* Count system time in PBKDF2 benchmark if kernel returns no self
usage info.

Fri May 27 14:00:00 2011 lnusselAATTsuse.de
- boot.crypto:

* don\'t hard require boot.device-mapper in boot.crypto

Wed May 25 14:00:00 2011 lnusselAATTsuse.de
- new version 1.3.1:

* Simplify device path status check (use /sys and do not scan /dev).

* Do not ignore device size argument for create command (regression in 1.2.0).

* Fix error paths in blockwise code and lseek_write call.

Mon Apr 11 14:00:00 2011 lnusselAATTsuse.de
- new version 1.3.0:

* userspace crypto backends support

* Cryptsetup now automatically allocates loopback device
if device argument is file and not plain device.

- boot.crypto:

* don\'t fail if loop module is not loaded

* adapt to new crypsetup exit codes (bnc#667931)

Mon Dec 20 13:00:00 2010 lnusselAATTsuse.de
- new version 1.2.0

* Add selection of random/urandom number generator for luksFormat
(option --use-random and --use-urandom).

* Fix luksRemoveKey to not ask for remaining keyslot passphrase,
only for removed one.

* No longer support luksDelKey (replaced with luksKillSlot).

* if you want to remove particular passphrase, use luksKeyRemove

* if you want to remove particular keyslot, use luksKillSlot
Note that in batch mode luksKillSlot allows removing of any keyslot
without question, in normal mode requires passphrase or keyfile from
other keyslot.

* Default alignment for device (if not overridden by topology info)
is now (multiple of)
*1MiB
*.
This reflects trends in storage technologies and aligns to the same
defaults for partitions and volume management.

* Allow explicit UUID setting in luksFormat and allow change it later
in luksUUID (--uuid parameter).

* All commands using key file now allows limited read from keyfile using
- -keyfile-size and --new-keyfile-size parameters (in bytes).
This change also disallows overloading of --key-size parameter which
is now exclusively used for key size specification (in bits.)

* luksFormat using pre-generated master key now properly allows
using key file (only passphrase was allowed prior to this update).

* Add --dump-master-key option for luksDump to perform volume (master)
key dump. Note that printed information allows accessing device without
passphrase so it must be stored encrypted.
This operation is useful for simple Key Escrow function (volume key and
encryption parameters printed on paper on safe place).
This operation requires passphrase or key file.

* The reload command is no longer supported.
(Use dmsetup reload instead if needed. There is no real use for this
function except explicit data corruption:-)

* Cryptsetup now properly checks if underlying device is in use and
disallows
*luksFormat
*, luksOpen and create commands on open
(e.g. already mapped or mounted) device.

* Option --non-exclusive (already deprecated) is removed.
Libcryptsetup API additions:

* new functions

* crypt_get_type() - explicit query to crypt device context type

* crypt_resize() - new resize command using context

* crypt_keyslot_max() - helper to get number of supported keyslots

* crypt_get_active_device() - get active device info

* crypt_set/get_rng_type() - random/urandom RNG setting

* crypt_set_uuid() - explicit UUID change of existing device

* crypt_get_device_name() - get underlying device name

* Fix optional password callback handling.

* Allow to activate by internally cached volume key immediately after
crypt_format() without active slot (for temporary devices with
on-disk metadata)

* libcryptsetup is binary compatible with 1.1.x release and still
supports legacy API calls

* cryptsetup binary now uses only new API calls.

* Static compilation of both library (--enable-static) and cryptsetup
binary (--enable-static-cryptsetup) is now properly implemented by common
libtool logic.
Prior to this it produced miscompiled dynamic cryptsetup binary with
statically linked libcryptsetup.
The static binary is compiled as src/cryptsetup.static in parallel
with dynamic build if requested.

Tue Nov 30 13:00:00 2010 lnusselAATTsuse.de

* API calls to handle NULL device name as
documented. (To enable check of passphrase/keyfile using
libcryptsetup without activating the device.)

* Fix udev support for old libdevmapper with not compatible definition.

* Added Polish translation file.

Thu Jul 1 14:00:00 2010 lnusselAATTsuse.de

* Fix isLuks to initialise crypto backend (blkid instead is suggested anyway).

* Properly initialise crypto backend in header backup/restore commands.

* Do not verify unlocking passphrase in luksAddKey command.

* Allow no hash specification in plain device constructor - user can provide volume key directly.

* Try to use pkgconfig for device mapper library in configuration script.

* Add some compatibility checks and disable LUKS suspend/resume if not supported.

* Rearrange tests, \"make check\" now run all available test for package.

* Avoid class C++ keyword in library header.

Tue Mar 9 13:00:00 2010 lnusselAATTsuse.de

* seed random number generator (bnc#575139)

Mon Jan 18 13:00:00 2010 lnusselAATTsuse.de
- cryptsetup 1.1.0:

* IMPORTANT: the default compiled-in cipher parameters changed
plain mode: aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 (default is backward incompatible!).
LUKS mode: aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 (only key size increased)
In both modes is now default key size 256bits.

* Default compiled-in parameters are now configurable through configure options:
- -with-plain-
* / --with-luks1-
* (see configure --help)

* If you need backward compatible defaults for distribution use
configure --with-plain-mode=cbc-plain --with-luks1-keybits=128
Default compiled-in modes are printed in \"cryptsetup --help\" output.

* Change in iterations count (LUKS):
The slot and key digest iteration minimum count is now 1000.
The key digest iteration count is calculated from iteration time (approx 1/8 of req. time).
For more info about above items see discussion here: http://tinyurl.com/yaug97y

* New libcryptsetup API (documented in libcryptsetup.h).
The old API (using crypt_options struct) is still available but will remain
frozen and not used for new functions.
Soname of library changed to libcryptsetup.so.1.0.0.
(But only recompilation should be needed for old programs.)
The new API provides much more flexible operation over LUKS device for
applications, it is preferred that new applications will use libcryptsetup
and not wrapper around cryptsetup binary.

* New luksHeaderBackup and luksHeaderRestore commands.
These commands allows binary backup of LUKS header.
Please read man page about possible security issues with backup files.

* New luksSuspend (freeze device and wipe key) and luksResume (with provided passphrase).
luksSuspend wipe encryption key in kernel memory and set device to suspend
(blocking all IO) state. This option can be used for situations when you need
temporary wipe encryption key (like suspend to RAM etc.)
Please read man page for more information.

* New --master-key-file option for luksFormat and luksAddKey.
User can now specify pre-generated master key in file, which allows regenerating
LUKS header or add key with only master key knowledge.

* Uses libgcrypt and enables all gcrypt hash algorithms for LUKS through -h luksFormat option.
Please note that using different hash for LUKS header make device incompatible with
old cryptsetup releases.

* Introduces --debug parameter.
Use when reporting bugs (just run cryptsetup with --debug and attach output
to issue report.) Sensitive data are never printed to this log.

* Moves command successful messages to verbose level.

* Requires device-mapper library and libgcrypt to build.

* Uses dm-uuid for all crypt devices, contains device type and name now.

* Removes support for dangerous non-exclusive option
(it is ignored now, LUKS device must be always opened exclusive)
- boot.crypto:

* don\'t use dirty prompt override hack anymore

* wait for volume groups if resume volume is on lvm (bnc#556895)
