announced
the release of
version 9.3
of
rpki-client, the essential component for routing security.
See the full announcement for further details.
Key excerpts from the release announcement:
This release includes the following changes to the previous release: - Avoid a quadratic complexity issue in ibuf_realloc() due to misuse of recallocarray(). Transferring a manifest with a large FileAndHash list across a privsep boundary could cost significant resources. - RRDP sessions are periodically reinitialized to snapshot at random intervals. RRDP deltas and snapshots can diverge content-wise over time, leaving stale files in the cache. Reinitialization is triggered at random with increasing probability with increasing snapshot age, at least once every three months. This helps garbage collection. - The internal state file format changed. The first run after an upgrade may produce harmless warning messages about invalid last_reset. - Signed Prefix List statistics are now only emitted when rpki-client is run with -x. This changes the JSON output: without -x some keys are missing from 'metadata'. - The -r command line option formerly enabling RRDP has long been the default and is now removed. - The CRL number extension in CRLs is checked to be in the range [0..2^159-1] and otherwise the CRL is considered invalid, see https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-sidrops-rpki-crl-numbersh
