-----------------------------

Revision 4.22 (2019-01-09) major packaging update, new features, enhancements and bug fixes


    Selected compatibility notes, enhancements and fixes

New Radiator packages: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and Centos 7, Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04, and Windows MSI

Major updates to Yubikey Validation server support

SCTP multihoming support for Diameter and other stream modules


      Known caveats and other notes

TLSv1.3 is not enabled by default for TLS based EAP methods.

TLSv1.3 is not enabled by default for Stream based classes, such as RadSec.


      Detailed changes

Fixed a bug in radiusd where @main::reinitFns and @main::perchildinitFns are initialised after radiusd has loaded modules which already altered @main::reinitFns and/or @main::perchildinitFns. This bug was triggered when radiusd was restarted with a SIGHUP.

Fixed a bug in ServerTACACSPLUS where Client clause parameters, such as RewriteUsername, were ignored. This was broken in Radiator 4.21.

Corrected SQL syntax in hotp.cfg and totp.cfg goodies sample files. Reported by Denis Pavani.

Fixed EAP-FAST to work with OpenSSL 1.1.0 with clients that do not have a valid PAC and need to use unauthenticated provisioning. This requires SSL_set_security_level support which is not available in Net::SSLeay 1.85 and before.

Monitor and ServerHTTP now honour UseTLS. TLS_Protocols is still the preferred method to enable TLS.

EAPAnonymous %0 can now access inner EAP identity with EAP-FAST.

TLS based EAP methods do not enable TLSv1.3 by default. This can be changed with EAPTLS_Protocols configuration parameter.

Significant updates to radiator.service and [email protected] Systemd unit files in goodies. Radiator modules are looked up from a new default location /opt/radiator/radiator. Binding to TACACS+ and other privileged ports is enabled with CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE. Runtime directory is created as /run/radiator/. Other updates for environment variables and startup control.

radpwtst was updated to use its invocation location and /opt/radiator/radiator to search for its modules and dictionary. Modules nor dictionary are no longer looked up from the current working directory.

radiusd was updated to use its invocation location to search for its modules. Modules are no longer looked up from the current working directory.

An info level message is now logged when license related configuration parameters are set with a fully licensed Radiator. This is a reminder that these parameters are ignored and can be safely removed from the configuration. New configuration parameter LicenseFile is now the recommended method to include license configuration parameters.

Removed a number of obsolete files from goodies

ClientListLDAP now supports PostSearchHook.

Added AuthBy HOTSPOT for operating wired and wireless hotspots with authentication and billing. Added support for handling service and subscription databases with implementations in ServiceDatabase INTERNAL and ServiceDatabase SQL. Added modules for handling services, subscriptions and sessions that are manged by SessionDatabase and ServiceDatabase modules. Enhanced SessionDatabase modules to support the new functionality. See README.hotspot and hotspot.cfg in goodies for more information and a configuration sample.

Added AuthBy HOTSPOTFIDELIO that extends AuthBy HOTSPOT with Opera/Fidelio specific functionality. See README.hotspot-fidelio and hotspot-fidelio.cfg in goodies for more information and a configuration sample. This module also supersedes AuthBy FIDELIOHOTSPOT which will continue to work but should not be used in new deployments.

Added indexing to fidelio-hotspot.sql.

AuthBy FIDELIO, AuthBy FIDELIOHOTSPOT and AuthBy HOTSPOTFIDELIO UserPasswordHook is now passed $p as an additional argument.

HandlerFindHook is now available for fast Handler lookup. This is advantageous for configurations, such as proxying based on realm, where maximum packet throughput is required. Configuration sample is in goodies/handler-find-hook.pl

Added Base32 decoder to hextobase32.pl in goodies and updated it to match API changes in recent MIME::Base32 modules.

AuthBy YUBIKEYVALIDATIONSERVER now supports Validation Protocol 2.0 and 1.0. Tested with YubiCloud and PyHSM hsm-val servers. Previously supported PyHSM yhsm-val short format OTP protocol was updated to include OATH-TOTP protocol. Updated configuration sample with new parameters is in yubikey-validationserver.cfg goodies file.

Windows service enhancements: service parameters no longer include command line options relevant only to installing Radiator as a service. This simplifies parameters when installing service and running as service. Service install and uninstall failures now log more details and cause radiusd to exit with failure. Fixed whitespace quoting in service parameters.

Added Win32-Lsa module for 64bit Strawberry Perl 5.28.

Updated the framework for packing and unpacking complex RADIUS vendor specific attributes (VSA framework) to pass current request to custom pack functions. Request is now passed to both pack and unpack functions.

Corrected hooks.txt in goodies to use packed address with Client's findAddress function.

radiusd now accepts command line parameter -prepend_env that prepends its value to an environment variable during radiusd start. The variable is created if it does not exist.

Stream based modules, such as ServerDIAMETER, now use sctp_bindx() for all BindAddress values and sctp_connectx() for SCTPPeer values. These require Radiator Radius::SCTP bindings to make libsctp API available for Perl.

Fixed a crash triggered by logging of Handler values, such as Identifier, before Handler was chosen.

AuthBy LSA can now rewrite the username that is passed to LSA. Example use is Wi-Fi roaming where roaming username can not be directly used with Windows authentication because of local naming conflicts with roaming requirements. See LSARewriteHook in goodies/lsa.cfg and Radiator reference manual. Updated other AuthBy LSA configuration samples.

Improvements to AuthBy SAFEWORD. New parameters SSLVersion and SSLCipherList allow configuring SSL/TLS protocol versions and cipher suites when communicating with the server.

Improvements to AcctLog and AuthLog clauses. New optional parameter MaxMessageLength specifies a maximum message length (in characters) for each message to be logged, If specified, each log message is truncated to the specified number of characters prior to logging.

Improvements to AcctLog, AuthLog and Log clauses. When LogSock is set to unix or stream or pipe, new optional parameter LogPath specifies the syslog path. Defaults to _PATH_LOG macro (if your system defines it).

ServerTACACSPLUS authorisation context lookup enhancement: new optional configuration parameter ContextId specifies how to derive a lookup key for TACACS+ authentication context when authorising TACACS+ requests.

Stream and StreamServer certificate verification enhancements: new optional parameter TLS_CertificateVerifyHook specifies a perl function that will be called for a custom verification of the client certificate. TLS_CertificateVerifyFailedHook is a new optional parameter that specifies a perl function that will be called if verifying the client certificate fails. These are similar to their EAPTLS counterparts and their return values determine how certificate verification continues. See radsec-server.cfg in goodies and Radiator reference manual for more information.

Added VENDOR Ciena 1271 VSAs to dictionary.

Added Juniper Junos OS TACACS+ configuration sample in tacacsplusserver.cfg goodies file.

AuthBy RADSEC now reconnects more reliably to disconnected peers instead of leaving peers to permanently failed state. This could happen when ConnectOnDemand is set and when UseStatusServerForFailureDetect is set with Radiator 4.20 and 4.21. Reported by Paul Dekkers.

AuthBy RADSEC now delays creating sockets when Farmsize is set and ConnectOnDemand is not set. This avoids closing sockets after forking farm members which caused confusing stream related peer disconnect log messages. Reported by Paul Dekkers.

AuthBy DNSROAM could connect to the same destination twice. This was fixed in Radiator 4.20 but not mentioned in changes.

A number of code clean up and maintenance changes were done based on Perl::Critic and other tools.

DictionaryReloadInterval is a new optional parameter that sets an interval in seconds for checking whether the files defined by DictionaryFile have changed. If there are changes, all files are reloaded. Not enabled by default and the files are only loaded during server initialisation.
