Update the changelog for the packaging, FreeBSD log and Windows directory fixes

|
||||
built. It picked the most recently modified `fips_*.deb` in the output
|
||||
directory that sorted last by name, so a package with a higher version left
|
||||
there by an earlier run was returned instead.
|
||||
- Purging the `.deb`, or running `uninstall.sh` from the tarball, now removes
|
||||
the `.fips` DNS routing when `fips-dns` was not running at the time. The
|
||||
cleanup removed the dns-delegate file from the wrong directory, never removed
|
||||
the systemd-resolved global drop-in, and restarted no resolver, so the host
|
||||
kept sending `.fips` queries to `[::1]:5354`, where nothing listens any more,
|
||||
and `.fips` lookups timed out. Both scripts now remove all four files
|
||||
`fips-dns-setup` can write, and restart systemd-resolved or reload dnsmasq or
|
||||
NetworkManager when they removed that resolver's file and it is running. A
|
||||
failed restart is reported and does not fail the removal.
|
||||
- The `.deb` now recommends `nftables`. `fips-firewall.service` runs
|
||||
`/usr/sbin/nft`, so enabling it on a host without nftables failed at start.
|
||||
It is a recommendation rather than a dependency because the firewall unit is
|
||||
opt-in and the daemon itself does not need `nft`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Packaging (AUR)
|
||||
|
||||
- The release `PKGBUILD` now lists `dbus` as a runtime dependency. The `fips`
|
||||
binary links `libdbus-1`, and the `fips-git` package already declared it.
|
||||
- Both `PKGBUILD` files list `nftables` as an optional dependency, for
|
||||
`fips-firewall.service`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Packaging (FreeBSD)
|
||||
|
||||
- The daemon's log, `/var/log/fips.log`, is now rotated. The package ships a
|
||||
newsyslog entry that keeps five compressed generations of 1000 KB, and the rc
|
||||
script starts `daemon(8)` with `-H` so it reopens the log after a rotation.
|
||||
The log used to grow without bound.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Windows
|
||||
|
||||
- Windows now keeps its config, key, hosts and peer ACL files in
|
||||
`C:\ProgramData\fips`, the directory the service installer writes to. The
|
||||
config search, the key directory and the peer ACL defaults disagreed: the
|
||||
service found none of the installed files after a reboot and ran on
|
||||
defaults, `fipsctl keygen` wrote to the per-user `%APPDATA%\fips`, and a
|
||||
`peers.deny` placed beside the hosts file was never read, so the ACL failed
|
||||
open. A key left in `%APPDATA%\fips` is still used when the new directory
|
||||
has none, with a note to move it. For one release, a `peers.allow` or
|
||||
`peers.deny` left at the old `\etc\fips` location is still read when the
|
||||
new directory has no such file, with a warning naming both paths.
|
||||
- The Windows service now writes its log to `C:\ProgramData\fips\fips.log`,
|
||||
rolled at 10 MiB with four old files kept. A service has no standard output,
|
||||
so everything the daemon logged in service mode was lost, including
|
||||
config-load failures and panic messages. A foreground run still logs to the
|
||||
console.
|
||||
- The Windows service installer now restricts `C:\ProgramData\fips` to
|
||||
SYSTEM and Administrators. The directory inherited `C:\ProgramData`'s
|
||||
default ACL, which lets any local user read the files in it and create new
|
||||
ones, so any local account could read the node's key, or create a missing
|
||||
`fips.key`, `fips.yaml` or `hosts` that the service then used. The installer
|
||||
creates the directory with the restricted ACL, or replaces the ACL of an
|
||||
existing one, resets the files already in it to inherit it, and refuses to
|
||||
continue if the directory or anything in it is a link or a folder, or if the
|
||||
directory is owned by another account. Rerun the installer after moving files
|
||||
into the directory. A foreground run from an unelevated prompt can no longer
|
||||
read the files there.
