Barrier `2.4.0` ( `2021-11-01` )
|
||||
================================
|
||||
|
||||
Security fixes
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
- Barrier now supports client identity verification (fixes CVE-2021-42072, CVE-2021-42073).
|
||||
|
||||
Previously a malicious client could connect to Barrier server without any authentication and
|
||||
send application-level messages. This made the attack surface of Barrier significantly larger.
|
||||
Additionally, in case the malicious client got possession of a valid screen name by brute forcing
|
||||
or other means it could modify the clipboard contents of the server.
|
||||
|
||||
To support seamless upgrades from older versions of Barrier this is currently disabled by default.
|
||||
The feature can be enabled in the settings dialog. If enabled, older clients of Barrier will be
|
||||
rejected.
|
||||
|
||||
- Barrier now uses SHA256 fingerprints for establishing security of encrypted SSL connections.
|
||||
After upgrading client to new version the existing server fingerprint will need to be approved
|
||||
again. Client and server will show both SHA1 and SHA256 server fingerprints to allow
|
||||
interoperability with older versions of Barrier.
