-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The stable cryptsetup 1.5.1 release is available at http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/ Feedback and bug reports are welcomed. Cryptsetup 1.5.1 Release Notes ============================== Changes since version 1.5.0 * The libcryptsetup library now tries to initialize device-mapper backend and loop devices only if they are really needed (lazy initializations). This allows some operations to be run by a non-root user. (Unfortunately LUKS header keyslot operations still require temporary dm-crypt device and device-mapper subsystem is available only to superuser.) Also clear error messages are provided if running as non-root user and operation requires privileged user. * Veritysetup can be now used by a normal user for creating hash image to file and also it can create hash image if doesn't exist. (Previously it required pre-allocated space.) * Added crypt_keyslot_area() API call which allows external tools to get exact keyslot offsets and analyse content. An example of a tool that searches the keyslot area of a LUKS container for positions where entropy is low and hence there is a high probability of damage is in misc/kesylot_checker. (Thanks to Arno Wagner for the code.) * Optimized seek to keyfile-offset if key offset is large. * Fixed luksHeaderBackup for very old v1.0 unaligned LUKS headers. * Various fixes for problems found by several static analysis tools. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQfcL4AAoJENmwV3vZPpj8NBcQAMlRbn7ijeGlyNIwrfqhqPg1 a/09d8MVJkriZQ3Gk/BUYA4WhBSSOTV5TilKkJS4yAK48bjsZ1o27IObJ+sJR5U+ A9zw+nL+2owqoXfITndYLdJr6/h07PBDksRT6SzQTW9O47853CKZDrQUU3cF1MgW hmJ99pD5ZLCSQsPXPtePpa/mAWC6X3fVoxLysI0F72Ww0l7o/3HAktZy8BjYA/sh ZrIP9kqvai1lfCckzdSkMrtVNFV5glWdH7fh+RDNQHIYOUCwS0rC/iBQsWA3UwZz 6s2CzhKDJ2AWf3wf13uT8iMpMDfNrbaxh2imUYJtpHvn4fqmmu+7j31cPwIjHJ49 pSXek488WjSKcbDOr9WXE7O5JZe7BrwzsT/T1APSOEIq7SqEhprQYztWwTLBAsWL IJP/3wEDw5c5zA3ldpc+9jF6wScfBtumOWffWVHWSnY0J/R6e+BSwxubnnCJRaUI 4ZOE+AYQXzTqB37a5Jzkh1PljzJkHNsPGswsUFNEpCCxGNQULCD/rLbPobcSeSX4 qN78Ld7kxBcEnDAQO3fyssL3pjDHHB1tNiiGKiqtXGXKEgM+qWxob7Esa3fgC1oL JmaC7v9BKalcOfGbfo41x/xwbJyCVgExMyOipnD6OGzeR6AE9GHH77ntZ9HF9Rc0 4FzWzUHVC3uwl1dRAnXH =PwyS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
