Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2023-fb7fed52b8
2023-07-23 01:27:02.653919
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : tcpcrypt
Product     : Fedora 38
Version     : 0.5
Release     : 12.fc38
URL         : http://tcpcrypt.org/
Summary     : Opportunistically encrypt TCP connections
Description :
Provides a protocol that attempts to encrypt (almost) all of your
network traffic. Unlike other security mechanisms, Tcpcrypt works out
of the box: it requires no configuration, no changes to applications,
and your network connections will continue to work even if the remote
end does not support

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update removes the attempt at firewalld integration for tcpcrypt. It has
never been valid configuration, and so has never worked. Older versions of
firewalld ignored the invalid configuration; more recent ones fail to start when
it is present, so tcpcrypt effectively broke firewalld.  The update also removes
bashisms from the `tcpcryptd-firewall` script, so it will work with other
shells.  Thanks to Robert Fairbrother and others for reporting this, and to Eric
Garver for providing the fixes. Apologies for the lateness of the fix.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Thu Feb 23 2023 Eric Garver <eric@xxxxxxxxxxx> - 0.5-12
- remove bash-isms from tcpcryptd-firewall
* Thu Feb 23 2023 Eric Garver <eric@xxxxxxxxxxx> - 0.5-11
- remove broken firewalld service definition
