Hi,
here is a quick roundup of new features for GnuGk 3.8.
There seems to be a lot to H.323 spam / hacking to go around. We are
responding with a number of improvements to security related features:
- endpoint IDs are now completely random and not as easily guessable
as they were before
- GnuGk is now using better random numbers in security relevant places
- new authentication modules using LUA scripts called LuaAuth
- new switch [RasSrv::ARQFeatures] CheckSenderIP=1 to make sure ARQs
come from the same IP as the initial registration
- FileIPAuth is now able to check ARQ messages
- AliasAuth updated to work with H.460.18 endpoint
- PrefixAuth was extended to support unregistered calls
- SQLAuth can now operate on SrcInfo fields using %{SrcInfo}
Other new non-security related features include:
- The CatchAll policy now rewrites the destination alias which makes it
easier to send CatchAll calls to MCU rooms.
- A new switch [Gatekeeper::Main] MinH323Version= lets you set the H.323
version GnuGk identifies itself as using (up to the latest version 7).
This is mainly to deal with endpoint that switch features when they
believe they are talking to older endpoints (which one shouldn't be
doing...)
- bugfix to [EP::] AddNumbers=
All these features are available in the CVS now and will be release
with GnuGk 3.8. Please test them if you have a chance and let me know
if you find any issues.
Regards,
Jan
