Unreleased
Added
-
SSH
print-cert
has a new-raw
flag to get the PEM representation of a certificate. (#483) -
New build architecture: Linux
riscv64
. (#542) -
New experimental config option
remote_allow_ranges
. (#540)
Deprecated
- The
preferred_ranges
option has been supported as a replacement forlocal_range
since v1.0.0. It has now been documented andlocal_range
has been officially deprecated. (#541)
Fixed
-
Valid recv_error packets were incorrectly marked as "spoofing" and ignored. (#482)
-
SSH server handles single
exec
requests correctly. (#483) -
Signing a certificate with
nebula-cert sign
now verifies that the supplied ca-key matches the ca-crt. (#503) -
If
preferred_ranges
(or the deprecatedlocal_range
) is configured, we will immediately switch to a preferred remote address after the reception of a handshake packet (instead of waiting until 1,000 packets have been sent). (#532)
1.4.0 - 2021-05-11
Added
-
Ability to output qr code images in
print
,ca
, andsign
modes fornebula-cert
. This is useful when configuring mobile clients. (#297) -
Experimental: Nebula can now do work on more than 2 cpu cores in send and receive paths via the new
routines
config option. (#382, #391, #395) -
ICMP ping requests can be responded to when the
tun.disabled
istrue
. This is useful so that you can "ping" a lighthouse running in this mode. (#342) -
Run smoke tests via
make smoke-docker
. (#287) -
More reported stats, udp memory use on linux, build version (when using Prometheus), firewall, handshake, and cached packet stats. (#390, #405, #450, #453)
-
IPv6 support for the underlay network. (#369)
-
End to end testing, run with
make e2e
. (#425, #427, #428)
Changed
-
Darwin will now log stdout/stderr to a file when using
-service
mode. (#303) -
Example systemd unit file now better arranged startup order when using
sshd
and other fixes. (#317, #412, #438) -
Reduced memory utilization/garbage collection. (#320, #323, #340)
-
Reduced CPU utilization. (#329)
-
Build against go 1.16. (#381)
-

-
Better ordered startup to enable
sshd
,stats
, anddns
subsystems to listen on the nebula interface. (#375)
Fixed
-
No longer report handshake packets as
lost
in stats. (#331) -
Error handling in the
cert
package. (#339, #373) -
Orphaned pending hostmap entries are cleaned up. (#344)
-
Most known data races are now resolved. (#396, #400, #424)
-
Refuse to run a lighthouse on an ephemeral port. (#399)
-
Removed the global references. (#423, #426, #446)
-

-
Shutdown is now performed in a cleaner way. (#448)
-

-service
mode in Windows. (#443)
1.3.0 - 2020-09-22
Added
-
You can emit statistics about non-message packets by setting the option
stats.message_metrics
. You can similarly emit detailed statistics about lighthouse packets by setting the optionstats.lighthouse_metrics
. See the example config for more details. (#230) -
We now support freebsd/amd64. This is experimental, please give us feedback. (#103)
-
We now release a binary for
linux/mips-softfloat
which has also been stripped to reduce filesize and hopefully have a better chance on running on small mips devices. (#231) -
You can set
tun.disabled
to true to run a standalone lighthouse without a tun device (and thus, without root). (#269) -
You can set
logging.disable_timestamp
to remove timestamps from log lines, which is useful when output is redirected to a logging system that already adds timestamps. (#288)
Changed
-
Handshakes should now trigger faster, as we try to be proactive with sending them instead of waiting for the next timer tick in most cases. (#246, #265)
-
Previously, we would drop the conntrack table whenever firewall rules were changed during a SIGHUP. Now, we will maintain the table and just validate that an entry still matches with the new rule set. (#233)
-
Debug logs for firewall drops now include the reason. (#220, #239)
-
Logs for handshakes now include the fingerprint of the remote host. (#262)
-
Config item
pki.blacklist
is nowpki.blocklist
. (#272) -
Better support for older Linux kernels. We now only set
SO_REUSEPORT
iftun.routines
is greater than 1 (default is 1). We also only use therecvmmsg
syscall iflisten.batch
is greater than 1 (default is 64). (#275) -
It is possible to run Nebula as a library inside of another process now. Note that this is still experimental and the internal APIs around this might change in minor version releases. (#279)
Deprecated
pki.blacklist
is deprecated in favor ofpki.blocklist
with the same functionality. Existing configs will continue to load for this release to allow for migrations. (#272)
Fixed
-
advmss
is now set correctly for each route table entry whentun.routes
is configured to have some routes with higher MTU. (#245) -
Packets that arrive on the tun device with an unroutable destination IP are now dropped correctly, instead of wasting time making queries to the lighthouses for IP
0.0.0.0
(#267)
1.2.0 - 2020-04-08
Added
-
Add
logging.timestamp_format
config option. The primary purpose of this change is to allow logging timestamps with millisecond precision. (#187) -
Support
unsafe_routes
on Windows. (#184) -
Add
lighthouse.remote_allow_list
to filter which subnets we will use to handshake with other hosts. See the example config for more details. (#217) -
Add
lighthouse.local_allow_list
to filter which local IP addresses and/or interfaces we advertise to the lighthouses. See the example config for more details. (#217) -
Wireshark dissector plugin. Add this file in
dist/wireshark
to your Wireshark plugins folder to see Nebula packet headers decoded. (#216) -
systemd unit for Arch, so it can be built entirely from this repo. (#216)
Changed
-
Added a delay to punching via lighthouse signal to deal with race conditions in some linux conntrack implementations. (#210)
See deprecated, this also adds a new
punchy.delay
option that defaults to1s
. -
Validate all
lighthouse.hosts
andstatic_host_map
VPN IPs are in the subnet defined in our cert. Exit with a fatal error if they are not in our subnet, as this is an invalid configuration (we will not have the proper routes set up to communicate with these hosts). (#170) -
Use absolute paths to system binaries on macOS and Windows. (#191)
-
Add configuration options for
handshakes
. This includes options to tweaktry_interval
,retries
andwait_rotation
. See example config for descriptions. (#179) -
Allow
-config
file to not end in.yaml
oryml
. Useful when using-test
and automated tools like Ansible that create temporary files without suffixes. (#189) -
The config test mode,
-test
, is now more thorough and catches more parsing issues. (#177) -
Various documentation and example fixes. (#196)
-
Improved log messages. (#181, #200)
-
Dependencies updated. (#188)
Deprecated
-
punchy
,punch_back
configuration options have been collapsed under the now top levelpunchy
config directive. (#210)punchy.punch
- This is the oldpunchy
option. Should we perform NAT hole punching (default false)?punchy.respond
- This is the oldpunch_back
option. Should we respond to hole punching by hole punching back (default false)?
Fixed
-
Reduce memory allocations when not using
unsafe_routes
. (#198) -
Ignore packets from self to self. (#192)
-
MTU fixed for
unsafe_routes
. (#209)
1.1.0 - 2020-01-17
Added
- For macOS and Windows, build a special version of the binary that can install
and manage its own service configuration. You can use this with
nebula -service
. If you are building from source, usemake service
to build this feature. - Support for
mips
,mips64
,386
andppc64le
processors on Linux. - You can now configure the DNS listen host and port with
lighthouse.dns.host
andlighthouse.dns.port
. - Subnet and routing support. You can now add a
unsafe_routes
section to your config to allow hosts to act as gateways to other subnets. Read the example config for more details. This is supported on Linux and macOS.
Changed
- Certificates now have more verifications performed, including making sure the certificate lifespan does not exceed the lifespan of the root CA. This could cause issues if you have signed certificates with expirations beyond the expiration of your CA, and you will need to reissue your certificates.
- If lighthouse interval is set to
0
, never update the lighthouse (mobile optimization). - Various documentation and example fixes.
- Improved error messages.
- Dependencies updated.
Fixed
- If you have a firewall rule with
group: ["one-group"]
, this will now be accepted, with a warning to usegroup: "one-group"
instead. - The
listen.host
configuration option was previously ignored (the bind host was always 0.0.0.0). This option will now be honored. - The
ca_sha
andca_name
firewall rule options should now work correctly.
1.0.0 - 2019-11-19
Added
- Initial public release.
