Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: stunnel 5.06-1 [SECURITY]
Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2014 20:51:48 -0400
Message-Id: <announce.a4e34a93cv52ob4ldfjlopcaqslarqnntm@4ax.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0

A new version of stunnel, 5.06-1, is available in the Cygwin distribution.
This is a new upstream release.

This is a security update of stunnel, mainly AFAICT because it now disables
SSLv2 and SSLv3 by default.  Please read the annnouncement at
http://www.stunnel.org/sdf_ChangeLog.html.  Note though that in Cygwin
stunnel doesn't provide a default config file, only a sample
(/etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf-sample) that you can take and adapt for your
use.  So in other words, it's still up to you to disable SSLv2 and SSLv3 in
your services.  If you haven't done that yet, you should, right away.

stunnel has also been rebuilt against OpenSSL 1.0.1j, which now includes
support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV. That and disabling SSLv2 and SSLv3 together
address the recently announced POODLE vulnerability in SSL.

stunnel is a program that allows you to encrypt arbitrary TCP connections
inside TLS (Transport Layer Security, formerly known as Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL)).  stunnel can allow you to secure non-TLS-aware daemons and
protocols (like POP, IMAP, LDAP, etc) by having stunnel provide the
encryption, requiring no changes to the daemon's code.
