0 " lY>*C]m@=p,Tţ m Cryptsetup 2.0.3 Release Notes ============================== Stable bug-fix release with new features. Cryptsetup 2.x version introduces a new on-disk LUKS2 format. The legacy LUKS (referenced as LUKS1) will be fully supported forever as well as a traditional and fully backward compatible format. Please note that authenticated disk encryption, non-cryptographic data integrity protection (dm-integrity), use of Argon2 Password-Based Key Derivation Function and the LUKS2 on-disk format itself are new features and can contain some bugs. To provide all security features of authenticated encryption, we need a better nonce-reuse resistant algorithm in the kernel (see note below). For now, please use authenticated encryption as an experimental feature. Please do not use LUKS2 without properly configured backup or in production systems that need to be compatible with older systems. Changes since version 2.0.2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Expose interface to unbound LUKS2 keyslots. Unbound LUKS2 keyslot allows storing a key material that is independent of master volume key (it is not bound to encrypted data segment). * New API extensions for unbound keyslots (LUKS2 only) crypt_keyslot_get_key_size() and crypt_volume_key_get() These functions allow one to get key and key size for unbound keyslots. * New enum value CRYPT_SLOT_UNBOUND for keyslot status (LUKS2 only). * Add --unbound keyslot option to the cryptsetup luksAddKey command. * Add crypt_get_active_integrity_failures() call to get integrity failure count for dm-integrity devices. * Add crypt_get_pbkdf_default() function to get per-type PBKDF default setting. * Add new flag to crypt_keyslot_add_by_key() to force update device volume key. This call is mainly intended for a wrapped key change. * Allow volume key store in a file with cryptsetup. The --dump-master-key together with --master-key-file allows cryptsetup to store the binary volume key to a file instead of standard output. * Add support detached header for cryptsetup-reencrypt command. * Fix VeraCrypt PIM handling - use proper iterations count formula for PBKDF2-SHA512 and PBKDF2-Whirlpool used in system volumes. * Fix cryptsetup tcryptDump for VeraCrypt PIM (support --veracrypt-pim). * Add --with-default-luks-format configure time option. (Option to override default LUKS format version.) * Fix LUKS version conversion for detached (and trimmed) LUKS headers. * Add luksConvertKey cryptsetup command that converts specific keyslot from one PBKDF to another. * Do not allow conversion to LUKS2 if LUKSMETA (external tool metadata) header is detected. * More cleanup and hardening of LUKS2 keyslot specific validation options. Add more checks for cipher validity before writing metadata on-disk. * Do not allow LUKS1 version downconversion if the header contains tokens. * Add "paes" family ciphers (AES wrapped key scheme for mainframes) to allowed ciphers. Specific wrapped ley configuration logic must be done by 3rd party tool, LUKS2 stores only keyslot material and allow activation of the device. * Add support for --check-at-most-once option (kernel 4.17) to veritysetup. This flag can be dangerous; if you can control underlying device (you can change its content after it was verified) it will no longer prevent reading tampered data and also it does not prevent silent data corruptions that appear after the block was once read. * Fix return code (EPERM instead of EINVAL) and retry count for bad passphrase on non-tty input. * Enable support for FEC decoding in veritysetup to check dm-verity devices with additional Reed-Solomon code in userspace (verify command). Unfinished things & TODO for next releases ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * There will be better documentation and examples (planned for 2.0.4). * There will be some more formal definition of the threat model for integrity protection.
