Overview of changes in 2.5.5
============================
User-visible Changes
--------------------
- SWEET32/64bit cipher deprecation change was postponed to 2.7
- Windows: use network address for emulated DHCP server as default
this enables use of a /30 subnet, which is needed when connecting
to OpenVPN Cloud.
- require EC support in windows builds
(this means it's no longer possible to build a Windows OpenVPN binary
with an OpenSSL lib without EC support)
New features
------------
- Windows build: use CFG and Spectre mitigations on MSVC builds
- bring back OpenSSL config loading to Windows builds.
OpenSSL config is loaded from %installdir%\SSL\openssl.cfg
(typically: c:\program files\openvpn\SSL\openssl.cfg) if it exists.
This is important for some hardware tokens which need special
OpenSSL config for correct operation.
Bugfixes
--------
- Windows build: enable EKM
- Windows build: improve various vcpkg related build issues
- Windows build: fix regression related to non-writeable status files
- Windows build: fix regression that broke OpenSSL EC support
- Windows build: fix "product version" display (2.5..4 -> 2.5.4)
- Windows build: fix regression preventing use of PKCS12 files
- improve "make check" to notice if "openvpn --show-cipher" crashes
- improve argv unit tests
- ensure unit tests work with mbedTLS builds without BF-CBC ciphers
- include "--push-remove" in the output of "openvpn --help"
- fix error in iptables syntax in example firewall.sh script
- fix "resolvconf -p" invocation in example "up" script
- fix "common_name" environment for script calls when
"--username-as-common-name" is in effect
Documentation
-------------
- move "push-peer-info" documentation from "server options" to "client"
(where it belongs)
- correct "foreign_option_{n}" typo in manpage
- update IRC information in CONTRIBUTING.rst (libera.chat)
- README.down-root: fix plugin module name
