The Libreswan Project has released libreswan-3.21

This is a bugfix and feature release.

New Features:

This release features Opportunistic IPsec using DNSSEC lookups of
IPSECKEY records. It also adds support for the DNSSEC root key rollover
that is currently happening with support for loading new DNSSEC
trust anchors from disk. If using DNSSECi with libreswan, please
upgrade to this version before October 10, 2017.
Support for hardware offloading for certain NIC cards (such as Mellanox)
was added. PFS support was added to the CREATE_CHILD_SA Exchange.

Important bugfixes:

The ID handling code is now more strict when using certificates. Any
ID configured via leftid= or rightid= MUST either be the certificate
DN or be a SubjectAltName (SAN) on the certificate.
A race condition in the threading code was fixed that could cause pluto
to crash on loaded systems that use IKEv1 XAUTH or IKEv2 PAM authentication.
A crasher in FIPS mode when input to hashing algorithms was too weak was fixed.

Compatiblity changes:

The above mentioned stricter ID handling can cause existing connections
to fail if a SubjectAltName is missing from a certificate whose ID is
specified specified in the connection.
