I2P is now a proposed site on Stack Exchange! Please commit to using it so the beta phase can begin.

Update details

0.0.26 bevat een belangrijke opwaardering van onze eigen versleutelingsbibliotheek, een nieuw lidmaatschapsprotocol met ondertekening voor het adresboek en belangrijke verbeteringen voor de Debian/Ubuntu-distributies.

For crypto, we have upgraded to GMP 6.0.0, and added support for newer processors, which will speed up crypto operations considerably. Also, we are now using constant-time GMP functions to prevent side-channel attacks. For caution, the GMP changes are enabled for new installs and Debian/Ubuntu builds only; we will include them for in-net updates in the 0.9.27 release.

Voor Debian/Ubuntu-distributies zijn de afhankelijkheden toegevoegd bij diverse pakketten, waaronder Jetty 8 en geoip. De gebundelde software is hierdoor vervangen.

There's a collection of bug fixes also, including a fix for a timer bug that caused instability and performance degradations over time.

Zoals gewoonlijk raden we aan om bij te werken naar deze uitgave. De beste manier om veiligheid te onderhouden en het netwerk te helpen is om de laatste uitgave te gebruiken.
