Log
Core Update 170
- Only issue left is CUPS won't encrypt connections - #12924
- The former update has been two months ago, so it is about time
- Update scheduled for this week
- Peter's VoIP issues are gone - presumable it was a suricata bug
Core Update 171
- Adolf has updated Perl
- Updated toolchain from Michael
- libarchive has security issues (again)
- The update is very small so far (~30 MiB)
- u-boot: Arne is testing with the next RC which is scheduled to be released in October
- The aim is to release this update fast
- Adolf is going to update Python soon
- Peter asked Michael to update Go and is looking for someone to update Lua
- Michael is contributing QMI support
OpenVPN 2FA
- Adolf couldn't get it to work with neither NetworkManager or OpenVPN for Android
- We should support "client-pending-auth", but it requires >= 2.5
GitHub
- Michael deleted most repositories because people ignore that we don't want any PRs
- PRs can't be disabled
- We don't think that we are gaining much visibility from this, but will keep the remaining repositories for the time being
Suricata 6
- Flow Manager CPU load has been fixed (#12548):

- We should upgrade to this as soon as possible, if it can be confirmed that those patches work with 6.0.6
