|
+Bugfixes
|
|
|
+~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Make status page work with disabled cookies/local storage
|
|
|
+ (`#912 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/912>`_)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Update kernel to 3.18.44
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Fixes CVE-2016-5195 and CVE-2016-7117. It is unlikely that these issues pose
|
|
|
+ a threat to usual Gluon setups, but installing additional packages may make a
|
|
|
+ system vulnerable. In any case, updating is highly recommended.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Downgrade mac80211 to an earlier state
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Unfortunately, a mac80211 update that was done shortly before the release of
|
|
|
+ Gluon v2016.2 (that seemed necessary to properly support ath10k devices) had
|
|
|
+ again caused severe ath9k stability issues that remained unreported until v2016.2
|
|
|
+ was out.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ We have now reverted mac80211 to an earlier state that was reported to be very
|
|
|
+ stable (while keeping the ath10k-specific changes); in addition, some patches
|
|
|
+ that were reported to cause connection or performance issues with certain clients
|
|
|
+ have been reverted. While is it still not perfectly stable, is should be at least
|
|
|
+ as good as (and probably better than) the v2016.1.x release series.

|
|
+Known Issues
|
|
|
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (`#496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promicious mode is disallowed).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Inconsistent respondd API (`#522 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/522>`_)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Git HTTPS downloads from git.kernel.org fail on Debian Wheezy (`#919 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/919>`_)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The GnuTLS version on Debian Wheezy is too old and can't establish a connection with
|
|
|
+ git.kernel.org anymore. A newer GnuTLS version is available in wheezy-backports, but
|
|
|
+ as there is no libcurl3-gnutls package linked against the new version, installing the
|
|
|
+ new version has no effect.
