rpki-client 9.2 has just been released and will be available in the
rpki-client directory of any OpenBSD mirror soon. It is recommended
that all users upgrade to this version for improved reliability.
rpki-client is a FREE, easy-to-use implementation of the Resource
Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) for Relying Parties to facilitate
validation of BGP announcements. The program queries the global RPKI
repository system and validates untrusted network inputs. The program
outputs validated ROA payloads, BGPsec Router keys, and ASPA payloads
in configuration formats suitable for OpenBGPD and BIRD, and supports
emitting CSV and JSON for consumption by other routing stacks.
See RFC 6480 and RFC 6811 for a description of how RPKI and BGP Prefix
Origin Validation help secure the global Internet routing system.
rpki-client was primarily developed by Kristaps Dzonsons, Claudio
Jeker, Job Snijders, Theo Buehler, Theo de Raadt and Sebastian Benoit
as part of the OpenBSD Project.
This release includes the following changes to the previous release:
- Ensure synchronization jobs are stopped when the timeout is reached.
- Fix a corner case in repository handling. If the last RRDP repository
failed to load, rpki-client would fail to fall back to rsync due to an
ordering bug in the event loop.
- Improve detection of duplicate file paths. Only trigger a duplicate
error if a valid path is revisited otherwise a bad CA could prevent
legitimate files from being considered valid.
- Normalize internal representation of the caRepository to have a
trailing slash and ensure that the rpkiManifest is a file inside it.
rpki-client works on all operating systems with a libcrypto library
based on OpenSSL 1.1 or LibreSSL 3.6, a libtls library compatible with
LibreSSL 3.6 or later, expat and zlib.
rpki-client is known to compile and run on at least the following
operating systems: Alpine, CentOS, Debian, Fedora, FreeBSD, Red Hat,
Rocky, Ubuntu, macOS, and of course OpenBSD!
It is our hope that packagers take interest and help adapt
rpki-client-portable to more distributions.
