iperf-3.17 2024-05-10
---------------------

* Notable user-visible changes

* BREAKING CHANGE: iperf3's authentication features, when used with
OpenSSL prior to 3.2.0, contain a vulnerability to a side-channel
timing attack. To address this flaw, a change has been made to the
padding applied to encrypted strings. This change is not backwards
compatible with older versions of iperf3 (before 3.17). To restore
the older (vulnerable) behavior, and hence
backwards-compatibility, use the --use-pkcs1-padding flag. The
iperf3 team thanks Hubert Kario from RedHat for reporting this
issue and providing feedback on the fix. (CVE-2024-26306)(PR#1695)

* iperf3 no longer changes its current working directory in --daemon
mode. This results in more predictable behavior with relative
paths, in particular finding key and credential files for
authentication. (PR#1672)

* A new --json-stream option has been added to enable a streaming
output format, consisting of a series of JSON objects (for the
start of the test, each measurement interval, and the end of the
test) separated by newlines (#444, #923, #1098).

* UDP tests now work correctly between different endian hosts
(#1415).

* The --fq-rate parameter now works for --reverse tests (#1632, PR#1667).

* The statistics reporting interval is now available in the --json
start test object (#1663).

* A negative time test duration is now properly flagged as an error
(IS#1662 / PR#1666).

* Notable developer-visible changes

* Fixes have been made to better (unofficially) support builds on
Android (#1641 / #1651) and VxWorks (#1595).

* iperf3 now builds correctly on architectures without native
support for 64-bit atomic types, by linking with the libatomic
library (#1611).
