constraints against IKEv2 authentication in rightauth, which allows the use
of different signature schemes for trustchain verification and authentication.
- The initiator of an IKEv2 make-before-break reauthentication now suspends
online certificate revocation checks (OCSP, CRLs) until the new IKE_SA and all
CHILD_SAs are established. This is required if the checks are done over the
CHILD_SA established with the new IKE_SA. This is not possible until the
initiator installs this SA and that only happens after the authentication is
completed successfully. So we suspend the checks during the reauthentication
and do them afterwards, if they fail the IKE_SA is closed. This change has no
effect on the behavior during the authentication of the initial IKE_SA.
- For the vici plugin a Vici:Session Perl CPAN module has been added to allow
Perl applications to control and/or monitor the IKE daemon using the VICI
interface, similar to the existing Python egg or Ruby gem.
