OPNsense 19.1.3 released –

Hi all,

This is a smaller stable update consisting of LDAPS authentication server improvements, Unbound host overrides alias support, OpenSSL 1.0.2r security update and the recent PAM rework for better privilege separation.

We are currently focusing on IPsec VTI, third-party service PAM integration and investigating kernel boot crashes. In the latter case we are aware of the update issues some people are having and recommend running 18.7 until this is taken care of. Above all, please be patient. New images and seamless upgrade paths will be provided as soon as the problems have been pinned down.

Here are the full patch notes:
