Hi all,

Quite the list of changes after a few weeks of a turbulent summer. This update addresses Stack Clash, OpenVPN, Bind and cURL security issues, see the reference links below.

17.7 is almost here, which means we have skipped over Alpha and Beta phase due to the fact that the base system is staying on FreeBSD 11.0. What you can expect is a Release Candidate within a week and a smooth transition.

Here are the full patch notes:

o firewall: keep category selection when changing tabs
o firewall: do not skip gateway switch parsing too early (contributed by Stephane Lesimple)
o interfaces: show VLAN description during edit

o firmware: opnsense-patch can now handle permission changes from patches
o dnsmasq: use canned –bogus-priv for no_private_reverse
