Turris OS 7.1.4 in RC!

miska · February 27, 2025, 3:08pm

Dear Turris users,

we just released Turris OS 7.1.4 into hbt! Main feature is updated openssh due to some security issues, but we also added new dnssec root key to be ready for a rollover that will happen later this year and we did some minor polishing of some Foris components. Full changelog is as follows:

Updates
• openssh: Update to version 9.9p2 (fixes CVE-2025-26465 and CVE-2025-26466)
• dnssec-rootkey: Add new rootkey to prepare for rollover

New Features
• foris-controller-librespeed: Allow to use fixed server by settings in uci
• foris-controller: disable zeroconf via uci option

Bug Fixes
• reforis-plugin-gsm: actually install it when modem is detected

As always, if you encounter any issues, don’t hesitate to let us know. And regarding the new big release, yes Victor, we are still working on it

Probably some bug in ReForis GUI …

Clear browser cache helps

MOX classic, HBK branch, .5 GB, 2x WiFi, very simple config. All seems OK.

jada4p · February 27, 2025, 4:05pm

I’d like to see whar’s deleted

Comodore125 · February 27, 2025, 4:15pm

I had the same issue too. can confirm this is indeed valid

peci1 · February 27, 2025, 4:16pm

Initially, I typed that it was 130 days from the previous HBT release. But that wasn’t true. My Omnia had 130 days uptime, but that was because a few last releases did not require reboot

Check snapshots date to compare precisely

jada4p · February 27, 2025, 4:21pm

Nice high uptime Anyhow, I’ve somewhere read or been told that it’s adviceable to reboot Linux machines once upon time, say once in month, to claim used system resources…

AreYouLoco · February 27, 2025, 4:26pm

As day-time sysadmin I find that simply bull-shit. If everything is configured properly high uptime is something to be proud of. Unless you consider saving resources when the machine is actually off when not needed.

Even for large scale stuff with HA you would prefer lets say reboots of clustered nodes one at the time to provide continous service without down times. As for beefy home routers its just “no internet” for 1-2 mins that people may live with.

Theoretically yes. But… e.g. Knot Resolver does get some reports of “memory leaks”, sometimes just via fragmentation because of OS malloc not being smart enough, sometimes probably even genuine lost memory.

Also, I don’t see any GUI option for librespeed server.

viktor · February 28, 2025, 11:57am

It´s just minor polishing of some Foris components.

peci1 · March 3, 2025, 7:06pm

I really dislike saying this, but Turris OS development is dead.

This post is not off-topic nor is it meant in a negative way. It expresses the author’s opinion on the development of TOS.

jada4p · March 8, 2025, 5:45pm

This being sed without knowledge of Turris Team internals…

viktor · March 8, 2025, 7:40pm

I totally agree with you!

miska · March 10, 2025, 10:10am

Hi,

we just released another RC, fixing overwrite of LibreSpeed configuration file and in the meantime we discovered another bug that we fixed - namely that reForis GSM plugin wasn’t installed by default when LTE modem was detected.

d0s1s · March 10, 2025, 4:48pm

Turris Omnia 2020 HBT All seems O.K.

I did get the MCU upgrade notification again and again… Please take a look if posible.

Thanks!
