| |
| These releases address a security issue that could cause a crash of an |
| iperf3 process (it could theoretically lead to a remote code |
| execution). Although the risk for common use cases is believed to be |
| low, all users are encouraged to update to these versions or newer as |
| soon as possible. More information on the security vulnerability can |
| be found in the following ESnet Software Security Advisory: |
| |
| https://raw.githubusercontent.com/esnet/security/master/cve-2016-4303/esnet-secadv-2016-0001.txt.asc |

| pacing of tests on platforms that support it (currently recent Linux |
| distributions), as well as several other fixes. |

| 2015-10-16: iperf3 Development Status |
| ...................................... |
| |
| Beginning with the release of iperf 3.1, ESnet plans to support iperf3 |
| in "maintenance mode". At this point, we have no definite plans for |
| further iperf3 releases, and ESnet will be providing a very limited |
| amount of resources for support and development, going forward. |
| However, ESnet could issue new iperf3 releases to deal with security |
| issues or high-impact bug fixes. |
| |
| Requests for support, enhancements, and questions should best be |
| directed to the iperf-dev mailing list. ESnet would be open to adding |
| project members/committers from the community, in case there are |
| developers who are interested in doing more active work with iperf3 |
| and/or supporting the user base. |

| |
| This maintenance release fixes an issue for a situation in which |
| attempting a UDP test with pathologically large (and illegal) packet |
| sizes could put the iperf3 server in a state where it would stop |
| accepting connections from clients, thus causing the clients to crash |
| when interrupted. |

| |
| This is the third maintenance release of iperf 3, with few more |
| enhancements and bug fixes. Highlights: |
| |
| * A timing issue which caused measurement intervals to be wrong with |
| TCP tests on lossy networks has been fixed. |
| |
| * It is now possible to get (most of) the server-side output at |
| the client by using the ``--get-server-output`` flag. |
| |
| * A number of bugs with ``--json`` output have been fixed. |
| |
| A more extensive list of changes can always be found in the |
| ``RELEASE_NOTES`` file in the source distribution. |
| |
| Note: An iperf-3.0.4 release was planned and tagged, but not |
| officially released. |
| |
| 2014-06-10: New iperf3 download site |
| ..................................... |
| |
| iperf3 downloads are now hosted on a new server at ESnet: |
| |
| | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/ |
| |
| Going forward, new releases will be made available in this directory. |
| Older releases will, at least for now, continue to also be available |
| at the previous location. |
| |
| 2014-03-26: iperf-3.0.3 released |

| |
| This is the second maintenance release of iperf 3.0, containing a few bug fixes and enhancements, notably: |
| |
| * The structure of the JSON output is more consistent between the |
| cases of one stream and multiple streams. |
| |
| * The example programs once again build correctly. |
| |
| * A possible buffer overflow related to error output has been fixed. |
| (This is not believed to be exploitable.) |
| |
| More information on changes can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES`` |
| file in the source distribution. |
| |
| 2014-03-10: iperf-3.0.2 released |

| |
| **Note:** Due to a mistake in the release process, the distribution tarball referred to above is actually not compressed, despite its ``.tar.gz`` extension. Instead it is an uncompressed tar archive. The file checksum is correct, as are the file contents. |
| |
| This version is a maintenance release that |
| fixes a number of bugs, many reported by users, adds a few minor |
| enhancements, and tracks the migration of the iperf3 project to |
| GitHub. Of particular interest: |
| |
| * Build / runtime fixes for CentOS 5, MacOS 10.9, and FreeBSD. |
| |
| * TCP snd_cwnd output on Linux in the default output format. |
| |
| * libiperf is now built as both a shared and static library; by |
| default, the iperf3 binary links to the shared library. |
| |
| More information on changes can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES`` |
| file in the source distribution. |
| |

| |
| During development, there were various distributions of the source |
| code unofficially released carrying a 3.0.0 version number. Because |
| of the possiblity for confusion, this first public release of iperf3 |
| was numbered 3.0.1. |
