1 Cryptsetup 1.7.5 Release Notes
2 ==============================
4 Changes since version 1.7.4
6 * Fixes to luksFormat to properly support recent kernel running in FIPS mode.
8 Cryptsetup must never use a weak key even if it is just used for testing
9 of algorithm availability. In FIPS mode, weak keys are always rejected.
11 A weak key is for example detected if the XTS encryption mode use
12 the same key for the tweak and the encryption part.
14 * Fixes accesses to unaligned hidden legacy TrueCrypt header.
16 On a native 4k-sector device the old hidden TrueCrypt header is not
17 aligned with the hw sector size (this problem was fixed in later TrueCrypt
18 on-disk format versions).
20 Cryptsetup now properly aligns the read so it does not fail.
22 * Fixes to optional dracut ramdisk scripts for offline re-encryption on initial boot.
