SSL vulnerabilities in Amiga software
Harry 'Piru' Sintonen reveals security issues on Amiga SSL implementations. Critical vulnerabilities are found in IBrowse, SimpleMail and other programs.

Summary of the text file found at the title link:
  • IBrowse 2.4 is vulnerable to Man in the Middle attacks (sslsniff)
  • SimpleMail 0.40 is vulnerable to Man in the Middle attacks (sslsniff)
  • AWeb and IBrowse 2.4 support insecure SSL 2.0 and weak ciphers, enabling trivial attacks against the encrypted traffic
  • SimpleMail allows weak ciphers, enabling trivial attacks against the encrypted traffic.
  • AmiSSL is based on old version of OpenSSL, and several security vulnerabilities have been found since
  • YAM 2.9 has secure SSL implementation (barring the deficiencies in AmiSSL itself)

Workbench enhancement: BetterWB 3.3
Similar to AIAB, AmiKit or AmigaSYS, BetterWB is a collection of Workbench enhancements for AmigaOS 3.1, which are useful but rather simple and therefore require low hardware configuration. It is meant for e.g. purists and users of low end Amigas or Minimig users.

BetterWB runs on any Amiga and is provided as disk images. It requires the original disks of Workbench 3.1 (may also work under 3.0, but was not tested) and 8 MB harddrive memory.

DigiBooster 3: Open Source Portable DigiBooster 3 Replayer released
Press release: After succesfull introduction of DigiBooster 3, APC&TCP releases an open source DigiBooster 3 replayer routine organized as a static library. The code is being released on permissive, two-clause BSD license. The player is written in clean C with minimal dependencies. As such it has been succesfully compiled and tested on numerous platforms: AmigaOS 4 and Morphos, Linux (on x86, x86_64 and aarch64), Windows (XP, Win7, 32 and 64 bit) and MacOS X (x86_64). It also supports the most popular compilers:

GCC, Clang and Visual C++. The package contains source code of two example tools: 'dbminfo' displays information about a module, 'dbm2wav' renders a module into 44.1 kHz 16-bit stereo WAVE file. Of course libraryAPI documentation is provided as well.

Based on this code we plan to release in the near future more ready to use components, like shared libraries for AmigaOS and MorphOS and a few plugins for popular audio players. Release of this code ends difficulties of playing DigiBooster 2/3 modules on non-Amiga(like) systems. The library package is available for downloads on the official DigiBooster 3 webpage. Any questions related to the package may be asked on the official DigiBooster support forum. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AROS: Survey on interest on AEROS for Sam4x0- and AmigaOne-X1000-boards
Under the title link Pascal Papara has announced to adapt his Linux-hosted AROS-distribution AEROS to the PowerPC-Boards Sam440ep (Flex) and Sam460ex developed by ACube Systems and AmigaOne X1000 developed by A-EON Technology working under AmigaOS 4, if at least 50 users register interest. - In this context he mentioned that by comparision for his Raspberry-Pi-version he has 300 registered users.

An advantage of AEROS - additional the access to Linux - compared to the native version of AROS developed by Jason McMullan for the Sam460ex, is that it can use the ABI-V1 back ports of Krzysztof 'deadwood' Śmiechowicz which among others make it possible to use Directory Opus 5.

X500 case: Boingball and Butterfly keys (Update)
For his retro case X500 (amiga-news.de reported) Loriano 'TheDaddy' Pagni now also offers keyboards. The keys are printed in colour with over 300 dpi and have a Boingball or the MorphOS butterfly Morpho menelaus (picture).

Update: (20:30, 05.02.14, snx)
According to a current comment, the keys are for a new version of the case (called X500 Evo instead of X500 Plus), but should - according to Pagni - also fit to other mechanical keyboards like Ducky Zero, Filco or Das Keyboard. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: Audio-Player AmigaAMP 3.13
Thomas Wenzel has updated his music play programm AmigaAMP. In version 3.13 several minor bugs were fixed:
  • Fixed some more playlist/directory handling bugs
  • Fixed cover drawing and uniconifying of tag editor window
  • Added pattern matching filter to modplug loader
  • "Autoplay file" now also works for dragging files on the playlist window
  • Dragging directories on AmigaAMP's AmiDock icon now works
  • Switched play list handling to saving and loading WinAMP style .pls files
  • Revised window depth arrangement and alignment code
  • Updated WinAMP5 skin
  • Use mouse wheel in equalizer window to move sliders
  • Fixed clearing of comment field when opening MP3 file without comment
  • Fixed format display in main ReAction window
  • Fixed initial playlist display in ReAction window
  • Renamed info win to just "Info" because it can't edit tags any more
Important: This new version doesn't load plain text files as playlists any more when using the normal Eject/Open/Drag'n'drop functions. I've you've built your own playlists and want to continue using them then load them via Load List in the playlist window and save them again. They will be automatically converted.

This is to prevent the following bug: If under AmigaAMP 3.12 and earlier a complete directory with all files in it was opened, and a text file is there as well, by mistake it is loaded as playlist. This causes much trouble. In the latest version this cannot happen any longer. (cg) (Translation: dr)
