OPNsense 24.1.7 (May 2024 Release), should you upgrade?

By Sam Sheridan - 30th August, 2024

System enhancements: fixed the log file size issue and enabled log rotation via Cron. Static page templating has been improved, and radvd and rtsold logs are now correctly placed in the system log. They've also secured .core files and disabled core dumps by default, adjusted Google Drive backup log levels, and prevented out-of-memory issues during gateway migrations.

Interfaces: added an extra delay for IPv6 renew and clarified gateway selector descriptions.

In IPSec and DHCP,: improved identity parsing and privacy settings.

OpenVPN and WireGuard: fixed property reading issues, enhanced QR code validation, and added MTU settings.

Backend and MVC: enabled multiple sysctl queries, improved field change detection, optimized migration handling, and enhanced grid search and performance.

Several plugins have been updated, including os-acme-client, os-caddy, os-crowdsec, and others. Additionally, we've updated ports such as libpfctl, lighttpd, php, python, and strongswan.

Phalcon framework dependencies have also been removed, speeding up MVC/API components.
