Erlang OTP 22.3 is released
Erlang/OTP 22.3 is the last planned patch package for the 22 major release with new features, improvements and bugfixes. Below follows some highlights.
Highlights #
- ssl/public_key: * Implementation of the key and initialization vector update feature, and general hardening of TLS 1.3. There are cryptographic limits on the amount of plaintext which can be safely encrypted under a given set of keys. This change enforces those limits by triggering automatic key updates on TLS 1.3 connections.
- Add support for TLS 1.3 Session Tickets (stateful and stateless). This allows session resumption using keying material from a previous successful handshake.
- Add support for key exchange with Edward curves and PSS-RSA padding in signature verification.
- erts: * A socket “registry” has been added making it possible to list current open sockets.
- Add a “full featured” version of getifaddrs in the net module.
- ssh: * The new functions ssh:set_sock_opts/2 and ssh:get_sock_opts/2 sets and reads option values for the underlying TCP stream.
- Changes to the internal api of the experimental
ssh_dbg
tool. - common_test: The ct_property_test has now a report function for results of stateful testing.
- stdlib: * Implement uri_string:resolve/{2,3} that can be used to resolve a URI reference against a base URI.
- In gen_statem it is now possible to change the callback
module for a running server. See gen_statem’s
documentation for
change_callback_module
,push_callback_module
, andpop_callback_module
.
