February 27, 2020
New Version

Features

  • New component: Rebex TLS - Rebex TLS is a low-level TLS client library. It supports TLS 1.3, TLS 1.2 and earlier versions on all mainstream platforms including .NET Framework 3.5 on Windows 7 (or on Windows XP SP3 with a plugin). SHA-2, SNI, AES/GCM, Chacha20/Poly1305 and other modern TLS features are supported as well.
  • .NET Standard 2.0 on Xamarin.Android and Xamarin.iOS - Rebex binaries targeting .NET Standard 2.0 are now supported on Xamarin.Android and Xamarin.iOS. Previously-available binaries targeting specific Xamarin platforms have been deprecated, and .NET Standard 2.0 binaries should be used instead.
  • ChaCha20-Poly1305 support in TLS 1.3 and 1.2 - The TLS 1.3/1.2 core now supports the following ChaCha20-Poly1305 cipher suites:
    • TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 (TLS 1.3)
    • TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 (TLS 1.2)
    • TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 (TLS 1.2)
    • TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 (TLS 1.2)
  • Native X25519 elliptic curve support on Windows 10 - On Windows 10, Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019, Rebex components using ECDH key exchange in TLS or SSH now support X25519 curve (also known as Curve25519) without any external plugins.
  • Better Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman support on Windows 10 - On Windows 10, Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019, Rebex components now fully supports ECDH key exchange without having to rely on external plugins and workarounds.
  • Support for server-side file hash calculation - Support for the check-file SFTP extension has been added to Rebex File Server, making it possible for SFTP clients (such as Rebex SFTP) to retrieve hashes of remote files.
  • End of Standard Support for .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0 - 2019 R4.2 was the last release to include support for .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0 in the standard package. Customers using these platforms are advised to migrate to .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.
  • Deprecated .NET Core 1.0/1.1 - .NET Core 1.1 and 1.0 became end-of-life platforms on 2019-06-27. In accordance with framework support policy, they are no longer supported by Rebex components. Customers using these platforms are advised to migrate to .NET Core 2.1 or .NET Core 3.1.
