Original source

This business release is based on the OPNsense 26.1.11 community version with additional reliability improvements.

Please note that this release offers source NAT as a tentative replacement for outbound NAT. Feature parity is a work in progress for the 26.10 series. For now, please be aware that source NAT continues to work as before, but the GUI will not allow you to edit the source NAT rules unless you choose hybrid or manual mode in the settings. This aligns with how the outbound NAT page is working. Starting with 26.10, the hybrid or manual mode will be required to render source NAT rules into the firewall.

Here are the full patch notes for the initial release:

system

• improve the log_archive script to also work on log subdirectories
• routing: changed “disable” option to “enable”
• add “local_uri” type in SanitizeFilter() and use it to avoid hardcoding

• enhance live log widget (contributed by Greelan)
• support 7680 bit RSA type for certificates and authorities

reporting

• improve parsing in NetFlow for overlapping flow timestamps and use UTC for cleanups
• stop NetFlow service before reloading configuration

interfaces

• properly format API times to ISO format and convert timezone for display in automatic discovery
• fix typos in GIF reconfiguration script

• always show automatic and legacy rules in new rules GUI
• add the same new rules GUI design to the MVC NAT pages
• add CSV download/upload to MVC NAT pages

• source NAT: skip rendering rules when mode is not advanced/manual or hybrid
• improve performance on MVC pages using virtualDOM
• allow WAN as “associated interface” for NPTv6 when prefix ID is set
• fix TypeError on alias getItem() with unknown UUID (contributed by haxorton)
• show rule counts that can be exported and hide tab if no rules exist
• improve interface filter logic to include floating rules with multiple interfaces when they overlap with at least one interface in the interface filter request

Migration notes, known issues and limitations:

• ISC-DHCP moves to a plugin. It will be automatically installed during upgrades. It is not installed on new installations because it is not being used, but you can still install and keep using it.
• To accommodate the change away from ISC-DCHP defaults the “Track interface” IPv6 mode now has a sibling called “Identity Association” which does the same except it is not automatically starting ISC-DHCPv6 and Radvd router advertisements to allow better interoperability with Kea and Dnsmasq setups.
• Dnsmasq is now the default for DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 as well as RA out of the box. One thing that the upstream software cannot cover is prefix delegation so that is no longer offered by default. Use another DHCPv6 server in this case.
• Due to command line execution safety concerns the historic functions mwexec_bg() and mwexec() were removed. Make sure your custom code is not using them and use mwexecf(), mwexecfb() and mwexecfm() instead.
• The function sessionClose() has also been removed from the MVC code and is no longer needed. Make sure to remove it from your custom code.
• The custom.yaml support has been removed from intrusion detection. Please migrate to the newer /usr/local/etc/suricata/conf.d override directory.
• The new host discovery service “hostwatch” is enabled by default. You can always turn it off under Interfaces: Neighbors: Automatic Discovery if you so choose.
• The firewall migration page is not something you need to jump into right away. Please make yourself familiar with the new rules GUI first and check the documentation for incompatibilities. Single interface from the floating interface will not be considered “floating” in priorities.
• Firewall: NAT: Port Forwarding is now called “Destination NAT”. Firewall rule associations are no longer supported, but the old associated firewall rules remain in place with their last known configuration and can now be edited to suit future needs.
• Firewall: NAT: Source NAT is from the set of pages formerly known as automation, but Outbound NAT is still the main page for these types of rules.
• Unbound blocklists are now the same between business and community version. This requires a manual reapply of the blocklists in order to use the new shared format.

Original source

This business release is based on the OPNsense 25.7.8 community version with additional reliability improvements, but without revamped Unbound blocklists for the time being.

Please be aware that during the update check the new package manager will be installed, but will fail to report the update status like it always had before and so you will end up with an error that will require checking for updates again. The fix is in this update, but impossible to install without upgrading the package manager first. We hope this will only be a minor inconvenience during the process.

Also, Python has reported security issues of which a DoS in http.client could potentially affect existing installations given that an HTTP server sends a malicious response which “can consume a large amount of memory and CPU time and cause swapping”. Python has not released an update for version 3.11 at this point in time.

Here are the full patch notes:

• system: use new file_safe() in two instances

• system: switch int/bool to string in gateway properties
• system: ignore TypeErrors when parsing log lines in the backend
• system: replace various raw exec(), system(), passthru() and shell_exec() calls with safer variants
• system: add host route deletion support to system_host_route()
• system: move the general page host route removal to system_host_route()
• system: add CA chain to PKCS12 export

Original source

This business release is based on the OPNsense 25.4.2 business version with additional reliability improvements and adds Dnsmasq DHCP support.

A new US-based business mirror has been added. To accommodate upcoming certificate renewals our behaviour of libfetch CRL checking was slightly changed to omit a missing CRL warning on leaf certificates that certificate vendors do not typically offer in the first place. When certificates are going to be replaced on the business mirrors in October due to pending renewal all versions prior to 25.4.3 will print the spurious warning that no CRL was provided for the leaf certificate but CRL checking will still be carried out as usual and the warning will still be printed when a signing CA certificate does not publicly provide its CRL to check against.

Here are the full patch notes:

• system: increase log file download timeout to prevent exit before data has returned
• system: prevent misconfigurations with the “Automatic user creation” authentication option
• system: prevent the root user from changing its name
• interfaces: capture netmap ring when listening on interfaces in netmap mode
• dnsmasq: add full DHCP/RA support
• firmware: abort on what appear to be partial updates due to obscure file errors
• firmware: add US east coast mirror for business edition
• ipsec: passthrough networks setting missed “allow new” flag
• kea-dhcp: ignore encoding errors in lease parser
• src: libfetch: ignore leaf certificates missing CRL which in practice is not offered by most authorities
• src: libarchive: update to 3.8.1 to fix integer overflow leading to double free
• src: route: fix “route -n monitor” when its output is redirected

A hotfix release was issued as 25.4.3_4:

• system: properly check request type on HA status page in restartAllAction() (reported by Stanislav Fort of Aisle Research)
• firmware: add fingerprint, migration notes and upgrade hint for 25.10
• mvc: stream output not properly cleansed when used in widget (reported by Stanislav Fort of Aisle Research)
• ui: legacy_html_escape_form_data() was not escaping keys only data elements (reported by Alex Williams from Pellera Technologies)
