Certbot 0.28.0 Release

Certbot 0.28.0 has just been released.

The big change in this release is that support for the TLS-SNI-01 challenge has been deprecated which you can read more about at Upcoming TLS-SNI Deprecation in Certbot.

The full changelog for the release is:

0.28.0 - 2018-11-7

Added

  • revoke accepts --cert-name, and doesn’t accept both --cert-name and --cert-path.
  • Use the ACMEv2 newNonce endpoint when a new nonce is needed, and newNonce is available in the directory.

Changed

  • Removed documentation mentions of #letsencrypt IRC on Freenode.
  • Write README to the base of (config-dir)/live directory
  • --manual will explicitly warn users that earlier challenges should remain in place when setting up subsequent challenges.
  • Warn when using deprecated acme.challenges.TLSSNI01
  • Log warning about TLS-SNI deprecation in Certbot
  • Stop preferring TLS-SNI in the Apache, Nginx, and standalone plugins
  • OVH DNS plugin now relies on Lexicon>=2.7.14 to support HTTP proxies
  • Default time the Linode plugin waits for DNS changes to propogate is now 1200 seconds.

Fixed

  • Match Nginx parser update in allowing variable names to start with ${.
  • Fix ranking of vhosts in Nginx so that all port-matching vhosts come first
  • Correct OVH integration tests on machines without internet access.
  • Stop caching the results of ipv6_info in http01.py
  • Test fix for Route53 plugin to prevent boto3 making outgoing connections.
  • The grammar used by Augeas parser in Apache plugin was updated to fix various parsing errors.
  • The CloudXNS, DNSimple, DNS Made Easy, Gehirn, Linode, LuaDNS, NS1, OVH, and
    Sakura Cloud DNS plugins are now compatible with Lexicon 3.0+.
