Mumble is een opensource- en crossplatform-voip-programma. Clients zijn beschikbaar voor Windows, OS X, Linux en iOS. De communicatie vindt altijd over een versleutelde verbinding plaats en kent een lage latency. Wordt het binnen spellen gebruikt, dan kan aan de hand van een overlay worden getoond wie er spreekt en bovendien is het programma in staat om de positie van die ander te herkennen en het geluid zo weer te geven dat je kunt horen waar die speler zich bevindt. Zaterdag is versie 1.29 van Mumble uitgekomen en deze uitgave wordt met de volgende releasenotes geleverd:
Mumble 1.2.9
The Mumble team has released version 1.2.9 of the Mumble VoIP application. Version 1.2.9 is a maintenance release in the stable 1.2-series of Mumble.
This release contains a couple of bug fixes to the Mumble client and contains updates to various Mumble dependencies, most prominently OpenSSL (1.0.1n) and Qt 4.8 (latest from Git). It is also the first release in the 1.2.x series that enables TLS 1.2 and modern TLS cipher suites.
If you are using one our packaged static Murmur servers, or Murmur on Windows, or any of our packaged Mumble client packages we advise you to update to get the latest security fixes from our dependencies.
Changes in this release:
- OpenSSL has been updated to 1.0.1n.
- Qt 4.8 has been synced to the latest sources from Git.
- Mumble and Murmur now use TLS 1.2 if the server/client combination allows it.
- Mumble and Murmur now prefer ECDHE + AES-GCM cipher suites if possible, providing Perfect Forward Secrecy.
- For a source-level changelog, please see https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble/compare/1.2.8…1.2.9
- All of these changes are already available in our snapshot builds (the 1.3.x series), so if you like living on the bleeding edge and want to help out with Mumble development, feel free to check out our development snapshots at http://mumble.info/.
- The TLS 1.2 support in our binary packages is backported from Qt 5. Unfortunately, that means that if you are using Mumble from a package manager, you’re not going to get a TLS 1.2-enabled build.
