Het pakket OPNsense is een firewall met uitgebreide mogelijkheden. Het is gebaseerd op het besturingssysteem FreeBSD en is oorspronkelijk een fork van m0n0wall en pfSense. Het pakket kan volledig via een webinterface worden ingesteld en heeft onder andere ondersteuning voor mfa, OpenVPN, IPsec, CARP en captive portal. Daarnaast kan het packetfiltering toepassen en beschikt het over een traffic shaper. De ontwikkelaars achter OPNsense hebben de negende update voor versie 25.7 uitgebracht en de releasenotes voor die uitgave kunnen hieronder worden gevonden.
OPNsense 25.7.9 releasedA bug snuck into the last release that did not properly disable the caching of DNS entries when using multiple blocklists with different network restrictions. We have used the opportunity to polish the notification code and apply behaviour during the migration of the old blocklist to the new format. The saga around safe command execution continues in this release as well. Otherwise it is a rather quiet release and 2025 is almost over.
