Software Update: Kerio WinRoute Firewall 6.2.2

Kerio Technologies released version 6.2.2 of its WinRoute Firewall a few days ago. Unlike the Personal Edition, this program is not intended for end users, but for companies. The home version is no longer published by Kerio, but is now owned by Sunbelt. Kerio WinRoute Firewall is through ICSA Labs certified and includes stateful and protocol inspection, built-in SSL-secured VPN, content filtering and VoIP and UPnP support. The following changes have been made in this release:

Added features:

• added TCP MSS altering to work around nonworking PMTU discovery due to blocked ICMP
  (this typically fixes nonworking HTTPS pages on PPPoE connections)

Improved/changed features:

• Administration Console now remembers last view in IP Address Groups, DHCP Scopes and Leases, HTTP URL Groups, Time Ranges screens
• cache memory size configuration value has been removed (the best value is now auto-detected)
• the timeout for half-open TCP connections has been decreased

• fixed deadlock in UPnP service if an interface goes up or down
• in SSL-VPN downloaded files are now forced to be saved to disk instead of opened in IE
• fixed creating of huge antivirus temporary files even though size limit was configured

• fixed a potential bug that antivirus process(es) won’t start during WinRoute initialization
• fixed national characters handling in the administrative password dialog in the installation wizard
• fixed loading of web pages on nonstandard TCP ports when going through multiple proxies
• fixed nonworking CNN pipeline stream videos
• fixed possibility to remove some interface statistics for some interfaces
• fixed IP addresses for hostnames in the traffic policy not being updated often enough
• fixed old half-closed FTP connections through the firewall sometimes remaining open for very long times
• antivirus scanning failures are now logged into security log
• fixed client FTP connections not being correctly reset if virus was found during the transfer.
• fixed FTP inspector could parse certain (illegal) responses incorrectly causing the affected connection to hang
• fixed bandwidth limiter behaving incorrectly if the IP address group selected there was deleted
• fixed inability to send mail through certain rare servers if TLS transfers are denied by WinRoute
• fixed possible file corruption during antivirus scanning on chunked HTTP connections
• fixed nonworking quarantine storage of infected files found in FTP transfers
• fixed changes to the default SSL web interface TCP port of 4081 not being applied until restart of WinRoute
• user manually imported from AD now have their email addresses imported (affects only newly imported users)
