1Bitcoin Core version 0.14.2 is now available from: 2 3 <https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.14.2/> 4 5This is a new minor version release, including various bugfixes and 6performance improvements, as well as updated translations. 7 8Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github: 9 10 <https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues> 11 12To receive security and update notifications, please subscribe to: 13 14 <https://bitcoincore.org/en/list/announcements/join/> 15 16Compatibility 17============== 18 19Bitcoin Core is extensively tested on multiple operating systems using 20the Linux kernel, macOS 10.8+, and Windows Vista and later. 21 22Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on [April 8th, 2014](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/WindowsForBusiness/end-of-xp-support), 23No attempt is made to prevent installing or running the software on Windows XP, you 24can still do so at your own risk but be aware that there are known instabilities and issues. 25Please do not report issues about Windows XP to the issue tracker. 26 27Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not 28frequently tested on them. 29 30Notable changes 31=============== 32 33miniupnp CVE-2017-8798 34---------------------------- 35 36Bundled miniupnpc was updated to 2.0.20170509. This fixes an integer signedness error 37(present in MiniUPnPc v1.4.20101221 through v2.0) that allows remote attackers 38(within the LAN) to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified 39other impact. 40 41This only affects users that have explicitly enabled UPnP through the GUI 42setting or through the `-upnp` option, as since the last UPnP vulnerability 43(in Bitcoin Core 0.10.3) it has been disabled by default. 44 45If you use this option, it is recommended to upgrade to this version as soon as 46possible. 47 48Known Bugs 49========== 50 51Since 0.14.0 the approximate transaction fee shown in Bitcoin-Qt when using coin 52control and smart fee estimation does not reflect any change in target from the 53smart fee slider. It will only present an approximate fee calculated using the 54default target. The fee calculated using the correct target is still applied to 55the transaction and shown in the final send confirmation dialog. 56 570.14.2 Change log 58================= 59 60Detailed release notes follow.
