Changelog
All notable changes to RAVEN are recorded here.
v0.3.2 (2026-06-16)
Fixed
- Demo lab: all
docker execcalls indemo-master.shnow usesudo(silent injection failures occurred when run without root) - Demo lab:
setup()now injectsLEAK-PREFIXprefix-list into running FRR containers viavtyshpost-deploy; Containerlab mountsfrr.confbut FRR does not reload on redeploy, causing the leak scenario to fail on cold start - Demo lab: Routinator 0.15.1 changed CLI syntax;
--configflag must now be passed as a global flag before the subcommand (routinator -c ~/.routinator.conf server) not after it - Grafana: BGP Peers panel filtered to IPv4-only peers and panel height increased (IPv6 peer additions doubled tile count, causing overflow)
v0.3.1 (2026-06-08)
Added
- IPv6 route monitoring via BMP (
MP_REACH_NLRI/MP_UNREACH_NLRIparsing) - IPv6 ROV validation
- IPv6 origin hijack scenario in demo lab (
./demo-master.sh hijack6) - TLS support for BMP listener and RTR client; skip TCP buffer tuning
(
SetReadBuffer/SetWriteBuffer) for TLS connections (WSL2 compatibility)
Fixed
- Demo lab:
lacnicscenario 4 route leak used inlineLEAK-INJECTroute-map with wrong prepend ASN (AS64496 → ROV:Invalid); replaced with permanentROUTE-LEAKroute-map (prepend AS1199 → ROV:Valid, ASPA:Invalid, posture:path-suspect as intended) - Demo lab:
leakandhijack6vtysh commands converted to heredoc syntax (docker exec ... bash -c "vtysh << 'VTYSH' ... VTYSH") to fix silent failures caused by leading spaces in-carguments - Demo lab: leak scenario prefix corrected to
193.0.0.0/21(AS3333 / RIPE NCC); SLURM ASPA assertion added for AS3333 with provider AS1103 (excluding AS65000 to trigger path-suspect)
Changed
- Demo lab internet router ASN changed from AS2121 to AS64496 to avoid
spurious
path-suspectat baseline caused by real-world RPKI/ASPA records for AS2121
v0.3.0 (2026-05-26)
Added
- Event Engine: configurable triggers on posture changes (ROV state change, new route with specific posture, RTR cache failure) with webhook HTTP POST and file log actions
- Flowspec lifecycle management: detect origin-invalid route → generate Flowspec rule → inject via GoBGP → monitor → expire after configurable TTL. Dry-run mode and approval webhook supported.
raven audit— full security posture report for a router: per-peer posture breakdown, ROV/ASPA coverage, recommendations. Outputs table, JSON, or markdown.raven check stealthy— detect stealthy BGP hijacks by comparing BMP control-plane view against data-plane forwarding via probes- Warm-start persistence: snapshot route table and RPKI caches to disk on shutdown, restore on startup
- OpenTelemetry OTLP metrics export alongside Prometheus
- RTR-over-TLS: configure
transport: tlsand optional CA cert under any RTR cache entry - BMP listener TLS: optional TLS termination on the BMP listener with mutual TLS support
- Event Engine ASN triggers:
asnandprotected_asntrigger types (contributed by Orange/AS3215)
Fixed
- RTR
rtr-versionconfig field now correctly wired through to the client (was previously ignored) - TCP socket buffer tuning skipped for TLS connections (prevented TLS sessions from establishing on some platforms)
v0.2.0 (2026-05-18)
Added
- ASPA path verification per draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-verification-24
- Combined security posture matrix: Secured / Origin-Only / Path-Suspect / Path-Only / Unverified / Origin-Invalid
- ASPA store populated via RTR v2 ASPA PDUs; re-validation on ASPA store updates via dirty-set propagation
raven aspa— show ASPA records for an ASNraven aspa recommend— suggest ASPA objects based on observed pathsraven what-if— simulate impact of reject-invalid or ASPA enforcementraven watch— stream live validation state changes- Prometheus posture metrics reflect full ROV × ASPA matrix
v0.1.0 (2026-04-15)
Initial public release — Phase 1 (Foundation) complete.
BMP Ingest
- Embedded BMP receiver (RFC 7854) on configurable TCP port (default: 11019)
- Parses BGP UPDATE messages from BMP Route Monitoring PDUs
- Supports Adj-RIB-In Pre-Policy, Post-Policy, and Loc-RIB
- Per-session lifecycle management (Initiation, Peer Up/Down, Termination)
RPKI / RTR Client
- RTR v1 (RFC 8210) and RTR v2 (draft-ietf-sidrops-8210bis) client
- VRP store for Route Origin Validation
- Multi-cache support with preference ordering and automatic failover
- Re-validation on RPKI cache updates via dirty-set propagation
Validation Engine
- Route Origin Validation (ROV) per RFC 6811: Valid / Invalid / NotFound
CLI
raven serve— start daemonraven status— BMP peer and RTR cache healthraven peers— list BMP peersraven routes— query route table with filters (prefix, origin-asn, peer, posture)raven validate— one-shot prefix validation
Observability
- Prometheus metrics endpoint (default: 9595)
- Pre-built Grafana dashboards (Security Posture Overview, Per-Peer Deep Dive)
Demo Lab
- Containerlab topology: internet AS64496 → upstream AS65000 → edge AS65001
- Scripted demo scenarios: origin hijack, route leak
