| 38 | +Compatibility |
| 39 | +============== |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +Bitcoin Core is extensively tested on multiple operating systems using |
| 42 | +the Linux kernel, macOS 10.8+, and Windows Vista and later. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on [April 8th, 2014](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/WindowsForBusiness/end-of-xp-support), |
| 45 | +No attempt is made to prevent installing or running the software on Windows XP, you |
| 46 | +can still do so at your own risk but be aware that there are known instabilities and issues. |
| 47 | +Please do not report issues about Windows XP to the issue tracker. |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not |
| 50 | +frequently tested on them. |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +Notable changes |
| 53 | +=============== |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +miniupnp CVE-2017-8798 |
| 56 | +---------------------------- |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +Bundled miniupnpc was updated to 2.0.20170509. This fixes an integer signedness error |
| 59 | +(present in MiniUPnPc v1.4.20101221 through v2.0) that allows remote attackers |
| 60 | +(within the LAN) to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified |
| 61 | +other impact. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +This only affects users that have explicitly enabled UPnP through the GUI |
| 64 | +setting or through the `-upnp` option, as since the last UPnP vulnerability |
| 65 | +(in Bitcoin Core 0.10.3) it has been disabled by default. |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +If you use this option, it is recommended to upgrade to this version as soon as |
| 68 | +possible. |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +Known Bugs |
| 71 | +========== |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +Since 0.14.0 the approximate transaction fee shown in Bitcoin-Qt when using coin |
| 74 | +control and smart fee estimation does not reflect any change in target from the |
| 75 | +smart fee slider. It will only present an approximate fee calculated using the |
| 76 | +default target. The fee calculated using the correct target is still applied to |
| 77 | +the transaction and shown in the final send confirmation dialog. |
| 78 | + |
