4
5 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
8 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
9 [Steve Henson]
10
11 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
12 [Steve Henson]
13
14 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
15 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
16 failures.
17 [Steve Henson]
18
19 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
20 sign or verify all in one operation.
21 [Steve Henson]
22
23 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
24 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
25 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
26 [Steve Henson]
27
28 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
29 [Steve Henson]
30
31 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
32 [Steve Henson]
33
34 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
35 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
36 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
37 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
38 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
39 [Steve Henson]
40
41 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
42 based on NID.
43 [Steve Henson]
44
45 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
46 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
47 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
48 [Steve Henson]
49
50 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
51 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
52 [Steve Henson]
53
54 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
55 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
56
57 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
58 POST to handle HMAC cases.
59 [Steve Henson]
60
61 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
62 to return numberical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
63 [Steve Henson]
64
65 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
66 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implmeneted
67 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
68 [Steve Henson]
69
70 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
71 there is no mutiple of the block length between min_len and
72 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
73 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
74 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
75 requested amount of entropy.
76 [Steve Henson]
77
78 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
79 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
80 [Steve Henson]
81
82 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
83 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
84 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
85 support.
86 [Steve Henson]
87
88 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
89 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
90 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
91 [Steve Henson]
92
93 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
94 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
95 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
96 will never use XTS mode.
97 [Steve Henson]
98
99 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
100 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
101 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
102 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
103 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
104 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
105 [Steve Henson]
106
107 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
108 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
109 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
110 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
111 [Steve Henson]
112
113 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
114 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
115 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
116 [Steve Henson]
117
118 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
119 [Steve Henson]
120
121 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
122 [Steve Henson]
123
124 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
125 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
126 [Steve Henson]
127
128 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
129 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
130 [Steve Henson]
131
132 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
133 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
134 [Steve Henson]
135
136 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
137 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
138 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
139 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
140 and rename any affected symbols.
141 [Steve Henson]
142
143 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
144 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
145 [Steve Henson]
146
147 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
148 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
149 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
150 [Steve Henson]
151
152 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
153 [Steve Henson]
154
155 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
156 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
157 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
158 [Steve Henson]
159
160 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
161 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
162 [Steve Henson]
163
164 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
165 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
166 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
167 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
168 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
169 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
170 set before the key.
171 [Steve Henson]
172
173 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
174 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
175 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
176 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
177 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
178 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
179 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
180 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
181 [Steve Henson]
182
183 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
184 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
185 [Steve Henson]
186
187 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
188
189 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
190 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
191
192 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
193 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
194 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
195 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
196 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
197 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
198
199 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
200 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
201 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
202 security.
203 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
204
205 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_diff to find the difference in days
206 and seconds between two tm structures. This will be used to provide
207 additional functionality for ASN1_TIME.
208 [Steve Henson]
209
210 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
211 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
212 [Steve Henson]
213
214 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
215 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
216 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
217 setting is used: whether to trust or reject.
218 [Steve Henson]
219
220 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
221 parameters by name.
222 [Steve Henson]
223
224 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
225 Add CMAC pkey methods.
226 [Steve Henson]
227
228 *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
229 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
230 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
231 [Steve Henson]
232
233 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
234 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
235 multi-process servers.
236 [Steve Henson]
237
238 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
239 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
240 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
241 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
242 RAND_METHOD structure.
243 [Steve Henson]
244
245 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
246 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
247 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
248 whose return value is often ignored.
249 [Steve Henson]
250
251 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
252
253 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
254 [Eric Rescorla]
255
256 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
257 [Eric Rescorla]
258
259 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
260 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
261 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
262 by Google.
263 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
264
265 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
266 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
267 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
268 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
269 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
270
271 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
272 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
273 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
274
275 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
276 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
277 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
278
279 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
280 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
281 implementations).
282 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
283
284 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
285 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
286 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
287 [Steve Henson]
288
289 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
290 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
291 particular PSS.
292 [Steve Henson]
293
294 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
295 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
296 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
297 [Steve Henson]
298
299 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
300 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
301 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
302 the appropriate parameters.
303 [Steve Henson]
304
305 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
306 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
307 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
308 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
309 against a number of sample certificates.
310 [Steve Henson]
311
312 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
313 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
314
315 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
316 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
317
318 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
319 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
320 parameters r, s.
321 [Steve Henson]
322
323 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
324 RFC3211.
325 [Steve Henson]
326
327 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
328 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
329 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
330 password based CMS).
331 [Steve Henson]
332
333 *) Session-handling fixes:
334 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
335 but also support Session Tickets.
336 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
337 presented a ticket with an expired session.
338 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
339 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
340 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
341 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
342
343 *) Fix PSK session representation.
344 [Bodo Moeller]
345
346 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
347
348 This work was sponsored by Intel.
349 [Andy Polyakov]
350
351 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
352 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
353 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
354 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
355 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
356 [Steve Henson]
357
358 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
359 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
360 [Steve Henson]
361
362 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
363 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
364 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
365 [Steve Henson]
366
367 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
368 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
369 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
370 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
371 [Steve Henson]
372
373 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
374 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
375 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
376 [Steve Henson]
377
378 *) Add -attime option to openssl verify.
379 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org> and Ben Laurie]
380
381 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
382 [Steve Henson]
383
384 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
385 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
386 [Steve Henson]
387
388 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
389 [Steve Henson]
390
391 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
392 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
393 [Steve Henson]
394
395 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
396 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
397 [Steve Henson]
398
399 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
400 [Steve Henson]
401
402 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
403 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
404 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
405 [Steve Henson]
406
407 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
408 [Steve Henson]
409
410 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
411 [Steve Henson]
412
413 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
414 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
415 [Steve Henson]
416
417 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
418 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
419 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
420 [Steve Henson]
421
422 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
423 [Steve Henson]
424
425 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
426 and enable MD5.
427 [Steve Henson]
428
429 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
430 FIPS modules versions.
431 [Steve Henson]
432
433 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
434 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
435 until after the certificate request message is received.
436 [Steve Henson]
437
438 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
439 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
440 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
441 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
442 [Steve Henson]
443
444 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
445 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
446 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
447 support yet and no support for client certificates.
448 [Steve Henson]
449
450 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
451 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
452 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
453 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
454 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
455 and version checking.
456 [Steve Henson]
457
458 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
459 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
460 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
461 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
462 [Steve Henson]
463
464 *) Add SRP support.
465 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
466
467 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
468 [Steve Henson]
469
470 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
471 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
472 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
473
474 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
475 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
476 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
477 [Steve Henson]
478
479 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
480 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
481
482 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
483 a few changes are required:
484
485 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
486 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
487 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
488 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
489 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
490 [Steve Henson]
491
492 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [xx XXX xxxx]
493
494 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
495 [Adam Langley (Google)]
496
497 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
498 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
499
500 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
501 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
502 [Adam Langley (Google)]
503
504 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
505 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
506 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
507
508 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
509 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
510 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
511 the last update always remained unused).
512 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
513
514 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
515 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
516
517 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
518
519 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
520 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
521 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
522
523 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
524 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
525 [Adam Langley (Google)]
526
527 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
528 [Bodo Moeller]
529
530 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
531 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
532 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
533 [Steve Henson]
534
535 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
536 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
537
538 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
539
540 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
541
542 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
543
544 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
545 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
546
547 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
548 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
549 ambiguous.
550 [Steve Henson]
551
552 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
553
554 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
555 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
556 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
557 [Steve Henson]
558
559 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
560 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
561 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
562 [Ben Laurie]
563
564 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
565
566 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
567 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
568 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
569 [Steve Henson]
570
571 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
572 a DLL.
573 [Steve Henson]
574
575 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
576
577 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
578 (CVE-2010-1633)
579 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
580
581 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
582
583 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
584 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
585 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
586 [Steve Henson]
587
588 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
589 [Steve Henson]
590
591 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
592 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
593 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
594
595 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
596 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
597 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
598 [Steve Henson]
599
600 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
601 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
602 [Steve Henson]
603
604 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
605 some responders need this.
606 [Steve Henson]
607
608 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
609 correctly.
610 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
611
612 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
613 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
614 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
615 [Steve Henson]
616
617 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
618 [Steve Henson]
619
620 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
621 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
622 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
623 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
624 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
625 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
626 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
627 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
628 [Steve Henson]
629
630 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
631 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
632 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
633 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
634
635 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
636 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
637
638 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
639 be used on C++.
640 [Steve Henson]
641
642 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
643 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
644 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
645 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
646 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
647 attempting to work them out.
648 [Steve Henson]
649
650 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
651 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
652 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
653 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
654 [Steve Henson]
655
656 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
657 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
658 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
659 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
660 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
661 [Steve Henson]
662
663 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
664 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
665 you can do:
666
667 openssl sha256 foo
668
669 as well as:
670
671 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
672
673 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
674
675 [Steve Henson]
676
677 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
678 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
679
680 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
681 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
682
683 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
684 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
685 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
686 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
687 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
688 [Steve Henson]
689
690 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
691 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
692 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
693 [Steve Henson]
694
695 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
696 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
697 [Steve Henson]
698
699 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
700 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
701
702 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
703 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
704 [Steve Henson]
705
706 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
707 [Ben Laurie]
708
709 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
710 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
711 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
712 CONF_VALUE.
713 [Ben Laurie]
714
715 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
716 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
717 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
718 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
719 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
720 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
721 [Steve Henson]
722
723 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
724 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
725
726 This work was sponsored by Google.
727 [Steve Henson]
728
729 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
730 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
731 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
732 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
733 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
734 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
735 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
736 default.
737
738 This work was sponsored by Google.
739 [Steve Henson]
740
741 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
742
743 This work was sponsored by Google.
744 [Steve Henson]
745
746 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
747 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
748 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
749 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
750
751 This work was sponsored by Google.
752 [Steve Henson]
753
754 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
755 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
756 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
757 CRL functionality in future.
758
759 This work was sponsored by Google.
760 [Steve Henson]
761
762 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
763
764 This work was sponsored by Google.
765 [Steve Henson]
766
767 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
768 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
769
770 This work was sponsored by Google.
771 [Steve Henson]
772
773 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
774 and URI types are currently supported.
775
776 This work was sponsored by Google.
777 [Steve Henson]
778
779 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
780 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
781 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
782 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
783 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
784 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
785 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
786 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
787
788 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
789 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
790 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
791
792 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
793 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
794 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
795 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
796
797 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
798 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
799 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
800 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
801 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
802 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
803 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
804 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
805 of &errno.)
806 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
807
808 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
809 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
810 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
811
812 This work was sponsored by Google.
813 [Steve Henson]
814
815 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
816 [Ben Laurie]
817
818 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
819 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
820 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
821 [Ben Laurie]
822
823 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
824 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
825 [Nick Mathewson]
826
827 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
828 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
829 [Ben Laurie]
830
831 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
832 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
833 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
834 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
835 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
836 content types and variants.
837 [Steve Henson]
838
839 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
840 [Steve Henson]
841
842 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
843 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
844 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
845 files from the associated perl scripts.
846 [Steve Henson]
847
848 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
849 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
850 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
851
852 *) s390x assembler pack.
853 [Andy Polyakov]
854
855 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
856 "family."
857 [Andy Polyakov]
858
859 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
860 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
861 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
862 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
863 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
864 to use. For example, specify an option
865
866 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
867
868 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
869 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
870 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
871 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
872 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
873 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
874
875 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
876 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
877 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
878 return non-zero for success.
879
880 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
881 by using
882
883 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
884 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
885
886 where
887
888 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
889 void *arg;
890
891 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
892 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
893 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
894 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
895 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
896 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
897 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
898 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
899 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
900
901 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
902 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
903 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
904 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
905 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
906 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
907
908 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
909 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
910 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
911 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
912 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
913 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
914
915 [Bodo Moeller]
916
917 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
918 MAC.
919
920 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
921
922 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
923 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
924 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
925 supported.
926
927 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
928 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
929 SSL_SESSION.
930
931 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
932 protection in servers so again support should be possible
933 with no application modification.
934
935 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
936 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
937
938 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
939 or server extensions to be examined.
940
941 This work was sponsored by Google.
942 [Steve Henson]
943
944 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
945 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
946 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
947
948 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
949 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
950 ciphersuite support.
951 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
952
953 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
954 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
955 to output in BER and PEM format.
956 [Steve Henson]
957
958 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
959 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
960 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
961 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
962 -macopt options to dgst utility.
963 [Steve Henson]
964
965 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
966 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
967 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
968 utility.
969 [Steve Henson]
970
971 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
972 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
973 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
974 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
975 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
976 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
977 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
978 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
979 enabled again.
980
981 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
982 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
983 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
984 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
985
986 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
987 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
988 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
989 the default order.
990 [Bodo Moeller]
991
992 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
993 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
994 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
995 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
996 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
997 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
998 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
999 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1000 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1001
1002 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1003 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1004 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1005 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1006 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1007 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1008 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1009 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1010 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1011 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1012 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1013 kinds of kludges.
1014
1015 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1016 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1017 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1018
1019 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1020 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1021 "CAMELLIA256".
1022 [Bodo Moeller]
1023
1024 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1025 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1026 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1027 [Nils Larsch]
1028
1029 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1030 it yet and it is largely untested.
1031 [Steve Henson]
1032
1033 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1034 [Nils Larsch]
1035
1036 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1037 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1038 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1039 [Steve Henson]
1040
1041 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1042 [Andy Polyakov]
1043
1044 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1045 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1046 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1047 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1048 [Steve Henson]
1049
1050 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1051 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1052 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1053 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1054 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1055 [Steve Henson]
1056
1057 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1058 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1059 [Cryptocom]
1060
1061 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1062 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1063 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1064 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1065 [Steve Henson]
1066
1067 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1068 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1069 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1070 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1071 [Steve Henson]
1072
1073 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1074 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1075 [Steve Henson]
1076
1077 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1078 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1079 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1080 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1081 [Steve Henson]
1082
1083 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1084 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1085 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1086 [Steve Henson]
1087
1088 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1089 utility.
1090 [Steve Henson]
1091
1092 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1093 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1094 [Steve Henson]
1095
1096 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1097 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1098 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1099 if necessary.
1100 [Steve Henson]
1101
1102 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1103 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1104 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1105 [Steve Henson]
1106
1107 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1108 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1109 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1110 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1111 [Steve Henson]
1112
1113 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1114 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1115 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1116 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1117 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1118 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1119 [Douglas Stebila]
1120
1121 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1122 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1123 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1124 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1125 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1126
1127 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1128 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1129 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1130 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1131 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1132 protocol).
1133
1134 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1135 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1136 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1137 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1138
1139 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1140 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1141 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1142 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1143 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1144
1145 aECDH - ECDH cert
1146 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1147 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1148
1149 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1150 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1151
1152 [Bodo Moeller]
1153
1154 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1155 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1156 [Steve Henson]
1157
1158 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1159 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1160 [Steve Henson]
1161
1162 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1163 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1164 functional reference processing.
1165 [Steve Henson]
1166
1167 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1168 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1169 process.
1170 [Steve Henson]
1171
1172 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1173 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1174 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1175 [Steve Henson]
1176
1177 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1178 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1179 application to support multiple signers.
1180 [Steve Henson]
1181
1182 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1183 digest MAC.
1184 [Steve Henson]
1185
1186 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1187 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1188 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1189 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1190 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1191 [Steve Henson]
1192
1193 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1194 new API.
1195 [Steve Henson]
1196
1197 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1198 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1199 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1200 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1201 a no op.
1202 [Steve Henson]
1203
1204 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1205 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1206 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1207 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1208 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1209 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1210 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1211 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1212 [Steve Henson]
1213
1214 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1215 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1216 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1217 between digests and public key types.
1218 [Steve Henson]
1219
1220 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1221 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1222 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1223 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1224 [Steve Henson]
1225
1226 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1227 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1228 key ASN1 method.
1229 [Steve Henson]
1230
1231 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1232 [Steve Henson]
1233
1234 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1235 pkeyutl.
1236 [Steve Henson]
1237
1238 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1239 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1240 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1241 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1242 pkey, genpkey.
1243 [Steve Henson]
1244
1245 *) BeOS support.
1246 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1247
1248 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1249 manual pages.
1250 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1251
1252 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1253 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1254 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1255 functionality for RSA.
1256 [Steve Henson]
1257
1258 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1259 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1260 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1261 [Steve Henson]
1262
1263 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1264 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1265 [Steve Henson]
1266
1267 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1268 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1269 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1270 [Steve Henson]
1271
1272 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1273 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1274 [Douglas Stebila]
1275
1276 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1277 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1278 [Steve Henson]
1279
1280 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1281 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1282 type.
1283 [Steve Henson]
1284
1285 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1286 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1287 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1288 structure.
1289 [Steve Henson]
1290
1291 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1292 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1293 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1294 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1295 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1296 of public and private key structures.
1297 [Steve Henson]
1298
1299 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1300 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1301 [Douglas Stebila]
1302
1303 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1304 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1305 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1306
1307 New ciphersuites:
1308 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1309 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1310
1311 New functions:
1312 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1313 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1314 SSL_get_psk_identity
1315 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1316
1317 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1318
1319 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1320 and response verification functionality.
1321 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1322
1323 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1324 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1325 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1326 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1327 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1328 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1329 server_name extension.
1330
1331 New functions (subject to change):
1332
1333 SSL_get_servername()
1334 SSL_get_servername_type()
1335 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1336
1337 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1338
1339 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1340 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1341 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1342 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1343 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1344
1345 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1346
1347 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1348 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1349 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1350 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1351 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1352 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1353 option.
1354
1355 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1356
1357 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1358 [Andy Polyakov]
1359
1360 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1361 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1362 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1363 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1364 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1365 [Andy Polyakov]
1366
1367 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1368 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1369 macro.
1370 [Bodo Moeller]
1371
1372 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1373 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1374 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1375 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1376 [Andy Polyakov]
1377
1378 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1379 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1380 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1381 using the maximum available value.
1382 [Steve Henson]
1383
1384 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1385 in addition to the text details.
1386 [Bodo Moeller]
1387
1388 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1389 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1390 handle several customised structures at all.
1391 [Steve Henson]
1392
1393 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1394 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1395 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1396 [Steve Henson]
1397
1398 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1399 [Steve Henson]
1400
1401 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
1402 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
1403 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
1404 [Steve Henson]
1405
1406 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
1407 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
1408 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
1409 [Nils Larsch]
1410
1411 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
1412 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
1413 all fields.
1414 [Steve Henson]
1415
1416 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
1417 [Steve Henson]
1418
1419 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
1420 [NTT]
1421
1422 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [xx XXX xxxx]
1423
1424 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1425 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1426
1427 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1428 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1429
1430 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1431 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1432 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1433
1434 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1435 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1436 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1437
1438 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1439 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1440 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1441 the last update always remained unused).
1442 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1443
1444 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1445 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
1446 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1447
1448 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1449 [Bodo Moeller]
1450
1451 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1452 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1453
1454 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1455
1456 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1457
1458 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
1459
1460 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1461 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1462
1463 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1464 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1465 ambiguous.
1466 [Steve Henson]
1467
1468 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
1469
1470 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1471 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1472 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1473 [Steve Henson]
1474
1475 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1476 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1477 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1478 [Ben Laurie]
1479
1480 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
1481
1482 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1483 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1484 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1485 [Steve Henson]
1486
1487 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
1488 [Steve Henson]
1489
1490 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
1491 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
1492 some broken encodings work correctly.
1493 [Steve Henson]
1494
1495 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
1496 is also one of the inputs.
1497 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1498
1499 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
1500 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
1501 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
1502 etc are non-op.
1503 [Steve Henson]
1504
1505 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
1506
1507 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
1508 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
1509
1510 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
1511 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
1512 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
1513
1514 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
1515 common in certificates and some applications which only call
1516 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
1517 [Steve Henson]
1518
1519 *) VMS fixes:
1520 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
1521 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
1522 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
1523 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
1524
1525 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
1526
1527 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
1528 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
1529 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
1530 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
1531 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
1532 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
1533 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
1534 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
1535
1536 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
1537 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
1538 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
1539
1540 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
1541
1542 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
1543 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
1544
1545 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
1546 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
1547 [Bodo Moeller]
1548
1549 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
1550 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
1551 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
1552 [Steve Henson]
1553
1554 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
1555 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
1556 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
1557 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
1558 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
1559 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
1560 [Steve Henson]
1561
1562 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
1563 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
1564 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
1565 [Steve Henson]
1566
1567 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
1568 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
1569 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
1570 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
1571 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
1572 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
1573 CVE-2009-4355.
1574 [Steve Henson]
1575
1576 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
1577 change when encrypting or decrypting.
1578 [Bodo Moeller]
1579
1580 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
1581 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
1582 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
1583 [Steve Henson]
1584
1585 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
1586 [Steve Henson]
1587
1588 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
1589 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
1590 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
1591 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
1592 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
1593 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
1594 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
1595 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
1596 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
1597 [Steve Henson]
1598
1599 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
1600 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
1601 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
1602 [Steve Henson]
1603
1604 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
1605 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
1606 [Steve Henson]
1607
1608 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
1609 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
1610 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
1611 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
1612 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
1613 know what you are doing.
1614 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
1615
1616 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
1617 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
1618 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
1619 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
1620 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
1621 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
1622 the handshake.
1623 [Steve Henson]
1624
1625 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
1626 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
1627 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
1628 correctly.
1629 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1630
1631 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
1632 warnings in other configurations.
1633 [Steve Henson]
1634
1635 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
1636 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
1637 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
1638 systems need.
1639 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
1640
1641 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
1642 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
1643 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
1644
1645 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
1646 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
1647 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
1648 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
1649 [Steve Henson]
1650
1651 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
1652 and restored.
1653 [Steve Henson]
1654
1655 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
1656 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
1657 clash.
1658 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1659
1660 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
1661 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
1662 other than a simple chain.
1663 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
1664
1665 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
1666 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
1667 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
1668 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
1669 [Steve Henson]
1670
1671 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
1672 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
1673 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
1674 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
1675 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
1676 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
1677 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
1678 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
1679 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
1680
1681 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
1682 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
1683 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
1684 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
1685 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
1686 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
1687 (CVE-2009-1377)
1688 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
1689
1690 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
1691 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
1692 [Daniel Mentz]
1693
1694 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
1695 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
1696
1697 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
1698 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
1699
1700 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
1701
1702 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
1703 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
1704 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
1705 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
1706 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
1707 you're doing.
1708 [Ben Laurie]
1709
1710 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
1711
1712 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
1713 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
1714 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
1715 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
1716
1717 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
1718 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
1719 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
1720 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
1721
1722 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
1723 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
1724 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
1725 [Steve Henson]
1726
1727 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
1728 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
1729 level.
1730 [Steve Henson]
1731
1732 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
1733 to handle some structures.
1734 [Steve Henson]
1735
1736 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
1737 for a '\n'
1738 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
1739
1740 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
1741 [Matthieu Herrb]
1742
1743 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
1744 [Steve Henson]
1745
1746 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
1747 [Steve Henson]
1748
1749 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
1750 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
1751 chosen compiler.
1752 [Ben Laurie]
1753
1754 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
1755
1756 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
1757 (CVE-2008-5077).
1758 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
1759
1760 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
1761 [Ben Laurie]
1762
1763 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
1764 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
1765 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
1766 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
1767
1768 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
1769 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
1770
1771 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
1772 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
1773 [Bodo Moeller]
1774
1775 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
1776 s_client and s_server.
1777 [Ben Laurie]
1778
1779 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
1780 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1781
1782 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
1783 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
1784
1785 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
1786 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
1787 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
1788 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
1789 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
1790 [Bodo Moeller]
1791
1792 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
1793
1794 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
1795 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
1796 [PR #1679]
1797
1798 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
1799 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
1800 [Nagendra Modadugu]
1801
1802 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
1803 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
1804 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
1805 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
1806
1807 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
1808 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
1809
1810 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
1811
1812 *) Various precautionary measures:
1813
1814 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
1815
1816 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
1817 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
1818 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
1819
1820 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
1821 outside the expected range.
1822
1823 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
1824 builds.
1825
1826 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
1827
1828 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
1829 the load fails. Useful for distros.
1830 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
1831
1832 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
1833 [Steve Henson]
1834
1835 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
1836 [Huang Ying]
1837
1838 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
1839
1840 This work was sponsored by Logica.
1841 [Steve Henson]
1842
1843 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
1844 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
1845 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
1846
1847 This work was sponsored by Logica.
1848 [Steve Henson]
1849
1850 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
1851 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
1852 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
1853 files.
1854 [Steve Henson]
1855
1856 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
1857
1858 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
1859 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
1860 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
1861 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
1862
1863 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
1864 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
1865 [Joe Orton]
1866
1867 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
1868
1869 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
1870 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
1871 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
1872
1873 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
1874
1875 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
1876 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
1877 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
1878 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
1879 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1880
1881 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
1882 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
1883 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
1884 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
1885 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
1886 invalid read after the end of 'db').
1887 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
1888
1889 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
1890
1891 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
1892 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
1893 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
1894 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
1895 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
1896
1897 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
1898 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
1899
1900 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
1901 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
1902 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
1903 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
1904 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
1905
1906 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
1907
1908 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
1909 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
1910 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
1911 sets may exist with different names.
1912 [Steve Henson]
1913
1914 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
1915 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
1916 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
1917 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
1918 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
1919 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
1920 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
1921 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
1922 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
1923 implementation.
1924 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
1925
1926 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
1927 implemention in the following ways:
1928
1929 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
1930 hard coded.
1931
1932 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
1933 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
1934 ignored for embedded content.
1935
1936 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
1937 with the enable-cms configuration option.
1938 [Steve Henson]
1939
1940 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
1941 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
1942 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
1943 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
1944
1945 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
1946 uncompresses any data passed through it.
1947 [Steve Henson]
1948
1949 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
1950 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
1951 [Steve Henson]
1952
1953 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
1954 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
1955 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
1956 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
1957 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
1958 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
1959 data.
1960 [Steve Henson]
1961
1962 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
1963 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
1964 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1965
1966 *) Netware support:
1967
1968 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
1969 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
1970 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
1971 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
1972 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
1973 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
1974 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
1975 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
1976 platform
1977 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
1978 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
1979 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
1980 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
1981 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
1982 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
1983 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
1984
1985 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
1986 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
1987 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
1988 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
1989 to s_client and s_server.
1990 [Steve Henson]
1991
1992 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
1993
1994 *) Fix various bugs:
1995 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
1996 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
1997 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
1998 + Fix ia64 assembler code
1999 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2000
2001 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2002
2003 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2004 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2005 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2006 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2007 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2008 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2009 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2010 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2011 [Andy Polyakov]
2012
2013 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2014 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2015 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2016 Steve Henson]
2017
2018 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2019 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2020 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2021 supported.
2022
2023 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2024 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2025 SSL_SESSION.
2026
2027 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2028 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2029 with no application modification.
2030
2031 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2032 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2033
2034 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2035 or server extensions to be examined.
2036
2037 This work was sponsored by Google.
2038 [Steve Henson]
2039
2040 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2041 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2042 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2043 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2044 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2045 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2046 server_name extension.
2047
2048 New functions (subject to change):
2049
2050 SSL_get_servername()
2051 SSL_get_servername_type()
2052 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2053
2054 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2055
2056 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2057 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2058 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2059 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2060 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2061
2062 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2063
2064 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2065 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2066 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2067 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2068 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2069 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2070 option.
2071
2072 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2073
2074 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2075 [Steve Henson]
2076
2077 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2078 [Andy Polyakov]
2079
2080 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2081 (which previously caused an internal error).
2082 [Bodo Moeller]
2083
2084 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2085 [Ben Laurie]
2086
2087 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2088 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2089
2090 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2091 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2092 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2093
2094 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2095 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2096 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2097 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2098
2099 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2100 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2101 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2102 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2103
2104 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2105 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2106 information. For detailed background information, see
2107 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2108 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2109 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2110 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2111 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2112 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2113 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2114 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2115 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2116 remove a conditional branch.
2117
2118 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2119 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2120 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2121 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2122 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2123 remains as a deprecated alias.
2124
2125 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2126 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2127 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2128 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2129
2130 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2131 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2132 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2133 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2134 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2135 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2136 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2137 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2138
2139 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2140
2141 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2142 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2143 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2144 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2145 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2146 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2147 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2148 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2149 in a different context.
2150 [Bodo Moeller]
2151
2152 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2153 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2154 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2155 [Bodo Moeller]
2156
2157 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2158 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2159 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2160
2161 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2162
2163 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2164 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2165 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2166 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2167 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2168 [Victor Duchovni]
2169
2170 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2171 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2172 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2173 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2174 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2175 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2176 [Bodo Moeller]
2177
2178 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2179 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2180 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2181 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2182 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2183 [Bodo Moeller]
2184
2185 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2186 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2187
2188 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2189 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2190 Improve header file function name parsing.
2191 [Steve Henson]
2192
2193 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2194 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2195 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2196
2197 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2198
2199 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2200 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2201 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2202
2203 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2204 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2205
2206 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2207 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2208
2209 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2210 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2211 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2212
2213 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2214 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2215 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2216 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2217 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2218 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2219 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2220 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2221 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2222
2223 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2224 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2225 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2226 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2227 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2228
2229 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2230 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2231 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2232 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2233 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2234 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2235 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2236 multiple values to extend the available space.
2237
2238 [Bodo Moeller]
2239
2240 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2241
2242 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2243 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2244
2245 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2246 [Ben Laurie]
2247
2248 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2249 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2250 undesirable limitations.
2251 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2252
2253 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2254 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2255 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2256 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2257 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2258 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2259 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2260 [Bodo Moeller]
2261
2262 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2263
2264 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2265 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2266 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2267
2268 The latter two were purportedly from
2269 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2270 appear there.
2271
2272 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
2273 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2274 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2275 [Bodo Moeller]
2276
2277 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2278 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2279 [Bodo Moeller]
2280
2281 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2282 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2283 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2284 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2285
2286 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2287 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2288 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2289 [NTT]
2290
2291 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2292 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2293 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2294 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2295 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2296 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2297 [Steve Henson]
2298
2299 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
2300
2301 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2302 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2303 [Steve Henson]
2304
2305 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2306 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2307
2308 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2309 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2310 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2311 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
2312 [Douglas Stebila]
2313
2314 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2315 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2316 [Steve Henson]
2317
2318 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
2319 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
2320 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
2321 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
2322 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
2323 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
2324 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
2325 can't be loaded.
2326 [Steve Henson]
2327
2328 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
2329 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
2330 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
2331 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
2332 [Steve Henson]
2333
2334 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
2335 under VC++ build system.
2336 [Steve Henson]
2337
2338 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
2339 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
2340 [Richard Levitte]
2341
2342 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
2343
2344 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2345 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2346 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2347 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2348 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2349
2350 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2351 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2352 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2353
2354 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
2355 [Steve Henson]
2356
2357 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
2358 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2359 [Nils Larsch]
2360
2361 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
2362 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
2363
2364 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
2365 [Nick Mathewson]
2366
2367 *) Extended Windows CE support.
2368 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
2369
2370 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
2371 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2372 [Steve Henson]
2373
2374 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
2375 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
2376 smime utility.
2377 [Steve Henson]
2378
2379 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
2380
2381 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2382 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2383
2384 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
2385 [Richard Levitte]
2386
2387 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
2388 key into the same file any more.
2389 [Richard Levitte]
2390
2391 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
2392 [Andy Polyakov]
2393
2394 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
2395 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
2396
2397 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
2398 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
2399 [Richard Levitte]
2400
2401 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
2402 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
2403 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
2404 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
2405 this only applies when building 'shared'.
2406 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
2407
2408 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
2409 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
2410 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
2411 [Steve Henson]
2412
2413 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
2414 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
2415 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
2416 - add new function for parameter creation
2417 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
2418 BN_BLINDING parameters
2419 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
2420 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
2421 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
2422 threads.
2423 [Nils Larsch]
2424
2425 *) Add support for DTLS.
2426 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2427
2428 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
2429 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
2430 [Walter Goulet]
2431
2432 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
2433 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
2434 [Nils Larsch]
2435
2436 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
2437 the apps/openssl applications.
2438 [Nils Larsch]
2439
2440 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
2441 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
2442 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
2443 [Ben Laurie]
2444
2445 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
2446 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
2447
2448 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
2449 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
2450
2451 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
2452 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
2453 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
2454 avoid this algorithm.)
2455
2456 [Bodo Moeller]
2457
2458 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
2459 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
2460 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
2461 [Richard Levitte]
2462
2463 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
2464 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
2465 [Andy Polyakov]
2466
2467 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
2468 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
2469 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
2470 pod file:
2471
2472 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
2473
2474 The blank line is mandatory.
2475
2476 [Steve Henson]
2477
2478 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
2479 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
2480 sources.
2481 [Steve Henson]
2482
2483 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
2484 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
2485
2486 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
2487 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
2488 to support policy checking and print out.
2489 [Steve Henson]
2490
2491 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
2492 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
2493 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
2494 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
2495
2496 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
2497 [Geoff Thorpe]
2498
2499 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
2500 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
2501
2502 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
2503 implementation contributed by IBM.
2504 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
2505
2506 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
2507 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
2508 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
2509 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
2510
2511 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
2512 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
2513
2514 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
2515 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
2516 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
2517 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
2518 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
2519 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
2520 [Steve Henson]
2521
2522 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
2523 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
2524 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
2525 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
2526 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
2527 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
2528 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
2529 [Geoff Thorpe]
2530
2531 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
2532 [Steve Henson]
2533
2534 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
2535 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
2536 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
2537 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
2538 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
2539 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
2540 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
2541 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
2542 [Steve Henson]
2543
2544 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
2545 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
2546 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
2547 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
2548 [Steve Henson]
2549
2550 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
2551 syntax:
2552
2553 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
2554 [Steve Henson]
2555
2556 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
2557 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
2558 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
2559 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
2560 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
2561 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
2562 BN_CTX's "bundling".
2563 [Geoff Thorpe]
2564
2565 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
2566 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
2567 [Geoff Thorpe]
2568
2569 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
2570 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
2571 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
2572 [Steve Henson]
2573
2574 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
2575 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
2576 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
2577 below).
2578 [Geoff Thorpe]
2579
2580 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
2581 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
2582 [Richard Levitte]
2583
2584 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
2585 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
2586 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
2587 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
2588 [Geoff Thorpe]
2589
2590 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
2591 initialised value as BN_new().
2592 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
2593
2594 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
2595 [Steve Henson]
2596
2597 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
2598 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
2599 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
2600 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
2601 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
2602 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
2603 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
2604 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
2605 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
2606 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
2607 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
2608 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
2609 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
2610 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
2611 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
2612
2613 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
2614 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
2615 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
2616 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
2617 [Geoff Thorpe]
2618
2619 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
2620 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
2621 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
2622 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
2623 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
2624 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
2625 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
2626 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
2627 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
2628 [Geoff Thorpe]
2629
2630 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
2631 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
2632 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
2633 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
2634 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
2635 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
2636 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
2637 [Geoff Thorpe]
2638
2639 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
2640 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
2641 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
2642 these have been updated also.
2643 [Geoff Thorpe]
2644
2645 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
2646 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
2647 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
2648 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
2649 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
2650 functions.
2651 [Steve Henson]
2652
2653 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
2654 structure of type "other".
2655 [Steve Henson]
2656
2657 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
2658 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
2659 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
2660 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
2661 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
2662 situation in the script.
2663 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2664
2665 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2666 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
2667 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
2668 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
2669 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
2670 used as premaster secret.
2671 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2672
2673 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
2674 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
2675 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2676
2677 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
2678 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
2679
2680 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
2681 control of the error stack.
2682 [Richard Levitte]
2683
2684 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
2685 [Richard Levitte]
2686
2687 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
2688 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
2689 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
2690 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
2691 [Richard Levitte]
2692
2693 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
2694 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
2695 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
2696 [Richard Levitte]
2697
2698 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
2699 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
2700 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
2701 a memory area.
2702 [Richard Levitte]
2703
2704 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
2705 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
2706 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
2707 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
2708 [Richard Levitte]
2709
2710 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
2711 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
2712 the following flags are defined:
2713
2714 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
2715 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
2716 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
2717 number.
2718
2719 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
2720 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
2721 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
2722 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
2723 returns zero.
2724 [Richard Levitte]
2725
2726 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
2727 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
2728 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
2729 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
2730 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
2731 [Richard Levitte]
2732
2733 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
2734 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
2735 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
2736 [Richard Levitte]
2737
2738 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
2739 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
2740 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
2741 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
2742 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
2743 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
2744 [Richard Levitte]
2745
2746 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
2747 req and dirName.
2748 [Steve Henson]
2749
2750 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
2751 [Steve Henson]
2752
2753 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
2754 [Steve Henson]
2755
2756 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
2757 [Steve Henson]
2758
2759 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
2760 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
2761 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
2762 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
2763 default implementation more easily.
2764 [Geoff Thorpe]
2765
2766 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
2767 in config files.
2768 [Steve Henson]
2769
2770 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
2771 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
2772 [Richard Levitte]
2773
2774 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
2775 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
2776 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
2777 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
2778
2779 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
2780 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
2781 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
2782 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
2783 [Steve Henson]
2784
2785 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
2786 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
2787 to do it.
2788 [Richard Levitte]
2789
2790 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
2791 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
2792 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
2793 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
2794 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
2795 scalar * generator).
2796 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
2797
2798 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
2799 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
2800 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
2801 correctly.
2802 [Steve Henson]
2803
2804 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
2805 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
2806 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
2807 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
2808 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
2809 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
2810 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
2811 linker additions, eg;
2812 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
2813 [Geoff Thorpe]
2814
2815 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
2816 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
2817 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
2818 [Geoff Thorpe]
2819
2820 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
2821 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
2822 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
2823 via PR#459)
2824 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2825
2826 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
2827 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
2828 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
2829 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
2830 [Geoff Thorpe]
2831
2832 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
2833 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
2834 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
2835 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
2836 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
2837 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
2838 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
2839 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
2840 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
2841 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
2842
2843 Example for using the new callback interface:
2844
2845 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
2846 void *my_arg = ...;
2847 BN_GENCB my_cb;
2848
2849 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
2850
2851 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
2852 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
2853 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
2854 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
2855 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
2856 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
2857 */
2858
2859 [Geoff Thorpe]
2860
2861 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
2862 available to TLS with the number defined in
2863 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
2864 [Richard Levitte]
2865
2866 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
2867 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
2868
2869 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
2870 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
2871 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
2872 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
2873
2874 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
2875 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
2876
2877 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
2878 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
2879 well.
2880 [Richard Levitte]
2881
2882 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
2883 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
2884 [Richard Levitte]
2885
2886 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
2887 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
2888 and a macro that behave like
2889 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
2890
2891 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
2892 [Nils Larsch]
2893
2894 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
2895 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
2896 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
2897 if applicable.
2898 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2899
2900 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
2901 [Bodo Moeller]
2902
2903 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
2904 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
2905 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
2906 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
2907 directory engines/.
2908 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
2909 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
2910 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
2911 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
2912 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
2913 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
2914 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
2915 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
2916
2917 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
2918 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
2919 [Richard Levitte]
2920
2921 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
2922 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
2923
2924 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
2925 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
2926 files while avoiding the low level API.
2927
2928 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
2929 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
2930 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
2931 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
2932
2933 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
2934 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
2935 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
2936 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
2937 instead of the low level API.
2938 [Steve Henson]
2939
2940 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
2941 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
2942 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
2943 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
2944 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
2945 PKCS#7 code.
2946
2947 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
2948 down to the template encoder.
2949 [Steve Henson]
2950
2951 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
2952 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
2953 [Bodo Moeller]
2954
2955 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
2956 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
2957 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
2958 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2959
2960 *) Add ECDH engine support.
2961 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2962
2963 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
2964 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2965
2966 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
2967 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
2968 [Bodo Moeller]
2969
2970 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
2971 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
2972 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
2973 [Bodo Moeller]
2974
2975 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
2976 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
2977
2978 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2979 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2980
2981 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
2982 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
2983 New EC_METHOD:
2984
2985 EC_GF2m_simple_method
2986
2987 New API functions:
2988
2989 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
2990 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
2991 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
2992 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
2993 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
2994 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
2995
2996 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
2997 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
2998 enable it).
2999
3000 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3001 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3002 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3003 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3004 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3005 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3006 various internal method names.)
3007
3008 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3009 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3010
3011 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3012 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3013
3014 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3015 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3016
3017 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3018 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3019 methods are undefined.
3020
3021 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3022 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3023
3024 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3025 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3026 length of the modulus.
3027
3028 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3029 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3030
3031 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3032 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3033
3034 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3035 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3036
3037 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3038 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3039 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3040
3041 BN_GF2m_add
3042 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3043 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3044 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3045 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3046 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3047 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3048 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3049 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3050 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3051
3052 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3053 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3054
3055 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3056 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3057 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3058 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3059 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3060 where
3061 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3062 This applies to the following functions:
3063
3064 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3065 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3066 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3067 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3068 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3069 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3070 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3071 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3072 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3073 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3074
3075 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3076
3077 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3078 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3079
3080 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3081
3082 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3083 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3084 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3085 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3086 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3087
3088 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3089 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3090
3091 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3092 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3093 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3094
3095 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3096 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3097
3098 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3099 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3100 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3101 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3102 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3103
3104 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3105 functions
3106 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3107 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3108 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3109 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3110 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3111 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3112 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3113 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3114 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3115 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3116 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3117 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3118
3119 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3120 functions
3121 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3122 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3123 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3124 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3125 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3126
3127 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3128 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3129 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3130 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3131
3132 *) Add functions
3133 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3134 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3135 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3136 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3137 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3138 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3139 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3140
3141 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3142 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3143 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3144 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3145 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3146 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3147 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3148 adding different types of curves.
3149 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3150
3151 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3152 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3153 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3154 [Bodo Moeller]
3155
3156 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3157 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3158
3159 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3160 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3161 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3162 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3163
3164 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3165
3166 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3167 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3168
3169 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3170 library. Most notably,
3171 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3172 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3173 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3174 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3175 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3176 extracted before the specific public key;
3177 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3178 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3179
3180 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3181 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3182 function
3183 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3184 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3185 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3186 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3187 accessed via
3188 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3189 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3190 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3191
3192 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3193 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3194 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3195 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3196 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3197 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3198 differing sizes.
3199 [Richard Levitte]
3200
3201 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3202
3203 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3204 sensitive data.
3205 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3206
3207 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3208 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3209 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3210 [Bodo Moeller]
3211
3212 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3213 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3214 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3215 [Victor Duchovni]
3216
3217 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3218 [Steve Henson]
3219
3220 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3221 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3222 [Steve Henson]
3223
3224 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3225 run algorithm test programs.
3226 [Steve Henson]
3227
3228 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3229 [Steve Henson]
3230
3231 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3232 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3233 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3234 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3235 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3236 [Bodo Moeller]
3237
3238 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3239 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3240 [Steve Henson]
3241
3242 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3243
3244 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3245 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3246 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3247
3248 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3249 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3250
3251 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3252 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3253
3254 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3255 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3256 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3257
3258 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3259 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3260 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3261 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3262 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
3263 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
3264 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
3265 [Bodo Moeller]
3266
3267 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
3268
3269 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3270 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3271
3272 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3273 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3274 undesirable limitations.
3275 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3276
3277 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3278
3279 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3280 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3281 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3282
3283 The latter two were purportedly from
3284 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3285 appear there.
3286
3287 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3288 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3289 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3290 [Bodo Moeller]
3291
3292 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3293 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3294 [Bodo Moeller]
3295
3296 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3297
3298 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3299 module in FIPS mode.
3300 [Steve Henson]
3301
3302 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3303 [Steve Henson]
3304
3305 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3306 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3307 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3308 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
3309 [Steve Henson]
3310
3311 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3312
3313 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3314 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3315 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3316 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3317 the difference induced by this change.
3318 [Andy Polyakov]
3319
3320 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
3321
3322 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3323 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3324 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3325 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3326 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3327
3328 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3329 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3330 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3331
3332 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
3333 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
3334 [Steve Henson]
3335
3336 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
3337 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
3338 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
3339 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
3340 biased k.)
3341 [Bodo Moeller]
3342
3343 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
3344 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
3345 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
3346 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
3347 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
3348
3349 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
3350 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
3351 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
3352 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
3353 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
3354 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
3355
3356 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
3357
3358 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
3359 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
3360 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
3361 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
3362 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
3363 [Bodo Moeller]
3364
3365 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
3366 clients need.
3367 [Steve Henson]
3368
3369 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
3370 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
3371 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
3372 [Steve Henson]
3373
3374 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
3375 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
3376 structures constant.
3377 [Steve Henson]
3378
3379 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
3380
3381 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3382 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3383
3384 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
3385 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
3386 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
3387 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
3388 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
3389 some needed definitions.
3390 [Steve Henson]
3391
3392 *) Undo Cygwin change.
3393 [Ulf Möller]
3394
3395 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
3396 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
3397 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
3398 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
3399 [Richard Levitte]
3400
3401 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
3402
3403 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
3404 server and client random values. Previously
3405 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
3406 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
3407
3408 This change has negligible security impact because:
3409
3410 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
3411 data.
3412
3413 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
3414 handshake.
3415
3416 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
3417 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
3418 values.
3419
3420 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
3421 to our attention.
3422
3423 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
3424
3425 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
3426 [Ulf Möller]
3427
3428 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
3429 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
3430 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
3431
3432 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
3433 [Steve Henson]
3434
3435 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
3436 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
3437 [Andy Polyakov]
3438
3439 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
3440 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
3441 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
3442
3443 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
3444 [Steve Henson]
3445
3446 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
3447 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
3448 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
3449 certificates.
3450 [Steve Henson]
3451
3452 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
3453 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
3454 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
3455 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
3456
3457 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
3458 has chosen to ignore this fault)
3459 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
3460 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
3461 been given)
3462 [Richard Levitte]
3463
3464 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
3465
3466 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
3467 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
3468 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
3469 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
3470 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
3471 [Steve Henson]
3472
3473 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
3474 [Steve Henson]
3475
3476 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
3477 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
3478
3479 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
3480 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
3481 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
3482 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
3483 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
3484 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
3485 rather than being initialized to 1.
3486 [Steve Henson]
3487
3488 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
3489
3490 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
3491 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
3492 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3493
3494 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
3495 (CVE-2004-0112)
3496 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3497
3498 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3499 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3500 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3501 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3502 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3503 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3504 [Richard Levitte]
3505
3506 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
3507 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
3508 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
3509 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
3510 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
3511 for these cases.
3512 [Steve Henson]
3513
3514 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
3515 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
3516 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
3517 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
3518 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
3519 [Steve Henson]
3520
3521 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
3522 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
3523 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
3524 < 0.9.7.
3525 [Steve Henson]
3526
3527 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
3528 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
3529
3530 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
3531 [Steve Henson]
3532
3533 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
3534
3535 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
3536
3537 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
3538 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
3539
3540 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
3541
3542 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
3543 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
3544
3545 [Steve Henson]
3546
3547 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
3548 exiting on the first error in a request.
3549 [Steve Henson]
3550
3551 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
3552 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
3553 specifications.
3554 [Steve Henson]
3555
3556 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
3557 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
3558 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
3559 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
3560
3561 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
3562 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
3563 [Richard Levitte]
3564
3565 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
3566 blocks during encryption.
3567 [Richard Levitte]
3568
3569 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
3570 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
3571 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
3572 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
3573 certain size.
3574 [Steve Henson]
3575
3576 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
3577 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
3578 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
3579 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
3580 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
3581 parser.
3582 [Steve Henson]
3583
3584 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
3585
3586 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
3587 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
3588 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
3589 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
3590 [Bodo Moeller]
3591
3592 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
3593 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
3594 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
3595 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
3596 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
3597
3598 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
3599 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
3600 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
3601 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
3602 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
3603 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
3604 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
3605 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
3606 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
3607 [Bodo Moeller]
3608
3609 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
3610 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
3611 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
3612 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
3613 [Geoff Thorpe]
3614
3615 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
3616 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
3617 [Ulf Moeller]
3618
3619 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
3620
3621 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
3622 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
3623 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
3624 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
3625 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
3626
3627 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
3628 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
3629 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
3630
3631 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
3632 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
3633 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
3634 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
3635 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
3636
3637 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
3638 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
3639 used by default when no-err is given.
3640 [Richard Levitte]
3641
3642 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
3643 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
3644
3645 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
3646 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
3647 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
3648 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
3649 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
3650
3651 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
3652 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
3653 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
3654 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
3655
3656 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
3657
3658 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
3659
3660 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
3661
3662 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
3663 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
3664 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
3665 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
3666 root is omitted).
3667 [Steve Henson]
3668
3669 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
3670 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
3671
3672 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
3673 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
3674 [Steve Henson]
3675
3676 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3677 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3678 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
3679 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
3680 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3681
3682 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
3683 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
3684 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
3685 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
3686 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
3687 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
3688 followup to PR #377.
3689 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3690
3691 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
3692 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
3693 [Andy Polyakov]
3694
3695 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
3696 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
3697 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
3698 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
3699
3700 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
3701
3702 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
3703 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
3704
3705 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
3706 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
3707 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
3708 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
3709 client and server.
3710 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
3711 PR #377.
3712 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3713
3714 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
3715 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
3716 removed entirely.
3717 [Richard Levitte]
3718
3719 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
3720 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
3721 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
3722 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
3723 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
3724 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
3725 of libcrypto.
3726 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
3727 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
3728 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
3729 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
3730 have to be made anyway).
3731 [Richard Levitte]
3732
3733 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
3734 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
3735 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
3736 [Steve Henson]
3737
3738 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
3739 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
3740 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
3741 [Richard Levitte]
3742
3743 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
3744 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
3745 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
3746
3747 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
3748 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
3749 edit numbers of the version.
3750 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
3751
3752 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
3753 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
3754 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
3755
3756 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
3757 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3758
3759 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
3760 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
3761 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3762
3763 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
3764 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3765
3766 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
3767 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3768
3769 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
3770 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3771
3772 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
3773 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3774
3775 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
3776 overflows.
3777 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3778
3779 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
3780 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
3781 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3782
3783 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
3784 representations in a platform independent manner.
3785 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3786
3787 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
3788 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
3789 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3790
3791 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
3792 indents.
3793 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3794
3795 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
3796 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3797
3798 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
3799 full. Fixed.
3800 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3801
3802 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
3803 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
3804 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3805
3806 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
3807 unconditionally).
3808 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3809
3810 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
3811 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3812
3813 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
3814 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3815
3816 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
3817 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3818
3819 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
3820 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3821
3822 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
3823 CBCParameter.
3824 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3825
3826 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
3827 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3828
3829 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
3830 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3831
3832 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
3833 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
3834 exploitable.
3835 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3836
3837 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
3838 the 0.9.6 release series:
3839
3840 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
3841 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
3842 (CVE-2002-0657)
3843 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3844
3845 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
3846 [Richard Levitte]
3847
3848 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
3849 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
3850
3851 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
3852 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
3853
3854 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
3855 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
3856 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
3857 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
3858
3859 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
3860 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
3861 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
3862
3863 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
3864 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
3865 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
3866 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
3867
3868 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
3869 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
3870 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
3871 some local tweaks:
3872
3873 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
3874 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
3875 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
3876 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
3877 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
3878 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
3879 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
3880 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
3881 done
3882
3883 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
3884 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
3885 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
3886 [Richard Levitte]
3887
3888 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
3889 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
3890 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
3891 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
3892 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
3893
3894 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
3895 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
3896
3897 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
3898 error in AES-CFB decryption.
3899 [Richard Levitte]
3900
3901 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
3902 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
3903 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
3904 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
3905 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
3906 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
3907 [Steve Henson]
3908
3909 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
3910 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
3911 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
3912 [Steve Henson]
3913
3914 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
3915 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
3916 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3917
3918 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
3919 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
3920 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
3921 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
3922 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
3923 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
3924 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
3925 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3926
3927 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
3928 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
3929 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
3930 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
3931 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
3932 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
3933 [Steve Henson]
3934
3935 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
3936 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
3937 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
3938 declaration has been changed from
3939 int (*cb)()
3940 into
3941 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
3942 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
3943 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
3944 has been changed into
3945 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
3946
3947 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
3948 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
3949 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
3950
3951 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
3952 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
3953
3954 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
3955 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
3956 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
3957 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
3958 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
3959 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
3960 always load it have also been added.
3961 [Steve Henson]
3962
3963 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
3964 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
3965 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
3966
3967 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
3968
3969 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
3970 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
3971 because it couldn't be used for anything.
3972
3973 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
3974 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
3975 command line option can be used to specify an
3976 alternative file.
3977 [Steve Henson]
3978
3979 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
3980 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
3981 [Steve Henson]
3982
3983 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
3984 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
3985 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
3986 [Steve Henson]
3987
3988 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
3989 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
3990 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
3991 to work with the new engine framework.
3992 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
3993
3994 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
3995 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
3996 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
3997 to work with the new engine framework.
3998 [Richard Levitte]
3999
4000 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4001 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4002 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4003
4004 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4005 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4006
4007 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4008 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4009 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4010 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4011 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4012 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4013
4014 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4015 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4016
4017 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4018 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4019
4020 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4021 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4022 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4023 [Ben Laurie]
4024
4025 *) Add new functions
4026 ERR_peek_last_error
4027 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4028 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4029 These are similar to
4030 ERR_peek_error
4031 ERR_peek_error_line
4032 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4033 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4034 still in the error queue.
4035 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4036
4037 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4038 like:
4039 default_algorithms = ALL
4040 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4041 [Steve Henson]
4042
4043 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4044 [Steve Henson]
4045
4046 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4047 [Steve Henson]
4048
4049 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4050 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4051 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4052 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4053
4054 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4055 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4056
4057 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4058 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4059
4060 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4061 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4062 [Bodo Moeller]
4063
4064 *) New functions/macros
4065
4066 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4067 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4068 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4069 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4070
4071 to request calling a callback function
4072
4073 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4074 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4075
4076 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4077 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4078 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4079 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4080 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4081 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4082 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4083 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4084 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4085 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4086
4087 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4088 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4089 [Bodo Moeller]
4090
4091 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4092 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4093 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4094 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4095 the configuration scripts.
4096
4097 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4098 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4099 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4100
4101 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4102 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4103
4104 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4105 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4106 when reusing an existing buffer.
4107 [Bodo Moeller]
4108
4109 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4110 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4111 [Steve Henson]
4112
4113 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4114 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4115 [Ben Laurie]
4116
4117 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4118 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4119 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4120 has the same effect.
4121 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4122
4123 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4124 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4125 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4126 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4127 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4128 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4129 exception.
4130
4131 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4132 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4133 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4134 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4135
4136 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4137 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4138 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4139 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4140
4141 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4142 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4143 won't work.
4144
4145 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4146 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4147 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4148 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4149 default), and then completely removed.
4150 [Richard Levitte]
4151
4152 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4153 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4154 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4155 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4156 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4157 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4158 particular extension is supported.
4159 [Steve Henson]
4160
4161 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4162 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4163 [Steve Henson]
4164
4165 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4166 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4167 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4168 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4169 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4170 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4171 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4172 requires the destination to be valid.
4173
4174 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4175 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4176 [Steve Henson]
4177
4178 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4179 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4180 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4181 [Bodo Moeller]
4182
4183 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4184 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4185
4186 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4187 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4188 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4189 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4190 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4191 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4192 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4193 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4194 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4195 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4196 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4197 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4198 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4199 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4200 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4201 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4202 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4203 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4204 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4205 the new code.
4206 [Geoff Thorpe]
4207
4208 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4209 [Steve Henson]
4210
4211 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4212 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4213 become part of libeay.num as well.
4214 [Richard Levitte]
4215
4216 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4217 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4218 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4219 false once a handshake has been completed.
4220 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4221 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4222 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4223 client has followed the request.)
4224 [Bodo Moeller]
4225
4226 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4227 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4228 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4229 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4230
4231 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4232 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4233 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4234 [Bodo Moeller]
4235
4236 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4237 [Steve Henson]
4238
4239 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4240 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4241 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4242 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4243
4244 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4245 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4246 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4247
4248 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4249 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4250 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4251 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4252 [Geoff Thorpe]
4253
4254 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4255 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4256 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4257 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4258 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4259 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4260 [Geoff Thorpe]
4261
4262 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
4263 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4264 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4265 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4266 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4267 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4268 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4269 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4270 [Geoff Thorpe]
4271
4272 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
4273 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
4274 [Geoff Thorpe]
4275
4276 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
4277 [Ben Laurie]
4278
4279 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
4280 md_data void pointer.
4281 [Ben Laurie]
4282
4283 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
4284 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4285 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4286 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4287 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4288 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4289 [Ben Laurie]
4290
4291 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
4292 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4293 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4294 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4295 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4296 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4297 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4298 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4299 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4300 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4301 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4302 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4303 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4304 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4305 rather than letting it slide.
4306
4307 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4308 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4309 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
4310 [Geoff Thorpe]
4311
4312 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
4313 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4314 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4315 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4316 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4317 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
4318 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
4319 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
4320 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
4321 [Geoff Thorpe]
4322
4323 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
4324 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
4325 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
4326 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
4327 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
4328
4329 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
4330 [Geoff Thorpe]
4331
4332 *) Add EVP test program.
4333 [Ben Laurie]
4334
4335 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
4336 [Ben Laurie]
4337
4338 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
4339 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
4340 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
4341 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
4342 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
4343 [Steve Henson]
4344
4345 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
4346 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
4347 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
4348 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
4349 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
4350 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
4351 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
4352
4353 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
4354 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
4355 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
4356 Usage example:
4357
4358 EVP_MD_CTX md;
4359
4360 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
4361 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
4362 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
4363 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
4364 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
4365
4366 [Ben Laurie]
4367
4368 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
4369 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
4370 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
4371 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
4372 anyway): E.g.,
4373
4374 des_key_schedule ks;
4375
4376 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
4377 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
4378
4379 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
4380 [Ben Laurie]
4381
4382 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
4383 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
4384 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
4385 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
4386 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
4387 functions prevents this.
4388 [Steve Henson]
4389
4390 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
4391 [Ben Laurie]
4392
4393 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
4394 correct _ecb suffix.
4395 [Ben Laurie]
4396
4397 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
4398 revocation information is handled using the text based index
4399 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
4400 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
4401 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
4402 [Steve Henson]
4403
4404 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
4405 [Richard Levitte]
4406
4407 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
4408 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
4409 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
4410 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
4411
4412 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
4413 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
4414
4415 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
4416 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4417 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
4418 via Richard Levitte]
4419
4420 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
4421 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
4422 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
4423 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
4424 [Geoff Thorpe]
4425
4426 *) Speed up EVP routines.
4427 Before:
4428 encrypt
4429 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes

4442 [Ben Laurie]
4443
4444 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
4445 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
4446
4447 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
4448 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
4449 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
4450 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
4451 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
4452 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
4453 [Steve Henson]
4454
4455 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
4456 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
4457 [Richard Levitte]
4458
4459 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
4460 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
4461 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
4462 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
4463
4464 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
4465 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
4466 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
4467 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
4468 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
4469 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
4470 callback.
4471 [Richard Levitte]
4472
4473 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
4474 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
4475 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
4476 and interrupts/cancellations.
4477 [Richard Levitte]
4478
4479 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
4480 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
4481 [Steve Henson]
4482
4483 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
4484 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
4485 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
4486
4487 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
4488 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
4489 kind of callback.
4490 [Richard Levitte]
4491
4492 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
4493 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
4494 than this minimum value is recommended.
4495 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4496
4497 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
4498 that are easily reachable.
4499 [Richard Levitte]
4500
4501 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
4502 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
4503
4504 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
4505
4506 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
4507 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
4508 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
4509 needed for static libraries under Win32.
4510 [Steve Henson]
4511
4512 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
4513 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
4514 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
4515 [Steve Henson]
4516
4517 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
4518 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
4519 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
4520 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
4521 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
4522 internally such as S/MIME.
4523
4524 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
4525 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
4526 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
4527
4528 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
4529 applications.
4530 [Steve Henson]
4531
4532 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
4533 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
4534 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
4535 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
4536
4537 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
4538
4539 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
4540
4541 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
4542 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
4543 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
4544 handling.
4545 [Steve Henson]
4546
4547 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
4548 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
4549 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
4550 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
4551 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
4552 a window system and the like.
4553 [Richard Levitte]
4554
4555 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
4556 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
4557 [Geoff]
4558
4559 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
4560 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
4561 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
4562 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
4563 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
4564 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
4565 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
4566 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
4567 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
4568 ENGINE structure.
4569 [Geoff]
4570
4571 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
4572 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
4573 tag cache.
4574 [Steve Henson]
4575
4576 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
4577 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
4578 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
4579 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
4580 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
4581 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
4582 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
4583 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
4584 [Geoff]
4585
4586 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
4587 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
4588 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
4589 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
4590 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
4591 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
4592 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
4593 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
4594 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
4595 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
4596 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
4597 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
4598 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
4599 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
4600 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
4601 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
4602 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
4603 [Geoff]
4604
4605 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
4606 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
4607 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
4608 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
4609 internal engine_int.h header.
4610 [Geoff]
4611
4612 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
4613 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
4614 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
4615 modify their own ones).
4616 [Geoff]
4617
4618 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
4619 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
4620 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
4621 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
4622 later on via ctrl() commands.
4623 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
4624 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
4625 structural references.
4626 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
4627 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
4628 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
4629 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
4630 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
4631 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
4632 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
4633 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
4634 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
4635 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
4636 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
4637 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
4638 [Geoff]
4639
4640 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
4641 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
4642 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
4643 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
4644 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
4645 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
4646 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
4647 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
4648 [Bodo Moeller]
4649
4650 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
4651 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
4652 [Steve Henson]
4653
4654 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
4655 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
4656 [Steve Henson]
4657
4658 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
4659 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
4660 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
4661 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
4662 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
4663 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
4664 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
4665 [Steve Henson]
4666
4667 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
4668 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
4669 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
4670 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
4671 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
4672
4673 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
4674 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
4675 generator).
4676 [Bodo Moeller]
4677
4678 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
4679
4680 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
4681 operations and provides various method functions that can also
4682 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
4683
4684 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
4685 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
4686
4687 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
4688 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
4689 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
4690
4691 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
4692 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
4693
4694 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
4695 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
4696
4697 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
4698
4699 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
4700 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
4701 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
4702 [Bodo Moeller]
4703
4704 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
4705 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
4706 [Richard Levitte]
4707
4708 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
4709 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
4710 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
4711 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
4712 is 40 of more characters long.
4713 [Steve Henson]
4714
4715 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
4716 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
4717 pointers.
4718 [Steve Henson]
4719
4720 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
4721 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
4722 [Bodo Moeller]
4723
4724 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
4725 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
4726 might.
4727 [Steve Henson]
4728
4729 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
4730
4731 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
4732 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
4733
4734 ASN1 error codes
4735 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
4736 ...
4737 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
4738 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
4739 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
4740 ...
4741 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
4742 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
4743
4744 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
4745 [Bodo Moeller]
4746
4747 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
4748 suffices.
4749 [Bodo Moeller]
4750
4751 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
4752 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
4753 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
4754 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
4755 and
4756 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
4757
4758 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
4759 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
4760
4761 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
4762 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
4763 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
4764 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
4765 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
4766 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
4767
4768 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
4769 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
4770
4771 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
4772 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
4773
4774 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
4775 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
4776
4777 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
4778 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
4779 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
4780 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
4781
4782 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
4783 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
4784
4785 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
4786 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
4787
4788 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
4789 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
4790 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
4791 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
4792 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
4793 [Richard Levitte]
4794
4795 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
4796 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
4797 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
4798 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
4799 [Steve Henson]
4800
4801 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
4802 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
4803 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
4804 trust settings.
4805 [Steve Henson]
4806
4807 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
4808 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
4809 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
4810 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
4811 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
4812 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
4813 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
4814 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
4815 ocsp utility.
4816 [Steve Henson]
4817
4818 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
4819 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
4820 [Steve Henson]
4821
4822 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
4823 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
4824 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
4825 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
4826 [Steve Henson]
4827
4828 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
4829 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
4830 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
4831 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
4832 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
4833 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
4834 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
4835 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
4836 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
4837 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
4838 [Steve Henson]
4839
4840 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
4841 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
4842 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
4843 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
4844 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
4845 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
4846 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
4847 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
4848
4849 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
4850 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
4851 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
4852 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
4853 [Richard Levitte]
4854
4855 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
4856 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
4857 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
4858 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
4859 opensslconf.h.
4860 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
4861 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
4862 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
4863 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
4864 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
4865 what is available.
4866 [Richard Levitte]
4867
4868 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
4869 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
4870 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
4871 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
4872 auto incremented.
4873 [Steve Henson]
4874
4875 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
4876 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
4877 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
4878 [Steve Henson]
4879
4880 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
4881 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
4882 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
4883 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
4884 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
4885 [Steve Henson]
4886
4887 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
4888 [Steve Henson]
4889
4890 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
4891 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
4892 option to ocsp utility.
4893 [Steve Henson]
4894
4895 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
4896 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
4897 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
4898 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
4899 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
4900 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
4901 the request is nonce-less.
4902 [Steve Henson]
4903
4904 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
4905 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
4906 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
4907 [Bodo Moeller]
4908
4909 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
4910 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
4911 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
4912 [Steve Henson]
4913
4914 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
4915 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
4916 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
4917 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
4918 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
4919 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4920
4921 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
4922 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
4923 appear to exist.
4924 [Steve Henson]
4925
4926 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
4927 additional certificates supplied.
4928 [Steve Henson]
4929
4930 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
4931 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
4932 signature against.
4933 [Richard Levitte]
4934
4935 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
4936 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
4937 AES OIDs.
4938
4939 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
4940 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
4941 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
4942 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
4943 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
4944 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
4945 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
4946 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
4947 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4948
4949 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
4950 request to response.
4951 [Steve Henson]
4952
4953 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
4954 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
4955 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
4956 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
4957 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
4958 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
4959 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
4960 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
4961 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
4962 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
4963 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
4964 [Steve Henson]
4965
4966 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
4967 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
4968 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
4969 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
4970 [Steve Henson]
4971
4972 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
4973 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
4974
4975 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
4976 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
4977 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
4978 [Steve Henson]
4979
4980 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
4981 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
4982 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
4983 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
4984 <support@securenetterm.com>]
4985
4986 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
4987 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
4988 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
4989 [Steve Henson]
4990
4991 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
4992 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
4993 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
4994 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
4995 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
4996 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
4997 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
4998 <support@securenetterm.com>]
4999
5000 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5001 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5002 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5003 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5004 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5005 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5006 [Steve Henson]
5007
5008 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5009 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5010 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5011 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5012 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5013 printout format cleaned up.
5014 [Steve Henson]
5015
5016 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5017 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5018 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5019 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5020 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5021 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5022 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5023 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5024 [Steve Henson]
5025
5026 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5027 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5028 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5029 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5030 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5031 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5032 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5033 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5034 [Steve Henson]
5035
5036 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5037 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5038 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5039 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5040 section to use.
5041 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5042
5043 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5044 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5045 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5046 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5047 [Steve Henson]
5048
5049 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5050 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5051 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5052 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5053 in the index file.
5054 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5055
5056 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5057 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5058 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5059 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5060
5061 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5062 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5063
5064 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5065 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5066 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5067 [Steve Henson]
5068
5069 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5070 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5071 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5072 [Bodo Moeller]
5073
5074 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5075 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5076 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5077 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5078 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5079 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5080 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5081 functions are provided:
5082
5083 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5084 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5085 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5086 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5087
5088 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5089 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5090 extended allocation function is enabled.
5091 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5092 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5093 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5094
5095 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5096 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5097 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5098 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5099 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5100 [Geoff Thorpe]
5101
5102 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5103 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5104 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5105 be queried.
5106 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5107 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5108 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5109 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5110
5111 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5112 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5113 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5114 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5115 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5116 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5117 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5118 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5119 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5120 [Richard Levitte]
5121
5122 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5123 provide utility functions which an application needing
5124 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5125 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5126 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5127
5128 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5129 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5130 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5131 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5132 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5133 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5134 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5135 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5136 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5137
5138 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5139 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5140 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5141 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5142 [Steve Henson]
5143
5144 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5145 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5146 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5147 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5148 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5149 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5150 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5151 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5152 will be added elsewhere.
5153 [Steve Henson]
5154
5155 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5156 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5157 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5158 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5159 [Steve Henson]
5160
5161 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5162 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5163 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5164 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5165 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5166 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5167 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5168 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5169 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5170 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5171 to produce the required SET OF.
5172 [Steve Henson]
5173
5174 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5175 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5176 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5177 [Richard Levitte]
5178
5179 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5180 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5181 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5182 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5183 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5184 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5185 [Steve Henson]
5186
5187 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5188 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5189 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5190 [Steve Henson]
5191
5192 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5193 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5194 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5195 [Richard Levitte]
5196
5197 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5198 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5199 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5200 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5201 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5202 [Steve Henson]
5203
5204 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5205 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5206 [Steve Henson]
5207
5208 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5209 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5210 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5211 certifcates and CRLs.
5212 [Steve Henson]
5213
5214 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5215 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5216 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5217 [Steve Henson]
5218
5219 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5220 entries for variables.
5221 [Steve Henson]
5222
5223 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5224 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5225 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5226 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5227 [Bodo Moeller]
5228
5229 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5230 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5231 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5232 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5233 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5234 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5235 [Bodo Moeller]
5236
5237 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5238 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5239
5240 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5241 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5242 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5243 [Steve Henson]
5244
5245 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5246 print routines.
5247 [Steve Henson]
5248
5249 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5250 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5251 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5252 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5253 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5254 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5255 [Steve Henson]
5256
5257 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5258 [Steve Henson]
5259
5260 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5261 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5262 for now but they will eventually go away.
5263 [Steve Henson]
5264
5265 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
5266 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5267 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5268 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5269 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5270 has also been converted to the new form.
5271 [Steve Henson]
5272
5273 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
5274 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5275 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5276 for negative moduli.
5277 [Bodo Moeller]
5278
5279 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
5280 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5281 [Bodo Moeller]
5282
5283 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
5284 set.
5285 [Bodo Moeller]
5286
5287 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
5288 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5289 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5290 type-specific callbacks.
5291 [Geoff Thorpe]
5292
5293 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
5294 RFC 2712.
5295 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5296 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
5297
5298 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
5299 in sections depending on the subject.
5300 [Richard Levitte]
5301
5302 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
5303 Windows.
5304 [Richard Levitte]
5305
5306 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
5307 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
5308 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
5309 be handled deterministically).
5310 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5311
5312 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
5313 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
5314 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
5315 [Bodo Moeller]
5316
5317 *) New function BN_kronecker.
5318 [Bodo Moeller]
5319
5320 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
5321 positive unless both parameters are zero.
5322 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
5323 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
5324 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
5325 [Bodo Moeller]
5326
5327 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
5328 sign of the number in question.
5329
5330 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
5331
5332 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
5333 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
5334 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
5335 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
5336 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
5337 [Bodo Moeller]
5338
5339 *) New function BN_swap.
5340 [Bodo Moeller]
5341
5342 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
5343 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
5344 results on negative inputs.
5345 [Bodo Moeller]
5346
5347 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
5348 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
5349 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
5350 [Bodo Moeller]
5351
5352 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
5353 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
5354 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
5355 and add new functions:
5356
5357 BN_nnmod
5358 BN_mod_sqr
5359 BN_mod_add
5360 BN_mod_add_quick
5361 BN_mod_sub
5362 BN_mod_sub_quick
5363 BN_mod_lshift1
5364 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
5365 BN_mod_lshift
5366 BN_mod_lshift_quick
5367
5368 These functions always generate non-negative results.
5369
5370 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
5371 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
5372
5373 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
5374 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
5375 be reduced modulo m.
5376 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5377
5378 #if 0
5379 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
5380 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
5381 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
5382
5383 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5384 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5385 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5386 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5387 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5388 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5389 differing sizes.
5390 [Richard Levitte]
5391 #endif
5392
5393 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
5394 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
5395 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
5396 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
5397 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
5398
5399 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
5400 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
5401 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
5402 cause any problems.
5403 [Bodo Moeller]
5404
5405 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
5406 [Richard Levitte]
5407
5408 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
5409 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
5410 [Richard Levitte]
5411
5412 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
5413 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
5414 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
5415 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
5416 time)
5417 [Richard Levitte]
5418
5419 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
5420 [Richard Levitte]
5421
5422 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
5423 [Richard Levitte]
5424
5425 *) Add the following functions:
5426
5427 ENGINE_load_cswift()
5428 ENGINE_load_chil()
5429 ENGINE_load_atalla()
5430 ENGINE_load_nuron()
5431 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
5432
5433 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
5434 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
5435 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
5436 libraries unless it's really needed.
5437
5438 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
5439 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
5440 declarations (they differed!).
5441 [Richard Levitte]
5442
5443 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
5444 [Richard Levitte]
5445
5446 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
5447 [Richard Levitte]
5448
5449 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
5450 [Bodo Moeller]
5451
5452 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
5453 identity, and test if they are actually available.
5454 [Richard Levitte]
5455
5456 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
5457 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
5458 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5459
5460 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
5461 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
5462 [Richard Levitte]
5463
5464 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
5465 [Richard Levitte]
5466
5467 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
5468 [Richard Levitte]
5469
5470 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
5471 [Ben Laurie]
5472
5473 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
5474 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
5475 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
5476
5477 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
5478 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
5479 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
5480 different shared library filenames on each system.
5481 [Geoff Thorpe]
5482
5483 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
5484 [Richard Levitte]
5485
5486 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
5487 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
5488 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
5489 of two sections.
5490 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
5491
5492 *) NCONF changes.
5493 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
5494 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
5495 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
5496 binary backward compatibility.
5497 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
5498 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
5499 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
5500 LDAP server.
5501 [Richard Levitte]
5502
5503 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
5504 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
5505 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
5506 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
5507 this case.
5508 [Steve Henson]
5509
5510 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
5511 [Ben Laurie]
5512
5513 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
5514 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
5515 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
5516 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
5517 set.
5518 [Steve Henson]
5519
5520 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
5521 [Richard Levitte]
5522
5523 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
5524
5525 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5526 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5527 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5528
5529 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
5530
5531 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
5532
5533 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
5534 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
5535 [Steve Henson]
5536
5537 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
5538
5539 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5540
5541 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
5542 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
5543
5544 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5545 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
5546
5547 [Steve Henson]
5548
5549 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5550 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5551 specifications.
5552 [Steve Henson]
5553
5554 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5555 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5556 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
5557 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
5558
5559 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
5560 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5561 [Richard Levitte]
5562
5563 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
5564
5565 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5566 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5567 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5568 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5569 [Bodo Moeller]
5570
5571 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5572 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5573 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5574 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5575 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5576
5577 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5578 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5579 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5580 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5581 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5582 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5583 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5584 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5585 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5586 [Bodo Moeller]
5587
5588 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
5589
5590 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5591 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
5592 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5593 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
5594 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
5595
5596 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
5597 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
5598 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
5599
5600 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
5601
5602 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
5603 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
5604 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
5605 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
5606 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
5607 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
5608 [Geoff Thorpe]
5609
5610 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
5611 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
5612 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
5613 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
5614 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
5615 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5616
5617 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
5618 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
5619 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
5620
5621 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
5622 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
5623 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
5624 EVP_cleanup().
5625 [Richard Levitte]
5626
5627 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
5628 being properly terminated.
5629 [Richard Levitte]
5630
5631 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
5632 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
5633 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
5634 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
5635
5636 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
5637 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
5638 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
5639 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
5640 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
5641 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
5642 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
5643 change.
5644 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
5645
5646 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
5647 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
5648 [Bodo Moeller]
5649
5650 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
5651 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
5652 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
5653 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
5654 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
5655 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
5656 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
5657 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
5658
5659 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
5660 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
5661 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
5662 (see [openssl.org #212]).
5663 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5664
5665 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
5666 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
5667 [Steve Henson]
5668
5669 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
5670
5671 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
5672 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
5673 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
5674
5675 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
5676
5677 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
5678 and get fix the header length calculation.
5679 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
5680 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
5681 Steve Henson]
5682
5683 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
5684 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
5685 assertions could call abort()).
5686 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
5687
5688 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
5689
5690 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
5691 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
5692 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
5693 supplied buffer.
5694 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
5695
5696 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
5697 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
5698 by the selection routines (PR #130).
5699 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5700
5701 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
5702 [Nils Larsch]
5703
5704 *) New option
5705 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
5706 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
5707 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
5708
5709 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
5710 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
5711 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
5712 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
5713 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
5714 applications.
5715 [Bodo Moeller]
5716
5717 *) Changes in security patch:
5718
5719 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
5720 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
5721 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
5722 F30602-01-2-0537.
5723
5724 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
5725 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
5726 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
5727 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
5728 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
5729
5730 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
5731 happen in practice.
5732 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5733
5734 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
5735 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
5736 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
5737
5738 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
5739 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
5740 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5741
5742 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
5743 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
5744 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5745
5746 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
5747
5748 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
5749 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
5750 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
5751
5752 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
5753 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5754
5755 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
5756 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
5757 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
5758 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
5759 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
5760 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
5761 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5762
5763 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
5764 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
5765 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
5766 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
5767 [Bodo Moeller]
5768
5769 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
5770 [Bodo Moeller]
5771
5772 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
5773 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
5774 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
5775 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
5776 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
5777 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5778
5779 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
5780 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
5781 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
5782 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
5783 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
5784 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5785
5786 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
5787 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
5788 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
5789 BN_generate_prime().)
5790
5791 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
5792 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
5793 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
5794 better.
5795 [Bodo Moeller]
5796
5797 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
5798 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
5799 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5800
5801 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
5802 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
5803 when using non-blocking I/O.
5804 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
5805
5806 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
5807 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
5808
5809 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
5810 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
5811 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5812
5813 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
5814 configuration for the versions before that.
5815 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
5816
5817 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
5818 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
5819 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
5820 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
5821 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5822
5823 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
5824 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
5825 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
5826 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5827
5828 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
5829 value is 0.
5830 [Richard Levitte]
5831
5832 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
5833 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5834 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5835
5836 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
5837 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
5838
5839 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
5840 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
5841 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
5842 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
5843 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
5844 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
5845 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
5846 session cache.
5847
5848 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
5849 using a local variable.
5850 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
5851
5852 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
5853 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
5854 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5855
5856 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
5857 [Richard Levitte]
5858
5859 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
5860 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
5861
5862 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
5863 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
5864 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
5865
5866 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
5867
5868 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
5869 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
5870 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
5871 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
5872 [Bodo Moeller]
5873
5874 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
5875 present.
5876 [Steve Henson]
5877
5878 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
5879 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
5880 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
5881 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
5882 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
5883
5884 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
5885 returns early because it has nothing to do.
5886 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5887
5888 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5889 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
5890 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5891
5892 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5893 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
5894 (Use engine 'keyclient')
5895 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
5896
5897 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
5898 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
5899 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
5900 modules).
5901 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
5902
5903 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5904 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
5905 from 0.9.7.
5906 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
5907
5908 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5909 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
5910 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5911 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
5912
5913 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5914 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
5915 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5916 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
5917
5918 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
5919 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
5920
5921 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
5922 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
5923 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
5924 [Bodo Moeller]
5925
5926 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
5927 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
5928 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
5929 become invalid.
5930 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
5931
5932 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
5933 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
5934 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
5935 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
5936 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
5937 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
5938 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
5939 [Bodo Moeller]
5940
5941 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
5942 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
5943 one of the SSL handshake functions.
5944 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
5945
5946 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
5947 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
5948 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
5949 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
5950 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
5951 the client will at least see that alert.
5952 [Bodo Moeller]
5953
5954 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
5955 correctly.
5956 [Bodo Moeller]
5957
5958 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
5959 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
5960 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5961
5962 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
5963 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
5964 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
5965 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
5966 HelloRequest.
5967
5968 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
5969 before just sending a HelloRequest.
5970 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
5971
5972 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
5973 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
5974 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
5975 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
5976 may leak via logfiles.)
5977
5978 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
5979 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
5980 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
5981 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
5982 the legal range.
5983 [Bodo Moeller]
5984
5985 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
5986 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5987 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5988
5989 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
5990 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
5991 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
5992 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
5993 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
5994 [Bodo Moeller]
5995
5996 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
5997 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
5998
5999 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6000 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6001 followed by modular reduction.
6002 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6003
6004 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6005 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6006 [Bodo Moeller]
6007
6008 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6009 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6010 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6011 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6012 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6013
6014 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6015 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6016
6017 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6018 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6019 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6020
6021 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6022 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6023 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6024 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6025 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6026 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6027 automatically.
6028 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6029
6030 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6031 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6032 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6033 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6034 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6035
6036 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6037 [Andy Polyakov]
6038
6039 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6040 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6041 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6042 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6043 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6044 to allow the necessary settings.
6045 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6046
6047 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6048 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6049 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6050 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6051 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6052
6053 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6054 dh->length and always used
6055
6056 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6057
6058 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6059 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6060 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6061 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6062 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6063 dh->length.
6064
6065 So switch back to
6066
6067 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6068
6069 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6070 otherwise.
6071 [Bodo Moeller]
6072
6073 *) In
6074
6075 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6076 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6077 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6078 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6079
6080 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6081 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6082 always reject numbers >= n.
6083 [Bodo Moeller]
6084
6085 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6086 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6087 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6088 variable) is not atomic.
6089 [Bodo Moeller]
6090
6091 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6092 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6093 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6094 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6095
6096 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6097 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6098
6099 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6100 little-endian MIPS.
6101 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6102
6103 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6104 [Richard Levitte]
6105
6106 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6107
6108 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6109 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6110 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6111 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6112 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6113 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6114 to traverse all of 'state'.
6115
6116 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6117 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6118 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6119
6120 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6121 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6122
6123 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6124 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6125 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6126 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6127 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6128 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6129 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6130 further strengthens the PRNG.
6131 [Bodo Moeller]
6132
6133 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6134 [Andy Polyakov]
6135
6136 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6137 an error message in this case.
6138 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6139
6140 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6141 [Steve Henson]
6142
6143 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6144 positive and less than q.
6145 [Bodo Moeller]
6146
6147 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6148 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6149 that itself.
6150 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6151
6152 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6153 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6154 [Bodo Moeller]
6155
6156 *) Fix OAEP check.
6157 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6158
6159 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6160 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6161 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6162 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6163 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6164 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6165 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6166 paper.)
6167
6168 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6169 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6170 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6171 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6172
6173 Both problems are now fixed.
6174 [Bodo Moeller]
6175
6176 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6177 (previously it was 1024).
6178 [Bodo Moeller]
6179
6180 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6181 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6182 [Steve Henson]
6183
6184 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6185 [Steve Henson]
6186
6187 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6188 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6189 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6190 [Steve Henson]
6191
6192 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6193 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6194 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6195 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6196 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6197 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6198 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6199 environment variables.
6200
6201 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6202 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6203 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6204 [Bodo Moeller]
6205
6206 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6207 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6208 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6209 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6210 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6211 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6212 [Bodo Moeller]
6213
6214 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6215 versions of 'test'.
6216 [Bodo Moeller]
6217
6218 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6219
6220 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6221 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6222
6223 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6224 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6225 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6226 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6227 CygWin.
6228 [Richard Levitte]
6229
6230 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6231 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6232 amount of data available.
6233 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6234 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6235
6236 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6237 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6238 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6239 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6240 [Bodo Moeller]
6241
6242 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6243 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6244 and UnixWare.
6245 [Richard Levitte]
6246
6247 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6248 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6249 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6250 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6251 [Ulf Moeller]
6252
6253 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6254 [Andy Polyakov]
6255
6256 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6257 [Richard Levitte]
6258
6259 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6260 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6261 [Steve Henson]
6262 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6263
6264 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6265 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6266 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6267 (but broken) behaviour.
6268 [Steve Henson]
6269
6270 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6271 it when found.
6272 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6273
6274 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6275 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6276 [Bodo Moeller]
6277
6278 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6279 did not exist.
6280 [Bodo Moeller]
6281
6282 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6283 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6284
6285 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6286 [Richard Levitte]
6287
6288 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6289 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6290 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6291
6292 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6293 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6294 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6295 [Steve Henson]
6296
6297 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6298 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6299 [Ulf Moeller]
6300
6301 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6302 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6303
6304 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6305
6306 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6307
6308 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6309 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6310 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6311 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6312 [Bodo Moeller]
6313
6314 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6315 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6316
6317 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
6318 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
6319 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6320
6321 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
6322 was empty.
6323 [Steve Henson]
6324 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6325
6326 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
6327 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
6328 but the code is actually correct.
6329 [Steve Henson]
6330
6331 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
6332 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
6333 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
6334 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
6335 and leaves the highest bit random.
6336 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6337
6338 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
6339 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
6340 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
6341 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
6342 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
6343 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
6344 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
6345 [Bodo Moeller]
6346
6347 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
6348 [Ulf Moeller]
6349
6350 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
6351 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
6352 [Steve Henson]
6353
6354 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
6355 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
6356 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
6357 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
6358 headers.
6359 [Richard Levitte]
6360
6361 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
6362 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
6363 and break the signature.
6364 [Steve Henson]
6365 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6366
6367 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
6368 DH ciphersuites.
6369 [Steve Henson]
6370
6371 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
6372 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
6373 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
6374 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
6375 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
6376 [Bodo Moeller]
6377
6378 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
6379 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6380
6381 *) ./config script fixes.
6382 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
6383
6384 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
6385 [Bodo Moeller]
6386
6387 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
6388 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
6389 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
6390 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
6391 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
6392
6393 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
6394 call failed, free the DSA structure.
6395 [Bodo Moeller]
6396
6397 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
6398 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
6399 [Steve Henson]
6400
6401 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
6402 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
6403 when writing a 32767 byte record.
6404 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
6405
6406 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
6407 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
6408
6409 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
6410 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
6411 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
6412 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
6413 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
6414
6415 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
6416 [Bodo Moeller]
6417
6418 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
6419 [Ulf Möller]
6420
6421 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
6422 [Ulf Möller]
6423
6424 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
6425 [Bodo Moeller]
6426
6427 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
6428 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
6429 [Bodo Moeller]
6430
6431 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
6432 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
6433 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
6434 result of the server certificate verification.)
6435 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6436
6437 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
6438 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
6439 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
6440 [Bodo Moeller]
6441
6442 *) Fix SSL_peek:
6443 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
6444 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
6445 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
6446 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
6447 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
6448 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
6449 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
6450 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
6451 [Bodo Moeller]
6452
6453 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
6454 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
6455 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
6456 happening the other way round.
6457 [Geoff Thorpe]
6458
6459 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
6460 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
6461 [Bodo Moeller]
6462
6463 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
6464 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
6465 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
6466 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
6467 [Richard Levitte]
6468
6469 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
6470 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
6471
6472 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
6473
6474 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
6475 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
6476 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
6477 that.
6478
6479 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
6480
6481 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
6482
6483 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
6484 static ones.
6485 [Richard Levitte]
6486
6487 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
6488
6489 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
6490 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
6491 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
6492 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
6493 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
6494
6495 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
6496 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
6497 matter what.
6498 [Richard Levitte]
6499
6500 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
6501 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6502
6503 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
6504
6505 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
6506 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
6507 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
6508 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
6509 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
6510 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
6511 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
6512 by the Finished messages.
6513 [Bodo Moeller]
6514
6515 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
6516 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
6517
6518 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
6519 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
6520 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
6521 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
6522 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
6523 appropriately.
6524 [Steve Henson]
6525
6526 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
6527 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
6528 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
6529 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
6530 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
6531 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
6532 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
6533 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
6534 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
6535 together.
6536 [Steve Henson]
6537
6538 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
6539 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
6540 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
6541 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
6542
6543 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
6544 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
6545 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
6546 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
6547 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
6548 the answer.
6549
6550 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
6551 been tested well enough.
6552 [Richard Levitte]
6553
6554 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
6555 it can return incorrect results.
6556 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
6557 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
6558 [Bodo Moeller]
6559
6560 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
6561 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
6562 include zero length content when signing messages.
6563 [Steve Henson]
6564
6565 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
6566 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
6567 [Bodo Möller]
6568
6569 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
6570 [Richard Levitte]
6571
6572 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
6573 wrong sign.
6574 [Ulf Möller]
6575
6576 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
6577 packages. The default package contains applications, application
6578 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
6579 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
6580 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
6581 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
6582 [Richard Levitte]
6583
6584 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
6585 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6586
6587 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
6588 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
6589
6590 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
6591 random number < q in the DSA library.
6592 [Ulf Möller]
6593
6594 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
6595 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
6596 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
6597 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
6598 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
6599 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
6600 just makes things more complicated.)
6601 [Bodo Moeller]
6602
6603 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
6604 from EGD.
6605 [Ben Laurie]
6606
6607 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
6608 work better on such systems.
6609 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
6610
6611 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
6612 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
6613 keyid to the certificates aux info.
6614 [Steve Henson]
6615
6616 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
6617 if there was more than one signature.
6618 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
6619
6620 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
6621 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
6622 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
6623 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
6624 [Richard Levitte]
6625
6626 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
6627 rather than always using the current time.
6628 [Steve Henson]
6629
6630 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
6631 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
6632 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
6633 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
6634 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
6635 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
6636
6637 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
6638 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
6639
6640 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
6641
6642 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
6643 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
6644 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
6645 the same hash value.
6646
6647 As a result various functions (which were all internal
6648 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
6649 structure. This will break anything that messed round
6650 with X509_STORE internally.
6651
6652 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
6653 exact match, rather than just subject name.
6654
6655 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
6656 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
6657 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
6658 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
6659 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
6660 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
6661 entirely (maybe later...).
6662
6663 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
6664
6665 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
6666 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
6667 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
6668 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
6669 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
6670 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
6671 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
6672 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
6673
6674 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
6675 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
6676
6677 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
6678 to customise the verify behaviour.
6679 [Steve Henson]
6680
6681 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
6682 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
6683 [Steve Henson]
6684
6685 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
6686 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
6687 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
6688 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
6689 request is improperly encoded.
6690 [Steve Henson]
6691
6692 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
6693 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
6694 BIO_write(b, ...).
6695
6696 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
6697 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
6698
6699 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
6700 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
6701 words set to zero.)
6702 [Bodo Moeller]
6703
6704 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
6705 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
6706 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
6707 [Bodo Moeller]
6708
6709 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
6710 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
6711 BIO/fp routines also added.
6712 [Steve Henson]
6713
6714 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
6715 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
6716
6717 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
6718 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
6719 demos/state_machine.
6720 [Ben Laurie]
6721
6722 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
6723 generation and verification.
6724 [Steve Henson]
6725
6726 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
6727 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
6728 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
6729 encode and decode it manually.
6730 [Steve Henson]
6731
6732 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
6733 compile under VC++.
6734 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
6735
6736 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
6737 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
6738 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
6739 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
6740
6741 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
6742 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
6743 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
6744 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
6745 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
6746 [Steve Henson]
6747
6748 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
6749 [Richard Levitte]
6750
6751 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
6752 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
6753 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
6754
6755 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
6756 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
6757 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
6758 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
6759 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
6760 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
6761 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
6762 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
6763
6764 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
6765 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
6766
6767 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
6768
6769 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
6770 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
6771 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
6772
6773 [Richard Levitte]
6774
6775 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
6776 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
6777 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
6778 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
6779 [Richard Levitte]
6780
6781 *) MD4 implemented.
6782 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
6783
6784 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
6785 [Richard Levitte]
6786
6787 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
6788 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
6789 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
6790 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
6791 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
6792 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
6793 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
6794 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
6795 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
6796 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
6797 short or long names are found.
6798 [Steve Henson]
6799
6800 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
6801 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
6802
6803 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
6804 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
6805 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
6806 version rollback attacks was not effective.
6807
6808 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
6809 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
6810 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
6811 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
6812 [Bodo Moeller]
6813
6814 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
6815 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
6816 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
6817 [Richard Levitte]
6818
6819 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
6820 these print out strings and name structures based on various
6821 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
6822 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
6823 to allow the various flags to be set.
6824 [Steve Henson]
6825
6826 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
6827 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
6828 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
6829 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
6830 dates to be checked.
6831 [Steve Henson]
6832
6833 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
6834 negative public key encodings) on by default,
6835 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
6836 [Steve Henson]
6837
6838 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
6839 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
6840 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
6841 [Steve Henson]
6842
6843 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
6844 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
6845 [Bodo Moeller]
6846
6847 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
6848 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
6849 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
6850 are always statically linked for now, but there are
6851 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
6852 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
6853 [Richard Levitte]
6854
6855 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
6856 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
6857 Random Numbers.
6858 [Ulf Möller]
6859
6860 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
6861 DSA key.
6862 [Steve Henson]
6863
6864 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
6865 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
6866 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
6867 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
6868 form signing output easier to verify.
6869 [Steve Henson]
6870
6871 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
6874 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
6875 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
6876 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
6877 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
6878 are needed because all other string types have virtually
6879 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
6880 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
6881 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
6882 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
6883 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
6884 [Steve Henson]
6885
6886 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
6887
6888 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
6889 the syntax given in objects.README.
6890 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
6891 obj_mac.h.
6892 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
6893 obj_mac.h.
6894
6895 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
6896 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
6897 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
6898 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
6899 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
6900 consistent name changes.
6901 [Richard Levitte]
6902
6903 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
6904 [Bodo Moeller]
6905
6906 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
6907 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
6908 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
6909 environment variable, or the default random state file.
6910 [Richard Levitte]
6911
6912 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
6913 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
6914 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
6915 of safestack.h .
6916 [Steve Henson]
6917
6918 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
6919 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
6920 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
6921 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
6922 [Steve Henson]
6923
6924 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
6925 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
6926 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
6927 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
6928 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
6929 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
6930 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
6931 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
6932 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
6933 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
6934 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
6935 [Steve Henson]
6936
6937 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
6938 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
6939 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
6940 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
6941 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
6942 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
6943 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
6944 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
6945 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
6946 algorithm to openssl-dev.
6947 [Steve Henson]
6948
6949 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
6950 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
6951 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
6952 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
6953
6954 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
6955 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
6956 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
6957 omit any duplicate addresses.
6958 [Steve Henson]
6959
6960 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
6961 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
6962 [Bodo Moeller]
6963
6964 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
6965 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
6966 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
6967 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
6968 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
6969 [Bodo Moeller]
6970
6971 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
6972 software:
6973 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
6974 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
6975 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
6976 Free => OPENSSL_free
6977 [Richard Levitte]
6978
6979 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
6980 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
6981 [Bodo Moeller]
6982
6983 *) CygWin32 support.
6984 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
6985
6986 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
6987 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
6988 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
6989 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
6990 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
6991 approach.
6992 [Geoff Thorpe]
6993
6994 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
6995 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
6996 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
6997 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
6998 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
6999 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7000 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7001 [Geoff Thorpe]
7002
7003 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7004 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7005 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7006 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7007 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7008 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7009 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7010 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7011 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7012 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7013 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7014 [Bodo Moeller]
7015
7016 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7017 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7018 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7019 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7020 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7021
7022 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7023 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7024 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7025 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7026 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7027
7028 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7029 ciphers.
7030
7031 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7032 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7033 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7034 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7035
7036 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7037
7038 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7039 of macros.
7040
7041 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7042 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7043 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7044 flags.
7045
7046 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7047 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7048 any installed hardware versions can.
7049 [Steve Henson]
7050
7051 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7052 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7053 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7054 number.
7055 [Bodo Moeller]
7056
7057 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7058 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7059 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7060 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7061 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7062
7063 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7064 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7065 [Steve Henson]
7066
7067 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7068 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7069 [Richard Levitte]
7070
7071 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7072 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7073 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7074 features.
7075 [Steve Henson]
7076
7077 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7078 [Ulf Möller]
7079
7080 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7081 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7082 but no ssl client purpose.
7083 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7084
7085 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7086 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7087 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7088 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7089 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7090 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7091 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7092 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7093 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7094 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7095 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7096 [Steve Henson]
7097
7098 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7099 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7100 be obtained from the error queue.
7101 [Bodo Moeller]
7102
7103 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7104 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7105 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7106 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7107 [Bodo Moeller]
7108
7109 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7110 [Ulf Möller]
7111
7112 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7113 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7114 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7115 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7116 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7117 [Geoff Thorpe]
7118
7119 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7120 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7121 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7122 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7123 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7124 [Geoff Thorpe]
7125
7126 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7127 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7128 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7129 may not be NULL.
7130 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7131
7132 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7133 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7134 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7135 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7136 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7137 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7138 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7139 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7140 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7141 or "the configuration storage API"...
7142
7143 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7144
7145 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7146 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7147
7148 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7149
7150 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7151
7152 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7153 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7154 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7155 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7156 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7157 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7158 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7159
7160 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7161 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7162 [Richard Levitte]
7163
7164 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7165 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7166 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7167 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7168 [Bodo Moeller]
7169
7170 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7171 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7172 them in a portable way.
7173 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7174
7175 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7176
7177 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7178
7179 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7180 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7181
7182 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7183 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7184 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7185 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7186
7187 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7188 was larger than the MD block size.
7189 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7190
7191 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7192 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7193 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7194 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7195 components.
7196 [Steve Henson]
7197
7198 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7199 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7200 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7201
7202 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7203 discouraged.
7204 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7205
7206 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7207 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7208 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7209 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7210 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7211 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7212
7213 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7214 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7215
7216 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7217 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7218 [Bodo Moeller]
7219
7220 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7221 [Bodo Moeller]
7222
7223 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7224 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7225 its own key.
7226 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7227 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7228 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7229 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7230 [Bodo Moeller]
7231
7232 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7233 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7234 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7235 does not suppress any output.
7236 [Richard Levitte]
7237
7238 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7239 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7240 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7241 with all the associated security issues.
7242
7243 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7244 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7245 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7246 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7247 use the value in the default purpose.
7248 [Steve Henson]
7249
7250 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7251 and fix a memory leak.
7252 [Steve Henson]
7253
7254 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7255 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7256 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7257 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7258 [Bodo Moeller]
7259
7260 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7261 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7262 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7263 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7264 [Bodo Moeller]
7265
7266 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7267 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7268 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7269 [Bodo Moeller]
7270
7271 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7272 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7273 [Bodo Moeller]
7274
7275 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7276 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7277 which was free.
7278 [Steve Henson]
7279
7280 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7281 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7282 [Bodo Moeller]
7283
7284 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7285 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7286 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7287 [Bodo Moeller]
7288
7289 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7290 number generation fails.
7291 [Bodo Moeller]
7292
7293 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7294 [Bodo Moeller]
7295
7296 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
7297 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
7298
7299 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7300 [Ulf Möller]
7301
7302 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
7303 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
7304
7305 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
7306 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
7307
7308 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
7309
7310 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7311 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7312 [Steve Henson]
7313
7314 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7315 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7316
7317 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
7318 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
7319 [Ulf Möller]
7320
7321 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
7322 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
7323 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
7324 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
7325 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
7326 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
7327
7328 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
7329 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
7330 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
7331 for example.
7332 [Steve Henson]
7333
7334 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
7335 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
7336 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
7337 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
7338 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
7339 counter, some don't.)
7340 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
7341 counters or duplicate objects.
7342 [Steve Henson]
7343
7344 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
7345 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
7346 [Steve Henson]
7347
7348 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
7349 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
7350 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
7351
7352 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
7353 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
7354 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
7355 or -rand.
7356 [Ulf Möller]
7357
7358 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
7359 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
7360 [Steve Henson]
7361
7362 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
7363 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
7364 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
7365 cipher list.
7366 [Steve Henson]
7367
7368 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
7369 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
7370 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
7371 [Steve Henson]
7372
7373 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
7374 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
7375 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
7376 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
7377 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
7378 should work without changes.
7379 [Richard Levitte]
7380
7381 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
7382 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
7383 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
7384 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
7385 must be defined. E.g.,
7386 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
7387 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
7388 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
7389 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
7390
7391 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
7392 record layer.
7393 [Bodo Moeller]
7394
7395 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
7396 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
7397 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
7398 [Steve Henson]
7399
7400 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
7401 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
7402 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
7403 request header lines. Some software needs this.
7404 [Steve Henson]
7405
7406 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
7407 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
7408 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
7409 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
7410 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
7411 is prompted for as usual.
7412 [Steve Henson]
7413
7414 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
7415 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
7416 autodetect the card and use it if present.
7417 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
7418
7419 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
7420 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
7421 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
7422 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
7423 [Steve Henson]
7424
7425 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
7426 [Andy Polyakov]
7427
7428 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
7429 of seed file.
7430 [Steve Henson]
7431
7432 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
7433 [Bodo Moeller]
7434
7435 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
7436 [Steve Henson]
7437
7438 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
7439 bits.
7440 [Ulf Möller]
7441
7442 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
7443 [Ulf Möller]
7444
7445 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
7446 [Andy Polyakov]
7447
7448 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
7449 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
7450 [Ulf Möller]
7451
7452 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
7453 options to produce them.
7454 [Steve Henson]
7455
7456 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
7457 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
7458 [Ulf Möller]
7459
7460 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
7461 for p == 0.
7462 [Ulf Möller]
7463
7464 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
7465 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
7466 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
7467 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
7468 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
7469 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
7470 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
7471 [Steve Henson]
7472
7473 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
7474 [Steve Henson]
7475
7476 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
7477 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
7478 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
7479 [Bodo Moeller]
7480
7481 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
7482 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
7483
7484 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
7485 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
7486 [Ulf Möller]
7487
7488 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
7489 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
7490 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
7491 has already seen).
7492 [Bodo Moeller]
7493
7494 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
7495 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
7496
7497 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
7498 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
7499 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
7500 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
7501 generation becomes much faster.
7502
7503 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
7504 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
7505 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
7506 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
7507 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
7508 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
7509 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
7510 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
7511 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
7512 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
7513 [Bodo Moeller]
7514
7515 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
7516 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
7517 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
7518 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
7519 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
7520 trial division stage.
7521 [Bodo Moeller]
7522
7523 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
7524 as ASN1_TIME.
7525 [Steve Henson]
7526
7527 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
7528 [Steve Henson]
7529
7530 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
7531 [Ulf Möller]
7532
7533 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
7534 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
7535 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
7536 the comments.
7537 [Ulf Möller]
7538
7539 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
7540 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
7541 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
7542 [Bodo Moeller]
7543
7544 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
7545 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
7546 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
7547 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7548
7549 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
7550 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
7551 [Steve Henson]
7552
7553 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
7554 [Ulf Möller]
7555
7556 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
7557 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
7558 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
7559 Rabin-Miller iterations.
7560 [Ulf Möller]
7561
7562 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
7563 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
7564 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
7565 [Ulf Möller]
7566
7567 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
7568 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
7569 (instead of parameters) in future.
7570 [Steve Henson]
7571
7572 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
7573 when a new cipher list is set.
7574 [Steve Henson]
7575
7576 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
7577 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
7578 wrong.
7579
7580 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
7581 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
7582 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
7583
7584 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
7585 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
7586 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
7587 an error is flagged.
7588
7589 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
7590 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
7591 the readability was also increased :-)
7592 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7593
7594 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
7595 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
7596 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
7597 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
7598 as the root CA.
7599 [Steve Henson]
7600
7601 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
7602 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
7603 [Steve Henson]
7604
7605 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
7606 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
7607 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
7608 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
7609 instead.
7610
7611 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
7612 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
7613 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
7614 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
7615 because they handle more complex structures.)
7616 [Steve Henson]
7617
7618 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
7619 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
7620 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
7621 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7622
7623 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
7624 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
7625 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
7626 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
7627 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
7628 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
7629 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
7630 [Ulf Möller]
7631
7632 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
7633 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
7634 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
7635 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
7636 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
7637 [Bodo Moeller]
7638
7639 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
7640 [Bodo Moeller]
7641
7642 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
7643 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
7644 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
7645 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
7646 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
7647 to use this.
7648
7649 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
7650 code.
7651 [Steve Henson]
7652
7653 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
7654 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
7655 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
7656 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
7657 [Steve Henson]
7658
7659 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
7660 [Ulf Möller]
7661
7662 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
7663 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
7664 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
7665 international characters are used.
7666
7667 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
7668 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
7669 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
7670 in ASN1 order.
7671 [Steve Henson]
7672
7673 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
7674 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
7675 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
7676 request.
7677
7678 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
7679 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
7680 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
7681 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
7682 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
7683 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
7684
7685 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
7686 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
7687 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
7688 be handled by the string table functions.
7689
7690 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
7691 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
7692 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
7693 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
7694 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
7695 types at all.
7696 [Steve Henson]
7697
7698 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
7699 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
7700 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
7701 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
7702 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
7703
7704 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
7705 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
7706 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
7707 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
7708 [Bodo Moeller]
7709
7710 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
7711 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
7712 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
7713 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
7714 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
7715 SHA1.
7716 [Andy Polyakov]
7717
7718 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
7719 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
7720 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
7721 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
7722 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
7723 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
7724 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
7725 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
7726
7727 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
7728 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
7729 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
7730 [Steve Henson]
7731
7732 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
7733 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
7734 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
7735 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
7736 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
7737 support to pkcs8 application.
7738 [Steve Henson]
7739
7740 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
7741 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
7742 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
7743 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
7744 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
7745 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
7746 [Bodo Moeller]
7747
7748 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
7749 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
7750 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
7751 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
7752 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
7753 consistency.
7754 [Bodo Moeller]
7755
7756 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
7757 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
7758 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
7759 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
7760 example.
7761 [Steve Henson]
7762
7763 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
7764 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
7765 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
7766 and any application specific purposes.
7767
7768 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
7769 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
7770 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
7771 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
7772 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
7773 if the certificate is self signed.
7774 [Steve Henson]
7775
7776 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
7777 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
7778 [Steve Henson]
7779
7780 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
7781 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
7782 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
7783 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
7784 [Steve Henson]
7785
7786 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
7787 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
7788 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
7789 Update documentation.
7790 [Steve Henson]
7791
7792 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
7793 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
7794 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
7795 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
7796 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
7797 [Steve Henson]
7798
7799 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
7800 for details.
7801 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
7802
7803 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
7804 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
7805 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
7806 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
7807 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
7808 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
7809 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
7810 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
7811 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
7812 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
7813
7814 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
7815
7816 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
7817 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
7818 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
7819 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
7820 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
7821
7822 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
7823 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
7824 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
7825 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
7826 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
7827 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
7828 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
7829 request additional information:
7830 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
7831 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
7832
7833 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
7834 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
7835 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
7836 options.
7837
7838 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
7839 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
7840
7841 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
7842 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
7843 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
7844
7845 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
7846 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
7847
7848 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
7849 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
7850 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
7851 algorithm.
7852 [Steve Henson]
7853
7854 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
7855 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
7856 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
7857
7858 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
7859 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
7860 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
7861 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
7862 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
7863 included in OpenSSL.
7864 [Steve Henson]
7865
7866 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
7867 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
7868 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
7869 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
7870 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
7871 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
7872 [Bodo Moeller]
7873
7874 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
7875 PKCS12 structure.
7876 [Steve Henson]
7877
7878 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
7879 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
7880 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
7881 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
7882 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
7883 structure.
7884 [Steve Henson]
7885
7886 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
7887 need initialising.
7888 [Steve Henson]
7889
7890 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
7891 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
7892 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
7893 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
7894 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
7895 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
7896 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
7897 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
7898 be maintained manually.
7899
7900 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
7901 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
7902 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
7903 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
7904 work because people forget to call this function]
7905 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
7906 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
7907 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
7908 [Steve Henson]
7909
7910 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
7911 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
7912 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
7913 should be discouraged from doing it.
7914 [Ben Laurie]
7915
7916 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
7917 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
7918 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
7919 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
7920 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
7921 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
7922 [Steve Henson]
7923
7924 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
7925 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
7926 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
7927
7928 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
7929 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
7930 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
7931
7932 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
7933 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
7934 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
7935 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
7936 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
7937 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
7938
7939 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
7940 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
7941 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
7942
7943 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
7944 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
7945 and vice versa.
7946
7947 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
7948 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
7949 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
7950 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
7951 [Steve Henson]
7952
7953 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
7954 [Steve Henson]
7955
7956 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
7957 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
7958 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
7959 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
7960 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
7961 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
7962 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
7963 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
7964 keys so we should be OK.
7965
7966 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
7967 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
7968 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
7969 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
7970 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
7971 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
7972 stay in the name of compatibility.
7973
7974 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
7975 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
7976 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
7977
7978 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
7979 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
7980 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
7981 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
7982 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
7983 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
7984 supplied key).
7985 [Steve Henson]
7986
7987 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
7988 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
7989 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
7990 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
7991 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
7992 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
7993 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
7994 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
7995 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
7996 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
7997 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
7998 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
7999 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8000 [Steve Henson]
8001
8002 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8003 [Steve Henson]
8004
8005 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8006 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8007 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8008 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8009 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8010 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8011 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8012 openssl verify ss.pem
8013 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8014 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8015 is OK.
8016 [Steve Henson]
8017
8018 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8019 (and add it to external session representation).
8020 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8021 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8022 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8023 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8024 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8025 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8026 security holes.
8027 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8028
8029 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8030 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8031 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8032 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8033
8034 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8035 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8036 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8037 [Steve Henson]
8038
8039 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8040 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8041 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8042 code.
8043 [Steve Henson]
8044
8045 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8046 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8047 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8048
8049 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8050 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8051 certificate auxiliary information.
8052 [Steve Henson]
8053
8054 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8055 the 'enc' command.
8056 [Steve Henson]
8057
8058 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8059 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8060 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8061 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8062 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8063 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8064 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8065 [Richard Levitte]
8066
8067 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8068 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8069 [Steve Henson]
8070
8071 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8072 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8073 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8074 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8075 [Steve Henson]
8076
8077 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8078 [Steve Henson]
8079
8080 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8081 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8082 [Steve Henson]
8083
8084 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8085 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8086 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8087 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8088 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8089 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8090 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8091 using the new 'x509' options.
8092
8093 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8094 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8095 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8096 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8097 for all purposes.
8098 [Steve Henson]
8099
8100 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8101 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8102 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8103 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8104 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8105 [Mark Cox]
8106
8107 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8108 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8109 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8110 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8111 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8112 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8113 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8114 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8115 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8116 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8117 [Steve Henson]
8118
8119 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8120 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8121 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8122 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8123 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8124 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8125 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8126 [Steve Henson]
8127
8128 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8129 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8130 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8131 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8132 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8133 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8134 openssl.cnf for more info.
8135 [Steve Henson]
8136
8137 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8138 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8139 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8140 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8141 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8142 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8143 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8144 md should be large enough anyway.
8145 [Bodo Moeller]
8146
8147 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8148 for handling the random seed file.
8149
8150 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8151 ca,
8152 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8153 s_client,
8154 s_server,
8155 x509 (when signing).
8156 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8157 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8158 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8159
8160 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8161 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8162 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8163 that support '-rand'.
8164 [Bodo Moeller]
8165
8166 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8167 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8168 [Bodo Moeller]
8169
8170 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8171 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8172 [Bill Perry]
8173
8174 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8175 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8176 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8177 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8178 is suitable.
8179 [Steve Henson]
8180
8181 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8182 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8183 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8184 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8185 [Steve Henson]
8186
8187 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8188 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8189 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8190 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8191 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8192 print out all the purposes.
8193 [Steve Henson]
8194
8195 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8196 functions.
8197 [Steve Henson]
8198
8199 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8200 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8201 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8202 single function call.
8203 [Steve Henson]
8204
8205 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8206 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8207 [Andy Polyakov]
8208
8209 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8210 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8211 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8212 [Steve Henson]
8213
8214 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8215 when producing the local key id.
8216 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8217
8218 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8219 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8220 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8221 "server.pem".
8222 [Steve Henson]
8223
8224 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8225 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8226 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8227 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8228 [Steve Henson]
8229
8230 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8231 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8232 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8233 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8234
8235 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8236 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8237 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8238 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8239
8240 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8241 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8242 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8243 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8244 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8245 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8246 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8247 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8248 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8249 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8250 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8251 trivial: move one line.
8252 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8253
8254 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8255 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8256 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8257 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8258 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8259 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8260 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8261 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8262 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8263 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8264 with an event loop for example.
8265 [Steve Henson]
8266
8267 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8268 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8269 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8270 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8271 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8272 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8273 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8274 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8275 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8276 [Steve Henson]
8277
8278 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8279 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8280 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
8281 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
8282 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8283 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8284 [Steve Henson]
8285
8286 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8287 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8288 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8289 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8290
8291 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8292 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8293 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8294 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8295 key generation.
8296 [Steve Henson]
8297
8298 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
8299 (still largely untested)
8300 [Bodo Moeller]
8301
8302 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8303 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8304 [Steve Henson]
8305
8306 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8307 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8308 [Steve Henson]
8309
8310 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8311 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8312 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8313 [Bodo Moeller]
8314
8315 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8316 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8317 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
8318 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
8319 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
8320 [Steve Henson]
8321
8322 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
8323 [Andy Polyakov]
8324
8325 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
8326 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
8327 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
8328 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
8329 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
8330 in ca.
8331 [Steve Henson]
8332
8333 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
8334 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
8335 1.OU="Unit name 1"
8336 2.OU="Unit name 2"
8337 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
8338 [Steve Henson]
8339
8340 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
8341 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
8342 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
8343 are otherwise ignored at present.
8344 [Steve Henson]
8345
8346 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
8347 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
8348 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
8349 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
8350 copied until the next read.
8351 [Steve Henson]
8352
8353 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
8354 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
8355 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
8356 [Steve Henson]
8357
8358 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
8359 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
8360 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
8361 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
8362 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
8363 associated functions.
8364 [Steve Henson]
8365
8366 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
8367 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
8368 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
8369 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
8370 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
8371 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
8372 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
8373 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
8374 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
8375 memory BIOs.
8376 [Steve Henson]
8377
8378 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
8379 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
8380 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
8381 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
8382 [Bodo Moeller]
8383
8384 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
8385 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
8386 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
8387 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
8388 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
8389 functionality.
8390 [Steve Henson]
8391
8392 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
8393 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
8394 under Win32.
8395 [Steve Henson]
8396
8397 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
8398 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
8399 extensions to be obtained and added.
8400 [Steve Henson]
8401
8402 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
8403 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
8404 [Bodo Moeller]
8405
8406 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
8407
8408 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8409 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8410
8411 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
8412 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
8413
8414 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
8415 program.
8416 [Steve Henson]
8417
8418 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
8419 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
8420 DH parameters contain its length).
8421
8422 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
8423 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
8424 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
8425 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
8426 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
8427 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
8428 utter importance to use
8429 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8430 or
8431 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8432 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
8433 attacks may become possible!
8434 [Bodo Moeller]
8435
8436 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
8437 [Bodo Moeller]
8438
8439 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
8440 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
8441 [Steve Henson]
8442
8443 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
8444 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
8445 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
8446 or long name.
8447 [Steve Henson]
8448
8449 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
8450 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
8451 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
8452 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
8453 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
8454 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
8455 private key operations.
8456 [Steve Henson]
8457
8458 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
8459 [Andy Polyakov]
8460
8461 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
8462 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
8463 to
8464 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
8465 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
8466 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
8467 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
8468 the password callback is called.
8469 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
8470
8471 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
8472
8473 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
8474 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
8475 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
8476 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
8477 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
8478 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
8479 this will work.
8480
8481 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
8482 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
8483 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
8484 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
8485 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
8486 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
8487 [Bodo Moeller]
8488
8489 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
8490 [Andy Polyakov]
8491
8492 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
8493 delete an unused file.
8494 [Ulf Möller]
8495
8496 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
8497 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
8498 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
8499 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
8500 [Steve Henson]
8501
8502 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
8503 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
8504 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
8505 of an error.
8506 [Bodo Moeller]
8507
8508 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
8509 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
8510 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8511
8512 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
8513 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
8514 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
8515 comparison" warnings.
8516 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
8517 [Steve Henson]
8518
8519 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
8520 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
8521 derived keys are printed to stderr.
8522 [Steve Henson]
8523
8524 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
8525 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
8526
8527 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
8528 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
8529
8530 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
8531 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
8532 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
8533
8534 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
8535 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
8536 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
8537 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
8538 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
8539 this bug.
8540 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
8541
8542 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
8543 The interface is as follows:
8544 Applications can use
8545 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
8546 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
8547 "off" is now the default.
8548 The library internally uses
8549 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
8550 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
8551 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
8552
8553 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
8554 even the default) are now avoided.
8555
8556 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
8557 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
8558 than just having a counter.
8559
8560 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
8561
8562 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
8563 extensions.
8564 [Bodo Moeller]
8565
8566 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
8567 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
8568 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
8569 Initial "mode" flags are:
8570
8571 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
8572 a single record has been written.
8573 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
8574 retries use the same buffer location.
8575 (But all of the contents must be
8576 copied!)
8577 [Bodo Moeller]
8578
8579 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
8580 worked.
8581
8582 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
8583 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
8584
8585 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
8586 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
8587 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
8588 [Steve Henson]
8589
8590 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
8591 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
8592 test programs.
8593 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
8594
8595 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
8596 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
8597 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
8598 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
8599 point to the end.
8600 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
8601 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
8602
8603 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
8604 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
8605 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
8606 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
8607 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
8608 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
8609 [Steve Henson]
8610
8611 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
8612 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
8613 necessary function names.
8614 [Steve Henson]
8615
8616 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
8617 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
8618 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
8619 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
8620 [Bodo Moeller]
8621
8622 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
8623 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
8624 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
8625 [Steve Henson]
8626
8627 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
8628 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
8629 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
8630 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
8631 such programs?)
8632 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
8633 need locks.
8634 [Bodo Moeller]
8635
8636 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
8637 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
8638 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
8639 [Bodo Moeller]
8640
8641 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
8642 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
8643 appropriate.
8644 [Bodo Moeller]
8645
8646 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
8647 for the encoded length.
8648 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
8649
8650 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
8651 [Steve Henson]
8652
8653 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
8654 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
8655 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
8656 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
8657 [Steve Henson]
8658
8659 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
8660 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
8661 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8662
8663 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
8664 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
8665 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
8666 unusual formatting.
8667 [Steve Henson]
8668
8669 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
8670 to use the new extension code.
8671 [Steve Henson]
8672
8673 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
8674 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
8675 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
8676 constant.
8677 [Steve Henson]
8678
8679 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
8680 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
8681 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
8682 [Bodo Moeller]
8683
8684 #if 0
8685 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
8686 [Ben Laurie]
8687 #else
8688 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
8689 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
8690 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
8691 #endif
8692
8693 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
8694 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
8695 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
8696 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
8697 [Ben Laurie]
8698
8699 *) DES library cleanups.
8700 [Ulf Möller]
8701
8702 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
8703 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
8704 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
8705 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
8706 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
8707 of v2.0.
8708 [Steve Henson]
8709
8710 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
8711 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
8712 [Bodo Moeller]
8713
8714 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
8715 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
8716 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
8717 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
8718 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
8719 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
8720 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
8721 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
8722 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
8723 [Steve Henson]
8724
8725 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
8726 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
8727 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
8728 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
8729 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
8730 value doesn't matter.
8731 [Steve Henson]
8732
8733 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
8734 support mutable.
8735 [Ben Laurie]
8736
8737 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
8738 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
8739 "linux-sparc" configuration.
8740 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
8741
8742 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
8743 [Ulf Möller]
8744
8745 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
8746 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
8747 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8748
8749 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
8750 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8751
8752 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
8753 [Ben Laurie]
8754
8755 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
8756 [Ben Laurie]
8757
8758 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
8759 [Ben Laurie]
8760
8761 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
8762 [Bodo Moeller]
8763
8764
8765 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
8766
8767 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
8768
8769 *) Updated some demos.
8770 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
8771
8772 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
8773 [Wu Zhigang]
8774
8775 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
8776 [Steve Henson]
8777
8778 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
8779 [Steve Henson]
8780
8781 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
8782 instead of using a fixed path.
8783 [Bodo Moeller]
8784
8785 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
8786 [Andy Polyakov]
8787
8788 *) Improvements for VMS support.
8789 [Richard Levitte]
8790
8791
8792 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
8793
8794 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
8795 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
8796 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8797
8798 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
8799 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
8800 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
8801 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
8802 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
8803 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
8804 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
8805 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
8806 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
8807 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
8808 [Steve Henson]
8809
8810 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
8811 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
8812 [Steve Henson]
8813
8814 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
8815 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
8816 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
8817 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
8818 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
8819
8820 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
8821 [Bodo Moeller]
8822
8823 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
8824 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
8825 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
8826 [Steve Henson]
8827
8828 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
8829 [Ben Laurie]
8830
8831 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
8832 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
8833 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
8834 key elements as negative integers.
8835 [Steve Henson]
8836
8837 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
8838 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8839
8840 *) VMS support.
8841 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
8842
8843 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
8844 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
8845 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
8846 [Steve Henson]
8847
8848 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
8849 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
8850 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
8851 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
8852 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
8853 [Bodo Moeller]
8854
8855 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
8856 [Ulf Möller]
8857
8858 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
8859 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
8860 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
8861 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8862
8863 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
8864 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
8865 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
8866
8867 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
8868 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
8869 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
8870 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
8871 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
8872 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
8873 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
8874 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
8875 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
8876
8877 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
8878 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
8879 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
8880 does not influence s as it used to.
8881
8882 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
8883 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
8884 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
8885 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
8886 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
8887 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
8888 [Bodo Moeller]
8889
8890 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
8891 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
8892 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
8893 key type.
8894 [Steve Henson]
8895
8896 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
8897 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
8898 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
8899 and 'x509').
8900 [Steve Henson]
8901
8902 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
8903 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
8904 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
8905 extension option.
8906 [Steve Henson]
8907
8908 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
8909 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
8910 [Ben Laurie]
8911
8912 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
8913 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8914
8915 *) Support Mingw32.
8916 [Ulf Möller]
8917
8918 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
8919 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8920
8921 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
8922 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8923
8924 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
8925 [Ulf Möller]
8926
8927 *) Update HPUX configuration.
8928 [Anonymous]
8929
8930 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
8931 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8932
8933 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
8934 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
8935 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
8936 DER-encoded.)
8937 [Bodo Moeller]
8938
8939 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
8940 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
8941 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
8942 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
8943 now it really counts the depth.
8944 [Bodo Moeller]
8945
8946 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
8947 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
8948 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
8949 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
8950 didn't match the private key).
8951
8952 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
8953 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
8954 connection using the SSL_CTX).
8955 [Bodo Moeller]
8956
8957 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
8958 [Ulf Möller]
8959
8960 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
8961 David Harris.
8962 [Bodo Moeller]
8963
8964 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
8965 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
8966 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
8967 [Bodo Moeller]
8968
8969 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
8970 [Bodo Moeller]
8971
8972 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
8973 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
8974 such as /usr/local/bin.
8975 [Bodo Moeller]
8976
8977 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
8978 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
8979
8980 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
8981 [Ulf Möller]
8982
8983 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
8984 extension adding in x509 utility.
8985 [Steve Henson]
8986
8987 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
8988 [Ulf Möller]
8989
8990 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
8991 prototypes.
8992 [Steve Henson]
8993
8994 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
8995 [Ulf Möller]
8996
8997 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
8998 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
8999 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9000 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9001 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9002 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9003 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9004 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9005 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9006 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9007 [Steve Henson]
9008
9009 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9010 [Bodo Moeller]
9011
9012 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9013 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9014 [Bodo Moeller]
9015
9016 *) Fix some race conditions.
9017 [Bodo Moeller]
9018
9019 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9020 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9021 [Steve Henson]
9022
9023 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9024 [Ulf Möller]
9025
9026 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9027 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9028 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9029 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9030
9031 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9032 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9033
9034 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9035 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9036 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9037
9038 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9039 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9040
9041 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9042 [Ulf Möller]
9043
9044 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9045 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9046
9047 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9048 [Ulf Möller]
9049
9050 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9051 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9052
9053 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9054 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9055 [Steve Henson]
9056
9057 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9058 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9059 [Ben Laurie]
9060
9061 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9062 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9063 [Steve Henson]
9064
9065 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9066 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9067 [Steve Henson]
9068
9069 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9070 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9071 [Steve Henson]
9072
9073 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9074 support typesafe stack.
9075 [Steve Henson]
9076
9077 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9078 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9079
9080 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9081 old X509V3 handling code.
9082 [Steve Henson]
9083
9084 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9085 [Ulf Möller]
9086
9087 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9088 [Bodo Moeller]
9089
9090 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9091 [Ben Laurie]
9092
9093 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9094 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9095
9096 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9097 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9098 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9099 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9100 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9101 [Ben Laurie]
9102
9103 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9104 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9105 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9106 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9107 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9108
9109 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9110 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9111 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9112 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9113
9114 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9115 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9116 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9117 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9118
9119 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9120 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9121 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9122 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9123 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9124 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9125 [Bodo Moeller]
9126
9127 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9128 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9129 [Bodo Moeller]
9130
9131 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9132 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9133 [Ulf Möller]
9134
9135 *) Tweaks to Configure
9136 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9137
9138 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9139 yet...
9140 [Steve Henson]
9141
9142 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9143 [Ulf Möller]
9144
9145 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9146 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9147 [Ulf Möller]
9148
9149 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9150 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9151 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9152 [Bodo Moeller]
9153
9154 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9155 [Bodo Moeller]
9156
9157 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9158 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9159 [Steve Henson]
9160
9161 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9162 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9163 to library startup routines.
9164 [Steve Henson]
9165
9166 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9167 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9168 codes along the way.
9169 [Steve Henson]
9170
9171 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9172 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9173 objects to objects.h
9174 [Steve Henson]
9175
9176 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9177 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9178 [Steve Henson]
9179
9180 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9181 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9182
9183 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9184 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9185 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9186
9187 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9188 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9189 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9190
9191 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9192 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9193 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9194
9195
9196 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9197
9198 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9199 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9200 [Ben Laurie]
9201
9202 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9203 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9204 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9205 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9206 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9207
9208 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9209 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9210 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9211 document.
9212 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9213
9214 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9215 Malloc, Free.
9216 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9217
9218 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9219 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9220
9221 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9222 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9223 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9224 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9225
9226 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9227 [Ben Laurie]
9228
9229 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9230 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9231 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9232 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9233 [Steve Henson]
9234
9235 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9236 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9237 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9238 [Steve Henson]
9239
9240 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9241 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9242 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9243 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9244 installed as `perl').
9245 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9246
9247 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9248 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9249
9250 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9251 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9252 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9253 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9254 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9255 [Steve Henson]
9256
9257 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9258 [Ben Laurie]
9259
9260 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9261 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9262 is horrible: I feel ill....
9263 [Steve Henson]
9264
9265 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9266 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9267 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9268 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
9269 [Steve Henson]
9270
9271 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9272 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9273
9274 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9275 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9276 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9277 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9278
9279 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9280 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9281 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9282 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9283 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9284 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9285 openssl_bio.xs.
9286 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9287
9288 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9289 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9290
9291 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9292 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9293
9294 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
9295 [Ben Laurie]
9296
9297 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9298 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9299 in CRLs.
9300 [Steve Henson]
9301
9302 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9303 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9304 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9305 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9306 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9307 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9308 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9309 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9310 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9311 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9312 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9313
9314 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9315 [Ben Laurie]
9316
9317 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
9318 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
9319 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
9320 for linking it into DSOs.
9321 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9322
9323 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
9324 Fixed.
9325 [Ben Laurie]
9326
9327 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
9328 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
9329 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
9330 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
9331 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
9332 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9333
9334 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
9335 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
9336 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
9337 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
9338 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
9339 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
9340 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9341
9342 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
9343 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
9344 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
9345 encryption.
9346 [Ben Laurie]
9347
9348 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
9349 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
9350 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
9351 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
9352 [Steve Henson]
9353
9354 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
9355 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
9356 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
9357 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
9358 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
9359 field as blank.
9360 [Steve Henson]
9361
9362 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
9363 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
9364 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
9365 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
9366 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9367
9368 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
9369 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
9370 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9371
9372 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
9373 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9374
9375 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
9376 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
9377 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
9378 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
9379 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
9380 [Steve Henson]
9381
9382 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
9383 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
9384 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
9385 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
9386 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
9387 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
9388 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
9389 [Ben Laurie]
9390
9391 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
9392 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
9393 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
9394 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
9395 [Ben Laurie]
9396
9397 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
9398 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
9399
9400 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
9401 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
9402 [Steve Henson]
9403
9404 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
9405 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
9406 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
9407 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
9408 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
9409 (e.g. s_server).
9410 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
9411 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
9412 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
9413 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
9414 no way to reconfigure them.
9415 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
9416 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
9417 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
9418 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
9419 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
9420 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9421
9422 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
9423 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
9424 recognized by the users.
9425 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9426
9427 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
9428 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
9429 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
9430 already masked variable.
9431 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9432
9433 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
9434 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9435
9436 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
9437 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
9438 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
9439 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9440
9441 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
9442 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
9443 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9444
9445 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
9446 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
9447 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
9448 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
9449 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
9450 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
9451 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
9452 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
9453 now, too.
9454 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9455
9456 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
9457 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
9458 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9459
9460 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
9461 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
9462 config file.
9463 [Steve Henson]
9464
9465 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
9466 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9467
9468 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
9469 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
9470 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
9471 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
9472 [Ben Laurie]
9473
9474 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
9475 [Steve Henson]
9476
9477 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
9478 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9479
9480 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
9481 [Ben Laurie]
9482
9483 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
9484 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
9485 [Steve Henson]
9486
9487 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
9488 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
9489 [Steve Henson]
9490
9491 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
9492 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
9493 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
9494 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
9495 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
9496 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
9497 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
9498 Ben Laurie]
9499
9500 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
9501 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9502
9503 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
9504 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
9505 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
9506 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
9507 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9508
9509 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
9510 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
9511 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
9512 [Steve Henson]
9513
9514 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
9515 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
9516 an example.
9517 [Steve Henson]
9518
9519 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
9520 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
9521 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9522
9523 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
9524 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
9525 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
9526 build instructions.
9527 [Steve Henson]
9528
9529 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
9530 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
9531 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
9532 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
9533 [Steve Henson]
9534
9535 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
9536 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
9537 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
9538 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
9539 [Ben Laurie]
9540
9541 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
9542 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
9543 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
9544 so it wasn't spotted.
9545 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
9546
9547 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
9548 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
9549 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
9550 vectors if you have them.
9551 [Ben Laurie]
9552
9553 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
9554 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
9555 [Ben Laurie]
9556
9557 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
9558 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
9559 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
9560 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
9561 If you do a:
9562 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
9563 it will update them.
9564 [Steve Henson]
9565
9566 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
9567 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
9568 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
9569 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
9570 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
9571 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
9572 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
9573 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9574
9575 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
9576 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
9577 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
9578 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
9579 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
9580 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
9581 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
9582 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
9583 the crypto/md/ stuff).
9584 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9585
9586 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
9587 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
9588 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
9589 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
9590 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
9591 [Steve Henson]
9592
9593 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
9594 INTEGER code.
9595 [Steve Henson]
9596
9597 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
9598 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9599
9600 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
9601 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9602
9603 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
9604 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
9605 [Ben Laurie]
9606
9607 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
9608 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
9609
9610 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
9611 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
9612
9613 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
9614 [Steve Henson]
9615
9616 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
9617 few typos.
9618 [Steve Henson]
9619
9620 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
9621 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
9622 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
9623 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9624
9625 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9626 [Steve Henson]
9627
9628 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9629 [Steve Henson]
9630
9631 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
9632 [Steve Henson]
9633
9634 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
9635 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
9636 [Steve Henson]
9637
9638 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
9639 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
9640 CA extensions.
9641 [Steve Henson]
9642
9643 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
9644 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
9645 [Steve Henson]
9646
9647 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
9648 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
9649 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
9650 [Steve Henson]
9651
9652 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
9653 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
9654 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
9655 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
9656 properly to be processed.
9657 [Steve Henson]
9658
9659 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
9660 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
9661 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
9662 [Ben Laurie]
9663
9664 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
9665 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
9666
9667 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
9668 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
9669 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
9670 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
9671 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
9672 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
9673 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
9674 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
9675 or delete all the .err files.
9676 [Steve Henson]
9677
9678 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
9679 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
9680 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
9681 to regenerate it if needed.
9682 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
9683 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
9684
9685 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
9686 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9687
9688 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
9689 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
9690 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
9691 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
9692 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
9693 [Steve Henson]
9694
9695 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
9696 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9697
9698 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
9699 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
9700
9701 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
9702 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
9703 error, but didn't set one).
9704 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
9705
9706 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
9707 [Ben Laurie]
9708
9709 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
9710 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
9711 [Steve Henson]
9712
9713 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
9714 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
9715
9716 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
9717 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
9718 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
9719 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
9720 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
9721 OID is not part of the table.
9722 [Steve Henson]
9723
9724 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
9725 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
9726 [Ben Laurie]
9727
9728 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
9729 [Ben Laurie]
9730
9731 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
9732 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
9733 was "1234").
9734 [Steve Henson]
9735
9736 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
9737 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
9738
9739 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
9740 NULL pointers.
9741 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
9742
9743 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
9744 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9745
9746 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
9747 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9748
9749 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
9750 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
9751
9752 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
9753 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
9754 [Ben Laurie]
9755
9756 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
9757 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
9758 [Steve Henson]
9759
9760 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
9761 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9762
9763 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
9764 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9765
9766 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
9767 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9768
9769 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
9770 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9771
9772 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
9773 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
9774 unused in the certificate verification process.
9775 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9776
9777 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
9778 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
9779 [Steve Henson]
9780
9781 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
9782 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
9783 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
9784
9785 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
9786 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
9787 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
9788 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
9789 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
9790
9791 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
9792 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
9793 [Steve Henson]
9794
9795 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
9796 [Steve Henson]
9797
9798 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
9799 [Paul Sutton]
9800
9801 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
9802 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
9803
9804 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
9805 [Ben Laurie]
9806
9807 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
9808 [Ben Laurie]
9809
9810 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
9811 [Ben Laurie]
9812
9813 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
9814 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
9815 other error libraries.
9816 [Steve Henson]
9817
9818 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
9819 [Steve Henson]
9820
9821 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
9822 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
9823 be read in.
9824 [Steve Henson]
9825
9826 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
9827 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
9828 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
9829 the new set of documenation files.
9830 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9831
9832 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
9833 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
9834 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
9835 number of arguments.
9836 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
9837
9838 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
9839 [Ben Laurie]
9840
9841 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
9842 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
9843 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9844
9845 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
9846 [Ben Laurie]
9847
9848 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
9849 nextstep
9850 ncr-scde
9851 unixware-2.0
9852 unixware-2.0-pentium
9853 sco5-cc.
9854 [Ben Laurie]
9855
9856 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
9857 before they are needed.
9858 [Ben Laurie]
9859
9860 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
9861 [Ben Laurie]
9862
9863
9864 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
9865
9866 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
9867 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
9868 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9869
9870 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
9871 [Paul Sutton]
9872
9873 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
9874 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
9875 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9876
9877 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
9878 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
9879 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
9880
9881 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
9882 when "ssleay" is still not found.
9883 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9884
9885 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
9886 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
9887
9888 *) Updated the README file.
9889 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9890
9891 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
9892 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
9893 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9894
9895 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
9896 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
9897 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9898
9899 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
9900 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
9901 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
9902 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
9903 o removed obsolete TODO file
9904 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
9905 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9906
9907 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
9908 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
9909 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
9910 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
9911 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
9912 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
9913 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9914
9915 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
9916 [Mark J. Cox]
9917
9918 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
9919 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
9920 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
9921 summer 1998.
9922 [The OpenSSL Project]
9923
9924
9925 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
9926
9927 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
9928 [Eric A. Young]
9929
9930 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
9931 [Eric A. Young]
9932
9933 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
9934 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
9935 [Eric A. Young]
9936
9937 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
9938 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
9939 available).
9940 [Eric A. Young]
9941
9942 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
9943 binary structures
9944 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
9945
9946 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
9947 [Eric A. Young]
9948
9949 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
9950 [Eric A. Young]
9951
9952 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
9953 [Eric A. Young]
9954
9955 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
9956 [Eric A. Young]
9957
9958 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
9959 [Eric A. Young]
9960
9961 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
9962 [Eric A. Young]
9963
9964 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
9965 [Eric A. Young]
9966
9967 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
9968 [Eric A. Young]
9969
9970 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
9971 [Eric A. Young]
9972
9973 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
9974 [Eric A. Young]
9975
9976 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
9977 [Eric A. Young]
9978
9979 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
9980 [Eric A. Young]
9981
9982 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
9983 [Eric A. Young]
9984
9985 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
9986 [Eric A. Young]
9987
9988 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
9989 [Eric A. Young]
9990
9991 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
9992 [Eric A. Young]
9993
9994 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
9995 [Eric A. Young]
9996
9997 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
9998 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
9999 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
10000 [Eric A. Young]
10001
10002 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
10003 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
10004 [Eric A. Young]
10005
10006 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
10007 [Eric A. Young]
10008
10009 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
10010 [Eric A. Young]
10011
10012 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
10013 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
10014 [Eric A. Young]
10015
10016 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
10017 [Eric A. Young]
10018
10019 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
10020 [Eric A. Young]
10021
10022 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
10023 bytes sent in the client random.
10024 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
10025
