4
5 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.9 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
8 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
9 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
10 [Nils Larsch]
11
12 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
13 it yet and it is largely untested.
14 [Steve Henson]
15
16 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
17 [Nils Larsch]
18
19 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
20 when OPENSSL_NO_FCAST is set: some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject
21 their use. Safestack is reimplemented using inline functions: tests show
22 that these calls are typically optimized away by compilers so they have
23 no additional overhead. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
24 [Steve Henson]
25
26 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
27 [Andy Polyakov]
28
29 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
30 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
31 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
32 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
33 [Steve Henson]
34
35 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
36 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
37 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
38 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
39 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
40 [Steve Henson]
41
42 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
43 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
44 [Cryptocom]
45
46 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
47 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
48 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
49 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
50 [Steve Henson]
51
52 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
53 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
54 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
55 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
56 [Steve Henson]
57
58 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
59 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
60 [Steve Henson]
61
62 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
63 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
64 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
65 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
66 [Steve Henson]
67
68 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
69 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
70 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
71 [Steve Henson]
72
73 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
74 utility.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
77 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
78 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
79 [Steve Henson]
80
81 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
82 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
83 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
84 if necessary.
85 [Steve Henson]
86
87 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
88 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
89 to free up any added signature OIDs.
90 [Steve Henson]
91
92 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
93 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
94 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
95 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
96 [Steve Henson]
97
98 *) In addition to the numerical (unsigned long) thread ID, provide
99 for a pointer (void *) thread ID. This helps accomodate systems
100 that do not provide an unsigned long thread ID. OpenSSL assumes
101 it is in the same thread iff both the numerical and the pointer
102 thread ID agree; so applications are just required to define one
103 of them appropriately (e.g., by using a pointer to a per-thread
104 memory object malloc()ed by the application for the pointer-type
105 thread ID). Exactly analoguous to the existing functions
106
107 void CRYPTO_set_id_callback(unsigned long (*func)(void));
108 unsigned long (*CRYPTO_get_id_callback(void))(void);
109 unsigned long CRYPTO_thread_id(void);
110
111 we now have additional functions
112
113 void CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(void *(*func)(void));
114 void *(*CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(void))(void);
115 void *CRYPTO_thread_idptr(void);
116
117 also in <openssl/crypto.h>. The default value for
118 CRYPTO_thread_idptr() if the application has not provided its own
119 callback is &errno.
120 [Bodo Moeller]
121
122 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
123 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
124 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
125 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
126 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
127 the array representation useful in a more general context.
128 [Douglas Stebila]
129
130 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
131 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
132 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
133 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
134 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
135
136 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
137 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
138 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
139 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
140 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
141 protocol).
142
143 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
144 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
145 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
146 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
147
148 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
149 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
150 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
151 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
152 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
153
154 aECDH - ECDH cert
155 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
156 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
157
158 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
159 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
160
161 [Bodo Moeller]
162
163 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
164 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
165 [Steve Henson]
166
167 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
168 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
169 [Steve Henson]
170
171 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
172 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
173 functional reference processing.
174 [Steve Henson]
175
176 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
177 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
178 process.
179 [Steve Henson]
180
181 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
182 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
183 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
184 [Steve Henson]
185
186 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
187 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
188 application to support multiple signers.
189 [Steve Henson]
190
191 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
192 digest MAC.
193 [Steve Henson]
194
195 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
196 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
197 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
198 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
199 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
200 [Steve Henson]
201
202 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
203 new API.
204 [Steve Henson]
205
206 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
207 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
208 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
209 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
210 a no op.
211 [Steve Henson]
212
213 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
214 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
215 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
216 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
217 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
218 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
219 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
220 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
221 [Steve Henson]
222
223 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
224 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
225 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
226 between digests and public key types.
227 [Steve Henson]
228
229 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
230 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
231 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
232 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
233 [Steve Henson]
234
235 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
236 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
237 key ASN1 method.
238 [Steve Henson]
239
240 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
241 [Steve Henson]
242
243 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
244 pkeyutl.
245 [Steve Henson]
246
247 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
248 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
249 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
250 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
251 pkey, genpkey.
252 [Steve Henson]
253
254 *) BeOS support.
255 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
256
257 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
258 manual pages.
259 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
260
261 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
262 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
263 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
264 functionality for RSA.
265 [Steve Henson]
266
267 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
268 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
269 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
270 [Steve Henson]
271
272 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
273 key API, doesn't do much yet.
274 [Steve Henson]
275
276 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
277 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
278 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
279 [Steve Henson]
280
281 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
282 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
283 [Douglas Stebila]
284
285 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
286 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
287 [Steve Henson]
288
289 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
290 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
291 type.
292 [Steve Henson]
293
294 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
295 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
296 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
297 structure.
298 [Steve Henson]
299
300 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
301 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
302 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
303 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
304 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
305 of public and private key structures.
306 [Steve Henson]
307
308 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
309 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
310 [Douglas Stebila]
311
312 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
313 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
314 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
315
316 New ciphersuites:
317 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
318 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
319
320 New functions:
321 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
322 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
323 SSL_get_psk_identity
324 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
325
326 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
327
328 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
329 and response verification functionality.
330 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
331
332 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
333 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
334 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
335 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
336 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
337 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
338 server_name extension.
339
340 New functions (subject to change):
341
342 SSL_get_servername()
343 SSL_get_servername_type()
344 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
345
346 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
347
348 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
349 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
350 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
351 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
352 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
353
354 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
355
356 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
357 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
358 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
359 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
360 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
361 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
362 option.
363
364 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
365
366 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
367 [Andy Polyakov]
368
369 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
370 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
371 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
372 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
373 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
374 [Andy Polyakov]
375
376 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
377 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
378 macro.
379 [Bodo Moeller]
380
381 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
382 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
383 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
384 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
385 [Andy Polyakov]
386
387 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
388 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
389 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
390 using the maximum available value.
391 [Steve Henson]
392
393 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
394 in addition to the text details.
395 [Bodo Moeller]
396
397 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
398 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
399 handle several customised structures at all.
400 [Steve Henson]
401
402 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
403 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
404 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
405 [Steve Henson]
406
407 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
408 [Steve Henson]
409
410 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
411 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
412 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
413 [Steve Henson]
414
415 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
416 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
417 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
418 [Nils Larsch]
419
420 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
421 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
422 all fields.
423 [Steve Henson]
424
425 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
429 [NTT]
430
431 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [XX xxx XXXX]
432
433 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
434 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
435 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
436 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
437 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
438 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
439 [Bodo Moeller]
440
441 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
442 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
443 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
444 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
445 message has informed the client about his choice.)
446 [Bodo Moeller]
447
448 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
449 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
450
451 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
452 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
453 Improve header file function name parsing.
454 [Steve Henson]
455
456 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
457
458 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
459 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
460 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
461
462 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
463 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
464
465 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
466 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
467
468 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
469 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
470 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
471
472 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
473 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
474 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
475 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
476 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
477 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
478 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
479 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
480 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
481
482 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
483 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
484 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
485 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
486 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
487
488 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
489 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
490 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
491 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
492 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
493 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
494 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
495 multiple values to extend the available space.
496
497 [Bodo Moeller]
498
499 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
500
501 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
502 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
503
504 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
505 [Ben Laurie]
506
507 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
508 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
509 undesirable limitations.
510 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
511
512 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
513 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
514 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
515 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
516 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
517 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
518 to avoid potential handshake problems.
519 [Bodo Moeller]
520
521 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
522
523 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
524 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
525 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
526
527 The latter two were purportedly from
528 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
529 appear there.
530
531 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
532 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
533 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
534 [Bodo Moeller]
535
536 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
537 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
538 [Bodo Moeller]
539
540 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
541 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
542 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
543 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
544
545 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
546 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
547 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
548 [NTT]
549
550 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
551 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
552 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
553 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
554 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
555 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
556 [Steve Henson]
557
558 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
559
560 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
561 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
562 [Steve Henson]
563
564 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
565 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
566
567 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
568 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
569 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
570 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
571 [Douglas Stebila]
572
573 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
574 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
575 [Steve Henson]
576
577 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
578 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
579 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
580 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
581 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
582 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
583 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
584 can't be loaded.
585 [Steve Henson]
586
587 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
588 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
589 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
590 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
591 [Steve Henson]
592
593 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
594 under VC++ build system.
595 [Steve Henson]
596
597 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
598 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
599 [Richard Levitte]
600
601 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
602
603 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
604 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
605 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
606 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
607 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
608
609 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
610 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
611 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
612
613 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
614 [Steve Henson]
615
616 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
617 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
618 [Nils Larsch]
619
620 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
621 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
622
623 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
624 [Nick Mathewson]
625
626 *) Extended Windows CE support.
627 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
628
629 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
630 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
631 [Steve Henson]
632
633 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
634 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
635 smime utility.
636 [Steve Henson]
637
638 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
639
640 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
641 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
642
643 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
644 [Richard Levitte]
645
646 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
647 key into the same file any more.
648 [Richard Levitte]
649
650 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
651 [Andy Polyakov]
652
653 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
654 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
655
656 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
657 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
658 [Richard Levitte]
659
660 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
661 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
662 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
663 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
664 this only applies when building 'shared'.
665 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
666
667 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
668 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
669 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
670 [Steve Henson]
671
672 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
673 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
674 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
675 - add new function for parameter creation
676 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
677 BN_BLINDING parameters
678 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
679 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
680 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
681 threads.
682 [Nils Larsch]
683
684 *) Add support for DTLS.
685 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
686
687 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
688 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
689 [Walter Goulet]
690
691 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
692 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
693 [Nils Larsch]
694
695 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
696 the apps/openssl applications.
697 [Nils Larsch]
698
699 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
700 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
701 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
702 [Ben Laurie]
703
704 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
705 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
706
707 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
708 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
709
710 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
711 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
712 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
713 avoid this algorithm.)
714
715 [Bodo Moeller]
716
717 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
718 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
719 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
720 [Richard Levitte]
721
722 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
723 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
724 [Andy Polyakov]
725
726 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
727 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
728 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
729 pod file:
730
731 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
732
733 The blank line is mandatory.
734
735 [Steve Henson]
736
737 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
738 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
739 sources.
740 [Steve Henson]
741
742 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
743 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
744
745 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
746 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
747 to support policy checking and print out.
748 [Steve Henson]
749
750 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
751 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
752 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
753 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
754
755 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
756 [Geoff Thorpe]
757
758 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
759 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
760
761 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
762 implementation contributed by IBM.
763 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
764
765 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
766 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
767 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
768 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
769
770 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
771 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
772
773 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
774 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
775 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
776 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
777 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
778 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
779 [Steve Henson]
780
781 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
782 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
783 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
784 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
785 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
786 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
787 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
788 [Geoff Thorpe]
789
790 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
791 [Steve Henson]
792
793 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
794 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
795 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
796 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
797 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
798 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
799 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
800 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
801 [Steve Henson]
802
803 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
804 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
805 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
806 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
807 [Steve Henson]
808
809 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
810 syntax:
811
812 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
813 [Steve Henson]
814
815 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
816 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
817 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
818 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
819 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
820 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
821 BN_CTX's "bundling".
822 [Geoff Thorpe]
823
824 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
825 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
826 [Geoff Thorpe]
827
828 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
829 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
830 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
831 [Steve Henson]
832
833 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
834 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
835 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
836 below).
837 [Geoff Thorpe]
838
839 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
840 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
841 [Richard Levitte]
842
843 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
844 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
845 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
846 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
847 [Geoff Thorpe]
848
849 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
850 initialised value as BN_new().
851 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
852
853 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
854 [Steve Henson]
855
856 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
857 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
858 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
859 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
860 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
861 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
862 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
863 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
864 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
865 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
866 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
867 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
868 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
869 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
870 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
871
872 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
873 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
874 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
875 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
876 [Geoff Thorpe]
877
878 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
879 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
880 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
881 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
882 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
883 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
884 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
885 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
886 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
887 [Geoff Thorpe]
888
889 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
890 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
891 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
892 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
893 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
894 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
895 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
896 [Geoff Thorpe]
897
898 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
899 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
900 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
901 these have been updated also.
902 [Geoff Thorpe]
903
904 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
905 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
906 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
907 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
908 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
909 functions.
910 [Steve Henson]
911
912 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
913 structure of type "other".
914 [Steve Henson]
915
916 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
917 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
918 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
919 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
920 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
921 situation in the script.
922 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
923
924 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
925 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
926 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
927 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
928 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
929 used as premaster secret.
930 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
931
932 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
933 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
934 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
935
936 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
937 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
938
939 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
940 control of the error stack.
941 [Richard Levitte]
942
943 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
944 [Richard Levitte]
945
946 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
947 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
948 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
949 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
950 [Richard Levitte]
951
952 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
953 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
954 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
955 [Richard Levitte]
956
957 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
958 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
959 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
960 a memory area.
961 [Richard Levitte]
962
963 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
964 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
965 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
966 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
967 [Richard Levitte]
968
969 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
970 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
971 the following flags are defined:
972
973 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
974 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
975 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
976 number.
977
978 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
979 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
980 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
981 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
982 returns zero.
983 [Richard Levitte]
984
985 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
986 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
987 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
988 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
989 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
990 [Richard Levitte]
991
992 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
993 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
994 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
995 [Richard Levitte]
996
997 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
998 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
999 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1000 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1001 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1002 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1003 [Richard Levitte]
1004
1005 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
1006 req and dirName.
1007 [Steve Henson]
1008
1009 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
1010 [Steve Henson]
1011
1012 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
1013 [Steve Henson]
1014
1015 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1016 [Steve Henson]
1017
1018 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1019 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1020 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1021 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1022 default implementation more easily.
1023 [Geoff Thorpe]
1024
1025 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1026 in config files.
1027 [Steve Henson]
1028
1029 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
1030 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
1031 [Richard Levitte]
1032
1033 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1034 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1035 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1036 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1037
1038 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
1039 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1040 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1041 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1042 [Steve Henson]
1043
1044 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1045 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1046 to do it.
1047 [Richard Levitte]
1048
1049 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
1050 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
1051 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
1052 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
1053 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
1054 scalar * generator).
1055 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1056
1057 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1058 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1059 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1060 correctly.
1061 [Steve Henson]
1062
1063 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1064 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1065 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1066 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
1067 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
1068 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
1069 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
1070 linker additions, eg;
1071 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
1072 [Geoff Thorpe]
1073
1074 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
1075 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
1076 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
1077 [Geoff Thorpe]
1078
1079 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1080 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1081 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
1082 via PR#459)
1083 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1084
1085 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
1086 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
1087 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
1088 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
1089 [Geoff Thorpe]
1090
1091 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
1092 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
1093 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
1094 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
1095 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
1096 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
1097 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
1098 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
1099 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
1100 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
1101
1102 Example for using the new callback interface:
1103
1104 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
1105 void *my_arg = ...;
1106 BN_GENCB my_cb;
1107
1108 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
1109
1110 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
1111 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
1112 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
1113 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
1114 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
1115 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
1116 */
1117
1118 [Geoff Thorpe]
1119
1120 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
1121 available to TLS with the number defined in
1122 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
1123 [Richard Levitte]
1124
1125 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
1126 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
1127
1128 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
1129 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1130 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1131 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
1132
1133 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
1134 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
1135
1136 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
1137 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
1138 well.
1139 [Richard Levitte]
1140
1141 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
1142 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
1143 [Richard Levitte]
1144
1145 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
1146 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
1147 and a macro that behave like
1148 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
1149
1150 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
1151 [Nils Larsch]
1152
1153 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
1154 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
1155 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
1156 if applicable.
1157 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1158
1159 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
1160 [Bodo Moeller]
1161
1162 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
1163 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
1164 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
1165 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
1166 directory engines/.
1167 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
1168 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
1169 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
1170 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
1171 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
1172 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
1173 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
1174 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
1175
1176 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
1177 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
1178 [Richard Levitte]
1179
1180 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
1181 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
1182
1183 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
1184 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
1185 files while avoiding the low level API.
1186
1187 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
1188 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
1189 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
1190 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
1191
1192 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
1193 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
1194 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
1195 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
1196 instead of the low level API.
1197 [Steve Henson]
1198
1199 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
1200 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
1201 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
1202 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
1203 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
1204 PKCS#7 code.
1205
1206 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
1207 down to the template encoder.
1208 [Steve Henson]
1209
1210 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
1211 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
1212 [Bodo Moeller]
1213
1214 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
1215 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
1216 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
1217 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1218
1219 *) Add ECDH engine support.
1220 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1221
1222 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
1223 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1224
1225 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
1226 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
1227 [Bodo Moeller]
1228
1229 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
1230 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
1231 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
1232 [Bodo Moeller]
1233
1234 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
1235 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
1236
1237 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1238 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1239
1240 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
1241 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
1242 New EC_METHOD:
1243
1244 EC_GF2m_simple_method
1245
1246 New API functions:
1247
1248 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
1249 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
1250 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
1251 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1252 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1253 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
1254
1255 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
1256 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
1257 enable it).
1258
1259 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
1260 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
1261 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
1262 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
1263 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
1264 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
1265 various internal method names.)
1266
1267 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
1268 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
1269
1270 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1271 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1272
1273 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
1274 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
1275
1276 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
1277 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
1278 methods are undefined.
1279
1280 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1281 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1282
1283 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
1284 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
1285 length of the modulus.
1286
1287 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1288 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1289
1290 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
1291 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
1292
1293 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1294 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1295
1296 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
1297 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
1298 used) in the following functions [macros]:
1299
1300 BN_GF2m_add
1301 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
1302 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
1303 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
1304 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
1305 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
1306 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
1307 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
1308 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
1309 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
1310
1311 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
1312 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
1313
1314 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
1315 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
1316 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
1317 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
1318 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
1319 where
1320 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
1321 This applies to the following functions:
1322
1323 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
1324 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
1325 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
1326 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
1327 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
1328 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
1329 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
1330 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
1331 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1332 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1333
1334 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
1335
1336 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1337 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1338
1339 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
1340
1341 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
1342 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
1343 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
1344 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
1345 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
1346
1347 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1348 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1349
1350 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
1351 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
1352 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
1353
1354 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
1355 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
1356
1357 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
1358 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
1359 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
1360 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
1361 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1362
1363 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
1364 functions
1365 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
1366 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
1367 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
1368 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
1369 These control ASN1 encoding details:
1370 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
1371 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
1372 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
1373 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
1374 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
1375 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
1376 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
1377
1378 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
1379 functions
1380 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
1381 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
1382 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
1383 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
1384 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1385
1386 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
1387 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
1388 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
1389 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1390
1391 *) Add functions
1392 EC_POINT_point2bn()
1393 EC_POINT_bn2point()
1394 EC_POINT_point2hex()
1395 EC_POINT_hex2point()
1396 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
1397 EC_POINT_oct2point().
1398 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1399
1400 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
1401 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
1402 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
1403 EC_GROUP_get_order()
1404 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
1405 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
1406 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
1407 adding different types of curves.
1408 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
1409
1410 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
1411 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
1412 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
1413 [Bodo Moeller]
1414
1415 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
1416 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
1417
1418 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
1419 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
1420 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
1421 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1422
1423 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
1424
1425 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
1426 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
1427
1428 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
1429 library. Most notably,
1430 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
1431 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
1432 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
1433 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
1434 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
1435 extracted before the specific public key;
1436 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
1437 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1438
1439 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
1440 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
1441 function
1442 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
1443 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
1444 EC_get_builtin_curves().
1445 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
1446 accessed via
1447 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
1448 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
1449 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
1450
1451 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1452 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1453 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1454 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1455 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1456 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1457 differing sizes.
1458 [Richard Levitte]
1459
1460 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [xx XXX xxxx]
1461
1462 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
1463 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
1464 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
1465 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
1466 message has informed the client about his choice.)
1467 [Bodo Moeller]
1468
1469 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
1470 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
1471 [Steve Henson]
1472
1473 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
1474
1475 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
1476 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
1477 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1478
1479 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
1480 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
1481
1482 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
1483 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1484
1485 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
1486 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
1487 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1488
1489 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
1490 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
1491 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
1492 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
1493 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
1494 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
1495 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
1496 [Bodo Moeller]
1497
1498 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
1499
1500 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
1501 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
1502
1503 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
1504 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
1505 undesirable limitations.
1506 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
1507
1508 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:

1510 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
1511 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
1512 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
1513
1514 The latter two were purportedly from
1515 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
1516 appear there.
1517
1518 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
1519 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
1520 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
1521 [Bodo Moeller]
1522
1523 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
1524 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
1525 [Bodo Moeller]
1526
1527 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
1528
1529 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
1530 module in FIPS mode.
1531 [Steve Henson]
1532
1533 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
1534 [Steve Henson]
1535
1536 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
1537 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
1538 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
1539 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
1540 [Steve Henson]
1541
1542 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
1543
1544 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
1545 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
1546 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
1547 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
1548 the difference induced by this change.
1549 [Andy Polyakov]
1550
1551 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
1552
1553 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
1554 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
1555 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
1556 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
1557 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
1558
1559 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
1560 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
1561 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
1562
1563 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
1564 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
1565 [Steve Henson]
1566
1567 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
1568 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
1569 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
1570 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
1571 biased k.)
1572 [Bodo Moeller]
1573
1574 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
1575 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
1576 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
1577 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
1578 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
1579
1580 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
1581 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
1582 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
1583 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
1584 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
1585 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
1586
1587 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
1588
1589 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
1590 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
1591 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
1592 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
1593 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
1594 [Bodo Moeller]
1595
1596 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
1597 clients need.
1598 [Steve Henson]
1599
1600 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
1601 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
1602 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
1603 [Steve Henson]
1604
1605 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
1606 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
1607 structures constant.
1608 [Steve Henson]
1609
1610 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
1611
1612 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
1613 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
1614
1615 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
1616 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
1617 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
1618 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
1619 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
1620 some needed definitions.
1621 [Steve Henson]
1622
1623 *) Undo Cygwin change.
1624 [Ulf Möller]
1625
1626 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
1627 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
1628 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
1629 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
1630 [Richard Levitte]
1631
1632 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
1633
1634 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
1635 server and client random values. Previously
1636 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
1637 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
1638
1639 This change has negligible security impact because:
1640
1641 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
1642 data.
1643
1644 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
1645 handshake.
1646
1647 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
1648 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
1649 values.
1650
1651 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
1652 to our attention.
1653
1654 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
1655
1656 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
1657 [Ulf Möller]
1658
1659 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
1660 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
1661 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
1662
1663 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
1664 [Steve Henson]
1665
1666 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
1667 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
1668 [Andy Polyakov]
1669
1670 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
1671 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
1672 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
1673
1674 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
1675 [Steve Henson]
1676
1677 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
1678 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
1679 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
1680 certificates.
1681 [Steve Henson]
1682
1683 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
1684 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
1685 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
1686 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
1687
1688 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
1689 has chosen to ignore this fault)
1690 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
1691 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
1692 been given)
1693 [Richard Levitte]
1694
1695 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
1696
1697 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
1698 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
1699 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
1700 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
1701 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
1702 [Steve Henson]
1703
1704 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
1705 [Steve Henson]
1706
1707 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
1708 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
1709
1710 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
1711 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
1712 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
1713 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
1714 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
1715 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
1716 rather than being initialized to 1.
1717 [Steve Henson]
1718
1719 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
1720
1721 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
1722 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
1723 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
1724
1725 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
1726 (CVE-2004-0112)
1727 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
1728
1729 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1730 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1731 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1732 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1733 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1734 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1735 [Richard Levitte]
1736
1737 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
1738 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
1739 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
1740 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
1741 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
1742 for these cases.
1743 [Steve Henson]
1744
1745 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
1746 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
1747 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
1748 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
1749 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
1750 [Steve Henson]
1751
1752 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
1753 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
1754 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
1755 < 0.9.7.
1756 [Steve Henson]
1757
1758 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
1759 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
1760
1761 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
1762 [Steve Henson]
1763
1764 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
1765
1766 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
1767
1768 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
1769 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
1770
1771 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
1772
1773 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
1774 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
1775
1776 [Steve Henson]
1777
1778 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
1779 exiting on the first error in a request.
1780 [Steve Henson]
1781
1782 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
1783 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
1784 specifications.
1785 [Steve Henson]
1786
1787 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
1788 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
1789 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
1790 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
1791
1792 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
1793 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
1794 [Richard Levitte]
1795
1796 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
1797 blocks during encryption.
1798 [Richard Levitte]
1799
1800 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
1801 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
1802 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
1803 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
1804 certain size.
1805 [Steve Henson]
1806
1807 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
1808 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
1809 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
1810 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
1811 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
1812 parser.
1813 [Steve Henson]
1814
1815 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
1816
1817 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
1818 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
1819 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
1820 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
1821 [Bodo Moeller]
1822
1823 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
1824 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
1825 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
1826 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
1827 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
1828
1829 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
1830 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
1831 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
1832 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
1833 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
1834 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
1835 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
1836 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
1837 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
1838 [Bodo Moeller]
1839
1840 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
1841 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
1842 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
1843 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
1844 [Geoff Thorpe]
1845
1846 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
1847 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
1848 [Ulf Moeller]
1849
1850 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
1851
1852 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
1853 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
1854 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
1855 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
1856 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
1857
1858 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
1859 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
1860 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
1861
1862 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
1863 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
1864 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
1865 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
1866 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
1867
1868 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
1869 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
1870 used by default when no-err is given.
1871 [Richard Levitte]
1872
1873 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
1874 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
1875
1876 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
1877 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
1878 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
1879 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
1880 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
1881
1882 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
1883 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
1884 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
1885 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
1886
1887 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
1888
1889 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
1890
1891 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
1892
1893 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
1894 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
1895 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
1896 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
1897 root is omitted).
1898 [Steve Henson]
1899
1900 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
1901 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
1902
1903 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
1904 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
1905 [Steve Henson]
1906
1907 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1908 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1909 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
1910 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
1911 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1912
1913 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
1914 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
1915 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
1916 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
1917 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
1918 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
1919 followup to PR #377.
1920 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1921
1922 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
1923 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
1924 [Andy Polyakov]
1925
1926 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
1927 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
1928 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
1929 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
1930
1931 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
1932
1933 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
1934 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
1935
1936 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
1937 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
1938 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
1939 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
1940 client and server.
1941 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
1942 PR #377.
1943 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1944
1945 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
1946 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
1947 removed entirely.
1948 [Richard Levitte]
1949
1950 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
1951 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
1952 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
1953 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
1954 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
1955 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
1956 of libcrypto.
1957 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
1958 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
1959 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
1960 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
1961 have to be made anyway).
1962 [Richard Levitte]
1963
1964 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
1965 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
1966 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
1967 [Steve Henson]
1968
1969 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
1970 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
1971 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
1972 [Richard Levitte]
1973
1974 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
1975 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
1976 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
1977
1978 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
1979 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
1980 edit numbers of the version.
1981 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
1982
1983 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
1984 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
1985 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
1986
1987 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
1988 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1989
1990 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
1991 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
1992 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1993
1994 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
1995 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1996
1997 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
1998 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1999
2000 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
2001 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2002
2003 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
2004 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2005
2006 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
2007 overflows.
2008 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2009
2010 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
2011 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
2012 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2013
2014 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
2015 representations in a platform independent manner.
2016 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2017
2018 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2019 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2020 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2021
2022 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
2023 indents.
2024 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2025
2026 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
2027 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2028
2029 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
2030 full. Fixed.
2031 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2032
2033 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
2034 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
2035 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2036
2037 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
2038 unconditionally).
2039 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2040
2041 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
2042 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2043
2044 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
2045 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2046
2047 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
2048 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2049
2050 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
2051 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2052
2053 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
2054 CBCParameter.
2055 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2056
2057 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
2058 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2059
2060 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
2061 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2062
2063 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
2064 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
2065 exploitable.
2066 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2067
2068 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
2069 the 0.9.6 release series:
2070
2071 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
2072 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
2073 (CVE-2002-0657)
2074 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2075
2076 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
2077 [Richard Levitte]
2078
2079 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
2080 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
2081
2082 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
2083 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
2084
2085 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
2086 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
2087 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
2088 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
2089
2090 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
2091 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
2092 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
2093
2094 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
2095 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
2096 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
2097 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
2098
2099 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
2100 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
2101 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
2102 some local tweaks:
2103
2104 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
2105 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
2106 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
2107 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2108 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2109 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
2110 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
2111 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
2112 done
2113
2114 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
2115 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
2116 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
2117 [Richard Levitte]
2118
2119 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
2120 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
2121 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
2122 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
2123 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
2124
2125 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
2126 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
2127
2128 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
2129 error in AES-CFB decryption.
2130 [Richard Levitte]
2131
2132 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
2133 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
2134 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
2135 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
2136 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
2137 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
2138 [Steve Henson]
2139
2140 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
2141 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
2142 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
2143 [Steve Henson]
2144
2145 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
2146 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
2147 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2148
2149 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
2150 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
2151 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
2152 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
2153 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
2154 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
2155 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
2156 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2157
2158 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
2159 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
2160 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
2161 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
2162 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
2163 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
2164 [Steve Henson]
2165
2166 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
2167 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
2168 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
2169 declaration has been changed from
2170 int (*cb)()
2171 into
2172 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
2173 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
2174 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
2175 has been changed into
2176 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
2177
2178 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
2179 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
2180 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
2181
2182 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
2183 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
2184
2185 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
2186 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
2187 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
2188 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
2189 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
2190 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
2191 always load it have also been added.
2192 [Steve Henson]
2193
2194 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
2195 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
2196 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2197
2198 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
2199
2200 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
2201 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
2202 because it couldn't be used for anything.
2203
2204 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
2205 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
2206 command line option can be used to specify an
2207 alternative file.
2208 [Steve Henson]
2209
2210 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
2211 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
2212 [Steve Henson]
2213
2214 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
2215 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
2216 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
2217 [Steve Henson]
2218
2219 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
2220 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
2221 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
2222 to work with the new engine framework.
2223 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
2224
2225 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
2226 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
2227 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
2228 to work with the new engine framework.
2229 [Richard Levitte]
2230
2231 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
2232 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
2233 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
2234
2235 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
2236 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
2237
2238 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
2239 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
2240 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
2241 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
2242 FORMAT_IISSGC.
2243 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2244
2245 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
2246 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2247
2248 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
2249 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
2250
2251 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
2252 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
2253 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
2254 [Ben Laurie]
2255
2256 *) Add new functions
2257 ERR_peek_last_error
2258 ERR_peek_last_error_line
2259 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
2260 These are similar to
2261 ERR_peek_error
2262 ERR_peek_error_line
2263 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
2264 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
2265 still in the error queue.
2266 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
2267
2268 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
2269 like:
2270 default_algorithms = ALL
2271 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
2272 [Steve Henson]
2273
2274 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
2275 [Steve Henson]
2276
2277 *) New experimental application configuration code.
2278 [Steve Henson]
2279
2280 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
2281 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
2282 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
2283 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2284
2285 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
2286 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
2287
2288 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
2289 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
2290
2291 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
2292 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
2293 [Bodo Moeller]
2294
2295 *) New functions/macros
2296
2297 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
2298 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2299 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
2300 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
2301
2302 to request calling a callback function
2303
2304 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
2305 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
2306
2307 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
2308 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
2309 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
2310 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
2311 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
2312 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
2313 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
2314 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
2315 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
2316 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
2317
2318 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
2319 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
2320 [Bodo Moeller]
2321
2322 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
2323 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
2324 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
2325 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
2326 the configuration scripts.
2327
2328 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
2329 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
2330 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
2331
2332 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
2333 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2334
2335 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
2336 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
2337 when reusing an existing buffer.
2338 [Bodo Moeller]
2339
2340 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
2341 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
2342 [Steve Henson]
2343
2344 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
2345 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
2346 [Ben Laurie]
2347
2348 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
2349 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
2350 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
2351 has the same effect.
2352 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
2353
2354 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
2355 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
2356 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
2357 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
2358 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
2359 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
2360 exception.
2361
2362 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
2363 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
2364 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
2365 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
2366
2367 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
2368 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
2369 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
2370 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
2371
2372 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
2373 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
2374 won't work.
2375
2376 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
2377 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
2378 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
2379 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
2380 default), and then completely removed.
2381 [Richard Levitte]
2382
2383 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
2384 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
2385 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
2386 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
2387 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
2388 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
2389 particular extension is supported.
2390 [Steve Henson]
2391
2392 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
2393 to retain compatibility with existing code.
2394 [Steve Henson]
2395
2396 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
2397 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
2398 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
2399 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
2400 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
2401 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
2402 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
2403 requires the destination to be valid.
2404
2405 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
2406 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
2407 [Steve Henson]
2408
2409 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
2410 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
2411 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
2412 [Bodo Moeller]
2413
2414 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
2415 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
2416
2417 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
2418 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
2419 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
2420 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
2421 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
2422 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
2423 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
2424 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
2425 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
2426 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
2427 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
2428 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
2429 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
2430 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
2431 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
2432 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
2433 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
2434 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
2435 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
2436 the new code.
2437 [Geoff Thorpe]
2438
2439 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
2440 [Steve Henson]
2441
2442 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
2443 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
2444 become part of libeay.num as well.
2445 [Richard Levitte]
2446
2447 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
2448 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
2449 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
2450 false once a handshake has been completed.
2451 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
2452 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
2453 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
2454 client has followed the request.)
2455 [Bodo Moeller]
2456
2457 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
2458 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
2459 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
2460 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
2461
2462 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
2463 more bits available for options that should not be part of
2464 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
2465 [Bodo Moeller]
2466
2467 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
2468 [Steve Henson]
2469
2470 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
2471 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
2472 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
2473 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2474
2475 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
2476 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
2477 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2478
2479 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
2480 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
2481 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
2482 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
2483 [Geoff Thorpe]
2484
2485 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
2486 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
2487 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
2488 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
2489 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
2490 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
2491 [Geoff Thorpe]
2492
2493 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
2494 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
2495 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
2496 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
2497 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
2498 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
2499 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
2500 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
2501 [Geoff Thorpe]
2502
2503 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
2504 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
2505 [Geoff Thorpe]
2506
2507 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
2508 [Ben Laurie]
2509
2510 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
2511 md_data void pointer.
2512 [Ben Laurie]
2513
2514 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
2515 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
2516 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
2517 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
2518 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
2519 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
2520 [Ben Laurie]
2521
2522 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
2523 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
2524 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
2525 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
2526 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
2527 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
2528 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
2529 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
2530 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
2531 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
2532 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
2533 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
2534 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
2535 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
2536 rather than letting it slide.
2537
2538 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
2539 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
2540 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
2541 [Geoff Thorpe]
2542
2543 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
2544 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
2545 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
2546 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
2547 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
2548 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
2549 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
2550 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
2551 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
2552 [Geoff Thorpe]
2553
2554 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
2555 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
2556 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
2557 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
2558 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
2559
2560 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
2561 [Geoff Thorpe]
2562
2563 *) Add EVP test program.
2564 [Ben Laurie]
2565
2566 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
2567 [Ben Laurie]
2568
2569 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
2570 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
2571 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
2572 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
2573 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
2574 [Steve Henson]
2575
2576 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
2577 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
2578 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
2579 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
2580 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
2581 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
2582 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
2583
2584 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
2585 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
2586 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
2587 Usage example:
2588
2589 EVP_MD_CTX md;
2590
2591 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
2592 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
2593 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
2594 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
2595 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
2596
2597 [Ben Laurie]
2598
2599 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
2600 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
2601 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
2602 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
2603 anyway): E.g.,
2604
2605 des_key_schedule ks;
2606
2607 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
2608 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
2609
2610 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
2611 [Ben Laurie]
2612
2613 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
2614 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
2615 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
2616 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
2617 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
2618 functions prevents this.
2619 [Steve Henson]
2620
2621 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
2622 [Ben Laurie]
2623
2624 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
2625 correct _ecb suffix.
2626 [Ben Laurie]
2627
2628 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
2629 revocation information is handled using the text based index
2630 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
2631 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
2632 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
2633 [Steve Henson]
2634
2635 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
2636 [Richard Levitte]
2637
2638 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
2639 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
2640 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
2641 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
2642
2643 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
2644 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
2645
2646 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
2647 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
2648 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
2649 via Richard Levitte]
2650
2651 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
2652 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
2653 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
2654 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
2655 [Geoff Thorpe]
2656
2657 *) Speed up EVP routines.
2658 Before:
2659 encrypt
2660 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
2661 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
2662 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
2663 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k
2664 decrypt
2665 des-cbc 3482.66k 5069.49k 5496.39k 5614.16k 5639.28k
2666 des-cbc 3480.74k 5068.76k 5510.34k 5609.87k 5635.52k
2667 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
2668 After:
2669 encrypt
2670 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
2671 decrypt
2672 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
2673 [Ben Laurie]
2674
2675 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
2676 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
2677
2678 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
2679 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
2680 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
2681 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
2682 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
2683 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
2684 [Steve Henson]
2685
2686 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
2687 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
2688 [Richard Levitte]
2689
2690 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
2691 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
2692 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
2693 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
2694
2695 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
2696 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
2697 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
2698 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
2699 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
2700 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
2701 callback.
2702 [Richard Levitte]
2703
2704 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
2705 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
2706 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
2707 and interrupts/cancellations.
2708 [Richard Levitte]
2709
2710 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
2711 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
2712 [Steve Henson]
2713
2714 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
2715 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
2716 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
2717
2718 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
2719 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
2720 kind of callback.
2721 [Richard Levitte]
2722
2723 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
2724 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
2725 than this minimum value is recommended.
2726 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2727
2728 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
2729 that are easily reachable.
2730 [Richard Levitte]
2731
2732 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
2733 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
2734
2735 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
2736
2737 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
2738 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
2739 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
2740 needed for static libraries under Win32.
2741 [Steve Henson]
2742
2743 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
2744 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
2745 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
2746 [Steve Henson]
2747
2748 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
2749 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
2750 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
2751 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
2752 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
2753 internally such as S/MIME.
2754
2755 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
2756 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
2757 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
2758
2759 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
2760 applications.
2761 [Steve Henson]
2762
2763 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
2764 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
2765 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
2766 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
2767
2768 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
2769
2770 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
2771
2772 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
2773 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
2774 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
2775 handling.
2776 [Steve Henson]
2777
2778 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
2779 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
2780 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
2781 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
2782 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
2783 a window system and the like.
2784 [Richard Levitte]
2785
2786 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
2787 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
2788 [Geoff]
2789
2790 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
2791 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
2792 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
2793 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
2794 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
2795 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
2796 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
2797 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
2798 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
2799 ENGINE structure.
2800 [Geoff]
2801
2802 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
2803 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
2804 tag cache.
2805 [Steve Henson]
2806
2807 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
2808 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
2809 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
2810 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
2811 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
2812 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
2813 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
2814 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
2815 [Geoff]
2816
2817 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
2818 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
2819 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
2820 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
2821 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
2822 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
2823 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
2824 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
2825 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
2826 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
2827 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
2828 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
2829 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
2830 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
2831 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
2832 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
2833 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
2834 [Geoff]
2835
2836 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
2837 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
2838 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
2839 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
2840 internal engine_int.h header.
2841 [Geoff]
2842
2843 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
2844 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
2845 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
2846 modify their own ones).
2847 [Geoff]
2848
2849 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
2850 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
2851 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
2852 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
2853 later on via ctrl() commands.
2854 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
2855 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
2856 structural references.
2857 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
2858 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
2859 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
2860 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
2861 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
2862 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
2863 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
2864 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
2865 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
2866 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
2867 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
2868 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
2869 [Geoff]
2870
2871 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
2872 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
2873 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
2874 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
2875 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
2876 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
2877 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
2878 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
2879 [Bodo Moeller]
2880
2881 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
2882 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
2883 [Steve Henson]
2884
2885 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
2886 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
2887 [Steve Henson]
2888
2889 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
2890 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
2891 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
2892 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
2893 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
2894 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
2895 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
2896 [Steve Henson]
2897
2898 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
2899 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
2900 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
2901 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
2902 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
2903
2904 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
2905 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
2906 generator).
2907 [Bodo Moeller]
2908
2909 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
2910
2911 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
2912 operations and provides various method functions that can also
2913 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
2914
2915 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
2916 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
2917
2918 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
2919 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
2920 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
2921
2922 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
2923 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
2924
2925 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
2926 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
2927
2928 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
2929
2930 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
2931 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
2932 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
2933 [Bodo Moeller]
2934
2935 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
2936 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
2937 [Richard Levitte]
2938
2939 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
2940 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
2941 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
2942 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
2943 is 40 of more characters long.
2944 [Steve Henson]
2945
2946 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
2947 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
2948 pointers.
2949 [Steve Henson]
2950
2951 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
2952 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
2953 [Bodo Moeller]
2954
2955 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
2956 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
2957 might.
2958 [Steve Henson]
2959
2960 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
2961
2962 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
2963 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
2964
2965 ASN1 error codes
2966 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
2967 ...
2968 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
2969 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
2970 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
2971 ...
2972 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
2973 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
2974
2975 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
2976 [Bodo Moeller]
2977
2978 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
2979 suffices.
2980 [Bodo Moeller]
2981
2982 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
2983 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
2984 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
2985 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
2986 and
2987 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
2988
2989 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
2990 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
2991
2992 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
2993 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
2994 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
2995 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
2996 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
2997 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
2998
2999 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3000 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3001
3002 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3003 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3004
3005 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3006 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3007
3008 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3009 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3010 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3011 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3012
3013 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
3014 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
3015
3016 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
3017 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
3018
3019 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3020 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3021 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3022 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3023 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
3024 [Richard Levitte]
3025
3026 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
3027 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
3028 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
3029 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
3030 [Steve Henson]
3031
3032 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
3033 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
3034 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
3035 trust settings.
3036 [Steve Henson]
3037
3038 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
3039 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
3040 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
3041 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
3042 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
3043 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
3044 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
3045 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
3046 ocsp utility.
3047 [Steve Henson]
3048
3049 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
3050 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
3051 [Steve Henson]
3052
3053 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
3054 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
3055 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
3056 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
3057 [Steve Henson]
3058
3059 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
3060 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
3061 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
3062 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
3063 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
3064 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
3065 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
3066 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
3067 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
3068 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
3069 [Steve Henson]
3070
3071 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
3072 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
3073 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
3074 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
3075 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
3076 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
3077 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
3078 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3079
3080 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
3081 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
3082 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
3083 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
3084 [Richard Levitte]
3085
3086 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
3087 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
3088 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
3089 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
3090 opensslconf.h.
3091 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
3092 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
3093 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
3094 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
3095 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
3096 what is available.
3097 [Richard Levitte]
3098
3099 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
3100 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
3101 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
3102 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
3103 auto incremented.
3104 [Steve Henson]
3105
3106 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
3107 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
3108 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
3109 [Steve Henson]
3110
3111 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
3112 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
3113 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
3114 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
3115 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
3116 [Steve Henson]
3117
3118 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
3119 [Steve Henson]
3120
3121 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
3122 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
3123 option to ocsp utility.
3124 [Steve Henson]
3125
3126 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
3127 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
3128 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
3129 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
3130 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
3131 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
3132 the request is nonce-less.
3133 [Steve Henson]
3134
3135 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
3136 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
3137 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
3138 [Bodo Moeller]
3139
3140 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
3141 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
3142 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
3143 [Steve Henson]
3144
3145 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
3146 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
3147 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
3148 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
3149 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
3150 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3151
3152 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
3153 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
3154 appear to exist.
3155 [Steve Henson]
3156
3157 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
3158 additional certificates supplied.
3159 [Steve Henson]
3160
3161 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
3162 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
3163 signature against.
3164 [Richard Levitte]
3165
3166 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
3167 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
3168 AES OIDs.
3169
3170 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
3171 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
3172 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
3173 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
3174 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
3175 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
3176 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
3177 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
3178 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3179
3180 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
3181 request to response.
3182 [Steve Henson]
3183
3184 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
3185 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
3186 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
3187 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
3188 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
3189 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
3190 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
3191 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
3192 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
3193 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
3194 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
3195 [Steve Henson]
3196
3197 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
3198 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
3199 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
3200 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
3201 [Steve Henson]
3202
3203 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
3204 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3205
3206 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
3207 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
3208 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
3209 [Steve Henson]
3210
3211 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
3212 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
3213 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
3214 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3215 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3216
3217 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
3218 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
3219 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
3220 [Steve Henson]
3221
3222 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
3223 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
3224 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
3225 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
3226 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
3227 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
3228 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3229 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3230
3231 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
3232 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
3233 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
3234 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
3235 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
3236 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
3237 [Steve Henson]
3238
3239 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
3240 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
3241 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
3242 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
3243 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
3244 printout format cleaned up.
3245 [Steve Henson]
3246
3247 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
3248 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
3249 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
3250 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
3251 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
3252 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
3253 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
3254 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
3255 [Steve Henson]
3256
3257 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
3258 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
3259 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
3260 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
3261 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
3262 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
3263 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
3264 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
3265 [Steve Henson]
3266
3267 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
3268 extensions from a separate configuration file.
3269 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
3270 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
3271 section to use.
3272 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3273
3274 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
3275 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
3276 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
3277 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
3278 [Steve Henson]
3279
3280 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
3281 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
3282 the given serial number (according to the index file).
3283 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
3284 in the index file.
3285 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3286
3287 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
3288 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
3289 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
3290 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3291
3292 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
3293 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
3294
3295 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
3296 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
3297 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
3298 [Steve Henson]
3299
3300 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
3301 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
3302 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
3303 [Bodo Moeller]
3304
3305 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
3306 file name and line number information in additional arguments
3307 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
3308 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
3309 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
3310 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
3311 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
3312 functions are provided:
3313
3314 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
3315 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
3316 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
3317 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
3318
3319 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
3320 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
3321 extended allocation function is enabled.
3322 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
3323 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
3324 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
3325
3326 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
3327 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
3328 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
3329 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
3330 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
3331 [Geoff Thorpe]
3332
3333 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
3334 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
3335 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
3336 be queried.
3337 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
3338 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
3339 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
3340 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3341
3342 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
3343 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
3344 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
3345 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
3346 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
3347 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
3348 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
3349 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
3350 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
3351 [Richard Levitte]
3352
3353 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
3354 provide utility functions which an application needing
3355 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
3356 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
3357 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
3358
3359 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
3360 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
3361 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
3362 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
3363 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
3364 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
3365 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
3366 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
3367 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
3368
3369 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
3370 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
3371 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
3372 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
3373 [Steve Henson]
3374
3375 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
3376 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
3377 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
3378 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
3379 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
3380 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
3381 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
3382 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
3383 will be added elsewhere.
3384 [Steve Henson]
3385
3386 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
3387 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
3388 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
3389 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
3390 [Steve Henson]
3391
3392 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
3393 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
3394 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
3395 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
3396 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
3397 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
3398 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
3399 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
3400 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
3401 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
3402 to produce the required SET OF.
3403 [Steve Henson]
3404
3405 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
3406 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
3407 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
3408 [Richard Levitte]
3409
3410 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
3411 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
3412 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
3413 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
3414 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
3415 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
3416 [Steve Henson]
3417
3418 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
3419 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
3420 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
3421 [Steve Henson]
3422
3423 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
3424 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
3425 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
3426 [Richard Levitte]
3427
3428 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
3429 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
3430 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
3431 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
3432 code will still work when these eventually go away.
3433 [Steve Henson]
3434
3435 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
3436 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
3437 [Steve Henson]
3438
3439 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
3440 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
3441 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
3442 certifcates and CRLs.
3443 [Steve Henson]
3444
3445 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
3446 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
3447 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
3448 [Steve Henson]
3449
3450 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
3451 entries for variables.
3452 [Steve Henson]
3453
3454 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
3455 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
3456 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
3457 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
3458 [Bodo Moeller]
3459
3460 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
3461 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
3462 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
3463 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
3464 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
3465 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
3466 [Bodo Moeller]
3467
3468 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
3469 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
3470
3471 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
3472 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
3473 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
3474 [Steve Henson]
3475
3476 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
3477 print routines.
3478 [Steve Henson]
3479
3480 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
3481 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
3482 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
3483 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
3484 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
3485 order did not reflect the encoded order.
3486 [Steve Henson]
3487
3488 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
3489 [Steve Henson]
3490
3491 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
3492 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
3493 for now but they will eventually go away.
3494 [Steve Henson]
3495
3496 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
3497 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
3498 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
3499 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
3500 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
3501 has also been converted to the new form.
3502 [Steve Henson]
3503
3504 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
3505 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
3506 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
3507 for negative moduli.
3508 [Bodo Moeller]
3509
3510 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
3511 of not touching the result's sign bit.
3512 [Bodo Moeller]
3513
3514 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
3515 set.
3516 [Bodo Moeller]
3517
3518 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
3519 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
3520 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
3521 type-specific callbacks.
3522 [Geoff Thorpe]
3523
3524 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
3525 RFC 2712.
3526 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
3527 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
3528
3529 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
3530 in sections depending on the subject.
3531 [Richard Levitte]
3532
3533 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
3534 Windows.
3535 [Richard Levitte]
3536
3537 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
3538 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
3539 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
3540 be handled deterministically).
3541 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
3542
3543 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
3544 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
3545 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
3546 [Bodo Moeller]
3547
3548 *) New function BN_kronecker.
3549 [Bodo Moeller]
3550
3551 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
3552 positive unless both parameters are zero.
3553 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
3554 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
3555 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
3556 [Bodo Moeller]
3557
3558 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
3559 sign of the number in question.
3560
3561 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
3562
3563 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
3564 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
3565 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
3566 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
3567 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
3568 [Bodo Moeller]
3569
3570 *) New function BN_swap.
3571 [Bodo Moeller]
3572
3573 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
3574 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
3575 results on negative inputs.
3576 [Bodo Moeller]
3577
3578 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
3579 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
3580 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
3581 [Bodo Moeller]
3582
3583 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
3584 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
3585 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
3586 and add new functions:
3587
3588 BN_nnmod
3589 BN_mod_sqr
3590 BN_mod_add
3591 BN_mod_add_quick
3592 BN_mod_sub
3593 BN_mod_sub_quick
3594 BN_mod_lshift1
3595 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
3596 BN_mod_lshift
3597 BN_mod_lshift_quick
3598
3599 These functions always generate non-negative results.
3600
3601 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
3602 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
3603
3604 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
3605 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
3606 be reduced modulo m.
3607 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
3608
3609 #if 0
3610 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
3611 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
3612 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
3613
3614 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3615 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3616 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3617 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3618 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3619 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3620 differing sizes.
3621 [Richard Levitte]
3622 #endif
3623
3624 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
3625 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
3626 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
3627 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
3628 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
3629
3630 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
3631 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
3632 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
3633 cause any problems.
3634 [Bodo Moeller]
3635
3636 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
3637 [Richard Levitte]
3638
3639 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
3640 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
3641 [Richard Levitte]
3642
3643 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
3644 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
3645 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
3646 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
3647 time)
3648 [Richard Levitte]
3649
3650 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
3651 [Richard Levitte]
3652
3653 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
3654 [Richard Levitte]
3655
3656 *) Add the following functions:
3657
3658 ENGINE_load_cswift()
3659 ENGINE_load_chil()
3660 ENGINE_load_atalla()
3661 ENGINE_load_nuron()
3662 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
3663
3664 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
3665 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
3666 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
3667 libraries unless it's really needed.
3668
3669 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
3670 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
3671 declarations (they differed!).
3672 [Richard Levitte]
3673
3674 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
3675 [Richard Levitte]
3676
3677 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
3678 [Richard Levitte]
3679
3680 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
3681 [Bodo Moeller]
3682
3683 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
3684 identity, and test if they are actually available.
3685 [Richard Levitte]
3686
3687 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
3688 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
3689 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3690
3691 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
3692 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
3693 [Richard Levitte]
3694
3695 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
3696 [Richard Levitte]
3697
3698 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
3699 [Richard Levitte]
3700
3701 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
3702 [Ben Laurie]
3703
3704 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
3705 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
3706 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
3707
3708 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
3709 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
3710 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
3711 different shared library filenames on each system.
3712 [Geoff Thorpe]
3713
3714 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
3715 [Richard Levitte]
3716
3717 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
3718 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
3719 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
3720 of two sections.
3721 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
3722
3723 *) NCONF changes.
3724 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
3725 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
3726 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
3727 binary backward compatibility.
3728 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
3729 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
3730 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
3731 LDAP server.
3732 [Richard Levitte]
3733
3734 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
3735 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
3736 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
3737 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
3738 this case.
3739 [Steve Henson]
3740
3741 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
3742 [Ben Laurie]
3743
3744 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
3745 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
3746 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
3747 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
3748 set.
3749 [Steve Henson]
3750
3751 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
3752 [Richard Levitte]
3753
3754 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
3755
3756 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
3757 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
3758 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3759
3760 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
3761
3762 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
3763
3764 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
3765 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
3766 [Steve Henson]
3767
3768 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
3769
3770 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
3771
3772 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
3773 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
3774
3775 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
3776 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
3777
3778 [Steve Henson]
3779
3780 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
3781 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
3782 specifications.
3783 [Steve Henson]
3784
3785 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
3786 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
3787 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
3788 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
3789
3790 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
3791 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
3792 [Richard Levitte]
3793
3794 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
3795
3796 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
3797 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
3798 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
3799 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
3800 [Bodo Moeller]
3801
3802 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
3803 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
3804 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
3805 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
3806 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
3807
3808 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
3809 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
3810 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
3811 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
3812 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
3813 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
3814 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
3815 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
3816 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
3817 [Bodo Moeller]
3818
3819 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
3820
3821 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
3822 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
3823 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
3824 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
3825 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
3826
3827 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
3828 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
3829 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
3830
3831 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
3832
3833 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
3834 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
3835 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
3836 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
3837 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
3838 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
3839 [Geoff Thorpe]
3840
3841 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
3842 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
3843 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
3844 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
3845 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
3846 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3847
3848 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
3849 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
3850 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
3851
3852 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
3853 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
3854 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
3855 EVP_cleanup().
3856 [Richard Levitte]
3857
3858 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
3859 being properly terminated.
3860 [Richard Levitte]
3861
3862 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
3863 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
3864 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
3865 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
3866
3867 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
3868 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
3869 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
3870 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
3871 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
3872 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
3873 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
3874 change.
3875 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
3876
3877 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
3878 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
3879 [Bodo Moeller]
3880
3881 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
3882 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
3883 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
3884 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
3885 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
3886 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
3887 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
3888 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
3889
3890 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
3891 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
3892 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
3893 (see [openssl.org #212]).
3894 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3895
3896 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
3897 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
3898 [Steve Henson]
3899
3900 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
3901
3902 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
3903 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
3904 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
3905
3906 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
3907
3908 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
3909 and get fix the header length calculation.
3910 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
3911 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
3912 Steve Henson]
3913
3914 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
3915 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
3916 assertions could call abort()).
3917 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
3918
3919 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
3920
3921 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
3922 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
3923 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
3924 supplied buffer.
3925 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
3926
3927 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
3928 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
3929 by the selection routines (PR #130).
3930 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3931
3932 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
3933 [Nils Larsch]
3934
3935 *) New option
3936 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
3937 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
3938 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
3939
3940 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
3941 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
3942 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
3943 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
3944 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
3945 applications.
3946 [Bodo Moeller]
3947
3948 *) Changes in security patch:
3949
3950 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
3951 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
3952 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
3953 F30602-01-2-0537.
3954
3955 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
3956 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
3957 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
3958 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
3959 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
3960
3961 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
3962 happen in practice.
3963 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3964
3965 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
3966 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
3967 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
3968
3969 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
3970 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
3971 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3972
3973 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
3974 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
3975 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3976
3977 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
3978
3979 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
3980 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
3981 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
3982
3983 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
3984 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3985
3986 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
3987 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
3988 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
3989 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
3990 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
3991 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
3992 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3993
3994 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
3995 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
3996 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
3997 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
3998 [Bodo Moeller]
3999
4000 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
4001 [Bodo Moeller]
4002
4003 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
4004 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
4005 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
4006 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4007 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4008 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4009
4010 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4011 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4012 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4013 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4014 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4015 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4016
4017 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4018 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4019 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4020 BN_generate_prime().)
4021
4022 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4023 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4024 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4025 better.
4026 [Bodo Moeller]
4027
4028 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
4029 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
4030 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4031
4032 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
4033 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
4034 when using non-blocking I/O.
4035 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
4036
4037 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
4038 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
4039
4040 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
4041 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
4042 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4043
4044 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
4045 configuration for the versions before that.
4046 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4047
4048 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
4049 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
4050 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
4051 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
4052 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4053
4054 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
4055 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
4056 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
4057 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4058
4059 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
4060 value is 0.
4061 [Richard Levitte]
4062
4063 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
4064 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4065 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4066
4067 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
4068 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
4069
4070 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
4071 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
4072 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
4073 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
4074 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
4075 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
4076 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
4077 session cache.
4078
4079 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
4080 using a local variable.
4081 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4082
4083 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
4084 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
4085 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4086
4087 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
4088 [Richard Levitte]
4089
4090 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
4091 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
4092
4093 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
4094 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
4095 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
4096
4097 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
4098
4099 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
4100 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
4101 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
4102 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
4103 [Bodo Moeller]
4104
4105 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
4106 present.
4107 [Steve Henson]
4108
4109 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
4110 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
4111 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
4112 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
4113 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
4114
4115 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
4116 returns early because it has nothing to do.
4117 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4118
4119 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4120 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
4121 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4122
4123 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4124 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
4125 (Use engine 'keyclient')
4126 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
4127
4128 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
4129 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
4130 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
4131 modules).
4132 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
4133
4134 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4135 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
4136 from 0.9.7.
4137 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
4138
4139 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4140 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
4141 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4142 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
4143
4144 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4145 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
4146 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4147 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
4148
4149 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
4150 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
4151
4152 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
4153 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
4154 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
4155 [Bodo Moeller]
4156
4157 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
4158 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
4159 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
4160 become invalid.
4161 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
4162
4163 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
4164 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
4165 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
4166 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
4167 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
4168 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
4169 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
4170 [Bodo Moeller]
4171
4172 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
4173 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
4174 one of the SSL handshake functions.
4175 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
4176
4177 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
4178 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
4179 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
4180 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
4181 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
4182 the client will at least see that alert.
4183 [Bodo Moeller]
4184
4185 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
4186 correctly.
4187 [Bodo Moeller]
4188
4189 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
4190 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
4191 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4192
4193 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
4194 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
4195 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
4196 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
4197 HelloRequest.
4198
4199 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
4200 before just sending a HelloRequest.
4201 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
4202
4203 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
4204 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
4205 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
4206 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
4207 may leak via logfiles.)
4208
4209 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
4210 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
4211 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
4212 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
4213 the legal range.
4214 [Bodo Moeller]
4215
4216 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
4217 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4218 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4219
4220 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
4221 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
4222 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
4223 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
4224 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
4225 [Bodo Moeller]
4226
4227 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
4228 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
4229
4230 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
4231 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
4232 followed by modular reduction.
4233 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
4234
4235 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
4236 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
4237 [Bodo Moeller]
4238
4239 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
4240 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
4241 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
4242 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
4243 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4244
4245 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
4246 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4247
4248 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
4249 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
4250 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4251
4252 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
4253 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
4254 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
4255 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
4256 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
4257 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
4258 automatically.
4259 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
4260
4261 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
4262 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
4263 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
4264 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
4265 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
4266
4267 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
4268 [Andy Polyakov]
4269
4270 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
4271 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
4272 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
4273 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
4274 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
4275 to allow the necessary settings.
4276 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4277
4278 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
4279 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
4280 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
4281 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
4282 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4283
4284 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
4285 dh->length and always used
4286
4287 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
4288
4289 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
4290 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
4291 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
4292 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
4293 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
4294 dh->length.
4295
4296 So switch back to
4297
4298 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
4299
4300 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
4301 otherwise.
4302 [Bodo Moeller]
4303
4304 *) In
4305
4306 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
4307 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
4308 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
4309 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
4310
4311 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
4312 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
4313 always reject numbers >= n.
4314 [Bodo Moeller]
4315
4316 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
4317 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
4318 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
4319 variable) is not atomic.
4320 [Bodo Moeller]
4321
4322 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
4323 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
4324 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
4325 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
4326
4327 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
4328 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
4329
4330 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
4331 little-endian MIPS.
4332 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
4333
4334 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
4335 [Richard Levitte]
4336
4337 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
4338
4339 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
4340 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
4341 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
4342 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
4343 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
4344 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
4345 to traverse all of 'state'.
4346
4347 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
4348 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
4349 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
4350
4351 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
4352 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
4353
4354 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
4355 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
4356 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
4357 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
4358 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
4359 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
4360 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
4361 further strengthens the PRNG.
4362 [Bodo Moeller]
4363
4364 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
4365 [Andy Polyakov]
4366
4367 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
4368 an error message in this case.
4369 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4370
4371 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
4372 [Steve Henson]
4373
4374 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
4375 positive and less than q.
4376 [Bodo Moeller]
4377
4378 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
4379 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
4380 that itself.
4381 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
4382
4383 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
4384 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
4385 [Bodo Moeller]
4386
4387 *) Fix OAEP check.
4388 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
4389
4390 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
4391 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
4392 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
4393 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
4394 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
4395 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
4396 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
4397 paper.)
4398
4399 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
4400 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
4401 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
4402 detect the supposedly ignored error.
4403
4404 Both problems are now fixed.
4405 [Bodo Moeller]
4406
4407 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
4408 (previously it was 1024).
4409 [Bodo Moeller]
4410
4411 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
4412 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
4413 [Steve Henson]
4414
4415 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
4416 [Steve Henson]
4417
4418 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
4419 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
4420 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
4421 [Steve Henson]
4422
4423 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
4424 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
4425 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
4426 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
4427 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
4428 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
4429 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
4430 environment variables.
4431
4432 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
4433 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
4434 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
4435 [Bodo Moeller]
4436
4437 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
4438 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
4439 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
4440 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
4441 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
4442 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
4443 [Bodo Moeller]
4444
4445 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
4446 versions of 'test'.
4447 [Bodo Moeller]
4448
4449 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
4450
4451 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
4452 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
4453
4454 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
4455 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
4456 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
4457 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
4458 CygWin.
4459 [Richard Levitte]
4460
4461 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
4462 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
4463 amount of data available.
4464 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
4465 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4466
4467 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
4468 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
4469 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
4470 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
4471 [Bodo Moeller]
4472
4473 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
4474 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
4475 and UnixWare.
4476 [Richard Levitte]
4477
4478 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
4479 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
4480 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
4481 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
4482 [Ulf Moeller]
4483
4484 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
4485 [Andy Polyakov]
4486
4487 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
4488 [Richard Levitte]
4489
4490 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
4491 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
4492 [Steve Henson]
4493 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4494
4495 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
4496 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
4497 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
4498 (but broken) behaviour.
4499 [Steve Henson]
4500
4501 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
4502 it when found.
4503 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
4504
4505 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
4506 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
4507 [Bodo Moeller]
4508
4509 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
4510 did not exist.
4511 [Bodo Moeller]
4512
4513 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
4514 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
4515
4516 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
4517 [Richard Levitte]
4518
4519 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
4520 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
4521 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
4522
4523 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
4524 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
4525 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
4526 [Steve Henson]
4527
4528 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
4529 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
4530 [Ulf Moeller]
4531
4532 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
4533 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
4534
4535 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
4536
4537 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
4538
4539 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
4540 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
4541 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
4542 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
4543 [Bodo Moeller]
4544
4545 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
4546 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4547
4548 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
4549 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
4550 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
4551
4552 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
4553 was empty.
4554 [Steve Henson]
4555 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4556
4557 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
4558 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
4559 but the code is actually correct.
4560 [Steve Henson]
4561
4562 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
4563 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
4564 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
4565 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
4566 and leaves the highest bit random.
4567 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4568
4569 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
4570 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
4571 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
4572 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
4573 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
4574 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
4575 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
4576 [Bodo Moeller]
4577
4578 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
4579 [Ulf Moeller]
4580
4581 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
4582 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
4583 [Steve Henson]
4584
4585 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
4586 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
4587 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
4588 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
4589 headers.
4590 [Richard Levitte]
4591
4592 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
4593 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
4594 and break the signature.
4595 [Steve Henson]
4596 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4597
4598 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
4599 DH ciphersuites.
4600 [Steve Henson]
4601
4602 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
4603 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
4604 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
4605 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
4606 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
4607 [Bodo Moeller]
4608
4609 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
4610 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
4611
4612 *) ./config script fixes.
4613 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
4614
4615 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
4616 [Bodo Moeller]
4617
4618 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
4619 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
4620 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
4621 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
4622 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
4623
4624 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
4625 call failed, free the DSA structure.
4626 [Bodo Moeller]
4627
4628 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
4629 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
4630 [Steve Henson]
4631
4632 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
4633 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
4634 when writing a 32767 byte record.
4635 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
4636
4637 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
4638 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
4639
4640 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
4641 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
4642 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
4643 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
4644 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
4645
4646 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
4647 [Bodo Moeller]
4648
4649 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
4650 [Ulf Möller]
4651
4652 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
4653 [Ulf Möller]
4654
4655 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
4656 [Bodo Moeller]
4657
4658 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
4659 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
4660 [Bodo Moeller]
4661
4662 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
4663 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
4664 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
4665 result of the server certificate verification.)
4666 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4667
4668 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
4669 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
4670 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
4671 [Bodo Moeller]
4672
4673 *) Fix SSL_peek:
4674 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
4675 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
4676 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
4677 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
4678 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
4679 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
4680 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
4681 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
4682 [Bodo Moeller]
4683
4684 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
4685 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
4686 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
4687 happening the other way round.
4688 [Geoff Thorpe]
4689
4690 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
4691 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
4692 [Bodo Moeller]
4693
4694 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
4695 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
4696 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
4697 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
4698 [Richard Levitte]
4699
4700 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
4701 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
4702
4703 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
4704
4705 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
4706 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
4707 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
4708 that.
4709
4710 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
4711
4712 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
4713
4714 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
4715 static ones.
4716 [Richard Levitte]
4717
4718 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
4719
4720 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
4721 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
4722 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
4723 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
4724 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
4725
4726 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
4727 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
4728 matter what.
4729 [Richard Levitte]
4730
4731 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
4732 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4733
4734 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
4735
4736 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
4737 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
4738 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
4739 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
4740 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
4741 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
4742 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
4743 by the Finished messages.
4744 [Bodo Moeller]
4745
4746 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
4747 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
4748
4749 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
4750 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
4751 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
4752 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
4753 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
4754 appropriately.
4755 [Steve Henson]
4756
4757 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
4758 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
4759 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
4760 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
4761 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
4762 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
4763 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
4764 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
4765 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
4766 together.
4767 [Steve Henson]
4768
4769 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
4770 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
4771 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
4772 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
4773
4774 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
4775 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
4776 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
4777 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
4778 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
4779 the answer.
4780
4781 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
4782 been tested well enough.
4783 [Richard Levitte]
4784
4785 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
4786 it can return incorrect results.
4787 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
4788 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
4789 [Bodo Moeller]
4790
4791 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
4792 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
4793 include zero length content when signing messages.
4794 [Steve Henson]
4795
4796 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
4797 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
4798 [Bodo Möller]
4799
4800 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
4801 [Richard Levitte]
4802
4803 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
4804 wrong sign.
4805 [Ulf Möller]
4806
4807 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
4808 packages. The default package contains applications, application
4809 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
4810 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
4811 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
4812 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
4813 [Richard Levitte]
4814
4815 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
4816 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
4817
4818 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
4819 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
4820
4821 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
4822 random number < q in the DSA library.
4823 [Ulf Möller]
4824
4825 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
4826 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
4827 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
4828 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
4829 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
4830 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
4831 just makes things more complicated.)
4832 [Bodo Moeller]
4833
4834 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
4835 from EGD.
4836 [Ben Laurie]
4837
4838 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
4839 work better on such systems.
4840 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
4841
4842 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
4843 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
4844 keyid to the certificates aux info.
4845 [Steve Henson]
4846
4847 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
4848 if there was more than one signature.
4849 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
4850
4851 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
4852 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
4853 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
4854 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
4855 [Richard Levitte]
4856
4857 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
4858 rather than always using the current time.
4859 [Steve Henson]
4860
4861 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
4862 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
4863 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
4864 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
4865 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
4866 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
4867
4868 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
4869 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
4870
4871 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
4872
4873 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
4874 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
4875 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
4876 the same hash value.
4877
4878 As a result various functions (which were all internal
4879 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
4880 structure. This will break anything that messed round
4881 with X509_STORE internally.
4882
4883 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
4884 exact match, rather than just subject name.
4885
4886 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
4887 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
4888 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
4889 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
4890 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
4891 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
4892 entirely (maybe later...).
4893
4894 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
4895
4896 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
4897 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
4898 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
4899 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
4900 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
4901 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
4902 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
4903 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
4904
4905 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
4906 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
4907
4908 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
4909 to customise the verify behaviour.
4910 [Steve Henson]
4911
4912 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
4913 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
4914 [Steve Henson]
4915
4916 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
4917 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
4918 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
4919 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
4920 request is improperly encoded.
4921 [Steve Henson]
4922
4923 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
4924 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
4925 BIO_write(b, ...).
4926
4927 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
4928 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
4929
4930 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
4931 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
4932 words set to zero.)
4933 [Bodo Moeller]
4934
4935 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
4936 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
4937 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
4938 [Bodo Moeller]
4939
4940 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
4941 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
4942 BIO/fp routines also added.
4943 [Steve Henson]
4944
4945 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
4946 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
4947
4948 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
4949 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
4950 demos/state_machine.
4951 [Ben Laurie]
4952
4953 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
4954 generation and verification.
4955 [Steve Henson]
4956
4957 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
4958 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
4959 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
4960 encode and decode it manually.
4961 [Steve Henson]
4962
4963 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
4964 compile under VC++.
4965 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
4966
4967 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
4968 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
4969 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
4970 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
4971
4972 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
4973 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
4974 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
4975 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
4976 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
4977 [Steve Henson]
4978
4979 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
4980 [Richard Levitte]
4981
4982 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
4983 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
4984 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
4985
4986 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
4987 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
4988 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
4989 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
4990 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
4991 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
4992 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
4993 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
4994
4995 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
4996 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
4997
4998 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
4999
5000 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
5001 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
5002 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
5003
5004 [Richard Levitte]
5005
5006 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
5007 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
5008 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
5009 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
5010 [Richard Levitte]
5011
5012 *) MD4 implemented.
5013 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
5014
5015 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
5016 [Richard Levitte]
5017
5018 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5019 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5020 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5021 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5022 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5023 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5024 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5025 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
5026 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
5027 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
5028 short or long names are found.
5029 [Steve Henson]
5030
5031 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
5032 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
5033
5034 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
5035 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
5036 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
5037 version rollback attacks was not effective.
5038
5039 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
5040 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
5041 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
5042 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
5043 [Bodo Moeller]
5044
5045 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
5046 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
5047 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
5048 [Richard Levitte]
5049
5050 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
5051 these print out strings and name structures based on various
5052 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
5053 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
5054 to allow the various flags to be set.
5055 [Steve Henson]
5056
5057 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
5058 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
5059 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
5060 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
5061 dates to be checked.
5062 [Steve Henson]
5063
5064 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
5065 negative public key encodings) on by default,
5066 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
5067 [Steve Henson]
5068
5069 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
5070 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
5071 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
5072 [Steve Henson]
5073
5074 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
5075 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
5076 [Bodo Moeller]
5077
5078 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
5079 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
5080 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
5081 are always statically linked for now, but there are
5082 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
5083 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
5084 [Richard Levitte]
5085
5086 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
5087 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
5088 Random Numbers.
5089 [Ulf Möller]
5090
5091 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
5092 DSA key.
5093 [Steve Henson]
5094
5095 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
5096 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
5097 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
5098 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
5099 form signing output easier to verify.
5100 [Steve Henson]
5101
5102 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
5103 [Steve Henson]
5104
5105 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
5106 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
5107 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
5108 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
5109 are needed because all other string types have virtually
5110 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
5111 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
5112 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
5113 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
5114 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
5115 [Steve Henson]
5116
5117 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
5118
5119 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
5120 the syntax given in objects.README.
5121 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
5122 obj_mac.h.
5123 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
5124 obj_mac.h.
5125
5126 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
5127 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
5128 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
5129 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
5130 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
5131 consistent name changes.
5132 [Richard Levitte]
5133
5134 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
5135 [Bodo Moeller]
5136
5137 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
5138 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
5139 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
5140 environment variable, or the default random state file.
5141 [Richard Levitte]
5142
5143 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
5144 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
5145 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
5146 of safestack.h .
5147 [Steve Henson]
5148
5149 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
5150 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
5151 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
5152 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
5153 [Steve Henson]
5154
5155 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
5156 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
5157 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
5158 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
5159 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
5160 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
5161 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
5162 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
5163 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
5164 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
5165 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
5166 [Steve Henson]
5167
5168 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
5169 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
5170 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
5171 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
5172 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
5173 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
5174 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
5175 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
5176 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
5177 algorithm to openssl-dev.
5178 [Steve Henson]
5179
5180 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
5181 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
5182 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
5183 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
5184
5185 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
5186 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
5187 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
5188 omit any duplicate addresses.
5189 [Steve Henson]
5190
5191 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
5192 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
5193 [Bodo Moeller]
5194
5195 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
5196 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
5197 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
5198 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
5199 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
5200 [Bodo Moeller]
5201
5202 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
5203 software:
5204 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
5205 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
5206 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
5207 Free => OPENSSL_free
5208 [Richard Levitte]
5209
5210 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
5211 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
5212 [Bodo Moeller]
5213
5214 *) CygWin32 support.
5215 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
5216
5217 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
5218 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
5219 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
5220 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
5221 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
5222 approach.
5223 [Geoff Thorpe]
5224
5225 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
5226 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
5227 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
5228 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
5229 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
5230 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
5231 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
5232 [Geoff Thorpe]
5233
5234 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
5235 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
5236 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
5237 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
5238 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
5239 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
5240 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
5241 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
5242 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
5243 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
5244 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
5245 [Bodo Moeller]
5246
5247 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
5248 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
5249 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
5250 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
5251 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
5252
5253 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
5254 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
5255 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
5256 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
5257 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
5258
5259 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
5260 ciphers.
5261
5262 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
5263 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
5264 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
5265 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
5266
5267 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
5268
5269 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
5270 of macros.
5271
5272 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
5273 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
5274 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
5275 flags.
5276
5277 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
5278 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
5279 any installed hardware versions can.
5280 [Steve Henson]
5281
5282 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
5283 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
5284 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
5285 number.
5286 [Bodo Moeller]
5287
5288 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
5289 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
5290 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
5291 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
5292 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
5293
5294 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
5295 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
5296 [Steve Henson]
5297
5298 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
5299 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
5300 [Richard Levitte]
5301
5302 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
5303 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
5304 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
5305 features.
5306 [Steve Henson]
5307
5308 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
5309 [Ulf Möller]
5310
5311 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
5312 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
5313 but no ssl client purpose.
5314 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
5315
5316 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
5317 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
5318 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
5319 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
5320 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
5321 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
5322 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
5323 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
5324 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
5325 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
5326 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
5327 [Steve Henson]
5328
5329 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
5330 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
5331 be obtained from the error queue.
5332 [Bodo Moeller]
5333
5334 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
5335 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
5336 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
5337 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
5338 [Bodo Moeller]
5339
5340 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
5341 [Ulf Möller]
5342
5343 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
5344 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
5345 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
5346 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
5347 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
5348 [Geoff Thorpe]
5349
5350 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
5351 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
5352 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
5353 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
5354 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
5355 [Geoff Thorpe]
5356
5357 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
5358 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
5359 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
5360 may not be NULL.
5361 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
5362
5363 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
5364 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
5365 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
5366 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
5367 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
5368 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
5369 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
5370 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
5371 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
5372 or "the configuration storage API"...
5373
5374 The new configuration file reading functions are:
5375
5376 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
5377 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
5378
5379 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
5380
5381 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
5382
5383 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
5384 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
5385 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
5386 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
5387 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
5388 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
5389 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
5390
5391 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
5392 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
5393 [Richard Levitte]
5394
5395 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
5396 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
5397 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
5398 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
5399 [Bodo Moeller]
5400
5401 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
5402 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
5403 them in a portable way.
5404 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
5405
5406 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
5407
5408 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
5409
5410 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
5411 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
5412
5413 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
5414 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
5415 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
5416 <attili@amaxo.com>]
5417
5418 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
5419 was larger than the MD block size.
5420 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
5421
5422 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
5423 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
5424 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
5425 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
5426 components.
5427 [Steve Henson]
5428
5429 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
5430 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
5431 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
5432
5433 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
5434 discouraged.
5435 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
5436
5437 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
5438 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
5439 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
5440 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
5441 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
5442 Additional arguments are always ignored.
5443
5444 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
5445 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
5446
5447 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
5448 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
5449 [Bodo Moeller]
5450
5451 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
5452 [Bodo Moeller]
5453
5454 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
5455 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
5456 its own key.
5457 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
5458 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
5459 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
5460 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
5461 [Bodo Moeller]
5462
5463 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
5464 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
5465 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
5466 does not suppress any output.
5467 [Richard Levitte]
5468
5469 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
5470 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
5471 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
5472 with all the associated security issues.
5473
5474 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
5475 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
5476 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
5477 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
5478 use the value in the default purpose.
5479 [Steve Henson]
5480
5481 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
5482 and fix a memory leak.
5483 [Steve Henson]
5484
5485 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
5486 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
5487 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
5488 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
5489 [Bodo Moeller]
5490
5491 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
5492 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
5493 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
5494 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
5495 [Bodo Moeller]
5496
5497 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
5498 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
5499 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
5500 [Bodo Moeller]
5501
5502 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
5503 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
5504 [Bodo Moeller]
5505
5506 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
5507 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
5508 which was free.
5509 [Steve Henson]
5510
5511 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
5512 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
5513 [Bodo Moeller]
5514
5515 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
5516 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
5517 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
5518 [Bodo Moeller]
5519
5520 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
5521 number generation fails.
5522 [Bodo Moeller]
5523
5524 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
5525 [Bodo Moeller]
5526
5527 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
5528 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
5529
5530 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
5531 [Ulf Möller]
5532
5533 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
5534 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
5535
5536 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
5537 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
5538
5539 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
5540
5541 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
5542 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
5543 [Steve Henson]
5544
5545 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
5546 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
5547
5548 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
5549 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
5550 [Ulf Möller]
5551
5552 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
5553 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
5554 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
5555 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
5556 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
5557 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
5558
5559 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
5560 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
5561 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
5562 for example.
5563 [Steve Henson]
5564
5565 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
5566 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
5567 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
5568 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
5569 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
5570 counter, some don't.)
5571 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
5572 counters or duplicate objects.
5573 [Steve Henson]
5574
5575 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
5576 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
5577 [Steve Henson]
5578
5579 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
5580 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
5581 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
5582
5583 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
5584 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
5585 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
5586 or -rand.
5587 [Ulf Möller]
5588
5589 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
5590 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
5591 [Steve Henson]
5592
5593 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
5594 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
5595 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
5596 cipher list.
5597 [Steve Henson]
5598
5599 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
5600 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
5601 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
5602 [Steve Henson]
5603
5604 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
5605 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
5606 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
5607 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
5608 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
5609 should work without changes.
5610 [Richard Levitte]
5611
5612 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
5613 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
5614 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
5615 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
5616 must be defined. E.g.,
5617 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
5618 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
5619 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
5620 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
5621
5622 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
5623 record layer.
5624 [Bodo Moeller]
5625
5626 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
5627 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
5628 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
5629 [Steve Henson]
5630
5631 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
5632 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
5633 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
5634 request header lines. Some software needs this.
5635 [Steve Henson]
5636
5637 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
5638 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
5639 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
5640 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
5641 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
5642 is prompted for as usual.
5643 [Steve Henson]
5644
5645 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
5646 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
5647 autodetect the card and use it if present.
5648 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
5649
5650 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
5651 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
5652 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
5653 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
5654 [Steve Henson]
5655
5656 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
5657 [Andy Polyakov]
5658
5659 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
5660 of seed file.
5661 [Steve Henson]
5662
5663 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
5664 [Bodo Moeller]
5665
5666 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
5667 [Steve Henson]
5668
5669 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
5670 bits.
5671 [Ulf Möller]
5672
5673 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
5674 [Ulf Möller]
5675
5676 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
5677 [Andy Polyakov]
5678
5679 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
5680 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
5681 [Ulf Möller]
5682
5683 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
5684 options to produce them.
5685 [Steve Henson]
5686
5687 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
5688 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
5689 [Ulf Möller]
5690
5691 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
5692 for p == 0.
5693 [Ulf Möller]
5694
5695 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
5696 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
5697 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
5698 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
5699 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
5700 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
5701 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
5702 [Steve Henson]
5703
5704 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
5705 [Steve Henson]
5706
5707 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
5708 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
5709 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
5710 [Bodo Moeller]
5711
5712 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
5713 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
5714
5715 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
5716 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
5717 [Ulf Möller]
5718
5719 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
5720 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
5721 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
5722 has already seen).
5723 [Bodo Moeller]
5724
5725 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
5726 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
5727
5728 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
5729 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
5730 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
5731 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
5732 generation becomes much faster.
5733
5734 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
5735 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
5736 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
5737 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
5738 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
5739 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
5740 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
5741 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
5742 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
5743 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
5744 [Bodo Moeller]
5745
5746 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
5747 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
5748 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
5749 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
5750 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
5751 trial division stage.
5752 [Bodo Moeller]
5753
5754 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
5755 as ASN1_TIME.
5756 [Steve Henson]
5757
5758 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
5759 [Steve Henson]
5760
5761 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
5762 [Ulf Möller]
5763
5764 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
5765 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
5766 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
5767 the comments.
5768 [Ulf Möller]
5769
5770 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
5771 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
5772 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
5773 [Bodo Moeller]
5774
5775 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
5776 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
5777 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
5778 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
5779
5780 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
5781 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
5782 [Steve Henson]
5783
5784 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
5785 [Ulf Möller]
5786
5787 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
5788 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
5789 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
5790 Rabin-Miller iterations.
5791 [Ulf Möller]
5792
5793 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
5794 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
5795 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
5796 [Ulf Möller]
5797
5798 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
5799 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
5800 (instead of parameters) in future.
5801 [Steve Henson]
5802
5803 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
5804 when a new cipher list is set.
5805 [Steve Henson]
5806
5807 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
5808 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
5809 wrong.
5810
5811 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
5812 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
5813 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
5814
5815 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
5816 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
5817 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
5818 an error is flagged.
5819
5820 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
5821 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
5822 the readability was also increased :-)
5823 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
5824
5825 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
5826 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
5827 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
5828 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
5829 as the root CA.
5830 [Steve Henson]
5831
5832 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
5833 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
5834 [Steve Henson]
5835
5836 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
5837 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
5838 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
5839 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
5840 instead.
5841
5842 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
5843 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
5844 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
5845 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
5846 because they handle more complex structures.)
5847 [Steve Henson]
5848
5849 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
5850 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
5851 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
5852 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
5853
5854 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
5855 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
5856 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
5857 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
5858 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
5859 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
5860 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
5861 [Ulf Möller]
5862
5863 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
5864 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
5865 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
5866 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
5867 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
5868 [Bodo Moeller]
5869
5870 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
5871 [Bodo Moeller]
5872
5873 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
5874 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
5875 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
5876 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
5877 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
5878 to use this.
5879
5880 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
5881 code.
5882 [Steve Henson]
5883
5884 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
5885 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
5886 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
5887 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
5888 [Steve Henson]
5889
5890 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
5891 [Ulf Möller]
5892
5893 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
5894 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
5895 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
5896 international characters are used.
5897
5898 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
5899 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
5900 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
5901 in ASN1 order.
5902 [Steve Henson]
5903
5904 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
5905 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
5906 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
5907 request.
5908
5909 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
5910 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
5911 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
5912 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
5913 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
5914 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
5915
5916 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
5917 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
5918 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
5919 be handled by the string table functions.
5920
5921 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
5922 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
5923 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
5924 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
5925 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
5926 types at all.
5927 [Steve Henson]
5928
5929 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
5930 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
5931 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
5932 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
5933 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
5934
5935 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
5936 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
5937 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
5938 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
5939 [Bodo Moeller]
5940
5941 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
5942 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
5943 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
5944 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
5945 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
5946 SHA1.
5947 [Andy Polyakov]
5948
5949 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
5950 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
5951 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
5952 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
5953 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
5954 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
5955 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
5956 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
5957
5958 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
5959 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
5960 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
5961 [Steve Henson]
5962
5963 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
5964 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
5965 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
5966 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
5967 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
5968 support to pkcs8 application.
5969 [Steve Henson]
5970
5971 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
5972 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
5973 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
5974 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
5975 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
5976 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
5977 [Bodo Moeller]
5978
5979 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
5980 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
5981 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
5982 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
5983 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
5984 consistency.
5985 [Bodo Moeller]
5986
5987 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
5988 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
5989 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
5990 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
5991 example.
5992 [Steve Henson]
5993
5994 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
5995 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
5996 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
5997 and any application specific purposes.
5998
5999 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6000 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6001 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6002 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
6003 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
6004 if the certificate is self signed.
6005 [Steve Henson]
6006
6007 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6008 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6009 [Steve Henson]
6010
6011 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6012 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
6013 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
6014 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6015 [Steve Henson]
6016
6017 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6018 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6019 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6020 Update documentation.
6021 [Steve Henson]
6022
6023 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6024 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
6025 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
6026 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
6027 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
6028 [Steve Henson]
6029
6030 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
6031 for details.
6032 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
6033
6034 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
6035 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
6036 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
6037 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
6038 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
6039 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
6040 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
6041 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
6042 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
6043 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
6044
6045 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
6046
6047 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6048 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6049 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
6050 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
6051 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
6052
6053 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
6054 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
6055 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
6056 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
6057 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
6058 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
6059 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
6060 request additional information:
6061 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
6062 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
6063
6064 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
6065 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
6066 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
6067 options.
6068
6069 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
6070 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
6071
6072 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
6073 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
6074 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
6075
6076 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
6077 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6078
6079 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
6080 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
6081 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
6082 algorithm.
6083 [Steve Henson]
6084
6085 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
6086 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
6087 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
6088
6089 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
6090 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
6091 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
6092 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
6093 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
6094 included in OpenSSL.
6095 [Steve Henson]
6096
6097 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
6098 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
6099 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
6100 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
6101 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
6102 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
6103 [Bodo Moeller]
6104
6105 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
6106 PKCS12 structure.
6107 [Steve Henson]
6108
6109 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
6110 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
6111 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
6112 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
6113 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
6114 structure.
6115 [Steve Henson]
6116
6117 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
6118 need initialising.
6119 [Steve Henson]
6120
6121 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
6122 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
6123 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
6124 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
6125 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
6126 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
6127 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
6128 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
6129 be maintained manually.
6130
6131 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
6132 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
6133 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
6134 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
6135 work because people forget to call this function]
6136 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
6137 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
6138 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
6139 [Steve Henson]
6140
6141 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
6142 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
6143 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
6144 should be discouraged from doing it.
6145 [Ben Laurie]
6146
6147 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
6148 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
6149 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
6150 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
6151 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
6152 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
6153 [Steve Henson]
6154
6155 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
6156 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
6157 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
6158
6159 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
6160 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
6161 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
6162
6163 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
6164 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
6165 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
6166 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
6167 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
6168 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
6169
6170 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
6171 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
6172 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
6173
6174 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
6175 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
6176 and vice versa.
6177
6178 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
6179 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
6180 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
6181 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
6182 [Steve Henson]
6183
6184 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
6185 [Steve Henson]
6186
6187 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
6188 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
6189 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
6190 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
6191 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
6192 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
6193 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
6194 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
6195 keys so we should be OK.
6196
6197 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
6198 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
6199 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
6200 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
6201 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
6202 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
6203 stay in the name of compatibility.
6204
6205 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
6206 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
6207 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
6208
6209 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
6210 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
6211 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
6212 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
6213 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
6214 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
6215 supplied key).
6216 [Steve Henson]
6217
6218 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
6219 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
6220 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
6221 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
6222 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
6223 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
6224 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
6225 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
6226 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
6227 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
6228 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
6229 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
6230 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
6231 [Steve Henson]
6232
6233 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
6234 [Steve Henson]
6235
6236 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
6237 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
6238 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
6239 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
6240 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
6241 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
6242 single self signed certificate. This means that:
6243 openssl verify ss.pem
6244 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
6245 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
6246 is OK.
6247 [Steve Henson]
6248
6249 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
6250 (and add it to external session representation).
6251 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
6252 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
6253 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
6254 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
6255 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
6256 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
6257 security holes.
6258 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
6259
6260 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
6261 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
6262 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
6263 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
6264
6265 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
6266 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
6267 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
6268 [Steve Henson]
6269
6270 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
6271 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
6272 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
6273 code.
6274 [Steve Henson]
6275
6276 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
6277 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
6278 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
6279
6280 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
6281 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
6282 certificate auxiliary information.
6283 [Steve Henson]
6284
6285 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
6286 the 'enc' command.
6287 [Steve Henson]
6288
6289 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
6290 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
6291 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
6292 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
6293 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
6294 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
6295 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
6296 [Richard Levitte]
6297
6298 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
6299 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
6300 [Steve Henson]
6301
6302 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
6303 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
6304 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
6305 manpages and fix a few bugs.
6306 [Steve Henson]
6307
6308 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
6309 [Steve Henson]
6310
6311 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
6312 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
6313 [Steve Henson]
6314
6315 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
6316 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
6317 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
6318 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
6319 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
6320 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
6321 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
6322 using the new 'x509' options.
6323
6324 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
6325 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
6326 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
6327 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
6328 for all purposes.
6329 [Steve Henson]
6330
6331 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
6332 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
6333 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
6334 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
6335 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
6336 [Mark Cox]
6337
6338 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
6339 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
6340 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
6341 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
6342 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
6343 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
6344 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
6345 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
6346 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
6347 the key length and effective key length are equal.
6348 [Steve Henson]
6349
6350 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
6351 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
6352 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
6353 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
6354 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
6355 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
6356 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
6357 [Steve Henson]
6358
6359 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
6360 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
6361 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
6362 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
6363 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
6364 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
6365 openssl.cnf for more info.
6366 [Steve Henson]
6367
6368 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
6369 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
6370 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
6371 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
6372 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
6373 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
6374 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
6375 md should be large enough anyway.
6376 [Bodo Moeller]
6377
6378 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
6379 for handling the random seed file.
6380
6381 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
6382 ca,
6383 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
6384 s_client,
6385 s_server,
6386 x509 (when signing).
6387 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
6388 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
6389 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
6390
6391 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
6392 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
6393 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
6394 that support '-rand'.
6395 [Bodo Moeller]
6396
6397 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
6398 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
6399 [Bodo Moeller]
6400
6401 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
6402 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
6403 [Bill Perry]
6404
6405 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
6406 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
6407 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
6408 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
6409 is suitable.
6410 [Steve Henson]
6411
6412 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
6413 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
6414 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
6415 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
6416 [Steve Henson]
6417
6418 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
6419 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
6420 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
6421 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
6422 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
6423 print out all the purposes.
6424 [Steve Henson]
6425
6426 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
6427 functions.
6428 [Steve Henson]
6429
6430 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
6431 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
6432 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
6433 single function call.
6434 [Steve Henson]
6435
6436 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
6437 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
6438 [Andy Polyakov]
6439
6440 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
6441 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
6442 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
6443 [Steve Henson]
6444
6445 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
6446 when producing the local key id.
6447 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6448
6449 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
6450 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
6451 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
6452 "server.pem".
6453 [Steve Henson]
6454
6455 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
6456 a public key to be input or output. For example:
6457 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
6458 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
6459 [Steve Henson]
6460
6461 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
6462 in the message. This was handled by allowing
6463 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
6464 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
6465
6466 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
6467 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
6468 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
6469 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6470
6471 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
6472 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
6473 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
6474 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
6475 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
6476 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
6477 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
6478 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
6479 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
6480 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
6481 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
6482 trivial: move one line.
6483 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
6484
6485 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
6486 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
6487 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
6488 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
6489 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
6490 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
6491 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
6492 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
6493 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
6494 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
6495 with an event loop for example.
6496 [Steve Henson]
6497
6498 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
6499 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
6500 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
6501 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
6502 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
6503 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
6504 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
6505 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
6506 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
6507 [Steve Henson]
6508
6509 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
6510 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
6511 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
6512 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
6513 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
6514 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
6515 [Steve Henson]
6516
6517 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
6518 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
6519 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
6520 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
6521
6522 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
6523 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
6524 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
6525 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
6526 key generation.
6527 [Steve Henson]
6528
6529 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
6530 (still largely untested)
6531 [Bodo Moeller]
6532
6533 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
6534 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
6535 [Steve Henson]
6536
6537 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
6538 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
6539 [Steve Henson]
6540
6541 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
6542 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
6543 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
6544 [Bodo Moeller]
6545
6546 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
6547 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
6548 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
6549 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
6550 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
6551 [Steve Henson]
6552
6553 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
6554 [Andy Polyakov]
6555
6556 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
6557 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
6558 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
6559 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
6560 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
6561 in ca.
6562 [Steve Henson]
6563
6564 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
6565 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
6566 1.OU="Unit name 1"
6567 2.OU="Unit name 2"
6568 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
6569 [Steve Henson]
6570
6571 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
6572 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
6573 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
6574 are otherwise ignored at present.
6575 [Steve Henson]
6576
6577 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
6578 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
6579 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
6580 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
6581 copied until the next read.
6582 [Steve Henson]
6583
6584 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
6585 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
6586 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
6587 [Steve Henson]
6588
6589 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
6590 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
6591 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
6592 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
6593 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
6594 associated functions.
6595 [Steve Henson]
6596
6597 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
6598 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
6599 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
6600 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
6601 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
6602 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
6603 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
6604 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
6605 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
6606 memory BIOs.
6607 [Steve Henson]
6608
6609 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
6610 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
6611 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
6612 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
6613 [Bodo Moeller]
6614
6615 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
6616 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
6617 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
6618 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
6619 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
6620 functionality.
6621 [Steve Henson]
6622
6623 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
6624 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
6625 under Win32.
6626 [Steve Henson]
6627
6628 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
6629 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
6630 extensions to be obtained and added.
6631 [Steve Henson]
6632
6633 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
6634 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
6635 [Bodo Moeller]
6636
6637 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
6638
6639 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
6640 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6641
6642 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
6643 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
6644
6645 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
6646 program.
6647 [Steve Henson]
6648
6649 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
6650 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
6651 DH parameters contain its length).
6652
6653 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
6654 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
6655 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
6656 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
6657 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
6658 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
6659 utter importance to use
6660 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
6661 or
6662 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
6663 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
6664 attacks may become possible!
6665 [Bodo Moeller]
6666
6667 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
6668 [Bodo Moeller]
6669
6670 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
6671 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
6672 [Steve Henson]
6673
6674 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
6675 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
6676 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
6677 or long name.
6678 [Steve Henson]
6679
6680 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
6681 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
6682 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
6683 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
6684 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
6685 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
6686 private key operations.
6687 [Steve Henson]
6688
6689 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
6690 [Andy Polyakov]
6691
6692 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
6693 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
6694 to
6695 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
6696 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
6697 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
6698 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
6699 the password callback is called.
6700 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
6701
6702 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
6703
6704 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
6705 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
6706 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
6707 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
6708 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
6709 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
6710 this will work.
6711
6712 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
6713 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
6714 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
6715 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
6716 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
6717 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
6718 [Bodo Moeller]
6719
6720 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
6721 [Andy Polyakov]
6722
6723 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
6724 delete an unused file.
6725 [Ulf Möller]
6726
6727 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
6728 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
6729 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
6730 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
6731 [Steve Henson]
6732
6733 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
6734 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
6735 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
6736 of an error.
6737 [Bodo Moeller]
6738
6739 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
6740 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
6741 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6742
6743 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
6744 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
6745 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
6746 comparison" warnings.
6747 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
6748 [Steve Henson]
6749
6750 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
6751 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
6752 derived keys are printed to stderr.
6753 [Steve Henson]
6754
6755 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
6756 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
6757
6758 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
6759 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
6760
6761 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
6762 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
6763 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
6764
6765 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
6766 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
6767 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
6768 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
6769 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
6770 this bug.
6771 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
6772
6773 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
6774 The interface is as follows:
6775 Applications can use
6776 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
6777 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
6778 "off" is now the default.
6779 The library internally uses
6780 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
6781 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
6782 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
6783
6784 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
6785 even the default) are now avoided.
6786
6787 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
6788 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
6789 than just having a counter.
6790
6791 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
6792
6793 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
6794 extensions.
6795 [Bodo Moeller]
6796
6797 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
6798 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
6799 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
6800 Initial "mode" flags are:
6801
6802 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
6803 a single record has been written.
6804 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
6805 retries use the same buffer location.
6806 (But all of the contents must be
6807 copied!)
6808 [Bodo Moeller]
6809
6810 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
6811 worked.
6812
6813 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
6814 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
6815
6816 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
6817 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
6818 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
6819 [Steve Henson]
6820
6821 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
6822 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
6823 test programs.
6824 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
6825
6826 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
6827 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
6828 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
6829 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
6830 point to the end.
6831 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
6832 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
6833
6834 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
6835 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
6836 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
6837 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
6838 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
6839 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
6840 [Steve Henson]
6841
6842 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
6843 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
6844 necessary function names.
6845 [Steve Henson]
6846
6847 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
6848 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
6849 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
6850 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
6851 [Bodo Moeller]
6852
6853 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
6854 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
6855 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
6856 [Steve Henson]
6857
6858 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
6859 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
6860 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
6861 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
6862 such programs?)
6863 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
6864 need locks.
6865 [Bodo Moeller]
6866
6867 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
6868 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
6869 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
6870 [Bodo Moeller]
6871
6872 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
6873 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
6874 appropriate.
6875 [Bodo Moeller]
6876
6877 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
6878 for the encoded length.
6879 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
6880
6881 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
6882 [Steve Henson]
6883
6884 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
6885 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
6886 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
6887 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
6888 [Steve Henson]
6889
6890 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
6891 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
6892 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6893
6894 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
6895 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
6896 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
6897 unusual formatting.
6898 [Steve Henson]
6899
6900 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
6901 to use the new extension code.
6902 [Steve Henson]
6903
6904 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
6905 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
6906 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
6907 constant.
6908 [Steve Henson]
6909
6910 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
6911 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
6912 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
6913 [Bodo Moeller]
6914
6915 #if 0
6916 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
6917 [Ben Laurie]
6918 #else
6919 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
6920 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
6921 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
6922 #endif
6923
6924 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
6925 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
6926 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
6927 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
6928 [Ben Laurie]
6929
6930 *) DES library cleanups.
6931 [Ulf Möller]
6932
6933 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
6934 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
6935 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
6936 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
6937 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
6938 of v2.0.
6939 [Steve Henson]
6940
6941 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
6942 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
6943 [Bodo Moeller]
6944
6945 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
6946 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
6947 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
6948 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
6949 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
6950 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
6951 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
6952 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
6953 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
6954 [Steve Henson]
6955
6956 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
6957 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
6958 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
6959 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
6960 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
6961 value doesn't matter.
6962 [Steve Henson]
6963
6964 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
6965 support mutable.
6966 [Ben Laurie]
6967
6968 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
6969 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
6970 "linux-sparc" configuration.
6971 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
6972
6973 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
6974 [Ulf Möller]
6975
6976 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
6977 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
6978 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
6979
6980 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
6981 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
6982
6983 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
6984 [Ben Laurie]
6985
6986 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
6987 [Ben Laurie]
6988
6989 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
6990 [Ben Laurie]
6991
6992 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
6993 [Bodo Moeller]
6994
6995
6996 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
6997
6998 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
6999
7000 *) Updated some demos.
7001 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
7002
7003 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
7004 [Wu Zhigang]
7005
7006 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
7007 [Steve Henson]
7008
7009 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
7010 [Steve Henson]
7011
7012 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
7013 instead of using a fixed path.
7014 [Bodo Moeller]
7015
7016 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
7017 [Andy Polyakov]
7018
7019 *) Improvements for VMS support.
7020 [Richard Levitte]
7021
7022
7023 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
7024
7025 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
7026 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
7027 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7028
7029 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
7030 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
7031 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
7032 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
7033 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
7034 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
7035 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
7036 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
7037 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
7038 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
7039 [Steve Henson]
7040
7041 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
7042 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
7043 [Steve Henson]
7044
7045 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
7046 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
7047 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
7048 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
7049 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
7050
7051 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
7052 [Bodo Moeller]
7053
7054 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
7055 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
7056 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
7057 [Steve Henson]
7058
7059 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
7060 [Ben Laurie]
7061
7062 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
7063 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
7064 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
7065 key elements as negative integers.
7066 [Steve Henson]
7067
7068 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
7069 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7070
7071 *) VMS support.
7072 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
7073
7074 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
7075 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
7076 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
7077 [Steve Henson]
7078
7079 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
7080 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
7081 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
7082 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
7083 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
7084 [Bodo Moeller]
7085
7086 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
7087 [Ulf Möller]
7088
7089 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
7090 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
7091 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
7092 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7093
7094 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
7095 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
7096 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
7097
7098 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
7099 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
7100 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
7101 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
7102 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
7103 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
7104 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
7105 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
7106 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
7107
7108 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
7109 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
7110 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
7111 does not influence s as it used to.
7112
7113 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
7114 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
7115 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
7116 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
7117 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
7118 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
7119 [Bodo Moeller]
7120
7121 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
7122 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
7123 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
7124 key type.
7125 [Steve Henson]
7126
7127 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
7128 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
7129 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
7130 and 'x509').
7131 [Steve Henson]
7132
7133 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
7134 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
7135 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
7136 extension option.
7137 [Steve Henson]
7138
7139 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
7140 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
7141 [Ben Laurie]
7142
7143 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
7144 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7145
7146 *) Support Mingw32.
7147 [Ulf Möller]
7148
7149 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
7150 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7151
7152 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
7153 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7154
7155 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
7156 [Ulf Möller]
7157
7158 *) Update HPUX configuration.
7159 [Anonymous]
7160
7161 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
7162 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7163
7164 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
7165 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
7166 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
7167 DER-encoded.)
7168 [Bodo Moeller]
7169
7170 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
7171 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
7172 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
7173 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
7174 now it really counts the depth.
7175 [Bodo Moeller]
7176
7177 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
7178 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
7179 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
7180 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
7181 didn't match the private key).
7182
7183 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
7184 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
7185 connection using the SSL_CTX).
7186 [Bodo Moeller]
7187
7188 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
7189 [Ulf Möller]
7190
7191 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
7192 David Harris.
7193 [Bodo Moeller]
7194
7195 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
7196 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
7197 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
7198 [Bodo Moeller]
7199
7200 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
7201 [Bodo Moeller]
7202
7203 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
7204 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
7205 such as /usr/local/bin.
7206 [Bodo Moeller]
7207
7208 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
7209 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7210
7211 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
7212 [Ulf Möller]
7213
7214 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
7215 extension adding in x509 utility.
7216 [Steve Henson]
7217
7218 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
7219 [Ulf Möller]
7220
7221 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
7222 prototypes.
7223 [Steve Henson]
7224
7225 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
7226 [Ulf Möller]
7227
7228 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
7229 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
7230 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
7231 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
7232 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
7233 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
7234 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
7235 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
7236 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
7237 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
7238 [Steve Henson]
7239
7240 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
7241 [Bodo Moeller]
7242
7243 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
7244 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
7245 [Bodo Moeller]
7246
7247 *) Fix some race conditions.
7248 [Bodo Moeller]
7249
7250 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
7251 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
7252 [Steve Henson]
7253
7254 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
7255 [Ulf Möller]
7256
7257 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
7258 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
7259 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
7260 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
7261
7262 *) Fix lots of warnings.
7263 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7264
7265 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
7266 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
7267 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7268
7269 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
7270 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7271
7272 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
7273 [Ulf Möller]
7274
7275 *) Fix typos in error codes.
7276 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
7277
7278 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
7279 [Ulf Möller]
7280
7281 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
7282 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7283
7284 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
7285 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
7286 [Steve Henson]
7287
7288 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
7289 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
7290 [Ben Laurie]
7291
7292 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
7293 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
7294 [Steve Henson]
7295
7296 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
7297 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
7298 [Steve Henson]
7299
7300 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
7301 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
7302 [Steve Henson]
7303
7304 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
7305 support typesafe stack.
7306 [Steve Henson]
7307
7308 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
7309 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
7310
7311 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
7312 old X509V3 handling code.
7313 [Steve Henson]
7314
7315 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
7316 [Ulf Möller]
7317
7318 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
7319 [Bodo Moeller]
7320
7321 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
7322 [Ben Laurie]
7323
7324 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
7325 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
7326
7327 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
7328 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
7329 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
7330 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
7331 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
7332 [Ben Laurie]
7333
7334 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
7335 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
7336 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
7337 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
7338 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
7339
7340 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
7341 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
7342 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
7343 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7344
7345 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
7346 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
7347 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
7348 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7349
7350 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
7351 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
7352 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
7353 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
7354 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
7355 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
7356 [Bodo Moeller]
7357
7358 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
7359 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
7360 [Bodo Moeller]
7361
7362 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
7363 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
7364 [Ulf Möller]
7365
7366 *) Tweaks to Configure
7367 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7368
7369 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
7370 yet...
7371 [Steve Henson]
7372
7373 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
7374 [Ulf Möller]
7375
7376 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
7377 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
7378 [Ulf Möller]
7379
7380 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
7381 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
7382 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
7383 [Bodo Moeller]
7384
7385 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
7386 [Bodo Moeller]
7387
7388 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
7389 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
7390 [Steve Henson]
7391
7392 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
7393 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
7394 to library startup routines.
7395 [Steve Henson]
7396
7397 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
7398 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
7399 codes along the way.
7400 [Steve Henson]
7401
7402 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
7403 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
7404 objects to objects.h
7405 [Steve Henson]
7406
7407 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
7408 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
7409 [Steve Henson]
7410
7411 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
7412 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
7413
7414 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
7415 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
7416 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
7417
7418 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
7419 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
7420 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7421
7422 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
7423 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
7424 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
7425
7426
7427 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
7428
7429 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
7430 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
7431 [Ben Laurie]
7432
7433 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
7434 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
7435 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
7436 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
7437 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
7438
7439 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
7440 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
7441 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
7442 document.
7443 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7444
7445 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
7446 Malloc, Free.
7447 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
7448
7449 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
7450 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7451
7452 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
7453 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
7454 if someone would make that last step automatic.
7455 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
7456
7457 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
7458 [Ben Laurie]
7459
7460 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
7461 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
7462 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
7463 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
7464 [Steve Henson]
7465
7466 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
7467 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
7468 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
7469 [Steve Henson]
7470
7471 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
7472 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
7473 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
7474 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
7475 installed as `perl').
7476 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7477
7478 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
7479 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7480
7481 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
7482 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
7483 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
7484 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
7485 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
7486 [Steve Henson]
7487
7488 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
7489 [Ben Laurie]
7490
7491 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
7492 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
7493 is horrible: I feel ill....
7494 [Steve Henson]
7495
7496 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
7497 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
7498 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
7499 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
7500 [Steve Henson]
7501
7502 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
7503 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7504
7505 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
7506 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
7507 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
7508 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7509
7510 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
7511 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
7512 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
7513 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
7514 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
7515 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
7516 openssl_bio.xs.
7517 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7518
7519 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
7520 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
7521
7522 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
7523 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
7524
7525 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
7526 [Ben Laurie]
7527
7528 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
7529 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
7530 in CRLs.
7531 [Steve Henson]
7532
7533 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
7534 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
7535 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
7536 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
7537 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
7538 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
7539 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
7540 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
7541 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
7542 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
7543 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7544
7545 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
7546 [Ben Laurie]
7547
7548 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
7549 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
7550 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
7551 for linking it into DSOs.
7552 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7553
7554 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
7555 Fixed.
7556 [Ben Laurie]
7557
7558 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
7559 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
7560 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
7561 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
7562 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
7563 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7564
7565 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
7566 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
7567 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
7568 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
7569 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
7570 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
7571 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7572
7573 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
7574 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
7575 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
7576 encryption.
7577 [Ben Laurie]
7578
7579 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
7580 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
7581 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
7582 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
7583 [Steve Henson]
7584
7585 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
7586 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
7587 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
7588 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
7589 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
7590 field as blank.
7591 [Steve Henson]
7592
7593 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
7594 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
7595 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
7596 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
7597 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7598
7599 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
7600 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
7601 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
7602
7603 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
7604 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
7605
7606 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
7607 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
7608 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
7609 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
7610 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
7611 [Steve Henson]
7612
7613 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
7614 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
7615 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
7616 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
7617 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
7618 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
7619 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
7620 [Ben Laurie]
7621
7622 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
7623 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
7624 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
7625 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
7626 [Ben Laurie]
7627
7628 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
7629 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
7630
7631 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
7632 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
7633 [Steve Henson]
7634
7635 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
7636 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
7637 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
7638 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
7639 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
7640 (e.g. s_server).
7641 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
7642 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
7643 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
7644 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
7645 no way to reconfigure them.
7646 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
7647 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
7648 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
7649 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
7650 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
7651 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7652
7653 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
7654 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
7655 recognized by the users.
7656 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7657
7658 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
7659 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
7660 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
7661 already masked variable.
7662 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7663
7664 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
7665 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7666
7667 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
7668 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
7669 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
7670 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7671
7672 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
7673 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
7674 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7675
7676 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
7677 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
7678 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
7679 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
7680 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
7681 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
7682 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
7683 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
7684 now, too.
7685 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7686
7687 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
7688 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
7689 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7690
7691 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
7692 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
7693 config file.
7694 [Steve Henson]
7695
7696 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
7697 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
7698
7699 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
7700 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
7701 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
7702 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
7703 [Ben Laurie]
7704
7705 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
7706 [Steve Henson]
7707
7708 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
7709 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7710
7711 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
7712 [Ben Laurie]
7713
7714 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
7715 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
7716 [Steve Henson]
7717
7718 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
7719 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
7720 [Steve Henson]
7721
7722 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
7723 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
7724 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
7725 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
7726 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
7727 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
7728 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
7729 Ben Laurie]
7730
7731 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
7732 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7733
7734 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
7735 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
7736 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
7737 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
7738 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7739
7740 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
7741 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
7742 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
7743 [Steve Henson]
7744
7745 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
7746 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
7747 an example.
7748 [Steve Henson]
7749
7750 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
7751 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
7752 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
7753
7754 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
7755 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
7756 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
7757 build instructions.
7758 [Steve Henson]
7759
7760 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
7761 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
7762 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
7763 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
7764 [Steve Henson]
7765
7766 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
7767 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
7768 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
7769 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
7770 [Ben Laurie]
7771
7772 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
7773 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
7774 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
7775 so it wasn't spotted.
7776 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
7777
7778 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
7779 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
7780 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
7781 vectors if you have them.
7782 [Ben Laurie]
7783
7784 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
7785 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
7786 [Ben Laurie]
7787
7788 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
7789 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
7790 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
7791 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
7792 If you do a:
7793 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
7794 it will update them.
7795 [Steve Henson]
7796
7797 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
7798 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
7799 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
7800 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
7801 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
7802 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
7803 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
7804 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7805
7806 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
7807 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
7808 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
7809 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
7810 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
7811 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
7812 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
7813 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
7814 the crypto/md/ stuff).
7815 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7816
7817 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
7818 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
7819 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
7820 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
7821 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
7822 [Steve Henson]
7823
7824 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
7825 INTEGER code.
7826 [Steve Henson]
7827
7828 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
7829 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7830
7831 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
7832 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7833
7834 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
7835 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
7836 [Ben Laurie]
7837
7838 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
7839 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
7840
7841 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
7842 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
7843
7844 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
7845 [Steve Henson]
7846
7847 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
7848 few typos.
7849 [Steve Henson]
7850
7851 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
7852 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
7853 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
7854 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7855
7856 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
7857 [Steve Henson]
7858
7859 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
7860 [Steve Henson]
7861
7862 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
7863 [Steve Henson]
7864
7865 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
7866 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
7867 [Steve Henson]
7868
7869 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
7870 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
7871 CA extensions.
7872 [Steve Henson]
7873
7874 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
7875 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
7876 [Steve Henson]
7877
7878 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
7879 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
7880 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
7881 [Steve Henson]
7882
7883 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
7884 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
7885 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
7886 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
7887 properly to be processed.
7888 [Steve Henson]
7889
7890 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
7891 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
7892 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
7893 [Ben Laurie]
7894
7895 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
7896 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
7897
7898 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
7899 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
7900 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
7901 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
7902 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
7903 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
7904 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
7905 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
7906 or delete all the .err files.
7907 [Steve Henson]
7908
7909 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
7910 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
7911 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
7912 to regenerate it if needed.
7913 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
7914 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
7915
7916 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
7917 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7918
7919 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
7920 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
7921 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
7922 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
7923 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
7924 [Steve Henson]
7925
7926 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
7927 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7928
7929 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
7930 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
7931
7932 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
7933 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
7934 error, but didn't set one).
7935 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
7936
7937 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
7938 [Ben Laurie]
7939
7940 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
7941 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
7942 [Steve Henson]
7943
7944 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
7945 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
7946
7947 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
7948 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
7949 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
7950 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
7951 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
7952 OID is not part of the table.
7953 [Steve Henson]
7954
7955 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
7956 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
7957 [Ben Laurie]
7958
7959 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
7960 [Ben Laurie]
7961
7962 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
7963 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
7964 was "1234").
7965 [Steve Henson]
7966
7967 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
7968 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
7969
7970 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
7971 NULL pointers.
7972 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
7973
7974 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
7975 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
7976
7977 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
7978 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
7979
7980 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
7981 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
7982
7983 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
7984 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
7985 [Ben Laurie]
7986
7987 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
7988 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
7989 [Steve Henson]
7990
7991 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
7992 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7993
7994 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
7995 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7996
7997 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
7998 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7999
8000 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
8001 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8002
8003 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
8004 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
8005 unused in the certificate verification process.
8006 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8007
8008 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
8009 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
8010 [Steve Henson]
8011
8012 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
8013 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
8014 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
8015
8016 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
8017 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
8018 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
8019 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
8020 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
8021
8022 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
8023 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
8024 [Steve Henson]
8025
8026 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
8027 [Steve Henson]
8028
8029 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
8030 [Paul Sutton]
8031
8032 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
8033 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
8034
8035 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
8036 [Ben Laurie]
8037
8038 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
8039 [Ben Laurie]
8040
8041 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
8042 [Ben Laurie]
8043
8044 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
8045 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
8046 other error libraries.
8047 [Steve Henson]
8048
8049 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
8050 [Steve Henson]
8051
8052 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
8053 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
8054 be read in.
8055 [Steve Henson]
8056
8057 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
8058 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
8059 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
8060 the new set of documenation files.
8061 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8062
8063 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
8064 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
8065 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
8066 number of arguments.
8067 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
8068
8069 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
8070 [Ben Laurie]
8071
8072 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
8073 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
8074 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8075
8076 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
8077 [Ben Laurie]
8078
8079 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
8080 nextstep
8081 ncr-scde
8082 unixware-2.0
8083 unixware-2.0-pentium
8084 sco5-cc.
8085 [Ben Laurie]
8086
8087 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
8088 before they are needed.
8089 [Ben Laurie]
8090
8091 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
8092 [Ben Laurie]
8093
8094
8095 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
8096
8097 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
8098 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
8099 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8100
8101 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
8102 [Paul Sutton]
8103
8104 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
8105 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
8106 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8107
8108 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
8109 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
8110 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
8111
8112 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
8113 when "ssleay" is still not found.
8114 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8115
8116 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
8117 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
8118
8119 *) Updated the README file.
8120 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8121
8122 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
8123 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
8124 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8125
8126 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
8127 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
8128 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8129
8130 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
8131 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
8132 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
8133 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
8134 o removed obsolete TODO file
8135 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
8136 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8137
8138 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
8139 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
8140 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
8141 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
8142 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
8143 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
8144 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8145
8146 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
8147 [Mark J. Cox]
8148
8149 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
8150 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
8151 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
8152 summer 1998.
8153 [The OpenSSL Project]
8154
8155
8156 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
8157
8158 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
8159 [Eric A. Young]
8160
8161 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
