4
5 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 [xx XXX 2002]
6
7 *) Add more WAP/WTLS elliptic curve OIDs.
8 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
9
10 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
11 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
12 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
13
14 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
15 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
16
17 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
18 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
19 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
20 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
21 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
22
23 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
24 functions
25 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
26 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
27 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
28 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
29 These control ASN1 encoding details:
30 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
31 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
32 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
33 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
34 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
35 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
36 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
37
38 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
39 functions
40 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
41 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
42 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
43 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
44 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
45
46 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
47 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
48 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
49 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
50
51 *) Add functions
52 EC_POINT_point2bn()
53 EC_POINT_bn2point()
54 EC_POINT_point2hex()
55 EC_POINT_hex2point()
56 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
57 EC_POINT_oct2point().
58 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
59
60 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
61 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
62 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
63 EC_GROUP_get_order()
64 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
65 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
66 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
67 adding different types of curves.
68 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
69
70 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
71 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
72 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
73 [Bodo Moeller]
74
75 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
76 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
77
78 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
79 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
80 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
81 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
82
83 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
84
85 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
86 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
87
88 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
89 library. Most notably,
90 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
91 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
92 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
93 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
94 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
95 extracted before the specific public key.
96 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
97
98 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
99 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. The curves can be obtained from the new
100 functions
101 EC_GROUP_new_by_nid()
102 EC_GROUP_new_by_name()
103 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
104 accessed via
105 EC_GROUP_set_nid()
106 EC_GROUP_get_nid()
107 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
108
109 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.7 [XX xxx 2002]
110
111 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
112 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
113 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
114 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
115
116 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
117 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
118 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
119
120 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
121 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
122 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
123 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
124
125 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
126 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
127 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
128 some local tweaks:
129
130 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
131 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
132 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
133 mkdir -p objtree/`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`
134 cd objtree/`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`
135 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f -o -type l) | while read F; do
136 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
137 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
138 done
139
140 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
141 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
142 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
143 [Richard Levitte]
144
145 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
146 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
147 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
148 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
149 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
150
151 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
152 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
153
154 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
155 error in AES-CFB decryption.
156 [Richard Levitte]
157
158 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
159 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
160 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
161 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
162 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
163 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
164 [Steve Henson]
165
166 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
167 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
168 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
169 [Steve Henson]
170
171 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
172 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
173 [Lutz Jaenicke]
174
175 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
176 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
177 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
178 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
179 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
180 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
181 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
182 [Lutz Jaenicke]
183
184 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
185 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
186 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
187 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
188 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
189 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
190 [Steve Henson]
191
192 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
193 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
194 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
195 declaration has been changed from
196 int (*cb)()
197 into
198 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
199 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
200 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
201 has been changed into
202 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
203
204 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
205 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
206 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
207
208 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
209 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
210
211 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
212 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
213 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
214 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
215 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
216 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
217 always load it have also been added.
218 [Steve Henson]
219
220 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
221 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
222 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
223
224 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
225
226 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
227 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
228 because it couldn't be used for anything.
229
230 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
231 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
232 command line option can be used to specify an
233 alternative file.
234 [Steve Henson]
235
236 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
237 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
238 [Steve Henson]
239
240 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
241 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
242 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
243 [Steve Henson]
244
245 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
246 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
247 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
248 to work with the new engine framework.
249 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
250
251 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
252 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
253 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
254 to work with the new engine framework.
255 [Richard Levitte]
256
257 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
258 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
259 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
260
261 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
262 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
263
264 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
265 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
266 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
267 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
268 FORMAT_IISSGC.
269 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
270
271 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
272 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
273
274 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
275 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
276
277 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
278 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
279 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
280 [Ben Laurie]
281
282 *) Add new functions
283 ERR_peek_last_error
284 ERR_peek_last_error_line
285 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
286 These are similar to
287 ERR_peek_error
288 ERR_peek_error_line
289 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
290 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
291 still in the error queue.
292 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
293
294 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
295 like:
296 default_algorithms = ALL
297 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
298 [Steve Henson]
299
300 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
301 [Steve Henson]
302
303 *) New experimental application configuration code.
304 [Steve Henson]
305
306 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
307 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
308 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
309 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
310
311 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
312 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
313
314 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
315 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
316
317 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
318 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
319 [Bodo Moeller]
320
321 *) New functions/macros
322
323 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
324 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
325 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
326 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
327
328 to request calling a callback function
329
330 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
331 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
332
333 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
334 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
335 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
336 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
337 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
338 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
339 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
340 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
341 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
342 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
343
344 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
345 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
346 [Bodo Moeller]
347
348 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
349 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
350 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
351 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
352 the configuration scripts.
353
354 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
355 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
356 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
357
358 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
359 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
360
361 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
362 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
363 when reusing an existing buffer.
364 [Bodo Moeller]
365
366 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
367 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
368 [Steve Henson]
369
370 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
371 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
372 [Ben Laurie]
373
374 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
375 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
376 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
377 has the same effect.
378 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
379
380 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
381 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
382 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
383 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
384 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
385 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
386 exception.
387
388 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
389 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
390 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
391 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
392
393 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
394 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
395 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
396 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
397
398 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
399 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
400 won't work.
401
402 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
403 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
404 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
405 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
406 default), and then completely removed.
407 [Richard Levitte]
408
409 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
410 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
411 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
412 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
413 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
414 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
415 particular extension is supported.
416 [Steve Henson]
417
418 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
419 to retain compatibility with existing code.
420 [Steve Henson]
421
422 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
423 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
424 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
425 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
426 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
427 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
428 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
429 requires the destination to be valid.
430
431 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
432 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
433 [Steve Henson]
434
435 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
436 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
437 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
438 [Bodo Moeller]
439
440 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
441 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
442
443 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
444 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
445 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
446 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
447 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
448 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
449 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
450 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
451 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
452 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
453 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
454 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
455 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
456 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
457 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
458 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
459 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
460 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
461 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
462 the new code.
463 [Geoff Thorpe]
464
465 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
466 [Steve Henson]
467
468 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
469 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
470 become part of libeay.num as well.
471 [Richard Levitte]
472
473 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
474 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
475 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
476 false once a handshake has been completed.
477 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
478 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
479 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
480 client has followed the request.)
481 [Bodo Moeller]
482
483 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
484 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
485 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
486 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
487
488 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
489 more bits available for options that should not be part of
490 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
491 [Bodo Moeller]
492
493 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
494 [Steve Henson]
495
496 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
497 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
498 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
499 [Lutz Jaenicke]
500
501 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
502 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
503 [Lutz Jaenicke]
504
505 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
506 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
507 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
508 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
509 [Geoff Thorpe]
510
511 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
512 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
513 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
514 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
515 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
516 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
517 [Geoff Thorpe]
518
519 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
520 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
521 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
522 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
523 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
524 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
525 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
526 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
527 [Geoff Thorpe]
528
529 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
530 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
531 [Geoff Thorpe]
532
533 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
534 [Ben Laurie]
535
536 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
537 md_data void pointer.
538 [Ben Laurie]
539
540 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
541 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
542 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
543 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
544 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
545 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
546 [Ben Laurie]
547
548 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
549 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
550 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
551 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
552 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
553 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
554 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
555 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
556 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
557 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
558 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
559 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
560 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
561 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
562 rather than letting it slide.
563
564 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
565 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
566 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
567 [Geoff Thorpe]
568
569 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
570 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
571 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
572 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
573 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
574 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
575 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
576 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
577 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
578 [Geoff Thorpe]
579
580 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
581 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
582 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
583 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
584 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
585
586 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
587 [Geoff Thorpe]
588
589 *) Add EVP test program.
590 [Ben Laurie]
591
592 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
593 [Ben Laurie]
594
595 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
596 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
597 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
598 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
599 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
600 [Steve Henson]
601
602 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
603 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
604 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
605 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
606 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
607 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
608 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
609
610 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
611 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
612 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
613 Usage example:
614
615 EVP_MD_CTX md;
616
617 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
618 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
619 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
620 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
621 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
622
623 [Ben Laurie]
624
625 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
626 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
627 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
628 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
629 anyway): E.g.,
630
631 des_key_schedule ks;
632
633 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
634 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
635
636 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
637 [Ben Laurie]
638
639 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
640 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
641 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
642 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
643 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
644 functions prevents this.
645 [Steve Henson]
646
647 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
648 [Ben Laurie]
649
650 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
651 correct _ecb suffix.
652 [Ben Laurie]
653
654 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
655 revocation information is handled using the text based index
656 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
657 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
658 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
659 [Steve Henson]
660
661 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
662 [Richard Levitte]
663
664 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
665 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
666 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
667 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
668
669 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
670 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
671
672 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
673 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
674 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
675 via Richard Levitte]
676
677 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
678 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
679 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
680 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
681 [Geoff Thorpe]
682
683 *) Speed up EVP routines.
684 Before:
685 encrypt
686 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
687 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
688 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
689 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k
690 decrypt
691 des-cbc 3482.66k 5069.49k 5496.39k 5614.16k 5639.28k
692 des-cbc 3480.74k 5068.76k 5510.34k 5609.87k 5635.52k
693 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
694 After:
695 encrypt
696 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
697 decrypt
698 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
699 [Ben Laurie]
700
701 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
702 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
703
704 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
705 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
706 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
707 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
708 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
709 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
710 [Steve Henson]
711
712 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
713 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
714 [Richard Levitte]
715
716 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
717 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
718 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
719 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
720
721 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
722 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
723 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
724 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
725 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
726 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
727 callback.
728 [Richard Levitte]
729
730 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
731 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
732 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
733 and interrupts/cancellations.
734 [Richard Levitte]
735
736 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
737 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
738 [Steve Henson]
739
740 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
741 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
742 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
743
744 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
745 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
746 kind of callback.
747 [Richard Levitte]
748
749 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
750 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
751 than this minimum value is recommended.
752 [Lutz Jaenicke]
753
754 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
755 that are easily reachable.
756 [Richard Levitte]
757
758 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
759 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
760
761 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
762
763 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
764 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
765 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
766 needed for static libraries under Win32.
767 [Steve Henson]
768
769 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
770 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
771 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
772 [Steve Henson]
773
774 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
775 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
776 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
777 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
778 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
779 internally such as S/MIME.
780
781 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
782 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
783 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
784
785 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
786 applications.
787 [Steve Henson]
788
789 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
790 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
791 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
792 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
793
794 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
795
796 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
797
798 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
799 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
800 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
801 handling.
802 [Steve Henson]
803
804 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
805 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
806 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
807 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
808 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
809 a window system and the like.
810 [Richard Levitte]
811
812 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
813 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
814 [Geoff]
815
816 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
817 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
818 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
819 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
820 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
821 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
822 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
823 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
824 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
825 ENGINE structure.
826 [Geoff]
827
828 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
829 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
830 tag cache.
831 [Steve Henson]
832
833 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
834 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
835 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
836 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
837 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
838 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
839 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
840 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
841 [Geoff]
842
843 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
844 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
845 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
846 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
847 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
848 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
849 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
850 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
851 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
852 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
853 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
854 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
855 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
856 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
857 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
858 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
859 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
860 [Geoff]
861
862 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
863 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
864 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
865 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
866 internal engine_int.h header.
867 [Geoff]
868
869 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
870 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
871 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
872 modify their own ones).
873 [Geoff]
874
875 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
876 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
877 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
878 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
879 later on via ctrl() commands.
880 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
881 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
882 structural references.
883 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
884 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
885 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
886 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
887 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
888 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
889 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
890 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
891 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
892 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
893 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
894 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
895 [Geoff]
896
897 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
898 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
899 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
900 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
901 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
902 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
903 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
904 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
905 [Bodo Moeller]
906
907 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
908 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
909 [Steve Henson]
910
911 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
912 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
913 [Steve Henson]
914
915 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
916 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
917 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
918 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
919 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
920 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
921 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
922 [Steve Henson]
923
924 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
925 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
926 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
927 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
928 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
929
930 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
931 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
932 generator).
933 [Bodo Moeller]
934
935 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
936
937 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
938 operations and provides various method functions that can also
939 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
940
941 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
942 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
943
944 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
945 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
946 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
947
948 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
949 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
950
951 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
952 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
953
954 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
955
956 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
957 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
958 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
959 [Bodo Moeller]
960
961 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
962 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
963 [Richard Levitte]
964
965 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
966 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
967 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
968 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
969 is 40 of more characters long.
970 [Steve Henson]
971
972 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
973 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
974 pointers.
975 [Steve Henson]
976
977 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
978 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
979 [Bodo Moeller]
980
981 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
982 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
983 might.
984 [Steve Henson]
985
986 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
987
988 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
989 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
990
991 ASN1 error codes
992 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
993 ...
994 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
995 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
996 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
997 ...
998 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
999 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
1000
1001 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
1002 [Bodo Moeller]
1003
1004 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
1005 suffices.
1006 [Bodo Moeller]
1007
1008 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
1009 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
1010 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
1011 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
1012 and
1013 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
1014
1015 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
1016 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
1017
1018 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
1019 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
1020 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
1021 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
1022 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
1023 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
1024
1025 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
1026 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
1027
1028 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
1029 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1030
1031 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
1032 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
1033
1034 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
1035 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
1036 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1037 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
1038
1039 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
1040 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
1041
1042 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
1043 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
1044
1045 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
1046 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
1047 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
1048 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
1049 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
1050 [Richard Levitte]
1051
1052 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
1053 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
1054 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
1055 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
1056 [Steve Henson]
1057
1058 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
1059 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
1060 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
1061 trust settings.
1062 [Steve Henson]
1063
1064 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
1065 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
1066 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
1067 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
1068 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
1069 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
1070 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
1071 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
1072 ocsp utility.
1073 [Steve Henson]
1074
1075 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
1076 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
1077 [Steve Henson]
1078
1079 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
1080 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
1081 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
1082 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
1083 [Steve Henson]
1084
1085 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
1086 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
1087 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
1088 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
1089 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
1090 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
1091 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
1092 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
1093 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
1094 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
1095 [Steve Henson]
1096
1097 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
1098 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
1099 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
1100 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
1101 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
1102 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
1103 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
1104 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
1105
1106 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
1107 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
1108 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
1109 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
1110 [Richard Levitte]
1111
1112 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
1113 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
1114 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
1115 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
1116 opensslconf.h.
1117 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
1118 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
1119 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
1120 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
1121 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
1122 what is available.
1123 [Richard Levitte]
1124
1125 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
1126 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
1127 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
1128 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
1129 auto incremented.
1130 [Steve Henson]
1131
1132 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
1133 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
1134 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
1135 [Steve Henson]
1136
1137 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
1138 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
1139 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
1140 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
1141 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
1142 [Steve Henson]
1143
1144 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
1145 [Steve Henson]
1146
1147 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
1148 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
1149 option to ocsp utility.
1150 [Steve Henson]
1151
1152 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
1153 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
1154 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
1155 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
1156 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
1157 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
1158 the request is nonce-less.
1159 [Steve Henson]
1160
1161 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
1162 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
1163 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
1164 [Bodo Moeller]
1165
1166 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
1167 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
1168 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
1169 [Steve Henson]
1170
1171 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
1172 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
1173 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
1174 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
1175 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
1176 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1177
1178 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
1179 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
1180 appear to exist.
1181 [Steve Henson]
1182
1183 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
1184 additional certificates supplied.
1185 [Steve Henson]
1186
1187 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
1188 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
1189 signature against.
1190 [Richard Levitte]
1191
1192 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
1193 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
1194 AES OIDs.
1195
1196 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
1197 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
1198 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
1199 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
1200 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
1201 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
1202 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
1203 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
1204 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1205
1206 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
1207 request to response.
1208 [Steve Henson]
1209
1210 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
1211 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
1212 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
1213 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
1214 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
1215 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
1216 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
1217 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
1218 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
1219 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
1220 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
1221 [Steve Henson]
1222
1223 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
1224 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
1225 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
1226 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
1227 [Steve Henson]
1228
1229 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
1230 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1231
1232 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
1233 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
1234 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
1235 [Steve Henson]
1236
1237 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
1238 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
1239 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
1240 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
1241 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1242
1243 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
1244 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
1245 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
1246 [Steve Henson]
1247
1248 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
1249 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
1250 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
1251 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
1252 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
1253 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
1254 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
1255 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1256
1257 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
1258 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
1259 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
1260 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
1261 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
1262 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
1263 [Steve Henson]
1264
1265 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
1266 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
1267 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
1268 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
1269 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
1270 printout format cleaned up.
1271 [Steve Henson]
1272
1273 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
1274 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
1275 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
1276 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
1277 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
1278 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
1279 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
1280 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
1281 [Steve Henson]
1282
1283 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
1284 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
1285 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
1286 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
1287 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
1288 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
1289 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
1290 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
1291 [Steve Henson]
1292
1293 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
1294 extensions from a separate configuration file.
1295 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
1296 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
1297 section to use.
1298 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1299
1300 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
1301 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
1302 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
1303 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
1304 [Steve Henson]
1305
1306 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
1307 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
1308 the given serial number (according to the index file).
1309 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
1310 in the index file.
1311 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1312
1313 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
1314 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
1315 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
1316 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1317
1318 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
1319 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
1320
1321 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
1322 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
1323 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
1324 [Steve Henson]
1325
1326 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
1327 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
1328 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
1329 [Bodo Moeller]
1330
1331 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
1332 file name and line number information in additional arguments
1333 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
1334 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
1335 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
1336 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
1337 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
1338 functions are provided:
1339
1340 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
1341 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
1342 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
1343 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
1344
1345 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
1346 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
1347 extended allocation function is enabled.
1348 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
1349 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
1350 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
1351
1352 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
1353 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
1354 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
1355 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
1356 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
1357 [Geoff Thorpe]
1358
1359 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
1360 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
1361 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
1362 be queried.
1363 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
1364 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
1365 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
1366 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1367
1368 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
1369 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
1370 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
1371 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
1372 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
1373 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
1374 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
1375 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
1376 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
1377 [Richard Levitte]
1378
1379 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
1380 provide utility functions which an application needing
1381 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
1382 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
1383 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
1384
1385 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
1386 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
1387 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
1388 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
1389 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
1390 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
1391 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
1392 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
1393 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
1394
1395 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
1396 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
1397 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
1398 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
1399 [Steve Henson]
1400
1401 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
1402 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
1403 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
1404 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
1405 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
1406 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
1407 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
1408 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
1409 will be added elsewhere.
1410 [Steve Henson]
1411
1412 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
1413 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
1414 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
1415 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
1416 [Steve Henson]
1417
1418 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
1419 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
1420 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
1421 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
1422 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
1423 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
1424 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
1425 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
1426 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
1427 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
1428 to produce the required SET OF.
1429 [Steve Henson]
1430
1431 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
1432 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
1433 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
1434 [Richard Levitte]
1435
1436 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
1437 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
1438 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
1439 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
1440 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
1441 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
1442 [Steve Henson]
1443
1444 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
1445 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
1446 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
1447 [Steve Henson]
1448
1449 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
1450 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
1451 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
1452 [Richard Levitte]
1453
1454 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
1455 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
1456 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
1457 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
1458 code will still work when these eventually go away.
1459 [Steve Henson]
1460
1461 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
1462 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
1463 [Steve Henson]
1464
1465 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
1466 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
1467 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
1468 certifcates and CRLs.
1469 [Steve Henson]
1470
1471 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
1472 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
1473 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
1474 [Steve Henson]
1475
1476 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
1477 entries for variables.
1478 [Steve Henson]
1479
1480 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
1481 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
1482 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
1483 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
1484 [Bodo Moeller]
1485
1486 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
1487 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
1488 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
1489 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
1490 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
1491 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
1492 [Bodo Moeller]
1493
1494 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
1495 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
1496
1497 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
1498 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
1499 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
1500 [Steve Henson]
1501
1502 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
1503 print routines.
1504 [Steve Henson]
1505
1506 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
1507 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
1508 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
1509 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
1510 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
1511 order did not reflect the encoded order.
1512 [Steve Henson]
1513
1514 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
1515 [Steve Henson]
1516
1517 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
1518 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
1519 for now but they will eventually go away.
1520 [Steve Henson]
1521
1522 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
1523 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
1524 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
1525 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
1526 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
1527 has also been converted to the new form.
1528 [Steve Henson]
1529
1530 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
1531 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
1532 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
1533 for negative moduli.
1534 [Bodo Moeller]
1535
1536 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
1537 of not touching the result's sign bit.
1538 [Bodo Moeller]
1539
1540 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
1541 set.
1542 [Bodo Moeller]
1543
1544 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
1545 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
1546 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
1547 type-specific callbacks.
1548 [Geoff Thorpe]
1549
1550 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
1551 RFC 2712.
1552 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
1553 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
1554
1555 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
1556 in sections depending on the subject.
1557 [Richard Levitte]
1558
1559 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
1560 Windows.
1561 [Richard Levitte]
1562
1563 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
1564 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
1565 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
1566 be handled deterministically).
1567 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1568
1569 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
1570 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
1571 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
1572 [Bodo Moeller]
1573
1574 *) New function BN_kronecker.
1575 [Bodo Moeller]
1576
1577 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
1578 positive unless both parameters are zero.
1579 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
1580 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
1581 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
1582 [Bodo Moeller]
1583
1584 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
1585 sign of the number in question.
1586
1587 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
1588
1589 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
1590 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
1591 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
1592 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
1593 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
1594 [Bodo Moeller]
1595
1596 *) New function BN_swap.
1597 [Bodo Moeller]
1598
1599 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
1600 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
1601 results on negative inputs.
1602 [Bodo Moeller]
1603
1604 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
1605 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
1606 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
1607 [Bodo Moeller]
1608
1609 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
1610 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
1611 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
1612 and add new functions:
1613
1614 BN_nnmod
1615 BN_mod_sqr
1616 BN_mod_add
1617 BN_mod_add_quick
1618 BN_mod_sub
1619 BN_mod_sub_quick
1620 BN_mod_lshift1
1621 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
1622 BN_mod_lshift
1623 BN_mod_lshift_quick
1624
1625 These functions always generate non-negative results.
1626
1627 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
1628 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
1629
1630 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
1631 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
1632 be reduced modulo m.
1633 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1634
1635 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1636 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1637 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1638 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1639 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1640 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1641 differing sizes.
1642 [Richard Levitte]
1643
1644 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
1645 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
1646 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
1647 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
1648 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
1649
1650 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
1651 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
1652 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
1653 cause any problems.
1654 [Bodo Moeller]
1655
1656 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
1657 [Richard Levitte]
1658
1659 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
1660 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
1661 [Richard Levitte]
1662
1663 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
1664 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
1665 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
1666 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
1667 time)
1668 [Richard Levitte]
1669
1670 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
1671 [Richard Levitte]
1672
1673 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
1674 [Richard Levitte]
1675
1676 *) Add the following functions:
1677
1678 ENGINE_load_cswift()
1679 ENGINE_load_chil()
1680 ENGINE_load_atalla()
1681 ENGINE_load_nuron()
1682 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
1683
1684 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
1685 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
1686 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
1687 libraries unless it's really needed.
1688
1689 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
1690 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
1691 declarations (they differed!).
1692 [Richard Levitte]
1693
1694 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
1695 [Richard Levitte]
1696
1697 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
1698 [Richard Levitte]
1699
1700 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
1701 [Bodo Moeller]
1702
1703 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
1704 identity, and test if they are actually available.
1705 [Richard Levitte]
1706
1707 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
1708 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
1709 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1710
1711 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
1712 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
1713 [Richard Levitte]
1714
1715 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
1716 [Richard Levitte]
1717
1718 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
1719 [Richard Levitte]
1720
1721 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
1722 [Ben Laurie]
1723
1724 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
1725 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
1726 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
1727
1728 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
1729 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
1730 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
1731 different shared library filenames on each system.
1732 [Geoff Thorpe]
1733
1734 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
1735 [Richard Levitte]
1736
1737 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
1738 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
1739 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
1740 of two sections.
1741 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
1742
1743 *) NCONF changes.
1744 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
1745 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
1746 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
1747 binary backward compatibility.
1748 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
1749 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
1750 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
1751 LDAP server.
1752 [Richard Levitte]
1753
1754 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
1755 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
1756 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
1757 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
1758 this case.
1759 [Steve Henson]
1760
1761 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
1762 [Ben Laurie]
1763
1764 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
1765 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
1766 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
1767 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
1768 set.
1769 [Steve Henson]
1770
1771 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
1772 [Richard Levitte]
1773
1774 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [XX xxx XXXX]
1775
1776 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
1777 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
1778 assertions could call abort()).
1779 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
1780
1781 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
1782
1783 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
1784 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
1785 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
1786 supplied buffer.
1787 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
1788
1789 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
1790 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
1791 by the selection routines (PR #130).
1792 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1793
1794 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
1795 [Nils Larsch]
1796
1797 *) New option
1798 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
1799 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
1800 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
1801
1802 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
1803 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
1804 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
1805 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
1806 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
1807 applications.
1808 [Bodo Moeller]
1809
1810 *) Changes in security patch:
1811
1812 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
1813 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
1814 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
1815 F30602-01-2-0537.
1816
1817 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
1818 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
1819 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
1820 supplied buffer. (CAN-2002-0659)
1821 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
1822
1823 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
1824 happen in practice.
1825 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1826
1827 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
1828 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CAN-2002-0655)
1829 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
1830
1831 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
1832 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
1833 (CAN-2002-0657)
1834 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1835
1836 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
1837 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CAN-2002-0656)
1838 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1839
1840 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
1841 supply an oversized client master key. (CAN-2002-0656)
1842 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1843
1844 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
1845
1846 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
1847 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
1848 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
1849
1850 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
1851 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1852
1853 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
1854 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
1855 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
1856 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
1857 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
1858 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
1859 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1860
1861 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
1862 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
1863 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
1864 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
1865 [Bodo Moeller]
1866
1867 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
1868 [Bodo Moeller]
1869
1870 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
1871 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
1872 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
1873 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
1874 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
1875 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1876
1877 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
1878 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
1879 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
1880 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
1881 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
1882 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1883
1884 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
1885 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
1886 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
1887 BN_generate_prime().)
1888
1889 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
1890 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
1891 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
1892 better.
1893 [Bodo Moeller]
1894
1895 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
1896 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
1897 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1898
1899 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
1900 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
1901 when using non-blocking I/O.
1902 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
1903
1904 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
1905 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
1906
1907 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
1908 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
1909 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1910
1911 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
1912 configuration for the versions before that.
1913 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
1914
1915 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
1916 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
1917 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
1918 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
1919 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1920
1921 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
1922 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
1923 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
1924 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1925
1926 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
1927 value is 0.
1928 [Richard Levitte]
1929
1930 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
1931 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
1932
1933 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
1934 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
1935 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
1936
1937 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
1938 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
1939 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
1940 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
1941 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
1942 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
1943 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
1944 session cache.
1945
1946 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
1947 using a local variable.
1948 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
1949
1950 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
1951 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
1952 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
1953
1954 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
1955 [Richard Levitte]
1956
1957 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
1958 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
1959
1960 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
1961 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
1962 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
1963
1964 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
1965
1966 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
1967 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
1968 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
1969 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
1970 [Bodo Moeller]
1971
1972 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
1973 present.
1974 [Steve Henson]
1975
1976 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
1977 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
1978 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
1979 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
1980 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
1981
1982 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
1983 returns early because it has nothing to do.
1984 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1985
1986 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1987 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
1988 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1989
1990 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1991 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
1992 (Use engine 'keyclient')
1993 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
1994
1995 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
1996 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
1997 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
1998 modules).
1999 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
2000
2001 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2002 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
2003 from 0.9.7.
2004 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
2005
2006 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2007 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
2008 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
2009 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
2010
2011 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2012 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
2013 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
2014 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
2015
2016 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
2017 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
2018
2019 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
2020 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
2021 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
2022 [Bodo Moeller]
2023
2024 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
2025 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
2026 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
2027 become invalid.
2028 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
2029
2030 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
2031 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
2032 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
2033 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
2034 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
2035 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
2036 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
2037 [Bodo Moeller]
2038
2039 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
2040 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
2041 one of the SSL handshake functions.
2042 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
2043
2044 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
2045 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
2046 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
2047 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
2048 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
2049 the client will at least see that alert.
2050 [Bodo Moeller]
2051
2052 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
2053 correctly.
2054 [Bodo Moeller]
2055
2056 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
2057 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
2058 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
2059
2060 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
2061 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
2062 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
2063 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
2064 HelloRequest.
2065
2066 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
2067 before just sending a HelloRequest.
2068 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
2069
2070 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
2071 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
2072 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
2073 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
2074 may leak via logfiles.)
2075
2076 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
2077 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
2078 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
2079 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
2080 the legal range.
2081 [Bodo Moeller]
2082
2083 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
2084 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
2085 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2086
2087 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
2088 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
2089 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
2090 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
2091 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
2092 [Bodo Moeller]
2093
2094 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
2095 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
2096
2097 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
2098 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
2099 followed by modular reduction.
2100 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
2101
2102 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
2103 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
2104 [Bodo Moeller]
2105
2106 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
2107 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
2108 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
2109 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
2110 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2111
2112 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
2113 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2114
2115 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
2116 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
2117 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2118
2119 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
2120 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
2121 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
2122 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
2123 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
2124 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
2125 automatically.
2126 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
2127
2128 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
2129 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
2130 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
2131 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
2132 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
2133
2134 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
2135 [Andy Polyakov]
2136
2137 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
2138 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
2139 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
2140 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
2141 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
2142 to allow the necessary settings.
2143 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2144
2145 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
2146 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
2147 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
2148 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
2149 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2150
2151 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
2152 dh->length and always used
2153
2154 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
2155
2156 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
2157 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
2158 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
2159 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
2160 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
2161 dh->length.
2162
2163 So switch back to
2164
2165 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
2166
2167 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
2168 otherwise.
2169 [Bodo Moeller]
2170
2171 *) In
2172
2173 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
2174 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
2175 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
2176 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
2177
2178 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
2179 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
2180 always reject numbers >= n.
2181 [Bodo Moeller]
2182
2183 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
2184 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
2185 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
2186 variable) is not atomic.
2187 [Bodo Moeller]
2188
2189 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
2190 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
2191 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
2192 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
2193
2194 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
2195 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
2196
2197 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
2198 little-endian MIPS.
2199 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
2200
2201 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
2202 [Richard Levitte]
2203
2204 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
2205
2206 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
2207 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
2208 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
2209 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
2210 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
2211 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
2212 to traverse all of 'state'.
2213
2214 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
2215 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
2216 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
2217
2218 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
2219 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
2220
2221 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
2222 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
2223 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
2224 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
2225 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
2226 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
2227 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
2228 further strengthens the PRNG.
2229 [Bodo Moeller]
2230
2231 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
2232 [Andy Polyakov]
2233
2234 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
2235 an error message in this case.
2236 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2237
2238 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
2239 [Steve Henson]
2240
2241 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
2242 positive and less than q.
2243 [Bodo Moeller]
2244
2245 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
2246 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
2247 that itself.
2248 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
2249
2250 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
2251 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
2252 [Bodo Moeller]
2253
2254 *) Fix OAEP check.
2255 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
2256
2257 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
2258 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
2259 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
2260 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
2261 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
2262 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
2263 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
2264 paper.)
2265
2266 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
2267 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
2268 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
2269 detect the supposedly ignored error.
2270
2271 Both problems are now fixed.
2272 [Bodo Moeller]
2273
2274 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
2275 (previously it was 1024).
2276 [Bodo Moeller]
2277
2278 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
2279 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
2280 [Steve Henson]
2281
2282 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
2283 [Steve Henson]
2284
2285 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
2286 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
2287 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
2288 [Steve Henson]
2289
2290 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
2291 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
2292 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
2293 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
2294 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
2295 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
2296 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
2297 environment variables.
2298
2299 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
2300 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
2301 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
2302 [Bodo Moeller]
2303
2304 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
2305 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
2306 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
2307 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
2308 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
2309 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
2310 [Bodo Moeller]
2311
2312 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
2313 versions of 'test'.
2314 [Bodo Moeller]
2315
2316 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
2317
2318 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
2319 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
2320
2321 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
2322 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
2323 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
2324 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
2325 CygWin.
2326 [Richard Levitte]
2327
2328 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
2329 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
2330 amount of data available.
2331 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
2332 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2333
2334 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
2335 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
2336 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
2337 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
2338 [Bodo Moeller]
2339
2340 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
2341 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
2342 and UnixWare.
2343 [Richard Levitte]
2344
2345 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
2346 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
2347 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
2348 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
2349 [Ulf Moeller]
2350
2351 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
2352 [Andy Polyakov]
2353
2354 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
2355 [Richard Levitte]
2356
2357 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
2358 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
2359 [Steve Henson]
2360 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2361
2362 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
2363 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
2364 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
2365 (but broken) behaviour.
2366 [Steve Henson]
2367
2368 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
2369 it when found.
2370 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
2371
2372 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
2373 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
2374 [Bodo Moeller]
2375
2376 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
2377 did not exist.
2378 [Bodo Moeller]
2379
2380 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
2381 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
2382
2383 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
2384 [Richard Levitte]
2385
2386 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
2387 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
2388 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
2389
2390 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
2391 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
2392 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
2393 [Steve Henson]
2394
2395 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
2396 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
2397 [Ulf Moeller]
2398
2399 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
2400 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
2401
2402 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
2403
2404 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
2405
2406 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
2407 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
2408 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
2409 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
2410 [Bodo Moeller]
2411
2412 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
2413 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2414
2415 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
2416 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
2417 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2418
2419 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
2420 was empty.
2421 [Steve Henson]
2422 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2423
2424 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
2425 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
2426 but the code is actually correct.
2427 [Steve Henson]
2428
2429 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
2430 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
2431 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
2432 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
2433 and leaves the highest bit random.
2434 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
2435
2436 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
2437 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
2438 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
2439 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
2440 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
2441 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
2442 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
2443 [Bodo Moeller]
2444
2445 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
2446 [Ulf Moeller]
2447
2448 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
2449 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
2450 [Steve Henson]
2451
2452 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
2453 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
2454 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
2455 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
2456 headers.
2457 [Richard Levitte]
2458
2459 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
2460 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
2461 and break the signature.
2462 [Steve Henson]
2463 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2464
2465 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
2466 DH ciphersuites.
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
2470 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
2471 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
2472 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
2473 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
2474 [Bodo Moeller]
2475
2476 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
2477 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2478
2479 *) ./config script fixes.
2480 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
2481
2482 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
2483 [Bodo Moeller]
2484
2485 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
2486 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
2487 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
2488 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
2489 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
2490
2491 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
2492 call failed, free the DSA structure.
2493 [Bodo Moeller]
2494
2495 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
2496 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
2497 [Steve Henson]
2498
2499 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
2500 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
2501 when writing a 32767 byte record.
2502 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
2503
2504 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
2505 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
2506
2507 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
2508 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
2509 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
2510 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
2511 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
2512
2513 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
2514 [Bodo Moeller]
2515
2516 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
2517 [Ulf Möller]
2518
2519 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
2520 [Ulf Möller]
2521
2522 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
2523 [Bodo Moeller]
2524
2525 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
2526 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
2527 [Bodo Moeller]
2528
2529 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
2530 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
2531 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
2532 result of the server certificate verification.)
2533 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2534
2535 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
2536 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
2537 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
2538 [Bodo Moeller]
2539
2540 *) Fix SSL_peek:
2541 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
2542 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
2543 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
2544 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
2545 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
2546 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
2547 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
2548 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
2549 [Bodo Moeller]
2550
2551 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
2552 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
2553 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
2554 happening the other way round.
2555 [Geoff Thorpe]
2556
2557 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
2558 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
2559 [Bodo Moeller]
2560
2561 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
2562 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
2563 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
2564 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
2565 [Richard Levitte]
2566
2567 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
2568 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
2569
2570 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
2571
2572 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
2573 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
2574 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
2575 that.
2576
2577 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
2578
2579 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
2580
2581 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
2582 static ones.
2583 [Richard Levitte]
2584
2585 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
2586
2587 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
2588 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
2589 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
2590 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
2591 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
2592
2593 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
2594 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
2595 matter what.
2596 [Richard Levitte]
2597
2598 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
2599 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2600
2601 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
2602
2603 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
2604 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
2605 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
2606 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
2607 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
2608 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
2609 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
2610 by the Finished messages.
2611 [Bodo Moeller]
2612
2613 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
2614 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
2615
2616 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
2617 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
2618 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
2619 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
2620 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
2621 appropriately.
2622 [Steve Henson]
2623
2624 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
2625 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
2626 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
2627 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
2628 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
2629 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
2630 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
2631 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
2632 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
2633 together.
2634 [Steve Henson]
2635
2636 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
2637 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
2638 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
2639 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
2640
2641 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
2642 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
2643 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
2644 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
2645 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
2646 the answer.
2647
2648 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
2649 been tested well enough.
2650 [Richard Levitte]
2651
2652 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
2653 it can return incorrect results.
2654 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
2655 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
2656 [Bodo Moeller]
2657
2658 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
2659 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
2660 include zero length content when signing messages.
2661 [Steve Henson]
2662
2663 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
2664 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
2665 [Bodo Möller]
2666
2667 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
2668 [Richard Levitte]
2669
2670 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
2671 wrong sign.
2672 [Ulf Möller]
2673
2674 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
2675 packages. The default package contains applications, application
2676 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
2677 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
2678 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
2679 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
2680 [Richard Levitte]
2681
2682 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
2683 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
2684
2685 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
2686 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
2687
2688 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
2689 random number < q in the DSA library.
2690 [Ulf Möller]
2691
2692 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
2693 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
2694 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
2695 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
2696 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
2697 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
2698 just makes things more complicated.)
2699 [Bodo Moeller]
2700
2701 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
2702 from EGD.
2703 [Ben Laurie]
2704
2705 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
2706 work better on such systems.
2707 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
2708
2709 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
2710 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
2711 keyid to the certificates aux info.
2712 [Steve Henson]
2713
2714 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
2715 if there was more than one signature.
2716 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
2717
2718 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
2719 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
2720 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
2721 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
2722 [Richard Levitte]
2723
2724 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
2725 rather than always using the current time.
2726 [Steve Henson]
2727
2728 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
2729 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
2730 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
2731 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
2732 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
2733 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
2734
2735 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
2736 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
2737
2738 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
2739
2740 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
2741 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
2742 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
2743 the same hash value.
2744
2745 As a result various functions (which were all internal
2746 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
2747 structure. This will break anything that messed round
2748 with X509_STORE internally.
2749
2750 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
2751 exact match, rather than just subject name.
2752
2753 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
2754 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
2755 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
2756 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
2757 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
2758 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
2759 entirely (maybe later...).
2760
2761 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
2762
2763 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
2764 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
2765 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
2766 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
2767 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
2768 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
2769 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
2770 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
2771
2772 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
2773 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
2774
2775 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
2776 to customise the verify behaviour.
2777 [Steve Henson]
2778
2779 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
2780 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
2781 [Steve Henson]
2782
2783 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
2784 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
2785 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
2786 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
2787 request is improperly encoded.
2788 [Steve Henson]
2789
2790 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
2791 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
2792 BIO_write(b, ...).
2793
2794 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
2795 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
2796
2797 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
2798 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
2799 words set to zero.)
2800 [Bodo Moeller]
2801
2802 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
2803 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
2804 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
2805 [Bodo Moeller]
2806
2807 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
2808 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
2809 BIO/fp routines also added.
2810 [Steve Henson]
2811
2812 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
2813 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
2814
2815 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
2816 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
2817 demos/state_machine.
2818 [Ben Laurie]
2819
2820 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
2821 generation and verification.
2822 [Steve Henson]
2823
2824 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
2825 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
2826 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
2827 encode and decode it manually.
2828 [Steve Henson]
2829
2830 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
2831 compile under VC++.
2832 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
2833
2834 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
2835 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
2836 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
2837 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
2838
2839 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
2840 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
2841 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
2842 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
2843 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
2844 [Steve Henson]
2845
2846 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
2847 [Richard Levitte]
2848
2849 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
2850 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
2851 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
2852
2853 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
2854 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
2855 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
2856 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
2857 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
2858 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
2859 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
2860 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
2861
2862 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
2863 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
2864
2865 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
2866
2867 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
2868 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
2869 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
2870
2871 [Richard Levitte]
2872
2873 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
2874 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
2875 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
2876 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
2877 [Richard Levitte]
2878
2879 *) MD4 implemented.
2880 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
2881
2882 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
2883 [Richard Levitte]
2884
2885 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
2886 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
2887 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
2888 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
2889 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
2890 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
2891 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
2892 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
2893 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
2894 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
2895 short or long names are found.
2896 [Steve Henson]
2897
2898 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
2899 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
2900
2901 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
2902 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
2903 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
2904 version rollback attacks was not effective.
2905
2906 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
2907 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
2908 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
2909 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
2910 [Bodo Moeller]
2911
2912 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
2913 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
2914 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
2915 [Richard Levitte]
2916
2917 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
2918 these print out strings and name structures based on various
2919 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
2920 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
2921 to allow the various flags to be set.
2922 [Steve Henson]
2923
2924 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
2925 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
2926 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
2927 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
2928 dates to be checked.
2929 [Steve Henson]
2930
2931 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
2932 negative public key encodings) on by default,
2933 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
2934 [Steve Henson]
2935
2936 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
2937 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
2938 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
2939 [Steve Henson]
2940
2941 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
2942 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
2943 [Bodo Moeller]
2944
2945 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
2946 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
2947 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
2948 are always statically linked for now, but there are
2949 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
2950 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
2951 [Richard Levitte]
2952
2953 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
2954 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
2955 Random Numbers.
2956 [Ulf Möller]
2957
2958 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
2959 DSA key.
2960 [Steve Henson]
2961
2962 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
2963 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
2964 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
2965 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
2966 form signing output easier to verify.
2967 [Steve Henson]
2968
2969 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
2970 [Steve Henson]
2971
2972 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
2973 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
2974 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
2975 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
2976 are needed because all other string types have virtually
2977 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
2978 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
2979 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
2980 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
2981 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
2982 [Steve Henson]
2983
2984 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
2985
2986 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
2987 the syntax given in objects.README.
2988 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
2989 obj_mac.h.
2990 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
2991 obj_mac.h.
2992
2993 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
2994 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
2995 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
2996 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
2997 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
2998 consistent name changes.
2999 [Richard Levitte]
3000
3001 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
3002 [Bodo Moeller]
3003
3004 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
3005 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
3006 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
3007 environment variable, or the default random state file.
3008 [Richard Levitte]
3009
3010 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
3011 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
3012 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
3013 of safestack.h .
3014 [Steve Henson]
3015
3016 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
3017 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
3018 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
3019 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
3020 [Steve Henson]
3021
3022 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
3023 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
3024 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
3025 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
3026 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
3027 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
3028 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
3029 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
3030 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
3031 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
3032 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
3033 [Steve Henson]
3034
3035 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
3036 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
3037 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
3038 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
3039 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
3040 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
3041 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
3042 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
3043 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
3044 algorithm to openssl-dev.
3045 [Steve Henson]
3046
3047 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
3048 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
3049 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
3050 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
3051
3052 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
3053 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
3054 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
3055 omit any duplicate addresses.
3056 [Steve Henson]
3057
3058 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
3059 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
3060 [Bodo Moeller]
3061
3062 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
3063 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
3064 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
3065 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
3066 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
3067 [Bodo Moeller]
3068
3069 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
3070 software:
3071 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
3072 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
3073 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
3074 Free => OPENSSL_free
3075 [Richard Levitte]
3076
3077 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
3078 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
3079 [Bodo Moeller]
3080
3081 *) CygWin32 support.
3082 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
3083
3084 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
3085 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
3086 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
3087 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
3088 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
3089 approach.
3090 [Geoff Thorpe]
3091
3092 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
3093 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
3094 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
3095 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
3096 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
3097 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
3098 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
3099 [Geoff Thorpe]
3100
3101 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
3102 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
3103 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
3104 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
3105 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
3106 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
3107 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
3108 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
3109 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
3110 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
3111 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
3112 [Bodo Moeller]
3113
3114 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
3115 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
3116 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
3117 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
3118 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
3119
3120 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
3121 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
3122 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
3123 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
3124 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
3125
3126 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
3127 ciphers.
3128
3129 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
3130 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
3131 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
3132 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
3133
3134 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
3135
3136 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
3137 of macros.
3138
3139 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
3140 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
3141 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
3142 flags.
3143
3144 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
3145 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
3146 any installed hardware versions can.
3147 [Steve Henson]
3148
3149 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
3150 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
3151 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
3152 number.
3153 [Bodo Moeller]
3154
3155 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
3156 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
3157 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
3158 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
3159 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
3160
3161 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
3162 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
3163 [Steve Henson]
3164
3165 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
3166 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
3167 [Richard Levitte]
3168
3169 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
3170 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
3171 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
3172 features.
3173 [Steve Henson]
3174
3175 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
3176 [Ulf Möller]
3177
3178 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
3179 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
3180 but no ssl client purpose.
3181 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
3182
3183 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
3184 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
3185 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
3186 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
3187 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
3188 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
3189 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
3190 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
3191 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
3192 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
3193 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
3194 [Steve Henson]
3195
3196 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
3197 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
3198 be obtained from the error queue.
3199 [Bodo Moeller]
3200
3201 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
3202 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
3203 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
3204 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
3205 [Bodo Moeller]
3206
3207 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
3208 [Ulf Möller]
3209
3210 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
3211 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
3212 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
3213 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
3214 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
3215 [Geoff Thorpe]
3216
3217 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
3218 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
3219 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
3220 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
3221 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
3222 [Geoff Thorpe]
3223
3224 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
3225 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
3226 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
3227 may not be NULL.
3228 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
3229
3230 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
3231 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
3232 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
3233 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
3234 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
3235 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
3236 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
3237 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
3238 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
3239 or "the configuration storage API"...
3240
3241 The new configuration file reading functions are:
3242
3243 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
3244 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
3245
3246 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
3247
3248 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
3249
3250 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
3251 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
3252 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
3253 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
3254 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
3255 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
3256 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
3257
3258 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
3259 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
3260 [Richard Levitte]
3261
3262 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
3263 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
3264 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
3265 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
3266 [Bodo Moeller]
3267
3268 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
3269 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
3270 them in a portable way.
3271 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
3272
3273 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
3274
3275 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
3276
3277 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
3278 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
3279
3280 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
3281 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
3282 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
3283 <attili@amaxo.com>]
3284
3285 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
3286 was larger than the MD block size.
3287 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
3288
3289 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
3290 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
3291 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
3292 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
3293 components.
3294 [Steve Henson]
3295
3296 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
3297 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
3298 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
3299
3300 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
3301 discouraged.
3302 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
3303
3304 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
3305 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
3306 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
3307 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
3308 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
3309 Additional arguments are always ignored.
3310
3311 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
3312 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
3313
3314 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
3315 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
3316 [Bodo Moeller]
3317
3318 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
3319 [Bodo Moeller]
3320
3321 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
3322 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
3323 its own key.
3324 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
3325 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
3326 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
3327 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
3328 [Bodo Moeller]
3329
3330 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
3331 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
3332 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
3333 does not suppress any output.
3334 [Richard Levitte]
3335
3336 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
3337 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
3338 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
3339 with all the associated security issues.
3340
3341 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
3342 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
3343 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
3344 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
3345 use the value in the default purpose.
3346 [Steve Henson]
3347
3348 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
3349 and fix a memory leak.
3350 [Steve Henson]
3351
3352 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
3353 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
3354 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
3355 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
3356 [Bodo Moeller]
3357
3358 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
3359 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
3360 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
3361 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
3362 [Bodo Moeller]
3363
3364 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
3365 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
3366 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
3367 [Bodo Moeller]
3368
3369 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
3370 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
3371 [Bodo Moeller]
3372
3373 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
3374 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
3375 which was free.
3376 [Steve Henson]
3377
3378 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
3379 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
3380 [Bodo Moeller]
3381
3382 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
3383 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
3384 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
3385 [Bodo Moeller]
3386
3387 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
3388 number generation fails.
3389 [Bodo Moeller]
3390
3391 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
3392 [Bodo Moeller]
3393
3394 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
3395 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
3396
3397 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
3398 [Ulf Möller]
3399
3400 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
3401 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
3402
3403 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
3404 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
3405
3406 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
3407
3408 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
3409 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
3410 [Steve Henson]
3411
3412 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
3413 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
3414
3415 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
3416 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
3417 [Ulf Möller]
3418
3419 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
3420 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
3421 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
3422 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
3423 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
3424 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
3425
3426 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
3427 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
3428 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
3429 for example.
3430 [Steve Henson]
3431
3432 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
3433 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
3434 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
3435 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
3436 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
3437 counter, some don't.)
3438 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
3439 counters or duplicate objects.
3440 [Steve Henson]
3441
3442 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
3443 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
3444 [Steve Henson]
3445
3446 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
3447 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
3448 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
3449
3450 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
3451 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
3452 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
3453 or -rand.
3454 [Ulf Möller]
3455
3456 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
3457 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
3458 [Steve Henson]
3459
3460 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
3461 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
3462 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
3463 cipher list.
3464 [Steve Henson]
3465
3466 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
3467 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
3468 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
3469 [Steve Henson]
3470
3471 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
3472 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
3473 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
3474 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
3475 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
3476 should work without changes.
3477 [Richard Levitte]
3478
3479 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
3480 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
3481 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
3482 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
3483 must be defined. E.g.,
3484 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
3485 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
3486 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
3487 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
3488
3489 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
3490 record layer.
3491 [Bodo Moeller]
3492
3493 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
3494 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
3495 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
3496 [Steve Henson]
3497
3498 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
3499 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
3500 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
3501 request header lines. Some software needs this.
3502 [Steve Henson]
3503
3504 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
3505 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
3506 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
3507 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
3508 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
3509 is prompted for as usual.
3510 [Steve Henson]
3511
3512 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
3513 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
3514 autodetect the card and use it if present.
3515 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
3516
3517 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
3518 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
3519 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
3520 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
3521 [Steve Henson]
3522
3523 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
3524 [Andy Polyakov]
3525
3526 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
3527 of seed file.
3528 [Steve Henson]
3529
3530 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
3531 [Bodo Moeller]
3532
3533 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
3534 [Steve Henson]
3535
3536 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
3537 bits.
3538 [Ulf Möller]
3539
3540 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
3541 [Ulf Möller]
3542
3543 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
3544 [Andy Polyakov]
3545
3546 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
3547 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
3548 [Ulf Möller]
3549
3550 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
3551 options to produce them.
3552 [Steve Henson]
3553
3554 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
3555 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
3556 [Ulf Möller]
3557
3558 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
3559 for p == 0.
3560 [Ulf Möller]
3561
3562 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
3563 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
3564 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
3565 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
3566 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
3567 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
3568 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
3569 [Steve Henson]
3570
3571 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
3572 [Steve Henson]
3573
3574 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
3575 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
3576 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
3577 [Bodo Moeller]
3578
3579 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
3580 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
3581
3582 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
3583 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
3584 [Ulf Möller]
3585
3586 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
3587 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
3588 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
3589 has already seen).
3590 [Bodo Moeller]
3591
3592 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
3593 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
3594
3595 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
3596 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
3597 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
3598 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
3599 generation becomes much faster.
3600
3601 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
3602 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
3603 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
3604 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
3605 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
3606 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
3607 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
3608 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
3609 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
3610 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
3611 [Bodo Moeller]
3612
3613 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
3614 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
3615 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
3616 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
3617 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
3618 trial division stage.
3619 [Bodo Moeller]
3620
3621 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
3622 as ASN1_TIME.
3623 [Steve Henson]
3624
3625 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
3626 [Steve Henson]
3627
3628 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
3629 [Ulf Möller]
3630
3631 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
3632 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
3633 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
3634 the comments.
3635 [Ulf Möller]
3636
3637 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
3638 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
3639 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
3640 [Bodo Moeller]
3641
3642 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
3643 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
3644 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
3645 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
3646
3647 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
3648 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
3649 [Steve Henson]
3650
3651 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
3652 [Ulf Möller]
3653
3654 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
3655 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
3656 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
3657 Rabin-Miller iterations.
3658 [Ulf Möller]
3659
3660 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
3661 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
3662 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
3663 [Ulf Möller]
3664
3665 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
3666 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
3667 (instead of parameters) in future.
3668 [Steve Henson]
3669
3670 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
3671 when a new cipher list is set.
3672 [Steve Henson]
3673
3674 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
3675 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
3676 wrong.
3677
3678 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
3679 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
3680 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
3681
3682 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
3683 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
3684 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
3685 an error is flagged.
3686
3687 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
3688 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
3689 the readability was also increased :-)
3690 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
3691
3692 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
3693 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
3694 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
3695 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
3696 as the root CA.
3697 [Steve Henson]
3698
3699 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
3700 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
3701 [Steve Henson]
3702
3703 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
3704 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
3705 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
3706 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
3707 instead.
3708
3709 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
3710 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
3711 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
3712 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
3713 because they handle more complex structures.)
3714 [Steve Henson]
3715
3716 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
3717 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
3718 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
3719 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
3720
3721 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
3722 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
3723 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
3724 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
3725 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
3726 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
3727 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
3728 [Ulf Möller]
3729
3730 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
3731 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
3732 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
3733 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
3734 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
3735 [Bodo Moeller]
3736
3737 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
3738 [Bodo Moeller]
3739
3740 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
3741 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
3742 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
3743 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
3744 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
3745 to use this.
3746
3747 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
3748 code.
3749 [Steve Henson]
3750
3751 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
3752 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
3753 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
3754 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
3755 [Steve Henson]
3756
3757 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
3758 [Ulf Möller]
3759
3760 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
3761 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
3762 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
3763 international characters are used.
3764
3765 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
3766 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
3767 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
3768 in ASN1 order.
3769 [Steve Henson]
3770
3771 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
3772 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
3773 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
3774 request.
3775
3776 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
3777 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
3778 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
3779 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
3780 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
3781 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
3782
3783 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
3784 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
3785 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
3786 be handled by the string table functions.
3787
3788 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
3789 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
3790 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
3791 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
3792 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
3793 types at all.
3794 [Steve Henson]
3795
3796 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
3797 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
3798 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
3799 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
3800 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
3801
3802 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
3803 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
3804 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
3805 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
3806 [Bodo Moeller]
3807
3808 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
3809 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
3810 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
3811 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
3812 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
3813 SHA1.
3814 [Andy Polyakov]
3815
3816 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
3817 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
3818 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
3819 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
3820 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
3821 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
3822 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
3823 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
3824
3825 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
3826 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
3827 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
3828 [Steve Henson]
3829
3830 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
3831 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
3832 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
3833 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
3834 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
3835 support to pkcs8 application.
3836 [Steve Henson]
3837
3838 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
3839 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
3840 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
3841 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
3842 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
3843 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
3844 [Bodo Moeller]
3845
3846 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
3847 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
3848 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
3849 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
3850 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
3851 consistency.
3852 [Bodo Moeller]
3853
3854 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
3855 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
3856 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
3857 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
3858 example.
3859 [Steve Henson]
3860
3861 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
3862 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
3863 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
3864 and any application specific purposes.
3865
3866 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
3867 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
3868 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
3869 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
3870 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
3871 if the certificate is self signed.
3872 [Steve Henson]
3873
3874 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
3875 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
3876 [Steve Henson]
3877
3878 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
3879 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
3880 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
3881 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
3882 [Steve Henson]
3883
3884 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
3885 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
3886 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
3887 Update documentation.
3888 [Steve Henson]
3889
3890 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
3891 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
3892 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
3893 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
3894 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
3895 [Steve Henson]
3896
3897 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
3898 for details.
3899 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
3900
3901 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
3902 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
3903 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
3904 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
3905 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
3906 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
3907 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
3908 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
3909 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
3910 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
3911
3912 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
3913
3914 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
3915 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
3916 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
3917 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
3918 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
3919
3920 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
3921 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
3922 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
3923 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
3924 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
3925 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
3926 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
3927 request additional information:
3928 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
3929 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
3930
3931 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
3932 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
3933 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
3934 options.
3935
3936 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
3937 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
3938
3939 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
3940 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
3941 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
3942
3943 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
3944 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3945
3946 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
3947 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
3948 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
3949 algorithm.
3950 [Steve Henson]
3951
3952 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
3953 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
3954 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
3955
3956 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
3957 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
3958 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
3959 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
3960 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
3961 included in OpenSSL.
3962 [Steve Henson]
3963
3964 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
3965 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
3966 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
3967 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
3968 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
3969 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
3970 [Bodo Moeller]
3971
3972 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
3973 PKCS12 structure.
3974 [Steve Henson]
3975
3976 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
3977 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
3978 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
3979 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
3980 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
3981 structure.
3982 [Steve Henson]
3983
3984 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
3985 need initialising.
3986 [Steve Henson]
3987
3988 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
3989 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
3990 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
3991 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
3992 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
3993 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
3994 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
3995 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
3996 be maintained manually.
3997
3998 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
3999 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
4000 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
4001 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
4002 work because people forget to call this function]
4003 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
4004 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
4005 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
4006 [Steve Henson]
4007
4008 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
4009 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
4010 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
4011 should be discouraged from doing it.
4012 [Ben Laurie]
4013
4014 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
4015 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
4016 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
4017 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
4018 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
4019 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
4020 [Steve Henson]
4021
4022 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
4023 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
4024 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
4025
4026 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
4027 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
4028 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
4029
4030 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
4031 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
4032 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
4033 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
4034 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
4035 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
4036
4037 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
4038 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
4039 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
4040
4041 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
4042 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
4043 and vice versa.
4044
4045 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
4046 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
4047 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
4048 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
4049 [Steve Henson]
4050
4051 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
4052 [Steve Henson]
4053
4054 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
4055 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
4056 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
4057 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
4058 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
4059 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
4060 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
4061 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
4062 keys so we should be OK.
4063
4064 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
4065 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
4066 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
4067 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
4068 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
4069 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
4070 stay in the name of compatibility.
4071
4072 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
4073 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
4074 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
4075
4076 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
4077 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
4078 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
4079 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
4080 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
4081 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
4082 supplied key).
4083 [Steve Henson]
4084
4085 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
4086 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
4087 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
4088 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
4089 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
4090 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
4091 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
4092 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
4093 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
4094 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
4095 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
4096 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
4097 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
4098 [Steve Henson]
4099
4100 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
4101 [Steve Henson]
4102
4103 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
4104 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
4105 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
4106 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
4107 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
4108 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
4109 single self signed certificate. This means that:
4110 openssl verify ss.pem
4111 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
4112 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
4113 is OK.
4114 [Steve Henson]
4115
4116 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
4117 (and add it to external session representation).
4118 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
4119 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
4120 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
4121 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
4122 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
4123 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
4124 security holes.
4125 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
4126
4127 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
4128 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
4129 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
4130 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
4131
4132 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
4133 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
4134 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
4135 [Steve Henson]
4136
4137 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
4138 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
4139 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
4140 code.
4141 [Steve Henson]
4142
4143 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
4144 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
4145 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
4146
4147 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
4148 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
4149 certificate auxiliary information.
4150 [Steve Henson]
4151
4152 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
4153 the 'enc' command.
4154 [Steve Henson]
4155
4156 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
4157 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
4158 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
4159 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
4160 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
4161 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
4162 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
4163 [Richard Levitte]
4164
4165 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
4166 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
4167 [Steve Henson]
4168
4169 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
4170 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
4171 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
4172 manpages and fix a few bugs.
4173 [Steve Henson]
4174
4175 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
4176 [Steve Henson]
4177
4178 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
4179 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
4180 [Steve Henson]
4181
4182 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
4183 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
4184 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
4185 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
4186 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
4187 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
4188 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
4189 using the new 'x509' options.
4190
4191 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
4192 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
4193 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
4194 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
4195 for all purposes.
4196 [Steve Henson]
4197
4198 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
4199 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
4200 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
4201 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
4202 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
4203 [Mark Cox]
4204
4205 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
4206 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
4207 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
4208 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
4209 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
4210 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
4211 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
4212 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
4213 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
4214 the key length and effective key length are equal.
4215 [Steve Henson]
4216
4217 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
4218 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
4219 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
4220 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
4221 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
4222 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
4223 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
4224 [Steve Henson]
4225
4226 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
4227 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
4228 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
4229 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
4230 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
4231 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
4232 openssl.cnf for more info.
4233 [Steve Henson]
4234
4235 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
4236 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
4237 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
4238 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
4239 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
4240 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
4241 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
4242 md should be large enough anyway.
4243 [Bodo Moeller]
4244
4245 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
4246 for handling the random seed file.
4247
4248 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
4249 ca,
4250 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
4251 s_client,
4252 s_server,
4253 x509 (when signing).
4254 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
4255 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
4256 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
4257
4258 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
4259 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
4260 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
4261 that support '-rand'.
4262 [Bodo Moeller]
4263
4264 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
4265 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
4266 [Bodo Moeller]
4267
4268 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
4269 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
4270 [Bill Perry]
4271
4272 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
4273 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
4274 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
4275 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
4276 is suitable.
4277 [Steve Henson]
4278
4279 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
4280 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
4281 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
4282 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
4283 [Steve Henson]
4284
4285 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
4286 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
4287 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
4288 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
4289 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
4290 print out all the purposes.
4291 [Steve Henson]
4292
4293 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
4294 functions.
4295 [Steve Henson]
4296
4297 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
4298 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
4299 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
4300 single function call.
4301 [Steve Henson]
4302
4303 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
4304 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
4305 [Andy Polyakov]
4306
4307 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
4308 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
4309 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
4310 [Steve Henson]
4311
4312 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
4313 when producing the local key id.
4314 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4315
4316 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
4317 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
4318 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
4319 "server.pem".
4320 [Steve Henson]
4321
4322 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
4323 a public key to be input or output. For example:
4324 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
4325 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
4326 [Steve Henson]
4327
4328 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
4329 in the message. This was handled by allowing
4330 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
4331 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
4332
4333 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
4334 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
4335 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
4336 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4337
4338 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
4339 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
4340 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
4341 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
4342 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
4343 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
4344 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
4345 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
4346 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
4347 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
4348 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
4349 trivial: move one line.
4350 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
4351
4352 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
4353 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
4354 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
4355 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
4356 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
4357 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
4358 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
4359 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
4360 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
4361 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
4362 with an event loop for example.
4363 [Steve Henson]
4364
4365 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
4366 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
4367 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
4368 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
4369 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
4370 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
4371 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
4372 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
4373 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
4374 [Steve Henson]
4375
4376 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
4377 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
4378 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
4379 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
4380 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
4381 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
4382 [Steve Henson]
4383
4384 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
4385 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
4386 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
4387 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
4388
4389 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
4390 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
4391 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
4392 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
4393 key generation.
4394 [Steve Henson]
4395
4396 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
4397 (still largely untested)
4398 [Bodo Moeller]
4399
4400 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
4401 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
4402 [Steve Henson]
4403
4404 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
4405 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
4406 [Steve Henson]
4407
4408 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
4409 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
4410 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
4411 [Bodo Moeller]
4412
4413 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
4414 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
4415 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
4416 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
4417 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
4418 [Steve Henson]
4419
4420 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
4421 [Andy Polyakov]
4422
4423 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
4424 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
4425 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
4426 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
4427 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
4428 in ca.
4429 [Steve Henson]
4430
4431 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
4432 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
4433 1.OU="Unit name 1"
4434 2.OU="Unit name 2"
4435 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
4436 [Steve Henson]
4437
4438 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
4439 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
4440 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
4441 are otherwise ignored at present.
4442 [Steve Henson]
4443
4444 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
4445 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
4446 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
4447 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
4448 copied until the next read.
4449 [Steve Henson]
4450
4451 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
4452 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
4453 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
4454 [Steve Henson]
4455
4456 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
4457 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
4458 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
4459 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
4460 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
4461 associated functions.
4462 [Steve Henson]
4463
4464 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
4465 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
4466 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
4467 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
4468 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
4469 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
4470 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
4471 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
4472 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
4473 memory BIOs.
4474 [Steve Henson]
4475
4476 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
4477 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
4478 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
4479 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
4480 [Bodo Moeller]
4481
4482 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
4483 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
4484 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
4485 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
4486 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
4487 functionality.
4488 [Steve Henson]
4489
4490 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
4491 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
4492 under Win32.
4493 [Steve Henson]
4494
4495 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
4496 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
4497 extensions to be obtained and added.
4498 [Steve Henson]
4499
4500 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
4501 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
4502 [Bodo Moeller]
4503
4504 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
4505
4506 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
4507 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4508
4509 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
4510 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
4511
4512 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
4513 program.
4514 [Steve Henson]
4515
4516 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
4517 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
4518 DH parameters contain its length).
4519
4520 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
4521 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
4522 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
4523 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
4524 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
4525 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
4526 utter importance to use
4527 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4528 or
4529 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4530 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
4531 attacks may become possible!
4532 [Bodo Moeller]
4533
4534 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
4535 [Bodo Moeller]
4536
4537 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
4538 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
4539 [Steve Henson]
4540
4541 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
4542 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
4543 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
4544 or long name.
4545 [Steve Henson]
4546
4547 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
4548 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
4549 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
4550 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
4551 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
4552 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
4553 private key operations.
4554 [Steve Henson]
4555
4556 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
4557 [Andy Polyakov]
4558
4559 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
4560 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
4561 to
4562 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
4563 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
4564 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
4565 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
4566 the password callback is called.
4567 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
4568
4569 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
4570
4571 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
4572 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
4573 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
4574 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
4575 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
4576 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
4577 this will work.
4578
4579 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
4580 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
4581 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
4582 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
4583 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
4584 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
4585 [Bodo Moeller]
4586
4587 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
4588 [Andy Polyakov]
4589
4590 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
4591 delete an unused file.
4592 [Ulf Möller]
4593
4594 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
4595 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
4596 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
4597 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
4598 [Steve Henson]
4599
4600 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
4601 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
4602 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
4603 of an error.
4604 [Bodo Moeller]
4605
4606 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
4607 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
4608 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4609
4610 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
4611 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
4612 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
4613 comparison" warnings.
4614 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
4615 [Steve Henson]
4616
4617 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
4618 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
4619 derived keys are printed to stderr.
4620 [Steve Henson]
4621
4622 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
4623 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
4624
4625 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
4626 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
4627
4628 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
4629 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
4630 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
4631
4632 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
4633 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
4634 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
4635 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
4636 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
4637 this bug.
4638 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
4639
4640 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
4641 The interface is as follows:
4642 Applications can use
4643 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
4644 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
4645 "off" is now the default.
4646 The library internally uses
4647 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
4648 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
4649 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
4650
4651 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
4652 even the default) are now avoided.
4653
4654 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
4655 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
4656 than just having a counter.
4657
4658 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
4659
4660 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
4661 extensions.
4662 [Bodo Moeller]
4663
4664 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
4665 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
4666 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
4667 Initial "mode" flags are:
4668
4669 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
4670 a single record has been written.
4671 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
4672 retries use the same buffer location.
4673 (But all of the contents must be
4674 copied!)
4675 [Bodo Moeller]
4676
4677 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
4678 worked.
4679
4680 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
4681 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
4682
4683 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
4684 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
4685 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
4686 [Steve Henson]
4687
4688 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
4689 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
4690 test programs.
4691 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
4692
4693 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
4694 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
4695 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
4696 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
4697 point to the end.
4698 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
4699 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
4700
4701 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
4702 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
4703 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
4704 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
4705 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
4706 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
4707 [Steve Henson]
4708
4709 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
4710 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
4711 necessary function names.
4712 [Steve Henson]
4713
4714 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
4715 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
4716 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
4717 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
4718 [Bodo Moeller]
4719
4720 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
4721 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
4722 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
4723 [Steve Henson]
4724
4725 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
4726 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
4727 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
4728 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
4729 such programs?)
4730 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
4731 need locks.
4732 [Bodo Moeller]
4733
4734 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
4735 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
4736 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
4737 [Bodo Moeller]
4738
4739 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
4740 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
4741 appropriate.
4742 [Bodo Moeller]
4743
4744 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
4745 for the encoded length.
4746 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
4747
4748 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
4749 [Steve Henson]
4750
4751 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
4752 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
4753 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
4754 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
4755 [Steve Henson]
4756
4757 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
4758 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
4759 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4760
4761 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
4762 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
4763 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
4764 unusual formatting.
4765 [Steve Henson]
4766
4767 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
4768 to use the new extension code.
4769 [Steve Henson]
4770
4771 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
4772 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
4773 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
4774 constant.
4775 [Steve Henson]
4776
4777 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
4778 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
4779 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
4780 [Bodo Moeller]
4781
4782 #if 0
4783 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
4784 [Ben Laurie]
4785 #else
4786 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
4787 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
4788 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
4789 #endif
4790
4791 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
4792 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
4793 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
4794 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
4795 [Ben Laurie]
4796
4797 *) DES library cleanups.
4798 [Ulf Möller]
4799
4800 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
4801 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
4802 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
4803 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
4804 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
4805 of v2.0.
4806 [Steve Henson]
4807
4808 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
4809 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
4810 [Bodo Moeller]
4811
4812 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
4813 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
4814 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
4815 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
4816 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
4817 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
4818 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
4819 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
4820 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
4821 [Steve Henson]
4822
4823 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
4824 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
4825 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
4826 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
4827 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
4828 value doesn't matter.
4829 [Steve Henson]
4830
4831 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
4832 support mutable.
4833 [Ben Laurie]
4834
4835 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
4836 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
4837 "linux-sparc" configuration.
4838 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
4839
4840 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
4841 [Ulf Möller]
4842
4843 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
4844 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
4845 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
4846
4847 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
4848 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
4849
4850 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
4851 [Ben Laurie]
4852
4853 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
4854 [Ben Laurie]
4855
4856 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
4857 [Ben Laurie]
4858
4859 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
4860 [Bodo Moeller]
4861
4862
4863 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
4864
4865 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
4866
4867 *) Updated some demos.
4868 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
4869
4870 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
4871 [Wu Zhigang]
4872
4873 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
4874 [Steve Henson]
4875
4876 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
4877 [Steve Henson]
4878
4879 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
4880 instead of using a fixed path.
4881 [Bodo Moeller]
4882
4883 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
4884 [Andy Polyakov]
4885
4886 *) Improvements for VMS support.
4887 [Richard Levitte]
4888
4889
4890 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
4891
4892 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
4893 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
4894 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4895
4896 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
4897 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
4898 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
4899 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
4900 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
4901 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
4902 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
4903 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
4904 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
4905 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
4906 [Steve Henson]
4907
4908 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
4909 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
4910 [Steve Henson]
4911
4912 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
4913 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
4914 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
4915 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
4916 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
4917
4918 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
4919 [Bodo Moeller]
4920
4921 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
4922 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
4923 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
4924 [Steve Henson]
4925
4926 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
4927 [Ben Laurie]
4928
4929 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
4930 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
4931 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
4932 key elements as negative integers.
4933 [Steve Henson]
4934
4935 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
4936 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4937
4938 *) VMS support.
4939 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
4940
4941 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
4942 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
4943 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
4944 [Steve Henson]
4945
4946 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
4947 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
4948 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
4949 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
4950 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
4951 [Bodo Moeller]
4952
4953 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
4954 [Ulf Möller]
4955
4956 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
4957 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
4958 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
4959 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4960
4961 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
4962 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
4963 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
4964
4965 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
4966 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
4967 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
4968 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
4969 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
4970 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
4971 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
4972 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
4973 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
4974
4975 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
4976 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
4977 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
4978 does not influence s as it used to.
4979
4980 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
4981 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
4982 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
4983 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
4984 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
4985 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
4986 [Bodo Moeller]
4987
4988 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
4989 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
4990 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
4991 key type.
4992 [Steve Henson]
4993
4994 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
4995 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
4996 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
4997 and 'x509').
4998 [Steve Henson]
4999
5000 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
5001 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
5002 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
5003 extension option.
5004 [Steve Henson]
5005
5006 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
5007 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
5008 [Ben Laurie]
5009
5010 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
5011 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
5012
5013 *) Support Mingw32.
5014 [Ulf Möller]
5015
5016 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
5017 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5018
5019 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
5020 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5021
5022 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
5023 [Ulf Möller]
5024
5025 *) Update HPUX configuration.
5026 [Anonymous]
5027
5028 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
5029 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5030
5031 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
5032 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
5033 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
5034 DER-encoded.)
5035 [Bodo Moeller]
5036
5037 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
5038 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
5039 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
5040 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
5041 now it really counts the depth.
5042 [Bodo Moeller]
5043
5044 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
5045 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
5046 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
5047 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
5048 didn't match the private key).
5049
5050 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
5051 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
5052 connection using the SSL_CTX).
5053 [Bodo Moeller]
5054
5055 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
5056 [Ulf Möller]
5057
5058 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
5059 David Harris.
5060 [Bodo Moeller]
5061
5062 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
5063 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
5064 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
5065 [Bodo Moeller]
5066
5067 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
5068 [Bodo Moeller]
5069
5070 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
5071 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
5072 such as /usr/local/bin.
5073 [Bodo Moeller]
5074
5075 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
5076 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
5077
5078 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
5079 [Ulf Möller]
5080
5081 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
5082 extension adding in x509 utility.
5083 [Steve Henson]
5084
5085 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
5086 [Ulf Möller]
5087
5088 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
5089 prototypes.
5090 [Steve Henson]
5091
5092 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
5093 [Ulf Möller]
5094
5095 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
5096 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
5097 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
5098 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
5099 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
5100 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
5101 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
5102 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
5103 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
5104 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
5105 [Steve Henson]
5106
5107 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
5108 [Bodo Moeller]
5109
5110 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
5111 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
5112 [Bodo Moeller]
5113
5114 *) Fix some race conditions.
5115 [Bodo Moeller]
5116
5117 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
5118 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
5119 [Steve Henson]
5120
5121 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
5122 [Ulf Möller]
5123
5124 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
5125 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
5126 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
5127 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
5128
5129 *) Fix lots of warnings.
5130 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5131
5132 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
5133 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
5134 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5135
5136 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
5137 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5138
5139 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
5140 [Ulf Möller]
5141
5142 *) Fix typos in error codes.
5143 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
5144
5145 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
5146 [Ulf Möller]
5147
5148 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
5149 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5150
5151 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
5152 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
5153 [Steve Henson]
5154
5155 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
5156 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
5157 [Ben Laurie]
5158
5159 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
5160 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
5161 [Steve Henson]
5162
5163 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
5164 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
5165 [Steve Henson]
5166
5167 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
5168 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
5169 [Steve Henson]
5170
5171 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
5172 support typesafe stack.
5173 [Steve Henson]
5174
5175 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
5176 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
5177
5178 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
5179 old X509V3 handling code.
5180 [Steve Henson]
5181
5182 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
5183 [Ulf Möller]
5184
5185 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
5186 [Bodo Moeller]
5187
5188 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
5189 [Ben Laurie]
5190
5191 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
5192 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
5193
5194 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
5195 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
5196 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
5197 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
5198 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
5199 [Ben Laurie]
5200
5201 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
5202 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
5203 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
5204 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
5205 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
5206
5207 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
5208 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
5209 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
5210 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5211
5212 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
5213 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
5214 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
5215 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5216
5217 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
5218 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
5219 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
5220 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
5221 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
5222 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
5223 [Bodo Moeller]
5224
5225 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
5226 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
5227 [Bodo Moeller]
5228
5229 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
5230 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
5231 [Ulf Möller]
5232
5233 *) Tweaks to Configure
5234 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
5235
5236 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
5237 yet...
5238 [Steve Henson]
5239
5240 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
5241 [Ulf Möller]
5242
5243 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
5244 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
5245 [Ulf Möller]
5246
5247 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
5248 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
5249 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
5250 [Bodo Moeller]
5251
5252 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
5253 [Bodo Moeller]
5254
5255 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
5256 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
5257 [Steve Henson]
5258
5259 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
5260 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
5261 to library startup routines.
5262 [Steve Henson]
5263
5264 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
5265 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
5266 codes along the way.
5267 [Steve Henson]
5268
5269 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
5270 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
5271 objects to objects.h
5272 [Steve Henson]
5273
5274 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
5275 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
5276 [Steve Henson]
5277
5278 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
5279 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
5280
5281 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
5282 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
5283 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
5284
5285 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
5286 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
5287 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5288
5289 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
5290 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
5291 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
5292
5293
5294 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
5295
5296 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
5297 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
5298 [Ben Laurie]
5299
5300 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
5301 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
5302 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
5303 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
5304 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
5305
5306 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
5307 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
5308 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
5309 document.
5310 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5311
5312 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
5313 Malloc, Free.
5314 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
5315
5316 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
5317 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5318
5319 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
5320 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
5321 if someone would make that last step automatic.
5322 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
5323
5324 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
5325 [Ben Laurie]
5326
5327 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
5328 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
5329 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
5330 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
5331 [Steve Henson]
5332
5333 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
5334 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
5335 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
5336 [Steve Henson]
5337
5338 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
5339 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
5340 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
5341 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
5342 installed as `perl').
5343 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5344
5345 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
5346 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5347
5348 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
5349 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
5350 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
5351 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
5352 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
5353 [Steve Henson]
5354
5355 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
5356 [Ben Laurie]
5357
5358 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
5359 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
5360 is horrible: I feel ill....
5361 [Steve Henson]
5362
5363 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
5364 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
5365 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
5366 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
5367 [Steve Henson]
5368
5369 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
5370 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5371
5372 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
5373 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
5374 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
5375 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5376
5377 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
5378 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
5379 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
5380 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
5381 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
5382 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
5383 openssl_bio.xs.
5384 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5385
5386 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
5387 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
5388
5389 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
5390 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
5391
5392 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
5393 [Ben Laurie]
5394
5395 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
5396 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
5397 in CRLs.
5398 [Steve Henson]
5399
5400 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
5401 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
5402 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
5403 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
5404 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
5405 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
5406 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
5407 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
5408 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
5409 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
5410 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5411
5412 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
5413 [Ben Laurie]
5414
5415 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
5416 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
5417 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
5418 for linking it into DSOs.
5419 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5420
5421 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
5422 Fixed.
5423 [Ben Laurie]
5424
5425 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
5426 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
5427 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
5428 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
5429 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
5430 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5431
5432 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
5433 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
5434 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
5435 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
5436 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
5437 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
5438 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5439
5440 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
5441 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
5442 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
5443 encryption.
5444 [Ben Laurie]
5445
5446 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
5447 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
5448 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
5449 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
5450 [Steve Henson]
5451
5452 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
5453 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
5454 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
5455 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
5456 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
5457 field as blank.
5458 [Steve Henson]
5459
5460 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
5461 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
5462 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
5463 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
5464 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5465
5466 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
5467 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
5468 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
5469
5470 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
5471 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
5472
5473 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
5474 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
5475 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
5476 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
5477 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
5478 [Steve Henson]
5479
5480 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
5481 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
5482 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
5483 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
5484 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
5485 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
5486 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
5487 [Ben Laurie]
5488
5489 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
5490 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
5491 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
5492 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
5493 [Ben Laurie]
5494
5495 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
5496 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
5497
5498 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
5499 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
5500 [Steve Henson]
5501
5502 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
5503 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
5504 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
5505 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
5506 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
5507 (e.g. s_server).
5508 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
5509 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
5510 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
5511 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
5512 no way to reconfigure them.
5513 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
5514 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
5515 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
5516 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
5517 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
5518 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5519
5520 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
5521 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
5522 recognized by the users.
5523 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5524
5525 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
5526 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
5527 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
5528 already masked variable.
5529 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5530
5531 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
5532 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5533
5534 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
5535 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
5536 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
5537 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5538
5539 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
5540 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
5541 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5542
5543 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
5544 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
5545 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
5546 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
5547 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
5548 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
5549 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
5550 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
5551 now, too.
5552 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5553
5554 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
5555 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
5556 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5557
5558 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
5559 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
5560 config file.
5561 [Steve Henson]
5562
5563 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
5564 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
5565
5566 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
5567 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
5568 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
5569 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
5570 [Ben Laurie]
5571
5572 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
5573 [Steve Henson]
5574
5575 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
5576 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5577
5578 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
5579 [Ben Laurie]
5580
5581 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
5582 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
5583 [Steve Henson]
5584
5585 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
5586 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
5587 [Steve Henson]
5588
5589 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
5590 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
5591 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
5592 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
5593 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
5594 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
5595 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
5596 Ben Laurie]
5597
5598 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
5599 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5600
5601 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
5602 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
5603 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
5604 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
5605 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5606
5607 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
5608 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
5609 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
5610 [Steve Henson]
5611
5612 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
5613 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
5614 an example.
5615 [Steve Henson]
5616
5617 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
5618 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
5619 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5620
5621 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
5622 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
5623 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
5624 build instructions.
5625 [Steve Henson]
5626
5627 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
5628 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
5629 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
5630 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
5631 [Steve Henson]
5632
5633 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
5634 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
5635 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
5636 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
5637 [Ben Laurie]
5638
5639 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
5640 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
5641 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
5642 so it wasn't spotted.
5643 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
5644
5645 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
5646 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
5647 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
5648 vectors if you have them.
5649 [Ben Laurie]
5650
5651 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
5652 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
5653 [Ben Laurie]
5654
5655 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
5656 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
5657 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
5658 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
5659 If you do a:
5660 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
5661 it will update them.
5662 [Steve Henson]
5663
5664 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
5665 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
5666 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
5667 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
5668 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
5669 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
5670 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
5671 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5672
5673 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
5674 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
5675 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
5676 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
5677 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
5678 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
5679 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
5680 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
5681 the crypto/md/ stuff).
5682 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5683
5684 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
5685 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
5686 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
5687 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
5688 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
5689 [Steve Henson]
5690
5691 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
5692 INTEGER code.
5693 [Steve Henson]
5694
5695 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
5696 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5697
5698 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
5699 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5700
5701 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
5702 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
5703 [Ben Laurie]
5704
5705 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
5706 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
5707
5708 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
5709 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
5710
5711 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
5712 [Steve Henson]
5713
5714 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
5715 few typos.
5716 [Steve Henson]
5717
5718 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
5719 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
5720 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
5721 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5722
5723 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
5724 [Steve Henson]
5725
5726 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
5727 [Steve Henson]
5728
5729 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
5730 [Steve Henson]
5731
5732 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
5733 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
5734 [Steve Henson]
5735
5736 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
5737 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
5738 CA extensions.
5739 [Steve Henson]
5740
5741 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
5742 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
5743 [Steve Henson]
5744
5745 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
5746 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
5747 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
5748 [Steve Henson]
5749
5750 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
5751 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
5752 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
5753 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
5754 properly to be processed.
5755 [Steve Henson]
5756
5757 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
5758 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
5759 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
5760 [Ben Laurie]
5761
5762 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
5763 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
5764
5765 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
5766 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
5767 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
5768 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
5769 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
5770 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
5771 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
5772 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
5773 or delete all the .err files.
5774 [Steve Henson]
5775
5776 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
5777 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
5778 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
5779 to regenerate it if needed.
5780 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
5781 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
5782
5783 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
5784 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5785
5786 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
5787 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
5788 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
5789 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
5790 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
5791 [Steve Henson]
5792
5793 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
5794 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5795
5796 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
5797 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5798
5799 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
5800 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
5801 error, but didn't set one).
5802 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5803
5804 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
5805 [Ben Laurie]
5806
5807 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
5808 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
5809 [Steve Henson]
5810
5811 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
5812 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
5813
5814 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
5815 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
5816 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
5817 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
5818 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
5819 OID is not part of the table.
5820 [Steve Henson]
5821
5822 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
5823 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
5824 [Ben Laurie]
5825
5826 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
5827 [Ben Laurie]
5828
5829 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
5830 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
5831 was "1234").
5832 [Steve Henson]
5833
5834 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
5835 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
5836
5837 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
5838 NULL pointers.
5839 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5840
5841 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
5842 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5843
5844 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
5845 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5846
5847 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
5848 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5849
5850 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
5851 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
5852 [Ben Laurie]
5853
5854 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
5855 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
5856 [Steve Henson]
5857
5858 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
5859 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5860
5861 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
5862 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5863
5864 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
5865 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5866
5867 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
5868 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5869
5870 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
5871 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
5872 unused in the certificate verification process.
5873 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5874
5875 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
5876 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
5877 [Steve Henson]
5878
5879 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
5880 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
5881 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
5882
5883 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
5884 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
5885 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
5886 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
5887 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
5888
5889 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
5890 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
5891 [Steve Henson]
5892
5893 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
5894 [Steve Henson]
5895
5896 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
5897 [Paul Sutton]
5898
5899 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
5900 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
5901
5902 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
5903 [Ben Laurie]
5904
5905 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
5906 [Ben Laurie]
5907
5908 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
5909 [Ben Laurie]
5910
5911 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
5912 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
5913 other error libraries.
5914 [Steve Henson]
5915
5916 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
5917 [Steve Henson]
5918
5919 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
5920 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
5921 be read in.
5922 [Steve Henson]
5923
5924 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
5925 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
5926 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
5927 the new set of documenation files.
5928 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5929
5930 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
5931 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
5932 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
5933 number of arguments.
5934 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
5935
5936 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
5937 [Ben Laurie]
5938
5939 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
5940 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
5941 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5942
5943 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
5944 [Ben Laurie]
5945
5946 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
5947 nextstep
5948 ncr-scde
5949 unixware-2.0
5950 unixware-2.0-pentium
5951 sco5-cc.
5952 [Ben Laurie]
5953
5954 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
5955 before they are needed.
5956 [Ben Laurie]
5957
5958 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
5959 [Ben Laurie]
5960
5961
5962 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
5963
5964 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
5965 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
5966 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5967
5968 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
5969 [Paul Sutton]
5970
5971 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
5972 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
5973 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5974
5975 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
5976 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
5977 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
5978
5979 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
5980 when "ssleay" is still not found.
5981 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5982
5983 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
5984 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
5985
5986 *) Updated the README file.
5987 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5988
5989 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
5990 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
5991 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5992
5993 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
5994 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
5995 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5996
5997 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
5998 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
5999 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
6000 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
6001 o removed obsolete TODO file
6002 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
6003 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6004
6005 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
6006 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
6007 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
6008 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
6009 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
6010 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
6011 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6012
6013 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
6014 [Mark J. Cox]
6015
6016 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
6017 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
6018 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
6019 summer 1998.
6020 [The OpenSSL Project]
6021
6022
6023 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
6024
6025 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
6026 [Eric A. Young]
6027
6028 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
6029 [Eric A. Young]
6030
6031 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
6032 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
6033 [Eric A. Young]
6034
6035 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
6036 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
6037 available).
6038 [Eric A. Young]
6039
6040 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
6041 binary structures
6042 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
6043
6044 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
6045 [Eric A. Young]
6046
6047 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
6048 [Eric A. Young]
6049
6050 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
6051 [Eric A. Young]
6052
6053 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
6054 [Eric A. Young]
6055
6056 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
6057 [Eric A. Young]
6058
6059 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
6060 [Eric A. Young]
6061
6062 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
6063 [Eric A. Young]
6064
6065 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
6066 [Eric A. Young]
6067
6068 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
6069 [Eric A. Young]
6070
6071 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
6072 [Eric A. Young]
6073
6074 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
6075 [Eric A. Young]
6076
6077 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
6078 [Eric A. Young]
6079
6080 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
6081 [Eric A. Young]
6082
6083 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
6084 [Eric A. Young]
6085
6086 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
6087 [Eric A. Young]
6088
6089 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
6090 [Eric A. Young]
6091
6092 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
6093 [Eric A. Young]
6094
6095 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
6096 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
6097 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
6098 [Eric A. Young]
6099
6100 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
6101 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
6102 [Eric A. Young]
6103
6104 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
6105 [Eric A. Young]
6106
6107 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
6108 [Eric A. Young]
6109
6110 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
6111 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
6112 [Eric A. Young]
6113
6114 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
6115 [Eric A. Young]
6116
6117 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
6118 [Eric A. Young]
6119
6120 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
6121 bytes sent in the client random.
6122 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
6123
