10 Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
11
12 *) Add prediction resistance to the DRBG reseeding process.
13 [Paul Dale]
14
15 *) Limit the number of blocks in a data unit for AES-XTS to 2^20 as
16 mandated by IEEE Std 1619-2018.
17 [Paul Dale]
18
19 *) Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
20 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the '*sum'
21 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
22 [Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale]
23
24 *) Removed the heartbeat message in DTLS feature, as it has very
25 little usage and doesn't seem to fulfill a valuable purpose.
26 The configuration option is now deprecated.
27 [Richard Levitte]
28
29 *) Changed the output of 'openssl {digestname} < file' to display the
30 digest name in its output.
31 [Richard Levitte]
32
33 *) Added a new generic trace API which provides support for enabling
34 instrumentation through trace output. This feature is mainly intended
35 as an aid for developers and is disabled by default. To utilize it,
36 OpenSSL needs to be configured with the `enable-trace` option.
37
38 If the tracing API is enabled, the application can activate trace output
39 by registering BIOs as trace channels for a number of tracing and debugging
40 categories.
41
42 The 'openssl' application has been expanded to enable any of the types
43 available via environment variables defined by the user, and serves as
44 one possible example on how to use this functionality.
45 [Richard Levitte & Matthias St. Pierre]
46
47 *) Added build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
48 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
49 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
50
51 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
52 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
53 [Richard Levitte]
54
55 *) Add Single Step KDF (EVP_KDF_SS) to EVP_KDF.
56 [Shane Lontis]
57
58 *) Add KMAC to EVP_MAC.
59 [Shane Lontis]
60
61 *) Added property based algorithm implementation selection framework to
62 the core.
63 [Paul Dale]
64
65 *) Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
66 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
67 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
68 to affine coordinates.
69 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
70
71 *) Added EVP_KDF, an EVP layer KDF API, to simplify adding KDF and PRF
72 implementations. This includes an EVP_PKEY to EVP_KDF bridge for
73 those algorithms that were already supported through the EVP_PKEY API
74 (scrypt, TLS1 PRF and HKDF). The low-level KDF functions for PBKDF2
75 and scrypt are now wrappers that call EVP_KDF.
76 [David Makepeace]
77
78 *) Build devcrypto engine as a dynamic engine.
79 [Eneas U de Queiroz]
80
81 *) Add keyed BLAKE2 to EVP_MAC.
82 [Antoine Salon]
83
84 *) Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
85 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
86 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
87 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
88 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
89 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
90
91 *) Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
92 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
93 [Bernd Edlinger]
94
95 *) Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
96 [Richard Levitte]
97
98 *) Change the license to the Apache License v2.0.
99 [Richard Levitte]
100
101 *) Change the possible version information given with OPENSSL_API_COMPAT.
102 It may be a pre-3.0.0 style numerical version number as it was defined
103 in 1.1.0, and it may also simply take the major version number.
104
105 Because of the version numbering of pre-3.0.0 releases, the values 0,
106 1 and 2 are equivalent to 0x00908000L (0.9.8), 0x10000000L (1.0.0) and
107 0x10100000L (1.1.0), respectively.
108 [Richard Levitte]
109
110 *) Switch to a new version scheme using three numbers MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
111
112 o Major releases (indicated by incrementing the MAJOR release number)
113 may introduce incompatible API/ABI changes.
114 o Minor releases (indicated by incrementing the MINOR release number)
115 may introduce new features but retain API/ABI compatibility.
116 o Patch releases (indicated by incrementing the PATCH number)
117 are intended for bug fixes and other improvements of existing
118 features only (like improving performance or adding documentation)
119 and retain API/ABI compatibility.
120 [Richard Levitte]
121
122 *) Add support for RFC5297 SIV mode (siv128), including AES-SIV.
123 [Todd Short]
124
125 *) Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
126 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
127 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
128 [Richard Levitte]
129
130 *) Recreate the OS390-Unix config target. It no longer relies on a
131 special script like it did for OpenSSL pre-1.1.0.
132 [Richard Levitte]
133
134 *) Instead of having the source directories listed in Configure, add
135 a 'build.info' keyword SUBDIRS to indicate what sub-directories to
136 look into.
137 [Richard Levitte]
138
139 *) Add GMAC to EVP_MAC.
140 [Paul Dale]
141
142 *) Ported the HMAC, CMAC and SipHash EVP_PKEY_METHODs to EVP_MAC.
143 [Richard Levitte]
144
145 *) Added EVP_MAC, an EVP layer MAC API, to simplify adding MAC
146 implementations. This includes a generic EVP_PKEY to EVP_MAC bridge,
147 to facilitate the continued use of MACs through raw private keys in
148 functionality such as EVP_DigestSign* and EVP_DigestVerify*.
149 [Richard Levitte]
150
151 *) Deprecate ECDH_KDF_X9_62() and mark its replacement as internal. Users
152 should use the EVP interface instead (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_type).
153 [Antoine Salon]
154
155 *) Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
156 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
157 are retained for backwards compatibility.
158 [Antoine Salon]
159
160 *) AES-XTS mode now enforces that its two keys are different to mitigate
161 the attacked described in "Efficient Instantiations of Tweakable
162 Blockciphers and Refinements to Modes OCB and PMAC" by Phillip Rogaway.
163 Details of this attack can be obtained from:
164 http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/%7Erogaway/papers/offsets.pdf
165 [Paul Dale]
166
167 *) Rename the object files, i.e. give them other names than in previous
168 versions. Their names now include the name of the final product, as
169 well as its type mnemonic (bin, lib, shlib).
170 [Richard Levitte]
171
172 *) Added new option for 'openssl list', '-objects', which will display the
173 list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names.
174 [Richard Levitte]
175
176 *) Added support for Linux Kernel TLS data-path. The Linux Kernel data-path
177 improves application performance by removing data copies and providing
178 applications with zero-copy system calls such as sendfile and splice.
179 [Boris Pismenny]
180
181 Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [xx XXX xxxx]
182
183 *) Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
184 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
185 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
186 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
187 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
188 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
189 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
190 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
191 applications.
192 [Matt Caswell]
193
194 Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
195
196 *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
197
198 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
199 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
200 algorithm to recover the private key.
201
202 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
203 (CVE-2018-0734)
204 [Paul Dale]
205
206 *) Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
207
208 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
209 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
210 algorithm to recover the private key.
211
212 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
213 (CVE-2018-0735)
214 [Paul Dale]
215
216 *) Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
217 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
218 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
219
220 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
221 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
222 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
223 provided by the application.
224
225 Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
226
227 *) Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
228 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
229 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
230 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
231 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
232 of the ClientHello
233 [Benjamin Kaduk]
234
235 *) Add SM2 base algorithm support.
236 [Jack Lloyd]
237
238 *) s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
239 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
240 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
241 [Patrick Steuer]
242
243 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
244 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
245 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
246 [Richard Levitte]
247
248 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
249 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
250 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
251 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
252 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
253 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
254 to work in projective coordinates.
255 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
256
257 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
258 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
259 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
260 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
261 to 2^-128.
262 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
263
264 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
265 [Kurt Roeckx]
266
267 *) The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
268 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
269 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
270 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
271 [Richard Levitte]
272
273 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
274 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
275 [Andy Polyakov]
276
277 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
278 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
279 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
280 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
281 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
282
283 *) Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
284 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
285 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
286 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
287 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
288 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
289
290 *) Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
291 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
292 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
293 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
294 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
295 [Paul Dale]
296
297 *) Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
298 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
299 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
300 authors.
301 [Matt Caswell]
302
303 *) AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
304 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
305 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
306 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
307 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
308 multi-version installation is managed.
309 [Andy Polyakov]
310
311 *) Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
312 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
313 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
314 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
315 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
316 [Billy Bob Brumley]
317
318 *) Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
319 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
320 chosen point SCA attacks.
321 [Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley]
322
323 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
324 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
325 [Matt Caswell]
326
327 *) Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
328 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
329 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
330 [Matt Caswell]
331
332 *) SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
333 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
334 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
335 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
336 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
337 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
338 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
339 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
340 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
341 [Kurt Roeckx]
342
343 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
344 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
345 [Richard Levitte]
346
347 *) Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
348 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
349 [Billy Bob Brumley]
350
351 *) Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
352 binary and prime elliptic curves.
353 [Billy Bob Brumley]
354
355 *) Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
356 constant time fixed point multiplication.
357 [Billy Bob Brumley]
358
359 *) Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
360 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
361 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
362 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
363 ECDH derive operations).
364 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
365 Sohaib ul Hassan]
366
367 *) Updated CONTRIBUTING
368 [Rich Salz]
369
370 *) Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
371 randomness from the system.
372 [Matthias St. Pierre]
373
374 *) Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
375 [Richard Levitte]
376
377 *) Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
378 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
379 [Matt Caswell]
380
381 *) Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
382 [Matt Caswell]
383
384 *) Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
385 [Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz]
386
387 *) Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
388 [Richard Levitte]
389
390 *) Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
391 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
392 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
393 [Matt Caswell]
394
395 *) Memory allocation failures consistenly add an error to the error
396 stack.
397 [Rich Salz]
398
399 *) Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
400 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
401 [Bernd Edlinger]
402
403 *) Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
404 [Matt Caswell]
405
406 *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
407 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
408 [Matthias St. Pierre]
409
410 *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
411 for the license change).
412 [Rich Salz]
413
414 *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
415 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
416 [Matt Caswell]
417
418 *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
419 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
420 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
421 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
422 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
423 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
424 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
425 [Matt Caswell]
426
427 *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
428 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
429 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
430 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
431 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
432 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
433 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
434 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
435 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
436 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
437 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
438 written to stderr.
439 [Viktor Dukhovni]
440
441 *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
442 Mike Hamburg.
443 [Matt Caswell]
444
445 *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
446 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
447 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
448 get the search data out of them.
449 [Richard Levitte]
450
451 *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
452 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
453 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
454 https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3
455 [Matt Caswell]
456
457 *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
458
459 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
460 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
461 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
462 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
463 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
464 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
465
466 Some of its new features are:
467 o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
468 o The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
469 o There is a public and private DRBG instance.
470 o The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
471 o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
472 o The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
473 operation
474 [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
475
476 *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
477 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
478 to display all sorts of configuration data.
479 [Richard Levitte]
480
481 *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
482 [Richard Levitte]
483
484 *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
485 [Paul Dale]
486
487 *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
488 now been removed.
489 [Rich Salz]
490
491 *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
492 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
493 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
494 debug (or make silent).
495 [Richard Levitte]
496
497 *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
498 arguments to config / Configure.
499 [Richard Levitte]
500
501 *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
502 [Paul Yang]
503
504 *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
505 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
506 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
507 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
508
509 *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
510 as documented in RFC6066.
511 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
512 [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
513
514 *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
515 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
516 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
517 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
518
519 *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
520 original author does not agree with the license change.
521 [Rich Salz]
522
523 *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
524 [Jon Spillett]
525
526 *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
527 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
528 [Rich Salz]
529
530 *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
531 without clearing the errors.
532 [Richard Levitte]
533
534 *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
535 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
536 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
537 [Rich Salz]
538
539 *) Add SHA3.
540 [Andy Polyakov]
541
542 *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
543 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
544 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
545 as a fallback).
546
547 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
548 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
549 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
550 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
551 [Richard Levitte]
552
553 *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
554 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
555 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
556 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
557 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
558 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
559 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
560 [Richard Levitte]
561
562 *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
563 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
564 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
565 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
566 [Richard Levitte]
567
568 *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
569 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
570 error code calls like this:
571
572 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
573
574 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
575 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
576 affect new modules.
577 [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
578
579 *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
580 [Rich Salz]
581
582 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
583 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
584 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
585 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
586 [Richard Levitte]
587
588 *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
589 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
590 than just the call where this user data is passed.
591 [Richard Levitte]
592
593 *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
594 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
595 [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
596
597 *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
598 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
599 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
600 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
601 prohibts this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
602 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
603 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause inter-operability
604 issues.
605 [Matt Caswell]
606
607 *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
608 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
609 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
610 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
611 [Richard Levitte]
612
613 *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
614 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
615 [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
616
617 *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
618 does for RSA, etc.
619 [Richard Levitte]
620
621 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
622 platform rather than 'mingw'.
623 [Richard Levitte]
624
625 *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
626 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
627 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
628 certificates and CRLs.
629 [Paul Dale]
630
631 *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
632 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
633 [Andy Polyakov]
634
635 *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
636 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
637 [Richard Levitte]
638
639 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
640 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
641 which is the minimum version we support.
642 [Richard Levitte]
643
644 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
645 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
646 are no longer allowed.
647 [Emilia Käsper]
648
649 *) Add support for ARIA
650 [Paul Dale]
651
652 *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
653 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
654 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
655 using "-servername".
656 [Matt Caswell]
657
658 *) Add support for SipHash
659 [Todd Short]
660
661 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
662 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
663 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
664 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
665 [Matt Caswell]
666
667 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
668 using the algorithm defined in
669 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
670 [Richard Levitte]
671
672 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
673 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
674
675 *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
676 [Emilia Käsper]
677
678 *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
679 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
680 [Rich Salz]
681
682
683 Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [xx XXX xxxx]
684
685 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
686
687 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
688 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
689 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
690 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
691 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
692
693 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
694 (CVE-2018-0732)
695 [Guido Vranken]
696
697 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
698
699 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
700 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
701 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
702 recover the private key.
703
704 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
705 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
706 (CVE-2018-0737)
707 [Billy Brumley]
708
709 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
710 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
711 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
712 [Richard Levitte]
713
714 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
715 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
716 [Andy Polyakov]
717
718 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
719 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
720 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
721 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
722 to 2^-128.
723 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
724
725 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
726 [Kurt Roeckx]
727
728 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
729 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
730 [Matt Caswell]
731
732 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
733 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
734 [Richard Levitte]
735
736 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
737 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
738 are no longer allowed.
739 [Emilia Käsper]
740
741 *) Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
742
743 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
744 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
745 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
746 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
747 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
748 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
749 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
750 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
751 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
752 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
753 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
754 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
755 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).
756 [Matt Caswell]
757
758 Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
759
760 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
761
762 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
763 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
764 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
765 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
766 so this is considered safe.
767
768 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
769 project.
770 (CVE-2018-0739)
771 [Matt Caswell]
772
773 *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
774
775 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
776 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
777 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
778 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
779 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
780 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
781
782 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
783 (IBM).
784 (CVE-2018-0733)
785 [Andy Polyakov]
786
787 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
788 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
789 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
790 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
791 [Richard Levitte]
792
793 *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
794
795 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
796 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
797 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
798 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
799 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
800
801 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
802 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
803 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
804 [Matt Caswell]
805
806 *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
807 exist.
808 [Rich Salz]
809
810 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
811
812 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
813 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
814 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
815 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
816 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
817 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
818 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
819 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
820 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
821 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
822
823 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
824 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
825
826 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
827 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
828 (CVE-2017-3738)
829 [Andy Polyakov]
830
831 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
832
833 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
834
835 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
836 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
837 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
838 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
839 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
840 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
841 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
842 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
843 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
844 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
845 key that is shared between multiple clients.
846
847 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
848 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
849
850 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
851 (CVE-2017-3736)
852 [Andy Polyakov]
853
854 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
855
856 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
857 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
858 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
859
860 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
861 (CVE-2017-3735)
862 [Rich Salz]
863
864 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
865
866 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
867 platform rather than 'mingw'.
868 [Richard Levitte]
869
870 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
871 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
872 which is the minimum version we support.

874
875 Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
876
877 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
878
879 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
880 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
881 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
882 and servers are affected.
883
884 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
885 (CVE-2017-3733)
886 [Matt Caswell]
887
888 Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
889
890 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
891
892 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
893 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
894 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
895
896 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
897 (CVE-2017-3731)
898 [Andy Polyakov]
899
900 *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
901
902 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
903 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
904 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
905 of Service attack.
906
907 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
908 (CVE-2017-3730)
909 [Matt Caswell]
910
911 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
912
913 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
914 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
915 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
916 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
917 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
918 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
919 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
920 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
921 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
922 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
923 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
924 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
925 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
926
927 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
928 (CVE-2017-3732)

931 Changes between 1.1.0b and 1.1.0c [10 Nov 2016]
932
933 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
934
935 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
936 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
937 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.
938
939 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki (Google Security Team)
940 (CVE-2016-7054)
941 [Richard Levitte]
942
943 *) CMS Null dereference
944
945 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
946 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
947 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
948 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
949 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
950 affected.
951
952 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
953 (CVE-2016-7053)
954 [Stephen Henson]
955
956 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
957
958 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
959 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
960 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
961 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
962 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
963 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
964 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
965 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
966 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
967 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
968 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
969 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
970 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
971 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
972
973 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
974 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
975 providing reproducible case.
976 (CVE-2016-7055)
977 [Andy Polyakov]
978
979 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
980 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
981 [Richard Levitte]
982
983 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
984
985 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
986
987 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
988 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
989 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
990 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
991 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
992 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
993
994 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.

1000 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
1001
1002 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
1003
1004 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
1005 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
1006 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
1007 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
1008 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
1009 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
1010 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.

1015
1016 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
1017
1018 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
1019 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
1020 Denial Of Service attack.

1022 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
1023 (CVE-2016-6305)
1024 [Matt Caswell]
1025
1026 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
1027 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
1028
1029 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
1030 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
1031 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
1032 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
1033 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
1034 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
1035 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
1036 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
1037 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
1038 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
1039 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
1040 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
1041 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
1042 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
1043 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
1044
1045 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
1046 that the connection fails
1047 or
1048 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
1049 very little free memory
1050 or
1051 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
1052 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
1053 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
1054 memory to service the multiple requests.
1055
1056 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
1057 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
1058 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
1059 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
1060 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
1061
1062 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1063 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
1064 [Matt Caswell]
1065
1066 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
1067 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
1068 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
1069 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
1070 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
1071 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
1072 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
1073 [Andy Polyakov]
1074
1075 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
1076
1077 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
1078 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
1079 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
1080 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
1081 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
1082 non-ASCII password.
1083 [Andy Polyakov]
1084
1085 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
1086 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
1087 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
1088 [Rich Salz]
1089
1090 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
1091 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
1092 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
1093 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
1094 [Matt Caswell]
1095
1096 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
1097 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
1098 success.
1099 [Matt Caswell]
1100
1101 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
1102 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
1103 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
1104 no-ops and deprecated.
1105 [Matt Caswell]
1106
1107 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
1108 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
1109 were also closed.
1110 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
1111
1112 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
1113 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
1114 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
1115 [Rich Salz]
1116
1117 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
1118 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
1119 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
1120 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
1121 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
1122 and the validity of object reference counter.
1123 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
1124
1125 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
1126 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
1127 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
1128 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
1129 [Richard Levitte]
1130
1131 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
1132 [Richard Levitte]
1133
1134 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
1135 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
1136 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
1137 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
1138
1139 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
1140
1141 [Richard Levitte]
1142
1143 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
1144 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
1145 [Steve Henson]
1146
1147 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
1148 [Andy Polyakov]
1149
1150 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
1151 [Rich Salz]
1152
1153 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
1154 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
1155 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
1156 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
1157 name and is used as is.
1158 [Richard Levitte]
1159
1160 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
1161 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
1162 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
1163 [Rich Salz]
1164
1165 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
1166 the "no-shared" Configure option.
1167 [Matt Caswell]
1168
1169 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
1170 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
1171 algorithms.
1172 [Matt Caswell]
1173
1174 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
1175 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
1176 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
1177 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
1178 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
1179 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
1180 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
1181 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
1182 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
1183 [Matt Caswell]
1184
1185 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
1186 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
1187 enabled with '--debug' builds.
1188 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
1189
1190 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
1191 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1192 these have been added.
1193 [Matt Caswell]
1194
1195 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
1196 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
1197 functions for managing these have been added.
1198 [Richard Levitte]
1199
1200 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1201 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1202 these have been added.
1203 [Matt Caswell]
1204
1205 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1206 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1207 have been added.
1208 [Matt Caswell]
1209
1210 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1211 [Matt Caswell]
1212
1213 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1214 [Richard Levitte]
1215
1216 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1217 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1218 [Rich Salz]
1219
1220 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1221 [Richard Levitte]
1222
1223 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1224 [Rich Salz]
1225
1226 *) Add support for HKDF.
1227 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1228
1229 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1230 [Bill Cox]
1231
1232 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1233 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1234 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1235 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1236 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1237 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1238 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1239 [Matt Caswell]
1240
1241 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1242 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1243 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1244 [Catriona Lucey]
1245
1246 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1247 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1248 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1249 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1250 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1251 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1252 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1253
1254 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1255 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1256 [Todd Short]
1257
1258 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1259 [Todd Short]
1260
1261 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1262 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1263 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1264 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1265 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1266 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1267 default cipherlist.
1268 [Emilia Käsper]
1269
1270 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1271 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1272 [Rich Salz]
1273
1274 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1275 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1276 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1277 [Matt Caswell]
1278
1279 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1280 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1281 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1282 implemented by other servers.
1283 [Emilia Käsper]
1284
1285 *) Add X25519 support.
1286 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1287 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1288 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1289 key generation and key derivation.
1290
1291 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1292 X25519(29).
1293 [Steve Henson]
1294
1295 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1296 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1297 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1298 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1299 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1300
1301 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1302 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1303 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1304 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1305 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1306 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1307 that of a valid user.
1308 [Emilia Käsper]
1309
1310 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1311 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1312 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1313 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1314
1315 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1316 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1317
1318 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1319 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1320 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1321 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1322
1323 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1324 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1325 irrelevant.
1326 [Richard Levitte]
1327
1328 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1329 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1330 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1331 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1332 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1333 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1334
1335 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1336 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1337 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1338 [Richard Levitte]
1339
1340 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1341 [Rich Salz]
1342
1343 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1344 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1345 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1346 removed.
1347 [Richard Levitte]
1348
1349 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1350 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1351 old #define's might need to be updated.
1352 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1353
1354 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1355 [Rich Salz]
1356
1357 *) New "unified" build system
1358
1359 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1360 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1361
1362 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1363 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1364 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1365
1366 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1367 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1368 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1369 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1370 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1371
1372 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1373 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1374 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1375 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1376 libraries" in INSTALL.
1377
1378 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1379 [Richard Levitte]
1380
1381 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1382 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1383 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1384 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1385 [Matt Caswell]
1386
1387 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1388 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1389
1390 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1391 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1392 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1393 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1394 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1395 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1396 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1397 have been adapted accordingly.
1398 [Richard Levitte]
1399
1400 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1401 the leading 0-byte.
1402 [Emilia Käsper]
1403
1404 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1405 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1406 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1407 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1408 [Emilia Käsper]
1409
1410 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1411 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1412 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1413 'unsigned char*'.
1414 [Emilia Käsper]
1415
1416 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1417 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1418 [Emilia Käsper]
1419
1420 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1421 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1422 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1423 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1424 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1425 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1426 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1427
1428 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1429 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1430
1431 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1432 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1433 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1434 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1435 Text::Template.
1436
1437 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1438 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1439 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1440 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1441 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1442 %target).
1443 [Richard Levitte]
1444
1445 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1446 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1447 straightforward and less interdependent.
1448
1449 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1450 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1451 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1452
1453 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1454 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1455 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1456 installed.
1457 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1458 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1459 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1460 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1461
1462 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1463 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1464 [Richard Levitte]
1465
1466 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1467 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1468 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1469 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1470 is present).
1471 [Matt Caswell]
1472
1473 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1474 configuring.
1475 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1476
1477 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1478 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1479 before trying to build now.*
1480 [Rich Salz]
1481
1482 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1483 has changed.
1484 [Rich Salz]
1485
1486 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1487
1488 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1489 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1490 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
1491 used to authenticate the peer.
1492
1493 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
1494 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
1495 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
1496 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
1497 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
1498 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1499
1500 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
1501 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
1502 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
1503 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
1504 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
1505 or the 1.1.0 releases.
1506
1507 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
1508 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
1509 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
1510 support for the deprecated features from the library and
1511 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
1512 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
1513 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
1514 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
1515 version.
1516
1517 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
1518 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
1519 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
1520 compile with later releases.
1521
1522 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
1523 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
1524 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
1525 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
1526 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
1527 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1528
1529 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
1530 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
1531 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
1532 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
1533 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
1534 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
1535 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
1536 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
1537 [Kurt Roeckx]
1538
1539 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
1540 [Andy Polyakov]
1541
1542 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
1543 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
1544 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
1545 ECDSA_SIG format.
1546
1547 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
1548 include the ec.h header file instead.
1549 [Steve Henson]
1550
1551 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
1552 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
1553 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
1554 [Kurt Roeckx]
1555
1556 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
1557 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
1558 were added:
1559
1560 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
1561 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
1562
1563 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
1564 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
1565 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
1566
1567 Additional changes:
1568 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
1569 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
1570 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
1571 an already created structure.
1572 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
1573 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
1574 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
1575 for deprecated builds.
1576 [Richard Levitte]
1577
1578 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
1579 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
1580 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
1581 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
1582 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
1583 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
1584 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
1585 [Matt Caswell]
1586
1587 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
1588 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
1589 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
1590 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
1591 [Kurt Roeckx]
1592
1593 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
1594 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
1595 [Kurt Roeckx]
1596
1597 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
1598 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
1599 [Kurt Roeckx]
1600
1601 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
1602 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
1603 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
1604 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
1605 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
1606 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
1607 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
1608 also been removed.
1609 [Matt Caswell]
1610
1611 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
1612 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
1613 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
1614 [Rich Salz]
1615
1616 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
1617 [Rich Salz]
1618
1619 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
1620 sureware and ubsec.
1621 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
1622
1623 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
1624
1625 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
1626 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
1627
1628 FOO *x;
1629
1630 it must be:
1631
1632 FOO x;
1633
1634 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
1635 set a mandatory field to NULL.
1636
1637 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
1638 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
1639 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
1640 SEQUENCE OF.
1641 [Steve Henson]
1642
1643 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
1644 [Emilia Käsper]
1645
1646 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
1647 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
1648 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
1649 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
1650 [Matt Caswell]
1651
1652 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
1653 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
1654 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
1655 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
1656 [Emilia Käsper]
1657
1658 *) Fix no-stdio build.
1659 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
1660 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
1661
1662 *) New testing framework
1663 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
1664 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
1665 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
1666 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
1667 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
1668 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
1669
1670 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
1671
1672 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
1673 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
1674
1675 [Richard Levitte]
1676
1677 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
1678 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
1679 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
1680 and others were changed. All are now documented.
1681 [Rich Salz]
1682
1683 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
1684 return an error
1685 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
1686
1687 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
1688 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
1689
1690 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
1691 original RSA_PSK patch.
1692 [Steve Henson]
1693
1694 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
1695 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
1696 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
1697 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
1698 [Matt Caswell]
1699
1700 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
1701 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
1702 [Richard Levitte]
1703
1704 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
1705 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
1706 hasn't been working properly for a while.
1707 [Emilia Käsper]
1708
1709 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
1710 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
1711 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
1712 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
1713 transferred.
1714 [Matt Caswell]
1715
1716 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
1717 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
1718 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
1719 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
1720 [Matt Caswell]
1721
1722 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
1723 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
1724 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
1725 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
1726 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
1727 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
1728 [Matt Caswell]
1729
1730 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
1731 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
1732 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
1733 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
1734 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
1735 header file has been removed.
1736 [Matt Caswell]
1737
1738 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
1739 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
1740 [Matt Caswell]
1741
1742 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
1743 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
1744 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
1745
1746 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
1747 Added a test.
1748 [Rich Salz]
1749
1750 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
1751 [Rich Salz]
1752
1753 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
1754 sha256
1755 [Rich Salz]
1756
1757 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
1758 [Matt Caswell]
1759
1760 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
1761 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
1762 initial patch which was a great help during development.
1763 [Steve Henson]
1764
1765 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
1766 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
1767 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
1768 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
1769 [Matt Caswell]
1770
1771 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
1772 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
1773 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
1774 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
1775 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
1776 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
1777 [Matt Caswell]
1778
1779 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
1780 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
1781 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
1782 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
1783 [Matt Caswell]
1784
1785 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
1786 compatible client hello.
1787 [Kurt Roeckx]
1788
1789 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
1790 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
1791 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
1792
1793 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
1794 [Rich Salz]
1795
1796 *) Removed old DES API.
1797 [Rich Salz]
1798
1799 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
1800 Sony NEWS4
1801 BEOS and BEOS_R5
1802 NeXT
1803 SUNOS
1804 MPE/iX
1805 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
1806 DGUX
1807 NCR
1808 Tandem
1809 Cray
1810 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
1811 [Rich Salz]
1812
1813 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
1814 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
1815 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
1816 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
1817 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
1818 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
1819 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
1820 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
1821 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
1822 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
1823 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
1824 [Rich Salz]
1825
1826 *) Cleaned up dead code
1827 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
1828 [Rich Salz]
1829
1830 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
1831 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
1832 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
1833 [Rich Salz]
1834
1835 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
1836 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
1837 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
1838 [Rich Salz]
1839
1840 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
1841 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
1842 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
1843
1844 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
1845 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
1846 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
1847
1848 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1849 compilation flags.
1850 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1851
1852 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1853 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1854 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1855
1856 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1857 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1858
1859 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1860 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1861 server.
1862
1863 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1864 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1865 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1866 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1867
1868 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1869 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1870 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1871 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1872
1873 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1874 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1875 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1876
1877 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1878 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1879 [Steve Henson]
1880
1881 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
1882
1883 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
1884 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
1885
1886 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
1887 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
1888
1889 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
1890 effect.
1891
1892 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
1893
1894 [Steve Henson]
1895
1896 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1897 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1898 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1899 algorithms and include tests cases.
1900 [Steve Henson]
1901
1902 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
1903 enveloped data.
1904 [Steve Henson]
1905
1906 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1907 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1908 [Steve Henson]
1909
1910 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1911 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1912
1913 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
1914 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
1915 [Steve Henson]
1916
1917 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
1918 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
1919 failures.
1920 [Steve Henson]
1921
1922 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
1923 sign or verify all in one operation.
1924 [Steve Henson]
1925
1926 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
1927 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
1928 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
1929 [Steve Henson]
1930
1931 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
1932 [Steve Henson]
1933
1934 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
1935 [Steve Henson]
1936
1937 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
1938 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
1939 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
1940 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
1941 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
1942 [Steve Henson]
1943
1944 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
1945 based on NID.
1946 [Steve Henson]
1947
1948 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
1949 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
1950 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
1951 [Steve Henson]
1952
1953 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
1954 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
1955
1956 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
1957 POST to handle HMAC cases.
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
1961 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
1962 [Steve Henson]
1963
1964 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
1965 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
1966 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1967 [Steve Henson]
1968
1969 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
1970 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
1971 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
1972 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
1973 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
1974 requested amount of entropy.
1975 [Steve Henson]
1976
1977 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
1978 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
1979 [Steve Henson]
1980
1981 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
1982 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
1983 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
1984 support.
1985 [Steve Henson]
1986
1987 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
1988 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
1989 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
1990 [Steve Henson]
1991
1992 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
1993 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
1994 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
1995 will never use XTS mode.
1996 [Steve Henson]
1997
1998 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
1999 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
2000 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
2001 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
2002 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
2003 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
2004 [Steve Henson]
2005
2006 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
2007 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
2008 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
2009 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
2010 [Steve Henson]
2011
2012 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
2013 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
2014 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
2015 [Steve Henson]
2016
2017 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
2018 [Steve Henson]
2019
2020 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
2021 [Steve Henson]
2022
2023 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
2024 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
2025 [Steve Henson]
2026
2027 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
2028 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
2029 [Steve Henson]
2030
2031 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
2032 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
2033 [Steve Henson]
2034
2035 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
2036 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
2037 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
2038 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
2039 and rename any affected symbols.
2040 [Steve Henson]
2041
2042 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
2043 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
2044 [Steve Henson]
2045
2046 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
2047 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
2048 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
2049 [Steve Henson]
2050
2051 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2052 [Steve Henson]
2053
2054 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
2055 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
2056 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
2057 [Steve Henson]
2058
2059 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
2060 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
2061 [Steve Henson]
2062
2063 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
2064 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
2065 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
2066 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
2067 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
2068 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
2069 set before the key.
2070 [Steve Henson]
2071
2072 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
2073 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
2074 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
2075 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
2076 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
2077 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
2078 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
2079 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
2080 [Steve Henson]
2081
2082 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
2083 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
2084 [Steve Henson]
2085
2086 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
2087
2088 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2089 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2090
2091 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
2092 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
2093 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
2094 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
2095 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
2096 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
2097
2098 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
2099 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
2100 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
2101 security.
2102 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2103
2104 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
2105 parameters by name.
2106 [Steve Henson]
2107
2108 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
2109 Add CMAC pkey methods.
2110 [Steve Henson]
2111
2112 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
2113 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
2114 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
2115 [Steve Henson]
2116
2117 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
2118 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
2119 multi-process servers.
2120 [Steve Henson]
2121
2122 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
2123 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
2124 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
2125 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
2126 RAND_METHOD structure.
2127 [Steve Henson]
2128
2129 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
2130 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
2131 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
2132 whose return value is often ignored.
2133 [Steve Henson]
2134
2135 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
2136 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
2137 validated when establishing a connection.
2138 [Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>]

2140 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
2141
2142 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
2143
2144 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
2145 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
2146 AES-NI.
2147
2148 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
2149 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
2150 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
2151 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
2152 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
2153 bytes.
2154
2155 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
2156 (CVE-2016-2107)
2157 [Kurt Roeckx]
2158
2159 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
2160
2161 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
2162 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
2163 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
2164 corruption.
2165
2166 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
2167 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
2168 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
2169 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
2170 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
2171 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
2172
2173 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2174 (CVE-2016-2105)
2175 [Matt Caswell]
2176
2177 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
2178
2179 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
2180 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
2181 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
2182 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
2183 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
2184 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
2185 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
2186 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
2187 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
2188 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
2189 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
2190 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
2191 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
2192 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
2193 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
2194 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
2195
2196 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2197 (CVE-2016-2106)
2198 [Matt Caswell]
2199
2200 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2201
2202 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2203 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2204 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2205
2206 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2207 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2208 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2209 applications are not affected.
2210
2211 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
2212 (CVE-2016-2109)
2213 [Stephen Henson]
2214
2215 *) EBCDIC overread
2216
2217 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2218 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2219 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
2220
2221 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2222 (CVE-2016-2176)
2223 [Matt Caswell]
2224
2225 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2226 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2227 [Todd Short]
2228
2229 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
2230 default.
2231 [Kurt Roeckx]
2232
2233 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
2234 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
2235 [Kurt Roeckx]
2236
2237 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2238
2239 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2240 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2241 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2242 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2243
2244 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2245 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2246 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2247 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2248 will need to explicitly call either of:
2249
2250 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2251 or
2252 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2253
2254 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2255 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2256 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2257 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2258 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
2259 (CVE-2016-0800)
2260 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2261
2262 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2263
2264 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2265 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2266 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2267 considered rare.
2268
2269 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2270 libFuzzer.
2271 (CVE-2016-0705)
2272 [Stephen Henson]
2273
2274 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2275
2276 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2277
2278 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2279 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2280 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2281 is configured.
2282
2283 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2284 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2285 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2286 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2287 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2288 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2289 that of a valid user.
2290 (CVE-2016-0798)
2291 [Emilia Käsper]
2292
2293 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2294
2295 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2296 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2297 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2298 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2299 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2300 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2301 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2302 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2303 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2304 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2305 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2306
2307 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2308 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2309 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2310 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2311 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
2312
2313 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
2314 (CVE-2016-0797)
2315 [Matt Caswell]
2316
2317 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2318
2319 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2320 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2321 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2322
2323 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2324 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2325 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2326 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2327 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2328 also occur.
2329
2330 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2331 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2332 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2333 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2334 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2335 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2336 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2337 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2338 as command line arguments.
2339
2340 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2341 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2342 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
2343
2344 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
2345 (CVE-2016-0799)
2346 [Matt Caswell]
2347
2348 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2349
2350 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2351 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2352 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2353 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2354 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2355
2356 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2357 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
2358 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
2359 http://cachebleed.info.

2362
2363 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
2364 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
2365 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
2366 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
2367 [Emilia Käsper]
2368
2369 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2370 *) DH small subgroups
2371
2372 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2373 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2374 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2375 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2376 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2377 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2378 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2379 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2380 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2381 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2382
2383 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2384 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2385 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2386 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2387 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2388
2389 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2390 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2391 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2392 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2393
2394 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2395 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
2396
2397 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).

2399 [Matt Caswell]
2400
2401 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
2402
2403 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
2404 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
2405 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2406 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

2414
2415 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2416
2417 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2418 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2419 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2420 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2421 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2422 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2423 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2424 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2425 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2426 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2427 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2428 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2435
2436 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2437 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2438 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2439 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2440 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
2441 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
2442 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client

2476 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2477 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2478 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2479 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2480 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
2481
2482 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
2483 (Google/BoringSSL).

2485
2486 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
2487
2488 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
2489 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
2490 restored.
2491 [Matt Caswell]
2492
2493 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
2494
2495 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
2496
2497 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
2498 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
2499 field.
2500
2501 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
2502 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
2503 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
2504 client authentication enabled.
2505
2506 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
2507 (CVE-2015-1788)
2508 [Andy Polyakov]
2509
2510 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
2511
2512 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
2513 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
2514 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
2515 time string.
2516
2517 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
2518 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
2519 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
2520 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
2521 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
2522 callbacks.
2523
2524 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
2525 independently by Hanno Böck.
2526 (CVE-2015-1789)
2527 [Emilia Käsper]
2528
2529 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
2530
2531 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
2532 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
2533 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2534
2535 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
2536 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
2537 servers are not affected.
2538
2539 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2540 (CVE-2015-1790)
2541 [Emilia Käsper]
2542
2543 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
2544
2545 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
2546 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
2547 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
2548 the CMS code.
2549 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
2550 (CVE-2015-1792)
2551 [Stephen Henson]
2552
2553 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
2554
2555 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
2556 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
2557 a double free of the ticket data.
2558 (CVE-2015-1791)
2559 [Matt Caswell]
2560
2561 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
2562 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
2563 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
2564 [Emilia Kasper]
2565
2566 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
2567
2568 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
2569
2570 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
2571 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
2572 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
2573
2574 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
2575 University.
2576 (CVE-2015-0291)
2577 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
2578
2579 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
2580
2581 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
2582 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
2583 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
2584 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
2585 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
2586 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
2587 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
2588 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
2589
2590 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
2591 (CVE-2015-0290)
2592 [Matt Caswell]
2593
2594 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
2595
2596 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
2597 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
2598 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
2599 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
2600 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
2601 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
2602 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
2603 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
2604 server.
2605
2606 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
2607 (CVE-2015-0207)
2608 [Matt Caswell]
2609
2610 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
2611
2612 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
2613 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
2614 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
2615 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2616 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2617 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2618 (CVE-2015-0286)
2619 [Stephen Henson]
2620
2621 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
2622
2623 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2624 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2625 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
2626 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
2627 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2628 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2629 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2630
2631 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
2632 (CVE-2015-0208)
2633 [Stephen Henson]
2634
2635 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
2636
2637 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
2638 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
2639 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
2640
2641 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
2642 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
2643 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
2644 not affected.
2645 (CVE-2015-0287)
2646 [Stephen Henson]
2647
2648 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
2649
2650 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
2651 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
2652 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2653
2654 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
2655 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
2656 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
2657
2658 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2659 (CVE-2015-0289)
2660 [Emilia Käsper]
2661
2662 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
2663
2664 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
2665 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
2666 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
2667
2668 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
2669 (OpenSSL development team).
2670 (CVE-2015-0293)
2671 [Emilia Käsper]
2672
2673 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
2674
2675 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
2676 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
2677 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
2678 (CVE-2015-1787)
2679 [Matt Caswell]
2680
2681 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
2682
2683 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
2684 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
2685 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
2686 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
2687 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
2688 SSL_client_methodv23)
2689 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
2690 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
2691
2692 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
2693 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
2694 output may be predictable.
2695
2696 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
2697 succeed on an unpatched platform:
2698
2699 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
2700 (CVE-2015-0285)
2701 [Matt Caswell]
2702
2703 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
2704
2705 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
2706 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
2707 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
2708 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
2709 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
2710 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
2711
2712 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
2713 commit 517073cd4b.
2714 (CVE-2015-0209)
2715 [Matt Caswell]
2716
2717 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
2718
2719 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
2720 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
2721
2722 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
2723 (CVE-2015-0288)
2724 [Stephen Henson]
2725
2726 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
2727 [Kurt Roeckx]
2728
2729 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
2730
2731 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
2732 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
2733 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
2734 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
2735 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
2736 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
2737 [Andy Polyakov]
2738
2739 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
2740 (other platforms pending).
2741 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
2742
2743 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
2744 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
2745 [Rob Stradling]
2746
2747 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2748 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2749 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2750 [Bodo Moeller]
2751
2752 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
2753 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
2754 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
2755 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
2756 [Andy Polyakov]
2757
2758 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
2759 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
2760
2761 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
2762 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
2763 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
2764 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
2765 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
2766
2767 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
2768 [Andy Polyakov]
2769
2770 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
2771 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
2772 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
2773 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
2774
2775 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
2776 RSAZ.
2777 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
2778
2779 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
2780 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
2781 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
2782 for TLS encrypt.
2783
2784 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
2785 [Andy Polyakov]
2786
2787 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
2788 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
2789 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
2790 [Steve Henson]
2791
2792 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2793 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2794 [Steve Henson]
2795
2796 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2797 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2798 [Steve Henson]
2799
2800 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2801 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2802 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2803 algorithms and include tests cases.
2804 [Steve Henson]
2805
2806 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
2807 structure.
2808 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
2809
2810 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
2811 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
2812 [Steve Henson]
2813
2814 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
2815 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
2816 summary of the connection parameters.
2817 [Steve Henson]
2818
2819 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
2820 of connection parameters.
2821 [Steve Henson]
2822
2823 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
2824 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
2825
2826 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
2827 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
2828 [Steve Henson]
2829
2830 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
2831 [Steve Henson]
2832
2833 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
2834 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
2835 [Steve Henson]
2836
2837 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
2838 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
2839 [Steve Henson]
2840
2841 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
2842 certificates.
2843 [Steve Henson]
2844
2845 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
2846 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
2847 CRLs using the OCSP API.
2848 [Steve Henson]
2849
2850 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
2851 [Steve Henson]
2852
2853 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
2854 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
2855 [Steve Henson]
2856
2857 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
2858 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
2859 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
2860 tracing.
2861 [Steve Henson]
2862
2863 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
2864 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
2865 [Steve Henson]
2866
2867 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
2868 OID NID.
2869 [Steve Henson]
2870
2871 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
2872 client to OpenSSL.
2873 [Steve Henson]
2874
2875 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
2876 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
2877 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
2878 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
2879 [Steve Henson]
2880
2881 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
2882 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
2883 [Steve Henson]
2884
2885 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
2886 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
2887 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
2888 comparison.
2889 [Steve Henson]
2890
2891 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
2892 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
2893 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
2894 use the certificate.
2895 [Steve Henson]
2896
2897 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
2898 [Steve Henson]
2899
2900 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
2901 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
2902 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
2903 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
2904 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
2905 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
2906 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
2907
2908 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
2909 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
2910
2911 [Steve Henson]
2912
2913 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
2914 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
2915 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
2916 [Steve Henson]
2917
2918 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
2919 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
2920 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
2921 supported signature algorithms.
2922 [Steve Henson]
2923
2924 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
2925 [Steve Henson]
2926
2927 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
2928 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
2929 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
2930 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
2931 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
2932 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
2933 certificate and specify the whole chain.
2934 [Steve Henson]
2935
2936 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
2937 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
2938 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
2939 to have similar checks in it.
2940
2941 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
2942 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
2943 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
2944 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
2945 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
2946 [Steve Henson]
2947
2948 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
2949 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
2950 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
2951 shared signature algorithms.
2952 [Steve Henson]
2953
2954 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
2955 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
2956 to support them.
2957 [Steve Henson]
2958
2959 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
2960 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
2961 it couldn't be removed.
2962 [Steve Henson]
2963
2964 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
2965 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
2966 [Steve Henson]
2967
2968 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
2969 functions. Add manual page.
2970 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
2971
2972 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
2973 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
2974 a certificate.
2975 [Steve Henson]
2976
2977 *) Fix OCSP checking.
2978 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
2979
2980 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
2981 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
2982 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
2983 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
2984 utility) or reject.
2985 [Steve Henson]
2986
2987 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
2988 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
2989 [Steve Henson]
2990
2991 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
2992 platform support for Linux and Android.
2993 [Andy Polyakov]
2994
2995 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
2996 [Andy Polyakov]
2997
2998 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2999 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
3000 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
3001 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
3002 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
3003 [Steve Henson]
3004
3005 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
3006 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
3007 the new parameter format automatically.
3008 [Steve Henson]
3009
3010 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
3011 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
3012 [Steve Henson]
3013
3014 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
3015 [Steve Henson]
3016
3017 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
3018 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
3019 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
3020 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
3021 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
3022 [Steve Henson]
3023
3024 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
3025 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
3026 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
3027 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
3028 to set list of supported curves.
3029 [Steve Henson]
3030
3031 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
3032 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
3033 to print out received values.
3034 [Steve Henson]
3035
3036 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
3037 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
3038 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
3039 [Steve Henson]
3040
3041 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
3042 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
3043 [Steve Henson]
3044
3045 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
3046 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
3047 [Steve Henson]
3048
3049 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
3050 certificates.
3051 [Steve Henson]
3052
3053 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
3054 the certificate.
3055 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
3056 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
3057 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
3058
3059 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
3060
3061 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
3062 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
3063
3064 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
3065
3066 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
3067 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
3068 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
3069 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
3070 (CVE-2014-3571)
3071 [Steve Henson]
3072
3073 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
3074 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
3075 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
3076 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
3077 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
3078 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
3079 (CVE-2015-0206)
3080 [Matt Caswell]
3081
3082 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
3083 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
3084 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
3085 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
3086 (CVE-2014-3569)
3087 [Kurt Roeckx]
3088
3089 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
3090 ECDH ciphersuites.
3091
3092 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
3093 reporting this issue.
3094 (CVE-2014-3572)
3095 [Steve Henson]
3096
3097 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
3098 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
3099 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
3100 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
3101 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
3102 INRIA or reporting this issue.
3103 (CVE-2015-0204)
3104 [Steve Henson]
3105
3106 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
3107 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
3108 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
3109 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
3110 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
3111 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
3112 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
3113 this issue.
3114 (CVE-2015-0205)
3115 [Steve Henson]
3116
3117 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
3118 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
3119
3120 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
3121 and can vary with the CTX.
3122 [Adam Langley]
3123
3124 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
3125
3126 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
3127 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
3128 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
3129 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
3130 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
3131
3132 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
3133
3134 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
3135 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
3136
3137 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
3138
3139 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
3140 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
3141 errors for some broken certificates.
3142
3143 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
3144
3145 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
3146
3147 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
3148 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
3149
3150 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
3151 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
3152 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
3153 (negative or with leading zeroes).
3154
3155 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
3156 of the OpenSSL core team.
3157
3158 (CVE-2014-8275)
3159 [Steve Henson]
3160
3161 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
3162 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
3163 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
3164 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
3165 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
3166 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
3167 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
3168 the OpenSSL core team.
3169 (CVE-2014-3570)
3170 [Andy Polyakov]
3171
3172 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
3173 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
3174 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
3175 sanity and breaks all known clients.
3176 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
3177
3178 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
3179 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
3180 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
3181 [Emilia Käsper]
3182
3183 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
3184 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
3185 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3186 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
3187 announced in the initial ServerHello.
3188
3189 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
3190 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3191 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
3192 [Emilia Käsper]
3193
3194 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
3195
3196 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
3197
3198 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
3199 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
3200 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3201 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3202 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3203 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3204 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3205
3206 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3207 (CVE-2014-3513)
3208 [OpenSSL team]
3209
3210 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3211
3212 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3213 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3214 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3215 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3216 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3217 attack.
3218 (CVE-2014-3567)
3219 [Steve Henson]
3220
3221 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3222
3223 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3224 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3225 configured to send them.
3226 (CVE-2014-3568)
3227 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3228
3229 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3230 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3231 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3232 (CVE-2014-3566)
3233 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3234
3235 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3236
3237 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3238 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3239 DigestInfo structures.
3240
3241 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
3242
3243 [Steve Henson]
3244
3245 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3246
3247 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3248 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3249 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3250
3251 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3252 Group for discovering this issue.
3253 (CVE-2014-3512)
3254 [Steve Henson]
3255
3256 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3257 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3258 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3259 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3260 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3261
3262 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3263 researching this issue.
3264 (CVE-2014-3511)
3265 [David Benjamin]
3266
3267 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3268 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3269 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3270 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3271
3272 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3273 issue.
3274 (CVE-2014-3510)
3275 [Emilia Käsper]
3276
3277 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3278 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3279 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3280 (CVE-2014-3507)
3281 [Adam Langley]
3282
3283 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3284 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3285 Denial of Service attack.
3286 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3287 (CVE-2014-3506)
3288 [Adam Langley]
3289
3290 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3291 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3292 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3293 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3294 this issue.
3295 (CVE-2014-3505)
3296 [Adam Langley]
3297
3298 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3299 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3300 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3301
3302 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3303 issue.
3304 (CVE-2014-3509)
3305 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3306
3307 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3308 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3309 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3310 Denial of Service attack.
3311
3312 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3313 discovering and researching this issue.
3314 (CVE-2014-5139)
3315 [Steve Henson]
3316
3317 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3318 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3319 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3320 output to the attacker.
3321
3322 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3323 (CVE-2014-3508)
3324 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3325
3326 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3327 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3328 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3329 [Bodo Moeller]
3330
3331 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3332
3333 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3334 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3335 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3336
3337 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3338 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3339 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3340
3341 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3342 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3343 in a DoS attack.
3344
3345 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3346 (CVE-2014-0221)
3347 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3348
3349 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3350 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3351 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3352 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3353
3354 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3355 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3356
3357 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3358 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3359
3360 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3361 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3362 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3363
3364 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3365 compilation flags.
3366 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3367
3368 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3369 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3370 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3371
3372 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3373 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3374
3375 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3376
3377 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3378 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3379 server.
3380
3381 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3382 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3383 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3384 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3385
3386 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3387 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3388 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3389 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3390
3391 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3392 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3393 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3394
3395 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3396
3397 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3398 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3399 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3400 is at least 512 bytes long.
3401
3402 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
3403
3404 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3405
3406 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3407 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3408 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3409 (CVE-2013-4353)
3410
3411 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3412 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3413 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3414 [Steve Henson]
3415
3416 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3417 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3418 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3419 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3420 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3421 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3422 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3423
3424 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3425
3426 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3427 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3428 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3429
3430 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3431
3432 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3433
3434 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3435 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3436 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3437
3438 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3439 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3440 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
3441 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
3442 (CVE-2013-0169)
3443 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3444
3445 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3446 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3447 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
3448 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
3449 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
3450 (CVE-2012-2686)
3451 [Adam Langley]
3452
3453 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3454 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3455 [Steve Henson]
3456
3457 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3458 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3459
3460 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3461 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3462 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3463 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
3464 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
3465
3466 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3467 [Steve Henson]
3468
3469 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3470 if renegotiating.
3471 [Steve Henson]
3472
3473 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3474
3475 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3476 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3477
3478 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3479 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3480 (CVE-2012-2333)
3481 [Steve Henson]
3482
3483 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3484 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3485 [Steve Henson]
3486
3487 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3488 approved.
3489 [Steve Henson]
3490
3491 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
3492
3493 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
3494 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
3495 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
3496 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
3497 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
3498 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
3499 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
3500 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
3501 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
3502 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
3503 [Steve Henson]
3504
3505 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
3506 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
3507 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
3508 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
3509 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
3510 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
3511 client side.
3512 [Andy Polyakov]
3513
3514 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
3515
3516 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
3517 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
3518 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
3519
3520 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
3521 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
3522 (CVE-2012-2110)
3523 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
3524
3525 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
3526 [Adam Langley]
3527
3528 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
3529 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
3530
3531 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
3532 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
3533 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
3534 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
3535 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
3536 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
3537 Most broken servers should now work.
3538 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
3539 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
3540 [Steve Henson]
3541
3542 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
3543 [Andy Polyakov]
3544
3545 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
3546
3547 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
3548 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
3549 [Steve Henson]
3550
3551 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
3552 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
3553 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
3554 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
3555 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
3556 [Steve Henson]
3557
3558 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
3559 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
3560 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
3561 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
3562 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
3563 [Steve Henson]
3564
3565 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
3566 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3567
3568 *) Add support for SCTP.
3569 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3570
3571 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3572 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3573
3574 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
3575
3576 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
3577 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
3578 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
3579 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
3580 - s390x: z196 support;
3581 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
3582
3583 [Andy Polyakov]
3584
3585 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
3586 (removal of unnecessary code)
3587 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
3588
3589 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
3590 [Eric Rescorla]
3591
3592 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
3593 [Eric Rescorla]
3594
3595 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
3596 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
3597 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
3598 by Google.
3599 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3600
3601 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
3602 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
3603 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
3604 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
3605 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
3606
3607 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
3608 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
3609 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
3610
3611 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
3612 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
3613 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
3614
3615 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
3616 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
3617 implementations).
3618 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3619
3620 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
3621 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
3622 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
3623 [Steve Henson]
3624
3625 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
3626 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
3627 particular PSS.
3628 [Steve Henson]
3629
3630 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
3631 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
3632 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
3633 [Steve Henson]
3634
3635 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
3636 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
3637 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
3638 the appropriate parameters.
3639 [Steve Henson]
3640
3641 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
3642 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
3643 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
3644 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
3645 against a number of sample certificates.
3646 [Steve Henson]
3647
3648 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
3649 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
3650
3651 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
3652 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
3653
3654 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
3655 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
3656 parameters r, s.
3657 [Steve Henson]
3658
3659 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
3660 RFC3211.
3661 [Steve Henson]
3662
3663 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
3664 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
3665 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
3666 password based CMS).
3667 [Steve Henson]
3668
3669 *) Session-handling fixes:
3670 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
3671 but also support Session Tickets.
3672 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
3673 presented a ticket with an expired session.
3674 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
3675 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
3676 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
3677 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3678
3679 *) Fix PSK session representation.
3680 [Bodo Moeller]
3681
3682 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
3683
3684 This work was sponsored by Intel.
3685 [Andy Polyakov]
3686
3687 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
3688 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
3689 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
3690 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
3691 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
3692 [Steve Henson]
3693
3694 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
3695 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
3696 [Steve Henson]
3697
3698 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
3699 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
3700 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
3701 [Steve Henson]
3702
3703 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
3704 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
3705 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
3706 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
3707 [Steve Henson]
3708
3709 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
3710 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
3711 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
3712 [Steve Henson]
3713
3714 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
3715 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
3716
3717 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
3718 [Steve Henson]
3719
3720 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
3721 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
3722 [Steve Henson]
3723
3724 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
3725 [Steve Henson]
3726
3727 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
3728 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
3729 [Steve Henson]
3730
3731 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
3732 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
3733 [Steve Henson]
3734
3735 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
3736 [Steve Henson]
3737
3738 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
3739 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
3740 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
3741 [Steve Henson]
3742
3743 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3744 [Steve Henson]
3745
3746 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3747 [Steve Henson]
3748
3749 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
3750 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
3751 [Steve Henson]
3752
3753 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
3754 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
3755 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
3756 [Steve Henson]
3757
3758 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
3759 [Steve Henson]
3760
3761 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
3762 and enable MD5.
3763 [Steve Henson]
3764
3765 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
3766 FIPS modules versions.
3767 [Steve Henson]
3768
3769 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
3770 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
3771 until after the certificate request message is received.
3772 [Steve Henson]
3773
3774 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
3775 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
3776 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
3777 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
3778 [Steve Henson]
3779
3780 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
3781 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
3782 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
3783 support yet and no support for client certificates.
3784 [Steve Henson]
3785
3786 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
3787 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
3788 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
3789 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
3790 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
3791 and version checking.
3792 [Steve Henson]
3793
3794 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
3795 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
3796 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
3797 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
3798 [Steve Henson]
3799
3800 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
3801 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
3802 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
3803 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
3804 Ben Laurie]
3805
3806 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
3807 [Steve Henson]
3808
3809 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
3810 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
3811 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3812
3813 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
3814 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
3815 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
3816 [Steve Henson]
3817
3818 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
3819 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
3820
3821 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
3822 a few changes are required:
3823
3824 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
3825 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
3826 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
3827 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
3828 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
3829 [Steve Henson]
3830
3831 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
3832
3833 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
3834 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
3835 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
3836 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
3837 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3838 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
3839 an MMA defence is not necessary.
3840 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
3841 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
3842 [Steve Henson]
3843
3844 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
3845 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
3846 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
3847 [Steve Henson]
3848
3849 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
3850
3851 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
3852 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
3853 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
3854 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
3855 [Antonio Martin]
3856
3857 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
3858
3859 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
3860 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
3861 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
3862 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
3863 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
3864 paper describing this attack can be found at:
3865 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
3866 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3867 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3868 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
3869 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
3870 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
3871 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
3872
3873 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
3874 (CVE-2011-4576)
3875 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3876
3877 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
3878 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
3879 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
3880 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3881
3882 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
3883 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
3884
3885 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
3886 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
3887 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
3888 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3889
3890 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3891 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3892
3893 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
3894 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3895
3896 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
3897 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3898
3899 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
3900 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
3901 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3902
3903 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
3904 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
3905 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
3906
3907 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
3908 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
3909 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
3910 the last update always remained unused).
3911 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3912
3913 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
3914 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
3915
3916 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
3917
3918 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
3919 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
3920 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
3921
3922 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
3923 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
3924 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3925
3926 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
3927 [Bodo Moeller]
3928
3929 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
3930 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
3931 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
3932 [Steve Henson]
3933
3934 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
3935 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
3936
3937 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
3938
3939 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
3940
3941 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
3942
3943 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
3944 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3945
3946 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
3947 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
3948 ambiguous.
3949 [Steve Henson]
3950
3951 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
3952
3953 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
3954 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
3955 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
3956 [Steve Henson]
3957
3958 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
3959 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
3960 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
3961 [Ben Laurie]
3962
3963 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
3964
3965 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
3966 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
3967 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
3968 [Steve Henson]
3969
3970 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
3971 a DLL.
3972 [Steve Henson]
3973
3974 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
3975
3976 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
3977 (CVE-2010-1633)
3978 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
3979
3980 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
3981
3982 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
3983 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
3984 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
3985 [Steve Henson]
3986
3987 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
3988 [Steve Henson]
3989
3990 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
3991 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
3992 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
3993
3994 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
3995 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
3996 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
3997 [Steve Henson]
3998
3999 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
4000 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
4001 [Steve Henson]
4002
4003 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
4004 some responders need this.
4005 [Steve Henson]
4006
4007 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
4008 correctly.
4009 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4010
4011 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
4012 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
4013 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
4014 [Steve Henson]
4015
4016 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
4017 [Steve Henson]
4018
4019 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
4020 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
4021 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
4022 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
4023 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
4024 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
4025 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
4026 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
4027 [Steve Henson]
4028
4029 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
4030 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
4031 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
4032 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4033
4034 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
4035 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
4036
4037 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
4038 be used on C++.
4039 [Steve Henson]
4040
4041 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
4042 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
4043 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
4044 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
4045 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
4046 attempting to work them out.
4047 [Steve Henson]
4048
4049 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
4050 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
4051 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
4052 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
4053 [Steve Henson]
4054
4055 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
4056 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
4057 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
4058 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
4059 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
4060 [Steve Henson]
4061
4062 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
4063 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
4064 you can do:
4065
4066 openssl sha256 foo
4067
4068 as well as:
4069
4070 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
4071
4072 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
4073
4074 [Steve Henson]
4075
4076 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
4077 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4078
4079 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
4080 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
4081
4082 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
4083 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
4084 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
4085 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
4086 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
4087 [Steve Henson]
4088
4089 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
4090 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
4091 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
4092 [Steve Henson]
4093
4094 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
4095 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
4096 [Steve Henson]
4097
4098 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
4099 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
4100
4101 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
4102 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
4103 [Steve Henson]
4104
4105 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
4106 [Ben Laurie]
4107
4108 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
4109 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
4110 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
4111 CONF_VALUE.
4112 [Ben Laurie]
4113
4114 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
4115 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
4116 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
4117 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
4118 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
4119 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
4120 [Steve Henson]
4121
4122 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
4123 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
4124
4125 This work was sponsored by Google.
4126 [Steve Henson]
4127
4128 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
4129 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
4130 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
4131 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
4132 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
4133 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
4134 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
4135 default.
4136
4137 This work was sponsored by Google.
4138 [Steve Henson]
4139
4140 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
4141
4142 This work was sponsored by Google.
4143 [Steve Henson]
4144
4145 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
4146 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
4147 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4148 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
4149
4150 This work was sponsored by Google.
4151 [Steve Henson]
4152
4153 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
4154 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
4155 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
4156 CRL functionality in future.
4157
4158 This work was sponsored by Google.
4159 [Steve Henson]
4160
4161 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
4162
4163 This work was sponsored by Google.
4164 [Steve Henson]
4165
4166 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
4167 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
4168
4169 This work was sponsored by Google.
4170 [Steve Henson]
4171
4172 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
4173 and URI types are currently supported.
4174
4175 This work was sponsored by Google.
4176 [Steve Henson]
4177
4178 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
4179 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
4180 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
4181 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
4182 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
4183 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
4184 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
4185 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
4186
4187 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
4188 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
4189 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
4190
4191 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
4192 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
4193 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
4194 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
4195
4196 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
4197 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
4198 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
4199 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
4200 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4201 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4202 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4203 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4204 of &errno.)
4205 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4206
4207 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4208 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4209 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4210
4211 This work was sponsored by Google.
4212 [Steve Henson]
4213
4214 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4215 [Ben Laurie]
4216
4217 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4218 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4219 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4220 [Ben Laurie]
4221
4222 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4223 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4224 [Nick Mathewson]
4225
4226 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4227 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4228 [Ben Laurie]
4229
4230 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4231 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4232 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4233 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4234 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4235 content types and variants.
4236 [Steve Henson]
4237
4238 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4239 [Steve Henson]
4240
4241 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4242 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4243 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4244 files from the associated perl scripts.
4245 [Steve Henson]
4246
4247 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4248 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4249 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4250
4251 *) s390x assembler pack.
4252 [Andy Polyakov]
4253
4254 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4255 "family."
4256 [Andy Polyakov]
4257
4258 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4259 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4260 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4261 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4262 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4263 to use. For example, specify an option
4264
4265 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4266
4267 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4268 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4269 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4270 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4271 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4272 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4273
4274 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4275 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4276 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4277 return non-zero for success.
4278
4279 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4280 by using
4281
4282 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4283 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4284
4285 where
4286
4287 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4288 void *arg;
4289
4290 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4291 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4292 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4293 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4294 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4295 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4296 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4297 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4298 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4299
4300 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4301 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4302 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4303 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4304 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4305 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4306
4307 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4308 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4309 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4310 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4311 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4312 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4313
4314 [Bodo Moeller]
4315
4316 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4317 MAC.
4318
4319 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4320
4321 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4322 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4323 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4324 supported.
4325
4326 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4327 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4328 SSL_SESSION.
4329
4330 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4331 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4332 with no application modification.
4333
4334 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4335 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4336
4337 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4338 or server extensions to be examined.
4339
4340 This work was sponsored by Google.
4341 [Steve Henson]
4342
4343 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4344 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4345 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4346
4347 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4348 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4349 ciphersuite support.
4350 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4351
4352 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4353 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4354 to output in BER and PEM format.
4355 [Steve Henson]
4356
4357 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4358 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4359 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4360 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4361 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4362 [Steve Henson]
4363
4364 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4365 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4366 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4367 utility.
4368 [Steve Henson]
4369
4370 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4371 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4372 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4373 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4374 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4375 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4376 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4377 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4378 enabled again.
4379
4380 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4381 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4382 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4383 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4384
4385 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4386 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4387 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4388 the default order.
4389 [Bodo Moeller]
4390
4391 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4392 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4393 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4394 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4395 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4396 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4397 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4398 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4399 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4400
4401 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4402 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4403 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4404 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4405 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4406 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4407 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4408 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4409 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4410 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4411 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4412 kinds of kludges.
4413
4414 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4415 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4416 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4417
4418 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4419 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4420 "CAMELLIA256".
4421 [Bodo Moeller]
4422
4423 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4424 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4425 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4426 [Nils Larsch]
4427
4428 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4429 it yet and it is largely untested.
4430 [Steve Henson]
4431
4432 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4433 [Nils Larsch]
4434
4435 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4436 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4437 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4438 [Steve Henson]
4439
4440 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4441 [Andy Polyakov]
4442
4443 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4444 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4445 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4446 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4447 [Steve Henson]
4448
4449 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4450 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4451 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4452 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4453 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4454 [Steve Henson]
4455
4456 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4457 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4458 [Cryptocom]
4459
4460 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4461 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4462 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4463 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4464 [Steve Henson]
4465
4466 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4467 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4468 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4469 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4470 [Steve Henson]
4471
4472 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4473 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4474 [Steve Henson]
4475
4476 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4477 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4478 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4479 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4480 [Steve Henson]
4481
4482 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4483 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4484 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4485 [Steve Henson]
4486
4487 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4488 utility.
4489 [Steve Henson]
4490
4491 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
4492 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
4493 [Steve Henson]
4494
4495 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
4496 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
4497 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
4498 if necessary.
4499 [Steve Henson]
4500
4501 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
4502 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
4503 to free up any added signature OIDs.
4504 [Steve Henson]
4505
4506 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
4507 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
4508 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
4509 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
4510 [Steve Henson]
4511
4512 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
4513 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
4514 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
4515 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
4516 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
4517 the array representation useful in a more general context.
4518 [Douglas Stebila]
4519
4520 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
4521 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
4522 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
4523 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
4524 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
4525
4526 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
4527 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
4528 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
4529 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
4530 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
4531 protocol).
4532
4533 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
4534 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
4535 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
4536 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
4537
4538 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
4539 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
4540 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
4541 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
4542 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
4543
4544 aECDH - ECDH cert
4545 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
4546 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
4547
4548 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
4549 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
4550
4551 [Bodo Moeller]
4552
4553 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
4554 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
4555 [Steve Henson]
4556
4557 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
4558 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
4559 [Steve Henson]
4560
4561 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
4562 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
4563 functional reference processing.
4564 [Steve Henson]
4565
4566 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
4567 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
4568 process.
4569 [Steve Henson]
4570
4571 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
4572 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
4573 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
4574 [Steve Henson]
4575
4576 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
4577 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
4578 application to support multiple signers.
4579 [Steve Henson]
4580
4581 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
4582 digest MAC.
4583 [Steve Henson]
4584
4585 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
4586 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
4587 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
4588 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
4589 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
4590 [Steve Henson]
4591
4592 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
4593 new API.
4594 [Steve Henson]
4595
4596 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
4597 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
4598 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
4599 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
4600 a no op.
4601 [Steve Henson]
4602
4603 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
4604 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
4605 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
4606 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
4607 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
4608 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
4609 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
4610 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
4611 [Steve Henson]
4612
4613 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
4614 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
4615 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
4616 between digests and public key types.
4617 [Steve Henson]
4618
4619 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
4620 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
4621 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
4622 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
4623 [Steve Henson]
4624
4625 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
4626 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
4627 key ASN1 method.
4628 [Steve Henson]
4629
4630 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
4631 [Steve Henson]
4632
4633 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
4634 pkeyutl.
4635 [Steve Henson]
4636
4637 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
4638 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
4639 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
4640 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
4641 pkey, genpkey.
4642 [Steve Henson]
4643
4644 *) BeOS support.
4645 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4646
4647 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
4648 manual pages.
4649 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4650
4651 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
4652 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
4653 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
4654 functionality for RSA.
4655 [Steve Henson]
4656
4657 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
4658 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
4659 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
4660 [Steve Henson]
4661
4662 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
4663 key API, doesn't do much yet.
4664 [Steve Henson]
4665
4666 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
4667 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
4668 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
4669 [Steve Henson]
4670
4671 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
4672 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4673 [Douglas Stebila]
4674
4675 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
4676 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
4677 [Steve Henson]
4678
4679 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
4680 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
4681 type.
4682 [Steve Henson]
4683
4684 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
4685 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
4686 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
4687 structure.
4688 [Steve Henson]
4689
4690 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
4691 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
4692 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
4693 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
4694 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
4695 of public and private key structures.
4696 [Steve Henson]
4697
4698 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
4699 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4700 [Douglas Stebila]
4701
4702 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
4703 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
4704 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
4705
4706 New ciphersuites:
4707 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
4708 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
4709
4710 New functions:
4711 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
4712 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
4713 SSL_get_psk_identity
4714 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
4715
4716 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
4717
4718 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
4719 and response verification functionality.
4720 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
4721
4722 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4723 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4724 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4725 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4726 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4727 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4728 server_name extension.
4729
4730 New functions (subject to change):
4731
4732 SSL_get_servername()
4733 SSL_get_servername_type()
4734 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4735
4736 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4737
4738 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4739 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4740 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4741 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4742 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4743
4744 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4745
4746 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4747 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4748 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4749 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4750 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4751 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4752 option.
4753
4754 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
4755
4756 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
4757 [Andy Polyakov]
4758
4759 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
4760 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
4761 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
4762 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
4763 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
4764 [Andy Polyakov]
4765
4766 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
4767 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
4768 macro.
4769 [Bodo Moeller]
4770
4771 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
4772 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
4773 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
4774 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
4775 [Andy Polyakov]
4776
4777 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
4778 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
4779 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
4780 using the maximum available value.
4781 [Steve Henson]
4782
4783 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
4784 in addition to the text details.
4785 [Bodo Moeller]
4786
4787 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
4788 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
4789 handle several customised structures at all.
4790 [Steve Henson]
4791
4792 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
4793 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
4794 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
4795 [Steve Henson]
4796
4797 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
4798 [Steve Henson]
4799
4800 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
4801 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
4802 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
4803 [Steve Henson]
4804
4805 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
4806 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
4807 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
4808 [Nils Larsch]
4809
4810 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
4811 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
4812 all fields.
4813 [Steve Henson]
4814
4815 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
4816 [Steve Henson]
4817
4818 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
4819 [NTT]
4820
4821 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
4822
4823 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
4824 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
4825 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
4826 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
4827 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
4828 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
4829 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
4830 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
4831
4832 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
4833 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
4834 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
4835
4836 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
4837
4838 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
4839 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
4840
4841 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
4842 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
4843 [Bodo Moeller]
4844
4845 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
4846 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
4847 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
4848 [Steve Henson]
4849
4850 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
4851 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
4852 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
4853 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
4854 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
4855 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
4856 [Steve Henson]
4857
4858 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
4859 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
4860 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
4861 [Steve Henson]
4862
4863 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
4864 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
4865 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
4866 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
4867 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
4868 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
4869 CVE-2009-4355.
4870 [Steve Henson]
4871
4872 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
4873 change when encrypting or decrypting.
4874 [Bodo Moeller]
4875
4876 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
4877 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
4878 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
4879 [Steve Henson]
4880
4881 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
4882 [Steve Henson]
4883
4884 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
4885 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
4886 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
4887 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
4888 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
4889 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
4890 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
4891 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
4892 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
4893 [Steve Henson]
4894
4895 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
4896 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
4897 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
4898 [Steve Henson]
4899
4900 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
4901 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
4902 [Steve Henson]
4903
4904 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
4905 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
4906 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
4907 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
4908 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
4909 know what you are doing.
4910 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
4911
4912 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
4913 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
4914 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
4915 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
4916 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
4917 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
4918 the handshake.
4919 [Steve Henson]
4920
4921 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
4922 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
4923 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
4924 correctly.
4925 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4926
4927 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
4928 warnings in other configurations.
4929 [Steve Henson]
4930
4931 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
4932 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
4933 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
4934 systems need.
4935 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
4936
4937 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
4938 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
4939 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
4940
4941 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
4942 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
4943 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
4944 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
4945 [Steve Henson]
4946
4947 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
4948 and restored.
4949 [Steve Henson]
4950
4951 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
4952 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
4953 clash.
4954 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4955
4956 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
4957 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
4958 other than a simple chain.
4959 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
4960
4961 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
4962 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
4963 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
4964 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
4965 [Steve Henson]
4966
4967 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
4968 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
4969 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
4970 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
4971 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
4972 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
4973 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
4974 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
4975 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4976
4977 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
4978 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
4979 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
4980 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
4981 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
4982 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
4983 (CVE-2009-1377)
4984 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4985
4986 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
4987 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
4988 [Daniel Mentz]
4989
4990 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
4991 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
4992
4993 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
4994 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
4995
4996 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
4997
4998 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
4999 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
5000 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
5001 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
5002 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
5003 you're doing.
5004 [Ben Laurie]
5005
5006 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
5007
5008 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
5009 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
5010 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
5011 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
5012
5013 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
5014 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
5015 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
5016 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5017
5018 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
5019 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
5020 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
5021 [Steve Henson]
5022
5023 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
5024 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
5025 level.
5026 [Steve Henson]
5027
5028 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
5029 to handle some structures.
5030 [Steve Henson]
5031
5032 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
5033 for a '\n'
5034 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
5035
5036 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
5037 [Matthieu Herrb]
5038
5039 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
5040 [Steve Henson]
5041
5042 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
5043 [Steve Henson]
5044
5045 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
5046 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
5047 chosen compiler.
5048 [Ben Laurie]
5049
5050 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
5051
5052 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
5053 (CVE-2008-5077).
5054 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
5055
5056 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
5057 [Ben Laurie]
5058
5059 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
5060 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
5061 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
5062 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
5063
5064 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
5065 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
5066
5067 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
5068 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
5069 [Bodo Moeller]
5070
5071 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
5072 s_client and s_server.
5073 [Ben Laurie]
5074
5075 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
5076 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
5077
5078 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
5079 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
5080
5081 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
5082 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
5083 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
5084 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
5085 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
5086 [Bodo Moeller]
5087
5088 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
5089
5090 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
5091 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
5092 [PR #1679]
5093
5094 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
5095 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
5096 [Nagendra Modadugu]
5097
5098 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
5099 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
5100 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
5101 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
5102
5103 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
5104 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
5105
5106 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
5107
5108 *) Various precautionary measures:
5109
5110 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
5111
5112 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
5113 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
5114 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
5115
5116 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
5117 outside the expected range.
5118
5119 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
5120 builds.
5121
5122 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
5123
5124 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
5125 the load fails. Useful for distros.
5126 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
5127
5128 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
5129 [Steve Henson]
5130
5131 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
5132 [Huang Ying]
5133
5134 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
5135
5136 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5137 [Steve Henson]
5138
5139 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
5140 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
5141 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
5142
5143 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5144 [Steve Henson]
5145
5146 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
5147 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
5148 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
5149 files.
5150 [Steve Henson]
5151
5152 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
5153
5154 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
5155 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
5156 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
5157 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
5158
5159 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
5160 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
5161 [Joe Orton]
5162
5163 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
5164
5165 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
5166 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
5167 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
5168
5169 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
5170
5171 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
5172 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
5173 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
5174 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
5175 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5176
5177 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
5178 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
5179 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
5180 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
5181 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
5182 invalid read after the end of 'db').
5183 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5184
5185 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
5186
5187 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
5188 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
5189 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
5190 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
5191 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
5192
5193 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
5194 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
5195
5196 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
5197 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
5198 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
5199 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
5200 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5201
5202 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5203
5204 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5205 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5206 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5207 sets may exist with different names.
5208 [Steve Henson]
5209
5210 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5211 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5212 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5213 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5214 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5215 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5216 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5217 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5218 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5219 implementation.
5220 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5221
5222 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5223 implementation in the following ways:
5224
5225 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5226 hard coded.
5227
5228 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5229 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5230 ignored for embedded content.
5231
5232 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5233 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5234 [Steve Henson]
5235
5236 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5237 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5238 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5239 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5240
5241 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5242 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5243 [Steve Henson]
5244
5245 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5246 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5247 [Steve Henson]
5248
5249 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5250 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5251 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5252 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5253 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5254 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5255 data.
5256 [Steve Henson]
5257
5258 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5259 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5260 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5261
5262 *) Netware support:
5263
5264 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5265 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5266 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5267 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5268 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5269 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5270 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5271 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5272 platform
5273 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5274 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5275 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5276 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5277 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5278 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5279 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5280
5281 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5282 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5283 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5284 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5285 to s_client and s_server.
5286 [Steve Henson]
5287
5288 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5289
5290 *) Fix various bugs:
5291 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5292 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5293 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5294 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5295 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5296
5297 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5298
5299 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5300 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5301 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5302 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5303 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5304 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5305 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5306 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5307 [Andy Polyakov]
5308
5309 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5310 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5311 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5312 Steve Henson]
5313
5314 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5315 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5316 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5317 supported.
5318
5319 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5320 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5321 SSL_SESSION.
5322
5323 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5324 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5325 with no application modification.
5326
5327 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5328 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5329
5330 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5331 or server extensions to be examined.
5332
5333 This work was sponsored by Google.
5334 [Steve Henson]
5335
5336 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5337 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5338 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5339 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5340 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5341 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5342 server_name extension.
5343
5344 New functions (subject to change):
5345
5346 SSL_get_servername()
5347 SSL_get_servername_type()
5348 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5349
5350 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5351
5352 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5353 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5354 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5355 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5356 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5357
5358 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5359
5360 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5361 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5362 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5363 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5364 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5365 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5366 option.
5367
5368 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5369
5370 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5371 [Steve Henson]
5372
5373 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5374 [Andy Polyakov]
5375
5376 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5377 (which previously caused an internal error).
5378 [Bodo Moeller]
5379
5380 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5381 [Ben Laurie]
5382
5383 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5384 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5385
5386 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5387 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5388 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5389
5390 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5391 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5392 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5393 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5394
5395 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5396 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5397 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5398 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5399
5400 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5401 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5402 information. For detailed background information, see
5403 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5404 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5405 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5406 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5407 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5408 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5409 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5410 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5411 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5412 remove a conditional branch.
5413
5414 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5415 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5416 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5417 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5418 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5419 remains as a deprecated alias.
5420
5421 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5422 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5423 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5424 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5425
5426 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5427 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5428 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5429 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5430 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5431 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5432 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5433 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5434
5435 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5436
5437 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5438 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5439 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5440 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5441 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5442 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5443 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5444 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5445 in a different context.
5446 [Bodo Moeller]
5447
5448 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5449 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5450 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5451 [Bodo Moeller]
5452
5453 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5454 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5455 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5456
5457 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5458
5459 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5460 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5461 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5462 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5463 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5464 [Victor Duchovni]
5465
5466 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5467 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5468 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5469 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5470 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5471 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5472 [Bodo Moeller]
5473
5474 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5475 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5476 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5477 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5478 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5479 [Bodo Moeller]
5480
5481 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5482 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5483
5484 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5485 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5486 Improve header file function name parsing.
5487 [Steve Henson]
5488
5489 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5490 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
5491 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
5492
5493 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
5494
5495 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5496 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5497 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5498
5499 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5500 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5501
5502 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5503 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5504
5505 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5506 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5507 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5508
5509 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
5510 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
5511 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
5512 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
5513 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
5514 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
5515 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
5516 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
5517 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
5518
5519 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
5520 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
5521 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
5522 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
5523 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
5524
5525 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
5526 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
5527 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
5528 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
5529 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
5530 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
5531 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
5532 multiple values to extend the available space.
5533
5534 [Bodo Moeller]
5535
5536 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
5537
5538 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5539 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5540
5541 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
5542 [Ben Laurie]
5543
5544 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5545 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5546 undesirable limitations.
5547 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5548
5549 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
5550 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
5551 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
5552 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
5553 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
5554 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
5555 to avoid potential handshake problems.
5556 [Bodo Moeller]
5557
5558 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5559
5560 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5561 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5562 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5563
5564 The latter two were purportedly from
5565 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5566 appear there.
5567
5568 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
5569 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5570 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5571 [Bodo Moeller]
5572
5573 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5574 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5575 [Bodo Moeller]
5576
5577 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
5578 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
5579 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
5580 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
5581
5582 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5583 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5584 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
5585 [NTT]
5586
5587 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
5588 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
5589 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
5590 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
5591 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
5592 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
5593 [Steve Henson]
5594
5595 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
5596
5597 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
5598 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
5599 [Steve Henson]
5600
5601 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
5602 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
5603
5604 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5605 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
5606 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
5607 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
5608 [Douglas Stebila]
5609
5610 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
5611 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
5612 [Steve Henson]
5613
5614 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
5615 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
5616 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
5617 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
5618 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
5619 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
5620 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
5621 can't be loaded.
5622 [Steve Henson]
5623
5624 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
5625 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
5626 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
5627 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
5628 [Steve Henson]
5629
5630 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
5631 under VC++ build system.
5632 [Steve Henson]
5633
5634 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
5635 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
5636 [Richard Levitte]
5637
5638 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
5639
5640 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5641 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5642 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5643 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5644 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5645
5646 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5647 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5648 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5649
5650 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
5651 [Steve Henson]
5652
5653 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
5654 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5655 [Nils Larsch]
5656
5657 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
5658 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
5659
5660 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
5661 [Nick Mathewson]
5662
5663 *) Extended Windows CE support.
5664 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
5665
5666 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
5667 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5668 [Steve Henson]
5669
5670 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
5671 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
5672 smime utility.
5673 [Steve Henson]
5674
5675 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
5676
5677 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5678 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5679
5680 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
5681 [Richard Levitte]
5682
5683 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
5684 key into the same file any more.
5685 [Richard Levitte]
5686
5687 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
5688 [Andy Polyakov]
5689
5690 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
5691 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
5692
5693 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
5694 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
5695 [Richard Levitte]
5696
5697 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
5698 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
5699 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
5700 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
5701 this only applies when building 'shared'.
5702 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
5703
5704 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
5705 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
5706 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
5707 [Steve Henson]
5708
5709 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
5710 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
5711 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
5712 - add new function for parameter creation
5713 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
5714 BN_BLINDING parameters
5715 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
5716 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
5717 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
5718 threads.
5719 [Nils Larsch]
5720
5721 *) Add support for DTLS.
5722 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
5723
5724 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
5725 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
5726 [Walter Goulet]
5727
5728 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
5729 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
5730 [Nils Larsch]
5731
5732 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
5733 the apps/openssl applications.
5734 [Nils Larsch]
5735
5736 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
5737 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
5738 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
5739 [Ben Laurie]
5740
5741 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
5742 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
5743
5744 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
5745 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
5746
5747 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
5748 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
5749 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
5750 avoid this algorithm.)
5751
5752 [Bodo Moeller]
5753
5754 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
5755 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
5756 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
5757 [Richard Levitte]
5758
5759 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
5760 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
5761 [Andy Polyakov]
5762
5763 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
5764 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
5765 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
5766 pod file:
5767
5768 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
5769
5770 The blank line is mandatory.
5771
5772 [Steve Henson]
5773
5774 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
5775 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
5776 sources.
5777 [Steve Henson]
5778
5779 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
5780 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
5781
5782 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
5783 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
5784 to support policy checking and print out.
5785 [Steve Henson]
5786
5787 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
5788 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
5789 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
5790 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
5791
5792 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
5793 [Geoff Thorpe]
5794
5795 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
5796 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
5797
5798 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
5799 implementation contributed by IBM.
5800 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
5801
5802 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
5803 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
5804 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
5805 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
5806
5807 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
5808 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
5809
5810 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
5811 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
5812 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
5813 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
5814 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
5815 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
5816 [Steve Henson]
5817
5818 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
5819 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
5820 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
5821 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
5822 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
5823 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
5824 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
5825 [Geoff Thorpe]
5826
5827 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
5828 [Steve Henson]
5829
5830 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
5831 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
5832 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
5833 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
5834 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
5835 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
5836 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
5837 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
5838 [Steve Henson]
5839
5840 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
5841 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
5842 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
5843 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
5844 [Steve Henson]
5845
5846 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
5847 syntax:
5848
5849 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
5850 [Steve Henson]
5851
5852 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
5853 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
5854 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
5855 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
5856 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
5857 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
5858 BN_CTX's "bundling".
5859 [Geoff Thorpe]
5860
5861 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
5862 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
5863 [Geoff Thorpe]
5864
5865 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
5866 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
5867 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
5868 [Steve Henson]
5869
5870 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
5871 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
5872 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
5873 below).
5874 [Geoff Thorpe]
5875
5876 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
5877 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
5878 [Richard Levitte]
5879
5880 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
5881 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
5882 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
5883 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
5884 [Geoff Thorpe]
5885
5886 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
5887 initialised value as BN_new().
5888 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
5889
5890 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
5891 [Steve Henson]
5892
5893 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
5894 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
5895 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
5896 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
5897 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
5898 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
5899 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
5900 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
5901 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
5902 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
5903 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
5904 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
5905 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
5906 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
5907 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
5908
5909 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
5910 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
5911 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
5912 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
5913 [Geoff Thorpe]
5914
5915 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
5916 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
5917 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
5918 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
5919 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
5920 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
5921 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
5922 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
5923 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
5924 [Geoff Thorpe]
5925
5926 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
5927 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
5928 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
5929 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
5930 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
5931 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
5932 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
5933 [Geoff Thorpe]
5934
5935 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
5936 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
5937 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
5938 these have been updated also.
5939 [Geoff Thorpe]
5940
5941 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
5942 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
5943 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
5944 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
5945 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
5946 functions.
5947 [Steve Henson]
5948
5949 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
5950 structure of type "other".
5951 [Steve Henson]
5952
5953 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
5954 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
5955 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
5956 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
5957 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
5958 situation in the script.
5959 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5960
5961 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5962 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
5963 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
5964 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
5965 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
5966 used as premaster secret.
5967 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5968
5969 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
5970 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
5971 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5972
5973 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
5974 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
5975
5976 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
5977 control of the error stack.
5978 [Richard Levitte]
5979
5980 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
5981 [Richard Levitte]
5982
5983 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
5984 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
5985 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
5986 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
5987 [Richard Levitte]
5988
5989 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
5990 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
5991 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
5992 [Richard Levitte]
5993
5994 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
5995 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
5996 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
5997 a memory area.
5998 [Richard Levitte]
5999
6000 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
6001 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
6002 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
6003 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
6004 [Richard Levitte]
6005
6006 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
6007 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
6008 the following flags are defined:
6009
6010 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
6011 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6012 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
6013 number.
6014
6015 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
6016 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6017 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
6018 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
6019 returns zero.
6020 [Richard Levitte]
6021
6022 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
6023 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
6024 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
6025 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
6026 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
6027 [Richard Levitte]
6028
6029 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
6030 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
6031 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
6032 [Richard Levitte]
6033
6034 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6035 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6036 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6037 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6038 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6039 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6040 [Richard Levitte]
6041
6042 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
6043 req and dirName.
6044 [Steve Henson]
6045
6046 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
6047 [Steve Henson]
6048
6049 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
6050 [Steve Henson]
6051
6052 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
6053 [Steve Henson]
6054
6055 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
6056 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
6057 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
6058 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
6059 default implementation more easily.
6060 [Geoff Thorpe]
6061
6062 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
6063 in config files.
6064 [Steve Henson]
6065
6066 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
6067 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
6068 [Richard Levitte]
6069
6070 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
6071 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
6072 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
6073 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
6074
6075 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
6076 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
6077 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
6078 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
6079 [Steve Henson]
6080
6081 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
6082 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
6083 to do it.
6084 [Richard Levitte]
6085
6086 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
6087 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
6088 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
6089 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
6090 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
6091 scalar * generator).
6092 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
6093
6094 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
6095 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
6096 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
6097 correctly.
6098 [Steve Henson]
6099
6100 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
6101 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
6102 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
6103 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
6104 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
6105 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
6106 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
6107 linker additions, eg;
6108 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
6109 [Geoff Thorpe]
6110
6111 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
6112 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
6113 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
6114 [Geoff Thorpe]
6115
6116 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6117 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6118 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
6119 via PR#459)
6120 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6121
6122 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
6123 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
6124 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
6125 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
6126 [Geoff Thorpe]
6127
6128 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
6129 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
6130 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
6131 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
6132 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
6133 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
6134 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
6135 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
6136 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
6137 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
6138
6139 Example for using the new callback interface:
6140
6141 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
6142 void *my_arg = ...;
6143 BN_GENCB my_cb;
6144
6145 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
6146
6147 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
6148 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
6149 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
6150 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
6151 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
6152 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
6153 */
6154
6155 [Geoff Thorpe]
6156
6157 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
6158 available to TLS with the number defined in
6159 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
6160 [Richard Levitte]
6161
6162 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
6163 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
6164
6165 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
6166 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6167 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6168 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
6169
6170 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
6171 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
6172
6173 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
6174 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
6175 well.
6176 [Richard Levitte]
6177
6178 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
6179 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
6180 [Richard Levitte]
6181
6182 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
6183 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
6184 and a macro that behave like
6185 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
6186
6187 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
6188 [Nils Larsch]
6189
6190 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
6191 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
6192 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
6193 if applicable.
6194 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6195
6196 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
6197 [Bodo Moeller]
6198
6199 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
6200 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6201 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6202 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6203 directory engines/.
6204 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6205 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6206 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6207 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6208 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6209 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6210 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6211 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6212
6213 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6214 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6215 [Richard Levitte]
6216
6217 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6218 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6219
6220 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6221 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6222 files while avoiding the low level API.
6223
6224 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6225 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6226 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6227 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6228
6229 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6230 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6231 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6232 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6233 instead of the low level API.
6234 [Steve Henson]
6235
6236 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6237 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6238 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6239 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6240 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6241 PKCS#7 code.
6242
6243 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6244 down to the template encoder.
6245 [Steve Henson]
6246
6247 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6248 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6249 [Bodo Moeller]
6250
6251 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6252 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6253 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6254 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6255
6256 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6257 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6258
6259 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6260 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6261
6262 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6263 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6264 [Bodo Moeller]
6265
6266 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6267 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6268 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6269 [Bodo Moeller]
6270
6271 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6272 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6273
6274 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6275 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6276
6277 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6278 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6279 New EC_METHOD:
6280
6281 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6282
6283 New API functions:
6284
6285 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6286 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6287 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6288 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6289 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6290 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6291
6292 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6293 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6294 enable it).
6295
6296 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6297 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6298 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6299 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6300 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6301 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6302 various internal method names.)
6303
6304 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6305 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6306
6307 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6308 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6309
6310 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6311 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6312
6313 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6314 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6315 methods are undefined.
6316
6317 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6318 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6319
6320 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6321 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6322 length of the modulus.
6323
6324 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6325 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6326
6327 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6328 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6329
6330 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6331 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6332
6333 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6334 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6335 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6336
6337 BN_GF2m_add
6338 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
6339 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
6340 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
6341 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
6342 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
6343 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
6344 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
6345 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
6346 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
6347
6348 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6349 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6350
6351 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6352 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6353 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6354 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6355 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6356 where
6357 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6358 This applies to the following functions:
6359
6360 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6361 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6362 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6363 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6364 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6365 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6366 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6367 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6368 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6369 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6370
6371 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6372
6373 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6374 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6375
6376 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6377
6378 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6379 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6380 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6381 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6382 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6383
6384 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6385 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6386
6387 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6388 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6389 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6390
6391 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6392 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6393
6394 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6395 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6396 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6397 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6398 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6399
6400 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6401 functions
6402 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6403 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6404 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6405 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6406 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6407 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6408 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6409 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6410 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6411 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6412 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6413 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6414
6415 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6416 functions
6417 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6418 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6419 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6420 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6421 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6422
6423 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6424 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6425 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6426 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6427
6428 *) Add functions
6429 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6430 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6431 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6432 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6433 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6434 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6435 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6436
6437 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6438 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6439 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6440 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6441 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6442 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6443 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6444 adding different types of curves.
6445 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6446
6447 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6448 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6449 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6450 [Bodo Moeller]
6451
6452 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6453 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6454
6455 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6456 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6457 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6458 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6459
6460 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6461
6462 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6463 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6464
6465 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6466 library. Most notably,
6467 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6468 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6469 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6470 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6471 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6472 extracted before the specific public key;
6473 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6474 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6475
6476 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6477 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6478 function
6479 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6480 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6481 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6482 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6483 accessed via
6484 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6485 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6486 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6487
6488 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6489 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6490 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6491 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6492 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6493 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6494 differing sizes.
6495 [Richard Levitte]
6496
6497 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
6498
6499 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
6500 sensitive data.
6501 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
6502
6503 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
6504 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
6505 authentication-only ciphersuites.
6506 [Bodo Moeller]
6507
6508 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
6509 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
6510 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
6511 [Victor Duchovni]
6512
6513 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
6514 [Steve Henson]
6515
6516 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
6517 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
6518 [Steve Henson]
6519
6520 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
6521 run algorithm test programs.
6522 [Steve Henson]
6523
6524 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
6525 [Steve Henson]
6526
6527 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
6528 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
6529 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
6530 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
6531 message has informed the client about his choice.)
6532 [Bodo Moeller]
6533
6534 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
6535 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
6536 [Steve Henson]
6537
6538 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
6539
6540 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6541 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6542 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6543
6544 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
6545 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
6546
6547 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
6548 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6549
6550 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
6551 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
6552 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6553
6554 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
6555 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
6556 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
6557 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
6558 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
6559 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
6560 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
6561 [Bodo Moeller]
6562
6563 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
6564
6565 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
6566 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
6567
6568 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6569 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6570 undesirable limitations.
6571 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6572
6573 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6574
6575 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6576 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6577 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6578
6579 The latter two were purportedly from
6580 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6581 appear there.
6582
6583 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6584 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6585 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6586 [Bodo Moeller]
6587
6588 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6589 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6590 [Bodo Moeller]
6591
6592 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
6593
6594 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
6595 module in FIPS mode.
6596 [Steve Henson]
6597
6598 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
6599 [Steve Henson]
6600
6601 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
6602 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
6603 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
6604 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
6605 [Steve Henson]
6606
6607 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
6608
6609 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
6610 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
6611 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
6612 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
6613 the difference induced by this change.
6614 [Andy Polyakov]
6615
6616 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
6617
6618 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6619 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6620 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6621 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6622 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6623
6624 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6625 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6626 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6627
6628 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
6629 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
6630 [Steve Henson]
6631
6632 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
6633 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
6634 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
6635 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
6636 biased k.)
6637 [Bodo Moeller]
6638
6639 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
6640 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
6641 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
6642 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
6643 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
6644
6645 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
6646 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
6647 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
6648 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
6649 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
6650 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
6651
6652 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
6653
6654 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
6655 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
6656 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
6657 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
6658 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
6659 [Bodo Moeller]
6660
6661 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
6662 clients need.
6663 [Steve Henson]
6664
6665 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
6666 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
6667 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
6668 [Steve Henson]
6669
6670 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
6671 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
6672 structures constant.
6673 [Steve Henson]
6674
6675 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
6676
6677 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6678 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6679
6680 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
6681 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
6682 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
6683 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
6684 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
6685 some needed definitions.
6686 [Steve Henson]
6687
6688 *) Undo Cygwin change.
6689 [Ulf Möller]
6690
6691 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
6692 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
6693 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
6694 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
6695 [Richard Levitte]
6696
6697 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
6698
6699 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
6700 server and client random values. Previously
6701 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
6702 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
6703
6704 This change has negligible security impact because:
6705
6706 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
6707 data.
6708
6709 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
6710 handshake.
6711
6712 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
6713 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
6714 values.
6715
6716 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
6717 to our attention.
6718
6719 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
6720
6721 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
6722 [Ulf Möller]
6723
6724 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
6725 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
6726 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
6727
6728 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
6729 [Steve Henson]
6730
6731 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
6732 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
6733 [Andy Polyakov]
6734
6735 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
6736 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
6737 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
6738
6739 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
6740 [Steve Henson]
6741
6742 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
6743 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
6744 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
6745 certificates.
6746 [Steve Henson]
6747
6748 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
6749 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
6750 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
6751 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
6752
6753 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
6754 has chosen to ignore this fault)
6755 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
6756 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
6757 been given)
6758 [Richard Levitte]
6759
6760 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
6761
6762 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
6763 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
6764 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
6765 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
6766 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
6767 [Steve Henson]
6768
6769 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
6770 [Steve Henson]
6771
6772 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
6773 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
6774
6775 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
6776 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
6777 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
6778 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
6779 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
6780 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
6781 rather than being initialized to 1.
6782 [Steve Henson]
6783
6784 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
6785
6786 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6787 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6788 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6789
6790 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
6791 (CVE-2004-0112)
6792 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6793
6794 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6795 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6796 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6797 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6798 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6799 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6800 [Richard Levitte]
6801
6802 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
6803 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
6804 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
6805 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
6806 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
6807 for these cases.
6808 [Steve Henson]
6809
6810 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
6811 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
6812 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
6813 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
6814 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
6815 [Steve Henson]
6816
6817 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
6818 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
6819 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
6820 < 0.9.7.
6821 [Steve Henson]
6822
6823 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
6824 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6825
6826 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
6827 [Steve Henson]
6828
6829 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
6830
6831 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6832
6833 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6834 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6835
6836 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
6837
6838 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6839 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6840
6841 [Steve Henson]
6842
6843 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
6844 exiting on the first error in a request.
6845 [Steve Henson]
6846
6847 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6848 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6849 specifications.
6850 [Steve Henson]
6851
6852 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6853 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6854 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6855 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6856
6857 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6858 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6859 [Richard Levitte]
6860
6861 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
6862 blocks during encryption.
6863 [Richard Levitte]
6864
6865 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
6866 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
6867 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
6868 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
6869 certain size.
6870 [Steve Henson]
6871
6872 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
6873 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
6874 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
6875 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
6876 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
6877 parser.
6878 [Steve Henson]
6879
6880 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
6881
6882 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6883 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6884 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6885 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6886 [Bodo Moeller]
6887
6888 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6889 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6890 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6891 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6892 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6893
6894 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6895 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6896 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6897 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6898 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6899 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6900 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6901 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6902 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6903 [Bodo Moeller]
6904
6905 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
6906 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
6907 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
6908 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
6909 [Geoff Thorpe]
6910
6911 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
6912 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
6913 [Ulf Moeller]
6914
6915 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
6916
6917 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6918 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
6919 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6920 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6921 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6922
6923 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6924 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6925 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6926
6927 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
6928 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
6929 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
6930 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
6931 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
6932
6933 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
6934 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
6935 used by default when no-err is given.
6936 [Richard Levitte]
6937
6938 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
6939 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
6940
6941 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
6942 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
6943 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
6944 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
6945 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
6946
6947 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
6948 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
6949 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
6950 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
6951
6952 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
6953
6954 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
6955
6956 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
6957
6958 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
6959 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
6960 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
6961 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
6962 root is omitted).
6963 [Steve Henson]
6964
6965 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
6966 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
6967
6968 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
6969 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
6970 [Steve Henson]
6971
6972 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6973 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6974 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
6975 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
6976 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6977
6978 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
6979 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
6980 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
6981 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
6982 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
6983 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
6984 followup to PR #377.
6985 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6986
6987 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
6988 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
6989 [Andy Polyakov]
6990
6991 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
6992 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
6993 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
6994 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
6995
6996 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
6997
6998 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
6999 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
7000
7001 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
7002 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
7003 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
7004 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
7005 client and server.
7006 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7007 PR #377.
7008 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7009
7010 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
7011 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
7012 removed entirely.
7013 [Richard Levitte]
7014
7015 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
7016 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
7017 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
7018 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
7019 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
7020 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
7021 of libcrypto.
7022 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
7023 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
7024 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
7025 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
7026 have to be made anyway).
7027 [Richard Levitte]
7028
7029 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
7030 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
7031 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
7032 [Steve Henson]
7033
7034 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
7035 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
7036 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
7037 [Richard Levitte]
7038
7039 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
7040 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
7041 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7042
7043 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
7044 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
7045 edit numbers of the version.
7046 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7047
7048 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
7049 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
7050 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
7051
7052 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
7053 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7054
7055 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7056 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7057 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7058
7059 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
7060 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7061
7062 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
7063 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7064
7065 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
7066 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7067
7068 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
7069 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7070
7071 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
7072 overflows.
7073 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7074
7075 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
7076 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
7077 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7078
7079 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
7080 representations in a platform independent manner.
7081 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7082
7083 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7084 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7085 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7086
7087 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
7088 indents.
7089 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7090
7091 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
7092 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7093
7094 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
7095 full. Fixed.
7096 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7097
7098 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
7099 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
7100 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7101
7102 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
7103 unconditionally).
7104 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7105
7106 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
7107 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7108
7109 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
7110 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7111
7112 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
7113 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7114
7115 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
7116 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7117
7118 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
7119 CBCParameter.
7120 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7121
7122 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
7123 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7124
7125 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
7126 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7127
7128 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
7129 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
7130 exploitable.
7131 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7132
7133 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
7134 the 0.9.6 release series:
7135
7136 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7137 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
7138 (CVE-2002-0657)
7139 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7140
7141 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
7142 [Richard Levitte]
7143
7144 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
7145 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
7146
7147 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
7148 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
7149
7150 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
7151 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
7152 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
7153 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
7154
7155 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
7156 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
7157 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
7158
7159 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
7160 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
7161 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
7162 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7163
7164 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
7165 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
7166 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
7167 some local tweaks:
7168
7169 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
7170 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
7171 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
7172 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7173 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7174 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
7175 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
7176 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
7177 done
7178
7179 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
7180 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
7181 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
7182 [Richard Levitte]
7183
7184 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
7185 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
7186 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
7187 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
7188 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
7189
7190 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
7191 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
7192
7193 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
7194 error in AES-CFB decryption.
7195 [Richard Levitte]
7196
7197 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
7198 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
7199 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
7200 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7201 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7202 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7203 [Steve Henson]
7204
7205 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7206 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7207 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7208 [Steve Henson]
7209
7210 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7211 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7212 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7213
7214 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7215 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7216 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7217 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7218 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7219 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7220 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7221 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7222
7223 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7224 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7225 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7226 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7227 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7228 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7229 [Steve Henson]
7230
7231 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7232 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7233 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7234 declaration has been changed from
7235 int (*cb)()
7236 into
7237 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7238 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7239 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7240 has been changed into
7241 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7242
7243 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7244 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
7245 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
7246
7247 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7248 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7249
7250 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7251 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7252 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7253 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7254 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7255 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7256 always load it have also been added.
7257 [Steve Henson]
7258
7259 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7260 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7261 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7262
7263 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7264
7265 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7266 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7267 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7268
7269 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7270 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7271 command line option can be used to specify an
7272 alternative file.
7273 [Steve Henson]
7274
7275 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7276 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7277 [Steve Henson]
7278
7279 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7280 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7281 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7282 [Steve Henson]
7283
7284 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7285 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7286 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7287 to work with the new engine framework.
7288 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7289
7290 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7291 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7292 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7293 to work with the new engine framework.
7294 [Richard Levitte]
7295
7296 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7297 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7298 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7299
7300 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7301 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7302
7303 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7304 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7305 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7306 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7307 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7308 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7309
7310 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7311 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7312
7313 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7314 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7315
7316 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7317 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7318 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7319 [Ben Laurie]
7320
7321 *) Add new functions
7322 ERR_peek_last_error
7323 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7324 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7325 These are similar to
7326 ERR_peek_error
7327 ERR_peek_error_line
7328 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7329 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7330 still in the error queue.
7331 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7332
7333 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7334 like:
7335 default_algorithms = ALL
7336 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7337 [Steve Henson]
7338
7339 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7340 [Steve Henson]
7341
7342 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7343 [Steve Henson]
7344
7345 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7346 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7347 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7348 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7349
7350 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7351 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7352
7353 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7354 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7355
7356 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7357 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7358 [Bodo Moeller]
7359
7360 *) New functions/macros
7361
7362 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7363 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7364 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7365 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7366
7367 to request calling a callback function
7368
7369 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7370 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7371
7372 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7373 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7374 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7375 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7376 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7377 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7378 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7379 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7380 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7381 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7382
7383 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7384 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7385 [Bodo Moeller]
7386
7387 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7388 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7389 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7390 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7391 the configuration scripts.
7392
7393 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7394 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7395 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7396
7397 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7398 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7399
7400 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7401 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7402 when reusing an existing buffer.
7403 [Bodo Moeller]
7404
7405 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7406 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7407 [Steve Henson]
7408
7409 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7410 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7411 [Ben Laurie]
7412
7413 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7414 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7415 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7416 has the same effect.
7417 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7418
7419 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7420 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7421 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7422 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7423 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7424 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7425 exception.
7426
7427 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7428 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7429 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7430 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7431
7432 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7433 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7434 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7435 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7436
7437 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7438 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7439 won't work.
7440
7441 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7442 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7443 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7444 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7445 default), and then completely removed.
7446 [Richard Levitte]
7447
7448 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7449 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7450 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7451 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7452 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7453 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7454 particular extension is supported.
7455 [Steve Henson]
7456
7457 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7458 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7459 [Steve Henson]
7460
7461 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7462 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7463 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7464 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7465 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7466 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7467 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7468 requires the destination to be valid.
7469
7470 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7471 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7472 [Steve Henson]
7473
7474 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7475 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7476 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7477 [Bodo Moeller]
7478
7479 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7480 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7481
7482 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7483 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7484 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7485 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7486 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7487 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7488 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7489 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7490 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
7491 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
7492 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
7493 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
7494 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
7495 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
7496 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
7497 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
7498 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
7499 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
7500 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
7501 the new code.
7502 [Geoff Thorpe]
7503
7504 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
7505 [Steve Henson]
7506
7507 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
7508 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
7509 become part of libeay.num as well.
7510 [Richard Levitte]
7511
7512 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
7513 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
7514 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
7515 false once a handshake has been completed.
7516 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
7517 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
7518 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
7519 client has followed the request.)
7520 [Bodo Moeller]
7521
7522 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
7523 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
7524 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
7525 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
7526
7527 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
7528 more bits available for options that should not be part of
7529 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
7530 [Bodo Moeller]
7531
7532 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
7533 [Steve Henson]
7534
7535 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
7536 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
7537 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
7538 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7539
7540 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
7541 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7542 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7543
7544 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
7545 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
7546 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
7547 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
7548 [Geoff Thorpe]
7549
7550 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
7551 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
7552 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
7553 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
7554 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
7555 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
7556 [Geoff Thorpe]
7557
7558 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
7559 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
7560 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
7561 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
7562 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
7563 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
7564 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
7565 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
7566 [Geoff Thorpe]
7567
7568 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
7569 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
7570 [Geoff Thorpe]
7571
7572 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
7573 [Ben Laurie]
7574
7575 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
7576 md_data void pointer.
7577 [Ben Laurie]
7578
7579 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
7580 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
7581 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
7582 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
7583 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
7584 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
7585 [Ben Laurie]
7586
7587 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
7588 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
7589 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
7590 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
7591 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
7592 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
7593 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
7594 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
7595 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
7596 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
7597 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
7598 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
7599 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
7600 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
7601 rather than letting it slide.
7602
7603 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
7604 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
7605 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
7606 [Geoff Thorpe]
7607
7608 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
7609 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
7610 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
7611 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
7612 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
7613 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
7614 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
7615 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
7616 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
7617 [Geoff Thorpe]
7618
7619 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
7620 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
7621 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
7622 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
7623 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
7624
7625 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
7626 [Geoff Thorpe]
7627
7628 *) Add EVP test program.
7629 [Ben Laurie]
7630
7631 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
7632 [Ben Laurie]
7633
7634 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
7635 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
7636 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
7637 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
7638 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
7639 [Steve Henson]
7640
7641 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
7642 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
7643 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
7644 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
7645 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
7646 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
7647 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
7648
7649 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
7650 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
7651 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
7652 Usage example:
7653
7654 EVP_MD_CTX md;
7655
7656 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
7657 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
7658 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
7659 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
7660 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
7661
7662 [Ben Laurie]
7663
7664 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
7665 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
7666 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
7667 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
7668 anyway): E.g.,
7669
7670 des_key_schedule ks;
7671
7672 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
7673 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
7674
7675 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
7676 [Ben Laurie]
7677
7678 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
7679 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
7680 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
7681 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
7682 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
7683 functions prevents this.
7684 [Steve Henson]
7685
7686 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
7687 [Ben Laurie]
7688
7689 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
7690 correct _ecb suffix.
7691 [Ben Laurie]
7692
7693 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
7694 revocation information is handled using the text based index
7695 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
7696 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
7697 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
7698 [Steve Henson]
7699
7700 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
7701 [Richard Levitte]
7702
7703 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
7704 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
7705 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
7706 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
7707
7708 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
7709 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
7710
7711 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
7712 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7713 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
7714 via Richard Levitte]
7715
7716 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
7717 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
7718 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
7719 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
7720 [Geoff Thorpe]
7721
7722 *) Speed up EVP routines.
7723 Before:

7738 [Ben Laurie]
7739
7740 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
7741 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
7742
7743 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
7744 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
7745 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
7746 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
7747 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
7748 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
7749 [Steve Henson]
7750
7751 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
7752 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
7753 [Richard Levitte]
7754
7755 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
7756 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
7757 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
7758 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
7759
7760 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
7761 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
7762 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
7763 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
7764 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
7765 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
7766 callback.
7767 [Richard Levitte]
7768
7769 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
7770 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
7771 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
7772 and interrupts/cancellations.
7773 [Richard Levitte]
7774
7775 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
7776 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
7777 [Steve Henson]
7778
7779 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
7780 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
7781 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
7782
7783 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
7784 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
7785 kind of callback.
7786 [Richard Levitte]
7787
7788 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
7789 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
7790 than this minimum value is recommended.
7791 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7792
7793 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
7794 that are easily reachable.
7795 [Richard Levitte]
7796
7797 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
7798 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
7799
7800 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
7801
7802 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
7803 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
7804 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
7805 needed for static libraries under Win32.
7806 [Steve Henson]
7807
7808 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
7809 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
7810 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
7811 [Steve Henson]
7812
7813 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
7814 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
7815 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
7816 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
7817 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
7818 internally such as S/MIME.
7819
7820 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
7821 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
7822 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
7823
7824 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
7825 applications.
7826 [Steve Henson]
7827
7828 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
7829 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
7830 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
7831 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
7832
7833 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7834
7835 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
7836
7837 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
7838 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
7839 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
7840 handling.
7841 [Steve Henson]
7842
7843 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
7844 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
7845 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
7846 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
7847 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
7848 a window system and the like.
7849 [Richard Levitte]
7850
7851 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
7852 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
7853 [Geoff]
7854
7855 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
7856 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
7857 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
7858 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
7859 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
7860 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
7861 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
7862 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
7863 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
7864 ENGINE structure.
7865 [Geoff]
7866
7867 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
7868 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
7869 tag cache.
7870 [Steve Henson]
7871
7872 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
7873 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
7874 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
7875 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
7876 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
7877 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
7878 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
7879 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
7880 [Geoff]
7881
7882 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
7883 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
7884 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
7885 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
7886 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
7887 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
7888 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
7889 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
7890 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
7891 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
7892 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
7893 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
7894 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
7895 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
7896 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
7897 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
7898 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
7899 [Geoff]
7900
7901 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
7902 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
7903 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
7904 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
7905 internal engine_int.h header.
7906 [Geoff]
7907
7908 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
7909 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
7910 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
7911 modify their own ones).
7912 [Geoff]
7913
7914 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
7915 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
7916 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
7917 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
7918 later on via ctrl() commands.
7919 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
7920 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
7921 structural references.
7922 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
7923 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
7924 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
7925 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
7926 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
7927 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
7928 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
7929 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
7930 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
7931 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
7932 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
7933 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
7934 [Geoff]
7935
7936 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
7937 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
7938 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
7939 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
7940 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
7941 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
7942 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
7943 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
7944 [Bodo Moeller]
7945
7946 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
7947 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
7948 [Steve Henson]
7949
7950 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
7951 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
7952 [Steve Henson]
7953
7954 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
7955 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
7956 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
7957 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
7958 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
7959 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
7960 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
7961 [Steve Henson]
7962
7963 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
7964 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
7965 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
7966 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
7967 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
7968
7969 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
7970 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
7971 generator).
7972 [Bodo Moeller]
7973
7974 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
7975
7976 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
7977 operations and provides various method functions that can also
7978 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
7979
7980 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
7981 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
7982
7983 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
7984 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
7985 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
7986
7987 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
7988 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
7989
7990 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
7991 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
7992
7993 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
7994
7995 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
7996 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
7997 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
7998 [Bodo Moeller]
7999
8000 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
8001 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
8002 [Richard Levitte]
8003
8004 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
8005 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
8006 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
8007 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
8008 is 40 of more characters long.
8009 [Steve Henson]
8010
8011 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
8012 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
8013 pointers.
8014 [Steve Henson]
8015
8016 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
8017 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
8018 [Bodo Moeller]
8019
8020 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
8021 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
8022 might.
8023 [Steve Henson]
8024
8025 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
8026
8027 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
8028 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
8029
8030 ASN1 error codes
8031 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
8032 ...
8033 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
8034 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
8035 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
8036 ...
8037 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
8038 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
8039
8040 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
8041 [Bodo Moeller]
8042
8043 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
8044 suffices.
8045 [Bodo Moeller]
8046
8047 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
8048 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
8049 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
8050 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
8051 and
8052 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
8053
8054 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
8055 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
8056
8057 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
8058 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
8059 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
8060 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
8061 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
8062 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
8063
8064 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
8065 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
8066
8067 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
8068 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8069
8070 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
8071 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
8072
8073 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
8074 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
8075 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8076 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
8077
8078 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
8079 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
8080
8081 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
8082 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
8083
8084 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
8085 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
8086 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
8087 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
8088 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
8089 [Richard Levitte]
8090
8091 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
8092 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
8093 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
8094 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
8095 [Steve Henson]
8096
8097 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
8098 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
8099 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
8100 trust settings.
8101 [Steve Henson]
8102
8103 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
8104 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
8105 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
8106 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
8107 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
8108 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
8109 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
8110 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
8111 ocsp utility.
8112 [Steve Henson]
8113
8114 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
8115 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
8116 [Steve Henson]
8117
8118 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
8119 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
8120 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
8121 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
8122 [Steve Henson]
8123
8124 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
8125 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
8126 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
8127 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
8128 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
8129 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
8130 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
8131 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
8132 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
8133 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
8134 [Steve Henson]
8135
8136 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
8137 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
8138 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
8139 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
8140 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
8141 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
8142 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
8143 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8144
8145 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
8146 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
8147 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
8148 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
8149 [Richard Levitte]
8150
8151 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
8152 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
8153 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
8154 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
8155 opensslconf.h.
8156 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
8157 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
8158 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
8159 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
8160 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
8161 what is available.
8162 [Richard Levitte]
8163
8164 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
8165 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
8166 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
8167 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
8168 auto incremented.
8169 [Steve Henson]
8170
8171 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
8172 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
8173 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
8174 [Steve Henson]
8175
8176 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
8177 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
8178 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
8179 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
8180 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
8181 [Steve Henson]
8182
8183 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
8184 [Steve Henson]
8185
8186 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
8187 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
8188 option to ocsp utility.
8189 [Steve Henson]
8190
8191 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
8192 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
8193 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
8194 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
8195 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
8196 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
8197 the request is nonce-less.
8198 [Steve Henson]
8199
8200 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8201 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8202 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8203 [Bodo Moeller]
8204
8205 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8206 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8207 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8208 [Steve Henson]
8209
8210 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8211 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8212 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8213 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8214 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8215 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8216
8217 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8218 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8219 appear to exist.
8220 [Steve Henson]
8221
8222 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8223 additional certificates supplied.
8224 [Steve Henson]
8225
8226 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8227 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8228 signature against.
8229 [Richard Levitte]
8230
8231 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8232 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8233 AES OIDs.
8234
8235 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8236 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8237 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8238 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8239 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8240 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8241 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8242 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8243 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8244
8245 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8246 request to response.
8247 [Steve Henson]
8248
8249 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8250 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8251 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8252 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8253 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8254 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8255 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8256 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8257 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8258 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8259 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8260 [Steve Henson]
8261
8262 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8263 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8264 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8265 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8266 [Steve Henson]
8267
8268 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8269 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8270
8271 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8272 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8273 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8274 [Steve Henson]
8275
8276 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8277 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8278 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8279 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8280 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8281
8282 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8283 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8284 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8285 [Steve Henson]
8286
8287 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8288 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8289 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8290 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8291 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8292 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8293 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8294 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8295
8296 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8297 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8298 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8299 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8300 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8301 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8302 [Steve Henson]
8303
8304 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8305 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8306 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8307 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8308 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8309 printout format cleaned up.
8310 [Steve Henson]
8311
8312 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8313 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8314 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8315 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8316 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8317 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8318 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8319 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8320 [Steve Henson]
8321
8322 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8323 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8324 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8325 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8326 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8327 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8328 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8329 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8330 [Steve Henson]
8331
8332 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8333 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8334 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8335 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8336 section to use.
8337 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8338
8339 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8340 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8341 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8342 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8343 [Steve Henson]
8344
8345 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8346 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8347 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8348 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8349 in the index file.
8350 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8351
8352 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8353 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8354 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8355 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8356
8357 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8358 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8359
8360 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8361 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8362 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8363 [Steve Henson]
8364
8365 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8366 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8367 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8368 [Bodo Moeller]
8369
8370 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8371 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8372 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8373 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8374 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8375 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8376 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8377 functions are provided:
8378
8379 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8380 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8381 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8382 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8383
8384 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8385 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8386 extended allocation function is enabled.
8387 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8388 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8389 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8390
8391 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8392 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8393 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8394 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8395 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8396 [Geoff Thorpe]
8397
8398 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8399 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8400 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8401 be queried.
8402 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8403 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8404 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8405 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8406
8407 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8408 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8409 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8410 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8411 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8412 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8413 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8414 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8415 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8416 [Richard Levitte]
8417
8418 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8419 provide utility functions which an application needing
8420 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8421 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8422 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8423
8424 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8425 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8426 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8427 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8428 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8429 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8430 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8431 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8432 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8433
8434 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8435 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8436 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8437 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8438 [Steve Henson]
8439
8440 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8441 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8442 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8443 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8444 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8445 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8446 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8447 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8448 will be added elsewhere.
8449 [Steve Henson]
8450
8451 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8452 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8453 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8454 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8455 [Steve Henson]
8456
8457 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8458 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8459 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8460 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8461 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8462 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8463 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8464 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8465 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8466 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8467 to produce the required SET OF.
8468 [Steve Henson]
8469
8470 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8471 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8472 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8473 [Richard Levitte]
8474
8475 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8476 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8477 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8478 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8479 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8480 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8481 [Steve Henson]
8482
8483 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8484 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8485 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8486 [Steve Henson]
8487
8488 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8489 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8490 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
8491 [Richard Levitte]
8492
8493 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
8494 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
8495 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
8496 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
8497 code will still work when these eventually go away.
8498 [Steve Henson]
8499
8500 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
8501 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
8502 [Steve Henson]
8503
8504 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
8505 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
8506 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
8507 certificates and CRLs.
8508 [Steve Henson]
8509
8510 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
8511 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
8512 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
8513 [Steve Henson]
8514
8515 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
8516 entries for variables.
8517 [Steve Henson]
8518
8519 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
8520 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
8521 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
8522 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
8523 [Bodo Moeller]
8524
8525 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
8526 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
8527 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
8528 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
8529 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
8530 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
8531 [Bodo Moeller]
8532
8533 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
8534 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
8535
8536 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
8537 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
8538 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
8539 [Steve Henson]
8540
8541 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
8542 print routines.
8543 [Steve Henson]
8544
8545 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
8546 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
8547 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
8548 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
8549 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
8550 order did not reflect the encoded order.
8551 [Steve Henson]
8552
8553 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
8554 [Steve Henson]
8555
8556 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
8557 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
8558 for now but they will eventually go away.
8559 [Steve Henson]
8560
8561 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
8562 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
8563 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
8564 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
8565 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
8566 has also been converted to the new form.
8567 [Steve Henson]
8568
8569 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
8570 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
8571 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
8572 for negative moduli.
8573 [Bodo Moeller]
8574
8575 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
8576 of not touching the result's sign bit.
8577 [Bodo Moeller]
8578
8579 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
8580 set.
8581 [Bodo Moeller]
8582
8583 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
8584 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
8585 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
8586 type-specific callbacks.
8587 [Geoff Thorpe]
8588
8589 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
8590 RFC 2712.
8591 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
8592 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
8593
8594 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
8595 in sections depending on the subject.
8596 [Richard Levitte]
8597
8598 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
8599 Windows.
8600 [Richard Levitte]
8601
8602 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
8603 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
8604 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
8605 be handled deterministically).
8606 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8607
8608 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
8609 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
8610 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
8611 [Bodo Moeller]
8612
8613 *) New function BN_kronecker.
8614 [Bodo Moeller]
8615
8616 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
8617 positive unless both parameters are zero.
8618 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
8619 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
8620 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
8621 [Bodo Moeller]
8622
8623 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
8624 sign of the number in question.
8625
8626 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
8627
8628 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
8629 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
8630 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
8631 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
8632 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
8633 [Bodo Moeller]
8634
8635 *) New function BN_swap.
8636 [Bodo Moeller]
8637
8638 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
8639 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
8640 results on negative inputs.
8641 [Bodo Moeller]
8642
8643 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
8644 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
8645 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
8646 [Bodo Moeller]
8647
8648 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
8649 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
8650 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
8651 and add new functions:
8652
8653 BN_nnmod
8654 BN_mod_sqr
8655 BN_mod_add
8656 BN_mod_add_quick
8657 BN_mod_sub
8658 BN_mod_sub_quick
8659 BN_mod_lshift1
8660 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
8661 BN_mod_lshift
8662 BN_mod_lshift_quick
8663
8664 These functions always generate non-negative results.
8665
8666 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
8667 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
8668
8669 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
8670 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
8671 be reduced modulo m.
8672 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8673
8674 #if 0
8675 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
8676 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
8677 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
8678
8679 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
8680 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
8681 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
8682 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
8683 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
8684 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
8685 differing sizes.
8686 [Richard Levitte]
8687 #endif
8688
8689 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
8690 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
8691 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
8692 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
8693 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
8694
8695 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
8696 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
8697 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
8698 cause any problems.
8699 [Bodo Moeller]
8700
8701 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
8702 [Richard Levitte]
8703
8704 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
8705 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
8706 [Richard Levitte]
8707
8708 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
8709 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
8710 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
8711 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
8712 time)
8713 [Richard Levitte]
8714
8715 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
8716 [Richard Levitte]
8717
8718 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
8719 [Richard Levitte]
8720
8721 *) Add the following functions:
8722
8723 ENGINE_load_cswift()
8724 ENGINE_load_chil()
8725 ENGINE_load_atalla()
8726 ENGINE_load_nuron()
8727 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
8728
8729 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
8730 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
8731 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
8732 libraries unless it's really needed.
8733
8734 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
8735 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
8736 declarations (they differed!).
8737 [Richard Levitte]
8738
8739 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
8740 [Richard Levitte]
8741
8742 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
8743 [Richard Levitte]
8744
8745 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
8746 [Bodo Moeller]
8747
8748 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
8749 identity, and test if they are actually available.
8750 [Richard Levitte]
8751
8752 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
8753 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
8754 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8755
8756 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
8757 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
8758 [Richard Levitte]
8759
8760 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
8761 [Richard Levitte]
8762
8763 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
8764 [Richard Levitte]
8765
8766 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
8767 [Ben Laurie]
8768
8769 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
8770 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
8771 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
8772
8773 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
8774 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
8775 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
8776 different shared library filenames on each system.
8777 [Geoff Thorpe]
8778
8779 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
8780 [Richard Levitte]
8781
8782 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
8783 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
8784 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
8785 of two sections.
8786 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
8787
8788 *) NCONF changes.
8789 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
8790 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
8791 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
8792 binary backward compatibility.
8793 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
8794 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
8795 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
8796 LDAP server.
8797 [Richard Levitte]
8798
8799 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
8800 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
8801 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
8802 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
8803 this case.
8804 [Steve Henson]
8805
8806 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
8807 [Ben Laurie]
8808
8809 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
8810 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
8811 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
8812 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
8813 set.
8814 [Steve Henson]
8815
8816 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
8817 [Richard Levitte]
8818
8819 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
8820
8821 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
8822 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
8823 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
8824
8825 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
8826
8827 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
8828
8829 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
8830 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
8831 [Steve Henson]
8832
8833 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
8834
8835 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
8836
8837 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
8838 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
8839
8840 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
8841 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
8842
8843 [Steve Henson]
8844
8845 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
8846 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
8847 specifications.
8848 [Steve Henson]
8849
8850 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
8851 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
8852 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
8853 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
8854
8855 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
8856 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
8857 [Richard Levitte]
8858
8859 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
8860
8861 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
8862 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
8863 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
8864 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
8865 [Bodo Moeller]
8866
8867 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
8868 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
8869 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
8870 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
8871 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8872
8873 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
8874 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
8875 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
8876 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
8877 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
8878 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
8879 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
8880 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
8881 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
8882 [Bodo Moeller]
8883
8884 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
8885
8886 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
8887 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
8888 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
8889 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
8890 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
8891
8892 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
8893 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
8894 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
8895
8896 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
8897
8898 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
8899 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
8900 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
8901 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
8902 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
8903 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
8904 [Geoff Thorpe]
8905
8906 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
8907 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
8908 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
8909 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
8910 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
8911 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8912
8913 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
8914 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
8915 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
8916
8917 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
8918 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
8919 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
8920 EVP_cleanup().
8921 [Richard Levitte]
8922
8923 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
8924 being properly terminated.
8925 [Richard Levitte]
8926
8927 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
8928 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
8929 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
8930 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
8931
8932 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
8933 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
8934 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
8935 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
8936 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
8937 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
8938 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
8939 change.
8940 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
8941
8942 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
8943 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
8944 [Bodo Moeller]
8945
8946 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
8947 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
8948 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
8949 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
8950 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
8951 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
8952 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
8953 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
8954
8955 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
8956 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
8957 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
8958 (see [openssl.org #212]).
8959 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8960
8961 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
8962 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
8963 [Steve Henson]
8964
8965 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
8966
8967 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
8968 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
8969 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
8970
8971 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
8972
8973 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
8974 and get fix the header length calculation.
8975 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
8976 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
8977 Steve Henson]
8978
8979 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
8980 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
8981 assertions could call abort()).
8982 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
8983
8984 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
8985
8986 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
8987 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
8988 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
8989 supplied buffer.
8990 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
8991
8992 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
8993 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
8994 by the selection routines (PR #130).
8995 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8996
8997 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
8998 [Nils Larsch]
8999
9000 *) New option
9001 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
9002 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
9003 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
9004
9005 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
9006 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
9007 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
9008 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
9009 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
9010 applications.
9011 [Bodo Moeller]
9012
9013 *) Changes in security patch:
9014
9015 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
9016 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
9017 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
9018 F30602-01-2-0537.
9019
9020 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9021 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9022 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9023 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
9024 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9025
9026 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
9027 happen in practice.
9028 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9029
9030 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
9031 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
9032 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
9033
9034 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
9035 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
9036 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9037
9038 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
9039 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
9040 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9041
9042 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
9043
9044 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
9045 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
9046 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
9047
9048 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
9049 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
9050
9051 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
9052 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
9053 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
9054 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
9055 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
9056 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
9057 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9058
9059 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
9060 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
9061 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
9062 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
9063 [Bodo Moeller]
9064
9065 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
9066 [Bodo Moeller]
9067
9068 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
9069 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
9070 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
9071 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
9072 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
9073 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9074
9075 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
9076 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
9077 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
9078 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
9079 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
9080 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9081
9082 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
9083 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
9084 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
9085 BN_generate_prime().)
9086
9087 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
9088 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
9089 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
9090 better.
9091 [Bodo Moeller]
9092
9093 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
9094 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
9095 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9096
9097 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
9098 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
9099 when using non-blocking I/O.
9100 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
9101
9102 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
9103 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
9104
9105 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
9106 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
9107 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9108
9109 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
9110 configuration for the versions before that.
9111 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
9112
9113 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
9114 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
9115 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
9116 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
9117 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9118
9119 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
9120 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
9121 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
9122 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9123
9124 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
9125 value is 0.
9126 [Richard Levitte]
9127
9128 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
9129 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
9130 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
9131
9132 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
9133 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
9134
9135 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
9136 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
9137 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
9138 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
9139 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
9140 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
9141 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
9142 session cache.
9143
9144 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
9145 using a local variable.
9146 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
9147
9148 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
9149 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
9150 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9151
9152 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
9153 [Richard Levitte]
9154
9155 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
9156 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
9157
9158 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
9159 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
9160 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
9161
9162 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
9163
9164 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
9165 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
9166 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
9167 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
9168 [Bodo Moeller]
9169
9170 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
9171 present.
9172 [Steve Henson]
9173
9174 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
9175 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
9176 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
9177 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
9178 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
9179
9180 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
9181 returns early because it has nothing to do.
9182 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9183
9184 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9185 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
9186 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9187
9188 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9189 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
9190 (Use engine 'keyclient')
9191 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
9192
9193 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
9194 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
9195 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
9196 modules).
9197 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
9198
9199 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9200 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9201 from 0.9.7.
9202 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9203
9204 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9205 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9206 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9207 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9208
9209 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9210 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9211 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9212 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9213
9214 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9215 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9216
9217 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9218 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9219 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9220 [Bodo Moeller]
9221
9222 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9223 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9224 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9225 become invalid.
9226 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9227
9228 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9229 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9230 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9231 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9232 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9233 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9234 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9235 [Bodo Moeller]
9236
9237 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9238 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9239 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9240 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9241
9242 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9243 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9244 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9245 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9246 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9247 the client will at least see that alert.
9248 [Bodo Moeller]
9249
9250 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9251 correctly.
9252 [Bodo Moeller]
9253
9254 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9255 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9256 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9257
9258 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9259 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9260 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9261 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9262 HelloRequest.
9263
9264 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9265 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9266 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9267
9268 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9269 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9270 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9271 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9272 may leak via logfiles.)
9273
9274 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9275 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9276 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9277 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9278 the legal range.
9279 [Bodo Moeller]
9280
9281 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9282 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9283 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9284
9285 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9286 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9287 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9288 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9289 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9290 [Bodo Moeller]
9291
9292 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9293 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9294
9295 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9296 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9297 followed by modular reduction.
9298 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9299
9300 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9301 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9302 [Bodo Moeller]
9303
9304 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9305 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9306 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9307 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9308 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9309
9310 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9311 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9312
9313 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9314 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9315 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9316
9317 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9318 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9319 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9320 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9321 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9322 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9323 automatically.
9324 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9325
9326 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9327 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9328 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9329 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9330 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9331
9332 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9333 [Andy Polyakov]
9334
9335 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9336 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9337 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9338 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9339 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9340 to allow the necessary settings.
9341 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9342
9343 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9344 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9345 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9346 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9347 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9348
9349 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9350 dh->length and always used
9351
9352 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9353
9354 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9355 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9356 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9357 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9358 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9359 dh->length.
9360
9361 So switch back to
9362
9363 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9364
9365 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9366 otherwise.
9367 [Bodo Moeller]
9368
9369 *) In
9370
9371 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9372 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9373 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9374 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9375
9376 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9377 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9378 always reject numbers >= n.
9379 [Bodo Moeller]
9380
9381 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9382 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9383 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9384 variable) is not atomic.
9385 [Bodo Moeller]
9386
9387 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9388 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9389 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9390 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9391
9392 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9393 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9394
9395 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9396 little-endian MIPS.
9397 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9398
9399 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9400 [Richard Levitte]
9401
9402 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9403
9404 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9405 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9406 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9407 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9408 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9409 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9410 to traverse all of 'state'.
9411
9412 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9413 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9414 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9415
9416 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9417 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9418
9419 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9420 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9421 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9422 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9423 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9424 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9425 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9426 further strengthens the PRNG.
9427 [Bodo Moeller]
9428
9429 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9430 [Andy Polyakov]
9431
9432 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9433 an error message in this case.
9434 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9435
9436 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9437 [Steve Henson]
9438
9439 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9440 positive and less than q.
9441 [Bodo Moeller]
9442
9443 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9444 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9445 that itself.
9446 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9447
9448 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9449 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9450 [Bodo Moeller]
9451
9452 *) Fix OAEP check.
9453 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9454
9455 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9456 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9457 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9458 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9459 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9460 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9461 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9462 paper.)
9463
9464 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9465 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9466 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9467 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9468
9469 Both problems are now fixed.
9470 [Bodo Moeller]
9471
9472 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9473 (previously it was 1024).
9474 [Bodo Moeller]
9475
9476 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9477 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9478 [Steve Henson]
9479
9480 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9481 [Steve Henson]
9482
9483 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9484 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9485 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9486 [Steve Henson]
9487
9488 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9489 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9490 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
9491 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
9492 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
9493 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
9494 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
9495 environment variables.
9496
9497 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
9498 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
9499 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
9500 [Bodo Moeller]
9501
9502 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
9503 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
9504 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
9505 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
9506 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
9507 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
9508 [Bodo Moeller]
9509
9510 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
9511 versions of 'test'.
9512 [Bodo Moeller]
9513
9514 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
9515
9516 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
9517 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
9518
9519 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
9520 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
9521 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
9522 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
9523 CygWin.
9524 [Richard Levitte]
9525
9526 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
9527 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
9528 amount of data available.
9529 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
9530 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9531
9532 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
9533 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
9534 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
9535 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
9536 [Bodo Moeller]
9537
9538 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
9539 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
9540 and UnixWare.
9541 [Richard Levitte]
9542
9543 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
9544 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
9545 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
9546 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
9547 [Ulf Moeller]
9548
9549 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
9550 [Andy Polyakov]
9551
9552 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
9553 [Richard Levitte]
9554
9555 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
9556 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
9557 [Steve Henson]
9558 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9559
9560 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
9561 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
9562 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
9563 (but broken) behaviour.
9564 [Steve Henson]
9565
9566 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
9567 it when found.
9568 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
9569
9570 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
9571 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
9572 [Bodo Moeller]
9573
9574 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
9575 did not exist.
9576 [Bodo Moeller]
9577
9578 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
9579 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
9580
9581 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
9582 [Richard Levitte]
9583
9584 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
9585 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
9586 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
9587
9588 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
9589 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
9590 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
9591 [Steve Henson]
9592
9593 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
9594 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
9595 [Ulf Moeller]
9596
9597 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
9598 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
9599
9600 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
9601
9602 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
9603
9604 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
9605 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
9606 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
9607 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
9608 [Bodo Moeller]
9609
9610 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
9611 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9612
9613 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
9614 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
9615 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9616
9617 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
9618 was empty.
9619 [Steve Henson]
9620 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9621
9622 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
9623 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
9624 but the code is actually correct.
9625 [Steve Henson]
9626
9627 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
9628 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
9629 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
9630 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
9631 and leaves the highest bit random.
9632 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9633
9634 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
9635 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
9636 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
9637 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
9638 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
9639 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
9640 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
9641 [Bodo Moeller]
9642
9643 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
9644 [Ulf Moeller]
9645
9646 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
9647 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
9648 [Steve Henson]
9649
9650 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
9651 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
9652 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
9653 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
9654 headers.
9655 [Richard Levitte]
9656
9657 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
9658 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
9659 and break the signature.
9660 [Steve Henson]
9661 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9662
9663 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
9664 DH ciphersuites.
9665 [Steve Henson]
9666
9667 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
9668 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
9669 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
9670 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
9671 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
9672 [Bodo Moeller]
9673
9674 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
9675 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9676
9677 *) ./config script fixes.
9678 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
9679
9680 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
9681 [Bodo Moeller]
9682
9683 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
9684 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
9685 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
9686 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
9687 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
9688
9689 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
9690 call failed, free the DSA structure.
9691 [Bodo Moeller]
9692
9693 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
9694 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
9695 [Steve Henson]
9696
9697 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
9698 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
9699 when writing a 32767 byte record.
9700 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
9701
9702 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
9703 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
9704
9705 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
9706 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
9707 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
9708 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
9709 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
9710
9711 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
9712 [Bodo Moeller]
9713
9714 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
9715 [Ulf Möller]
9716
9717 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
9718 [Ulf Möller]
9719
9720 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
9721 [Bodo Moeller]
9722
9723 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
9724 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
9725 [Bodo Moeller]
9726
9727 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
9728 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
9729 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
9730 result of the server certificate verification.)
9731 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9732
9733 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
9734 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
9735 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
9736 [Bodo Moeller]
9737
9738 *) Fix SSL_peek:
9739 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
9740 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
9741 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
9742 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
9743 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
9744 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
9745 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
9746 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
9747 [Bodo Moeller]
9748
9749 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
9750 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
9751 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
9752 happening the other way round.
9753 [Geoff Thorpe]
9754
9755 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
9756 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
9757 [Bodo Moeller]
9758
9759 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
9760 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
9761 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
9762 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
9763 [Richard Levitte]
9764
9765 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
9766 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
9767
9768 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
9769
9770 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
9771 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
9772 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
9773 that.
9774
9775 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
9776
9777 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
9778
9779 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
9780 static ones.
9781 [Richard Levitte]
9782
9783 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
9784
9785 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
9786 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
9787 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
9788 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
9789 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
9790
9791 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
9792 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
9793 matter what.
9794 [Richard Levitte]
9795
9796 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
9797 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9798
9799 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
9800
9801 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
9802 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
9803 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
9804 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
9805 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
9806 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
9807 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
9808 by the Finished messages.
9809 [Bodo Moeller]
9810
9811 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
9812 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
9813
9814 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
9815 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
9816 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
9817 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
9818 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
9819 appropriately.
9820 [Steve Henson]
9821
9822 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
9823 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
9824 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
9825 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
9826 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
9827 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
9828 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
9829 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
9830 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
9831 together.
9832 [Steve Henson]
9833
9834 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
9835 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
9836 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
9837 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
9838
9839 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
9840 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
9841 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
9842 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
9843 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
9844 the answer.
9845
9846 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
9847 been tested well enough.
9848 [Richard Levitte]
9849
9850 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
9851 it can return incorrect results.
9852 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
9853 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
9854 [Bodo Moeller]
9855
9856 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
9857 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
9858 include zero length content when signing messages.
9859 [Steve Henson]
9860
9861 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
9862 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
9863 [Bodo Möller]
9864
9865 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
9866 [Richard Levitte]
9867
9868 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
9869 wrong sign.
9870 [Ulf Möller]
9871
9872 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
9873 packages. The default package contains applications, application
9874 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
9875 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
9876 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
9877 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
9878 [Richard Levitte]
9879
9880 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
9881 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9882
9883 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
9884 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
9885
9886 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
9887 random number < q in the DSA library.
9888 [Ulf Möller]
9889
9890 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
9891 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
9892 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
9893 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
9894 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
9895 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
9896 just makes things more complicated.)
9897 [Bodo Moeller]
9898
9899 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
9900 from EGD.
9901 [Ben Laurie]
9902
9903 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
9904 work better on such systems.
9905 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9906
9907 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
9908 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
9909 keyid to the certificates aux info.
9910 [Steve Henson]
9911
9912 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
9913 if there was more than one signature.
9914 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
9915
9916 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
9917 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
9918 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
9919 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
9920 [Richard Levitte]
9921
9922 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
9923 rather than always using the current time.
9924 [Steve Henson]
9925
9926 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
9927 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
9928 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
9929 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
9930 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
9931 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
9932
9933 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
9934 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
9935
9936 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
9937
9938 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
9939 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
9940 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
9941 the same hash value.
9942
9943 As a result various functions (which were all internal
9944 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
9945 structure. This will break anything that messed round
9946 with X509_STORE internally.
9947
9948 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
9949 exact match, rather than just subject name.
9950
9951 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
9952 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
9953 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
9954 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
9955 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
9956 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
9957 entirely (maybe later...).
9958
9959 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
9960
9961 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
9962 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
9963 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
9964 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
9965 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
9966 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
9967 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
9968 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
9969
9970 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
9971 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
9972
9973 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
9974 to customise the verify behaviour.
9975 [Steve Henson]
9976
9977 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
9978 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
9979 [Steve Henson]
9980
9981 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
9982 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
9983 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
9984 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
9985 request is improperly encoded.
9986 [Steve Henson]
9987
9988 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
9989 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
9990 BIO_write(b, ...).
9991
9992 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
9993 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
9994
9995 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
9996 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
9997 words set to zero.)
9998 [Bodo Moeller]
9999
10000 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
10001 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
10002 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
10003 [Bodo Moeller]
10004
10005 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
10006 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
10007 BIO/fp routines also added.
10008 [Steve Henson]
10009
10010 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
10011 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
10012
10013 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
10014 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
10015 demos/state_machine.
10016 [Ben Laurie]
10017
10018 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
10019 generation and verification.
10020 [Steve Henson]
10021
10022 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
10023 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
10024 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
10025 encode and decode it manually.
10026 [Steve Henson]
10027
10028 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
10029 compile under VC++.
10030 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
10031
10032 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
10033 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
10034 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
10035 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
10036
10037 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
10038 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
10039 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
10040 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
10041 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
10042 [Steve Henson]
10043
10044 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
10045 [Richard Levitte]
10046
10047 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
10048 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
10049 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
10050
10051 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
10052 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
10053 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
10054 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
10055 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
10056 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
10057 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
10058 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
10059
10060 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
10061 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
10062
10063 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
10064
10065 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
10066 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
10067 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
10068
10069 [Richard Levitte]
10070
10071 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
10072 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
10073 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
10074 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
10075 [Richard Levitte]
10076
10077 *) MD4 implemented.
10078 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
10079
10080 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
10081 [Richard Levitte]
10082
10083 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
10084 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
10085 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
10086 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
10087 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
10088 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
10089 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
10090 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
10091 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
10092 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
10093 short or long names are found.
10094 [Steve Henson]
10095
10096 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
10097 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
10098
10099 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
10100 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
10101 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
10102 version rollback attacks was not effective.
10103
10104 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
10105 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
10106 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
10107 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
10108 [Bodo Moeller]
10109
10110 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
10111 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
10112 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
10113 [Richard Levitte]
10114
10115 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
10116 these print out strings and name structures based on various
10117 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
10118 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
10119 to allow the various flags to be set.
10120 [Steve Henson]
10121
10122 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
10123 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
10124 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
10125 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
10126 dates to be checked.
10127 [Steve Henson]
10128
10129 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
10130 negative public key encodings) on by default,
10131 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
10132 [Steve Henson]
10133
10134 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
10135 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
10136 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
10137 [Steve Henson]
10138
10139 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
10140 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
10141 [Bodo Moeller]
10142
10143 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
10144 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
10145 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
10146 are always statically linked for now, but there are
10147 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
10148 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
10149 [Richard Levitte]
10150
10151 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
10152 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
10153 Random Numbers.
10154 [Ulf Möller]
10155
10156 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
10157 DSA key.
10158 [Steve Henson]
10159
10160 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
10161 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
10162 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
10163 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
10164 form signing output easier to verify.
10165 [Steve Henson]
10166
10167 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
10168 [Steve Henson]
10169
10170 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
10171 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
10172 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
10173 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
10174 are needed because all other string types have virtually
10175 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
10176 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
10177 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
10178 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
10179 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
10180 [Steve Henson]
10181
10182 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
10183
10184 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
10185 the syntax given in objects.README.
10186 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
10187 obj_mac.h.
10188 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
10189 obj_mac.h.
10190
10191 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
10192 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
10193 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
10194 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
10195 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
10196 consistent name changes.
10197 [Richard Levitte]
10198
10199 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
10200 [Bodo Moeller]
10201
10202 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10203 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10204 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10205 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10206 [Richard Levitte]
10207
10208 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10209 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10210 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10211 of safestack.h .
10212 [Steve Henson]
10213
10214 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10215 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10216 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10217 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10218 [Steve Henson]
10219
10220 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10221 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10222 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10223 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10224 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10225 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10226 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10227 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10228 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10229 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10230 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10231 [Steve Henson]
10232
10233 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10234 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10235 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10236 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10237 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10238 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10239 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10240 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10241 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10242 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10243 [Steve Henson]
10244
10245 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10246 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10247 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10248 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10249
10250 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10251 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10252 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10253 omit any duplicate addresses.
10254 [Steve Henson]
10255
10256 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10257 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10258 [Bodo Moeller]
10259
10260 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10261 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10262 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10263 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10264 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10265 [Bodo Moeller]
10266
10267 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10268 software:
10269 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10270 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10271 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10272 Free => OPENSSL_free
10273 [Richard Levitte]
10274
10275 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10276 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10277 [Bodo Moeller]
10278
10279 *) CygWin32 support.
10280 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10281
10282 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10283 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10284 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10285 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10286 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10287 approach.
10288 [Geoff Thorpe]
10289
10290 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10291 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10292 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10293 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10294 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10295 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10296 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10297 [Geoff Thorpe]
10298
10299 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10300 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10301 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10302 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10303 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10304 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10305 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10306 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10307 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10308 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10309 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10310 [Bodo Moeller]
10311
10312 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10313 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10314 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10315 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10316 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10317
10318 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10319 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10320 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10321 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10322 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10323
10324 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10325 ciphers.
10326
10327 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10328 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10329 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10330 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10331
10332 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10333
10334 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10335 of macros.
10336
10337 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10338 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10339 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10340 flags.
10341
10342 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10343 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10344 any installed hardware versions can.
10345 [Steve Henson]
10346
10347 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10348 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10349 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10350 number.
10351 [Bodo Moeller]
10352
10353 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10354 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10355 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10356 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10357 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10358
10359 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10360 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10361 [Steve Henson]
10362
10363 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10364 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10365 [Richard Levitte]
10366
10367 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10368 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10369 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10370 features.
10371 [Steve Henson]
10372
10373 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10374 [Ulf Möller]
10375
10376 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10377 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10378 but no ssl client purpose.
10379 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10380
10381 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10382 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10383 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10384 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10385 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10386 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10387 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10388 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10389 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10390 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10391 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10392 [Steve Henson]
10393
10394 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10395 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10396 be obtained from the error queue.
10397 [Bodo Moeller]
10398
10399 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10400 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10401 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10402 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10403 [Bodo Moeller]
10404
10405 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10406 [Ulf Möller]
10407
10408 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10409 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10410 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10411 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10412 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10413 [Geoff Thorpe]
10414
10415 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10416 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10417 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10418 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10419 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10420 [Geoff Thorpe]
10421
10422 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10423 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10424 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10425 may not be NULL.
10426 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10427
10428 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10429 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10430 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10431 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10432 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10433 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10434 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10435 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10436 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10437 or "the configuration storage API"...
10438
10439 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10440
10441 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10442 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10443
10444 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10445
10446 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10447
10448 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10449 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10450 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10451 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10452 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10453 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
10454 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10455
10456 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10457 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10458 [Richard Levitte]
10459
10460 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10461 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10462 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10463 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10464 [Bodo Moeller]
10465
10466 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10467 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10468 them in a portable way.
10469 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10470
10471 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10472
10473 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10474
10475 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10476 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10477
10478 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10479 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10480 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10481 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10482
10483 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10484 was larger than the MD block size.
10485 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10486
10487 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10488 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10489 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10490 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
10491 components.
10492 [Steve Henson]
10493
10494 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
10495 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
10496 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
10497
10498 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
10499 discouraged.
10500 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
10501
10502 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
10503 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
10504 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
10505 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
10506 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
10507 Additional arguments are always ignored.
10508
10509 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
10510 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
10511
10512 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
10513 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
10514 [Bodo Moeller]
10515
10516 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
10517 [Bodo Moeller]
10518
10519 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
10520 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
10521 its own key.
10522 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
10523 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
10524 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
10525 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
10526 [Bodo Moeller]
10527
10528 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
10529 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
10530 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
10531 does not suppress any output.
10532 [Richard Levitte]
10533
10534 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
10535 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
10536 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
10537 with all the associated security issues.
10538
10539 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
10540 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
10541 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
10542 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
10543 use the value in the default purpose.
10544 [Steve Henson]
10545
10546 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
10547 and fix a memory leak.
10548 [Steve Henson]
10549
10550 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
10551 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
10552 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
10553 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
10554 [Bodo Moeller]
10555
10556 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
10557 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
10558 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
10559 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
10560 [Bodo Moeller]
10561
10562 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
10563 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
10564 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
10565 [Bodo Moeller]
10566
10567 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
10568 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
10569 [Bodo Moeller]
10570
10571 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
10572 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
10573 which was free.
10574 [Steve Henson]
10575
10576 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
10577 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
10578 [Bodo Moeller]
10579
10580 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
10581 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
10582 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
10583 [Bodo Moeller]
10584
10585 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
10586 number generation fails.
10587 [Bodo Moeller]
10588
10589 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
10590 [Bodo Moeller]
10591
10592 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
10593 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
10594
10595 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
10596 [Ulf Möller]
10597
10598 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
10599 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
10600
10601 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
10602 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
10603
10604 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
10605
10606 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
10607 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
10608 [Steve Henson]
10609
10610 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
10611 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
10612
10613 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
10614 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
10615 [Ulf Möller]
10616
10617 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
10618 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
10619 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
10620 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
10621 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
10622 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
10623
10624 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
10625 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
10626 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
10627 for example.
10628 [Steve Henson]
10629
10630 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
10631 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
10632 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
10633 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
10634 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
10635 counter, some don't.)
10636 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
10637 counters or duplicate objects.
10638 [Steve Henson]
10639
10640 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
10641 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
10642 [Steve Henson]
10643
10644 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
10645 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
10646 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
10647
10648 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
10649 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
10650 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
10651 or -rand.
10652 [Ulf Möller]
10653
10654 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
10655 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
10656 [Steve Henson]
10657
10658 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
10659 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
10660 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
10661 cipher list.
10662 [Steve Henson]
10663
10664 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
10665 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
10666 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
10667 [Steve Henson]
10668
10669 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
10670 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
10671 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
10672 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
10673 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
10674 should work without changes.
10675 [Richard Levitte]
10676
10677 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
10678 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
10679 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
10680 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
10681 must be defined. E.g.,
10682 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
10683 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
10684 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
10685 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
10686
10687 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
10688 record layer.
10689 [Bodo Moeller]
10690
10691 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
10692 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
10693 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
10694 [Steve Henson]
10695
10696 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
10697 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
10698 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
10699 request header lines. Some software needs this.
10700 [Steve Henson]
10701
10702 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
10703 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
10704 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
10705 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
10706 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
10707 is prompted for as usual.
10708 [Steve Henson]
10709
10710 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
10711 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
10712 autodetect the card and use it if present.
10713 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
10714
10715 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
10716 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
10717 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
10718 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
10719 [Steve Henson]
10720
10721 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
10722 [Andy Polyakov]
10723
10724 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
10725 of seed file.
10726 [Steve Henson]
10727
10728 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
10729 [Bodo Moeller]
10730
10731 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
10732 [Steve Henson]
10733
10734 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
10735 bits.
10736 [Ulf Möller]
10737
10738 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
10739 [Ulf Möller]
10740
10741 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
10742 [Andy Polyakov]
10743
10744 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
10745 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
10746 [Ulf Möller]
10747
10748 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
10749 options to produce them.
10750 [Steve Henson]
10751
10752 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
10753 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
10754 [Ulf Möller]
10755
10756 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
10757 for p == 0.
10758 [Ulf Möller]
10759
10760 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
10761 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
10762 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
10763 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
10764 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
10765 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
10766 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
10767 [Steve Henson]
10768
10769 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
10770 [Steve Henson]
10771
10772 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
10773 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
10774 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
10775 [Bodo Moeller]
10776
10777 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
10778 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
10779
10780 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
10781 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
10782 [Ulf Möller]
10783
10784 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
10785 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
10786 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
10787 has already seen).
10788 [Bodo Moeller]
10789
10790 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
10791 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
10792
10793 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
10794 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
10795 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
10796 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
10797 generation becomes much faster.
10798
10799 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
10800 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
10801 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
10802 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
10803 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
10804 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
10805 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
10806 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
10807 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
10808 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
10809 [Bodo Moeller]
10810
10811 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
10812 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
10813 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
10814 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
10815 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
10816 trial division stage.
10817 [Bodo Moeller]
10818
10819 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
10820 as ASN1_TIME.
10821 [Steve Henson]
10822
10823 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
10824 [Steve Henson]
10825
10826 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
10827 [Ulf Möller]
10828
10829 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
10830 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
10831 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
10832 the comments.
10833 [Ulf Möller]
10834
10835 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
10836 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
10837 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
10838 [Bodo Moeller]
10839
10840 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
10841 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
10842 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
10843 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
10844
10845 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
10846 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
10847 [Steve Henson]
10848
10849 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
10850 [Ulf Möller]
10851
10852 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
10853 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
10854 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
10855 Rabin-Miller iterations.
10856 [Ulf Möller]
10857
10858 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
10859 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
10860 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
10861 [Ulf Möller]
10862
10863 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
10864 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
10865 (instead of parameters) in future.
10866 [Steve Henson]
10867
10868 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
10869 when a new cipher list is set.
10870 [Steve Henson]
10871
10872 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
10873 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
10874 wrong.
10875
10876 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
10877 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
10878 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
10879
10880 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
10881 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
10882 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
10883 an error is flagged.
10884
10885 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
10886 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
10887 the readability was also increased :-)
10888 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10889
10890 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
10891 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
10892 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
10893 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
10894 as the root CA.
10895 [Steve Henson]
10896
10897 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
10898 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
10899 [Steve Henson]
10900
10901 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
10902 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
10903 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
10904 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
10905 instead.
10906
10907 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
10908 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
10909 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
10910 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
10911 because they handle more complex structures.)
10912 [Steve Henson]
10913
10914 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
10915 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
10916 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
10917 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10918
10919 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
10920 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
10921 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
10922 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
10923 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
10924 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
10925 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
10926 [Ulf Möller]
10927
10928 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
10929 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
10930 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
10931 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
10932 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
10933 [Bodo Moeller]
10934
10935 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
10936 [Bodo Moeller]
10937
10938 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
10939 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
10940 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
10941 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
10942 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
10943 to use this.
10944
10945 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
10946 code.
10947 [Steve Henson]
10948
10949 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
10950 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
10951 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
10952 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
10953 [Steve Henson]
10954
10955 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
10956 [Ulf Möller]
10957
10958 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
10959 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
10960 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
10961 international characters are used.
10962
10963 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
10964 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
10965 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
10966 in ASN1 order.
10967 [Steve Henson]
10968
10969 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
10970 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
10971 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
10972 request.
10973
10974 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
10975 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
10976 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
10977 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
10978 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
10979 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
10980
10981 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
10982 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
10983 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
10984 be handled by the string table functions.
10985
10986 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
10987 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
10988 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
10989 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
10990 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
10991 types at all.
10992 [Steve Henson]
10993
10994 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
10995 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
10996 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
10997 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
10998 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
10999
11000 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
11001 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
11002 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
11003 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
11004 [Bodo Moeller]
11005
11006 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
11007 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
11008 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
11009 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
11010 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
11011 SHA1.
11012 [Andy Polyakov]
11013
11014 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
11015 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
11016 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
11017 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
11018 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
11019 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
11020 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
11021 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
11022
11023 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
11024 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
11025 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
11026 [Steve Henson]
11027
11028 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
11029 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
11030 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
11031 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
11032 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
11033 support to pkcs8 application.
11034 [Steve Henson]
11035
11036 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
11037 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
11038 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
11039 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
11040 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
11041 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
11042 [Bodo Moeller]
11043
11044 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
11045 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
11046 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
11047 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
11048 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
11049 consistency.
11050 [Bodo Moeller]
11051
11052 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
11053 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
11054 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
11055 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
11056 example.
11057 [Steve Henson]
11058
11059 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
11060 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
11061 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
11062 and any application specific purposes.
11063
11064 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
11065 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
11066 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
11067 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
11068 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
11069 if the certificate is self signed.
11070 [Steve Henson]
11071
11072 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
11073 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
11074 [Steve Henson]
11075
11076 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
11077 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
11078 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
11079 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
11080 [Steve Henson]
11081
11082 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
11083 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
11084 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
11085 Update documentation.
11086 [Steve Henson]
11087
11088 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
11089 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
11090 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
11091 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
11092 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
11093 [Steve Henson]
11094
11095 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
11096 for details.
11097 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
11098
11099 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
11100 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
11101 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
11102 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
11103 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
11104 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
11105 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
11106 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
11107 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
11108 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
11109
11110 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
11111
11112 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11113 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11114 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
11115 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
11116 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
11117
11118 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
11119 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
11120 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
11121 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
11122 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
11123 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
11124 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
11125 request additional information:
11126 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
11127 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
11128
11129 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
11130 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
11131 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
11132 options.
11133
11134 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
11135 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
11136
11137 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
11138 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
11139 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
11140
11141 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
11142 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
11143
11144 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
11145 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
11146 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
11147 algorithm.
11148 [Steve Henson]
11149
11150 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
11151 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
11152 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
11153
11154 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
11155 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
11156 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
11157 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
11158 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
11159 included in OpenSSL.
11160 [Steve Henson]
11161
11162 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
11163 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
11164 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
11165 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
11166 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
11167 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
11168 [Bodo Moeller]
11169
11170 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
11171 PKCS12 structure.
11172 [Steve Henson]
11173
11174 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
11175 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
11176 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
11177 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
11178 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
11179 structure.
11180 [Steve Henson]
11181
11182 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
11183 need initialising.
11184 [Steve Henson]
11185
11186 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
11187 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
11188 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
11189 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
11190 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
11191 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
11192 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
11193 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
11194 be maintained manually.
11195
11196 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
11197 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
11198 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
11199 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
11200 work because people forget to call this function]
11201 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11202 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11203 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11204 [Steve Henson]
11205
11206 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11207 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11208 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11209 should be discouraged from doing it.
11210 [Ben Laurie]
11211
11212 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11213 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11214 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11215 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11216 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11217 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11218 [Steve Henson]
11219
11220 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11221 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11222 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11223
11224 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11225 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11226 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11227
11228 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11229 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11230 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11231 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11232 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11233 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11234
11235 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11236 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11237 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11238
11239 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11240 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11241 and vice versa.
11242
11243 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11244 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11245 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11246 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11247 [Steve Henson]
11248
11249 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11250 [Steve Henson]
11251
11252 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11253 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11254 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11255 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11256 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11257 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11258 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11259 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11260 keys so we should be OK.
11261
11262 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11263 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11264 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11265 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11266 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11267 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11268 stay in the name of compatibility.
11269
11270 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11271 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11272 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11273
11274 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11275 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11276 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11277 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11278 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11279 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11280 supplied key).
11281 [Steve Henson]
11282
11283 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11284 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11285 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11286 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11287 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11288 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11289 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11290 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11291 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11292 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11293 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11294 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11295 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11296 [Steve Henson]
11297
11298 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11299 [Steve Henson]
11300
11301 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11302 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11303 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11304 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11305 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11306 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11307 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11308 openssl verify ss.pem
11309 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11310 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11311 is OK.
11312 [Steve Henson]
11313
11314 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11315 (and add it to external session representation).
11316 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11317 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11318 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11319 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11320 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11321 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11322 security holes.
11323 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11324
11325 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11326 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11327 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11328 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11329
11330 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11331 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11332 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11333 [Steve Henson]
11334
11335 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11336 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11337 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11338 code.
11339 [Steve Henson]
11340
11341 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11342 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11343 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11344
11345 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11346 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11347 certificate auxiliary information.
11348 [Steve Henson]
11349
11350 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11351 the 'enc' command.
11352 [Steve Henson]
11353
11354 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11355 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11356 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11357 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11358 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11359 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11360 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11361 [Richard Levitte]
11362
11363 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11364 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11365 [Steve Henson]
11366
11367 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11368 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11369 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11370 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11371 [Steve Henson]
11372
11373 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11374 [Steve Henson]
11375
11376 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11377 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11378 [Steve Henson]
11379
11380 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11381 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11382 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11383 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11384 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11385 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11386 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11387 using the new 'x509' options.
11388
11389 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11390 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11391 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11392 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11393 for all purposes.
11394 [Steve Henson]
11395
11396 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11397 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11398 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11399 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11400 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11401 [Mark Cox]
11402
11403 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11404 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11405 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11406 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11407 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11408 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11409 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11410 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11411 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11412 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11413 [Steve Henson]
11414
11415 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11416 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11417 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11418 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11419 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11420 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11421 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11422 [Steve Henson]
11423
11424 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11425 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11426 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11427 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11428 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11429 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11430 openssl.cnf for more info.
11431 [Steve Henson]
11432
11433 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11434 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11435 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11436 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11437 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11438 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11439 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11440 md should be large enough anyway.
11441 [Bodo Moeller]
11442
11443 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11444 for handling the random seed file.
11445
11446 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11447 ca,
11448 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11449 s_client,
11450 s_server,
11451 x509 (when signing).
11452 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11453 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11454 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11455
11456 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11457 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11458 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11459 that support '-rand'.
11460 [Bodo Moeller]
11461
11462 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11463 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11464 [Bodo Moeller]
11465
11466 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11467 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11468 [Bill Perry]
11469
11470 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11471 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11472 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11473 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11474 is suitable.
11475 [Steve Henson]
11476
11477 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11478 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11479 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11480 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11481 [Steve Henson]
11482
11483 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11484 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11485 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11486 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11487 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11488 print out all the purposes.
11489 [Steve Henson]
11490
11491 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
11492 functions.
11493 [Steve Henson]
11494
11495 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
11496 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
11497 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
11498 single function call.
11499 [Steve Henson]
11500
11501 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
11502 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
11503 [Andy Polyakov]
11504
11505 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
11506 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
11507 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
11508 [Steve Henson]
11509
11510 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
11511 when producing the local key id.
11512 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11513
11514 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
11515 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
11516 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
11517 "server.pem".
11518 [Steve Henson]
11519
11520 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
11521 a public key to be input or output. For example:
11522 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
11523 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
11524 [Steve Henson]
11525
11526 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
11527 in the message. This was handled by allowing
11528 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
11529 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
11530
11531 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
11532 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
11533 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
11534 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11535
11536 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
11537 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
11538 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
11539 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
11540 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
11541 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
11542 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
11543 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
11544 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
11545 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
11546 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
11547 trivial: move one line.
11548 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
11549
11550 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
11551 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
11552 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
11553 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
11554 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
11555 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
11556 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
11557 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
11558 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
11559 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
11560 with an event loop for example.
11561 [Steve Henson]
11562
11563 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
11564 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
11565 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
11566 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
11567 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
11568 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
11569 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
11570 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
11571 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
11572 [Steve Henson]
11573
11574 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
11575 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
11576 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
11577 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
11578 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
11579 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
11580 [Steve Henson]
11581
11582 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
11583 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
11584 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
11585 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
11586
11587 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
11588 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
11589 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
11590 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
11591 key generation.
11592 [Steve Henson]
11593
11594 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
11595 (still largely untested)
11596 [Bodo Moeller]
11597
11598 *) New function ASN1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
11599 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
11600 [Steve Henson]
11601
11602 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
11603 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
11604 [Steve Henson]
11605
11606 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
11607 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
11608 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
11609 [Bodo Moeller]
11610
11611 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
11612 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
11613 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
11614 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
11615 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
11616 [Steve Henson]
11617
11618 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
11619 [Andy Polyakov]
11620
11621 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
11622 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
11623 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
11624 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
11625 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
11626 in ca.
11627 [Steve Henson]
11628
11629 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
11630 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
11631 1.OU="Unit name 1"
11632 2.OU="Unit name 2"
11633 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
11634 [Steve Henson]
11635
11636 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
11637 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
11638 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
11639 are otherwise ignored at present.
11640 [Steve Henson]
11641
11642 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
11643 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
11644 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
11645 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
11646 copied until the next read.
11647 [Steve Henson]
11648
11649 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
11650 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
11651 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
11652 [Steve Henson]
11653
11654 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
11655 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
11656 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
11657 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
11658 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
11659 associated functions.
11660 [Steve Henson]
11661
11662 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
11663 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
11664 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
11665 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
11666 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
11667 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
11668 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
11669 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
11670 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
11671 memory BIOs.
11672 [Steve Henson]
11673
11674 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
11675 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
11676 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
11677 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
11678 [Bodo Moeller]
11679
11680 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
11681 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
11682 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
11683 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
11684 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
11685 functionality.
11686 [Steve Henson]
11687
11688 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
11689 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
11690 under Win32.
11691 [Steve Henson]
11692
11693 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
11694 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
11695 extensions to be obtained and added.
11696 [Steve Henson]
11697
11698 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
11699 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
11700 [Bodo Moeller]
11701
11702 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
11703
11704 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11705 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11706
11707 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
11708 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
11709
11710 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
11711 program.
11712 [Steve Henson]
11713
11714 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
11715 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
11716 DH parameters contain its length).
11717
11718 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
11719 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
11720 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
11721 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
11722 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
11723 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
11724 utter importance to use
11725 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11726 or
11727 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11728 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
11729 attacks may become possible!
11730 [Bodo Moeller]
11731
11732 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
11733 [Bodo Moeller]
11734
11735 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
11736 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
11737 [Steve Henson]
11738
11739 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
11740 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
11741 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
11742 or long name.
11743 [Steve Henson]
11744
11745 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
11746 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
11747 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
11748 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
11749 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
11750 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
11751 private key operations.
11752 [Steve Henson]
11753
11754 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
11755 [Andy Polyakov]
11756
11757 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
11758 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
11759 to
11760 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
11761 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
11762 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
11763 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
11764 the password callback is called.
11765 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
11766
11767 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
11768
11769 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
11770 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
11771 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
11772 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
11773 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
11774 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
11775 this will work.
11776
11777 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
11778 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
11779 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
11780 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
11781 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
11782 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
11783 [Bodo Moeller]
11784
11785 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
11786 [Andy Polyakov]
11787
11788 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
11789 delete an unused file.
11790 [Ulf Möller]
11791
11792 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
11793 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
11794 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
11795 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
11796 [Steve Henson]
11797
11798 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
11799 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
11800 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
11801 of an error.
11802 [Bodo Moeller]
11803
11804 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
11805 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
11806 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
11807
11808 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
11809 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
11810 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
11811 comparison" warnings.
11812 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
11813 [Steve Henson]
11814
11815 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
11816 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
11817 derived keys are printed to stderr.
11818 [Steve Henson]
11819
11820 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
11821 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
11822
11823 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
11824 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
11825
11826 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
11827 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
11828 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
11829
11830 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
11831 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
11832 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
11833 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
11834 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
11835 this bug.
11836 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
11837
11838 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
11839 The interface is as follows:
11840 Applications can use
11841 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
11842 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
11843 "off" is now the default.
11844 The library internally uses
11845 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
11846 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
11847 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
11848
11849 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
11850 even the default) are now avoided.
11851
11852 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
11853 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
11854 than just having a counter.
11855
11856 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
11857
11858 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
11859 extensions.
11860 [Bodo Moeller]
11861
11862 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
11863 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
11864 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
11865 Initial "mode" flags are:
11866
11867 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
11868 a single record has been written.
11869 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
11870 retries use the same buffer location.
11871 (But all of the contents must be
11872 copied!)
11873 [Bodo Moeller]
11874
11875 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
11876 worked.
11877
11878 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
11879 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
11880
11881 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
11882 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
11883 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
11884 [Steve Henson]
11885
11886 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
11887 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
11888 test programs.
11889 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
11890
11891 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
11892 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
11893 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
11894 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
11895 point to the end.
11896 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
11897 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
11898
11899 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
11900 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
11901 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
11902 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
11903 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
11904 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
11905 [Steve Henson]
11906
11907 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
11908 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
11909 necessary function names.
11910 [Steve Henson]
11911
11912 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
11913 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
11914 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
11915 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
11916 [Bodo Moeller]
11917
11918 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
11919 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
11920 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
11921 [Steve Henson]
11922
11923 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
11924 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
11925 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
11926 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
11927 such programs?)
11928 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
11929 need locks.
11930 [Bodo Moeller]
11931
11932 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
11933 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
11934 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
11935 [Bodo Moeller]
11936
11937 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
11938 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
11939 appropriate.
11940 [Bodo Moeller]
11941
11942 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
11943 for the encoded length.
11944 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
11945
11946 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
11947 [Steve Henson]
11948
11949 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
11950 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
11951 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
11952 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
11953 [Steve Henson]
11954
11955 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
11956 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
11957 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11958
11959 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
11960 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
11961 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
11962 unusual formatting.
11963 [Steve Henson]
11964
11965 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
11966 to use the new extension code.
11967 [Steve Henson]
11968
11969 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
11970 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
11971 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
11972 constant.
11973 [Steve Henson]
11974
11975 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
11976 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
11977 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
11978 [Bodo Moeller]
11979
11980 #if 0
11981 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
11982 [Ben Laurie]
11983 #else
11984 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
11985 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
11986 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
11987 #endif
11988
11989 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
11990 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
11991 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
11992 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
11993 [Ben Laurie]
11994
11995 *) DES library cleanups.
11996 [Ulf Möller]
11997
11998 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
11999 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
12000 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
12001 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
12002 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
12003 of v2.0.
12004 [Steve Henson]
12005
12006 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
12007 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
12008 [Bodo Moeller]
12009
12010 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
12011 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
12012 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
12013 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
12014 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
12015 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
12016 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
12017 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
12018 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
12019 [Steve Henson]
12020
12021 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
12022 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
12023 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
12024 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
12025 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
12026 value doesn't matter.
12027 [Steve Henson]
12028
12029 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
12030 support mutable.
12031 [Ben Laurie]
12032
12033 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
12034 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
12035 "linux-sparc" configuration.
12036 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
12037
12038 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
12039 [Ulf Möller]
12040
12041 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
12042 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
12043 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12044
12045 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
12046 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12047
12048 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
12049 [Ben Laurie]
12050
12051 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
12052 [Ben Laurie]
12053
12054 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
12055 [Ben Laurie]
12056
12057 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
12058 [Bodo Moeller]
12059
12060
12061 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
12062
12063 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
12064
12065 *) Updated some demos.
12066 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
12067
12068 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
12069 [Wu Zhigang]
12070
12071 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
12072 [Steve Henson]
12073
12074 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
12075 [Steve Henson]
12076
12077 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
12078 instead of using a fixed path.
12079 [Bodo Moeller]
12080
12081 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
12082 [Andy Polyakov]
12083
12084 *) Improvements for VMS support.
12085 [Richard Levitte]
12086
12087
12088 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
12089
12090 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
12091 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
12092 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12093
12094 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
12095 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
12096 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
12097 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
12098 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
12099 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
12100 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
12101 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
12102 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
12103 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
12104 [Steve Henson]
12105
12106 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
12107 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
12108 [Steve Henson]
12109
12110 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
12111 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
12112 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
12113 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
12114 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
12115
12116 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
12117 [Bodo Moeller]
12118
12119 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
12120 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
12121 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
12122 [Steve Henson]
12123
12124 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
12125 [Ben Laurie]
12126
12127 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
12128 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
12129 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
12130 key elements as negative integers.
12131 [Steve Henson]
12132
12133 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
12134 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12135
12136 *) VMS support.
12137 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
12138
12139 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
12140 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
12141 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
12142 [Steve Henson]
12143
12144 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
12145 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
12146 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
12147 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
12148 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
12149 [Bodo Moeller]
12150
12151 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
12152 [Ulf Möller]
12153
12154 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
12155 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
12156 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
12157 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12158
12159 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
12160 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
12161 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
12162
12163 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
12164 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
12165 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
12166 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
12167 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
12168 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
12169 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
12170 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
12171 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
12172
12173 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
12174 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
12175 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
12176 does not influence s as it used to.
12177
12178 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
12179 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
12180 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
12181 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
12182 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
12183 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
12184 [Bodo Moeller]
12185
12186 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
12187 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
12188 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
12189 key type.
12190 [Steve Henson]
12191
12192 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
12193 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
12194 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
12195 and 'x509').
12196 [Steve Henson]
12197
12198 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
12199 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
12200 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12201 extension option.
12202 [Steve Henson]
12203
12204 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12205 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12206 [Ben Laurie]
12207
12208 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12209 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12210
12211 *) Support Mingw32.
12212 [Ulf Möller]
12213
12214 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12215 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12216
12217 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12218 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12219
12220 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12221 [Ulf Möller]
12222
12223 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12224 [Anonymous]
12225
12226 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12227 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12228
12229 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12230 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12231 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12232 DER-encoded.)
12233 [Bodo Moeller]
12234
12235 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12236 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12237 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12238 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12239 now it really counts the depth.
12240 [Bodo Moeller]
12241
12242 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12243 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12244 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12245 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12246 didn't match the private key).
12247
12248 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12249 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12250 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12251 [Bodo Moeller]
12252
12253 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12254 [Ulf Möller]
12255
12256 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12257 David Harris.
12258 [Bodo Moeller]
12259
12260 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12261 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12262 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12263 [Bodo Moeller]
12264
12265 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12266 [Bodo Moeller]
12267
12268 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12269 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12270 such as /usr/local/bin.
12271 [Bodo Moeller]
12272
12273 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12274 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12275
12276 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12277 [Ulf Möller]
12278
12279 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12280 extension adding in x509 utility.
12281 [Steve Henson]
12282
12283 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12284 [Ulf Möller]
12285
12286 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12287 prototypes.
12288 [Steve Henson]
12289
12290 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12291 [Ulf Möller]
12292
12293 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12294 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12295 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12296 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12297 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12298 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12299 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
12300 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12301 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12302 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12303 [Steve Henson]
12304
12305 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12306 [Bodo Moeller]
12307
12308 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12309 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12310 [Bodo Moeller]
12311
12312 *) Fix some race conditions.
12313 [Bodo Moeller]
12314
12315 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12316 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12317 [Steve Henson]
12318
12319 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12320 [Ulf Möller]
12321
12322 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12323 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12324 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12325 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12326
12327 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12328 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12329
12330 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12331 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12332 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12333
12334 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12335 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12336
12337 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12338 [Ulf Möller]
12339
12340 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12341 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12342
12343 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12344 [Ulf Möller]
12345
12346 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12347 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12348
12349 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12350 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12351 [Steve Henson]
12352
12353 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12354 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12355 [Ben Laurie]
12356
12357 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12358 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12359 [Steve Henson]
12360
12361 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12362 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12363 [Steve Henson]
12364
12365 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12366 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12367 [Steve Henson]
12368
12369 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12370 support typesafe stack.
12371 [Steve Henson]
12372
12373 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12374 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12375
12376 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12377 old X509V3 handling code.
12378 [Steve Henson]
12379
12380 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12381 [Ulf Möller]
12382
12383 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12384 [Bodo Moeller]
12385
12386 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12387 [Ben Laurie]
12388
12389 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12390 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12391
12392 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12393 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12394 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12395 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12396 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12397 [Ben Laurie]
12398
12399 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12400 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12401 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12402 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12403 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12404
12405 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12406 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12407 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12408 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12409
12410 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12411 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12412 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12413 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12414
12415 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12416 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12417 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12418 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12419 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12420 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12421 [Bodo Moeller]
12422
12423 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12424 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12425 [Bodo Moeller]
12426
12427 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12428 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12429 [Ulf Möller]
12430
12431 *) Tweaks to Configure
12432 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12433
12434 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12435 yet...
12436 [Steve Henson]
12437
12438 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12439 [Ulf Möller]
12440
12441 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12442 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12443 [Ulf Möller]
12444
12445 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12446 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12447 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12448 [Bodo Moeller]
12449
12450 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12451 [Bodo Moeller]
12452
12453 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12454 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12455 [Steve Henson]
12456
12457 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12458 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12459 to library startup routines.
12460 [Steve Henson]
12461
12462 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12463 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12464 codes along the way.
12465 [Steve Henson]
12466
12467 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12468 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12469 objects to objects.h
12470 [Steve Henson]
12471
12472 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12473 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12474 [Steve Henson]
12475
12476 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12477 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12478
12479 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12480 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12481 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12482
12483 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12484 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12485 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12486
12487 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12488 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12489 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12490
12491
12492 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
12493
12494 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
12495 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
12496 [Ben Laurie]
12497
12498 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
12499 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
12500 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
12501 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
12502 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
12503
12504 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
12505 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
12506 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
12507 document.
12508 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12509
12510 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
12511 Malloc, Free.
12512 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
12513
12514 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
12515 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12516
12517 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
12518 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
12519 if someone would make that last step automatic.
12520 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
12521
12522 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
12523 [Ben Laurie]
12524
12525 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
12526 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
12527 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
12528 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
12529 [Steve Henson]
12530
12531 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
12532 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
12533 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
12534 [Steve Henson]
12535
12536 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
12537 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
12538 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
12539 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
12540 installed as `perl').
12541 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12542
12543 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
12544 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12545
12546 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
12547 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
12548 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
12549 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
12550 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
12551 [Steve Henson]
12552
12553 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
12554 [Ben Laurie]
12555
12556 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
12557 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
12558 is horrible: I feel ill....
12559 [Steve Henson]
12560
12561 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
12562 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
12563 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
12564 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
12565 [Steve Henson]
12566
12567 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
12568 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12569
12570 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
12571 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
12572 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
12573 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12574
12575 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
12576 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
12577 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
12578 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
12579 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
12580 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
12581 openssl_bio.xs.
12582 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12583
12584 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
12585 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12586
12587 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
12588 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
12589
12590 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
12591 [Ben Laurie]
12592
12593 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
12594 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
12595 in CRLs.
12596 [Steve Henson]
12597
12598 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
12599 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
12600 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
12601 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
12602 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
12603 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
12604 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
12605 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
12606 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
12607 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
12608 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12609
12610 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
12611 [Ben Laurie]
12612
12613 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
12614 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
12615 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
12616 for linking it into DSOs.
12617 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12618
12619 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
12620 Fixed.
12621 [Ben Laurie]
12622
12623 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
12624 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
12625 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
12626 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
12627 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
12628 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12629
12630 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
12631 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
12632 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
12633 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
12634 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
12635 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
12636 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12637
12638 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
12639 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
12640 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
12641 encryption.
12642 [Ben Laurie]
12643
12644 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
12645 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
12646 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
12647 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
12648 [Steve Henson]
12649
12650 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
12651 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
12652 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
12653 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
12654 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
12655 field as blank.
12656 [Steve Henson]
12657
12658 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
12659 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
12660 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
12661 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
12662 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12663
12664 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
12665 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
12666 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12667
12668 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
12669 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12670
12671 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
12672 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
12673 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
12674 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
12675 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
12676 [Steve Henson]
12677
12678 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
12679 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
12680 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
12681 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
12682 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
12683 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
12684 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
12685 [Ben Laurie]
12686
12687 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
12688 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
12689 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
12690 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
12691 [Ben Laurie]
12692
12693 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
12694 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
12695
12696 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
12697 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
12698 [Steve Henson]
12699
12700 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
12701 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
12702 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
12703 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
12704 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
12705 (e.g. s_server).
12706 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
12707 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
12708 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
12709 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
12710 no way to reconfigure them.
12711 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
12712 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
12713 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
12714 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
12715 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
12716 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12717
12718 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
12719 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
12720 recognized by the users.
12721 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12722
12723 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
12724 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
12725 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
12726 already masked variable.
12727 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12728
12729 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
12730 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12731
12732 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
12733 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
12734 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
12735 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12736
12737 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
12738 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
12739 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12740
12741 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
12742 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
12743 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
12744 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
12745 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
12746 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
12747 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
12748 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
12749 now, too.
12750 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12751
12752 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
12753 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
12754 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12755
12756 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
12757 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
12758 config file.
12759 [Steve Henson]
12760
12761 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
12762 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12763
12764 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
12765 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
12766 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
12767 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
12768 [Ben Laurie]
12769
12770 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
12771 [Steve Henson]
12772
12773 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
12774 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12775
12776 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
12777 [Ben Laurie]
12778
12779 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
12780 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
12781 [Steve Henson]
12782
12783 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
12784 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
12785 [Steve Henson]
12786
12787 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
12788 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
12789 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
12790 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
12791 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
12792 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
12793 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
12794 Ben Laurie]
12795
12796 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
12797 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12798
12799 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
12800 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
12801 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
12802 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
12803 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12804
12805 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
12806 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
12807 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
12808 [Steve Henson]
12809
12810 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
12811 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
12812 an example.
12813 [Steve Henson]
12814
12815 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
12816 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
12817 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12818
12819 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
12820 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
12821 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
12822 build instructions.
12823 [Steve Henson]
12824
12825 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
12826 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
12827 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
12828 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
12829 [Steve Henson]
12830
12831 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
12832 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
12833 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
12834 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
12835 [Ben Laurie]
12836
12837 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
12838 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
12839 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
12840 so it wasn't spotted.
12841 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
12842
12843 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
12844 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
12845 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
12846 vectors if you have them.
12847 [Ben Laurie]
12848
12849 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
12850 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
12851 [Ben Laurie]
12852
12853 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
12854 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
12855 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
12856 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
12857 If you do a:
12858 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
12859 it will update them.
12860 [Steve Henson]
12861
12862 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
12863 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
12864 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
12865 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
12866 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
12867 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
12868 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
12869 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12870
12871 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
12872 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
12873 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
12874 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
12875 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
12876 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
12877 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
12878 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
12879 the crypto/md/ stuff).
12880 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12881
12882 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
12883 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
12884 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
12885 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
12886 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
12887 [Steve Henson]
12888
12889 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
12890 INTEGER code.
12891 [Steve Henson]
12892
12893 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
12894 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12895
12896 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
12897 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12898
12899 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
12900 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
12901 [Ben Laurie]
12902
12903 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
12904 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
12905
12906 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
12907 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
12908
12909 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
12910 [Steve Henson]
12911
12912 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
12913 few typos.
12914 [Steve Henson]
12915
12916 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
12917 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
12918 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
12919 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12920
12921 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12922 [Steve Henson]
12923
12924 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12925 [Steve Henson]
12926
12927 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
12928 [Steve Henson]
12929
12930 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
12931 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
12932 [Steve Henson]
12933
12934 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
12935 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
12936 CA extensions.
12937 [Steve Henson]
12938
12939 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
12940 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
12941 [Steve Henson]
12942
12943 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
12944 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
12945 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
12946 [Steve Henson]
12947
12948 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
12949 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
12950 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
12951 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
12952 properly to be processed.
12953 [Steve Henson]
12954
12955 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
12956 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
12957 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
12958 [Ben Laurie]
12959
12960 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
12961 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
12962
12963 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
12964 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
12965 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
12966 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
12967 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
12968 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
12969 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
12970 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
12971 or delete all the .err files.
12972 [Steve Henson]
12973
12974 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
12975 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
12976 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
12977 to regenerate it if needed.
12978 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
12979 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
12980
12981 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
12982 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12983
12984 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
12985 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
12986 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
12987 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
12988 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
12989 [Steve Henson]
12990
12991 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
12992 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12993
12994 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
12995 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12996
12997 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
12998 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
12999 error, but didn't set one).
13000 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13001
13002 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
13003 [Ben Laurie]
13004
13005 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
13006 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
13007 [Steve Henson]
13008
13009 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
13010 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
13011
13012 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
13013 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
13014 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
13015 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
13016 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
13017 OID is not part of the table.
13018 [Steve Henson]
13019
13020 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
13021 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
13022 [Ben Laurie]
13023
13024 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
13025 [Ben Laurie]
13026
13027 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
13028 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
13029 was "1234").
13030 [Steve Henson]
13031
13032 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
13033 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
13034
13035 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
13036 NULL pointers.
13037 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13038
13039 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
13040 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13041
13042 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
13043 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13044
13045 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
13046 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13047
13048 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
13049 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
13050 [Ben Laurie]
13051
13052 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
13053 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
13054 [Steve Henson]
13055
13056 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
13057 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13058
13059 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
13060 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13061
13062 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
13063 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13064
13065 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
13066 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13067
13068 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
13069 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
13070 unused in the certificate verification process.
13071 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13072
13073 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
13074 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
13075 [Steve Henson]
13076
13077 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
13078 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
13079 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
13080
13081 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
13082 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
13083 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
13084 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
13085 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
13086
13087 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
13088 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
13089 [Steve Henson]
13090
13091 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
13092 [Steve Henson]
13093
13094 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
13095 [Paul Sutton]
13096
13097 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
13098 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
13099
13100 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
13101 [Ben Laurie]
13102
13103 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
13104 [Ben Laurie]
13105
13106 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
13107 [Ben Laurie]
13108
13109 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
13110 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
13111 other error libraries.
13112 [Steve Henson]
13113
13114 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
13115 [Steve Henson]
13116
13117 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
13118 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
13119 be read in.
13120 [Steve Henson]
13121
13122 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
13123 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
13124 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
13125 the new set of documentation files.
13126 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13127
13128 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
13129 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
13130 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
13131 number of arguments.
13132 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
13133
13134 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
13135 [Ben Laurie]
13136
13137 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
13138 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
13139 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13140
13141 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
13142 [Ben Laurie]
13143
13144 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
13145 nextstep
13146 ncr-scde
13147 unixware-2.0
13148 unixware-2.0-pentium
13149 sco5-cc.
13150 [Ben Laurie]
13151
13152 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
13153 before they are needed.
13154 [Ben Laurie]
13155
13156 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
13157 [Ben Laurie]
13158
13159
13160 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
13161
13162 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
13163 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
13164 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13165
13166 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
13167 [Paul Sutton]
13168
13169 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
13170 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
13171 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13172
13173 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
13174 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
13175 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
13176
13177 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
13178 when "ssleay" is still not found.
13179 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13180
13181 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
13182 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
13183
13184 *) Updated the README file.
13185 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13186
13187 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
13188 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
13189 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13190
13191 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
13192 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
13193 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13194
13195 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
13196 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
13197 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
13198 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
13199 o removed obsolete TODO file
13200 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
13201 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13202
13203 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
13204 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
13205 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
13206 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
13207 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
13208 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
13209 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13210
13211 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
13212 [Mark J. Cox]
13213
13214 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
13215 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
13216 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
13217 summer 1998.
13218 [The OpenSSL Project]
13219
13220
13221 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
13222
13223 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
13224 [Eric A. Young]
13225
13226 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
13227 [Eric A. Young]
13228
13229 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
13230 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
13231 [Eric A. Young]
13232
13233 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
13234 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
13235 available).
13236 [Eric A. Young]
13237
13238 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
13239 binary structures
13240 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
13241
13242 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
13243 [Eric A. Young]
13244
13245 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
13246 [Eric A. Young]
13247
13248 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
13249 [Eric A. Young]
13250
13251 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
13252 [Eric A. Young]
13253
13254 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
13255 [Eric A. Young]
13256
13257 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
13258 [Eric A. Young]
13259
13260 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
13261 [Eric A. Young]
13262
13263 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
13264 [Eric A. Young]
13265
13266 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
13267 [Eric A. Young]
13268
13269 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
13270 [Eric A. Young]
13271
13272 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
13273 [Eric A. Young]
13274
13275 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
13276 [Eric A. Young]
13277
13278 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
13279 [Eric A. Young]
13280
13281 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
13282 [Eric A. Young]
13283
13284 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
13285 [Eric A. Young]
13286
13287 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
13288 [Eric A. Young]
13289
13290 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
13291 [Eric A. Young]
13292
13293 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
13294 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
13295 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
13296 [Eric A. Young]
13297
13298 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
13299 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
13300 [Eric A. Young]
13301
13302 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
13303 [Eric A. Young]
13304
13305 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
13306 [Eric A. Young]
13307
13308 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
13309 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
