4
5 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7 [xx XXX 2001]
6
7 Both OpenSSL 0.9.6a (bugfix release, 5 Apr 2001) and OpenSSL 0.9.7
8 are based on OpenSSL 0.9.6.
9 Change log entries are tagged as follows:
10 -) applies to 0.9.6a (/0.9.6b) only
11 *) applies to 0.9.6a (/0.9.6b) and 0.9.7
12 +) applies to 0.9.7 only
13
14 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
15 [Andy Polyakov]
16
17 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
18 an error message in this case.
19 [Lutz Jaenicke]
20
21 +) Added the OS2-EMX target.
22 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
23
24 +) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
25 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
26 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
27 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
28 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
29 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
30 [Steve Henson]
31
32 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
33 [Steve Henson]
34
35 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
36 positive and less than q.
37 [Bodo Moeller]
38
39 +) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
40 and with pssibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
41 [Richard Levitte]
42
43 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
44 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
45 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
46 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
47
48 +) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
49 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
50 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
51 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
52 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
53 Addapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
54 callback.
55 [Richard Levitte]
56
57 +) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
58 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
59 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
60 and interrupts/cancelations.
61 [Richard Levitte]
62
63 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
64 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
65 that itself.
66 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
67
68 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
69 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
70 [Bodo Moeller]
71
72 +) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
73 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
74 [Steve Henson]
75
76 *) Fix OAEP check.
77 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
78
79 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
80 RSA encryption was accidentily removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
81 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
82 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
83 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
84 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
85 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
86 paper.)
87
88 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
89 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
90 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
91 detect the supposedly ignored error.
92
93 Both problems are now fixed.
94 [Bodo Moeller]
95
96 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
97 (previously it was 1024).
98 [Bodo Moeller]
99
100 +) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
101 tidy up some unecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
102 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
103
104 +) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
105 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
106 kind of callback.
107 [Richard Levitte]
108
109 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
110 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
111 [Steve Henson]
112
113 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
114 [Steve Henson]
115
116 +) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
117 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
118 than this minimum value is recommended.
119 [Lutz Jaenicke]
120
121 +) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
122 that are easily reachable.
123 [Richard Levitte]
124
125 +) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
126 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
127
128 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
129
130 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
131 delcare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
132 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
133 needed for static libraries under Win32.
134 [Steve Henson]
135
136 +) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
137 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
138 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
139 [Steve Henson]
140
141 +) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
142 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
143 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
144 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
145 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
146 internally such as S/MIME.
147
148 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
149 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
150 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
151
152 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
153 applications.
154 [Steve Henson]
155
156 +) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
157 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
158 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
159 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
160
161 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
162
163 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
164
165 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
166 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
167 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
168 handling.
169 [Steve Henson]
170
171 +) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
172 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
173 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
174 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
175 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
176 a window system and the like.
177 [Richard Levitte]
178
179 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
180 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
181 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
182 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
183 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
184 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
185 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
186 environment variables.
187
188 +) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
189 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
190 [Geoff]
191
192 +) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
193 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
194 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
195 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
196 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
197 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
198 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
199 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
200 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
201 ENGINE structure.
202 [Geoff]
203
204 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
205 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
206 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
207 [Steve Henson]
208
209 +) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
210 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
211 tag cache.
212 [Steve Henson]
213
214 +) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
215 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
216 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
217 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
218 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
219 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
220 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
221 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
222 [Geoff]
223
224 +) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
225 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
226 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
227 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
228 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
229 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
230 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
231 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
232 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
233 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
234 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
235 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
236 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
237 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
238 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
239 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
240 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
241 [Geoff]
242
243 +) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
244 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
245 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
246 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
247 internal engine_int.h header.
248 [Geoff]
249
250 +) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
251 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
252 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
253 modify their own ones).
254 [Geoff]
255
256 +) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
257 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
258 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
259 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
260 later on via ctrl() commands.
261 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
262 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
263 structural references.
264 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
265 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
266 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
267 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
268 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
269 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
270 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
271 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
272 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
273 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
274 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
275 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
276 [Geoff]
277
278 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
279 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
280 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
281 [Bodo Moeller]
282
283 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
284 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
285 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
286 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
287 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegaly release the lock
288 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
289 [Bodo Moeller]
290
291 +) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
292 to the algorithm using long divison. The binary algorithm can be
293 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
294 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
295 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
296 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
297 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
298 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
299 [Bodo Moeller]
300
301 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
302 versions of 'test'.
303 [Bodo Moeller]
304
305 -) OpenSSL 0.9.6a released [5 Apr 2001]
306
307 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
308 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
309
310 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
311 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
312 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
313 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
314 CygWin.
315 [Richard Levitte]
316
317 +) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
318 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
319 [Steve Henson]
320
321 -) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
322 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
323 amount of data available.
324 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
325 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
326
327 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
328 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
329 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
330 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
331 [Bodo Moeller]
332
333 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
334 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
335 and UnixWare.
336 [Richard Levitte]
337
338 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
339 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
340 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
341 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
342 [Ulf Moeller]
343
344 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
345 [Andy Polyakov]
346
347 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
348 [Richard Levitte]
349
350 -) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
351 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
352 [Steve Henson]
353 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
354
355 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
356 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
357 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
358 (but broken) behaviour.
359 [Steve Henson]
360
361 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
362 it when found.
363 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
364
365 +) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
366 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
367 [Steve Henson]
368
369 +) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
370 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
371 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
372 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
373 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
374 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
375 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
376 [Steve Henson]
377
378 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
379 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
380 [Bodo Moeller]
381
382 +) Function EC_POINTs_mul for simultaneous scalar multiplication
383 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points, optionally
384 including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP.
385 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
386 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
387 generator).
388 [Bodo Moeller]
389
390 +) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
391
392 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
393 operations and provides various method functions that can also
394 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
395
396 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
397 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
398
399 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
400 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
401 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
402
403 +) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
404 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
405
406 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
407 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
408
409 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
410
411 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
412 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
413 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
414 [Bodo Moeller]
415
416 +) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
417 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
418 [Richard Levitte]
419
420 +) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
421 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
422 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
423 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
424 is 40 of more characters long.
425 [Steve Henson]
426
427 +) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
428 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
429 pointers.
430 [Steve Henson]
431
432 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
433 did not exist.
434 [Bodo Moeller]
435
436 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
437 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
438
439 +) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
440 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
441 [Bodo Moeller]
442
443 +) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
444 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
445 might.
446 [Steve Henson]
447
448 +) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
449
450 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
451 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
452
453 ASN1 error codes
454 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
455 ...
456 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
457 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
458 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
459 ...
460 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
461 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
462
463 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
464 [Bodo Moeller]
465
466 +) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
467 suffices.
468 [Bodo Moeller]
469
470 +) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
471 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
472 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
473 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
474 and
475 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
476
477 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
478 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
479
480 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
481 [Richard Levitte]
482
483 +) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
484 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
485 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
486 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
487 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
488 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
489
490 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
491 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
492
493 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
494 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
495
496 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
497 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
498
499 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
500 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
501 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
502 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
503
504 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
505 header file everywere where the defined globals are used.
506
507 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
508 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bt different.
509
510 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
511 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
512 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
513 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
514 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
515 [Richard Levitte]
516
517 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
518 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
519 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
520
521 +) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
522 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
523 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
524 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
525 [Steve Henson]
526
527 +) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
528 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
529 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
530 trust settings.
531 [Steve Henson]
532
533 +) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
534 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
535 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
536 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
537 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock innacuracy. Instead
538 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
539 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
540 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
541 ocsp utility.
542 [Steve Henson]
543
544 +) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
545 OID rather that just UNKOWN.
546 [Steve Henson]
547
548 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
549 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
550 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
551 [Steve Henson]
552
553 +) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
554 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
555 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
556 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
557 [Steve Henson]
558
559 +) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
560 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
561 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
562 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
563 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
564 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
565 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
566 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
567 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
568 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
569 [Steve Henson]
570
571 +) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
572 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
573 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
574 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
575 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
576 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
577 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
578 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
579
580 +) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse prprocessor conditionals
581 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
582 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
583 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
584 [Richard Levitte]
585
586 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
587 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
588 [Ulf Moeller]
589
590 +) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
591 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
592 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
593 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
594 opensslconf.h.
595 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
596 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
597 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
598 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
599 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
600 what is available.
601 [Richard Levitte]
602
603 +) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
604 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
605 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
606 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
607 auto incremented.
608 [Steve Henson]
609
610 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
611 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
612
613 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
614
615 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
616
617 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
618 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
619 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
620 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
621 [Bodo Moeller]
622
623 +) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
624 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
625 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
626 [Steve Henson]
627
628 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
629 [Lutz Jaenicke]
630
631 +) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
632 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
633 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
634 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
635 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
636 [Steve Henson]
637
638 +) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
639 [Steve Henson]
640
641 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
642 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
643 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
644
645 +) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
646 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
647 option to ocsp utility.
648 [Steve Henson]
649
650 +) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
651 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
652 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
653 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
654 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
655 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
656 the request is nonce-less.
657 [Steve Henson]
658
659 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
660 was empty.
661 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
662
663 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
664 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
665 but the code is actually correct.
666 [Steve Henson]
667
668 +) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
669 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
670 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
671 [Bodo Moeller]
672
673 +) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
674 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
675 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
676 [Steve Henson]
677
678 +) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
679 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
680 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
681 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
682 [Lutz Jaenicke]
683
684 +) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
685 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
686 appear to exist.
687 [Steve Henson]
688
689 +) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
690 additional certificates supplied.
691 [Steve Henson]
692
693 +) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
694 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
695 signature against.
696 [Richard Levitte]
697
698 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
699 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
700 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
701 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
702 and leaves the highest bit random.
703 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
704
705 +) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
706 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
707 AES OIDs. Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in the "AES Ciphersuites
708 for TLS" draft-ietf-tls-ciphersuite-03.txt.
709 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
710
711 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
712 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
713 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
714 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
715 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
716 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
717 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
718 [Bodo Moeller]
719
720 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
721 [Ulf Moeller]
722
723 +) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
724 request to response.
725 [Steve Henson]
726
727 +) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
728 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
729 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
730 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
731 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
732 reponse and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
733 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
734 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
735 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
736 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
737 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
738 [Steve Henson]
739
740 +) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
741 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
742 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests tha public_key
743 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
744 [Steve Henson]
745
746 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
747 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
748 [Steve Henson]
749
750 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
751 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
752 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
753 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
754 headers.
755 [Richard Levitte]
756
757 +) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
758 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
759
760 +) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
761 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
762 reponse then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
763 [Steve Henson]
764
765 -) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
766 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
767 and break the signature.
768 [Steve Henson]
769 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
770
771 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
772 DH ciphersuites.
773 [Steve Henson]
774
775 +) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
776 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
777 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
778 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
779 <support@securenetterm.com>]
780
781 +) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
782 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
783 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
784 [Steve Henson]
785
786 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
787 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
788 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
789 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
790 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
791 [Bodo Moeller]
792
793 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
794 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
795
796 *) ./config script fixes.
797 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
798
799 +) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
800 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
801 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
802 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
803 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
804 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
805 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
806 <support@securenetterm.com>]
807
808 +) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
809 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
810 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
811 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
812 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
813 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
814 [Steve Henson]
815
816 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
817 [Bodo Moeller]
818
819 +) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
820 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
821 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
822 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
823 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
824 printout format cleaned up.
825 [Steve Henson]
826
827 +) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
828 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
829 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
830 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
831 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
832 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
833 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
834 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
835 [Steve Henson]
836
837 +) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
838 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
839 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
840 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
841 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
842 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
843 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
844 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
845 [Steve Henson]
846
847 +) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
848 extensions from a separate configuration file.
849 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
850 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
851 section to use.
852 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
853
854 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
855 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
856 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
857 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
858 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
859
860 +) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
861 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
862 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
863 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
864 [Steve Henson]
865
866 +) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
867 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
868 the given serial number (according to the index file).
869 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
870 in the index file.
871 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
872
873 +) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
874 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
875 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
876 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
877
878 +) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
879 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
880
881 +) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
882 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
883 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
884 [Steve Henson]
885
886 +) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
887 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
888 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
889 [Bodo Moeller]
890
891 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
892 call failed, free the DSA structure.
893 [Bodo Moeller]
894
895 +) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
896 file name and line number information in additional arguments
897 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
898 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
899 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
900 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
901 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
902 functions are provided:
903
904 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
905 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
906 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
907 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
908
909 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
910 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
911 extended allocation function is enabled.
912 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
913 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
914 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
915
916 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
917 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
918 [Steve Henson]
919
920 +) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
921 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
922 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
923 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
924 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
925 [Geoff Thorpe]
926
927 +) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
928 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
929 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
930 be queried.
931 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
932 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
933 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
934 [Lutz Jaenicke]
935
936 +) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
937 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
938 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
939 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
940 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
941 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
942 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
943 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
944 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
945 [Richard Levitte]
946
947 +) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
948 provide utility functions which an application needing
949 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
950 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
951 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
952
953 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
954 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
955 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
956 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
957 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
958 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
959 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
960 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
961 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
962
963 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
964 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
965 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
966 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
967 [Steve Henson]
968
969 +) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
970 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
971 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
972 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
973 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
974 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
975 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
976 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
977 will be added elsewhere.
978 [Steve Henson]
979
980 +) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
981 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
982 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
983 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
984 [Steve Henson]
985
986 +) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
987 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
988 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
989 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
990 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
991 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
992 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
993 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
994 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
995 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
996 to produce the required SET OF.
997 [Steve Henson]
998
999 +) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
1000 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
1001 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
1002 [Richard Levitte]
1003
1004 +) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
1005 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
1006 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
1007 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
1008 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
1009 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
1010 [Steve Henson]
1011
1012 +) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
1013 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
1014 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
1015 [Steve Henson]
1016
1017 +) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
1018 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
1019 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
1020 [Richard Levitte]
1021
1022 +) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
1023 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
1024 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
1025 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
1026 code will still work when these eventually go away.
1027 [Steve Henson]
1028
1029 +) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
1030 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
1031 [Steve Henson]
1032
1033 +) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
1034 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
1035 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
1036 certifcates and CRLs.
1037 [Steve Henson]
1038
1039 +) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
1040 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
1041 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
1042 [Steve Henson]
1043
1044 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
1045 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
1046 when writing a 32767 byte record.
1047 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
1048
1049 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
1050 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
1051
1052 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
1053 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
1054 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
1055 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
1056 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
1057
1058 +) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
1059 entries for variables.
1060 [Steve Henson]
1061
1062 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
1063 [Bodo Moeller]
1064
1065 +) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
1066 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
1067 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
1068 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
1069 [Bodo Moeller]
1070
1071 +) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
1072 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
1073 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
1074 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
1075 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
1076 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
1077 [Bodo Moeller]
1078
1079 +) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
1080 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
1081
1082 +) Move common extension printing code to new function
1083 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
1084 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
1085 [Steve Henson]
1086
1087 +) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
1088 print routines.
1089 [Steve Henson]
1090
1091 +) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
1092 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
1093 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
1094 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
1095 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
1096 order did not reflect the encoded order.
1097 [Steve Henson]
1098
1099 +) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
1100 [Steve Henson]
1101
1102 +) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
1103 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
1104 for now but they will eventually go away.
1105 [Steve Henson]
1106
1107 +) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
1108 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
1109 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
1110 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
1111 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
1112 has also been converted to the new form.
1113 [Steve Henson]
1114
1115 +) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
1116 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
1117 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
1118 for negative moduli.
1119 [Bodo Moeller]
1120
1121 +) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
1122 of not touching the result's sign bit.
1123 [Bodo Moeller]
1124
1125 +) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
1126 set.
1127 [Bodo Moeller]
1128
1129 +) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
1130 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
1131 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
1132 type-specific callbacks.
1133 [Geoff Thorpe]
1134
1135 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
1136 [Ulf Möller]
1137
1138 +) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
1139 RFC 2712.
1140 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
1141 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
1142
1143 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
1144 [Ulf Möller]
1145
1146 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
1147 [Bodo Moeller]
1148
1149 +) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
1150 in sections depending on the subject.
1151 [Richard Levitte]
1152
1153 +) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
1154 Windows.
1155 [Richard Levitte]
1156
1157 +) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
1158 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
1159 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
1160 be handled deterministically).
1161 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1162
1163 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
1164 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
1165 [Bodo Moeller]
1166
1167 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
1168 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
1169 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
1170 result of the server certificate verification.)
1171 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1172
1173 +) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
1174 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
1175 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
1176 [Bodo Moeller]
1177
1178 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
1179 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
1180 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
1181 [Bodo Moeller]
1182
1183 *) Fix SSL_peek:
1184 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
1185 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
1186 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
1187 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
1188 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
1189 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
1190 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
1191 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
1192 [Bodo Moeller]
1193
1194 +) New function BN_kronecker.
1195 [Bodo Moeller]
1196
1197 +) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
1198 positive unless both parameters are zero.
1199 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
1200 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
1201 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
1202 [Bodo Moeller]
1203
1204 +) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
1205 sign of the number in question.
1206
1207 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
1208
1209 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
1210 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
1211 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
1212 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
1213 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
1214 [Bodo Moeller]
1215
1216 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
1217 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
1218 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
1219 happening the other way round.
1220 [Geoff Thorpe]
1221
1222 +) New function BN_swap.
1223 [Bodo Moeller]
1224
1225 +) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
1226 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
1227 results on negative inputs.
1228 [Bodo Moeller]
1229
1230 +) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
1231 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
1232 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
1233 [Bodo Moeller]
1234
1235 +) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
1236 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
1237 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
1238 and add new functions:
1239
1240 BN_nnmod
1241 BN_mod_sqr
1242 BN_mod_add
1243 BN_mod_add_quick
1244 BN_mod_sub
1245 BN_mod_sub_quick
1246 BN_mod_lshift1
1247 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
1248 BN_mod_lshift
1249 BN_mod_lshift_quick
1250
1251 These functions always generate non-negative results.
1252
1253 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
1254 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
1255
1256 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
1257 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
1258 be reduced modulo m.
1259 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1260
1261 +) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1262 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1263 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1264 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1265 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1266 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1267 differing sizes.
1268 [Richard Levitte]
1269
1270 +) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
1271 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
1272 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
1273 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
1274 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
1275
1276 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
1277 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
1278 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
1279 cause any problems.
1280 [Bodo Moeller]
1281
1282 +) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
1283 [Richard Levitte]
1284
1285 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
1286 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
1287 [Bodo Moeller]
1288
1289 +) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
1290 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
1291 [Richard Levitte]
1292
1293 +) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
1294 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
1295 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
1296 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
1297 time)
1298 [Richard Levitte]
1299
1300 +) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
1301 [Richard Levitte]
1302
1303 +) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
1304 [Richard Levitte]
1305
1306 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
1307 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
1308 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
1309 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
1310 [Richard Levitte]
1311
1312 +) Add the following functions:
1313
1314 ENGINE_load_cswift()
1315 ENGINE_load_chil()
1316 ENGINE_load_atalla()
1317 ENGINE_load_nuron()
1318 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
1319
1320 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
1321 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
1322 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
1323 libraries unless it's really needed.
1324
1325 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
1326 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
1327 declarations (they differed!).
1328 [Richard Levitte]
1329
1330 +) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
1331 [Richard Levitte]
1332
1333 +) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
1334 [Richard Levitte]
1335
1336 +) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
1337 [Bodo Moeller]
1338
1339 +) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
1340 identity, and test if they are actually available.
1341 [Richard Levitte]
1342
1343 +) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
1344 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
1345
1346 +) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
1347 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
1348 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1349
1350 +) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
1351 little-endian MIPS.
1352 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
1353
1354 +) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
1355 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
1356 [Richard Levitte]
1357
1358 +) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
1359 [Richard Levitte]
1360
1361 +) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
1362 [Richard Levitte]
1363
1364 +) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
1365 [Ben Laurie]
1366
1367 +) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
1368 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
1369 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
1370
1371 +) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
1372 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
1373 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
1374 different shared library filenames on each system.
1375 [Geoff Thorpe]
1376
1377 +) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
1378 [Richard Levitte]
1379
1380 +) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX
1381 [Richard Levitte]
1382
1383 +) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
1384 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
1385 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
1386 of two sections.
1387 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
1388
1389 +) NCONF changes.
1390 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
1391 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
1392 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
1393 binary backward compatibility.
1394 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
1395 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
1396 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
1397 LDAP server.
1398 [Richard Levitte]
1399
1400 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
1401 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
1402
1403 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
1404
1405 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
1406 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
1407 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
1408 that.
1409
1410 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
1411
1412 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
1413
1414 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
1415 static ones.
1416 [Richard Levitte]
1417
1418 +) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
1419 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
1420 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
1421 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
1422 this case.
1423 [Steve Henson]
1424
1425 +) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
1426 [Ben Laurie]
1427
1428 +) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
1429 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
1430 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
1431 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
1432 set.
1433 [Steve Henson]
1434
1435 +) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
1436 [Richard Levitte]
1437
1438 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
1439
1440 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
1441 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
1442 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
1443 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
1444 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
1445
1446 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
1447 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
1448 matter what.
1449 [Richard Levitte]
1450
1451 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
1452 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1453
1454 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
1455
1456 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
1457 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
1458 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
1459 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
1460 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
1461 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
1462 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
1463 by the Finished messages.
1464 [Bodo Moeller]
1465
1466 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
1467 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
1468
1469 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
1470 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
1471 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
1472 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
1473 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
1474 appropriately.
1475 [Steve Henson]
1476
1477 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
1478 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
1479 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
1480 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
1481 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
1482 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
1483 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
1484 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
1485 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
1486 together.
1487 [Steve Henson]
1488
1489 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
1490 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
1491 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
1492 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
1493
1494 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
1495 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
1496 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
1497 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
1498 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
1499 the answer.
1500
1501 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
1502 been tested well enough.
1503 [Richard Levitte]
1504
1505 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
1506 it can return incorrect results.
1507 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
1508 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
1509 [Bodo Moeller]
1510
1511 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
1512 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
1513 include zero length content when signing messages.
1514 [Steve Henson]
1515
1516 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
1517 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
1518 [Bodo Möller]
1519
1520 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
1521 [Richard Levitte]
1522
1523 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
1524 wrong sign.
1525 [Ulf Möller]
1526
1527 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
1528 packages. The default package contains applications, application
1529 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
1530 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
1531 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
1532 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
1533 [Richard Levitte]
1534
1535 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
1536 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
1537
1538 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
1539 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
1540
1541 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
1542 random number < q in the DSA library.
1543 [Ulf Möller]
1544
1545 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
1546 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
1547 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
1548 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
1549 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
1550 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
1551 just makes things more complicated.)
1552 [Bodo Moeller]
1553
1554 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
1555 from EGD.
1556 [Ben Laurie]
1557
1558 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
1559 work better on such systems.
1560 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
1561
1562 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
1563 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
1564 keyid to the certificates aux info.
1565 [Steve Henson]
1566
1567 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
1568 if there was more than one signature.
1569 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
1570
1571 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
1572 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
1573 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
1574 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
1575 [Richard Levitte]
1576
1577 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
1578 rather than always using the current time.
1579 [Steve Henson]
1580
1581 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
1582 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
1583 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
1584 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
1585 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
1586 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
1587
1588 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
1589 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
1590
1591 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
1592
1593 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
1594 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
1595 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
1596 the same hash value.
1597
1598 As a result various functions (which were all internal
1599 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
1600 structure. This will break anything that messed round
1601 with X509_STORE internally.
1602
1603 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
1604 exact match, rather than just subject name.
1605
1606 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
1607 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
1608 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
1609 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
1610 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
1611 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
1612 entirely (maybe later...).
1613
1614 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
1615
1616 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
1617 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
1618 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
1619 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
1620 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
1621 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
1622 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
1623 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
1624
1625 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
1626 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
1627
1628 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
1629 to customise the verify behaviour.
1630 [Steve Henson]
1631
1632 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
1633 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
1634 [Steve Henson]
1635
1636 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
1637 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
1638 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
1639 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
1640 request is improperly encoded.
1641 [Steve Henson]
1642
1643 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
1644 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
1645 BIO_write(b, ...).
1646
1647 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
1648 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
1649
1650 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
1651 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
1652 words set to zero.)
1653 [Bodo Moeller]
1654
1655 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
1656 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
1657 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
1658 [Bodo Moeller]
1659
1660 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
1661 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
1662 BIO/fp routines also added.
1663 [Steve Henson]
1664
1665 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
1666 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
1667
1668 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
1669 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
1670 demos/state_machine.
1671 [Ben Laurie]
1672
1673 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
1674 generation and verification.
1675 [Steve Henson]
1676
1677 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
1678 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
1679 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
1680 encode and decode it manually.
1681 [Steve Henson]
1682
1683 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
1684 compile under VC++.
1685 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
1686
1687 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
1688 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
1689 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
1690 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
1691
1692 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
1693 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
1694 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
1695 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
1696 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
1697 [Steve Henson]
1698
1699 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
1700 [Richard Levitte]
1701
1702 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
1703 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
1704 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
1705
1706 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
1707 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
1708 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
1709 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
1710 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
1711 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
1712 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
1713 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
1714
1715 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
1716 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
1717
1718 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
1719
1720 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
1721 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
1722 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
1723
1724 [Richard Levitte]
1725
1726 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
1727 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
1728 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
1729 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
1730 [Richard Levitte]
1731
1732 *) MD4 implemented.
1733 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
1734
1735 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
1736 [Richard Levitte]
1737
1738 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
1739 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
1740 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
1741 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
1742 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
1743 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
1744 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
1745 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
1746 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
1747 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
1748 short or long names are found.
1749 [Steve Henson]
1750
1751 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
1752 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
1753
1754 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
1755 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
1756 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
1757 version rollback attacks was not effective.
1758
1759 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
1760 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
1761 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
1762 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
1763 [Bodo Moeller]
1764
1765 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
1766 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
1767 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
1768 [Richard Levitte]
1769
1770 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
1771 these print out strings and name structures based on various
1772 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
1773 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
1774 to allow the various flags to be set.
1775 [Steve Henson]
1776
1777 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
1778 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
1779 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
1780 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
1781 dates to be checked.
1782 [Steve Henson]
1783
1784 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
1785 negative public key encodings) on by default,
1786 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
1787 [Steve Henson]
1788
1789 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
1790 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
1791 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
1792 [Steve Henson]
1793
1794 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
1795 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
1796 [Bodo Moeller]
1797
1798 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
1799 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
1800 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
1801 are always statically linked for now, but there are
1802 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
1803 This has been tested on Linux and True64.
1804 [Richard Levitte]
1805
1806 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
1807 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
1808 Random Numbers.
1809 [Ulf Möller]
1810
1811 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
1812 DSA key.
1813 [Steve Henson]
1814
1815 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
1816 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
1817 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
1818 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
1819 form signing output easier to verify.
1820 [Steve Henson]
1821
1822 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
1823 [Steve Henson]
1824
1825 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
1826 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
1827 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
1828 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
1829 are needed because all other string types have virtually
1830 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
1831 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
1832 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
1833 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
1834 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
1835 [Steve Henson]
1836
1837 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
1838
1839 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
1840 the syntax given in objects.README.
1841 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
1842 obj_mac.h.
1843 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
1844 obj_mac.h.
1845
1846 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
1847 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
1848 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
1849 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
1850 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
1851 consistent name changes.
1852 [Richard Levitte]
1853
1854 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
1855 [Bodo Moeller]
1856
1857 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
1858 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
1859 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
1860 environment variable, or the default random state file.
1861 [Richard Levitte]
1862
1863 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
1864 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
1865 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
1866 of safestack.h .
1867 [Steve Henson]
1868
1869 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
1870 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
1871 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
1872 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
1873 [Steve Henson]
1874
1875 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
1876 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
1877 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
1878 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
1879 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
1880 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
1881 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
1882 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
1883 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
1884 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
1885 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
1886 [Steve Henson]
1887
1888 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
1889 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
1890 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
1891 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
1892 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
1893 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
1894 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
1895 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
1896 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
1897 algorithm to openssl-dev.
1898 [Steve Henson]
1899
1900 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
1901 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
1902 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
1903 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
1904
1905 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
1906 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
1907 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
1908 omit any duplicate addresses.
1909 [Steve Henson]
1910
1911 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
1912 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
1913 [Bodo Moeller]
1914
1915 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
1916 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
1917 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
1918 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
1919 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
1920 [Bodo Moeller]
1921
1922 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
1923 software:
1924 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
1925 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
1926 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
1927 Free => OPENSSL_free
1928 [Richard Levitte]
1929
1930 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
1931 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
1932 [Bodo Moeller]
1933
1934 *) CygWin32 support.
1935 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
1936
1937 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
1938 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
1939 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
1940 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
1941 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
1942 approach.
1943 [Geoff Thorpe]
1944
1945 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
1946 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
1947 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
1948 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
1949 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
1950 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
1951 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
1952 [Geoff Thorpe]
1953
1954 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
1955 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
1956 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
1957 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
1958 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
1959 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
1960 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
1961 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
1962 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
1963 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
1964 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
1965 [Bodo Moeller]
1966
1967 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
1968 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
1969 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
1970 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
1971 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
1972
1973 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
1974 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
1975 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
1976 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
1977 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
1978
1979 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
1980 ciphers.
1981
1982 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
1983 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
1984 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
1985 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
1986
1987 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
1988
1989 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
1990 of macros.
1991
1992 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
1993 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
1994 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
1995 flags.
1996
1997 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
1998 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
1999 any installed hardware versions can.
2000 [Steve Henson]
2001
2002 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
2003 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
2004 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
2005 number.
2006 [Bodo Moeller]
2007
2008 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
2009 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
2010 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
2011 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
2012 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
2013
2014 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
2015 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
2016 [Steve Henson]
2017
2018 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
2019 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
2020 [Richard Levitte]
2021
2022 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
2023 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
2024 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
2025 features.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
2028 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
2029 [Ulf Möller]
2030
2031 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
2032 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
2033 but no ssl client purpose.
2034 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
2035
2036 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
2037 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
2038 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
2039 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
2040 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
2041 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
2042 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
2043 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
2044 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
2045 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
2046 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
2047 [Steve Henson]
2048
2049 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
2050 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
2051 be obtained from the error queue.
2052 [Bodo Moeller]
2053
2054 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
2055 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
2056 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
2057 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
2058 [Bodo Moeller]
2059
2060 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
2061 [Ulf Möller]
2062
2063 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
2064 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
2065 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
2066 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
2067 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
2068 [Geoff Thorpe]
2069
2070 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
2071 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
2072 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
2073 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
2074 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
2075 [Geoff Thorpe]
2076
2077 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
2078 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
2079 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
2080 may not be NULL.
2081 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
2082
2083 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
2084 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
2085 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
2086 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
2087 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
2088 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
2089 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
2090 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
2091 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
2092 or "the configuration storage API"...
2093
2094 The new configuration file reading functions are:
2095
2096 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
2097 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
2098
2099 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
2100
2101 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
2102
2103 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
2104 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
2105 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
2106 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
2107 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
2108 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
2109 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
2110
2111 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
2112 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
2113 [Richard Levitte]
2114
2115 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
2116 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
2117 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
2118 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
2119 [Bodo Moeller]
2120
2121 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
2122 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
2123 them in a portable way.
2124 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
2125
2126 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
2127
2128 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
2129
2130 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
2131 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
2132
2133 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
2134 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
2135 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
2136 <attili@amaxo.com>]
2137
2138 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
2139 was larger than the MD block size.
2140 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
2141
2142 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
2143 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
2144 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
2145 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
2146 components.
2147 [Steve Henson]
2148
2149 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
2150 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
2151 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
2152
2153 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
2154 discouraged.
2155 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
2156
2157 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
2158 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
2159 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
2160 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
2161 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
2162 Additional arguments are always ignored.
2163
2164 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
2165 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
2166
2167 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
2168 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
2169 [Bodo Moeller]
2170
2171 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
2172 [Bodo Moeller]
2173
2174 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
2175 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
2176 its own key.
2177 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
2178 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
2179 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
2180 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
2181 [Bodo Moeller]
2182
2183 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
2184 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
2185 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
2186 does not suppress any output.
2187 [Richard Levitte]
2188
2189 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
2190 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
2191 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
2192 with all the associated security issues.
2193
2194 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
2195 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
2196 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
2197 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
2198 use the value in the default purpose.
2199 [Steve Henson]
2200
2201 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
2202 and fix a memory leak.
2203 [Steve Henson]
2204
2205 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
2206 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
2207 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
2208 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
2209 [Bodo Moeller]
2210
2211 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
2212 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
2213 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
2214 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
2215 [Bodo Moeller]
2216
2217 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
2218 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
2219 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
2220 [Bodo Moeller]
2221
2222 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
2223 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
2224 [Bodo Moeller]
2225
2226 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
2227 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
2228 which was free.
2229 [Steve Henson]
2230
2231 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
2232 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
2233 [Bodo Moeller]
2234
2235 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
2236 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
2237 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
2238 [Bodo Moeller]
2239
2240 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
2241 number generation fails.
2242 [Bodo Moeller]
2243
2244 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
2245 [Bodo Moeller]
2246
2247 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
2248 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
2249
2250 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
2251 [Ulf Möller]
2252
2253 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
2254 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
2255
2256 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
2257 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
2258
2259 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
2260
2261 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
2262 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
2263 [Steve Henson]
2264
2265 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
2266 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
2267
2268 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
2269 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
2270 [Ulf Möller]
2271
2272 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
2273 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
2274 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
2275 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
2276 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
2277 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
2278
2279 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
2280 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
2281 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
2282 for example.
2283 [Steve Henson]
2284
2285 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
2286 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
2287 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
2288 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
2289 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
2290 counter, some don't.)
2291 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
2292 counters or duplicate objects.
2293 [Steve Henson]
2294
2295 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
2296 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
2297 [Steve Henson]
2298
2299 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
2300 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
2301 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
2302
2303 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
2304 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
2305 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
2306 or -rand.
2307 [Ulf Möller]
2308
2309 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
2310 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
2311 [Steve Henson]
2312
2313 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
2314 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
2315 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
2316 cipher list.
2317 [Steve Henson]
2318
2319 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
2320 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
2321 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
2322 [Steve Henson]
2323
2324 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
2325 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
2326 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
2327 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
2328 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
2329 should work without changes.
2330 [Richard Levitte]
2331
2332 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
2333 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
2334 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
2335 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
2336 must be defined. E.g.,
2337 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
2338 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
2339 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
2340 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
2341
2342 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
2343 record layer.
2344 [Bodo Moeller]
2345
2346 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
2347 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
2348 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
2349 [Steve Henson]
2350
2351 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
2352 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
2353 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
2354 request header lines. Some software needs this.
2355 [Steve Henson]
2356
2357 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
2358 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
2359 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
2360 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
2361 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
2362 is prompted for as usual.
2363 [Steve Henson]
2364
2365 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
2366 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
2367 autodetect the card and use it if present.
2368 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
2369
2370 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
2371 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
2372 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
2373 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
2374 [Steve Henson]
2375
2376 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
2377 [Andy Polyakov]
2378
2379 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
2380 of seed file.
2381 [Steve Henson]
2382
2383 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
2384 [Bodo Moeller]
2385
2386 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
2387 [Steve Henson]
2388
2389 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
2390 bits.
2391 [Ulf Möller]
2392
2393 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
2394 [Ulf Möller]
2395
2396 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
2397 [Andy Polyakov]
2398
2399 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
2400 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
2401 [Ulf Möller]
2402
2403 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
2404 options to produce them.
2405 [Steve Henson]
2406
2407 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
2408 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
2409 [Ulf Möller]
2410
2411 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
2412 for p == 0.
2413 [Ulf Möller]
2414
2415 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
2416 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
2417 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
2418 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
2419 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
2420 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
2421 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
2422 [Steve Henson]
2423
2424 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
2425 [Steve Henson]
2426
2427 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
2428 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
2429 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
2430 [Bodo Moeller]
2431
2432 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
2433 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
2434
2435 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
2436 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
2437 [Ulf Möller]
2438
2439 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
2440 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
2441 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
2442 has already seen).
2443 [Bodo Moeller]
2444
2445 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
2446 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
2447
2448 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
2449 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
2450 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
2451 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
2452 generation becomes much faster.
2453
2454 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
2455 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
2456 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
2457 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
2458 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
2459 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
2460 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
2461 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
2462 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
2463 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
2464 [Bodo Moeller]
2465
2466 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
2467 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
2468 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
2469 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
2470 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
2471 trial division stage.
2472 [Bodo Moeller]
2473
2474 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
2475 as ASN1_TIME.
2476 [Steve Henson]
2477
2478 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
2479 [Steve Henson]
2480
2481 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
2482 [Ulf Möller]
2483
2484 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
2485 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
2486 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
2487 the comments.
2488 [Ulf Möller]
2489
2490 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
2491 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
2492 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
2493 [Bodo Moeller]
2494
2495 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
2496 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
2497 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
2498 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
2499
2500 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
2501 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
2502 [Steve Henson]
2503
2504 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
2505 [Ulf Möller]
2506
2507 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
2508 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
2509 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
2510 Rabin-Miller iterations.
2511 [Ulf Möller]
2512
2513 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
2514 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
2515 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
2516 [Ulf Möller]
2517
2518 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
2519 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
2520 (instead of parameters) in future.
2521 [Steve Henson]
2522
2523 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
2524 when a new cipher list is set.
2525 [Steve Henson]
2526
2527 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
2528 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
2529 wrong.
2530
2531 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
2532 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
2533 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
2534
2535 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
2536 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
2537 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
2538 an error is flagged.
2539
2540 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
2541 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
2542 the readability was also increased :-)
2543 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
2544
2545 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
2546 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
2547 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
2548 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
2549 as the root CA.
2550 [Steve Henson]
2551
2552 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
2553 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
2554 [Steve Henson]
2555
2556 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
2557 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
2558 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
2559 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
2560 instead.
2561
2562 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
2563 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
2564 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
2565 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
2566 because they handle more complex structures.)
2567 [Steve Henson]
2568
2569 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
2570 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
2571 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
2572 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
2573
2574 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
2575 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
2576 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
2577 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
2578 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
2579 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
2580 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
2581 [Ulf Möller]
2582
2583 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
2584 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
2585 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
2586 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
2587 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
2588 [Bodo Moeller]
2589
2590 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
2591 [Bodo Moeller]
2592
2593 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
2594 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
2595 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
2596 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
2597 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
2598 to use this.
2599
2600 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
2601 code.
2602 [Steve Henson]
2603
2604 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
2605 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
2606 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
2607 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
2608 [Steve Henson]
2609
2610 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
2611 [Ulf Möller]
2612
2613 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
2614 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
2615 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
2616 international characters are used.
2617
2618 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
2619 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
2620 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
2621 in ASN1 order.
2622 [Steve Henson]
2623
2624 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
2625 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
2626 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
2627 request.
2628
2629 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
2630 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
2631 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
2632 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
2633 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
2634 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
2635
2636 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
2637 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
2638 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
2639 be handled by the string table functions.
2640
2641 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
2642 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
2643 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
2644 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
2645 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
2646 types at all.
2647 [Steve Henson]
2648
2649 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
2650 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
2651 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
2652 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
2653 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
2654
2655 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
2656 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
2657 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
2658 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
2659 [Bodo Moeller]
2660
2661 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
2662 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
2663 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
2664 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
2665 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
2666 SHA1.
2667 [Andy Polyakov]
2668
2669 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
2670 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
2671 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
2672 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
2673 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
2674 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
2675 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
2676 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
2677
2678 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
2679 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
2680 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
2681 [Steve Henson]
2682
2683 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
2684 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
2685 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
2686 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
2687 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
2688 support to pkcs8 application.
2689 [Steve Henson]
2690
2691 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
2692 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
2693 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
2694 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
2695 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
2696 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
2697 [Bodo Moeller]
2698
2699 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
2700 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
2701 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
2702 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
2703 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
2704 consistency.
2705 [Bodo Moeller]
2706
2707 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
2708 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
2709 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
2710 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
2711 example.
2712 [Steve Henson]
2713
2714 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
2715 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
2716 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
2717 and any application specific purposes.
2718
2719 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
2720 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
2721 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
2722 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
2723 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
2724 if the certificate is self signed.
2725 [Steve Henson]
2726
2727 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
2728 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
2729 [Steve Henson]
2730
2731 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
2732 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
2733 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
2734 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
2735 [Steve Henson]
2736
2737 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
2738 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
2739 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
2740 Update documentation.
2741 [Steve Henson]
2742
2743 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
2744 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
2745 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
2746 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
2747 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
2748 [Steve Henson]
2749
2750 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
2751 for details.
2752 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
2753
2754 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
2755 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
2756 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
2757 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
2758 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
2759 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
2760 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
2761 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
2762 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
2763 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
2764
2765 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
2766
2767 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
2768 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
2769 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
2770 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
2771 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
2772
2773 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
2774 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
2775 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
2776 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
2777 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
2778 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
2779 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
2780 request additional information:
2781 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
2782 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
2783
2784 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
2785 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
2786 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
2787 options.
2788
2789 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
2790 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
2791
2792 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
2793 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
2794 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
2795
2796 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
2797 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2798
2799 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
2800 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
2801 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
2802 algorithm.
2803 [Steve Henson]
2804
2805 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
2806 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
2807 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
2808
2809 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
2810 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
2811 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
2812 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
2813 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
2814 included in OpenSSL.
2815 [Steve Henson]
2816
2817 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
2818 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
2819 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
2820 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
2821 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
2822 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
2823 [Bodo Moeller]
2824
2825 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
2826 PKCS12 structure.
2827 [Steve Henson]
2828
2829 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
2830 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
2831 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
2832 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
2833 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
2834 structure.
2835 [Steve Henson]
2836
2837 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
2838 need initialising.
2839 [Steve Henson]
2840
2841 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
2842 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
2843 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
2844 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
2845 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
2846 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
2847 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
2848 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
2849 be maintained manually.
2850
2851 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
2852 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
2853 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
2854 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
2855 work because people forget to call this function]
2856 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
2857 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
2858 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
2859 [Steve Henson]
2860
2861 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
2862 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
2863 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
2864 should be discouraged from doing it.
2865 [Ben Laurie]
2866
2867 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
2868 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
2869 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
2870 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
2871 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
2872 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
2873 [Steve Henson]
2874
2875 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
2876 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
2877 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
2878
2879 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
2880 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
2881 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
2882
2883 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
2884 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
2885 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
2886 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
2887 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
2888 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
2889
2890 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
2891 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
2892 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
2893
2894 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
2895 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
2896 and vice versa.
2897
2898 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
2899 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
2900 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
2901 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
2902 [Steve Henson]
2903
2904 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
2905 [Steve Henson]
2906
2907 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
2908 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
2909 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
2910 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
2911 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
2912 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
2913 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
2914 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
2915 keys so we should be OK.
2916
2917 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
2918 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
2919 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
2920 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
2921 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
2922 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
2923 stay in the name of compatibility.
2924
2925 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
2926 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
2927 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
2928
2929 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
2930 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
2931 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
2932 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
2933 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
2934 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
2935 supplied key).
2936 [Steve Henson]
2937
2938 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
2939 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
2940 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
2941 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
2942 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
2943 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
2944 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
2945 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
2946 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
2947 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
2948 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
2949 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
2950 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
2951 [Steve Henson]
2952
2953 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
2954 [Steve Henson]
2955
2956 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
2957 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
2958 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
2959 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
2960 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
2961 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
2962 single self signed certificate. This means that:
2963 openssl verify ss.pem
2964 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
2965 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
2966 is OK.
2967 [Steve Henson]
2968
2969 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
2970 (and add it to external session representation).
2971 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
2972 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
2973 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
2974 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
2975 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
2976 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
2977 security holes.
2978 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
2979
2980 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
2981 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
2982 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
2983 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
2984
2985 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
2986 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
2987 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
2988 [Steve Henson]
2989
2990 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
2991 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
2992 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
2993 code.
2994 [Steve Henson]
2995
2996 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
2997 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
2998 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
2999
3000 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
3001 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
3002 certificate auxiliary information.
3003 [Steve Henson]
3004
3005 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
3006 the 'enc' command.
3007 [Steve Henson]
3008
3009 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
3010 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
3011 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
3012 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
3013 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
3014 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
3015 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
3016 [Richard Levitte]
3017
3018 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
3019 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
3020 [Steve Henson]
3021
3022 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
3023 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
3024 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
3025 manpages and fix a few bugs.
3026 [Steve Henson]
3027
3028 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
3029 [Steve Henson]
3030
3031 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
3032 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
3033 [Steve Henson]
3034
3035 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
3036 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
3037 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
3038 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
3039 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
3040 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
3041 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
3042 using the new 'x509' options.
3043
3044 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
3045 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
3046 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
3047 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
3048 for all purposes.
3049 [Steve Henson]
3050
3051 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
3052 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
3053 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
3054 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
3055 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
3056 [Mark Cox]
3057
3058 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
3059 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
3060 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
3061 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
3062 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
3063 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
3064 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
3065 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
3066 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
3067 the key length and effective key length are equal.
3068 [Steve Henson]
3069
3070 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
3071 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
3072 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
3073 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
3074 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
3075 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
3076 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
3077 [Steve Henson]
3078
3079 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
3080 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
3081 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
3082 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
3083 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
3084 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
3085 openssl.cnf for more info.
3086 [Steve Henson]
3087
3088 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
3089 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
3090 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
3091 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
3092 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
3093 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
3094 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
3095 md should be large enough anyway.
3096 [Bodo Moeller]
3097
3098 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
3099 for handling the random seed file.
3100
3101 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
3102 ca,
3103 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
3104 s_client,
3105 s_server,
3106 x509 (when signing).
3107 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
3108 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
3109 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
3110
3111 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
3112 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
3113 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
3114 that support '-rand'.
3115 [Bodo Moeller]
3116
3117 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
3118 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
3119 [Bodo Moeller]
3120
3121 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
3122 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
3123 [Bill Perry]
3124
3125 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
3126 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
3127 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
3128 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
3129 is suitable.
3130 [Steve Henson]
3131
3132 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
3133 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
3134 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
3135 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
3136 [Steve Henson]
3137
3138 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
3139 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
3140 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
3141 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
3142 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
3143 print out all the purposes.
3144 [Steve Henson]
3145
3146 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
3147 functions.
3148 [Steve Henson]
3149
3150 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
3151 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
3152 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
3153 single function call.
3154 [Steve Henson]
3155
3156 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
3157 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
3158 [Andy Polyakov]
3159
3160 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
3161 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
3162 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
3163 [Steve Henson]
3164
3165 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
3166 when producing the local key id.
3167 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3168
3169 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
3170 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
3171 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
3172 "server.pem".
3173 [Steve Henson]
3174
3175 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
3176 a public key to be input or output. For example:
3177 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
3178 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
3179 [Steve Henson]
3180
3181 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
3182 in the message. This was handled by allowing
3183 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
3184 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
3185
3186 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
3187 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
3188 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
3189 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3190
3191 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
3192 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
3193 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
3194 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
3195 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
3196 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
3197 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
3198 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
3199 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
3200 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
3201 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
3202 trivial: move one line.
3203 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
3204
3205 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
3206 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
3207 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
3208 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
3209 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
3210 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
3211 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
3212 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
3213 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
3214 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
3215 with an event loop for example.
3216 [Steve Henson]
3217
3218 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
3219 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
3220 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
3221 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
3222 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
3223 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
3224 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
3225 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
3226 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
3227 [Steve Henson]
3228
3229 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
3230 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
3231 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
3232 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
3233 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
3234 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
3235 [Steve Henson]
3236
3237 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
3238 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
3239 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
3240 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
3241
3242 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
3243 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
3244 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
3245 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
3246 key generation.
3247 [Steve Henson]
3248
3249 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
3250 (still largely untested)
3251 [Bodo Moeller]
3252
3253 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
3254 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
3255 [Steve Henson]
3256
3257 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
3258 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
3259 [Steve Henson]
3260
3261 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
3262 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
3263 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
3264 [Bodo Moeller]
3265
3266 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
3267 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
3268 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
3269 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
3270 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
3271 [Steve Henson]
3272
3273 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
3274 [Andy Polyakov]
3275
3276 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
3277 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
3278 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
3279 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
3280 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
3281 in ca.
3282 [Steve Henson]
3283
3284 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
3285 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
3286 1.OU="Unit name 1"
3287 2.OU="Unit name 2"
3288 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
3289 [Steve Henson]
3290
3291 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
3292 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
3293 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
3294 are otherwise ignored at present.
3295 [Steve Henson]
3296
3297 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
3298 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
3299 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
3300 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
3301 copied until the next read.
3302 [Steve Henson]
3303
3304 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
3305 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
3306 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
3307 [Steve Henson]
3308
3309 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
3310 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
3311 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
3312 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
3313 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
3314 associated functions.
3315 [Steve Henson]
3316
3317 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
3318 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
3319 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
3320 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
3321 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
3322 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
3323 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
3324 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
3325 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
3326 memory BIOs.
3327 [Steve Henson]
3328
3329 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
3330 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
3331 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
3332 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
3333 [Bodo Moeller]
3334
3335 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
3336 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
3337 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
3338 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
3339 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
3340 functionality.
3341 [Steve Henson]
3342
3343 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
3344 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
3345 under Win32.
3346 [Steve Henson]
3347
3348 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
3349 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
3350 extensions to be obtained and added.
3351 [Steve Henson]
3352
3353 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
3354 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
3355 [Bodo Moeller]
3356
3357 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
3358
3359 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
3360 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3361
3362 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
3363 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
3364
3365 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
3366 program.
3367 [Steve Henson]
3368
3369 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
3370 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
3371 DH parameters contain its length).
3372
3373 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
3374 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
3375 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
3376 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
3377 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
3378 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
3379 utter importance to use
3380 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
3381 or
3382 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
3383 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
3384 attacks may become possible!
3385 [Bodo Moeller]
3386
3387 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
3388 [Bodo Moeller]
3389
3390 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
3391 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
3392 [Steve Henson]
3393
3394 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
3395 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
3396 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
3397 or long name.
3398 [Steve Henson]
3399
3400 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
3401 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
3402 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
3403 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
3404 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
3405 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
3406 private key operations.
3407 [Steve Henson]
3408
3409 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
3410 [Andy Polyakov]
3411
3412 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
3413 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
3414 to
3415 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
3416 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
3417 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
3418 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
3419 the password callback is called.
3420 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
3421
3422 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
3423
3424 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
3425 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
3426 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
3427 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
3428 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
3429 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
3430 this will work.
3431
3432 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
3433 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
3434 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
3435 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
3436 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
3437 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
3438 [Bodo Moeller]
3439
3440 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
3441 [Andy Polyakov]
3442
3443 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
3444 delete an unused file.
3445 [Ulf Möller]
3446
3447 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
3448 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
3449 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
3450 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
3451 [Steve Henson]
3452
3453 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
3454 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
3455 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
3456 of an error.
3457 [Bodo Moeller]
3458
3459 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
3460 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
3461 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
3462
3463 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
3464 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
3465 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
3466 comparison" warnings.
3467 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
3468 [Steve Henson]
3469
3470 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
3471 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
3472 derived keys are printed to stderr.
3473 [Steve Henson]
3474
3475 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
3476 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
3477
3478 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
3479 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
3480
3481 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
3482 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
3483 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
3484
3485 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
3486 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
3487 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
3488 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
3489 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
3490 this bug.
3491 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
3492
3493 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
3494 The interface is as follows:
3495 Applications can use
3496 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
3497 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
3498 "off" is now the default.
3499 The library internally uses
3500 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
3501 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
3502 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
3503
3504 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
3505 even the default) are now avoided.
3506
3507 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
3508 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
3509 than just having a counter.
3510
3511 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
3512
3513 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
3514 extensions.
3515 [Bodo Moeller]
3516
3517 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
3518 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
3519 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
3520 Initial "mode" flags are:
3521
3522 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
3523 a single record has been written.
3524 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
3525 retries use the same buffer location.
3526 (But all of the contents must be
3527 copied!)
3528 [Bodo Moeller]
3529
3530 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
3531 worked.
3532
3533 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
3534 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
3535
3536 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
3537 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
3538 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
3539 [Steve Henson]
3540
3541 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
3542 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
3543 test programs.
3544 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
3545
3546 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
3547 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
3548 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
3549 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
3550 point to the end.
3551 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
3552 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
3553
3554 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
3555 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
3556 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
3557 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
3558 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
3559 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
3560 [Steve Henson]
3561
3562 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
3563 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
3564 necessary function names.
3565 [Steve Henson]
3566
3567 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
3568 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
3569 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
3570 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
3571 [Bodo Moeller]
3572
3573 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
3574 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
3575 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
3576 [Steve Henson]
3577
3578 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
3579 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
3580 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
3581 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
3582 such programs?)
3583 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
3584 need locks.
3585 [Bodo Moeller]
3586
3587 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
3588 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
3589 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
3590 [Bodo Moeller]
3591
3592 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
3593 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
3594 appropriate.
3595 [Bodo Moeller]
3596
3597 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
3598 for the encoded length.
3599 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
3600
3601 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
3602 [Steve Henson]
3603
3604 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
3605 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
3606 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
3607 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
3608 [Steve Henson]
3609
3610 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
3611 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
3612 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3613
3614 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
3615 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
3616 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
3617 unusual formatting.
3618 [Steve Henson]
3619
3620 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
3621 to use the new extension code.
3622 [Steve Henson]
3623
3624 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
3625 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
3626 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
3627 constant.
3628 [Steve Henson]
3629
3630 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
3631 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
3632 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
3633 [Bodo Moeller]
3634
3635 #if 0
3636 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
3637 [Ben Laurie]
3638 #else
3639 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
3640 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
3641 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
3642 #endif
3643
3644 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
3645 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
3646 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
3647 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
3648 [Ben Laurie]
3649
3650 *) DES library cleanups.
3651 [Ulf Möller]
3652
3653 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
3654 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
3655 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
3656 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
3657 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
3658 of v2.0.
3659 [Steve Henson]
3660
3661 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
3662 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
3663 [Bodo Moeller]
3664
3665 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
3666 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
3667 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
3668 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
3669 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
3670 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
3671 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
3672 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
3673 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
3674 [Steve Henson]
3675
3676 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
3677 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
3678 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
3679 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
3680 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
3681 value doesn't matter.
3682 [Steve Henson]
3683
3684 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
3685 support mutable.
3686 [Ben Laurie]
3687
3688 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
3689 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
3690 "linux-sparc" configuration.
3691 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
3692
3693 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
3694 [Ulf Möller]
3695
3696 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
3697 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
3698 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
3699
3700 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
3701 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
3702
3703 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
3704 [Ben Laurie]
3705
3706 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
3707 [Ben Laurie]
3708
3709 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
3710 [Ben Laurie]
3711
3712 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
3713 [Bodo Moeller]
3714
3715
3716 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
3717
3718 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
3719
3720 *) Updated some demos.
3721 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
3722
3723 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
3724 [Wu Zhigang]
3725
3726 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
3727 [Steve Henson]
3728
3729 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
3730 [Steve Henson]
3731
3732 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
3733 instead of using a fixed path.
3734 [Bodo Moeller]
3735
3736 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
3737 [Andy Polyakov]
3738
3739 *) Improvements for VMS support.
3740 [Richard Levitte]
3741
3742
3743 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
3744
3745 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
3746 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
3747 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3748
3749 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
3750 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
3751 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
3752 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
3753 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
3754 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
3755 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
3756 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
3757 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
3758 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
3759 [Steve Henson]
3760
3761 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
3762 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
3763 [Steve Henson]
3764
3765 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
3766 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
3767 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
3768 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
3769 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
3770
3771 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
3772 [Bodo Moeller]
3773
3774 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
3775 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
3776 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
3777 [Steve Henson]
3778
3779 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
3780 [Ben Laurie]
3781
3782 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
3783 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
3784 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
3785 key elements as negative integers.
3786 [Steve Henson]
3787
3788 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
3789 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3790
3791 *) VMS support.
3792 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
3793
3794 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
3795 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
3796 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
3797 [Steve Henson]
3798
3799 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
3800 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
3801 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
3802 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
3803 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
3804 [Bodo Moeller]
3805
3806 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
3807 [Ulf Möller]
3808
3809 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
3810 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
3811 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
3812 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3813
3814 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
3815 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
3816 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
3817
3818 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
3819 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
3820 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
3821 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
3822 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
3823 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
3824 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
3825 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
3826 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
3827
3828 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
3829 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
3830 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
3831 does not influence s as it used to.
3832
3833 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
3834 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
3835 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
3836 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
3837 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
3838 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
3839 [Bodo Moeller]
3840
3841 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
3842 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
3843 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
3844 key type.
3845 [Steve Henson]
3846
3847 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
3848 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
3849 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
3850 and 'x509').
3851 [Steve Henson]
3852
3853 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
3854 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
3855 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
3856 extension option.
3857 [Steve Henson]
3858
3859 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
3860 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
3861 [Ben Laurie]
3862
3863 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
3864 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
3865
3866 *) Support Mingw32.
3867 [Ulf Möller]
3868
3869 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
3870 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3871
3872 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
3873 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3874
3875 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
3876 [Ulf Möller]
3877
3878 *) Update HPUX configuration.
3879 [Anonymous]
3880
3881 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
3882 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3883
3884 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
3885 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
3886 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
3887 DER-encoded.)
3888 [Bodo Moeller]
3889
3890 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
3891 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
3892 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
3893 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
3894 now it really counts the depth.
3895 [Bodo Moeller]
3896
3897 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
3898 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
3899 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
3900 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
3901 didn't match the private key).
3902
3903 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
3904 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
3905 connection using the SSL_CTX).
3906 [Bodo Moeller]
3907
3908 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
3909 [Ulf Möller]
3910
3911 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
3912 David Harris.
3913 [Bodo Moeller]
3914
3915 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
3916 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
3917 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
3918 [Bodo Moeller]
3919
3920 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
3921 [Bodo Moeller]
3922
3923 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
3924 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
3925 such as /usr/local/bin.
3926 [Bodo Moeller]
3927
3928 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
3929 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
3930
3931 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
3932 [Ulf Möller]
3933
3934 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
3935 extension adding in x509 utility.
3936 [Steve Henson]
3937
3938 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
3939 [Ulf Möller]
3940
3941 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
3942 prototypes.
3943 [Steve Henson]
3944
3945 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
3946 [Ulf Möller]
3947
3948 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
3949 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
3950 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
3951 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
3952 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
3953 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
3954 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
3955 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
3956 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
3957 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
3958 [Steve Henson]
3959
3960 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
3961 [Bodo Moeller]
3962
3963 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
3964 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
3965 [Bodo Moeller]
3966
3967 *) Fix some race conditions.
3968 [Bodo Moeller]
3969
3970 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
3971 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
3972 [Steve Henson]
3973
3974 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
3975 [Ulf Möller]
3976
3977 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
3978 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
3979 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
3980 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
3981
3982 *) Fix lots of warnings.
3983 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3984
3985 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
3986 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
3987 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3988
3989 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
3990 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3991
3992 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
3993 [Ulf Möller]
3994
3995 *) Fix typos in error codes.
3996 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
3997
3998 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
3999 [Ulf Möller]
4000
4001 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
4002 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4003
4004 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
4005 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
4006 [Steve Henson]
4007
4008 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
4009 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
4010 [Ben Laurie]
4011
4012 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
4013 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
4014 [Steve Henson]
4015
4016 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
4017 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
4018 [Steve Henson]
4019
4020 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
4021 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
4022 [Steve Henson]
4023
4024 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
4025 support typesafe stack.
4026 [Steve Henson]
4027
4028 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
4029 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
4030
4031 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
4032 old X509V3 handling code.
4033 [Steve Henson]
4034
4035 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
4036 [Ulf Möller]
4037
4038 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
4039 [Bodo Moeller]
4040
4041 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
4042 [Ben Laurie]
4043
4044 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
4045 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
4046
4047 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
4048 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
4049 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
4050 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
4051 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
4052 [Ben Laurie]
4053
4054 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
4055 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
4056 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
4057 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
4058 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
4059
4060 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
4061 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
4062 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
4063 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4064
4065 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
4066 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
4067 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
4068 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4069
4070 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
4071 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
4072 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
4073 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
4074 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
4075 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
4076 [Bodo Moeller]
4077
4078 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
4079 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
4080 [Bodo Moeller]
4081
4082 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
4083 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
4084 [Ulf Möller]
4085
4086 *) Tweaks to Configure
4087 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
4088
4089 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
4090 yet...
4091 [Steve Henson]
4092
4093 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
4094 [Ulf Möller]
4095
4096 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
4097 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
4098 [Ulf Möller]
4099
4100 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
4101 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
4102 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
4103 [Bodo Moeller]
4104
4105 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
4106 [Bodo Moeller]
4107
4108 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
4109 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
4110 [Steve Henson]
4111
4112 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
4113 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
4114 to library startup routines.
4115 [Steve Henson]
4116
4117 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
4118 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
4119 codes along the way.
4120 [Steve Henson]
4121
4122 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
4123 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
4124 objects to objects.h
4125 [Steve Henson]
4126
4127 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
4128 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
4129 [Steve Henson]
4130
4131 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
4132 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
4133
4134 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
4135 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
4136 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
4137
4138 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
4139 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
4140 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4141
4142 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
4143 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
4144 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
4145
4146
4147 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
4148
4149 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
4150 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
4151 [Ben Laurie]
4152
4153 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
4154 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
4155 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
4156 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
4157 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
4158
4159 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
4160 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
4161 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
4162 document.
4163 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4164
4165 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
4166 Malloc, Free.
4167 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
4168
4169 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
4170 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4171
4172 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
4173 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
4174 if someone would make that last step automatic.
4175 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
4176
4177 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
4178 [Ben Laurie]
4179
4180 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
4181 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
4182 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
4183 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
4184 [Steve Henson]
4185
4186 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
4187 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
4188 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
4189 [Steve Henson]
4190
4191 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
4192 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
4193 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
4194 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
4195 installed as `perl').
4196 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
4197
4198 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
4199 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
4200
4201 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
4202 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
4203 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
4204 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
4205 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
4206 [Steve Henson]
4207
4208 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
4209 [Ben Laurie]
4210
4211 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
4212 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
4213 is horrible: I feel ill....
4214 [Steve Henson]
4215
4216 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
4217 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
4218 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
4219 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
4220 [Steve Henson]
4221
4222 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
4223 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4224
4225 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
4226 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
4227 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
4228 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4229
4230 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
4231 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
4232 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
4233 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
4234 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
4235 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
4236 openssl_bio.xs.
4237 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4238
4239 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
4240 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
4241
4242 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
4243 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
4244
4245 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
4246 [Ben Laurie]
4247
4248 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
4249 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
4250 in CRLs.
4251 [Steve Henson]
4252
4253 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
4254 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
4255 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
4256 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
4257 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
4258 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
4259 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
4260 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
4261 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
4262 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
4263 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4264
4265 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
4266 [Ben Laurie]
4267
4268 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
4269 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
4270 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
4271 for linking it into DSOs.
4272 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4273
4274 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
4275 Fixed.
4276 [Ben Laurie]
4277
4278 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
4279 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
4280 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
4281 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
4282 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
4283 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4284
4285 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
4286 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
4287 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
4288 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
4289 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
4290 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
4291 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4292
4293 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
4294 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
4295 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
4296 encryption.
4297 [Ben Laurie]
4298
4299 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
4300 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
4301 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
4302 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
4303 [Steve Henson]
4304
4305 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
4306 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
4307 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
4308 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
4309 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
4310 field as blank.
4311 [Steve Henson]
4312
4313 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
4314 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
4315 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
4316 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
4317 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4318
4319 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
4320 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
4321 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
4322
4323 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
4324 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
4325
4326 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
4327 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
4328 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
4329 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
4330 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
4331 [Steve Henson]
4332
4333 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
4334 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
4335 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
4336 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
4337 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
4338 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
4339 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
4340 [Ben Laurie]
4341
4342 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
4343 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
4344 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
4345 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
4346 [Ben Laurie]
4347
4348 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
4349 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
4350
4351 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
4352 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
4353 [Steve Henson]
4354
4355 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
4356 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
4357 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
4358 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
4359 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
4360 (e.g. s_server).
4361 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
4362 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
4363 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
4364 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
4365 no way to reconfigure them.
4366 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
4367 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
4368 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
4369 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
4370 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
4371 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4372
4373 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
4374 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
4375 recognized by the users.
4376 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4377
4378 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
4379 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
4380 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
4381 already masked variable.
4382 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4383
4384 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
4385 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4386
4387 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
4388 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
4389 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
4390 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4391
4392 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
4393 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
4394 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4395
4396 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
4397 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
4398 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
4399 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
4400 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
4401 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
4402 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
4403 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
4404 now, too.
4405 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4406
4407 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
4408 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
4409 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4410
4411 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
4412 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
4413 config file.
4414 [Steve Henson]
4415
4416 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
4417 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
4418
4419 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
4420 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
4421 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
4422 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
4423 [Ben Laurie]
4424
4425 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
4426 [Steve Henson]
4427
4428 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
4429 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4430
4431 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
4432 [Ben Laurie]
4433
4434 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
4435 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
4436 [Steve Henson]
4437
4438 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
4439 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
4440 [Steve Henson]
4441
4442 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
4443 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
4444 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
4445 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
4446 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
4447 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
4448 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
4449 Ben Laurie]
4450
4451 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
4452 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
4453
4454 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
4455 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
4456 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
4457 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
4458 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
4459
4460 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
4461 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
4462 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
4463 [Steve Henson]
4464
4465 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
4466 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
4467 an example.
4468 [Steve Henson]
4469
4470 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
4471 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
4472 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
4473
4474 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
4475 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
4476 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
4477 build instructions.
4478 [Steve Henson]
4479
4480 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
4481 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
4482 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
4483 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
4484 [Steve Henson]
4485
4486 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
4487 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
4488 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
4489 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
4490 [Ben Laurie]
4491
4492 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
4493 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
4494 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
4495 so it wasn't spotted.
4496 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
4497
4498 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
4499 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
4500 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
4501 vectors if you have them.
4502 [Ben Laurie]
4503
4504 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
4505 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
4506 [Ben Laurie]
4507
4508 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
4509 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
4510 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
4511 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
4512 If you do a:
4513 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
4514 it will update them.
4515 [Steve Henson]
4516
4517 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
4518 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
4519 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
4520 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
4521 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
4522 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
4523 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
4524 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4525
4526 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
4527 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
4528 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
4529 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
4530 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
4531 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
4532 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
4533 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
4534 the crypto/md/ stuff).
4535 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4536
4537 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
4538 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
4539 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
4540 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
4541 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
4542 [Steve Henson]
4543
4544 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
4545 INTEGER code.
4546 [Steve Henson]
4547
4548 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
4549 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
4550
4551 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
4552 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
4553
4554 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
4555 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
4556 [Ben Laurie]
4557
4558 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
4559 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
4560
4561 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
4562 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
4563
4564 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
4565 [Steve Henson]
4566
4567 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
4568 few typos.
4569 [Steve Henson]
4570
4571 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
4572 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
4573 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
4574 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
4575
4576 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
4577 [Steve Henson]
4578
4579 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
4580 [Steve Henson]
4581
4582 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
4583 [Steve Henson]
4584
4585 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
4586 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
4587 [Steve Henson]
4588
4589 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
4590 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
4591 CA extensions.
4592 [Steve Henson]
4593
4594 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
4595 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
4596 [Steve Henson]
4597
4598 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
4599 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
4600 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
4601 [Steve Henson]
4602
4603 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
4604 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
4605 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
4606 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
4607 properly to be processed.
4608 [Steve Henson]
4609
4610 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
4611 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
4612 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
4613 [Ben Laurie]
4614
4615 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
4616 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
4617
4618 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
4619 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
4620 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
4621 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
4622 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
4623 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
4624 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
4625 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
4626 or delete all the .err files.
4627 [Steve Henson]
4628
4629 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
4630 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
4631 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
4632 to regenerate it if needed.
4633 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
4634 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
4635
4636 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
4637 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4638
4639 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
4640 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
4641 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
4642 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
4643 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
4644 [Steve Henson]
4645
4646 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
4647 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4648
4649 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
4650 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4651
4652 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
4653 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
4654 error, but didn't set one).
4655 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4656
4657 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
4658 [Ben Laurie]
4659
4660 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
4661 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
4662 [Steve Henson]
4663
4664 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
4665 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
4666
4667 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
4668 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
4669 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
4670 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
4671 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
4672 OID is not part of the table.
4673 [Steve Henson]
4674
4675 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
4676 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
4677 [Ben Laurie]
4678
4679 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
4680 [Ben Laurie]
4681
4682 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
4683 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
4684 was "1234").
4685 [Steve Henson]
4686
4687 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
4688 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
4689
4690 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
4691 NULL pointers.
4692 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4693
4694 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
4695 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
4696
4697 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
4698 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
4699
4700 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
4701 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4702
4703 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
4704 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
4705 [Ben Laurie]
4706
4707 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
4708 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
4709 [Steve Henson]
4710
4711 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
4712 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4713
4714 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
4715 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4716
4717 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
4718 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4719
4720 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
4721 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4722
4723 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
4724 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
4725 unused in the certificate verification process.
4726 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4727
4728 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
4729 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
4730 [Steve Henson]
4731
4732 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
4733 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
4734 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
4735
4736 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
4737 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
4738 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
4739 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
4740 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
4741
4742 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
4743 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
4744 [Steve Henson]
4745
4746 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
4747 [Steve Henson]
4748
4749 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
4750 [Paul Sutton]
4751
4752 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
4753 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
4754
4755 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
4756 [Ben Laurie]
4757
4758 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
4759 [Ben Laurie]
4760
4761 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
4762 [Ben Laurie]
4763
4764 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
4765 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
4766 other error libraries.
4767 [Steve Henson]
4768
4769 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
4770 [Steve Henson]
4771
4772 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
4773 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
4774 be read in.
4775 [Steve Henson]
4776
4777 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
4778 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
4779 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
4780 the new set of documenation files.
4781 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4782
4783 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
4784 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
4785 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
4786 number of arguments.
4787 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
4788
4789 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
4790 [Ben Laurie]
4791
4792 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
4793 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
4794 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4795
4796 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
4797 [Ben Laurie]
4798
4799 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
4800 nextstep
4801 ncr-scde
4802 unixware-2.0
4803 unixware-2.0-pentium
4804 sco5-cc.
4805 [Ben Laurie]
4806
4807 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
4808 before they are needed.
4809 [Ben Laurie]
4810
4811 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
4812 [Ben Laurie]
4813
4814
4815 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
4816
4817 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
4818 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
4819 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4820
4821 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
4822 [Paul Sutton]
4823
4824 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
4825 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
4826 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4827
4828 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
4829 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
4830 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
4831
4832 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
4833 when "ssleay" is still not found.
4834 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
