4
5 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [xx XXX 1999]
6
7 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8 the 'enc' command.
9 [Steve Henson]
10
11 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
12 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
13 allocation was originated. Also updated sid code to be multi-
14 thread-safe.
15 [Richard Levitte]
16
17 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
18 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
19 [Steve Henson]
20
21 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
22 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
23 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
24 manpages and fix a few bugs.
25 [Steve Henson]
26
27 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
28 [Steve Henson]
29
30 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
31 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
32 [Steve Henson]
33
34 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
35 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
36 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
37 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
38 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
39 doing things this way a fair degree of compatability can be
40 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
41 using the new 'x509' options.
42
43 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
44 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
45 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
46 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
47 for all purposes.
48 [Steve Henson]
49
50 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD). The
51 problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working since
52 SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced with
53 non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95% performance
54 improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
55 [Mark Cox]
56
57 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
58 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
59 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
60 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
61 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
62 the effective key length. In this case the effective key lenth can still
63 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
64 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
65 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
66 the key length and effective key length are equal.
67 [Steve Henson]
68
69 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
70 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
71 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
72 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
73 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
74 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
75 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
76 [Steve Henson]
77
78 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
79 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
80 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
81 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
82 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
83 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
84 openssl.cnf for more info.
85 [Steve Henson]
86
87 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
88 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
89 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
90 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
91 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
92 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
93 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
94 md should be large enough anyway.
95 [Bodo Moeller]
96
97 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
98 for handling the random seed file.
99
100 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
101 ca,
102 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its `-rand' option),
103 s_client,
104 s_server,
105 x509 (when signing).
106 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
107 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
108 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
109
110 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
111 of each file listed in the `-rand' option. The function as previously
112 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
113 that support `-rand'.
114 [Bodo Moeller]
115
116 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
117 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
118 [Bodo Moeller]
119
120 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
121 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
122 [Bill Perry]
123
124 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
125 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
126 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
127 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
128 is suitable.
129 [Steve Henson]
130
131 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
132 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
133 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
134 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
135 [Steve Henson]
136
137 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
138 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
139 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
140 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
141 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
142 print out all the purposes.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
146 functions.
147 [Steve Henson]
148
149 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
150 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
151 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
152 single function call.
153 [Steve Henson]
154
155 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
156 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
157 [Andy Polyakov]
158
159 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
160 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
161 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
162 [Steve Henson]
163
164 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
165 when producing the local key id.
166 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
167
168 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
169 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
170 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
171 "server.pem".
172 [Steve Henson]
173
174 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
175 a public key to be input or output. For example:
176 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
177 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
178 [Steve Henson]
179
180 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
181 in the message. This was handled by allowing
182 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
183 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
184
185 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
186 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
187 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
188 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
189
190 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
191 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
192 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
193 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
194 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
195 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
196 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
197 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
198 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
199 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
200 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
201 trivial: move one line.
202 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
203
204 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
205 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
206 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
207 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
208 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
209 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
210 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
211 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
212 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
213 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
214 with an event loop for example.
215 [Steve Henson]
216
217 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
218 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
219 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
220 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
221 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
222 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
223 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
224 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
225 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
226 [Steve Henson]
227
228 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
229 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
230 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
231 no longer acesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
232 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
233 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
234 [Steve Henson]
235
236 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
237 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
238 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
239 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
240
241 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
242 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
243 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
244 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
245 key generation.
246 [Steve Henson]
247
248 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
249 (still largely untested)
250 [Bodo Moeller]
251
252 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
253 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
254 [Steve Henson]
255
256 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
257 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
258 [Steve Henson]
259
260 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
261 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
262 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
263 [Bodo Moeller]
264
265 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
266 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
267 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
268 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
269 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
270 [Steve Henson]
271
272 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
273 [Andy Polyakov]
274
275 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
276 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
277 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
278 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
279 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
280 in ca.
281 [Steve Henson]
282
283 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
284 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
285 1.OU="Unit name 1"
286 2.OU="Unit name 2"
287 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
288 [Steve Henson]
289
290 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
291 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
292 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
293 are otherwise ignored at present.
294 [Steve Henson]
295
296 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
297 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
298 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
299 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
300 copied until the next read.
301 [Steve Henson]
302
303 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
304 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
305 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
306 [Steve Henson]
307
308 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
309 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
310 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
311 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
312 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
313 associated functions.
314 [Steve Henson]
315
316 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
317 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
318 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
319 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
320 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
321 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
322 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
323 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
324 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
325 memory BIOSs.
326 [Steve Henson]
327
328 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
329 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
330 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
331 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
332 [Bodo Moeller]
333
334 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
335 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
336 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
337 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
338 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
339 functionality.
340 [Steve Henson]
341
342 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
343 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
344 under Win32.
345 [Steve Henson]
346
347 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
348 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
349 extensions to be obtained and added.
350 [Steve Henson]
351
352 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
353 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
354 [Bodo Moeller]
355
356 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
357
358 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
359 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
360
361 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
362 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
363
364 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
365 program.
366 [Steve Henson]
367
368 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
369 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
370 DH parameters contain its length).
371
372 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
373 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
374 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
375 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
376 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
377 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
378 utter importance to use
379 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
380 or
381 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
382 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
383 attacks may become possible!
384 [Bodo Moeller]
385
386 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
387 [Bodo Moeller]
388
389 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
390 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
391 [Steve Henson]
392
393 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
394 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
395 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
396 or long name.
397 [Steve Henson]
398
399 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
400 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
401 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
402 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
403 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
404 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
405 private key operations.
406 [Steve Henson]
407
408 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
409 [Andy Polyakov]
410
411 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
412 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
413 to
414 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
415 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
416 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
417 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
418 the password callback is called.
419 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
420
421 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
422
423 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
424 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
425 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
426 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
427 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
428 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
429 this will work.
430
431 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
432 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
433 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
434 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
435 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
436 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
437 [Bodo Moeller]
438
439 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
440 [Andy Polyakov]
441
442 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
443 delete an unused file.
444 [Ulf Möller]
445
446 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
447 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
448 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
449 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
450 [Steve Henson]
451
452 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
453 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
454 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
455 of an error.
456 [Bodo Moeller]
457
458 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
459 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
460 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
461
462 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
463 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
464 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
465 comparison" warnings.
466 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
467 [Steve Henson]
468
469 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
470 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
471 derived keys are printed to stderr.
472 [Steve Henson]
473
474 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
475 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
476
477 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
478 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
479
480 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
481 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
482 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
483
484 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
485 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
486 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
487 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
488 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
489 this bug.
490 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
491
492 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
493 The interface is as follows:
494 Applications can use
495 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
496 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
497 "off" is now the default.
498 The library internally uses
499 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
500 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
501 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
502
503 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
504 even the default) are now avoided.
505
506 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
507 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
508 than just having a counter.
509
510 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
511
512 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
513 extensions.
514 [Bodo Moeller]
515
516 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
517 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
518 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
519 Initial "mode" flags are:
520
521 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
522 a single record has been written.
523 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
524 retries use the same buffer location.
525 (But all of the contents must be
526 copied!)
527 [Bodo Moeller]
528
529 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_mode ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_mode
530 worked.
531
532 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
533 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
534
535 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
536 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
537 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
538 [Steve Henson]
539
540 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
541 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
542 test programs.
543 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
544
545 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
546 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
547 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
548 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
549 point to the end.
550 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
551 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
552
553 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
554 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
555 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
556 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
557 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
558 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
559 [Steve Henson]
560
561 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
562 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
563 necessary function names.
564 [Steve Henson]
565
566 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
567 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
568 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
569 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
570 [Bodo Moeller]
571
572 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
573 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
574 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
575 [Steve Henson]
576
577 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
578 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
579 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
580 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
581 such programs?)
582 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
583 need locks.
584 [Bodo Moeller]
585
586 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
587 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
588 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
589 [Bodo Moeller]
590
591 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
592 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
593 appropriate.
594 [Bodo Moeller]
595
596 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
597 for the encoded length.
598 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
599
600 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
601 [Steve Henson]
602
603 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
604 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
605 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
606 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
607 [Steve Henson]
608
609 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
610 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
611 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
612
613 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
614 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
615 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
616 unusual formatting.
617 [Steve Henson]
618
619 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
620 to use the new extension code.
621 [Steve Henson]
622
623 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
624 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
625 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
626 constant.
627 [Steve Henson]
628
629 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
630 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
631 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
632 [Bodo Moeller]
633
634 #if 0
635 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
636 [Ben Laurie]
637 #else
638 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
639 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
640 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
641 #endif
642
643 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
644 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
645 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
646 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
647 [Ben Laurie]
648
649 *) DES library cleanups.
650 [Ulf Möller]
651
652 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
653 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
654 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
655 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
656 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
657 of v2.0.
658 [Steve Henson]
659
660 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
661 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
662 [Bodo Moeller]
663
664 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
665 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
666 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
667 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
668 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
669 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
670 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
671 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
672 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
673 [Steve Henson]
674
675 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
676 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
677 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
678 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
679 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
680 value doesn't matter.
681 [Steve Henson]
682
683 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
684 support mutable.
685 [Ben Laurie]
686
687 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
688 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
689 "linux-sparc" configuration.
690 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
691
692 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
693 [Ulf Möller]
694
695 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
696 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
697 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
698
699 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
700 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
701
702 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
703 [Ben Laurie]
704
705 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
706 [Ben Laurie]
707
708 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
709 [Ben Laurie]
710
711 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
712 [Bodo Moeller]
713
714
715 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
716
717 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
718
719 *) Updated some demos.
720 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
721
722 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
723 [Wu Zhigang]
724
725 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
726 [Steve Henson]
727
728 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
729 [Steve Henson]
730
731 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
732 instead of using a fixed path.
733 [Bodo Moeller]
734
735 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
736 [Andy Polyakov]
737
738 *) Improvements for VMS support.
739 [Richard Levitte]
740
741
742 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
743
744 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
745 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
746 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
747
748 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
749 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
750 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
751 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
752 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
753 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
754 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
755 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
756 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
757 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
758 [Steve Henson]
759
760 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
761 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
762 [Steve Henson]
763
764 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
765 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
766 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
767 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
768 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
769
770 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
771 [Bodo Moeller]
772
773 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
774 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
775 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
776 [Steve Henson]
777
778 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
779 [Ben Laurie]
780
781 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
782 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
783 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
784 key elements as negative integers.
785 [Steve Henson]
786
787 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
788 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
789
790 *) VMS support.
791 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
792
793 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
794 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
795 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
796 [Steve Henson]
797
798 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
799 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
800 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
801 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
802 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
803 [Bodo Moeller]
804
805 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
806 [Ulf Möller]
807
808 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
809 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
810 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
811 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
812
813 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
814 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
815 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
816
817 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
818 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
819 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
820 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
821 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
822 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
823 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
824 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
825 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
826
827 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
828 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
829 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
830 does not influence s as it used to.
831
832 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
833 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
834 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
835 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
836 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
837 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
838 [Bodo Moeller]
839
840 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
841 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
842 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
843 key type.
844 [Steve Henson]
845
846 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
847 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
848 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
849 and 'x509').
850 [Steve Henson]
851
852 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
853 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
854 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
855 extension option.
856 [Steve Henson]
857
858 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
859 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
860 [Ben Laurie]
861
862 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
863 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
864
865 *) Support Mingw32.
866 [Ulf Möller]
867
868 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
869 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
870
871 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
872 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
873
874 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
875 [Ulf Möller]
876
877 *) Update HPUX configuration.
878 [Anonymous]
879
880 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
881 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
882
883 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
884 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
885 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
886 DER-encoded.)
887 [Bodo Moeller]
888
889 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
890 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
891 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
892 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
893 now it really counts the depth.
894 [Bodo Moeller]
895
896 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
897 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
898 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
899 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
900 didn't match the private key).
901
902 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
903 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
904 connection using the SSL_CTX).
905 [Bodo Moeller]
906
907 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
908 [Ulf Möller]
909
910 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
911 David Harris.
912 [Bodo Moeller]
913
914 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
915 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
916 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
917 [Bodo Moeller]
918
919 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
920 [Bodo Moeller]
921
922 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
923 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
924 such as /usr/local/bin.
925 [Bodo Moeller]
926
927 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
928 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
929
930 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
931 [Ulf Möller]
932
933 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
934 extension adding in x509 utility.
935 [Steve Henson]
936
937 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
938 [Ulf Möller]
939
940 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
941 prototypes.
942 [Steve Henson]
943
944 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
945 [Ulf Möller]
946
947 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
948 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
949 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
950 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
951 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
952 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
953 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
954 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
955 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
956 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
957 [Steve Henson]
958
959 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
960 [Bodo Moeller]
961
962 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
963 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
964 [Bodo Moeller]
965
966 *) Fix some race conditions.
967 [Bodo Moeller]
968
969 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
970 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
971 [Steve Henson]
972
973 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
974 [Ulf Möller]
975
976 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
977 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
978 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
979 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
980
981 *) Fix lots of warnings.
982 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
983
984 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
985 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
986 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
987
988 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
989 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
990
991 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
992 [Ulf Möller]
993
994 *) Fix typos in error codes.
995 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
996
997 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
998 [Ulf Möller]
999
1000 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
1001 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
1002
1003 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
1004 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
1005 [Steve Henson]
1006
1007 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
1008 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
1009 [Ben Laurie]
1010
1011 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
1012 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
1013 [Steve Henson]
1014
1015 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
1016 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
1017 [Steve Henson]
1018
1019 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
1020 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
1021 [Steve Henson]
1022
1023 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
1024 support typesafe stack.
1025 [Steve Henson]
1026
1027 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
1028 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
1029
1030 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
1031 old X509V3 handling code.
1032 [Steve Henson]
1033
1034 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
1035 [Ulf Möller]
1036
1037 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
1038 [Bodo Moeller]
1039
1040 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
1041 [Ben Laurie]
1042
1043 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
1044 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
1045
1046 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
1047 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
1048 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
1049 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
1050 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
1051 [Ben Laurie]
1052
1053 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
1054 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
1055 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
1056 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
1057 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
1058
1059 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
1060 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
1061 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
1062 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1063
1064 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
1065 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
1066 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
1067 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1068
1069 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
1070 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
1071 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
1072 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
1073 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
1074 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
1075 [Bodo Moeller]
1076
1077 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
1078 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
1079 [Bodo Moeller]
1080
1081 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
1082 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
1083 [Ulf Möller]
1084
1085 *) Tweaks to Configure
1086 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
1087
1088 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
1089 yet...
1090 [Steve Henson]
1091
1092 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
1093 [Ulf Möller]
1094
1095 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
1096 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
1097 [Ulf Möller]
1098
1099 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
1100 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
1101 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
1102 [Bodo Moeller]
1103
1104 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
1105 [Bodo Moeller]
1106
1107 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
1108 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
1109 [Steve Henson]
1110
1111 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
1112 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
1113 to library startup routines.
1114 [Steve Henson]
1115
1116 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
1117 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
1118 codes along the way.
1119 [Steve Henson]
1120
1121 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
1122 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
1123 objects to objects.h
1124 [Steve Henson]
1125
1126 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
1127 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
1128 [Steve Henson]
1129
1130 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
1131 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
1132
1133 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
1134 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
1135 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
1136
1137 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
1138 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
1139 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
1140
1141 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
1142 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
1143 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
1144
1145
1146 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
1147
1148 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
1149 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
1150 [Ben Laurie]
1151
1152 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
1153 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
1154 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
1155 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
1156 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
1157
1158 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
1159 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
1160 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
1161 document.
1162 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
1163
1164 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
1165 Malloc, Free.
1166 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
1167
1168 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
1169 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
1170
1171 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
1172 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
1173 if someone would make that last step automatic.
1174 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
1175
1176 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
1177 [Ben Laurie]
1178
1179 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
1180 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
1181 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
1182 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
1183 [Steve Henson]
1184
1185 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
1186 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
1187 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
1188 [Steve Henson]
1189
1190 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
1191 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
1192 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
1193 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
1194 installed as `perl').
1195 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
1196
1197 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
1198 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
1199
1200 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
1201 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
1202 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
1203 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
1204 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
1205 [Steve Henson]
1206
1207 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
1208 [Ben Laurie]
1209
1210 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
1211 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
1212 is horrible: I feel ill....
1213 [Steve Henson]
1214
1215 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
1216 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
1217 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
1218 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
1219 [Steve Henson]
1220
1221 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
1222 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1223
1224 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
1225 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
1226 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
1227 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1228
1229 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
1230 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
1231 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
1232 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
1233 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
1234 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
1235 openssl_bio.xs.
1236 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1237
1238 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
1239 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
1240
1241 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
1242 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
1243
1244 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
1245 [Ben Laurie]
1246
1247 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
1248 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
1249 in CRLs.
1250 [Steve Henson]
1251
1252 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
1253 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
1254 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
1255 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
1256 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
1257 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
1258 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
1259 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
1260 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
1261 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
1262 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1263
1264 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
1265 [Ben Laurie]
1266
1267 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
1268 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
1269 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
1270 for linking it into DSOs.
1271 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1272
1273 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
1274 Fixed.
1275 [Ben Laurie]
1276
1277 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
1278 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
1279 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
1280 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
1281 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
1282 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1283
1284 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
1285 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
1286 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
1287 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
1288 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
1289 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
1290 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1291
1292 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
1293 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
1294 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
1295 encryption.
1296 [Ben Laurie]
1297
1298 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
1299 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
1300 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
1301 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
1302 [Steve Henson]
1303
1304 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
1305 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
1306 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
1307 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
1308 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
1309 field as blank.
1310 [Steve Henson]
1311
1312 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
1313 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
1314 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
1315 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
1316 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1317
1318 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
1319 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
1320 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
1321
1322 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
1323 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
1324
1325 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
1326 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
1327 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
1328 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
1329 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
1330 [Steve Henson]
1331
1332 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
1333 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
1334 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
1335 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
1336 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
1337 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
1338 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
1339 [Ben Laurie]
1340
1341 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
1342 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
1343 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
1344 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
1345 [Ben Laurie]
1346
1347 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
1348 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
1349
1350 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
1351 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
1352 [Steve Henson]
1353
1354 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
1355 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
1356 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
1357 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
1358 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
1359 (e.g. s_server).
1360 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
1361 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
1362 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
1363 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
1364 no way to reconfigure them.
1365 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
1366 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
1367 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
1368 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
1369 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
1370 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1371
1372 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
1373 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
1374 recognized by the users.
1375 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1376
1377 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
1378 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
1379 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
1380 already masked variable.
1381 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
1382
1383 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
1384 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
1385
1386 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
1387 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
1388 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
1389 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
1390
1391 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
1392 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
1393 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1394
1395 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
1396 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
1397 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
1398 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
1399 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
1400 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
1401 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
1402 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
1403 now, too.
1404 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1405
1406 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
1407 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
1408 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1409
1410 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
1411 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
1412 config file.
1413 [Steve Henson]
1414
1415 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
1416 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
1417
1418 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
1419 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
1420 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
1421 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
1422 [Ben Laurie]
1423
1424 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
1425 [Steve Henson]
1426
1427 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
1428 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
1429
1430 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
1431 [Ben Laurie]
1432
1433 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
1434 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
1435 [Steve Henson]
1436
1437 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
1438 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
1439 [Steve Henson]
1440
1441 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
1442 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
1443 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
1444 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
1445 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
1446 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
1447 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
1448 Ben Laurie]
1449
1450 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
1451 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
1452
1453 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
1454 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
1455 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
1456 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
1457 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
1458
1459 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
1460 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
1461 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
1462 [Steve Henson]
1463
1464 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
1465 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
1466 an example.
1467 [Steve Henson]
1468
1469 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
1470 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
1471 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
1472
1473 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
1474 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
1475 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
1476 build instructions.
1477 [Steve Henson]
1478
1479 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
1480 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
1481 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
1482 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
1483 [Steve Henson]
1484
1485 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
1486 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
1487 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
1488 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
1489 [Ben Laurie]
1490
1491 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
1492 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
1493 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
1494 so it wasn't spotted.
1495 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
1496
1497 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
1498 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
1499 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
1500 vectors if you have them.
1501 [Ben Laurie]
1502
1503 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
1504 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
1505 [Ben Laurie]
1506
1507 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
1508 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
1509 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
1510 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
1511 If you do a:
1512 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
1513 it will update them.
1514 [Steve Henson]
1515
1516 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
1517 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
1518 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
1519 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
1520 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
1521 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
1522 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
1523 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1524
1525 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
1526 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
1527 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
1528 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
1529 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
1530 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
1531 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
1532 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
1533 the crypto/md/ stuff).
1534 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1535
1536 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
1537 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
1538 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
1539 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
1540 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
1541 [Steve Henson]
1542
1543 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
1544 INTEGER code.
1545 [Steve Henson]
1546
1547 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
1548 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
1549
1550 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
1551 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
1552
1553 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
1554 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
1555 [Ben Laurie]
1556
1557 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
1558 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
1559
1560 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
1561 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
1562
1563 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
1564 [Steve Henson]
1565
1566 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
1567 few typos.
1568 [Steve Henson]
1569
1570 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
1571 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
1572 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
1573 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
1574
1575 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
1576 [Steve Henson]
1577
1578 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
1579 [Steve Henson]
1580
1581 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
1582 [Steve Henson]
1583
1584 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
1585 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
1586 [Steve Henson]
1587
1588 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
1589 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
1590 CA extensions.
1591 [Steve Henson]
1592
1593 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
1594 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
1595 [Steve Henson]
1596
1597 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
1598 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
1599 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
1600 [Steve Henson]
1601
1602 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
1603 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
1604 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
1605 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
1606 properly to be processed.
1607 [Steve Henson]
1608
1609 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
1610 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
1611 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
1612 [Ben Laurie]
1613
1614 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
1615 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
1616
1617 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
1618 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
1619 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
1620 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
1621 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
1622 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
1623 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
1624 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
1625 or delete all the .err files.
1626 [Steve Henson]
1627
1628 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
1629 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
1630 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
1631 to regenerate it if needed.
1632 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
1633 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
1634
1635 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
1636 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
1637
1638 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
1639 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
1640 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
1641 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
1642 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
1643 [Steve Henson]
1644
1645 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
1646 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
1647
1648 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
1649 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
1650
1651 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
1652 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
1653 error, but didn't set one).
1654 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
1655
1656 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
1657 [Ben Laurie]
1658
1659 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
1660 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
1661 [Steve Henson]
1662
1663 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
1664 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
1665
1666 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
1667 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
1668 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
1669 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
1670 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
1671 OID is not part of the table.
1672 [Steve Henson]
1673
1674 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
1675 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
1676 [Ben Laurie]
1677
1678 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
1679 [Ben Laurie]
1680
1681 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
1682 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
1683 was "1234").
1684 [Steve Henson]
1685
1686 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
1687 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
1688
1689 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
1690 NULL pointers.
1691 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
1692
1693 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
1694 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
1695
1696 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
1697 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
1698
1699 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
1700 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
1701
1702 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
1703 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
1704 [Ben Laurie]
1705
1706 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
1707 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
1708 [Steve Henson]
1709
1710 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
1711 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1712
1713 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
1714 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1715
1716 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
1717 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1718
1719 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
1720 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1721
1722 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
1723 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
1724 unused in the certificate verification process.
1725 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1726
1727 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
1728 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
1729 [Steve Henson]
1730
1731 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
1732 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
1733 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
1734
1735 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
1736 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
1737 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
1738 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
1739 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
1740
1741 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
1742 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
1743 [Steve Henson]
1744
1745 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
1746 [Steve Henson]
1747
1748 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
1749 [Paul Sutton]
1750
1751 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
1752 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
1753
1754 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
1755 [Ben Laurie]
1756
1757 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
1758 [Ben Laurie]
1759
1760 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
1761 [Ben Laurie]
1762
1763 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
1764 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
1765 other error libraries.
1766 [Steve Henson]
1767
1768 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
1769 [Steve Henson]
1770
1771 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
1772 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
1773 be read in.
1774 [Steve Henson]
1775
1776 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
1777 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
1778 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
1779 the new set of documenation files.
1780 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1781
1782 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
1783 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
1784 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
1785 number of arguments.
1786 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
1787
1788 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
1789 [Ben Laurie]
1790
1791 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
1792 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
1793 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
1794
1795 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
1796 [Ben Laurie]
1797
1798 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
1799 nextstep
1800 ncr-scde
1801 unixware-2.0
1802 unixware-2.0-pentium
1803 sco5-cc.
1804 [Ben Laurie]
1805
1806 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
1807 before they are needed.
1808 [Ben Laurie]
1809
1810 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
1811 [Ben Laurie]
1812
1813
1814 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
1815
1816 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
1817 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
1818 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1819
1820 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
1821 [Paul Sutton]
1822
1823 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
1824 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
1825 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1826
1827 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
1828 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
1829 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
1830
1831 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
1832 when "ssleay" is still not found.
1833 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1834
1835 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
1836 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
1837
1838 *) Updated the README file.
1839 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1840
1841 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
1842 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
1843 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1844
1845 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
1846 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
1847 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1848
1849 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
1850 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
1851 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
1852 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
1853 o removed obsolete TODO file
1854 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
1855 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1856
1857 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
1858 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
1859 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
1860 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
1861 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
1862 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
1863 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1864
1865 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
1866 [Mark J. Cox]
1867
1868 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
1869 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
1870 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
1871 summer 1998.
1872 [The OpenSSL Project]
1873
1874
1875 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
1876
1877 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
1878 [Eric A. Young]
1879
1880 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
1881 [Eric A. Young]
1882
1883 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
1884 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
1885 [Eric A. Young]
1886
1887 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
1888 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
1889 available).
1890 [Eric A. Young]
1891
1892 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
1893 binary structures
1894 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
1895
1896 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
1897 [Eric A. Young]
1898
1899 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
1900 [Eric A. Young]
1901
1902 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
1903 [Eric A. Young]
1904
1905 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
1906 [Eric A. Young]
1907
1908 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
1909 [Eric A. Young]
1910
1911 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
1912 [Eric A. Young]
1913
1914 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
1915 [Eric A. Young]
1916
1917 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
1918 [Eric A. Young]
1919
1920 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
1921 [Eric A. Young]
1922
1923 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
1924 [Eric A. Young]
1925
1926 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
1927 [Eric A. Young]
1928
1929 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
1930 [Eric A. Young]
1931
1932 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
1933 [Eric A. Young]
1934
1935 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
1936 [Eric A. Young]
1937
1938 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
1939 [Eric A. Young]
1940
1941 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
1942 [Eric A. Young]
1943
1944 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
1945 [Eric A. Young]
1946
1947 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
1948 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
1949 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
1950 [Eric A. Young]
1951
1952 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
1953 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
1954 [Eric A. Young]
1955
1956 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
1957 [Eric A. Young]
1958
1959 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
1960 [Eric A. Young]
1961
1962 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
1963 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
1964 [Eric A. Young]
1965
1966 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
1967 [Eric A. Young]
1968
1969 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
1970 [Eric A. Young]
1971
1972 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
1973 bytes sent in the client random.
1974 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
1975
