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 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
180 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
181 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
182 [Steve Henson]
183
184 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
185 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
186 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
187 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
188 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
189 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
190 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
191 environment variables.
192
193 +) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
194 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
195 [Geoff]
196
197 +) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
198 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
199 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
200 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
201 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
202 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
203 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
204 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
205 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
206 ENGINE structure.
207 [Geoff]
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 [Steve Henson]
662 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
663
664 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
665 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
666 but the code is actually correct.
667 [Steve Henson]
668
669 +) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
670 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
671 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
672 [Bodo Moeller]
673
674 +) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
675 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
676 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
677 [Steve Henson]
678
679 +) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
680 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
681 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
682 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
683 [Lutz Jaenicke]
684
685 +) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
686 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
687 appear to exist.
688 [Steve Henson]
689
690 +) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
691 additional certificates supplied.
692 [Steve Henson]
693
694 +) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
695 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
696 signature against.
697 [Richard Levitte]
698
699 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
700 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
701 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
702 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
703 and leaves the highest bit random.
704 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
705
706 +) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
707 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
708 AES OIDs. Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in the "AES Ciphersuites
709 for TLS" draft-ietf-tls-ciphersuite-03.txt.
710 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
711
712 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
713 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
714 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
715 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
716 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
717 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
718 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
719 [Bodo Moeller]
720
721 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
722 [Ulf Moeller]
723
724 +) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
725 request to response.
726 [Steve Henson]
727
728 +) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
729 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
730 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
731 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
732 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
733 reponse and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
734 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
735 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
736 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
737 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
738 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
739 [Steve Henson]
740
741 +) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
742 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
743 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests tha public_key
744 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
745 [Steve Henson]
746
747 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
748 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
749 [Steve Henson]
750
751 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
752 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
753 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
754 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
755 headers.
756 [Richard Levitte]
757
758 +) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
759 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
760
761 +) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
762 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
763 reponse then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
764 [Steve Henson]
765
766 -) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
767 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
768 and break the signature.
769 [Steve Henson]
770 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
771
772 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
773 DH ciphersuites.
774 [Steve Henson]
775
776 +) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
777 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
778 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
779 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
780 <support@securenetterm.com>]
781
782 +) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
783 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
784 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
785 [Steve Henson]
786
787 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
788 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
789 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
790 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
791 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
792 [Bodo Moeller]
793
794 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
795 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
796
797 *) ./config script fixes.
798 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
799
800 +) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
801 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
802 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
803 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
804 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
805 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
806 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
807 <support@securenetterm.com>]
808
809 +) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
810 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
811 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
812 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
813 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
814 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
815 [Steve Henson]
816
817 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
818 [Bodo Moeller]
819
820 +) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
821 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
822 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
823 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
824 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
825 printout format cleaned up.
826 [Steve Henson]
827
828 +) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
829 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
830 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
831 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
832 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
833 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
834 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
835 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
836 [Steve Henson]
837
838 +) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
839 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
840 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
841 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
842 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
843 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
844 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
845 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
846 [Steve Henson]
847
848 +) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
849 extensions from a separate configuration file.
850 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
851 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
852 section to use.
853 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
854
855 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
856 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
857 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
858 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
859 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
860
861 +) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
862 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
863 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
864 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
865 [Steve Henson]
866
867 +) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
868 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
869 the given serial number (according to the index file).
870 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
871 in the index file.
872 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
873
874 +) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
875 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
876 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
877 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
878
879 +) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
880 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
881
882 +) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
883 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
884 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
885 [Steve Henson]
886
887 +) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
888 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
889 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
890 [Bodo Moeller]
891
892 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
893 call failed, free the DSA structure.
894 [Bodo Moeller]
895
896 +) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
897 file name and line number information in additional arguments
898 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
899 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
900 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
901 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
902 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
903 functions are provided:
904
905 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
906 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
907 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
908 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
909
910 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
911 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
912 extended allocation function is enabled.
913 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
914 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
915 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
916
917 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
918 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
919 [Steve Henson]
920
921 +) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
922 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
923 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
924 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
925 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
926 [Geoff Thorpe]
927
928 +) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
929 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
930 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
931 be queried.
932 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
933 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
934 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
935 [Lutz Jaenicke]
936
937 +) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
938 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
939 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
940 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
941 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
942 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
943 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
944 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
945 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
946 [Richard Levitte]
947
948 +) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
949 provide utility functions which an application needing
950 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
951 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
952 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
953
954 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
955 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
956 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
957 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
958 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
959 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
960 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
961 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
962 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
963
964 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
965 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
966 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
967 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
968 [Steve Henson]
969
970 +) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
971 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
972 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
973 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
974 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
975 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
976 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
977 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
978 will be added elsewhere.
979 [Steve Henson]
980
981 +) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
982 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
983 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
984 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
985 [Steve Henson]
986
987 +) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
988 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
989 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
990 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
991 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
992 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
993 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
994 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
995 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
996 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
997 to produce the required SET OF.
998 [Steve Henson]
999
1000 +) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
1001 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
1002 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
1003 [Richard Levitte]
1004
1005 +) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
1006 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
1007 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
1008 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
1009 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
1010 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
1011 [Steve Henson]
1012
1013 +) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
1014 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
1015 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
1016 [Steve Henson]
1017
1018 +) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
1019 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
1020 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
1021 [Richard Levitte]
1022
1023 +) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
1024 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
1025 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
1026 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
1027 code will still work when these eventually go away.
1028 [Steve Henson]
1029
1030 +) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
1031 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
1032 [Steve Henson]
1033
1034 +) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
1035 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
1036 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
1037 certifcates and CRLs.
1038 [Steve Henson]
1039
1040 +) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
1041 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
1042 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
1043 [Steve Henson]
1044
1045 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
1046 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
1047 when writing a 32767 byte record.
1048 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
1049
1050 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
1051 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
1052
1053 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
1054 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
1055 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
1056 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
1057 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
1058
1059 +) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
1060 entries for variables.
1061 [Steve Henson]
1062
1063 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
1064 [Bodo Moeller]
1065
1066 +) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
1067 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
1068 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
1069 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
1070 [Bodo Moeller]
1071
1072 +) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
1073 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
1074 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
1075 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
1076 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
1077 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
1078 [Bodo Moeller]
1079
1080 +) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
1081 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
1082
1083 +) Move common extension printing code to new function
1084 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
1085 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
1086 [Steve Henson]
1087
1088 +) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
1089 print routines.
1090 [Steve Henson]
1091
1092 +) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
1093 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
1094 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
1095 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
1096 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
1097 order did not reflect the encoded order.
1098 [Steve Henson]
1099
1100 +) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
1101 [Steve Henson]
1102
1103 +) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
1104 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
1105 for now but they will eventually go away.
1106 [Steve Henson]
1107
1108 +) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
1109 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
1110 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
1111 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
1112 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
1113 has also been converted to the new form.
1114 [Steve Henson]
1115
1116 +) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
1117 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
1118 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
1119 for negative moduli.
1120 [Bodo Moeller]
1121
1122 +) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
1123 of not touching the result's sign bit.
1124 [Bodo Moeller]
1125
1126 +) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
1127 set.
1128 [Bodo Moeller]
1129
1130 +) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
1131 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
1132 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
1133 type-specific callbacks.
1134 [Geoff Thorpe]
1135
1136 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
1137 [Ulf Möller]
1138
1139 +) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
1140 RFC 2712.
1141 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
1142 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
1143
1144 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
1145 [Ulf Möller]
1146
1147 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
1148 [Bodo Moeller]
1149
1150 +) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
1151 in sections depending on the subject.
1152 [Richard Levitte]
1153
1154 +) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
1155 Windows.
1156 [Richard Levitte]
1157
1158 +) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
1159 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
1160 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
1161 be handled deterministically).
1162 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1163
1164 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
1165 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
1166 [Bodo Moeller]
1167
1168 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
1169 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
1170 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
1171 result of the server certificate verification.)
1172 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1173
1174 +) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
1175 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
1176 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
1177 [Bodo Moeller]
1178
1179 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
1180 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
1181 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
1182 [Bodo Moeller]
1183
1184 *) Fix SSL_peek:
1185 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
1186 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
1187 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
1188 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
1189 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
1190 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
1191 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
1192 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
1193 [Bodo Moeller]
1194
1195 +) New function BN_kronecker.
1196 [Bodo Moeller]
1197
1198 +) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
1199 positive unless both parameters are zero.
1200 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
1201 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
1202 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
1203 [Bodo Moeller]
1204
1205 +) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
1206 sign of the number in question.
1207
1208 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
1209
1210 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
1211 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
1212 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
1213 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
1214 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
1215 [Bodo Moeller]
1216
1217 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
1218 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
1219 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
1220 happening the other way round.
1221 [Geoff Thorpe]
1222
1223 +) New function BN_swap.
1224 [Bodo Moeller]
1225
1226 +) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
1227 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
1228 results on negative inputs.
1229 [Bodo Moeller]
1230
1231 +) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
1232 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
1233 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
1234 [Bodo Moeller]
1235
1236 +) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
1237 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
1238 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
1239 and add new functions:
1240
1241 BN_nnmod
1242 BN_mod_sqr
1243 BN_mod_add
1244 BN_mod_add_quick
1245 BN_mod_sub
1246 BN_mod_sub_quick
1247 BN_mod_lshift1
1248 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
1249 BN_mod_lshift
1250 BN_mod_lshift_quick
1251
1252 These functions always generate non-negative results.
1253
1254 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
1255 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
1256
1257 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
1258 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
1259 be reduced modulo m.
1260 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1261
1262 +) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1263 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1264 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1265 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1266 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1267 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1268 differing sizes.
1269 [Richard Levitte]
1270
1271 +) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
1272 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
1273 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
1274 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
1275 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
1276
1277 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
1278 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
1279 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
1280 cause any problems.
1281 [Bodo Moeller]
1282
1283 +) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
1284 [Richard Levitte]
1285
1286 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
1287 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
1288 [Bodo Moeller]
1289
1290 +) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
1291 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
1292 [Richard Levitte]
1293
1294 +) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
1295 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
1296 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
1297 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
1298 time)
1299 [Richard Levitte]
1300
1301 +) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
1302 [Richard Levitte]
1303
1304 +) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
1305 [Richard Levitte]
1306
1307 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
1308 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
1309 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
1310 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
1311 [Richard Levitte]
1312
1313 +) Add the following functions:
1314
1315 ENGINE_load_cswift()
1316 ENGINE_load_chil()
1317 ENGINE_load_atalla()
1318 ENGINE_load_nuron()
1319 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
1320
1321 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
1322 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
1323 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
1324 libraries unless it's really needed.
1325
1326 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
1327 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
1328 declarations (they differed!).
1329 [Richard Levitte]
1330
1331 +) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
1332 [Richard Levitte]
1333
1334 +) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
1335 [Richard Levitte]
1336
1337 +) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
1338 [Bodo Moeller]
1339
1340 +) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
1341 identity, and test if they are actually available.
1342 [Richard Levitte]
1343
1344 +) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
1345 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
1346
1347 +) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
1348 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
1349 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1350
1351 +) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
1352 little-endian MIPS.
1353 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
1354
1355 +) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
1356 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
1357 [Richard Levitte]
1358
1359 +) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
1360 [Richard Levitte]
1361
1362 +) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
1363 [Richard Levitte]
1364
1365 +) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
1366 [Ben Laurie]
1367
1368 +) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
1369 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
1370 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
1371
1372 +) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
1373 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
1374 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
1375 different shared library filenames on each system.
1376 [Geoff Thorpe]
1377
1378 +) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
1379 [Richard Levitte]
1380
1381 +) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX
1382 [Richard Levitte]
1383
1384 +) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
1385 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
1386 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
1387 of two sections.
1388 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
1389
1390 +) NCONF changes.
1391 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
1392 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
1393 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
1394 binary backward compatibility.
1395 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
1396 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
1397 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
1398 LDAP server.
1399 [Richard Levitte]
1400
1401 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
1402 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
1403
1404 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
1405
1406 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
1407 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
1408 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
1409 that.
1410
1411 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
1412
1413 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
1414
1415 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
1416 static ones.
1417 [Richard Levitte]
1418
1419 +) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
1420 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
1421 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
1422 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
1423 this case.
1424 [Steve Henson]
1425
1426 +) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
1427 [Ben Laurie]
1428
1429 +) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
1430 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
1431 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
1432 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
1433 set.
1434 [Steve Henson]
1435
1436 +) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
1437 [Richard Levitte]
1438
1439 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
1440
1441 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
1442 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
1443 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
1444 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
1445 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
1446
1447 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
1448 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
1449 matter what.
1450 [Richard Levitte]
1451
1452 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
1453 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1454
1455 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
1456
1457 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
1458 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
1459 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
1460 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
1461 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
1462 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
1463 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
1464 by the Finished messages.
1465 [Bodo Moeller]
1466
1467 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
1468 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
1469
1470 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
1471 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
1472 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
1473 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
1474 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
1475 appropriately.
1476 [Steve Henson]
1477
1478 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
1479 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
1480 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
1481 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
1482 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
1483 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
1484 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
1485 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
1486 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
1487 together.
1488 [Steve Henson]
1489
1490 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
1491 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
1492 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
1493 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
1494
1495 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
1496 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
1497 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
1498 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
1499 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
1500 the answer.
1501
1502 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
1503 been tested well enough.
1504 [Richard Levitte]
1505
1506 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
1507 it can return incorrect results.
1508 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
1509 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
1510 [Bodo Moeller]
1511
1512 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
1513 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
1514 include zero length content when signing messages.
1515 [Steve Henson]
1516
1517 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
1518 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
1519 [Bodo Möller]
1520
1521 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
1522 [Richard Levitte]
1523
1524 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
1525 wrong sign.
1526 [Ulf Möller]
1527
1528 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
1529 packages. The default package contains applications, application
1530 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
1531 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
1532 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
1533 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
1534 [Richard Levitte]
1535
1536 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
1537 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
1538
1539 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
1540 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
1541
1542 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
1543 random number < q in the DSA library.
1544 [Ulf Möller]
1545
1546 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
1547 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
1548 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
1549 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
1550 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
1551 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
1552 just makes things more complicated.)
1553 [Bodo Moeller]
1554
1555 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
1556 from EGD.
1557 [Ben Laurie]
1558
1559 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
1560 work better on such systems.
1561 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
1562
1563 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
1564 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
1565 keyid to the certificates aux info.
1566 [Steve Henson]
1567
1568 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
1569 if there was more than one signature.
1570 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
1571
1572 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
1573 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
1574 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
1575 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
1576 [Richard Levitte]
1577
1578 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
1579 rather than always using the current time.
1580 [Steve Henson]
1581
1582 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
1583 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
1584 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
1585 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
1586 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
1587 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
1588
1589 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
1590 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
1591
1592 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
1593
1594 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
1595 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
1596 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
1597 the same hash value.
1598
1599 As a result various functions (which were all internal
1600 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
1601 structure. This will break anything that messed round
1602 with X509_STORE internally.
1603
1604 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
1605 exact match, rather than just subject name.
1606
1607 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
1608 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
1609 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
1610 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
1611 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
1612 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
1613 entirely (maybe later...).
1614
1615 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
1616
1617 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
1618 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
1619 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
1620 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
1621 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
1622 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
1623 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
1624 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
1625
1626 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
1627 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
1628
1629 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
1630 to customise the verify behaviour.
1631 [Steve Henson]
1632
1633 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
1634 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
1635 [Steve Henson]
1636
1637 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
1638 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
1639 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
1640 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
1641 request is improperly encoded.
1642 [Steve Henson]
1643
1644 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
1645 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
1646 BIO_write(b, ...).
1647
1648 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
1649 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
1650
1651 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
1652 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
1653 words set to zero.)
1654 [Bodo Moeller]
1655
1656 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
1657 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
1658 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
1659 [Bodo Moeller]
1660
1661 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
1662 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
1663 BIO/fp routines also added.
1664 [Steve Henson]
1665
1666 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
1667 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
1668
1669 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
1670 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
1671 demos/state_machine.
1672 [Ben Laurie]
1673
1674 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
1675 generation and verification.
1676 [Steve Henson]
1677
1678 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
1679 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
1680 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
1681 encode and decode it manually.
1682 [Steve Henson]
1683
1684 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
1685 compile under VC++.
1686 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
1687
1688 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
1689 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
1690 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
1691 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
1692
1693 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
1694 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
1695 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
1696 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
1697 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
1698 [Steve Henson]
1699
1700 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
1701 [Richard Levitte]
1702
1703 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
1704 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
1705 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
1706
1707 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
1708 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
1709 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
1710 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
1711 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
1712 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
1713 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
1714 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
1715
1716 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
1717 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
1718
1719 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
1720
1721 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
1722 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
1723 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
1724
1725 [Richard Levitte]
1726
1727 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
1728 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
1729 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
1730 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
1731 [Richard Levitte]
1732
1733 *) MD4 implemented.
1734 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
1735
1736 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
1737 [Richard Levitte]
1738
1739 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
1740 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
1741 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
1742 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
1743 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
1744 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
1745 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
1746 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
1747 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
1748 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
1749 short or long names are found.
1750 [Steve Henson]
1751
1752 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
1753 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
1754
1755 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
1756 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
1757 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
1758 version rollback attacks was not effective.
1759
1760 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
1761 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
1762 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
1763 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
1764 [Bodo Moeller]
1765
1766 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
1767 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
1768 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
1769 [Richard Levitte]
1770
1771 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
1772 these print out strings and name structures based on various
1773 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
1774 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
1775 to allow the various flags to be set.
1776 [Steve Henson]
1777
1778 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
1779 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
1780 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
1781 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
1782 dates to be checked.
1783 [Steve Henson]
1784
1785 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
1786 negative public key encodings) on by default,
1787 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
1788 [Steve Henson]
1789
1790 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
1791 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
1792 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
1793 [Steve Henson]
1794
1795 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
1796 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
1797 [Bodo Moeller]
1798
1799 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
1800 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
1801 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
1802 are always statically linked for now, but there are
1803 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
1804 This has been tested on Linux and True64.
1805 [Richard Levitte]
1806
1807 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
1808 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
1809 Random Numbers.
1810 [Ulf Möller]
1811
1812 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
1813 DSA key.
1814 [Steve Henson]
1815
1816 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
1817 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
1818 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
1819 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
1820 form signing output easier to verify.
1821 [Steve Henson]
1822
1823 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
1824 [Steve Henson]
1825
1826 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
1827 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
1828 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
1829 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
1830 are needed because all other string types have virtually
1831 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
1832 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
1833 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
1834 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
1835 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
1836 [Steve Henson]
1837
1838 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
1839
1840 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
1841 the syntax given in objects.README.
1842 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
1843 obj_mac.h.
1844 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
1845 obj_mac.h.
1846
1847 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
1848 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
1849 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
1850 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
1851 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
1852 consistent name changes.
1853 [Richard Levitte]
1854
1855 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
1856 [Bodo Moeller]
1857
1858 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
1859 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
1860 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
1861 environment variable, or the default random state file.
1862 [Richard Levitte]
1863
1864 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
1865 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
1866 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
1867 of safestack.h .
1868 [Steve Henson]
1869
1870 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
1871 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
1872 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
1873 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
1874 [Steve Henson]
1875
1876 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
1877 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
1878 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
1879 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
1880 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
1881 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
1882 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
1883 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
1884 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
1885 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
1886 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
1887 [Steve Henson]
1888
1889 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
1890 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
1891 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
1892 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
1893 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
1894 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
1895 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
1896 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
1897 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
1898 algorithm to openssl-dev.
1899 [Steve Henson]
1900
1901 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
1902 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
1903 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
1904 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
1905
1906 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
1907 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
1908 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
1909 omit any duplicate addresses.
1910 [Steve Henson]
1911
1912 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
1913 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
1914 [Bodo Moeller]
1915
1916 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
1917 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
1918 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
1919 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
1920 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
1921 [Bodo Moeller]
1922
1923 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
1924 software:
1925 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
1926 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
1927 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
1928 Free => OPENSSL_free
1929 [Richard Levitte]
1930
1931 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
1932 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
1933 [Bodo Moeller]
1934
1935 *) CygWin32 support.
1936 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
1937
1938 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
1939 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
1940 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
1941 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
1942 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
1943 approach.
1944 [Geoff Thorpe]
1945
1946 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
1947 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
1948 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
1949 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
1950 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
1951 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
1952 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
1953 [Geoff Thorpe]
1954
1955 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
1956 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
1957 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
1958 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
1959 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
1960 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
1961 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
1962 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
1963 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
1964 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
1965 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
1966 [Bodo Moeller]
1967
1968 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
1969 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
1970 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
1971 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
1972 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
1973
1974 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
1975 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
1976 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
1977 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
1978 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
1979
1980 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
1981 ciphers.
1982
1983 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
1984 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
1985 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
1986 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
1987
1988 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
1989
1990 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
1991 of macros.
1992
1993 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
1994 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
1995 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
1996 flags.
1997
1998 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
1999 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
2000 any installed hardware versions can.
2001 [Steve Henson]
2002
2003 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
2004 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
2005 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
2006 number.
2007 [Bodo Moeller]
2008
2009 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
2010 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
2011 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
2012 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
2013 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
2014
2015 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
2016 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
2017 [Steve Henson]
2018
2019 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
2020 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
2021 [Richard Levitte]
2022
2023 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
2024 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
2025 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
2026 features.
2027 [Steve Henson]
2028
2029 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
2030 [Ulf Möller]
2031
2032 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
2033 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
2034 but no ssl client purpose.
2035 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
2036
2037 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
2038 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
2039 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
2040 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
2041 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
2042 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
2043 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
2044 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
2045 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
2046 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
2047 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
2048 [Steve Henson]
2049
2050 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
2051 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
2052 be obtained from the error queue.
2053 [Bodo Moeller]
2054
2055 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
2056 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
2057 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
2058 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
2059 [Bodo Moeller]
2060
2061 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
2062 [Ulf Möller]
2063
2064 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
2065 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
2066 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
2067 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
2068 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
2069 [Geoff Thorpe]
2070
2071 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
2072 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
2073 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
2074 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
2075 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
2076 [Geoff Thorpe]
2077
2078 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
2079 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
2080 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
2081 may not be NULL.
2082 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
2083
2084 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
2085 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
2086 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
2087 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
2088 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
2089 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
2090 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
2091 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
2092 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
2093 or "the configuration storage API"...
2094
2095 The new configuration file reading functions are:
2096
2097 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
2098 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
2099
2100 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
2101
2102 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
2103
2104 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
2105 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
2106 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
2107 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
2108 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
2109 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
2110 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
2111
2112 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
2113 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
2114 [Richard Levitte]
2115
2116 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
2117 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
2118 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
2119 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
2120 [Bodo Moeller]
2121
2122 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
2123 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
2124 them in a portable way.
2125 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
2126
2127 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
2128
2129 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
2130
2131 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
2132 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
2133
2134 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
2135 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
2136 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
2137 <attili@amaxo.com>]
2138
2139 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
2140 was larger than the MD block size.
2141 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
2142
2143 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
2144 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
2145 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
2146 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
2147 components.
2148 [Steve Henson]
2149
2150 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
2151 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
2152 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
2153
2154 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
2155 discouraged.
2156 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
2157
2158 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
2159 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
2160 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
2161 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
2162 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
2163 Additional arguments are always ignored.
2164
2165 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
2166 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
2167
2168 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
2169 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
2170 [Bodo Moeller]
2171
2172 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
2173 [Bodo Moeller]
2174
2175 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
2176 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
2177 its own key.
2178 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
2179 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
2180 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
2181 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
2182 [Bodo Moeller]
2183
2184 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
2185 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
2186 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
2187 does not suppress any output.
2188 [Richard Levitte]
2189
2190 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
2191 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
2192 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
2193 with all the associated security issues.
2194
2195 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
2196 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
2197 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
2198 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
2199 use the value in the default purpose.
2200 [Steve Henson]
2201
2202 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
2203 and fix a memory leak.
2204 [Steve Henson]
2205
2206 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
2207 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
2208 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
2209 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
2210 [Bodo Moeller]
2211
2212 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
2213 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
2214 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
2215 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
2216 [Bodo Moeller]
2217
2218 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
2219 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
2220 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
2221 [Bodo Moeller]
2222
2223 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
2224 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
2225 [Bodo Moeller]
2226
2227 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
2228 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
2229 which was free.
2230 [Steve Henson]
2231
2232 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
2233 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
2234 [Bodo Moeller]
2235
2236 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
2237 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
2238 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
2239 [Bodo Moeller]
2240
2241 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
2242 number generation fails.
2243 [Bodo Moeller]
2244
2245 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
2246 [Bodo Moeller]
2247
2248 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
2249 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
2250
2251 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
2252 [Ulf Möller]
2253
2254 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
2255 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
2256
2257 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
2258 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
2259
2260 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
2261
2262 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
2263 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
2264 [Steve Henson]
2265
2266 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
2267 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
2268
2269 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
2270 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
2271 [Ulf Möller]
2272
2273 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
2274 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
2275 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
2276 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
2277 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
2278 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
2279
2280 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
2281 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
2282 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
2283 for example.
2284 [Steve Henson]
2285
2286 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
2287 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
2288 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
2289 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
2290 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
2291 counter, some don't.)
2292 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
2293 counters or duplicate objects.
2294 [Steve Henson]
2295
2296 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
2297 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
2298 [Steve Henson]
2299
2300 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
2301 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
2302 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
2303
2304 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
2305 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
2306 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
2307 or -rand.
2308 [Ulf Möller]
2309
2310 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
2311 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
2312 [Steve Henson]
2313
2314 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
2315 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
2316 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
2317 cipher list.
2318 [Steve Henson]
2319
2320 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
2321 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
2322 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
2323 [Steve Henson]
2324
2325 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
2326 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
2327 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
2328 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
2329 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
2330 should work without changes.
2331 [Richard Levitte]
2332
2333 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
2334 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
2335 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
2336 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
2337 must be defined. E.g.,
2338 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
2339 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
2340 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
2341 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
2342
2343 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
2344 record layer.
2345 [Bodo Moeller]
2346
2347 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
2348 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
2349 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
2350 [Steve Henson]
2351
2352 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
2353 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
2354 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
2355 request header lines. Some software needs this.
2356 [Steve Henson]
2357
2358 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
2359 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
2360 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
2361 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
2362 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
2363 is prompted for as usual.
2364 [Steve Henson]
2365
2366 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
2367 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
2368 autodetect the card and use it if present.
2369 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
2370
2371 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
2372 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
2373 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
2374 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
2375 [Steve Henson]
2376
2377 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
2378 [Andy Polyakov]
2379
2380 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
2381 of seed file.
2382 [Steve Henson]
2383
2384 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
2385 [Bodo Moeller]
2386
2387 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
2388 [Steve Henson]
2389
2390 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
2391 bits.
2392 [Ulf Möller]
2393
2394 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
2395 [Ulf Möller]
2396
2397 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
2398 [Andy Polyakov]
2399
2400 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
2401 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
2402 [Ulf Möller]
2403
2404 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
2405 options to produce them.
2406 [Steve Henson]
2407
2408 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
2409 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
2410 [Ulf Möller]
2411
2412 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
2413 for p == 0.
2414 [Ulf Möller]
2415
2416 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
2417 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
2418 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
2419 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
2420 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
2421 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
2422 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
2423 [Steve Henson]
2424
2425 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
2426 [Steve Henson]
2427
2428 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
2429 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
2430 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
2431 [Bodo Moeller]
2432
2433 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
2434 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
2435
2436 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
2437 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
2438 [Ulf Möller]
2439
2440 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
2441 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
2442 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
2443 has already seen).
2444 [Bodo Moeller]
2445
2446 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
2447 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
2448
2449 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
2450 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
2451 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
2452 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
2453 generation becomes much faster.
2454
2455 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
2456 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
2457 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
2458 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
2459 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
2460 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
2461 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
2462 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
2463 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
2464 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
2465 [Bodo Moeller]
2466
2467 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
2468 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
2469 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
2470 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
2471 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
2472 trial division stage.
2473 [Bodo Moeller]
2474
2475 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
2476 as ASN1_TIME.
2477 [Steve Henson]
2478
2479 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
2480 [Steve Henson]
2481
2482 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
2483 [Ulf Möller]
2484
2485 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
2486 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
2487 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
2488 the comments.
2489 [Ulf Möller]
2490
2491 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
2492 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
2493 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
2494 [Bodo Moeller]
2495
2496 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
2497 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
2498 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
2499 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
2500
2501 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
2502 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
2503 [Steve Henson]
2504
2505 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
2506 [Ulf Möller]
2507
2508 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
2509 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
2510 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
2511 Rabin-Miller iterations.
2512 [Ulf Möller]
2513
2514 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
2515 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
2516 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
2517 [Ulf Möller]
2518
2519 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
2520 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
2521 (instead of parameters) in future.
2522 [Steve Henson]
2523
2524 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
2525 when a new cipher list is set.
2526 [Steve Henson]
2527
2528 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
2529 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
2530 wrong.
2531
2532 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
2533 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
2534 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
2535
2536 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
2537 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
2538 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
2539 an error is flagged.
2540
2541 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
2542 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
2543 the readability was also increased :-)
2544 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
2545
2546 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
2547 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
2548 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
2549 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
2550 as the root CA.
2551 [Steve Henson]
2552
2553 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
2554 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
2555 [Steve Henson]
2556
2557 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
2558 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
2559 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
2560 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
2561 instead.
2562
2563 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
2564 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
2565 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
2566 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
2567 because they handle more complex structures.)
2568 [Steve Henson]
2569
2570 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
2571 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
2572 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
2573 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
2574
2575 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
2576 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
2577 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
2578 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
2579 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
2580 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
2581 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
2582 [Ulf Möller]
2583
2584 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
2585 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
2586 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
2587 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
2588 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
2589 [Bodo Moeller]
2590
2591 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
2592 [Bodo Moeller]
2593
2594 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
2595 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
2596 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
2597 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
2598 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
2599 to use this.
2600
2601 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
2602 code.
2603 [Steve Henson]
2604
2605 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
2606 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
2607 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
2608 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
2609 [Steve Henson]
2610
2611 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
2612 [Ulf Möller]
2613
2614 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
2615 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
2616 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
2617 international characters are used.
2618
2619 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
2620 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
2621 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
2622 in ASN1 order.
2623 [Steve Henson]
2624
2625 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
2626 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
2627 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
2628 request.
2629
2630 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
2631 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
2632 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
2633 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
2634 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
2635 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
2636
2637 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
2638 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
2639 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
2640 be handled by the string table functions.
2641
2642 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
2643 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
2644 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
2645 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
2646 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
2647 types at all.
2648 [Steve Henson]
2649
2650 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
2651 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
2652 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
2653 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
2654 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
2655
2656 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
2657 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
2658 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
2659 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
2660 [Bodo Moeller]
2661
2662 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
2663 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
2664 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
2665 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
2666 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
2667 SHA1.
2668 [Andy Polyakov]
2669
2670 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
2671 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
2672 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
2673 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
2674 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
2675 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
2676 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
2677 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
2678
2679 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
2680 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
2681 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
2682 [Steve Henson]
2683
2684 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
2685 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
2686 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
2687 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
2688 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
2689 support to pkcs8 application.
2690 [Steve Henson]
2691
2692 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
2693 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
2694 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
2695 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
2696 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
2697 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
2698 [Bodo Moeller]
2699
2700 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
2701 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
2702 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
2703 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
2704 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
2705 consistency.
2706 [Bodo Moeller]
2707
2708 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
2709 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
2710 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
2711 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
2712 example.
2713 [Steve Henson]
2714
2715 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
2716 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
2717 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
2718 and any application specific purposes.
2719
2720 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
2721 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
2722 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
2723 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
2724 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
2725 if the certificate is self signed.
2726 [Steve Henson]
2727
2728 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
2729 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
2730 [Steve Henson]
2731
2732 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
2733 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
2734 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
2735 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
2736 [Steve Henson]
2737
2738 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
2739 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
2740 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
2741 Update documentation.
2742 [Steve Henson]
2743
2744 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
2745 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
2746 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
2747 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
2748 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
2749 [Steve Henson]
2750
2751 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
2752 for details.
2753 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
2754
2755 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
2756 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
2757 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
2758 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
2759 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
2760 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
2761 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
2762 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
2763 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
2764 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
2765
2766 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
2767
2768 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
2769 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
2770 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
2771 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
2772 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
2773
2774 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
2775 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
2776 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
2777 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
2778 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
2779 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
2780 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
2781 request additional information:
2782 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
2783 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
2784
2785 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
2786 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
2787 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
2788 options.
2789
2790 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
2791 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
2792
2793 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
2794 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
2795 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
2796
2797 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
2798 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2799
2800 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
2801 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
2802 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
2803 algorithm.
2804 [Steve Henson]
2805
2806 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
2807 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
2808 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
2809
2810 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
2811 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
2812 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
2813 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
2814 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
2815 included in OpenSSL.
2816 [Steve Henson]
2817
2818 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
2819 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
2820 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
2821 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
2822 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
2823 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
2824 [Bodo Moeller]
2825
2826 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
2827 PKCS12 structure.
2828 [Steve Henson]
2829
2830 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
2831 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
2832 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
2833 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
2834 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
2835 structure.
2836 [Steve Henson]
2837
2838 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
2839 need initialising.
2840 [Steve Henson]
2841
2842 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
2843 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
2844 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
2845 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
2846 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
2847 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
2848 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
2849 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
2850 be maintained manually.
2851
2852 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
2853 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
2854 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
2855 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
2856 work because people forget to call this function]
2857 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
2858 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
2859 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
2860 [Steve Henson]
2861
2862 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
2863 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
2864 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
2865 should be discouraged from doing it.
2866 [Ben Laurie]
2867
2868 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
2869 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
2870 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
2871 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
2872 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
2873 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
2874 [Steve Henson]
2875
2876 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
2877 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
2878 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
2879
2880 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
2881 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
2882 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
2883
2884 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
2885 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
2886 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
2887 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
2888 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
2889 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
2890
2891 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
2892 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
2893 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
2894
2895 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
2896 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
2897 and vice versa.
2898
2899 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
2900 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
2901 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
2902 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
2903 [Steve Henson]
2904
2905 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
2906 [Steve Henson]
2907
2908 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
2909 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
2910 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
2911 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
2912 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
2913 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
2914 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
2915 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
2916 keys so we should be OK.
2917
2918 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
2919 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
2920 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
2921 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
2922 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
2923 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
2924 stay in the name of compatibility.
2925
2926 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
2927 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
2928 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
2929
2930 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
2931 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
2932 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
2933 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
2934 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
2935 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
2936 supplied key).
2937 [Steve Henson]
2938
2939 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
2940 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
2941 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
2942 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
2943 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
2944 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
2945 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
2946 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
2947 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
2948 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
2949 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
2950 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
2951 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
2952 [Steve Henson]
2953
2954 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
2955 [Steve Henson]
2956
2957 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
2958 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
2959 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
2960 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
2961 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
2962 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
2963 single self signed certificate. This means that:
2964 openssl verify ss.pem
2965 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
2966 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
2967 is OK.
2968 [Steve Henson]
2969
2970 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
2971 (and add it to external session representation).
2972 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
2973 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
2974 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
2975 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
2976 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
2977 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
2978 security holes.
2979 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
2980
2981 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
2982 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
2983 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
2984 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
2985
2986 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
2987 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
2988 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
2989 [Steve Henson]
2990
2991 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
2992 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
2993 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
2994 code.
2995 [Steve Henson]
2996
2997 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
2998 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
2999 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
3000
3001 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
3002 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
3003 certificate auxiliary information.
3004 [Steve Henson]
3005
3006 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
3007 the 'enc' command.
3008 [Steve Henson]
3009
3010 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
3011 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
3012 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
3013 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
3014 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
3015 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
3016 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
3017 [Richard Levitte]
3018
3019 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
3020 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
3021 [Steve Henson]
3022
3023 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
3024 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
3025 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
3026 manpages and fix a few bugs.
3027 [Steve Henson]
3028
3029 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
3030 [Steve Henson]
3031
3032 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
3033 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
3034 [Steve Henson]
3035
3036 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
3037 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
3038 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
3039 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
3040 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
3041 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
3042 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
3043 using the new 'x509' options.
3044
3045 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
3046 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
3047 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
3048 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
3049 for all purposes.
3050 [Steve Henson]
3051
3052 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
3053 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
3054 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
3055 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
3056 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
3057 [Mark Cox]
3058
3059 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
3060 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
3061 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
3062 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
3063 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
3064 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
3065 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
3066 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
3067 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
3068 the key length and effective key length are equal.
3069 [Steve Henson]
3070
3071 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
3072 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
3073 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
3074 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
3075 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
3076 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
3077 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
3078 [Steve Henson]
3079
3080 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
3081 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
3082 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
3083 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
3084 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
3085 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
3086 openssl.cnf for more info.
3087 [Steve Henson]
3088
3089 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
3090 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
3091 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
3092 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
3093 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
3094 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
3095 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
3096 md should be large enough anyway.
3097 [Bodo Moeller]
3098
3099 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
3100 for handling the random seed file.
3101
3102 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
3103 ca,
3104 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
3105 s_client,
3106 s_server,
3107 x509 (when signing).
3108 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
3109 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
3110 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
3111
3112 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
3113 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
3114 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
3115 that support '-rand'.
3116 [Bodo Moeller]
3117
3118 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
3119 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
3120 [Bodo Moeller]
3121
3122 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
3123 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
3124 [Bill Perry]
3125
3126 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
3127 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
3128 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
3129 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
3130 is suitable.
3131 [Steve Henson]
3132
3133 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
3134 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
3135 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
3136 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
3137 [Steve Henson]
3138
3139 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
3140 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
3141 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
3142 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
3143 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
3144 print out all the purposes.
3145 [Steve Henson]
3146
3147 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
3148 functions.
3149 [Steve Henson]
3150
3151 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
3152 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
3153 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
3154 single function call.
3155 [Steve Henson]
3156
3157 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
3158 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
3159 [Andy Polyakov]
3160
3161 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
3162 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
3163 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
3164 [Steve Henson]
3165
3166 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
3167 when producing the local key id.
3168 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3169
3170 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
3171 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
3172 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
3173 "server.pem".
3174 [Steve Henson]
3175
3176 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
3177 a public key to be input or output. For example:
3178 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
3179 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
3180 [Steve Henson]
3181
3182 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
3183 in the message. This was handled by allowing
3184 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
3185 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
3186
3187 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
3188 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
3189 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
3190 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3191
3192 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
3193 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
3194 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
3195 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
3196 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
3197 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
3198 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
3199 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
3200 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
3201 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
3202 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
3203 trivial: move one line.
3204 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
3205
3206 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
3207 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
3208 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
3209 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
3210 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
3211 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
3212 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
3213 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
3214 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
3215 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
3216 with an event loop for example.
3217 [Steve Henson]
3218
3219 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
3220 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
3221 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
3222 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
3223 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
3224 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
3225 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
3226 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
3227 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
3228 [Steve Henson]
3229
3230 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
3231 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
3232 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
3233 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
3234 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
3235 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
3236 [Steve Henson]
3237
3238 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
3239 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
3240 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
3241 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
3242
3243 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
3244 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
3245 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
3246 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
3247 key generation.
3248 [Steve Henson]
3249
3250 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
3251 (still largely untested)
3252 [Bodo Moeller]
3253
3254 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
3255 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
3256 [Steve Henson]
3257
3258 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
3259 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
3260 [Steve Henson]
3261
3262 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
3263 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
3264 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
3265 [Bodo Moeller]
3266
3267 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
3268 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
3269 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
3270 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
3271 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
3272 [Steve Henson]
3273
3274 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
3275 [Andy Polyakov]
3276
3277 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
3278 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
3279 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
3280 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
3281 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
3282 in ca.
3283 [Steve Henson]
3284
3285 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
3286 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
3287 1.OU="Unit name 1"
3288 2.OU="Unit name 2"
3289 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
3290 [Steve Henson]
3291
3292 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
3293 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
3294 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
3295 are otherwise ignored at present.
3296 [Steve Henson]
3297
3298 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
3299 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
3300 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
3301 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
3302 copied until the next read.
3303 [Steve Henson]
3304
3305 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
3306 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
3307 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
3308 [Steve Henson]
3309
3310 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
3311 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
3312 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
3313 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
3314 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
3315 associated functions.
3316 [Steve Henson]
3317
3318 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
3319 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
3320 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
3321 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
3322 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
3323 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
3324 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
3325 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
3326 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
3327 memory BIOs.
3328 [Steve Henson]
3329
3330 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
3331 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
3332 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
3333 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
3334 [Bodo Moeller]
3335
3336 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
3337 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
3338 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
3339 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
3340 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
3341 functionality.
3342 [Steve Henson]
3343
3344 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
3345 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
3346 under Win32.
3347 [Steve Henson]
3348
3349 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
3350 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
3351 extensions to be obtained and added.
3352 [Steve Henson]
3353
3354 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
3355 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
3356 [Bodo Moeller]
3357
3358 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
3359
3360 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
3361 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3362
3363 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
3364 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
3365
3366 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
3367 program.
3368 [Steve Henson]
3369
3370 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
3371 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
3372 DH parameters contain its length).
3373
3374 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
3375 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
3376 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
3377 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
3378 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
3379 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
3380 utter importance to use
3381 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
3382 or
3383 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
3384 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
3385 attacks may become possible!
3386 [Bodo Moeller]
3387
3388 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
3389 [Bodo Moeller]
3390
3391 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
3392 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
3393 [Steve Henson]
3394
3395 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
3396 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
3397 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
3398 or long name.
3399 [Steve Henson]
3400
3401 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
3402 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
3403 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
3404 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
3405 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
3406 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
3407 private key operations.
3408 [Steve Henson]
3409
3410 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
3411 [Andy Polyakov]
3412
3413 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
3414 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
3415 to
3416 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
3417 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
3418 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
3419 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
3420 the password callback is called.
3421 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
3422
3423 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
3424
3425 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
3426 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
3427 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
3428 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
3429 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
3430 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
3431 this will work.
3432
3433 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
3434 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
3435 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
3436 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
3437 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
3438 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
3439 [Bodo Moeller]
3440
3441 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
3442 [Andy Polyakov]
3443
3444 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
3445 delete an unused file.
3446 [Ulf Möller]
3447
3448 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
3449 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
3450 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
3451 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
3452 [Steve Henson]
3453
3454 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
3455 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
3456 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
3457 of an error.
3458 [Bodo Moeller]
3459
3460 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
3461 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
3462 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
3463
3464 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
3465 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
3466 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
3467 comparison" warnings.
3468 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
3469 [Steve Henson]
3470
3471 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
3472 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
3473 derived keys are printed to stderr.
3474 [Steve Henson]
3475
3476 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
3477 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
3478
3479 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
3480 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
3481
3482 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
3483 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
3484 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
3485
3486 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
3487 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
3488 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
3489 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
3490 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
3491 this bug.
3492 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
3493
3494 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
3495 The interface is as follows:
3496 Applications can use
3497 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
3498 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
3499 "off" is now the default.
3500 The library internally uses
3501 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
3502 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
3503 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
3504
3505 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
3506 even the default) are now avoided.
3507
3508 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
3509 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
3510 than just having a counter.
3511
3512 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
3513
3514 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
3515 extensions.
3516 [Bodo Moeller]
3517
3518 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
3519 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
3520 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
3521 Initial "mode" flags are:
3522
3523 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
3524 a single record has been written.
3525 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
3526 retries use the same buffer location.
3527 (But all of the contents must be
3528 copied!)
3529 [Bodo Moeller]
3530
3531 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
3532 worked.
3533
3534 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
3535 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
3536
3537 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
3538 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
3539 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
3540 [Steve Henson]
3541
3542 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
3543 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
3544 test programs.
3545 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
3546
3547 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
3548 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
3549 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
3550 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
3551 point to the end.
3552 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
3553 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
3554
3555 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
3556 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
3557 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
3558 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
3559 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
3560 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
3561 [Steve Henson]
3562
3563 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
3564 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
3565 necessary function names.
3566 [Steve Henson]
3567
3568 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
3569 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
3570 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
3571 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
3572 [Bodo Moeller]
3573
3574 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
3575 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
3576 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
3577 [Steve Henson]
3578
3579 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
3580 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
3581 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
3582 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
3583 such programs?)
3584 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
3585 need locks.
3586 [Bodo Moeller]
3587
3588 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
3589 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
3590 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
3591 [Bodo Moeller]
3592
3593 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
3594 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
3595 appropriate.
3596 [Bodo Moeller]
3597
3598 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
3599 for the encoded length.
3600 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
3601
3602 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
3603 [Steve Henson]
3604
3605 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
3606 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
3607 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
3608 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
3609 [Steve Henson]
3610
3611 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
3612 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
3613 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3614
3615 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
3616 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
3617 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
3618 unusual formatting.
3619 [Steve Henson]
3620
3621 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
3622 to use the new extension code.
3623 [Steve Henson]
3624
3625 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
3626 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
3627 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
3628 constant.
3629 [Steve Henson]
3630
3631 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
3632 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
3633 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
3634 [Bodo Moeller]
3635
3636 #if 0
3637 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
3638 [Ben Laurie]
3639 #else
3640 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
3641 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
3642 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
3643 #endif
3644
3645 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
3646 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
3647 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
3648 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
3649 [Ben Laurie]
3650
3651 *) DES library cleanups.
3652 [Ulf Möller]
3653
3654 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
3655 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
3656 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
3657 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
3658 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
3659 of v2.0.
3660 [Steve Henson]
3661
3662 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
3663 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
3664 [Bodo Moeller]
3665
3666 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
3667 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
3668 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
3669 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
3670 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
3671 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
3672 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
3673 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
3674 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
3675 [Steve Henson]
3676
3677 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
3678 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
3679 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
3680 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
3681 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
3682 value doesn't matter.
3683 [Steve Henson]
3684
3685 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
3686 support mutable.
3687 [Ben Laurie]
3688
3689 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
3690 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
3691 "linux-sparc" configuration.
3692 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
3693
3694 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
3695 [Ulf Möller]
3696
3697 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
3698 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
3699 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
3700
3701 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
3702 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
3703
3704 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
3705 [Ben Laurie]
3706
3707 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
3708 [Ben Laurie]
3709
3710 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
3711 [Ben Laurie]
3712
3713 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
3714 [Bodo Moeller]
3715
3716
3717 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
3718
3719 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
3720
3721 *) Updated some demos.
3722 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
3723
3724 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
3725 [Wu Zhigang]
3726
3727 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
3728 [Steve Henson]
3729
3730 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
3731 [Steve Henson]
3732
3733 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
3734 instead of using a fixed path.
3735 [Bodo Moeller]
3736
3737 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
3738 [Andy Polyakov]
3739
3740 *) Improvements for VMS support.
3741 [Richard Levitte]
3742
3743
3744 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
3745
3746 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
3747 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
3748 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3749
3750 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
3751 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
3752 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
3753 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
3754 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
3755 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
3756 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
3757 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
3758 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
3759 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
3760 [Steve Henson]
3761
3762 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
3763 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
3764 [Steve Henson]
3765
3766 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
3767 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
3768 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
3769 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
3770 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
3771
3772 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
3773 [Bodo Moeller]
3774
3775 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
3776 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
3777 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
3778 [Steve Henson]
3779
3780 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
3781 [Ben Laurie]
3782
3783 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
3784 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
3785 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
3786 key elements as negative integers.
3787 [Steve Henson]
3788
3789 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
3790 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3791
3792 *) VMS support.
3793 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
3794
3795 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
3796 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
3797 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
3798 [Steve Henson]
3799
3800 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
3801 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
3802 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
3803 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
3804 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
3805 [Bodo Moeller]
3806
3807 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
3808 [Ulf Möller]
3809
3810 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
3811 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
3812 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
3813 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3814
3815 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
3816 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
3817 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
3818
3819 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
3820 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
3821 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
3822 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
3823 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
3824 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
3825 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
3826 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
3827 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
3828
3829 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
3830 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
3831 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
3832 does not influence s as it used to.
3833
3834 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
3835 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
3836 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
3837 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
3838 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
3839 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
3840 [Bodo Moeller]
3841
3842 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
3843 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
3844 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
3845 key type.
3846 [Steve Henson]
3847
3848 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
3849 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
3850 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
3851 and 'x509').
3852 [Steve Henson]
3853
3854 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
3855 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
3856 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
3857 extension option.
3858 [Steve Henson]
3859
3860 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
3861 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
3862 [Ben Laurie]
3863
3864 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
3865 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
3866
3867 *) Support Mingw32.
3868 [Ulf Möller]
3869
3870 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
3871 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3872
3873 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
3874 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3875
3876 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
3877 [Ulf Möller]
3878
3879 *) Update HPUX configuration.
3880 [Anonymous]
3881
3882 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
3883 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3884
3885 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
3886 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
3887 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
3888 DER-encoded.)
3889 [Bodo Moeller]
3890
3891 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
3892 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
3893 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
3894 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
3895 now it really counts the depth.
3896 [Bodo Moeller]
3897
3898 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
3899 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
3900 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
3901 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
3902 didn't match the private key).
3903
3904 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
3905 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
3906 connection using the SSL_CTX).
3907 [Bodo Moeller]
3908
3909 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
3910 [Ulf Möller]
3911
3912 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
3913 David Harris.
3914 [Bodo Moeller]
3915
3916 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
3917 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
3918 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
3919 [Bodo Moeller]
3920
3921 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
3922 [Bodo Moeller]
3923
3924 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
3925 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
3926 such as /usr/local/bin.
3927 [Bodo Moeller]
3928
3929 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
3930 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
3931
3932 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
3933 [Ulf Möller]
3934
3935 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
3936 extension adding in x509 utility.
3937 [Steve Henson]
3938
3939 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
3940 [Ulf Möller]
3941
3942 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
3943 prototypes.
3944 [Steve Henson]
3945
3946 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
3947 [Ulf Möller]
3948
3949 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
3950 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
3951 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
3952 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
3953 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
3954 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
3955 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
3956 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
3957 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
3958 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
3959 [Steve Henson]
3960
3961 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
3962 [Bodo Moeller]
3963
3964 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
3965 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
3966 [Bodo Moeller]
3967
3968 *) Fix some race conditions.
3969 [Bodo Moeller]
3970
3971 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
3972 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
3973 [Steve Henson]
3974
3975 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
3976 [Ulf Möller]
3977
3978 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
3979 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
3980 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
3981 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
3982
3983 *) Fix lots of warnings.
3984 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3985
3986 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
3987 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
3988 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3989
3990 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
3991 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3992
3993 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
3994 [Ulf Möller]
3995
3996 *) Fix typos in error codes.
3997 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
3998
3999 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
4000 [Ulf Möller]
4001
4002 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
4003 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4004
4005 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
4006 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
4007 [Steve Henson]
4008
4009 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
4010 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
4011 [Ben Laurie]
4012
4013 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
4014 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
4015 [Steve Henson]
4016
4017 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
4018 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
4019 [Steve Henson]
4020
4021 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
4022 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
4023 [Steve Henson]
4024
4025 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
4026 support typesafe stack.
4027 [Steve Henson]
4028
4029 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
4030 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
4031
4032 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
4033 old X509V3 handling code.
4034 [Steve Henson]
4035
4036 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
4037 [Ulf Möller]
4038
4039 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
4040 [Bodo Moeller]
4041
4042 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
4043 [Ben Laurie]
4044
4045 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
4046 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
4047
4048 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
4049 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
4050 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
4051 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
4052 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
4053 [Ben Laurie]
4054
4055 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
4056 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
4057 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
4058 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
4059 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
4060
4061 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
4062 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
4063 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
4064 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4065
4066 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
4067 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
4068 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
4069 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4070
4071 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
4072 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
4073 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
4074 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
4075 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
4076 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
4077 [Bodo Moeller]
4078
4079 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
4080 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
4081 [Bodo Moeller]
4082
4083 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
4084 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
4085 [Ulf Möller]
4086
4087 *) Tweaks to Configure
4088 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
4089
4090 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
4091 yet...
4092 [Steve Henson]
4093
4094 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
4095 [Ulf Möller]
4096
4097 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
4098 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
4099 [Ulf Möller]
4100
4101 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
4102 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
4103 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
4104 [Bodo Moeller]
4105
4106 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
4107 [Bodo Moeller]
4108
4109 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
4110 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
4111 [Steve Henson]
4112
4113 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
4114 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
4115 to library startup routines.
4116 [Steve Henson]
4117
4118 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
4119 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
4120 codes along the way.
4121 [Steve Henson]
4122
4123 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
4124 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
4125 objects to objects.h
4126 [Steve Henson]
4127
4128 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
4129 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
4130 [Steve Henson]
4131
4132 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
4133 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
4134
4135 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
4136 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
4137 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
4138
4139 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
4140 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
4141 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4142
4143 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
4144 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
4145 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
4146
4147
4148 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
4149
4150 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
4151 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
4152 [Ben Laurie]
4153
4154 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
4155 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
4156 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
4157 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
4158 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
4159
4160 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
4161 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
4162 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
4163 document.
4164 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4165
4166 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
4167 Malloc, Free.
4168 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
4169
4170 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
4171 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4172
4173 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
4174 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
4175 if someone would make that last step automatic.
4176 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
4177
4178 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
4179 [Ben Laurie]
4180
4181 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
4182 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
4183 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
4184 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
4185 [Steve Henson]
4186
4187 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
4188 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
4189 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
4190 [Steve Henson]
4191
4192 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
4193 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
4194 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
4195 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
4196 installed as `perl').
4197 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
4198
4199 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
4200 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
4201
4202 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
4203 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
4204 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
4205 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
4206 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
4207 [Steve Henson]
4208
4209 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
4210 [Ben Laurie]
4211
4212 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
4213 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
4214 is horrible: I feel ill....
4215 [Steve Henson]
4216
4217 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
4218 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
4219 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
4220 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
4221 [Steve Henson]
4222
4223 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
4224 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4225
4226 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
4227 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
4228 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
4229 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4230
4231 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
4232 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
4233 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
4234 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
4235 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
4236 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
4237 openssl_bio.xs.
4238 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4239
4240 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
4241 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
4242
4243 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
4244 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
4245
4246 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
4247 [Ben Laurie]
4248
4249 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
4250 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
4251 in CRLs.
4252 [Steve Henson]
4253
4254 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
4255 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
4256 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
4257 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
4258 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
4259 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
4260 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
4261 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
4262 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
4263 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
4264 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4265
4266 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
4267 [Ben Laurie]
4268
4269 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
4270 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
4271 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
4272 for linking it into DSOs.
4273 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4274
4275 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
4276 Fixed.
4277 [Ben Laurie]
4278
4279 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
4280 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
4281 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
4282 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
4283 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
4284 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4285
4286 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
4287 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
4288 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
4289 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
4290 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
4291 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
4292 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4293
4294 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
4295 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
4296 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
4297 encryption.
4298 [Ben Laurie]
4299
4300 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
4301 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
4302 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
4303 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
4304 [Steve Henson]
4305
4306 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
4307 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
4308 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
4309 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
4310 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
4311 field as blank.
4312 [Steve Henson]
4313
4314 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
4315 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
4316 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
4317 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
4318 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4319
4320 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
4321 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
4322 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
4323
4324 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
4325 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
4326
4327 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
4328 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
4329 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
4330 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
4331 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
4332 [Steve Henson]
4333
4334 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
4335 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
4336 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
4337 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
4338 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
4339 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
4340 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
4341 [Ben Laurie]
4342
4343 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
4344 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
4345 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
4346 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
4347 [Ben Laurie]
4348
4349 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
4350 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
4351
4352 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
4353 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
4354 [Steve Henson]
4355
4356 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
4357 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
4358 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
4359 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
4360 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
4361 (e.g. s_server).
4362 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
4363 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
4364 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
4365 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
4366 no way to reconfigure them.
4367 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
4368 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
4369 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
4370 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
4371 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
4372 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4373
4374 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
4375 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
4376 recognized by the users.
4377 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4378
4379 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
4380 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
4381 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
4382 already masked variable.
4383 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4384
4385 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
4386 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4387
4388 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
4389 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
4390 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
4391 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4392
4393 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
4394 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
4395 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4396
4397 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
4398 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
4399 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
4400 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
4401 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
4402 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
4403 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
4404 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
4405 now, too.
4406 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4407
4408 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
4409 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
4410 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4411
4412 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
4413 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
4414 config file.
4415 [Steve Henson]
4416
4417 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
4418 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
4419
4420 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
4421 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
4422 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
4423 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
4424 [Ben Laurie]
4425
4426 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
4427 [Steve Henson]
4428
4429 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
4430 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4431
4432 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
4433 [Ben Laurie]
4434
4435 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
4436 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
4437 [Steve Henson]
4438
4439 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
4440 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
4441 [Steve Henson]
4442
4443 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
4444 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
4445 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
4446 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
4447 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
4448 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
4449 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
4450 Ben Laurie]
4451
4452 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
4453 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
4454
4455 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
4456 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
4457 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
4458 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
4459 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
4460
4461 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
4462 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
4463 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
4464 [Steve Henson]
4465
4466 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
4467 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
4468 an example.
4469 [Steve Henson]
4470
4471 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
4472 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
4473 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
4474
4475 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
4476 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
4477 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
4478 build instructions.
4479 [Steve Henson]
4480
4481 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
4482 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
4483 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
4484 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
4485 [Steve Henson]
4486
4487 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
4488 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
4489 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
4490 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
4491 [Ben Laurie]
4492
4493 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
4494 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
4495 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
4496 so it wasn't spotted.
4497 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
4498
4499 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
4500 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
4501 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
4502 vectors if you have them.
4503 [Ben Laurie]
4504
4505 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
4506 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
4507 [Ben Laurie]
4508
4509 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
4510 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
4511 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
4512 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
4513 If you do a:
4514 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
4515 it will update them.
4516 [Steve Henson]
4517
4518 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
4519 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
4520 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
4521 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
4522 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
4523 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
4524 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
4525 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4526
4527 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
4528 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
4529 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
4530 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
4531 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
4532 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
4533 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
4534 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
4535 the crypto/md/ stuff).
4536 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4537
4538 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
4539 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
4540 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
4541 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
4542 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
4543 [Steve Henson]
4544
4545 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
4546 INTEGER code.
4547 [Steve Henson]
4548
4549 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
4550 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
4551
4552 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
4553 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
4554
4555 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
4556 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
4557 [Ben Laurie]
4558
4559 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
4560 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
4561
4562 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
4563 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
4564
4565 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
4566 [Steve Henson]
4567
4568 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
4569 few typos.
4570 [Steve Henson]
4571
4572 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
4573 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
4574 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
4575 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
4576
4577 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
4578 [Steve Henson]
4579
4580 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
4581 [Steve Henson]
4582
4583 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
4584 [Steve Henson]
4585
4586 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
4587 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
4588 [Steve Henson]
4589
4590 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
4591 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
4592 CA extensions.
4593 [Steve Henson]
4594
4595 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
4596 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
4597 [Steve Henson]
4598
4599 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
4600 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
4601 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
4602 [Steve Henson]
4603
4604 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
4605 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
4606 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
4607 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
4608 properly to be processed.
4609 [Steve Henson]
4610
4611 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
4612 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
4613 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
4614 [Ben Laurie]
4615
4616 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
4617 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
4618
4619 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
4620 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
4621 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
4622 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
4623 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
4624 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
4625 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
4626 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
4627 or delete all the .err files.
4628 [Steve Henson]
4629
4630 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
4631 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
4632 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
4633 to regenerate it if needed.
4634 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
4635 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
4636
4637 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
4638 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4639
4640 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
4641 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
4642 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
4643 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
4644 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
4645 [Steve Henson]
4646
4647 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
4648 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4649
4650 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
4651 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4652
4653 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
4654 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
4655 error, but didn't set one).
4656 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4657
4658 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
4659 [Ben Laurie]
4660
4661 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
4662 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
4663 [Steve Henson]
4664
4665 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
4666 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
4667
4668 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
4669 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
4670 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
4671 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
4672 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
4673 OID is not part of the table.
4674 [Steve Henson]
4675
4676 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
4677 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
4678 [Ben Laurie]
4679
4680 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
4681 [Ben Laurie]
4682
4683 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
4684 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
4685 was "1234").
4686 [Steve Henson]
4687
4688 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
4689 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
4690
4691 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
4692 NULL pointers.
4693 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4694
4695 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
4696 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
4697
4698 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
4699 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
4700
4701 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
4702 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4703
4704 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
4705 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
4706 [Ben Laurie]
4707
4708 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
4709 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
4710 [Steve Henson]
4711
4712 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
4713 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4714
4715 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
4716 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4717
4718 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
4719 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4720
4721 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
4722 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4723
4724 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
4725 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
4726 unused in the certificate verification process.
4727 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4728
4729 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
4730 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
4731 [Steve Henson]
4732
4733 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
4734 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
4735 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
4736
4737 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
4738 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
4739 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
4740 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
4741 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
4742
4743 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
4744 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
4745 [Steve Henson]
4746
4747 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
4748 [Steve Henson]
4749
4750 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
4751 [Paul Sutton]
4752
4753 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
4754 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
4755
4756 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
4757 [Ben Laurie]
4758
4759 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
4760 [Ben Laurie]
4761
4762 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
4763 [Ben Laurie]
4764
4765 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
4766 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
4767 other error libraries.
4768 [Steve Henson]
4769
4770 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
4771 [Steve Henson]
4772
4773 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
4774 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
4775 be read in.
4776 [Steve Henson]
4777
4778 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
4779 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
4780 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
4781 the new set of documenation files.
4782 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4783
4784 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
4785 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
4786 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
4787 number of arguments.
4788 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
4789
4790 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
4791 [Ben Laurie]
4792
4793 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
4794 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
4795 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4796
4797 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
4798 [Ben Laurie]
4799
4800 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
4801 nextstep
4802 ncr-scde
4803 unixware-2.0
4804 unixware-2.0-pentium
4805 sco5-cc.
4806 [Ben Laurie]
4807
4808 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
4809 before they are needed.
4810 [Ben Laurie]
4811
4812 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
4813 [Ben Laurie]
4814
4815
4816 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
4817
4818 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
4819 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
4820 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4821
4822 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
4823 [Paul Sutton]
4824
4825 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
4826 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
4827 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4828
4829 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
4830 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
4831 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
4832
4833 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
4834 when "ssleay" is still not found.
4835 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
