31 OpenSSL 3.2
32 -----------
33
34 ### Changes between 3.1 and 3.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
35
36 * Enable extra Arm64 optimization on Windows for GHASH, RAND and AES.
37
38 *Evgeny Karpov*
39
40 * Added a function to delete objects from store by URI - OSSL_STORE_delete()
41 and the corresponding provider-storemgmt API function
42 OSSL_FUNC_store_delete().
43
44 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
45
46 * Added OSSL_FUNC_store_open_ex() provider-storemgmt API function to pass
47 a passphrase callback when opening a store.
48
49 *Simo Sorce*
50
51 * Changed the default salt length used by PBES2 KDF's (PBKDF2 and scrypt)
52 from 8 bytes to 16 bytes.
53 The PKCS5 (RFC 8018) standard uses a 64 bit salt length for PBE, and
54 recommends a minimum of 64 bits for PBES2. For FIPS compliance PBKDF2
55 requires a salt length of 128 bits. This affects OpenSSL command line
56 applications such as "genrsa" and "pkcs8" and API's such as
57 PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() that are reliant on the default value.
58 The additional commandline option 'saltlen' has been added to the
59 OpenSSL command line applications for "pkcs8" and "enc" to allow the
60 salt length to be set to a non default value.
61
62 *Shane Lontis*
63
64 * Changed the default value of the `ess_cert_id_alg` configuration
65 option which is used to calculate the TSA's public key certificate
66 identifier. The default algorithm is updated to be sha256 instead
67 of sha1.
68
69 *Małgorzata Olszówka*
70
71 * Added optimization for SM2 algorithm on aarch64. It uses a huge precomputed
72 table for point multiplication of the base point, which increases the size of
73 libcrypto from 4.4 MB to 4.9 MB. A new configure option `no-sm2-precomp` has
74 been added to disable the precomputed table.
75
76 *Xu Yizhou*
77
78 * Added client side support for QUIC
79
80 *Hugo Landau, Matt Caswell, Paul Dale, Tomáš Mráz, Richard Levitte*
81
82 * Added multiple tutorials on the OpenSSL library and in particular
83 on writing various clients (using TLS and QUIC protocols) with libssl.
84
85 *Matt Caswell*
86
87 * Added secp384r1 implementation using Solinas' reduction to improve
88 speed of the NIST P-384 elliptic curve. To enable the implementation
89 the build option `enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128` must be used.
90
91 *Rohan McLure*
92
93 * Improved RFC7468 compliance of the asn1parse command.
94
95 *Matthias St. Pierre*
96
97 * Added SHA256/192 algorithm support.
98
99 *Fergus Dall*
100
101 * Added support for securely getting root CA certificate update in
102 CMP.
103
104 *David von Oheimb*
105
106 * Improved contention on global write locks by using more read locks where
107 appropriate.
108
109 *Matt Caswell*
110
111 * Improved performance of OSSL_PARAM lookups in performance critical
112 provider functions.
113
114 *Paul Dale*
115
116 * Added the SSL_get0_group_name() function to provide access to the
117 name of the group used for the TLS key exchange.
118
119 *Alex Bozarth*
120
121 * Provide a new configure option `no-http` that can be used to disable the
122 HTTP support. Provide new configure options `no-apps` and `no-docs` to
123 disable building the openssl command line application and the documentation.
124
125 *Vladimír Kotal*
126
127 * Provide a new configure option `no-ecx` that can be used to disable the
128 X25519, X448, and EdDSA support.
129
130 *Yi Li*
131
132 * When multiple OSSL_KDF_PARAM_INFO parameters are passed to
133 the EVP_KDF_CTX_set_params() function they are now concatenated not just
134 for the HKDF algorithm but also for SSKDF and X9.63 KDF algorithms.
135
136 *Paul Dale*
137
138 * Added OSSL_FUNC_keymgmt_im/export_types_ex() provider functions that get
139 the provider context as a parameter.
140
141 *Ingo Franzki*
142
143 * TLS round-trip time calculation was added by a Brigham Young University
144 Capstone team partnering with Sandia National Laboratories. A new function
145 in ssl_lib titled SSL_get_handshake_rtt will calculate and retrieve this
146 value.
147
148 *Jairus Christensen*
149
150 * Added the "-quic" option to s_client to enable connectivity to QUIC servers.
151 QUIC requires the use of ALPN, so this must be specified via the "-alpn"
152 option. Use of the "advanced" s_client command command via the "-adv" option
153 is recommended.
154
155 *Matt Caswell*
156
157 * Added an "advanced" command mode to s_client. Use this with the "-adv"
158 option. The old "basic" command mode recognises certain letters that must
159 always appear at the start of a line and cannot be escaped. The advanced
160 command mode enables commands to be entered anywhere and there is an
161 escaping mechanism. After starting s_client with "-adv" type "{help}"
162 to show a list of available commands.
163
164 *Matt Caswell*
165
166 * Add Raw Public Key (RFC7250) support. Authentication is supported
167 by matching keys against either local policy (TLSA records synthesised
168 from the expected keys) or DANE (TLSA records obtained by the
169 application from DNS). TLSA records will also match the same key in
170 the server certificate, should RPK use not happen to be negotiated.
171
172 *Todd Short*
173
174 * Added support for modular exponentiation and CRT offloading for the
175 S390x architecture.
176
177 *Juergen Christ*
178
179 * Added further assembler code for the RISC-V architecture.
180
181 *Christoph Müllner*
182
183 * Added EC_GROUP_to_params() which creates an OSSL_PARAM array
184 from a given EC_GROUP.
185
186 *Oliver Mihatsch*
187
188 * Improved support for non-default library contexts and property queries
189 when parsing PKCS#12 files.
190
191 *Shane Lontis*
192
193 * Implemented support for all five instances of EdDSA from RFC8032:
194 Ed25519, Ed25519ctx, Ed25519ph, Ed448, and Ed448ph.
195 The streaming is not yet supported for the HashEdDSA variants
196 (Ed25519ph and Ed448ph).
197
198 *James Muir*
199
200 * Added SM4 optimization for ARM processors using ASIMD and AES HW
201 instructions.
202
203 *Xu Yizhou*
204
205 * Implemented SM4-XTS support.
206
207 *Xu Yizhou*
208
209 * Added platform-agnostic OSSL_sleep() function.
210
211 *Richard Levitte*
212
213 * Implemented deterministic ECDSA signatures (RFC6979) support.
214
215 *Shane Lontis*
216
217 * Implemented AES-GCM-SIV (RFC8452) support.
218
219 *Todd Short*
220
221 * Added support for pluggable (provider-based) TLS signature algorithms.
222 This enables TLS 1.3 authentication operations with algorithms embedded
223 in providers not included by default in OpenSSL. In combination with
224 the already available pluggable KEM and X.509 support, this enables
225 for example suitable providers to deliver post-quantum or quantum-safe
226 cryptography to OpenSSL users.
227
228 *Michael Baentsch*
229
230 * Added support for pluggable (provider-based) CMS signature algorithms.
231 This enables CMS sign and verify operations with algorithms embedded
232 in providers not included by default in OpenSSL.
233
234 *Michael Baentsch*
235
236 * Added support for Hybrid Public Key Encryption (HPKE) as defined
237 in RFC9180. HPKE is required for TLS Encrypted ClientHello (ECH),
238 Message Layer Security (MLS) and other IETF specifications.
239 HPKE can also be used by other applications that require
240 encrypting "to" an ECDH public key. External APIs are defined in
241 include/openssl/hpke.h and documented in doc/man3/OSSL_HPKE_CTX_new.pod
242
243 *Stephen Farrell*
244
245 * Implemented HPKE DHKEM support in providers used by HPKE (RFC9180)
246 API.
247
248 *Shane Lontis*
249
250 * Add support for certificate compression (RFC8879), including
251 library support for Brotli and Zstandard compression.
252
253 *Todd Short*
254
255 * Add the ability to add custom attributes to PKCS12 files. Add a new API
256 PKCS12_create_ex2, identical to the existing PKCS12_create_ex but allows
257 for a user specified callback and optional argument.
258 Added a new PKCS12_SAFEBAG_set0_attr, which allows for a new attr to be
259 added to the existing STACK_OF attrs.
260
261 *Graham Woodward*
262
263 * Major refactor of the libssl record layer.
264
265 *Matt Caswell*
266
267 * Add a mac salt length option for the pkcs12 command.
268
269 *Xinping Chen*
270
271 * Add more SRTP protection profiles from RFC8723 and RFC8269.
272
273 *Kijin Kim*
274
275 * Extended Kernel TLS (KTLS) to support TLS 1.3 receive offload.
276
277 *Daiki Ueno, John Baldwin and Dmitry Podgorny*
278
279 * Add support for TCP Fast Open (RFC7413) to macOS, Linux, and FreeBSD where
280 supported and enabled.
281
282 *Todd Short*
283
284 * Add ciphersuites based on DHE_PSK (RFC 4279) and ECDHE_PSK (RFC 5489)
285 to the list of ciphersuites providing Perfect Forward Secrecy as
286 required by SECLEVEL >= 3.
287
288 *Dmitry Belyavskiy, Nicola Tuveri*
289
290 * Add new SSL APIs to aid in efficiently implementing TLS/SSL fingerprinting.
291 The SSL_CTRL_GET_IANA_GROUPS control code, exposed as the
292 SSL_get0_iana_groups() function-like macro, retrieves the list of
293 supported groups sent by the peer.
294 The function SSL_client_hello_get_extension_order() populates
295 a caller-supplied array with the list of extension types present in the
296 ClientHello, in order of appearance.
297
298 *Phus Lu*
299
300 * Fixed PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey_nid()
301 to make it possible to use empty passphrase strings.
302
303 *Darshan Sen*
304
305 * The PKCS12_parse() function now supports MAC-less PKCS12 files.
306
307 *Daniel Fiala*
308
309 * Added ASYNC_set_mem_functions() and ASYNC_get_mem_functions() calls to be able
310 to change functions used for allocating the memory of asynchronous call stack.
311
312 *Arran Cudbard-Bell*
313
314 * Added support for signed BIGNUMs in the OSSL_PARAM APIs.
315
316 *Richard Levitte*
317
318 * A failure exit code is returned when using the openssl x509 command to check
319 certificate attributes and the checks fail.
320
321 *Rami Khaldi*
322
323 * The default SSL/TLS security level has been changed from 1 to 2. RSA,
324 DSA and DH keys of 1024 bits and above and less than 2048 bits and ECC keys
325 of 160 bits and above and less than 224 bits were previously accepted by
326 default but are now no longer allowed. By default TLS compression was
327 already disabled in previous OpenSSL versions. At security level 2 it cannot
328 be enabled.
329
330 *Matt Caswell*
331
332 * The SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list family functions now accept ciphers using their
333 IANA standard names.
334
335 *Erik Lax*
336
337 * The PVK key derivation function has been moved from b2i_PVK_bio_ex() into
338 the legacy crypto provider as an EVP_KDF. Applications requiring this KDF
339 will need to load the legacy crypto provider.
340
341 *Paul Dale*
342
343 * CCM8 cipher suites in TLS have been downgraded to security level zero
344 because they use a short authentication tag which lowers their strength.
345
346 *Paul Dale*
347
348 * Subject or issuer names in X.509 objects are now displayed as UTF-8 strings
349 by default.
350
351 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
352
353 * Add X.509 certificate codeSigning purpose and related checks on key usage and
354 extended key usage of the leaf certificate according to the CA/Browser Forum.
355
356 * Lutz Jänicke*
357
358 * The `x509`, `ca`, and `req` apps now produce X.509 v3 certificates.
359 The `-x509v1` option of `req` prefers generation of X.509 v1 certificates.
360 `X509_sign()` and `X509_sign_ctx()` make sure that the certificate has
361 X.509 version 3 if the certificate information includes X.509 extensions.
362
363 *David von Oheimb*
364
365 * Fix and extend certificate handling and the apps `x509`, `verify` etc.
366 such as adding a trace facility for debugging certificate chain building.
367
368 *David von Oheimb*
369
370 * Various fixes and extensions to the CMP+CRMF implementation and the `cmp` app
371 in particular supporting requests for central key generation, generalized
372 polling, and various types of genm/genp exchanges defined in CMP Updates.
373
374 *David von Oheimb*
375
376 * Fixes and extensions to the HTTP client and to the HTTP server in `apps/`
377 like correcting the TLS and proxy support and adding tracing for debugging.
378
379 *David von Oheimb*
380
381 * Extended the CMS API for handling `CMS_SignedData` and `CMS_EnvelopedData`.
382
383 *David von Oheimb*
384
385 * `CMS_add0_cert()` and `CMS_add1_cert()` no longer throw an error if
386 a certificate to be added is already present. `CMS_sign_ex()` and
387 `CMS_sign()` now ignore any duplicate certificates in their `certs` argument
388 and no longer throw an error for them.
389
390 *David von Oheimb*
391
392 * Fixed and extended `util/check-format.pl` for checking adherence to the
393 coding style <https://www.openssl.org/policies/technical/coding-style.html>.
394 The checks are meanwhile more complete and yield fewer false positives.
395
396 *David von Oheimb*
397
398 * Added BIO_s_dgram_pair() and BIO_s_dgram_mem() that provide memory-based
399 BIOs with datagram semantics and support for BIO_sendmmsg() and BIO_recvmmsg()
400 calls. They can be used as the transport BIOs for QUIC.
401
402 *Hugo Landau, Matt Caswell and Tomáš Mráz*
403
404 * Add new BIO_sendmmsg() and BIO_recvmmsg() BIO methods which allow
405 sending and receiving multiple messages in a single call. An implementation
406 is provided for BIO_dgram. For further details, see BIO_sendmmsg(3).
407
408 *Hugo Landau*
409
410 * Support for loading root certificates from the Windows certificate store
411 has been added. The support is in the form of a store which recognises the
412 URI string of `org.openssl.winstore://`. This URI scheme currently takes no
413 arguments. This store is built by default and can be disabled using the new
414 compile-time option `no-winstore`. This store is not currently used by
415 default and must be loaded explicitly using the above store URI. It is
416 expected to be loaded by default in the future.
417
418 *Hugo Landau*
419
420 * Enable KTLS with the TLS 1.3 CCM mode ciphersuites. Note that some linux
421 kernel versions that support KTLS have a known bug in CCM processing. That
422 has been fixed in stable releases starting from 5.4.164, 5.10.84, 5.15.7,
423 and all releases since 5.16. KTLS with CCM ciphersuites should be only used
424 on these releases.
425
426 *Tianjia Zhang*
427
428 * Added `-ktls` option to `s_server` and `s_client` commands to enable the
429 KTLS support.
430
431 *Tianjia Zhang*
432
433 * Zerocopy KTLS sendfile() support on Linux.
434
435 *Maxim Mikityanskiy*
436
437 * The OBJ_ calls are now thread safe using a global lock.
438
439 *Paul Dale*
440
441 * New parameter `-digest` for openssl cms command allowing signing
442 pre-computed digests and new CMS API functions supporting that
443 functionality.
444
445 *Viktor Söderqvist*
446
447 * OPENSSL_malloc() and other allocation functions now raise errors on
448 allocation failures. The callers do not need to explicitly raise errors
449 unless they want to for tracing purposes.
450
451 *David von Oheimb*
452
453 * Added and enabled by default implicit rejection in RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
454 decryption as a protection against Bleichenbacher-like attacks.
455 The RSA decryption API will now return a randomly generated deterministic
456 message instead of an error in case it detects an error when checking
457 padding during PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption. This is a general protection against
458 issues like CVE-2020-25659 and CVE-2020-25657. This protection can be
459 disabled by calling
460 `EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl_str(ctx, "rsa_pkcs1_implicit_rejection". "0")`
461 on the RSA decryption context.
462
463 *Hubert Kario*
464
465 * Added support for Brainpool curves in TLS-1.3.
466
467 *Bernd Edlinger and Matt Caswell*
468
469 * Added OpenBSD specific build targets.
470
471 *David Carlier*
472
473 * Support for Argon2d, Argon2i, Argon2id KDFs has been added along with
474 a basic thread pool implementation for select platforms.
475

478 OpenSSL 3.1
479 -----------
480
481 ### Changes between 3.1.3 and 3.1.4 [xx XXX xxxx]
482
483 * Fix incorrect key and IV resizing issues when calling EVP_EncryptInit_ex2(),
484 EVP_DecryptInit_ex2() or EVP_CipherInit_ex2() with OSSL_PARAM parameters
485 that alter the key or IV length ([CVE-2023-5363]).
486
487 *Paul Dale*
488
489 ### Changes between 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 [19 Sep 2023]
490
491 * Fix POLY1305 MAC implementation corrupting XMM registers on Windows.
492
493 The POLY1305 MAC (message authentication code) implementation in OpenSSL
494 does not save the contents of non-volatile XMM registers on Windows 64
495 platform when calculating the MAC of data larger than 64 bytes. Before
496 returning to the caller all the XMM registers are set to zero rather than
497 restoring their previous content. The vulnerable code is used only on newer
498 x86_64 processors supporting the AVX512-IFMA instructions.
499
500 The consequences of this kind of internal application state corruption can
501 be various - from no consequences, if the calling application does not
502 depend on the contents of non-volatile XMM registers at all, to the worst
503 consequences, where the attacker could get complete control of the
504 application process. However given the contents of the registers are just
505 zeroized so the attacker cannot put arbitrary values inside, the most likely
506 consequence, if any, would be an incorrect result of some application
507 dependent calculations or a crash leading to a denial of service.
508
509 ([CVE-2023-4807])
510
511 *Bernd Edlinger*
512
513 ### Changes between 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 [1 Aug 2023]
514
515 * Fix excessive time spent checking DH q parameter value.
516
517 The function DH_check() performs various checks on DH parameters. After
518 fixing CVE-2023-3446 it was discovered that a large q parameter value can
519 also trigger an overly long computation during some of these checks.
520 A correct q value, if present, cannot be larger than the modulus p
521 parameter, thus it is unnecessary to perform these checks if q is larger
522 than p.
523
524 If DH_check() is called with such q parameter value,
525 DH_CHECK_INVALID_Q_VALUE return flag is set and the computationally
526 intensive checks are skipped.
527
528 ([CVE-2023-3817])
529
530 *Tomáš Mráz*
531
532 * Fix DH_check() excessive time with over sized modulus.
533
534 The function DH_check() performs various checks on DH parameters. One of
535 those checks confirms that the modulus ("p" parameter) is not too large.
536 Trying to use a very large modulus is slow and OpenSSL will not normally use
537 a modulus which is over 10,000 bits in length.
538
539 However the DH_check() function checks numerous aspects of the key or
540 parameters that have been supplied. Some of those checks use the supplied
541 modulus value even if it has already been found to be too large.
542
543 A new limit has been added to DH_check of 32,768 bits. Supplying a
544 key/parameters with a modulus over this size will simply cause DH_check() to
545 fail.
546
547 ([CVE-2023-3446])
548
549 *Matt Caswell*
550
551 * Do not ignore empty associated data entries with AES-SIV.
552
553 The AES-SIV algorithm allows for authentication of multiple associated
554 data entries along with the encryption. To authenticate empty data the
555 application has to call `EVP_EncryptUpdate()` (or `EVP_CipherUpdate()`)
556 with NULL pointer as the output buffer and 0 as the input buffer length.
557 The AES-SIV implementation in OpenSSL just returns success for such call
558 instead of performing the associated data authentication operation.
559 The empty data thus will not be authenticated. ([CVE-2023-2975])
560
561 Thanks to Juerg Wullschleger (Google) for discovering the issue.
562
563 The fix changes the authentication tag value and the ciphertext for
564 applications that use empty associated data entries with AES-SIV.
565 To decrypt data encrypted with previous versions of OpenSSL the application
566 has to skip calls to `EVP_DecryptUpdate()` for empty associated data
567 entries.
568
569 *Tomáš Mráz*
570
571 * When building with the `enable-fips` option and using the resulting
572 FIPS provider, TLS 1.2 will, by default, mandate the use of an extended
573 master secret (FIPS 140-3 IG G.Q) and the Hash and HMAC DRBGs will
574 not operate with truncated digests (FIPS 140-3 IG G.R).

578 ### Changes between 3.1.0 and 3.1.1 [30 May 2023]
579
580 * Mitigate for the time it takes for `OBJ_obj2txt` to translate gigantic
581 OBJECT IDENTIFIER sub-identifiers to canonical numeric text form.
582
583 OBJ_obj2txt() would translate any size OBJECT IDENTIFIER to canonical
584 numeric text form. For gigantic sub-identifiers, this would take a very
585 long time, the time complexity being O(n^2) where n is the size of that
586 sub-identifier. ([CVE-2023-2650])
587
588 To mitigitate this, `OBJ_obj2txt()` will only translate an OBJECT
589 IDENTIFIER to canonical numeric text form if the size of that OBJECT
590 IDENTIFIER is 586 bytes or less, and fail otherwise.
591
592 The basis for this restriction is [RFC 2578 (STD 58), section 3.5]. OBJECT
593 IDENTIFIER values, which stipulates that OBJECT IDENTIFIERS may have at
594 most 128 sub-identifiers, and that the maximum value that each sub-
595 identifier may have is 2^32-1 (4294967295 decimal).
596
597 For each byte of every sub-identifier, only the 7 lower bits are part of
598 the value, so the maximum amount of bytes that an OBJECT IDENTIFIER with
599 these restrictions may occupy is 32 * 128 / 7, which is approximately 586
600 bytes.
601
602 *Richard Levitte*
603
604 * Multiple algorithm implementation fixes for ARM BE platforms.
605
606 *Liu-ErMeng*
607
608 * Added a -pedantic option to fipsinstall that adjusts the various
609 settings to ensure strict FIPS compliance rather than backwards
610 compatibility.
611
612 *Paul Dale*
613
614 * Fixed buffer overread in AES-XTS decryption on ARM 64 bit platforms which
615 happens if the buffer size is 4 mod 5 in 16 byte AES blocks. This can
616 trigger a crash of an application using AES-XTS decryption if the memory
617 just after the buffer being decrypted is not mapped.
618 Thanks to Anton Romanov (Amazon) for discovering the issue.
619 ([CVE-2023-1255])
620
621 *Nevine Ebeid*
622
623 * Reworked the Fix for the Timing Oracle in RSA Decryption ([CVE-2022-4304]).
624 The previous fix for this timing side channel turned out to cause
625 a severe 2-3x performance regression in the typical use case
626 compared to 3.0.7. The new fix uses existing constant time
627 code paths, and restores the previous performance level while
628 fully eliminating all existing timing side channels.
629 The fix was developed by Bernd Edlinger with testing support
630 by Hubert Kario.
631
632 *Bernd Edlinger*
633
634 * Add FIPS provider configuration option to disallow the use of
635 truncated digests with Hash and HMAC DRBGs (q.v. FIPS 140-3 IG D.R.).
636 The option '-no_drbg_truncated_digests' can optionally be
637 supplied to 'openssl fipsinstall'.
638
639 *Paul Dale*
640
641 * Corrected documentation of X509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy() to mention
642 that it does not enable policy checking. Thanks to David Benjamin for
643 discovering this issue.
644 ([CVE-2023-0466])
645
646 *Tomáš Mráz*
647
648 * Fixed an issue where invalid certificate policies in leaf certificates are
649 silently ignored by OpenSSL and other certificate policy checks are skipped
650 for that certificate. A malicious CA could use this to deliberately assert
651 invalid certificate policies in order to circumvent policy checking on the
652 certificate altogether.
653 ([CVE-2023-0465])
654
655 *Matt Caswell*
656
657 * Limited the number of nodes created in a policy tree to mitigate
658 against CVE-2023-0464. The default limit is set to 1000 nodes, which
659 should be sufficient for most installations. If required, the limit
660 can be adjusted by setting the OPENSSL_POLICY_TREE_NODES_MAX build
661 time define to a desired maximum number of nodes or zero to allow
662 unlimited growth.
663 ([CVE-2023-0464])
664
665 *Paul Dale*
666
667 ### Changes between 3.0 and 3.1.0 [14 Mar 2023]
668
669 * Add FIPS provider configuration option to enforce the
670 Extended Master Secret (EMS) check during the TLS1_PRF KDF.
671 The option '-ems-check' can optionally be supplied to
672 'openssl fipsinstall'.
673
674 *Shane Lontis*
675
676 * The FIPS provider includes a few non-approved algorithms for
677 backward compatibility purposes and the "fips=yes" property query
678 must be used for all algorithm fetches to ensure FIPS compliance.
679
680 The algorithms that are included but not approved are Triple DES ECB,
681 Triple DES CBC and EdDSA.
682
683 *Paul Dale*
684
685 * Added support for KMAC in KBKDF.
686
687 *Shane Lontis*
688
689 * RNDR and RNDRRS support in provider functions to provide
690 random number generation for Arm CPUs (aarch64).
691
692 *Orr Toledano*
693
694 * s_client and s_server apps now explicitly say when the TLS version
695 does not include the renegotiation mechanism. This avoids confusion
696 between that scenario versus when the TLS version includes secure
697 renegotiation but the peer lacks support for it.
698
699 *Felipe Gasper*
700
701 * AES-GCM enabled with AVX512 vAES and vPCLMULQDQ.
702
703 *Tomasz Kantecki, Andrey Matyukov*
704
705 * The various OBJ_* functions have been made thread safe.
706
707 *Paul Dale*
708
709 * Parallel dual-prime 1536/2048-bit modular exponentiation for
710 AVX512_IFMA capable processors.
711
712 *Sergey Kirillov, Andrey Matyukov (Intel Corp)*
713
714 * The functions `OPENSSL_LH_stats`, `OPENSSL_LH_node_stats`,
715 `OPENSSL_LH_node_usage_stats`, `OPENSSL_LH_stats_bio`,
716 `OPENSSL_LH_node_stats_bio` and `OPENSSL_LH_node_usage_stats_bio` are now
717 marked deprecated from OpenSSL 3.1 onwards and can be disabled by defining
718 `OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED_3_1`.
719
720 The macro `DEFINE_LHASH_OF` is now deprecated in favour of the macro
721 `DEFINE_LHASH_OF_EX`, which omits the corresponding type-specific function
722 definitions for these functions regardless of whether
723 `OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED_3_1` is defined.
724
725 Users of `DEFINE_LHASH_OF` may start receiving deprecation warnings for these
726 functions regardless of whether they are using them. It is recommended that
727 users transition to the new macro, `DEFINE_LHASH_OF_EX`.
728
729 *Hugo Landau*
730
731 * When generating safe-prime DH parameters set the recommended private key
732 length equivalent to minimum key lengths as in RFC 7919.
733
734 *Tomáš Mráz*
735
736 * Change the default salt length for PKCS#1 RSASSA-PSS signatures to the
737 maximum size that is smaller or equal to the digest length to comply with
738 FIPS 186-4 section 5. This is implemented by a new option
739 `OSSL_PKEY_RSA_PSS_SALT_LEN_AUTO_DIGEST_MAX` ("auto-digestmax") for the
740 `rsa_pss_saltlen` parameter, which is now the default. Signature
741 verification is not affected by this change and continues to work as before.
742
743 *Clemens Lang*
744
745 OpenSSL 3.0
746 -----------
747
748 For OpenSSL 3.0 a [Migration guide][] has been added, so the CHANGES entries
749 listed here are only a brief description.
750 The migration guide contains more detailed information related to new features,
751 breaking changes, and mappings for the large list of deprecated functions.
752
753 [Migration guide]: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/tree/master/doc/man7/migration_guide.pod
754
755 ### Changes between 3.0.7 and 3.0.8 [7 Feb 2023]
756
757 * Fixed NULL dereference during PKCS7 data verification.
758
759 A NULL pointer can be dereferenced when signatures are being
760 verified on PKCS7 signed or signedAndEnveloped data. In case the hash
761 algorithm used for the signature is known to the OpenSSL library but
762 the implementation of the hash algorithm is not available the digest
763 initialization will fail. There is a missing check for the return
764 value from the initialization function which later leads to invalid
765 usage of the digest API most likely leading to a crash.
766 ([CVE-2023-0401])
767
768 PKCS7 data is processed by the SMIME library calls and also by the
769 time stamp (TS) library calls. The TLS implementation in OpenSSL does
770 not call these functions however third party applications would be
771 affected if they call these functions to verify signatures on untrusted
772 data.
773
774 *Tomáš Mráz*
775
776 * Fixed X.400 address type confusion in X.509 GeneralName.
777
778 There is a type confusion vulnerability relating to X.400 address processing
779 inside an X.509 GeneralName. X.400 addresses were parsed as an ASN1_STRING
780 but the public structure definition for GENERAL_NAME incorrectly specified
781 the type of the x400Address field as ASN1_TYPE. This field is subsequently
782 interpreted by the OpenSSL function GENERAL_NAME_cmp as an ASN1_TYPE rather
783 than an ASN1_STRING.
784
785 When CRL checking is enabled (i.e. the application sets the
786 X509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK flag), this vulnerability may allow an attacker to
787 pass arbitrary pointers to a memcmp call, enabling them to read memory
788 contents or enact a denial of service.
789 ([CVE-2023-0286])
790
791 *Hugo Landau*
792
793 * Fixed NULL dereference validating DSA public key.
794
795 An invalid pointer dereference on read can be triggered when an
796 application tries to check a malformed DSA public key by the
797 EVP_PKEY_public_check() function. This will most likely lead
798 to an application crash. This function can be called on public
799 keys supplied from untrusted sources which could allow an attacker
800 to cause a denial of service attack.
801
802 The TLS implementation in OpenSSL does not call this function
803 but applications might call the function if there are additional
804 security requirements imposed by standards such as FIPS 140-3.
805 ([CVE-2023-0217])
806
807 *Shane Lontis, Tomáš Mráz*
808
809 * Fixed Invalid pointer dereference in d2i_PKCS7 functions.
810
811 An invalid pointer dereference on read can be triggered when an
812 application tries to load malformed PKCS7 data with the
813 d2i_PKCS7(), d2i_PKCS7_bio() or d2i_PKCS7_fp() functions.
814
815 The result of the dereference is an application crash which could
816 lead to a denial of service attack. The TLS implementation in OpenSSL
817 does not call this function however third party applications might
818 call these functions on untrusted data.
819 ([CVE-2023-0216])
820
821 *Tomáš Mráz*
822
823 * Fixed Use-after-free following BIO_new_NDEF.
824
825 The public API function BIO_new_NDEF is a helper function used for
826 streaming ASN.1 data via a BIO. It is primarily used internally to OpenSSL
827 to support the SMIME, CMS and PKCS7 streaming capabilities, but may also
828 be called directly by end user applications.
829
830 The function receives a BIO from the caller, prepends a new BIO_f_asn1
831 filter BIO onto the front of it to form a BIO chain, and then returns
832 the new head of the BIO chain to the caller. Under certain conditions,
833 for example if a CMS recipient public key is invalid, the new filter BIO
834 is freed and the function returns a NULL result indicating a failure.
835 However, in this case, the BIO chain is not properly cleaned up and the
836 BIO passed by the caller still retains internal pointers to the previously
837 freed filter BIO. If the caller then goes on to call BIO_pop() on the BIO
838 then a use-after-free will occur. This will most likely result in a crash.
839 ([CVE-2023-0215])
840
841 *Viktor Dukhovni, Matt Caswell*
842
843 * Fixed Double free after calling PEM_read_bio_ex.
844
845 The function PEM_read_bio_ex() reads a PEM file from a BIO and parses and
846 decodes the "name" (e.g. "CERTIFICATE"), any header data and the payload
847 data. If the function succeeds then the "name_out", "header" and "data"
848 arguments are populated with pointers to buffers containing the relevant
849 decoded data. The caller is responsible for freeing those buffers. It is
850 possible to construct a PEM file that results in 0 bytes of payload data.
851 In this case PEM_read_bio_ex() will return a failure code but will populate
852 the header argument with a pointer to a buffer that has already been freed.
853 If the caller also frees this buffer then a double free will occur. This
854 will most likely lead to a crash.
855
856 The functions PEM_read_bio() and PEM_read() are simple wrappers around
857 PEM_read_bio_ex() and therefore these functions are also directly affected.
858
859 These functions are also called indirectly by a number of other OpenSSL
860 functions including PEM_X509_INFO_read_bio_ex() and
861 SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo_file() which are also vulnerable. Some OpenSSL
862 internal uses of these functions are not vulnerable because the caller does
863 not free the header argument if PEM_read_bio_ex() returns a failure code.
864 ([CVE-2022-4450])
865
866 *Kurt Roeckx, Matt Caswell*
867
868 * Fixed Timing Oracle in RSA Decryption.
869
870 A timing based side channel exists in the OpenSSL RSA Decryption
871 implementation which could be sufficient to recover a plaintext across
872 a network in a Bleichenbacher style attack. To achieve a successful
873 decryption an attacker would have to be able to send a very large number
874 of trial messages for decryption. The vulnerability affects all RSA padding
875 modes: PKCS#1 v1.5, RSA-OEAP and RSASVE.
876 ([CVE-2022-4304])
877
878 *Dmitry Belyavsky, Hubert Kario*
879
880 * Fixed X.509 Name Constraints Read Buffer Overflow.
881
882 A read buffer overrun can be triggered in X.509 certificate verification,
883 specifically in name constraint checking. The read buffer overrun might
884 result in a crash which could lead to a denial of service attack.
885 In a TLS client, this can be triggered by connecting to a malicious
886 server. In a TLS server, this can be triggered if the server requests
887 client authentication and a malicious client connects.
888 ([CVE-2022-4203])
889
890 *Viktor Dukhovni*
891
892 * Fixed X.509 Policy Constraints Double Locking security issue.
893
894 If an X.509 certificate contains a malformed policy constraint and
895 policy processing is enabled, then a write lock will be taken twice
896 recursively. On some operating systems (most widely: Windows) this
897 results in a denial of service when the affected process hangs. Policy
898 processing being enabled on a publicly facing server is not considered
899 to be a common setup.
900 ([CVE-2022-3996])
901
902 *Paul Dale*
903
904 * Our provider implementations of `OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_EXPORT` and
905 `OSSL_FUNC_KEYMGMT_GET_PARAMS` for EC and SM2 keys now honor
906 `OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_EC_POINT_CONVERSION_FORMAT` as set (and
907 default to `POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED`) when exporting
908 `OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_PUB_KEY`, instead of unconditionally using
909 `POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED` as in previous 3.x releases.
910 For symmetry, our implementation of `EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD->export_to`
911 for legacy EC and SM2 keys is also changed similarly to honor the
912 equivalent conversion format flag as specified in the underlying
913 `EC_KEY` object being exported to a provider, when this function is
914 called through `EVP_PKEY_export()`.
915
916 *Nicola Tuveri*
917
918 ### Changes between 3.0.6 and 3.0.7 [1 Nov 2022]
919
920 * Fixed two buffer overflows in punycode decoding functions.
921
922 A buffer overrun can be triggered in X.509 certificate verification,
923 specifically in name constraint checking. Note that this occurs after
924 certificate chain signature verification and requires either a CA to
925 have signed the malicious certificate or for the application to continue
926 certificate verification despite failure to construct a path to a trusted
927 issuer.
928
929 In a TLS client, this can be triggered by connecting to a malicious
930 server. In a TLS server, this can be triggered if the server requests
931 client authentication and a malicious client connects.
932
933 An attacker can craft a malicious email address to overflow
934 an arbitrary number of bytes containing the `.` character (decimal 46)
935 on the stack. This buffer overflow could result in a crash (causing a
936 denial of service).
937 ([CVE-2022-3786])
938
939 An attacker can craft a malicious email address to overflow four
940 attacker-controlled bytes on the stack. This buffer overflow could
941 result in a crash (causing a denial of service) or potentially remote code
942 execution depending on stack layout for any given platform/compiler.
943 ([CVE-2022-3602])
944
945 *Paul Dale*
946
947 * Removed all references to invalid OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA names for CRT
948 parameters in OpenSSL code.
949 Applications should not use the names OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR,
950 OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_EXPONENT and OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_COEFFICIENT.
951 Use the numbered names such as OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_RSA_FACTOR1 instead.
952 Using these invalid names may cause algorithms to use slower methods
953 that ignore the CRT parameters.
954
955 *Shane Lontis*
956
957 * Fixed a regression introduced in 3.0.6 version raising errors on some stack
958 operations.
959
960 *Tomáš Mráz*
961
962 * Fixed a regression introduced in 3.0.6 version not refreshing the certificate
963 data to be signed before signing the certificate.
964
965 *Gibeom Gwon*
966
967 * Added RIPEMD160 to the default provider.
968
969 *Paul Dale*
970
971 * Ensured that the key share group sent or accepted for the key exchange
972 is allowed for the protocol version.
973
974 *Matt Caswell*
975
976 ### Changes between 3.0.5 and 3.0.6 [11 Oct 2022]
977
978 * OpenSSL supports creating a custom cipher via the legacy
979 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new() function and associated function calls. This function
980 was deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0 and application authors are instead encouraged
981 to use the new provider mechanism in order to implement custom ciphers.
982
983 OpenSSL versions 3.0.0 to 3.0.5 incorrectly handle legacy custom ciphers
984 passed to the EVP_EncryptInit_ex2(), EVP_DecryptInit_ex2() and
985 EVP_CipherInit_ex2() functions (as well as other similarly named encryption
986 and decryption initialisation functions). Instead of using the custom cipher
987 directly it incorrectly tries to fetch an equivalent cipher from the
988 available providers. An equivalent cipher is found based on the NID passed to
989 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(). This NID is supposed to represent the unique NID for a
990 given cipher. However it is possible for an application to incorrectly pass
991 NID_undef as this value in the call to EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(). When NID_undef
992 is used in this way the OpenSSL encryption/decryption initialisation function
993 will match the NULL cipher as being equivalent and will fetch this from the
994 available providers. This will succeed if the default provider has been
995 loaded (or if a third party provider has been loaded that offers this
996 cipher). Using the NULL cipher means that the plaintext is emitted as the
997 ciphertext.
998
999 Applications are only affected by this issue if they call
1000 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new() using NID_undef and subsequently use it in a call to an
1001 encryption/decryption initialisation function. Applications that only use
1002 SSL/TLS are not impacted by this issue.
1003 ([CVE-2022-3358])
1004
1005 *Matt Caswell*
1006
1007 * Fix LLVM vs Apple LLVM version numbering confusion that caused build failures
1008 on MacOS 10.11
1009
1010 *Richard Levitte*
1011
1012 * Fixed the linux-mips64 Configure target which was missing the
1013 SIXTY_FOUR_BIT bn_ops flag. This was causing heap corruption on that
1014 platform.
1015
1016 *Adam Joseph*
1017
1018 * Fix handling of a ticket key callback that returns 0 in TLSv1.3 to not send a
1019 ticket
1020
1021 *Matt Caswell*
1022
1023 * Correctly handle a retransmitted ClientHello in DTLS
1024
1025 *Matt Caswell*
1026
1027 * Fixed detection of ktls support in cross-compile environment on Linux
1028
1029 *Tomas Mraz*
1030
1031 * Fixed some regressions and test failures when running the 3.0.0 FIPS provider
1032 against 3.0.x
1033
1034 *Paul Dale*
1035
1036 * Fixed SSL_pending() and SSL_has_pending() with DTLS which were failing to
1037 report correct results in some cases
1038
1039 *Matt Caswell*
1040
1041 * Fix UWP builds by defining VirtualLock
1042
1043 *Charles Milette*
1044
1045 * For known safe primes use the minimum key length according to RFC 7919.
1046 Longer private key sizes unnecessarily raise the cycles needed to compute the
1047 shared secret without any increase of the real security. This fixes a
1048 regression from 1.1.1 where these shorter keys were generated for the known
1049 safe primes.
1050
1051 *Tomas Mraz*
1052
1053 * Added the loongarch64 target
1054
1055 *Shi Pujin*
1056
1057 * Fixed EC ASM flag passing. Flags for ASM implementations of EC curves were
1058 only passed to the FIPS provider and not to the default or legacy provider.
1059
1060 *Juergen Christ*
1061
1062 * Fixed reported performance degradation on aarch64. Restored the
1063 implementation prior to commit 2621751 ("aes/asm/aesv8-armx.pl: avoid
1064 32-bit lane assignment in CTR mode") for 64bit targets only, since it is
1065 reportedly 2-17% slower and the silicon errata only affects 32bit targets.
1066 The new algorithm is still used for 32 bit targets.
1067
1068 *Bernd Edlinger*
1069
1070 * Added a missing header for memcmp that caused compilation failure on some
1071 platforms
1072
1073 *Gregor Jasny*
1074
1075 ### Changes between 3.0.4 and 3.0.5 [5 Jul 2022]
1076
1077 * The OpenSSL 3.0.4 release introduced a serious bug in the RSA
1078 implementation for X86_64 CPUs supporting the AVX512IFMA instructions.
1079 This issue makes the RSA implementation with 2048 bit private keys
1080 incorrect on such machines and memory corruption will happen during
1081 the computation. As a consequence of the memory corruption an attacker
1082 may be able to trigger a remote code execution on the machine performing
1083 the computation.
1084
1085 SSL/TLS servers or other servers using 2048 bit RSA private keys running
1086 on machines supporting AVX512IFMA instructions of the X86_64 architecture
1087 are affected by this issue.
1088 ([CVE-2022-2274])
1089
1090 *Xi Ruoyao*
1091
1092 * AES OCB mode for 32-bit x86 platforms using the AES-NI assembly optimised
1093 implementation would not encrypt the entirety of the data under some
1094 circumstances. This could reveal sixteen bytes of data that was
1095 preexisting in the memory that wasn't written. In the special case of
1096 "in place" encryption, sixteen bytes of the plaintext would be revealed.
1097
1098 Since OpenSSL does not support OCB based cipher suites for TLS and DTLS,
1099 they are both unaffected.

1103
1104 ### Changes between 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 [21 Jun 2022]
1105
1106 * In addition to the c_rehash shell command injection identified in
1107 CVE-2022-1292, further bugs where the c_rehash script does not
1108 properly sanitise shell metacharacters to prevent command injection have been
1109 fixed.
1110
1111 When the CVE-2022-1292 was fixed it was not discovered that there
1112 are other places in the script where the file names of certificates
1113 being hashed were possibly passed to a command executed through the shell.
1114
1115 This script is distributed by some operating systems in a manner where
1116 it is automatically executed. On such operating systems, an attacker
1117 could execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the script.
1118
1119 Use of the c_rehash script is considered obsolete and should be replaced
1120 by the OpenSSL rehash command line tool.
1121 (CVE-2022-2068)
1122
1123 *Daniel Fiala, Tomáš Mráz*
1124
1125 * Case insensitive string comparison no longer uses locales. It has instead
1126 been directly implemented.
1127
1128 *Paul Dale*
1129
1130 ### Changes between 3.0.2 and 3.0.3 [3 May 2022]
1131
1132 * Case insensitive string comparison is reimplemented via new locale-agnostic
1133 comparison functions OPENSSL_str[n]casecmp always using the POSIX locale for
1134 comparison. The previous implementation had problems when the Turkish locale
1135 was used.
1136
1137 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
1138
1139 * Fixed a bug in the c_rehash script which was not properly sanitising shell
1140 metacharacters to prevent command injection. This script is distributed by
1141 some operating systems in a manner where it is automatically executed. On
1142 such operating systems, an attacker could execute arbitrary commands with the
1143 privileges of the script.
1144
1145 Use of the c_rehash script is considered obsolete and should be replaced
1146 by the OpenSSL rehash command line tool.
1147 (CVE-2022-1292)
1148
1149 *Tomáš Mráz*
1150
1151 * Fixed a bug in the function `OCSP_basic_verify` that verifies the signer
1152 certificate on an OCSP response. The bug caused the function in the case
1153 where the (non-default) flag OCSP_NOCHECKS is used to return a postivie
1154 response (meaning a successful verification) even in the case where the
1155 response signing certificate fails to verify.
1156
1157 It is anticipated that most users of `OCSP_basic_verify` will not use the
1158 OCSP_NOCHECKS flag. In this case the `OCSP_basic_verify` function will return
1159 a negative value (indicating a fatal error) in the case of a certificate
1160 verification failure. The normal expected return value in this case would be
1161 0.
1162
1163 This issue also impacts the command line OpenSSL "ocsp" application. When
1164 verifying an ocsp response with the "-no_cert_checks" option the command line
1165 application will report that the verification is successful even though it
1166 has in fact failed. In this case the incorrect successful response will also
1167 be accompanied by error messages showing the failure and contradicting the
1168 apparently successful result.
1169 ([CVE-2022-1343])
1170
1171 *Matt Caswell*
1172
1173 * Fixed a bug where the RC4-MD5 ciphersuite incorrectly used the
1174 AAD data as the MAC key. This made the MAC key trivially predictable.
1175
1176 An attacker could exploit this issue by performing a man-in-the-middle attack
1177 to modify data being sent from one endpoint to an OpenSSL 3.0 recipient such
1178 that the modified data would still pass the MAC integrity check.
1179
1180 Note that data sent from an OpenSSL 3.0 endpoint to a non-OpenSSL 3.0
1181 endpoint will always be rejected by the recipient and the connection will
1182 fail at that point. Many application protocols require data to be sent from
1183 the client to the server first. Therefore, in such a case, only an OpenSSL
1184 3.0 server would be impacted when talking to a non-OpenSSL 3.0 client.
1185
1186 If both endpoints are OpenSSL 3.0 then the attacker could modify data being
1187 sent in both directions. In this case both clients and servers could be
1188 affected, regardless of the application protocol.
1189
1190 Note that in the absence of an attacker this bug means that an OpenSSL 3.0
1191 endpoint communicating with a non-OpenSSL 3.0 endpoint will fail to complete
1192 the handshake when using this ciphersuite.
1193
1194 The confidentiality of data is not impacted by this issue, i.e. an attacker
1195 cannot decrypt data that has been encrypted using this ciphersuite - they can
1196 only modify it.
1197
1198 In order for this attack to work both endpoints must legitimately negotiate
1199 the RC4-MD5 ciphersuite. This ciphersuite is not compiled by default in
1200 OpenSSL 3.0, and is not available within the default provider or the default
1201 ciphersuite list. This ciphersuite will never be used if TLSv1.3 has been
1202 negotiated. In order for an OpenSSL 3.0 endpoint to use this ciphersuite the
1203 following must have occurred:
1204
1205 1) OpenSSL must have been compiled with the (non-default) compile time option
1206 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers
1207
1208 2) OpenSSL must have had the legacy provider explicitly loaded (either
1209 through application code or via configuration)
1210
1211 3) The ciphersuite must have been explicitly added to the ciphersuite list
1212
1213 4) The libssl security level must have been set to 0 (default is 1)
1214
1215 5) A version of SSL/TLS below TLSv1.3 must have been negotiated
1216
1217 6) Both endpoints must negotiate the RC4-MD5 ciphersuite in preference to any
1218 others that both endpoints have in common
1219 (CVE-2022-1434)
1220
1221 *Matt Caswell*
1222
1223 * Fix a bug in the OPENSSL_LH_flush() function that breaks reuse of the memory
1224 occupied by the removed hash table entries.
1225
1226 This function is used when decoding certificates or keys. If a long lived
1227 process periodically decodes certificates or keys its memory usage will
1228 expand without bounds and the process might be terminated by the operating
1229 system causing a denial of service. Also traversing the empty hash table
1230 entries will take increasingly more time.
1231
1232 Typically such long lived processes might be TLS clients or TLS servers
1233 configured to accept client certificate authentication.
1234 (CVE-2022-1473)
1235
1236 *Hugo Landau, Aliaksei Levin*
1237
1238 * The functions `OPENSSL_LH_stats` and `OPENSSL_LH_stats_bio` now only report
1239 the `num_items`, `num_nodes` and `num_alloc_nodes` statistics. All other
1240 statistics are no longer supported. For compatibility, these statistics are
1241 still listed in the output but are now always reported as zero.
1242
1243 *Hugo Landau*
1244
1245 ### Changes between 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 [15 Mar 2022]
1246
1247 * Fixed a bug in the BN_mod_sqrt() function that can cause it to loop forever
1248 for non-prime moduli.
1249
1250 Internally this function is used when parsing certificates that contain
1251 elliptic curve public keys in compressed form or explicit elliptic curve
1252 parameters with a base point encoded in compressed form.
1253
1254 It is possible to trigger the infinite loop by crafting a certificate that
1255 has invalid explicit curve parameters.
1256
1257 Since certificate parsing happens prior to verification of the certificate
1258 signature, any process that parses an externally supplied certificate may thus
1259 be subject to a denial of service attack. The infinite loop can also be
1260 reached when parsing crafted private keys as they can contain explicit
1261 elliptic curve parameters.
1262
1263 Thus vulnerable situations include:
1264
1265 - TLS clients consuming server certificates
1266 - TLS servers consuming client certificates
1267 - Hosting providers taking certificates or private keys from customers
1268 - Certificate authorities parsing certification requests from subscribers
1269 - Anything else which parses ASN.1 elliptic curve parameters
1270
1271 Also any other applications that use the BN_mod_sqrt() where the attacker
1272 can control the parameter values are vulnerable to this DoS issue.
1273 ([CVE-2022-0778])
1274
1275 *Tomáš Mráz*
1276
1277 * Add ciphersuites based on DHE_PSK (RFC 4279) and ECDHE_PSK (RFC 5489)
1278 to the list of ciphersuites providing Perfect Forward Secrecy as
1279 required by SECLEVEL >= 3.
1280
1281 *Dmitry Belyavskiy, Nicola Tuveri*
1282
1283 * Made the AES constant time code for no-asm configurations
1284 optional due to the resulting 95% performance degradation.
1285 The AES constant time code can be enabled, for no assembly
1286 builds, with: ./config no-asm -DOPENSSL_AES_CONST_TIME
1287
1288 *Paul Dale*
1289
1290 * Fixed PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() to make it possible to use empty
1291 passphrase strings.
1292
1293 *Darshan Sen*
1294
1295 * The negative return value handling of the certificate verification callback
1296 was reverted. The replacement is to set the verification retry state with
1297 the SSL_set_retry_verify() function.
1298
1299 *Tomáš Mráz*
1300
1301 ### Changes between 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 [14 Dec 2021]
1302
1303 * Fixed invalid handling of X509_verify_cert() internal errors in libssl
1304 Internally libssl in OpenSSL calls X509_verify_cert() on the client side to
1305 verify a certificate supplied by a server. That function may return a
1306 negative return value to indicate an internal error (for example out of
1307 memory). Such a negative return value is mishandled by OpenSSL and will cause
1308 an IO function (such as SSL_connect() or SSL_do_handshake()) to not indicate
1309 success and a subsequent call to SSL_get_error() to return the value
1310 SSL_ERROR_WANT_RETRY_VERIFY. This return value is only supposed to be
1311 returned by OpenSSL if the application has previously called
1312 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(). Since most applications do not do this
1313 the SSL_ERROR_WANT_RETRY_VERIFY return value from SSL_get_error() will be
1314 totally unexpected and applications may not behave correctly as a result. The
1315 exact behaviour will depend on the application but it could result in
1316 crashes, infinite loops or other similar incorrect responses.
1317
1318 This issue is made more serious in combination with a separate bug in OpenSSL
1319 3.0 that will cause X509_verify_cert() to indicate an internal error when
1320 processing a certificate chain. This will occur where a certificate does not
1321 include the Subject Alternative Name extension but where a Certificate
1322 Authority has enforced name constraints. This issue can occur even with valid
1323 chains.
1324 ([CVE-2021-4044])
1325
1326 *Matt Caswell*
1327
1328 * Corrected a few file name and file reference bugs in the build,
1329 installation and setup scripts, which lead to installation verification
1330 failures. Slightly enhanced the installation verification script.
1331
1332 *Richard Levitte*
1333
1334 * Fixed EVP_PKEY_eq() to make it possible to use it with strictly private
1335 keys.
1336
1337 *Richard Levitte*
1338
1339 * Fixed PVK encoder to properly query for the passphrase.
1340
1341 *Tomáš Mráz*
1342
1343 * Multiple fixes in the OSSL_HTTP API functions.
1344
1345 *David von Oheimb*
1346
1347 * Allow sign extension in OSSL_PARAM_allocate_from_text() for the
1348 OSSL_PARAM_INTEGER data type and return error on negative numbers
1349 used with the OSSL_PARAM_UNSIGNED_INTEGER data type. Make
1350 OSSL_PARAM_BLD_push_BN{,_pad}() return an error on negative numbers.
1351
1352 *Richard Levitte*
1353
1354 * Allow copying uninitialized digest contexts with EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex.
1355
1356 *Tomáš Mráz*
1357
1358 * Fixed detection of ARMv7 and ARM64 CPU features on FreeBSD.
1359
1360 *Allan Jude*
1361
1362 * Multiple threading fixes.
1363
1364 *Matt Caswell*
1365
1366 * Added NULL digest implementation to keep compatibility with 1.1.1 version.
1367
1368 *Tomáš Mráz*
1369
1370 * Allow fetching an operation from the provider that owns an unexportable key
1371 as a fallback if that is still allowed by the property query.
1372
1373 *Richard Levitte*
1374
1375 ### Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0.0 [7 Sep 2021]
1376
1377 * TLS_MAX_VERSION, DTLS_MAX_VERSION and DTLS_MIN_VERSION constants are now
1378 deprecated.
1379
1380 *Matt Caswell*
1381
1382 * The `OPENSSL_s390xcap` environment variable can be used to set bits in the
1383 S390X capability vector to zero. This simplifies testing of different code
1384 paths on S390X architecture.
1385
1386 *Patrick Steuer*
1387
1388 * Encrypting more than 2^64 TLS records with AES-GCM is disallowed
1389 as per FIPS 140-2 IG A.5 "Key/IV Pair Uniqueness Requirements from
1390 SP 800-38D". The communication will fail at this point.
1391
1392 *Paul Dale*
1393
1394 * The EC_GROUP_clear_free() function is deprecated as there is nothing
1395 confidential in EC_GROUP data.
1396
1397 *Nicola Tuveri*
1398
1399 * The byte order mark (BOM) character is ignored if encountered at the
1400 beginning of a PEM-formatted file.
1401
1402 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
1403
1404 * Added CMS support for the Russian GOST algorithms.
1405
1406 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
1407
1408 * Due to move of the implementation of cryptographic operations
1409 to the providers, validation of various operation parameters can
1410 be postponed until the actual operation is executed where previously
1411 it happened immediately when an operation parameter was set.
1412
1413 For example when setting an unsupported curve with
1414 EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ec_paramgen_curve_nid() this function call will not
1415 fail but later keygen operations with the EVP_PKEY_CTX will fail.
1416
1417 *OpenSSL team members and many third party contributors*
1418
1419 * The EVP_get_cipherbyname() function will return NULL for algorithms such as
1420 "AES-128-SIV", "AES-128-CBC-CTS" and "CAMELLIA-128-CBC-CTS" which were
1421 previously only accessible via low-level interfaces. Use EVP_CIPHER_fetch()
1422 instead to retrieve these algorithms from a provider.
1423
1424 *Shane Lontis*
1425
1426 * On build targets where the multilib postfix is set in the build
1427 configuration the libdir directory was changing based on whether
1428 the lib directory with the multilib postfix exists on the system
1429 or not. This unpredictable behavior was removed and eventual
1430 multilib postfix is now always added to the default libdir. Use
1431 `--libdir=lib` to override the libdir if adding the postfix is
1432 undesirable.
1433
1434 *Jan Lána*
1435
1436 * The triple DES key wrap functionality now conforms to RFC 3217 but is
1437 no longer interoperable with OpenSSL 1.1.1.
1438
1439 *Paul Dale*
1440
1441 * The ERR_GET_FUNC() function was removed. With the loss of meaningful
1442 function codes, this function can only cause problems for calling
1443 applications.
1444
1445 *Paul Dale*
1446
1447 * Add a configurable flag to output date formats as ISO 8601. Does not
1448 change the default date format.
1449
1450 *William Edmisten*
1451
1452 * Version of MSVC earlier than 1300 could get link warnings, which could
1453 be suppressed if the undocumented -DI_CAN_LIVE_WITH_LNK4049 was set.
1454 Support for this flag has been removed.
1455
1456 *Rich Salz*
1457
1458 * Rework and make DEBUG macros consistent. Remove unused -DCONF_DEBUG,
1459 -DBN_CTX_DEBUG, and REF_PRINT. Add a new tracing category and use it for
1460 printing reference counts. Rename -DDEBUG_UNUSED to -DUNUSED_RESULT_DEBUG
1461 Fix BN_DEBUG_RAND so it compiles and, when set, force DEBUG_RAND to be set
1462 also. Rename engine_debug_ref to be ENGINE_REF_PRINT also for consistency.
1463
1464 *Rich Salz*
1465
1466 * The signatures of the functions to get and set options on SSL and
1467 SSL_CTX objects changed from "unsigned long" to "uint64_t" type.
1468 Some source code changes may be required.
1469
1470 *Rich Salz*
1471
1472 * The public definitions of conf_method_st and conf_st have been
1473 deprecated. They will be made opaque in a future release.
1474
1475 *Rich Salz and Tomáš Mráz*
1476
1477 * Client-initiated renegotiation is disabled by default. To allow it, use
1478 the -client_renegotiation option, the SSL_OP_ALLOW_CLIENT_RENEGOTIATION
1479 flag, or the "ClientRenegotiation" config parameter as appropriate.
1480
1481 *Rich Salz*
1482
1483 * Add "abspath" and "includedir" pragma's to config files, to prevent,
1484 or modify relative pathname inclusion.
1485
1486 *Rich Salz*
1487
1488 * OpenSSL includes a cryptographic module that is intended to be FIPS 140-2
1489 validated. Please consult the README-FIPS and
1490 README-PROVIDERS files, as well as the migration guide.
1491
1492 *OpenSSL team members and many third party contributors*
1493
1494 * For the key types DH and DHX the allowed settable parameters are now different.
1495
1496 *Shane Lontis*
1497
1498 * The openssl commands that read keys, certificates, and CRLs now
1499 automatically detect the PEM or DER format of the input files.
1500
1501 *David von Oheimb, Richard Levitte, and Tomáš Mráz*
1502
1503 * Added enhanced PKCS#12 APIs which accept a library context.
1504
1505 *Jon Spillett*
1506
1507 * The default manual page suffix ($MANSUFFIX) has been changed to "ossl"
1508
1509 *Matt Caswell*
1510
1511 * Added support for Kernel TLS (KTLS).
1512
1513 *Boris Pismenny, John Baldwin and Andrew Gallatin*
1514
1515 * Support for RFC 5746 secure renegotiation is now required by default for
1516 SSL or TLS connections to succeed.
1517
1518 *Benjamin Kaduk*
1519
1520 * The signature of the `copy` functional parameter of the
1521 EVP_PKEY_meth_set_copy() function has changed so its `src` argument is
1522 now `const EVP_PKEY_CTX *` instead of `EVP_PKEY_CTX *`. Similarly
1523 the signature of the `pub_decode` functional parameter of the
1524 EVP_PKEY_asn1_set_public() function has changed so its `pub` argument is
1525 now `const X509_PUBKEY *` instead of `X509_PUBKEY *`.
1526
1527 *David von Oheimb*
1528
1529 * The error return values from some control calls (ctrl) have changed.
1530
1531 *Paul Dale*
1532
1533 * A public key check is now performed during EVP_PKEY_derive_set_peer().
1534
1535 *Shane Lontis*
1536
1537 * Many functions in the EVP_ namespace that are getters of values from
1538 implementations or contexts were renamed to include get or get0 in their
1539 names. Old names are provided as macro aliases for compatibility and
1540 are not deprecated.
1541
1542 *Tomáš Mráz*
1543
1544 * The EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_ENCRYPT, EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_DECRYPT,
1545 EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN, EVP_PKEY_CTRL_CMS_ENCRYPT,
1546 EVP_PKEY_CTRL_CMS_DECRYPT, and EVP_PKEY_CTRL_CMS_SIGN control operations
1547 are deprecated.
1548
1549 *Tomáš Mráz*
1550
1551 * The EVP_PKEY_public_check() and EVP_PKEY_param_check() functions now work for
1552 more key types.
1553
1554 * The output from the command line applications may have minor
1555 changes.
1556
1557 *Paul Dale*
1558
1559 * The output from numerous "printing" may have minor changes.
1560
1561 *David von Oheimb*
1562
1563 * Windows thread synchronization uses read/write primitives (SRWLock) when
1564 supported by the OS, otherwise CriticalSection continues to be used.
1565
1566 *Vincent Drake*
1567
1568 * Add filter BIO BIO_f_readbuffer() that allows BIO_tell() and BIO_seek() to
1569 work on read only BIO source/sinks that do not support these functions.
1570 This allows piping or redirection of a file BIO using stdin to be buffered
1571 into memory. This is used internally in OSSL_DECODER_from_bio().
1572
1573 *Shane Lontis*
1574
1575 * OSSL_STORE_INFO_get_type() may now return an additional value. In 1.1.1
1576 this function would return one of the values OSSL_STORE_INFO_NAME,
1577 OSSL_STORE_INFO_PKEY, OSSL_STORE_INFO_PARAMS, OSSL_STORE_INFO_CERT or
1578 OSSL_STORE_INFO_CRL. Decoded public keys would previously have been reported
1579 as type OSSL_STORE_INFO_PKEY in 1.1.1. In 3.0 decoded public keys are now
1580 reported as having the new type OSSL_STORE_INFO_PUBKEY. Applications
1581 using this function should be amended to handle the changed return value.
1582
1583 *Richard Levitte*
1584
1585 * Improved adherence to Enhanced Security Services (ESS, RFC 2634 and RFC 5035)
1586 for the TSP and CMS Advanced Electronic Signatures (CAdES) implementations.
1587 As required by RFC 5035 check both ESSCertID and ESSCertIDv2 if both present.
1588 Correct the semantics of checking the validation chain in case ESSCertID{,v2}
1589 contains more than one certificate identifier: This means that all
1590 certificates referenced there MUST be part of the validation chain.
1591
1592 *David von Oheimb*
1593
1594 * The implementation of older EVP ciphers related to CAST, IDEA, SEED, RC2, RC4,
1595 RC5, DESX and DES have been moved to the legacy provider.
1596
1597 *Matt Caswell*
1598
1599 * The implementation of the EVP digests MD2, MD4, MDC2, WHIRLPOOL and
1600 RIPEMD-160 have been moved to the legacy provider.
1601
1602 *Matt Caswell*
1603
1604 * The deprecated function EVP_PKEY_get0() now returns NULL being called for a
1605 provided key.
1606
1607 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
1608
1609 * The deprecated functions EVP_PKEY_get0_RSA(),
1610 EVP_PKEY_get0_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_get0_EC_KEY(), EVP_PKEY_get0_DH(),
1611 EVP_PKEY_get0_hmac(), EVP_PKEY_get0_poly1305() and EVP_PKEY_get0_siphash() as
1612 well as the similarly named "get1" functions behave differently in
1613 OpenSSL 3.0.
1614
1615 *Matt Caswell*
1616
1617 * A number of functions handling low-level keys or engines were deprecated
1618 including EVP_PKEY_set1_engine(), EVP_PKEY_get0_engine(), EVP_PKEY_assign(),
1619 EVP_PKEY_get0(), EVP_PKEY_get0_hmac(), EVP_PKEY_get0_poly1305() and
1620 EVP_PKEY_get0_siphash().
1621
1622 *Matt Caswell*
1623
1624 * PKCS#5 PBKDF1 key derivation has been moved from PKCS5_PBE_keyivgen() into
1625 the legacy crypto provider as an EVP_KDF. Applications requiring this KDF
1626 will need to load the legacy crypto provider. This includes these PBE
1627 algorithms which use this KDF:
1628 - NID_pbeWithMD2AndDES_CBC
1629 - NID_pbeWithMD5AndDES_CBC
1630 - NID_pbeWithSHA1AndRC2_CBC
1631 - NID_pbeWithMD2AndRC2_CBC
1632 - NID_pbeWithMD5AndRC2_CBC
1633 - NID_pbeWithSHA1AndDES_CBC
1634
1635 *Jon Spillett*
1636
1637 * Deprecated obsolete BIO_set_callback(), BIO_get_callback(), and
1638 BIO_debug_callback() functions.
1639
1640 *Tomáš Mráz*
1641
1642 * Deprecated obsolete EVP_PKEY_CTX_get0_dh_kdf_ukm() and
1643 EVP_PKEY_CTX_get0_ecdh_kdf_ukm() functions.
1644
1645 *Tomáš Mráz*
1646
1647 * The RAND_METHOD APIs have been deprecated.
1648
1649 *Paul Dale*
1650
1651 * The SRP APIs have been deprecated.
1652
1653 *Matt Caswell*
1654
1655 * Add a compile time option to prevent the caching of provider fetched
1656 algorithms. This is enabled by including the no-cached-fetch option
1657 at configuration time.
1658
1659 *Paul Dale*
1660
1661 * pkcs12 now uses defaults of PBKDF2, AES and SHA-256, with a MAC iteration
1662 count of PKCS12_DEFAULT_ITER.
1663
1664 *Tomáš Mráz and Sahana Prasad*
1665
1666 * The openssl speed command does not use low-level API calls anymore.
1667
1668 *Tomáš Mráz*
1669
1670 * Parallel dual-prime 1024-bit modular exponentiation for AVX512_IFMA
1671 capable processors.
1672
1673 *Ilya Albrekht, Sergey Kirillov, Andrey Matyukov (Intel Corp)*
1674
1675 * Combining the Configure options no-ec and no-dh no longer disables TLSv1.3.
1676
1677 *Matt Caswell*
1678
1679 * Implemented support for fully "pluggable" TLSv1.3 groups. This means that
1680 providers may supply their own group implementations (using either the "key
1681 exchange" or the "key encapsulation" methods) which will automatically be
1682 detected and used by libssl.
1683
1684 *Matt Caswell, Nicola Tuveri*
1685
1686 * The undocumented function X509_certificate_type() has been deprecated;
1687
1688 *Rich Salz*
1689
1690 * Deprecated the obsolete BN_pseudo_rand() and BN_pseudo_rand_range().
1691
1692 *Tomáš Mráz*
1693
1694 * Removed RSA padding mode for SSLv23 (which was only used for
1695 SSLv2). This includes the functions RSA_padding_check_SSLv23() and
1696 RSA_padding_add_SSLv23() and the `-ssl` option in the deprecated
1697 `rsautl` command.
1698
1699 *Rich Salz*
1700
1701 * Deprecated the obsolete X9.31 RSA key generation related functions.
1702
1703 * While a callback function set via `SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback()`
1704 is not allowed to return a value > 1, this is no more taken as failure.
1705
1706 *Viktor Dukhovni and David von Oheimb*
1707
1708 * Deprecated the obsolete X9.31 RSA key generation related functions
1709 BN_X931_generate_Xpq(), BN_X931_derive_prime_ex(), and
1710 BN_X931_generate_prime_ex().
1711
1712 *Tomáš Mráz*
1713
1714 * The default key generation method for the regular 2-prime RSA keys was
1715 changed to the FIPS 186-4 B.3.6 method.
1716
1717 *Shane Lontis*
1718
1719 * Deprecated the BN_is_prime_ex() and BN_is_prime_fasttest_ex() functions.
1720
1721 *Kurt Roeckx*
1722
1723 * Deprecated EVP_MD_CTX_set_update_fn() and EVP_MD_CTX_update_fn().
1724
1725 *Rich Salz*
1726
1727 * Deprecated the type OCSP_REQ_CTX and the functions OCSP_REQ_CTX_*() and
1728 replaced with OSSL_HTTP_REQ_CTX and the functions OSSL_HTTP_REQ_CTX_*().
1729
1730 *Rich Salz, Richard Levitte, and David von Oheimb*
1731
1732 * Deprecated `X509_http_nbio()` and `X509_CRL_http_nbio()`.
1733
1734 *David von Oheimb*
1735
1736 * Deprecated `OCSP_parse_url()`.
1737
1738 *David von Oheimb*
1739
1740 * Validation of SM2 keys has been separated from the validation of regular EC
1741 keys.
1742
1743 *Nicola Tuveri*
1744
1745 * Behavior of the `pkey` app is changed, when using the `-check` or `-pubcheck`
1746 switches: a validation failure triggers an early exit, returning a failure
1747 exit status to the parent process.
1748
1749 *Nicola Tuveri*
1750
1751 * Changed behavior of SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() and SSL_set_ciphersuites()
1752 to ignore unknown ciphers.
1753
1754 *Otto Hollmann*
1755
1756 * The `-cipher-commands` and `-digest-commands` options
1757 of the command line utility `list` have been deprecated.
1758 Instead use the `-cipher-algorithms` and `-digest-algorithms` options.
1759
1760 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
1761
1762 * Added convenience functions for generating asymmetric key pairs:
1763 The 'quick' one-shot (yet somewhat limited) function L<EVP_PKEY_Q_keygen(3)>
1764 and macros for the most common cases: <EVP_RSA_gen(3)> and L<EVP_EC_gen(3)>.
1765
1766 *David von Oheimb*
1767
1768 * All of the low-level EC_KEY functions have been deprecated.
1769
1770 *Shane Lontis, Paul Dale, Richard Levitte, and Tomáš Mráz*
1771
1772 * Deprecated all the libcrypto and libssl error string loading
1773 functions.
1774
1775 *Richard Levitte*
1776
1777 * The functions SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback, as
1778 well as the macros SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh() and SSL_set_tmp_dh() have been
1779 deprecated.
1780
1781 *Matt Caswell*
1782
1783 * The `-crypt` option to the `passwd` command line tool has been removed.
1784
1785 *Paul Dale*
1786
1787 * The -C option to the `x509`, `dhparam`, `dsaparam`, and `ecparam` commands
1788 were removed.
1789
1790 *Rich Salz*
1791
1792 * Add support for AES Key Wrap inverse ciphers to the EVP layer.
1793
1794 *Shane Lontis*
1795
1796 * Deprecated EVP_PKEY_set1_tls_encodedpoint() and
1797 EVP_PKEY_get1_tls_encodedpoint().
1798
1799 *Matt Caswell*
1800
1801 * The security callback, which can be customised by application code, supports
1802 the security operation SSL_SECOP_TMP_DH. One location of the "other" parameter
1803 was incorrectly passing a DH object. It now passed an EVP_PKEY in all cases.
1804
1805 *Matt Caswell*
1806
1807 * Add PKCS7_get_octet_string() and PKCS7_type_is_other() to the public
1808 interface. Their functionality remains unchanged.
1809
1810 *Jordan Montgomery*
1811
1812 * Added new option for 'openssl list', '-providers', which will display the
1813 list of loaded providers, their names, version and status. It optionally
1814 displays their gettable parameters.
1815
1816 *Paul Dale*
1817
1818 * Removed EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type().
1819
1820 *Richard Levitte*
1821
1822 * Deprecated `EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_keygen_pubexp()` and introduced
1823 `EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_rsa_keygen_pubexp()`, which is now preferred.
1824
1825 *Jeremy Walch*
1826
1827 * Changed all "STACK" functions to be macros instead of inline functions. Macro
1828 parameters are still checked for type safety at compile time via helper
1829 inline functions.
1830
1831 *Matt Caswell*
1832
1833 * Remove the RAND_DRBG API
1834
1835 *Paul Dale and Matthias St. Pierre*
1836
1837 * Allow `SSL_set1_host()` and `SSL_add1_host()` to take IP literal addresses
1838 as well as actual hostnames.
1839
1840 *David Woodhouse*
1841
1842 * The 'MinProtocol' and 'MaxProtocol' configuration commands now silently
1843 ignore TLS protocol version bounds when configuring DTLS-based contexts, and
1844 conversely, silently ignore DTLS protocol version bounds when configuring
1845 TLS-based contexts. The commands can be repeated to set bounds of both
1846 types. The same applies with the corresponding "min_protocol" and
1847 "max_protocol" command-line switches, in case some application uses both TLS
1848 and DTLS.
1849
1850 SSL_CTX instances that are created for a fixed protocol version (e.g.
1851 `TLSv1_server_method()`) also silently ignore version bounds. Previously
1852 attempts to apply bounds to these protocol versions would result in an
1853 error. Now only the "version-flexible" SSL_CTX instances are subject to
1854 limits in configuration files in command-line options.
1855
1856 *Viktor Dukhovni*
1857
1858 * Deprecated the `ENGINE` API. Engines should be replaced with providers
1859 going forward.
1860
1861 *Paul Dale*
1862
1863 * Reworked the recorded ERR codes to make better space for system errors.
1864 To distinguish them, the macro `ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR()` indicates if the
1865 given code is a system error (true) or an OpenSSL error (false).
1866
1867 *Richard Levitte*
1868
1869 * Reworked the test perl framework to better allow parallel testing.
1870
1871 *Nicola Tuveri and David von Oheimb*
1872
1873 * Added ciphertext stealing algorithms AES-128-CBC-CTS, AES-192-CBC-CTS and
1874 AES-256-CBC-CTS to the providers. CS1, CS2 and CS3 variants are supported.
1875
1876 *Shane Lontis*
1877
1878 * 'Configure' has been changed to figure out the configuration target if
1879 none is given on the command line. Consequently, the 'config' script is
1880 now only a mere wrapper. All documentation is changed to only mention
1881 'Configure'.
1882
1883 *Rich Salz and Richard Levitte*
1884
1885 * Added a library context `OSSL_LIB_CTX` that applications as well as
1886 other libraries can use to form a separate context within which
1887 libcrypto operations are performed.
1888
1889 *Richard Levitte*
1890
1891 * Added various `_ex` functions to the OpenSSL API that support using
1892 a non-default `OSSL_LIB_CTX`.
1893
1894 *OpenSSL team*
1895
1896 * Handshake now fails if Extended Master Secret extension is dropped
1897 on renegotiation.
1898
1899 *Tomáš Mráz*
1900
1901 * Dropped interactive mode from the `openssl` program.
1902
1903 *Richard Levitte*
1904
1905 * Deprecated `EVP_PKEY_cmp()` and `EVP_PKEY_cmp_parameters()`.
1906
1907 *David von Oheimb and Shane Lontis*
1908
1909 * Deprecated `EC_METHOD_get_field_type()`.
1910
1911 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1912
1913 * Deprecated EC_GFp_simple_method(), EC_GFp_mont_method(),
1914 EC_GF2m_simple_method(), EC_GFp_nist_method(), EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
1915 EC_GFp_nistp256_method(), and EC_GFp_nistp521_method().
1916
1917 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1918
1919 * Deprecated EC_GROUP_new(), EC_GROUP_method_of(), and EC_POINT_method_of().
1920
1921 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1922
1923 * Add CAdES-BES signature verification support, mostly derived
1924 from ESSCertIDv2 TS (RFC 5816) contribution by Marek Klein.
1925
1926 *Filipe Raimundo da Silva*
1927
1928 * Add CAdES-BES signature scheme and attributes support (RFC 5126) to CMS API.
1929
1930 *Antonio Iacono*
1931
1932 * Added the AuthEnvelopedData content type structure (RFC 5083) with AES-GCM
1933 parameter (RFC 5084) for the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS).
1934
1935 *Jakub Zelenka*
1936
1937 * Deprecated EC_POINT_make_affine() and EC_POINTs_make_affine().
1938
1939 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1940
1941 * Deprecated EC_GROUP_precompute_mult(), EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult(), and
1942 EC_KEY_precompute_mult().
1943
1944 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1945
1946 * Deprecated EC_POINTs_mul().
1947
1948 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1949
1950 * Removed FIPS_mode() and FIPS_mode_set().
1951
1952 *Shane Lontis*
1953
1954 * The SSL option SSL_OP_IGNORE_UNEXPECTED_EOF is introduced.
1955
1956 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
1957
1958 * Deprecated EC_POINT_set_Jprojective_coordinates_GFp() and
1959 EC_POINT_get_Jprojective_coordinates_GFp().
1960
1961 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1962
1963 * Added OSSL_PARAM_BLD to the public interface. This allows OSSL_PARAM
1964 arrays to be more easily constructed via a series of utility functions.
1965 Create a parameter builder using OSSL_PARAM_BLD_new(), add parameters using
1966 the various push functions and finally convert to a passable OSSL_PARAM
1967 array using OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param().
1968
1969 *Paul Dale*
1970
1971 * The security strength of SHA1 and MD5 based signatures in TLS has been
1972 reduced.
1973
1974 *Kurt Roeckx*
1975
1976 * Added EVP_PKEY_set_type_by_keymgmt(), to initialise an EVP_PKEY to
1977 contain a provider side internal key.
1978
1979 *Richard Levitte*
1980
1981 * ASN1_verify(), ASN1_digest() and ASN1_sign() have been deprecated.
1982
1983 *Richard Levitte*
1984
1985 * Project text documents not yet having a proper file name extension
1986 (`HACKING`, `LICENSE`, `NOTES*`, `README*`, `VERSION`) have been renamed to
1987 `*.md` as far as reasonable, else `*.txt`, for better use with file managers.
1988
1989 *David von Oheimb*
1990
1991 * The main project documents (README, NEWS, CHANGES, INSTALL, SUPPORT)
1992 have been converted to Markdown with the goal to produce documents
1993 which not only look pretty when viewed online in the browser, but
1994 remain well readable inside a plain text editor.
1995
1996 To achieve this goal, a 'minimalistic' Markdown style has been applied
1997 which avoids formatting elements that interfere too much with the
1998 reading flow in the text file. For example, it
1999
2000 * avoids [ATX headings][] and uses [setext headings][] instead
2001 (which works for `<h1>` and `<h2>` headings only).
2002 * avoids [inline links][] and uses [reference links][] instead.
2003 * avoids [fenced code blocks][] and uses [indented code blocks][] instead.
2004
2005 [ATX headings]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#atx-headings
2006 [setext headings]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#setext-headings
2007 [inline links]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#inline-link
2008 [reference links]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#reference-link
2009 [fenced code blocks]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#fenced-code-blocks
2010 [indented code blocks]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#indented-code-blocks
2011
2012 *Matthias St. Pierre*
2013
2014 * The test suite is changed to preserve results of each test recipe.
2015 A new directory test-runs/ with subdirectories named like the
2016 test recipes are created in the build tree for this purpose.
2017
2018 *Richard Levitte*
2019
2020 * Added an implementation of CMP and CRMF (RFC 4210, RFC 4211 RFC 6712).
2021 This adds `crypto/cmp/`, `crpyto/crmf/`, `apps/cmp.c`, and `test/cmp_*`.
2022 See L<openssl-cmp(1)> and L<OSSL_CMP_exec_IR_ses(3)> as starting points.
2023
2024 *David von Oheimb, Martin Peylo*
2025
2026 * Generalized the HTTP client code from `crypto/ocsp/` into `crpyto/http/`.
2027 It supports arbitrary request and response content types, GET redirection,
2028 TLS, connections via HTTP(S) proxies, connections and exchange via
2029 user-defined BIOs (allowing implicit connections), persistent connections,
2030 and timeout checks. See L<OSSL_HTTP_transfer(3)> etc. for details.
2031 The legacy OCSP-focused (and only partly documented) API
2032 is retained for backward compatibility, while most of it is deprecated.
2033
2034 *David von Oheimb*
2035
2036 * Added `util/check-format.pl`, a tool for checking adherence to the
2037 OpenSSL coding style <https://www.openssl.org/policies/codingstyle.html>.
2038 The checks performed are incomplete and yield some false positives.
2039 Still the tool should be useful for detecting most typical glitches.
2040
2041 *David von Oheimb*
2042
2043 * `BIO_do_connect()` and `BIO_do_handshake()` have been extended:
2044 If domain name resolution yields multiple IP addresses all of them are tried
2045 after `connect()` failures.
2046
2047 *David von Oheimb*
2048
2049 * All of the low-level RSA functions have been deprecated.
2050
2051 *Paul Dale*
2052
2053 * X509 certificates signed using SHA1 are no longer allowed at security
2054 level 1 and above.
2055
2056 *Kurt Roeckx*
2057
2058 * The command line utilities dhparam, dsa, gendsa and dsaparam have been
2059 modified to use PKEY APIs. These commands are now in maintenance mode
2060 and no new features will be added to them.
2061
2062 *Paul Dale*
2063
2064 * The command line utility rsautl has been deprecated.
2065
2066 *Paul Dale*
2067
2068 * The command line utilities genrsa and rsa have been modified to use PKEY
2069 APIs. They now write PKCS#8 keys by default. These commands are now in
2070 maintenance mode and no new features will be added to them.
2071
2072 *Paul Dale*
2073
2074 * All of the low-level DH functions have been deprecated.
2075
2076 *Paul Dale and Matt Caswell*
2077
2078 * All of the low-level DSA functions have been deprecated.
2079
2080 *Paul Dale*
2081
2082 * Reworked the treatment of EC EVP_PKEYs with the SM2 curve to
2083 automatically become EVP_PKEY_SM2 rather than EVP_PKEY_EC.
2084
2085 *Richard Levitte*
2086
2087 * Deprecated low-level ECDH and ECDSA functions.
2088
2089 *Paul Dale*
2090
2091 * Deprecated EVP_PKEY_decrypt_old() and EVP_PKEY_encrypt_old().
2092
2093 *Richard Levitte*
2094
2095 * Enhanced the documentation of EVP_PKEY_get_size(), EVP_PKEY_get_bits()
2096 and EVP_PKEY_get_security_bits(). Especially EVP_PKEY_get_size() needed
2097 a new formulation to include all the things it can be used for,
2098 as well as words of caution.
2099
2100 *Richard Levitte*
2101
2102 * The SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_cb(3) function has been deprecated.
2103
2104 *Paul Dale*
2105
2106 * All of the low-level HMAC functions have been deprecated.
2107
2108 *Paul Dale and David von Oheimb*
2109
2110 * Over two thousand fixes were made to the documentation, including:
2111 - Common options (such as -rand/-writerand, TLS version control, etc)
2112 were refactored and point to newly-enhanced descriptions in openssl.pod.
2113 - Added style conformance for all options (with help from Richard Levitte),
2114 documented all reported missing options, added a CI build to check
2115 that all options are documented and that no unimplemented options
2116 are documented.
2117 - Documented some internals, such as all use of environment variables.
2118 - Addressed all internal broken L<> references.
2119
2120 *Rich Salz*
2121
2122 * All of the low-level CMAC functions have been deprecated.
2123
2124 *Paul Dale*
2125
2126 * The low-level MD2, MD4, MD5, MDC2, RIPEMD160 and Whirlpool digest
2127 functions have been deprecated.
2128
2129 *Paul Dale and David von Oheimb*
2130
2131 * Corrected the documentation of the return values from the `EVP_DigestSign*`
2132 set of functions. The documentation mentioned negative values for some
2133 errors, but this was never the case, so the mention of negative values
2134 was removed.
2135
2136 Code that followed the documentation and thereby check with something
2137 like `EVP_DigestSignInit(...) <= 0` will continue to work undisturbed.
2138
2139 *Richard Levitte*
2140
2141 * All of the low-level cipher functions have been deprecated.
2142
2143 *Matt Caswell and Paul Dale*
2144
2145 * Removed include/openssl/opensslconf.h.in and replaced it with
2146 include/openssl/configuration.h.in, which differs in not including
2147 <openssl/macros.h>. A short header include/openssl/opensslconf.h
2148 was added to include both.
2149
2150 This allows internal hacks where one might need to modify the set
2151 of configured macros, for example this if deprecated symbols are
2152 still supposed to be available internally:
2153
2154 #include <openssl/configuration.h>
2155
2156 #undef OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED
2157 #define OPENSSL_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATED
2158
2159 #include <openssl/macros.h>
2160
2161 This should not be used by applications that use the exported
2162 symbols, as that will lead to linking errors.
2163
2164 *Richard Levitte*
2165
2166 * Fixed an overflow bug in the x64_64 Montgomery squaring procedure
2167 used in exponentiation with 512-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are
2168 affected. Analysis suggests that attacks against 2-prime RSA1024,
2169 3-prime RSA1536, and DSA1024 as a result of this defect would be very
2170 difficult to perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH512
2171 are considered just feasible. However, for an attack the target would
2172 have to reuse the DH512 private key, which is not recommended anyway.
2173 Also applications directly using the low-level API BN_mod_exp may be
2174 affected if they use BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2175 ([CVE-2019-1551])
2176
2177 *Andy Polyakov*
2178
2179 * Most memory-debug features have been deprecated, and the functionality
2180 replaced with no-ops.
2181
2182 *Rich Salz*
2183
2184 * Added documentation for the STACK API.
2185
2186 *Rich Salz*
2187
2188 * Introduced a new method type and API, OSSL_ENCODER, to represent
2189 generic encoders. These do the same sort of job that PEM writers
2190 and d2i functions do, but with support for methods supplied by
2191 providers, and the possibility for providers to support other
2192 formats as well.
2193
2194 *Richard Levitte*
2195
2196 * Introduced a new method type and API, OSSL_DECODER, to represent
2197 generic decoders. These do the same sort of job that PEM readers
2198 and i2d functions do, but with support for methods supplied by
2199 providers, and the possibility for providers to support other
2200 formats as well.
2201
2202 *Richard Levitte*
2203
2204 * Added a .pragma directive to the syntax of configuration files, to
2205 allow varying behavior in a supported and predictable manner.
2206 Currently added pragma:
2207
2208 .pragma dollarid:on
2209
2210 This allows dollar signs to be a keyword character unless it's
2211 followed by a opening brace or parenthesis. This is useful for
2212 platforms where dollar signs are commonly used in names, such as
2213 volume names and system directory names on VMS.
2214
2215 *Richard Levitte*
2216
2217 * Added functionality to create an EVP_PKEY from user data.
2218
2219 *Richard Levitte*
2220
2221 * Change the interpretation of the '--api' configuration option to
2222 mean that this is a desired API compatibility level with no
2223 further meaning. The previous interpretation, that this would
2224 also mean to remove all deprecated symbols up to and including
2225 the given version, no requires that 'no-deprecated' is also used
2226 in the configuration.
2227
2228 When building applications, the desired API compatibility level
2229 can be set with the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT macro like before. For
2230 API compatibility version below 3.0, the old style numerical
2231 value is valid as before, such as -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L.
2232 For version 3.0 and on, the value is expected to be the decimal
2233 value calculated from the major and minor version like this:
2234
2235 MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100
2236
2237 Examples:
2238
2239 -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=30000 For 3.0
2240 -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=30200 For 3.2
2241
2242 To hide declarations that are deprecated up to and including the
2243 given API compatibility level, -DOPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED must be
2244 given when building the application as well.
2245
2246 *Richard Levitte*
2247
2248 * Added the X509_LOOKUP_METHOD called X509_LOOKUP_store, to allow
2249 access to certificate and CRL stores via URIs and OSSL_STORE
2250 loaders.
2251
2252 This adds the following functions:
2253
2254 - X509_LOOKUP_store()
2255 - X509_STORE_load_file()
2256 - X509_STORE_load_path()
2257 - X509_STORE_load_store()
2258 - SSL_add_store_cert_subjects_to_stack()
2259 - SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_store()
2260 - SSL_CTX_load_verify_file()
2261 - SSL_CTX_load_verify_dir()
2262 - SSL_CTX_load_verify_store()
2263
2264 *Richard Levitte*
2265
2266 * Added a new method to gather entropy on VMS, based on SYS$GET_ENTROPY.
2267 The presence of this system service is determined at run-time.
2268
2269 *Richard Levitte*
2270
2271 * Added functionality to create an EVP_PKEY context based on data
2272 for methods from providers. This takes an algorithm name and a
2273 property query string and simply stores them, with the intent
2274 that any operation that uses this context will use those strings
2275 to fetch the needed methods implicitly, thereby making the port
2276 of application written for pre-3.0 OpenSSL easier.
2277
2278 *Richard Levitte*
2279
2280 * The undocumented function NCONF_WIN32() has been deprecated; for
2281 conversion details see the HISTORY section of doc/man5/config.pod
2282
2283 *Rich Salz*
2284
2285 * Introduced the new functions EVP_DigestSignInit_ex() and
2286 EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex(). The macros EVP_DigestSignUpdate() and
2287 EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate() have been converted to functions. See the man
2288 pages for further details.
2289
2290 *Matt Caswell*
2291
2292 * Over two thousand fixes were made to the documentation, including:
2293 adding missing command flags, better style conformance, documentation
2294 of internals, etc.
2295
2296 *Rich Salz, Richard Levitte*
2297
2298 * s390x assembly pack: add hardware-support for P-256, P-384, P-521,
2299 X25519, X448, Ed25519 and Ed448.
2300
2301 *Patrick Steuer*
2302
2303 * Print all values for a PKCS#12 attribute with 'openssl pkcs12', not just
2304 the first value.
2305
2306 *Jon Spillett*
2307
2308 * Deprecated the public definition of `ERR_STATE` as well as the function
2309 `ERR_get_state()`. This is done in preparation of making `ERR_STATE` an
2310 opaque type.
2311
2312 *Richard Levitte*
2313
2314 * Added ERR functionality to give callers access to the stored function
2315 names that have replaced the older function code based functions.
2316
2317 New functions are ERR_peek_error_func(), ERR_peek_last_error_func(),
2318 ERR_peek_error_data(), ERR_peek_last_error_data(), ERR_get_error_all(),
2319 ERR_peek_error_all() and ERR_peek_last_error_all().
2320
2321 Deprecate ERR functions ERR_get_error_line(), ERR_get_error_line_data(),
2322 ERR_peek_error_line_data(), ERR_peek_last_error_line_data() and
2323 ERR_func_error_string().
2324
2325 *Richard Levitte*
2326
2327 * Extended testing to be verbose for failing tests only. The make variables
2328 VERBOSE_FAILURE or VF can be used to enable this:
2329
2330 $ make VF=1 test # Unix
2331 $ mms /macro=(VF=1) test ! OpenVMS
2332 $ nmake VF=1 test # Windows
2333
2334 *Richard Levitte*
2335
2336 * Added the `-copy_extensions` option to the `x509` command for use with
2337 `-req` and `-x509toreq`. When given with the `copy` or `copyall` argument,
2338 all extensions in the request are copied to the certificate or vice versa.
2339
2340 *David von Oheimb*, *Kirill Stefanenkov <kirill_stefanenkov@rambler.ru>*
2341
2342 * Added the `-copy_extensions` option to the `req` command for use with
2343 `-x509`. When given with the `copy` or `copyall` argument,
2344 all extensions in the certification request are copied to the certificate.
2345
2346 *David von Oheimb*
2347
2348 * The `x509`, `req`, and `ca` commands now make sure that X.509v3 certificates
2349 they generate are by default RFC 5280 compliant in the following sense:
2350 There is a subjectKeyIdentifier extension with a hash value of the public key
2351 and for not self-signed certs there is an authorityKeyIdentifier extension
2352 with a keyIdentifier field or issuer information identifying the signing key.
2353 This is done unless some configuration overrides the new default behavior,
2354 such as `subjectKeyIdentifier = none` and `authorityKeyIdentifier = none`.
2355
2356 *David von Oheimb*
2357
2358 * Added several checks to `X509_verify_cert()` according to requirements in
2359 RFC 5280 in case `X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT` is set
2360 (which may be done by using the CLI option `-x509_strict`):
2361 * The basicConstraints of CA certificates must be marked critical.
2362 * CA certificates must explicitly include the keyUsage extension.
2363 * If a pathlenConstraint is given the key usage keyCertSign must be allowed.
2364 * The issuer name of any certificate must not be empty.
2365 * The subject name of CA certs, certs with keyUsage crlSign,
2366 and certs without subjectAlternativeName must not be empty.
2367 * If a subjectAlternativeName extension is given it must not be empty.
2368 * The signatureAlgorithm field and the cert signature must be consistent.
2369 * Any given authorityKeyIdentifier and any given subjectKeyIdentifier
2370 must not be marked critical.
2371 * The authorityKeyIdentifier must be given for X.509v3 certs
2372 unless they are self-signed.
2373 * The subjectKeyIdentifier must be given for all X.509v3 CA certs.
2374
2375 *David von Oheimb*
2376
2377 * Certificate verification using `X509_verify_cert()` meanwhile rejects EC keys
2378 with explicit curve parameters (specifiedCurve) as required by RFC 5480.
2379
2380 *Tomáš Mráz*
2381
2382 * For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
2383 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a encoded key
2384 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
2385 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
2386 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
2387 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
2388 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
2389 encoded, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
2390 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
2391
2392 *Nicola Tuveri*
2393
2394 * Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
2395 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
2396 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
2397 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
2398 ([CVE-2019-1547])
2399
2400 *Billy Bob Brumley*
2401
2402 * Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
2403 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
2404 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
2405 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
2406 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
2407 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
2408 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
2409 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
2410 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
2411 certificate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
2412 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
2413 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
2414
2415 *Bernd Edlinger*
2416
2417 * Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been
2418 improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for
2419 /dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom.
2420 The seeded state is stored for future library initialisations using
2421 a system global shared memory segment. The shared memory identifier
2422 can be configured by defining OPENSSL_RAND_SEED_DEVRANDOM_SHM_ID to
2423 the desired value. The default identifier is 114.
2424
2425 *Paul Dale*
2426
2427 * Revised BN_generate_prime_ex to not avoid factors 2..17863 in p-1
2428 when primes for RSA keys are computed.
2429 Since we previously always generated primes == 2 (mod 3) for RSA keys,
2430 the 2-prime and 3-prime RSA modules were easy to distinguish, since
2431 `N = p*q = 1 (mod 3)`, but `N = p*q*r = 2 (mod 3)`. Therefore, fingerprinting
2432 2-prime vs. 3-prime RSA keys was possible by computing N mod 3.
2433 This avoids possible fingerprinting of newly generated RSA modules.
2434
2435 *Bernd Edlinger*
2436
2437 * Correct the extended master secret constant on EBCDIC systems. Without this
2438 fix TLS connections between an EBCDIC system and a non-EBCDIC system that
2439 negotiate EMS will fail. Unfortunately this also means that TLS connections
2440 between EBCDIC systems with this fix, and EBCDIC systems without this
2441 fix will fail if they negotiate EMS.
2442
2443 *Matt Caswell*
2444
2445 * Changed the library initialisation so that the config file is now loaded
2446 by default. This was already the case for libssl. It now occurs for both
2447 libcrypto and libssl. Use the OPENSSL_INIT_NO_LOAD_CONFIG option to
2448 `OPENSSL_init_crypto()` to suppress automatic loading of a config file.
2449
2450 *Matt Caswell*
2451
2452 * Introduced new error raising macros, `ERR_raise()` and `ERR_raise_data()`,
2453 where the former acts as a replacement for `ERR_put_error()`, and the
2454 latter replaces the combination `ERR_put_error()` + `ERR_add_error_data()`.
2455 `ERR_raise_data()` adds more flexibility by taking a format string and
2456 an arbitrary number of arguments following it, to be processed with
2457 `BIO_snprintf()`.
2458
2459 *Richard Levitte*
2460
2461 * Introduced a new function, `OSSL_PROVIDER_available()`, which can be used
2462 to check if a named provider is loaded and available. When called, it
2463 will also activate all fallback providers if such are still present.
2464
2465 *Richard Levitte*
2466
2467 * Enforce a minimum DH modulus size of 512 bits.
2468
2469 *Bernd Edlinger*
2470
2471 * Changed DH parameters to generate the order q subgroup instead of 2q.
2472 Previously generated DH parameters are still accepted by DH_check
2473 but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the
2474 private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key.
2475
2476 *Bernd Edlinger*
2477
2478 * Significantly reduce secure memory usage by the randomness pools.
2479
2480 *Paul Dale*
2481
2482 * `{CRYPTO,OPENSSL}_mem_debug_{push,pop}` are now no-ops and have been
2483 deprecated.
2484
2485 *Rich Salz*
2486
2487 * A new type, EVP_KEYEXCH, has been introduced to represent key exchange
2488 algorithms. An implementation of a key exchange algorithm can be obtained
2489 by using the function EVP_KEYEXCH_fetch(). An EVP_KEYEXCH algorithm can be
2490 used in a call to EVP_PKEY_derive_init_ex() which works in a similar way to
2491 the older EVP_PKEY_derive_init() function. See the man pages for the new
2492 functions for further details.
2493
2494 *Matt Caswell*
2495
2496 * The EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_pad() macro has now been converted to a function.
2497
2498 *Matt Caswell*
2499
2500 * Removed the function names from error messages and deprecated the
2501 xxx_F_xxx define's.
2502
2503 *Richard Levitte*
2504
2505 * Removed NextStep support and the macro OPENSSL_UNISTD
2506
2507 *Rich Salz*
2508
2509 * Removed DES_check_key. Also removed OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL,
2510 OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF, OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL.
2511 Also removed "export var as function" capability; we do not export
2512 variables, only functions.
2513
2514 *Rich Salz*
2515
2516 * RC5_32_set_key has been changed to return an int type, with 0 indicating
2517 an error and 1 indicating success. In previous versions of OpenSSL this
2518 was a void type. If a key was set longer than the maximum possible this
2519 would crash.
2520
2521 *Matt Caswell*
2522
2523 * Support SM2 signing and verification schemes with X509 certificate.
2524
2525 *Paul Yang*
2526
2527 * Use SHA256 as the default digest for TS query in the `ts` app.
2528
2529 *Tomáš Mráz*
2530
2531 * Change PBKDF2 to conform to SP800-132 instead of the older PKCS5 RFC2898.
2532
2533 *Shane Lontis*
2534
2535 * Default cipher lists/suites are now available via a function, the
2536 #defines are deprecated.
2537
2538 *Todd Short*
2539
2540 * Add target VC-WIN32-UWP, VC-WIN64A-UWP, VC-WIN32-ARM-UWP and
2541 VC-WIN64-ARM-UWP in Windows OneCore target for making building libraries
2542 for Windows Store apps easier. Also, the "no-uplink" option has been added.
2543
2544 *Kenji Mouri*
2545
2546 * Join the directories crypto/x509 and crypto/x509v3
2547
2548 *Richard Levitte*
2549
2550 * Added command 'openssl kdf' that uses the EVP_KDF API.
2551
2552 *Shane Lontis*
2553
2554 * Added command 'openssl mac' that uses the EVP_MAC API.
2555
2556 *Shane Lontis*
2557
2558 * Added OPENSSL_info() to get diverse built-in OpenSSL data, such
2559 as default directories. Also added the command 'openssl info'
2560 for scripting purposes.
2561
2562 *Richard Levitte*
2563
2564 * The functions AES_ige_encrypt() and AES_bi_ige_encrypt() have been
2565 deprecated.
2566
2567 *Matt Caswell*
2568
2569 * Add prediction resistance to the DRBG reseeding process.
2570
2571 *Paul Dale*
2572
2573 * Limit the number of blocks in a data unit for AES-XTS to 2^20 as
2574 mandated by IEEE Std 1619-2018.
2575
2576 *Paul Dale*
2577
2578 * Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
2579 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the `*sum`
2580 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
2581
2582 *Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale*
2583
2584 * Removed the heartbeat message in DTLS feature, as it has very
2585 little usage and doesn't seem to fulfill a valuable purpose.
2586 The configuration option is now deprecated.
2587
2588 *Richard Levitte*
2589
2590 * Changed the output of 'openssl {digestname} < file' to display the
2591 digest name in its output.
2592
2593 *Richard Levitte*
2594
2595 * Added a new generic trace API which provides support for enabling
2596 instrumentation through trace output.
2597
2598 *Richard Levitte & Matthias St. Pierre*
2599
2600 * Added build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
2601 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
2602 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
2603
2604 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
2605 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
2606
2607 *Richard Levitte*
2608
2609 * Added KB KDF (EVP_KDF_KB) to EVP_KDF.
2610
2611 *Robbie Harwood*
2612
2613 * Added SSH KDF (EVP_KDF_SSHKDF) and KRB5 KDF (EVP_KDF_KRB5KDF) to EVP_KDF.
2614
2615 *Simo Sorce*
2616
2617 * Added Single Step KDF (EVP_KDF_SS), X963 KDF, and X942 KDF to EVP_KDF.
2618
2619 *Shane Lontis*
2620
2621 * Added KMAC to EVP_MAC.
2622
2623 *Shane Lontis*
2624
2625 * Added property based algorithm implementation selection framework to
2626 the core.
2627
2628 *Paul Dale*
2629
2630 * Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
2631 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
2632 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
2633 to affine coordinates.
2634
2635 *Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri*
2636
2637 * Added EVP_KDF, an EVP layer KDF API, to simplify adding KDF and PRF
2638 implementations. This includes an EVP_PKEY to EVP_KDF bridge for
2639 those algorithms that were already supported through the EVP_PKEY API
2640 (scrypt, TLS1 PRF and HKDF). The low-level KDF functions for PBKDF2
2641 and scrypt are now wrappers that call EVP_KDF.
2642
2643 *David Makepeace*
2644
2645 * Build devcrypto engine as a dynamic engine.
2646
2647 *Eneas U de Queiroz*
2648
2649 * Add keyed BLAKE2 to EVP_MAC.
2650
2651 *Antoine Salon*
2652
2653 * Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
2654 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
2655 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
2656 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
2657 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
2658 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
2659
2660 * Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
2661 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
2662
2663 *Bernd Edlinger*
2664
2665 * Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
2666
2667 *Richard Levitte*
2668
2669 * Changed the license to the Apache License v2.0.
2670
2671 *Richard Levitte*
2672
2673 * Switch to a new version scheme using three numbers MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
2674
2675 - Major releases (indicated by incrementing the MAJOR release number)
2676 may introduce incompatible API/ABI changes.
2677 - Minor releases (indicated by incrementing the MINOR release number)
2678 may introduce new features but retain API/ABI compatibility.
2679 - Patch releases (indicated by incrementing the PATCH number)
2680 are intended for bug fixes and other improvements of existing
2681 features only (like improving performance or adding documentation)
2682 and retain API/ABI compatibility.
2683
2684 *Richard Levitte*
2685
2686 * Add support for RFC5297 SIV mode (siv128), including AES-SIV.
2687
2688 *Todd Short*
2689
2690 * Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
2691 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
2692 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
2693
2694 *Richard Levitte*
2695
2696 * Recreate the OS390-Unix config target. It no longer relies on a
2697 special script like it did for OpenSSL pre-1.1.0.
2698
2699 *Richard Levitte*
2700
2701 * Instead of having the source directories listed in Configure, add
2702 a 'build.info' keyword SUBDIRS to indicate what sub-directories to
2703 look into.
2704
2705 *Richard Levitte*
2706
2707 * Add GMAC to EVP_MAC.
2708
2709 *Paul Dale*
2710
2711 * Ported the HMAC, CMAC and SipHash EVP_PKEY_METHODs to EVP_MAC.
2712
2713 *Richard Levitte*
2714
2715 * Added EVP_MAC, an EVP layer MAC API, to simplify adding MAC
2716 implementations. This includes a generic EVP_PKEY to EVP_MAC bridge,
2717 to facilitate the continued use of MACs through raw private keys in
2718 functionality such as `EVP_DigestSign*` and `EVP_DigestVerify*`.
2719
2720 *Richard Levitte*
2721
2722 * Deprecate ECDH_KDF_X9_62().
2723
2724 *Antoine Salon*
2725
2726 * Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
2727 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
2728 are retained for backwards compatibility.
2729
2730 *Antoine Salon*
2731
2732 * AES-XTS mode now enforces that its two keys are different to mitigate
2733 the attacked described in "Efficient Instantiations of Tweakable
2734 Blockciphers and Refinements to Modes OCB and PMAC" by Phillip Rogaway.
2735 Details of this attack can be obtained from:
2736 <http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/%7Erogaway/papers/offsets.pdf>
2737
2738 *Paul Dale*
2739
2740 * Rename the object files, i.e. give them other names than in previous
2741 versions. Their names now include the name of the final product, as
2742 well as its type mnemonic (bin, lib, shlib).
2743
2744 *Richard Levitte*
2745
2746 * Added new option for 'openssl list', '-objects', which will display the
2747 list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names.
2748
2749 *Richard Levitte*
2750
2751 * Added the options `-crl_lastupdate` and `-crl_nextupdate` to `openssl ca`,
2752 allowing the `lastUpdate` and `nextUpdate` fields in the generated CRL to
2753 be set explicitly.
2754
2755 *Chris Novakovic*
2756
2757 * Added support for Linux Kernel TLS data-path. The Linux Kernel data-path
2758 improves application performance by removing data copies and providing
2759 applications with zero-copy system calls such as sendfile and splice.
2760
2761 *Boris Pismenny*
2762
2763 * The SSL option SSL_OP_CLEANSE_PLAINTEXT is introduced.
2764
2765 *Martin Elshuber*
2766
2767 * `PKCS12_parse` now maintains the order of the parsed certificates
2768 when outputting them via `*ca` (rather than reversing it).
2769
2770 *David von Oheimb*
2771
2772 * Deprecated pthread fork support methods.
2773
2774 *Randall S. Becker*
2775
2776 * Added support for FFDHE key exchange in TLS 1.3.
2777
2778 *Raja Ashok*
2779
2780 * Added a new concept for OpenSSL plugability: providers. This
2781 functionality is designed to replace the ENGINE API and ENGINE
2782 implementations, and to be much more dynamic, allowing provider
2783 authors to introduce new algorithms among other things, as long as
2784 there's an API that supports the algorithm type.
2785
2786 With this concept comes a new core API for interaction between
2787 libcrypto and provider implementations. Public libcrypto functions
2788 that want to use providers do so through this core API.
2789
2790 The main documentation for this core API is found in
2791 doc/man7/provider.pod, doc/man7/provider-base.pod, and they in turn
2792 refer to other manuals describing the API specific for supported
2793 algorithm types (also called operations).

2800 ### Changes between 1.1.1m and 1.1.1n [xx XXX xxxx]
2801
2802 ### Changes between 1.1.1l and 1.1.1m [14 Dec 2021]
2803
2804 * Avoid loading of a dynamic engine twice.
2805
2806 *Bernd Edlinger*
2807
2808 * Prioritise DANE TLSA issuer certs over peer certs
2809
2810 *Viktor Dukhovni*
2811
2812 * Fixed random API for MacOS prior to 10.12
2813
2814 These MacOS versions don't support the CommonCrypto APIs
2815
2816 *Lenny Primak*
2817
2818 ### Changes between 1.1.1k and 1.1.1l [24 Aug 2021]
2819
2820 * Fixed an SM2 Decryption Buffer Overflow.
2821
2822 In order to decrypt SM2 encrypted data an application is expected to
2823 call the API function EVP_PKEY_decrypt(). Typically an application will
2824 call this function twice. The first time, on entry, the "out" parameter
2825 can be NULL and, on exit, the "outlen" parameter is populated with the
2826 buffer size required to hold the decrypted plaintext. The application
2827 can then allocate a sufficiently sized buffer and call EVP_PKEY_decrypt()
2828 again, but this time passing a non-NULL value for the "out" parameter.
2829
2830 A bug in the implementation of the SM2 decryption code means that the
2831 calculation of the buffer size required to hold the plaintext returned
2832 by the first call to EVP_PKEY_decrypt() can be smaller than the actual
2833 size required by the second call. This can lead to a buffer overflow
2834 when EVP_PKEY_decrypt() is called by the application a second time with
2835 a buffer that is too small.
2836
2837 A malicious attacker who is able present SM2 content for decryption to
2838 an application could cause attacker chosen data to overflow the buffer
2839 by up to a maximum of 62 bytes altering the contents of other data held
2840 after the buffer, possibly changing application behaviour or causing
2841 the application to crash. The location of the buffer is application
2842 dependent but is typically heap allocated.
2843 ([CVE-2021-3711])
2844
2845 *Matt Caswell*
2846
2847 * Fixed various read buffer overruns processing ASN.1 strings
2848
2849 ASN.1 strings are represented internally within OpenSSL as an ASN1_STRING
2850 structure which contains a buffer holding the string data and a field
2851 holding the buffer length. This contrasts with normal C strings which
2852 are represented as a buffer for the string data which is terminated
2853 with a NUL (0) byte.
2854
2855 Although not a strict requirement, ASN.1 strings that are parsed using
2856 OpenSSL's own "d2i" functions (and other similar parsing functions) as
2857 well as any string whose value has been set with the ASN1_STRING_set()
2858 function will additionally NUL terminate the byte array in the
2859 ASN1_STRING structure.
2860
2861 However, it is possible for applications to directly construct valid
2862 ASN1_STRING structures which do not NUL terminate the byte array by
2863 directly setting the "data" and "length" fields in the ASN1_STRING
2864 array. This can also happen by using the ASN1_STRING_set0() function.
2865
2866 Numerous OpenSSL functions that print ASN.1 data have been found to
2867 assume that the ASN1_STRING byte array will be NUL terminated, even
2868 though this is not guaranteed for strings that have been directly
2869 constructed. Where an application requests an ASN.1 structure to be
2870 printed, and where that ASN.1 structure contains ASN1_STRINGs that have
2871 been directly constructed by the application without NUL terminating
2872 the "data" field, then a read buffer overrun can occur.
2873
2874 The same thing can also occur during name constraints processing
2875 of certificates (for example if a certificate has been directly
2876 constructed by the application instead of loading it via the OpenSSL
2877 parsing functions, and the certificate contains non NUL terminated
2878 ASN1_STRING structures). It can also occur in the X509_get1_email(),
2879 X509_REQ_get1_email() and X509_get1_ocsp() functions.
2880
2881 If a malicious actor can cause an application to directly construct an
2882 ASN1_STRING and then process it through one of the affected OpenSSL
2883 functions then this issue could be hit. This might result in a crash
2884 (causing a Denial of Service attack). It could also result in the
2885 disclosure of private memory contents (such as private keys, or
2886 sensitive plaintext).
2887 ([CVE-2021-3712])
2888
2889 *Matt Caswell*
2890
2891 ### Changes between 1.1.1j and 1.1.1k [25 Mar 2021]
2892
2893 * Fixed a problem with verifying a certificate chain when using the
2894 X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT flag. This flag enables additional security checks of
2895 the certificates present in a certificate chain. It is not set by default.
2896
2897 Starting from OpenSSL version 1.1.1h a check to disallow certificates in
2898 the chain that have explicitly encoded elliptic curve parameters was added
2899 as an additional strict check.
2900
2901 An error in the implementation of this check meant that the result of a
2902 previous check to confirm that certificates in the chain are valid CA
2903 certificates was overwritten. This effectively bypasses the check
2904 that non-CA certificates must not be able to issue other certificates.
2905
2906 If a "purpose" has been configured then there is a subsequent opportunity
2907 for checks that the certificate is a valid CA. All of the named "purpose"
2908 values implemented in libcrypto perform this check. Therefore, where
2909 a purpose is set the certificate chain will still be rejected even when the
2910 strict flag has been used. A purpose is set by default in libssl client and
2911 server certificate verification routines, but it can be overridden or
2912 removed by an application.
2913
2914 In order to be affected, an application must explicitly set the
2915 X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT verification flag and either not set a purpose
2916 for the certificate verification or, in the case of TLS client or server
2917 applications, override the default purpose.
2918 ([CVE-2021-3450])
2919
2920 *Tomáš Mráz*
2921
2922 * Fixed an issue where an OpenSSL TLS server may crash if sent a maliciously
2923 crafted renegotiation ClientHello message from a client. If a TLSv1.2
2924 renegotiation ClientHello omits the signature_algorithms extension (where it
2925 was present in the initial ClientHello), but includes a
2926 signature_algorithms_cert extension then a NULL pointer dereference will
2927 result, leading to a crash and a denial of service attack.
2928
2929 A server is only vulnerable if it has TLSv1.2 and renegotiation enabled
2930 (which is the default configuration). OpenSSL TLS clients are not impacted by
2931 this issue.
2932 ([CVE-2021-3449])
2933
2934 *Peter Kästle and Samuel Sapalski*
2935
2936 ### Changes between 1.1.1i and 1.1.1j [16 Feb 2021]
2937
2938 * Fixed the X509_issuer_and_serial_hash() function. It attempts to
2939 create a unique hash value based on the issuer and serial number data
2940 contained within an X509 certificate. However, it was failing to correctly
2941 handle any errors that may occur while parsing the issuer field (which might
2942 occur if the issuer field is maliciously constructed). This may subsequently
2943 result in a NULL pointer deref and a crash leading to a potential denial of
2944 service attack.
2945 ([CVE-2021-23841])
2946
2947 *Matt Caswell*
2948
2949 * Fixed the RSA_padding_check_SSLv23() function and the RSA_SSLV23_PADDING
2950 padding mode to correctly check for rollback attacks. This is considered a
2951 bug in OpenSSL 1.1.1 because it does not support SSLv2. In 1.0.2 this is
2952 CVE-2021-23839.
2953
2954 *Matt Caswell*
2955
2956 Fixed the EVP_CipherUpdate, EVP_EncryptUpdate and EVP_DecryptUpdate
2957 functions. Previously they could overflow the output length argument in some
2958 cases where the input length is close to the maximum permissible length for
2959 an integer on the platform. In such cases the return value from the function
2960 call would be 1 (indicating success), but the output length value would be
2961 negative. This could cause applications to behave incorrectly or crash.
2962 ([CVE-2021-23840])
2963
2964 *Matt Caswell*
2965
2966 * Fixed SRP_Calc_client_key so that it runs in constant time. The previous
2967 implementation called BN_mod_exp without setting BN_FLG_CONSTTIME. This
2968 could be exploited in a side channel attack to recover the password. Since
2969 the attack is local host only this is outside of the current OpenSSL
2970 threat model and therefore no CVE is assigned.
2971
2972 Thanks to Mohammed Sabt and Daniel De Almeida Braga for reporting this
2973 issue.
2974
2975 *Matt Caswell*
2976
2977 ### Changes between 1.1.1h and 1.1.1i [8 Dec 2020]
2978
2979 * Fixed NULL pointer deref in the GENERAL_NAME_cmp function
2980 This function could crash if both GENERAL_NAMEs contain an EDIPARTYNAME.
2981 If an attacker can control both items being compared then this could lead
2982 to a possible denial of service attack. OpenSSL itself uses the
2983 GENERAL_NAME_cmp function for two purposes:
2984 1) Comparing CRL distribution point names between an available CRL and a
2985 CRL distribution point embedded in an X509 certificate
2986 2) When verifying that a timestamp response token signer matches the
2987 timestamp authority name (exposed via the API functions
2988 TS_RESP_verify_response and TS_RESP_verify_token)
2989 ([CVE-2020-1971])
2990
2991 *Matt Caswell*
2992
2993 ### Changes between 1.1.1g and 1.1.1h [22 Sep 2020]
2994
2995 * Certificates with explicit curve parameters are now disallowed in
2996 verification chains if the X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT flag is used.
2997
2998 *Tomáš Mráz*
2999
3000 * The 'MinProtocol' and 'MaxProtocol' configuration commands now silently
3001 ignore TLS protocol version bounds when configuring DTLS-based contexts, and
3002 conversely, silently ignore DTLS protocol version bounds when configuring
3003 TLS-based contexts. The commands can be repeated to set bounds of both
3004 types. The same applies with the corresponding "min_protocol" and
3005 "max_protocol" command-line switches, in case some application uses both TLS
3006 and DTLS.
3007
3008 SSL_CTX instances that are created for a fixed protocol version (e.g.
3009 TLSv1_server_method()) also silently ignore version bounds. Previously
3010 attempts to apply bounds to these protocol versions would result in an
3011 error. Now only the "version-flexible" SSL_CTX instances are subject to
3012 limits in configuration files in command-line options.
3013
3014 *Viktor Dukhovni*
3015
3016 * Handshake now fails if Extended Master Secret extension is dropped
3017 on renegotiation.
3018
3019 *Tomáš Mráz*
3020
3021 * The Oracle Developer Studio compiler will start reporting deprecated APIs
3022
3023 ### Changes between 1.1.1f and 1.1.1g [21 Apr 2020]
3024
3025 * Fixed segmentation fault in SSL_check_chain()
3026 Server or client applications that call the SSL_check_chain() function
3027 during or after a TLS 1.3 handshake may crash due to a NULL pointer
3028 dereference as a result of incorrect handling of the
3029 "signature_algorithms_cert" TLS extension. The crash occurs if an invalid
3030 or unrecognised signature algorithm is received from the peer. This could
3031 be exploited by a malicious peer in a Denial of Service attack.
3032 ([CVE-2020-1967])
3033
3034 *Benjamin Kaduk*
3035
3036 * Added AES consttime code for no-asm configurations
3037 an optional constant time support for AES was added
3038 when building openssl for no-asm.
3039 Enable with: ./config no-asm -DOPENSSL_AES_CONST_TIME
3040 Disable with: ./config no-asm -DOPENSSL_NO_AES_CONST_TIME
3041 At this time this feature is by default disabled.
3042 It will be enabled by default in 3.0.
3043
3044 *Bernd Edlinger*
3045
3046 ### Changes between 1.1.1e and 1.1.1f [31 Mar 2020]
3047
3048 * Revert the change of EOF detection while reading in libssl to avoid
3049 regressions in applications depending on the current way of reporting
3050 the EOF. As the existing method is not fully accurate the change to
3051 reporting the EOF via SSL_ERROR_SSL is kept on the current development
3052 branch and will be present in the 3.0 release.
3053
3054 *Tomáš Mráz*
3055
3056 * Revised BN_generate_prime_ex to not avoid factors 3..17863 in p-1
3057 when primes for RSA keys are computed.
3058 Since we previously always generated primes == 2 (mod 3) for RSA keys,
3059 the 2-prime and 3-prime RSA modules were easy to distinguish, since
3060 N = p*q = 1 (mod 3), but N = p*q*r = 2 (mod 3). Therefore, fingerprinting
3061 2-prime vs. 3-prime RSA keys was possible by computing N mod 3.
3062 This avoids possible fingerprinting of newly generated RSA modules.
3063
3064 *Bernd Edlinger*
3065
3066 ### Changes between 1.1.1d and 1.1.1e [17 Mar 2020]
3067
3068 * Properly detect EOF while reading in libssl. Previously if we hit an EOF
3069 while reading in libssl then we would report an error back to the
3070 application (SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL) but errno would be 0. We now add
3071 an error to the stack (which means we instead return SSL_ERROR_SSL) and
3072 therefore give a hint as to what went wrong.
3073
3074 *Matt Caswell*
3075
3076 * Check that ed25519 and ed448 are allowed by the security level. Previously
3077 signature algorithms not using an MD were not being checked that they were
3078 allowed by the security level.
3079
3080 *Kurt Roeckx*
3081
3082 * Fixed SSL_get_servername() behaviour. The behaviour of SSL_get_servername()
3083 was not quite right. The behaviour was not consistent between resumption
3084 and normal handshakes, and also not quite consistent with historical
3085 behaviour. The behaviour in various scenarios has been clarified and
3086 it has been updated to make it match historical behaviour as closely as
3087 possible.
3088
3089 *Matt Caswell*
3090
3091 * *[VMS only]* The header files that the VMS compilers include automatically,
3092 `__DECC_INCLUDE_PROLOGUE.H` and `__DECC_INCLUDE_EPILOGUE.H`, use pragmas
3093 that the C++ compiler doesn't understand. This is a shortcoming in the
3094 compiler, but can be worked around with `__cplusplus` guards.
3095
3096 C++ applications that use OpenSSL libraries must be compiled using the
3097 qualifier `/NAMES=(AS_IS,SHORTENED)` to be able to use all the OpenSSL
3098 functions. Otherwise, only functions with symbols of less than 31
3099 characters can be used, as the linker will not be able to successfully
3100 resolve symbols with longer names.
3101
3102 *Richard Levitte*
3103
3104 * Added a new method to gather entropy on VMS, based on SYS$GET_ENTROPY.
3105 The presence of this system service is determined at run-time.
3106
3107 *Richard Levitte*
3108
3109 * Print all values for a PKCS#12 attribute with 'openssl pkcs12', not just
3110 the first value.
3111
3112 *Jon Spillett*
3113
3114 ### Changes between 1.1.1c and 1.1.1d [10 Sep 2019]
3115
3116 * Fixed a fork protection issue. OpenSSL 1.1.1 introduced a rewritten random
3117 number generator (RNG). This was intended to include protection in the
3118 event of a fork() system call in order to ensure that the parent and child
3119 processes did not share the same RNG state. However, this protection was not
3120 being used in the default case.
3121
3122 A partial mitigation for this issue is that the output from a high
3123 precision timer is mixed into the RNG state so the likelihood of a parent
3124 and child process sharing state is significantly reduced.
3125
3126 If an application already calls OPENSSL_init_crypto() explicitly using
3127 OPENSSL_INIT_ATFORK then this problem does not occur at all.
3128 ([CVE-2019-1549])
3129
3130 *Matthias St. Pierre*
3131
3132 * For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
3133 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a encoded key
3134 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
3135 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
3136 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
3137 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
3138 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
3139 encoded, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
3140 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
3141
3142 *Nicola Tuveri*
3143
3144 * Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
3145 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
3146 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
3147 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
3148 ([CVE-2019-1547])
3149
3150 *Billy Bob Brumley*
3151
3152 * Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
3153 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
3154 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
3155 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
3156 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
3157 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
3158 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
3159 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
3160 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
3161 certificate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
3162 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3163 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
3164 ([CVE-2019-1563])
3165
3166 *Bernd Edlinger*
3167
3168 * Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been
3169 improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for
3170 /dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom.
3171 The seeded state is stored for future library initialisations using
3172 a system global shared memory segment. The shared memory identifier
3173 can be configured by defining OPENSSL_RAND_SEED_DEVRANDOM_SHM_ID to
3174 the desired value. The default identifier is 114.
3175
3176 *Paul Dale*
3177
3178 * Correct the extended master secret constant on EBCDIC systems. Without this
3179 fix TLS connections between an EBCDIC system and a non-EBCDIC system that
3180 negotiate EMS will fail. Unfortunately this also means that TLS connections
3181 between EBCDIC systems with this fix, and EBCDIC systems without this
3182 fix will fail if they negotiate EMS.
3183
3184 *Matt Caswell*
3185
3186 * Use Windows installation paths in the mingw builds
3187
3188 Mingw isn't a POSIX environment per se, which means that Windows
3189 paths should be used for installation.
3190 ([CVE-2019-1552])
3191
3192 *Richard Levitte*
3193
3194 * Changed DH_check to accept parameters with order q and 2q subgroups.
3195 With order 2q subgroups the bit 0 of the private key is not secret
3196 but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the
3197 private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key.
3198
3199 *Bernd Edlinger*
3200
3201 * Significantly reduce secure memory usage by the randomness pools.
3202
3203 *Paul Dale*
3204
3205 * Revert the DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
3206
3207 The DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature added a select() call to wait for the
3208 /dev/random device to become readable before reading from the
3209 /dev/urandom device.
3210
3211 It turned out that this change had negative side effects on
3212 performance which were not acceptable. After some discussion it
3213 was decided to revert this feature and leave it up to the OS
3214 resp. the platform maintainer to ensure a proper initialization
3215 during early boot time.
3216
3217 *Matthias St. Pierre*
3218
3219 ### Changes between 1.1.1b and 1.1.1c [28 May 2019]
3220
3221 * Add build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
3222 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
3223 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
3224
3225 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
3226 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
3227
3228 *Richard Levitte*
3229
3230 * Enable SHA3 pre-hashing for ECDSA and DSA.
3231
3232 *Patrick Steuer*
3233
3234 * Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
3235 This changes the size when using the `genpkey` command when no size is given.
3236 It fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
3237 generation commands to use 2048 bits by default.
3238
3239 *Kurt Roeckx*
3240
3241 * Reorganize the manual pages to consistently have RETURN VALUES,
3242 EXAMPLES, SEE ALSO and HISTORY come in that order, and adjust
3243 util/fix-doc-nits accordingly.
3244
3245 *Paul Yang, Joshua Lock*
3246
3247 * Add the missing accessor EVP_PKEY_get0_engine()
3248
3249 *Matt Caswell*
3250
3251 * Have commands like `s_client` and `s_server` output the signature scheme
3252 along with other cipher suite parameters when debugging.
3253
3254 *Lorinczy Zsigmond*
3255
3256 * Make OPENSSL_config() error agnostic again.
3257
3258 *Richard Levitte*
3259
3260 * Do the error handling in RSA decryption constant time.
3261
3262 *Bernd Edlinger*
3263
3264 * Prevent over long nonces in ChaCha20-Poly1305.
3265
3266 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is an AEAD cipher, and requires a unique nonce input
3267 for every encryption operation. RFC 7539 specifies that the nonce value
3268 (IV) should be 96 bits (12 bytes). OpenSSL allows a variable nonce length
3269 and front pads the nonce with 0 bytes if it is less than 12
3270 bytes. However it also incorrectly allows a nonce to be set of up to 16
3271 bytes. In this case only the last 12 bytes are significant and any
3272 additional leading bytes are ignored.
3273
3274 It is a requirement of using this cipher that nonce values are
3275 unique. Messages encrypted using a reused nonce value are susceptible to
3276 serious confidentiality and integrity attacks. If an application changes
3277 the default nonce length to be longer than 12 bytes and then makes a
3278 change to the leading bytes of the nonce expecting the new value to be a
3279 new unique nonce then such an application could inadvertently encrypt
3280 messages with a reused nonce.
3281
3282 Additionally the ignored bytes in a long nonce are not covered by the
3283 integrity guarantee of this cipher. Any application that relies on the
3284 integrity of these ignored leading bytes of a long nonce may be further
3285 affected. Any OpenSSL internal use of this cipher, including in SSL/TLS,
3286 is safe because no such use sets such a long nonce value. However user
3287 applications that use this cipher directly and set a non-default nonce
3288 length to be longer than 12 bytes may be vulnerable.
3289
3290 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th of March 2019 by Joran Dirk
3291 Greef of Ronomon.
3292 ([CVE-2019-1543])
3293
3294 *Matt Caswell*
3295
3296 * Add DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
3297
3298 On older Linux systems where the getrandom() system call is not available,
3299 OpenSSL normally uses the /dev/urandom device for seeding its CSPRNG.
3300 Contrary to getrandom(), the /dev/urandom device will not block during
3301 early boot when the kernel CSPRNG has not been seeded yet.
3302
3303 To mitigate this known weakness, use select() to wait for /dev/random to
3304 become readable before reading from /dev/urandom.
3305
3306 * Ensure that SM2 only uses SM3 as digest algorithm
3307
3308 *Paul Yang*
3309
3310 ### Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [26 Feb 2019]
3311
3312 * Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
3313 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
3314 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
3315 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
3316 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
3317 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
3318 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
3319 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
3320 applications.
3321
3322 *Matt Caswell*
3323
3324 ### Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
3325
3326 * Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
3327
3328 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
3329 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
3330 algorithm to recover the private key.
3331
3332 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
3333 ([CVE-2018-0734])
3334
3335 *Paul Dale*
3336
3337 * Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
3338
3339 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
3340 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
3341 algorithm to recover the private key.
3342
3343 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
3344 ([CVE-2018-0735])
3345
3346 *Paul Dale*
3347
3348 * Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
3349 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
3350 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
3351
3352 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
3353 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
3354 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
3355 provided by the application.
3356
3357 ### Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
3358
3359 * Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
3360 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
3361 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
3362 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
3363 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
3364 of the ClientHello
3365
3366 *Benjamin Kaduk*
3367
3368 * Add SM2 base algorithm support.
3369
3370 *Jack Lloyd*
3371
3372 * s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
3373 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
3374 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
3375
3376 *Patrick Steuer*
3377
3378 * Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
3379 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
3380 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
3381
3382 *Richard Levitte*
3383
3384 * Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
3385 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
3386 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
3387 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
3388 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
3389 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
3390 to work in projective coordinates.
3391
3392 *Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri*
3393
3394 * Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
3395 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
3396 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
3397 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
3398 to 2^-128.
3399
3400 *Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar*
3401
3402 * Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
3403
3404 *Kurt Roeckx*
3405
3406 * The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
3407 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
3408 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
3409 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
3410
3411 *Richard Levitte*
3412
3413 * Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
3414 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
3415
3416 *Andy Polyakov*
3417
3418 * Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
3419 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
3420 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
3421 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
3422
3423 *Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri*
3424
3425 * Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
3426 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
3427 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
3428 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
3429 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
3430
3431 *Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri*
3432
3433 * Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
3434 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
3435 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
3436 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
3437 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
3438
3439 *Paul Dale*
3440
3441 * Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
3442 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
3443 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
3444 authors.
3445
3446 *Matt Caswell*
3447
3448 * AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
3449 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
3450 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
3451 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
3452 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
3453 multi-version installation is managed.
3454
3455 *Andy Polyakov*
3456
3457 * Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
3458 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
3459 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
3460 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
3461 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
3462
3463 *Billy Bob Brumley*
3464
3465 * Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
3466 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
3467 chosen point SCA attacks.
3468
3469 *Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley*
3470
3471 * Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
3472 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
3473
3474 *Matt Caswell*
3475
3476 * Enforce checking in the `pkeyutl` command to ensure that the input
3477 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
3478 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
3479
3480 *Matt Caswell*
3481
3482 * SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
3483 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
3484 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
3485 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
3486 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
3487 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
3488 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
3489 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
3490 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
3491
3492 *Kurt Roeckx*
3493
3494 * When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
3495 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
3496
3497 *Richard Levitte*
3498
3499 * Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
3500 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
3501
3502 *Billy Bob Brumley*
3503
3504 * Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
3505 binary and prime elliptic curves.
3506
3507 *Billy Bob Brumley*
3508
3509 * Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
3510 constant time fixed point multiplication.
3511
3512 *Billy Bob Brumley*
3513
3514 * Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
3515 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
3516 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
3517 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
3518 ECDH derive operations).
3519 *Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
3520 Sohaib ul Hassan*
3521
3522 * Updated CONTRIBUTING
3523
3524 *Rich Salz*
3525
3526 * Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
3527 randomness from the system.
3528
3529 *Matthias St. Pierre*
3530
3531 * Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
3532
3533 *Richard Levitte*
3534
3535 * Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
3536 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
3537
3538 *Matt Caswell*
3539
3540 * Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
3541
3542 *Matt Caswell*
3543
3544 * Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
3545
3546 *Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz*
3547
3548 * Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
3549
3550 *Richard Levitte*
3551
3552 * Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
3553 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
3554 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
3555
3556 *Matt Caswell*
3557
3558 * Memory allocation failures consistently add an error to the error
3559 stack.
3560
3561 *Rich Salz*
3562
3563 * Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
3564 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
3565
3566 *Bernd Edlinger*
3567
3568 * Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
3569
3570 *Matt Caswell*
3571
3572 * Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
3573 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
3574
3575 *Matthias St. Pierre*
3576
3577 * QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
3578 for the license change).
3579
3580 *Rich Salz*
3581
3582 * TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
3583 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
3584
3585 *Matt Caswell*
3586
3587 * Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
3588 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
3589 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
3590 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
3591 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
3592 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
3593 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
3594
3595 *Matt Caswell*
3596
3597 * On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
3598 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
3599 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
3600 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
3601 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
3602 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
3603 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
3604 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
3605 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
3606 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
3607 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
3608 written to stderr.
3609
3610 *Viktor Dukhovni*
3611
3612 * Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
3613 Mike Hamburg.
3614
3615 *Matt Caswell*
3616
3617 * Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
3618 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
3619 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
3620 get the search data out of them.
3621
3622 *Richard Levitte*
3623
3624 * Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
3625 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
3626 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
3627 <https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3>
3628
3629 *Matt Caswell*
3630
3631 * Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
3632
3633 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
3634 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
3635 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
3636 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
3637 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
3638 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
3639
3640 Some of its new features are:
3641 - Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
3642 - The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
3643 - There is a public and private DRBG instance.
3644 - The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
3645 - Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
3646 - The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
3647 operation
3648
3649 *Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre*
3650
3651 * Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
3652 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
3653 to display all sorts of configuration data.
3654
3655 *Richard Levitte*
3656
3657 * Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
3658
3659 *Richard Levitte*
3660
3661 * Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
3662
3663 *Paul Dale*
3664
3665 * The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
3666 now been removed.
3667
3668 *Rich Salz*
3669
3670 * Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
3671 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
3672 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
3673 debug (or make silent).
3674
3675 *Richard Levitte*
3676
3677 * Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
3678 arguments to config / Configure.
3679
3680 *Richard Levitte*
3681
3682 * Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
3683
3684 *Paul Yang*
3685
3686 * Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
3687 *Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,*
3688 *Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,*
3689 *Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com>*
3690
3691 * Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
3692 as documented in RFC6066.
3693 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
3694
3695 *Filipe Raimundo da Silva*
3696
3697 * Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
3698 *Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,*
3699 *Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,*
3700 *Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com>*
3701
3702 * Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
3703 original author does not agree with the license change.
3704
3705 *Rich Salz*
3706
3707 * Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
3708
3709 *Jon Spillett*
3710
3711 * Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
3712 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
3713
3714 *Rich Salz*
3715
3716 * Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
3717 without clearing the errors.
3718
3719 *Richard Levitte*
3720
3721 * Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
3722 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
3723 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
3724
3725 *Rich Salz*
3726
3727 * Add SHA3.
3728
3729 *Andy Polyakov*
3730
3731 * The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
3732 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
3733 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
3734 as a fallback).
3735
3736 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
3737 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
3738 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
3739 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
3740
3741 *Richard Levitte*
3742
3743 * Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
3744 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
3745 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
3746 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
3747 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
3748 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
3749 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
3750
3751 *Richard Levitte*
3752
3753 * Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
3754 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
3755 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
3756 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
3757
3758 *Richard Levitte*
3759
3760 * Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
3761 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
3762 error code calls like this:
3763
3764 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
3765
3766 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
3767 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
3768 affect new modules.
3769
3770 *Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson*
3771
3772 * Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
3773
3774 *Rich Salz*
3775
3776 * Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
3777 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
3778 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
3779 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
3780
3781 *Richard Levitte*
3782
3783 * In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
3784 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
3785 than just the call where this user data is passed.
3786
3787 *Richard Levitte*
3788
3789 * Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
3790 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
3791
3792 *Tomáš Mráz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>*
3793
3794 * Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
3795 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
3796 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
3797 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
3798 prohibits this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
3799 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
3800 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause interoperability
3801 issues.
3802
3803 *Matt Caswell*
3804
3805 * Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
3806 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
3807 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
3808 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
3809
3810 *Richard Levitte*
3811
3812 * Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
3813 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
3814
3815 *Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov*
3816
3817 * Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
3818 does for RSA, etc.
3819
3820 *Richard Levitte*
3821
3822 * Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
3823 platform rather than 'mingw'.
3824
3825 *Richard Levitte*
3826
3827 * The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
3828 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
3829 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
3830 certificates and CRLs.
3831
3832 *Paul Dale*
3833
3834 * x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
3835 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
3836
3837 *Andy Polyakov*
3838
3839 * Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
3840 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
3841
3842 *Richard Levitte*
3843
3844 * Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
3845 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
3846 which is the minimum version we support.
3847
3848 *Richard Levitte*
3849
3850 * Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
3851 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
3852 are no longer allowed.
3853
3854 *Emilia Käsper*
3855
3856 * Add support for ARIA
3857
3858 *Paul Dale*
3859
3860 * s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
3861 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
3862 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
3863 using "-servername".
3864
3865 *Matt Caswell*
3866
3867 * Add support for SipHash
3868
3869 *Todd Short*
3870
3871 * OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
3872 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
3873 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
3874 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
3875
3876 *Matt Caswell*
3877
3878 * 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
3879 using the algorithm defined in
3880 <https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt>
3881
3882 *Richard Levitte*
3883
3884 * Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
3885
3886 *Richard Levitte, Rich Salz*
3887
3888 * Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
3889
3890 *Emilia Käsper*
3891
3892 * The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
3893 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.

3899
3900 ### Changes between 1.1.0k and 1.1.0l [10 Sep 2019]
3901
3902 * For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
3903 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a encoded key
3904 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
3905 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
3906 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
3907 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
3908 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
3909 encoded, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
3910 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
3911
3912 *Nicola Tuveri*
3913
3914 * Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
3915 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
3916 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
3917 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
3918 ([CVE-2019-1547])
3919
3920 *Billy Bob Brumley*
3921
3922 * Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
3923 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
3924 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
3925 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
3926 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
3927 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
3928 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
3929 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
3930 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
3931 certificate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
3932 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3933 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
3934 ([CVE-2019-1563])
3935
3936 *Bernd Edlinger*
3937
3938 * Use Windows installation paths in the mingw builds
3939
3940 Mingw isn't a POSIX environment per se, which means that Windows
3941 paths should be used for installation.
3942 ([CVE-2019-1552])
3943
3944 *Richard Levitte*
3945
3946 ### Changes between 1.1.0j and 1.1.0k [28 May 2019]
3947
3948 * Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
3949 This changes the size when using the `genpkey` command when no size is given.
3950 It fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
3951 generation commands to use 2048 bits by default.
3952
3953 *Kurt Roeckx*
3954
3955 * Prevent over long nonces in ChaCha20-Poly1305.
3956
3957 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is an AEAD cipher, and requires a unique nonce input
3958 for every encryption operation. RFC 7539 specifies that the nonce value
3959 (IV) should be 96 bits (12 bytes). OpenSSL allows a variable nonce length
3960 and front pads the nonce with 0 bytes if it is less than 12
3961 bytes. However it also incorrectly allows a nonce to be set of up to 16
3962 bytes. In this case only the last 12 bytes are significant and any
3963 additional leading bytes are ignored.
3964
3965 It is a requirement of using this cipher that nonce values are
3966 unique. Messages encrypted using a reused nonce value are susceptible to
3967 serious confidentiality and integrity attacks. If an application changes
3968 the default nonce length to be longer than 12 bytes and then makes a
3969 change to the leading bytes of the nonce expecting the new value to be a
3970 new unique nonce then such an application could inadvertently encrypt
3971 messages with a reused nonce.
3972
3973 Additionally the ignored bytes in a long nonce are not covered by the
3974 integrity guarantee of this cipher. Any application that relies on the
3975 integrity of these ignored leading bytes of a long nonce may be further
3976 affected. Any OpenSSL internal use of this cipher, including in SSL/TLS,
3977 is safe because no such use sets such a long nonce value. However user
3978 applications that use this cipher directly and set a non-default nonce
3979 length to be longer than 12 bytes may be vulnerable.
3980
3981 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th of March 2019 by Joran Dirk
3982 Greef of Ronomon.
3983 ([CVE-2019-1543])
3984
3985 *Matt Caswell*
3986
3987 * Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
3988 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
3989 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
3990 to affine coordinates.
3991
3992 *Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri*
3993
3994 * Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
3995 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
3996
3997 *Bernd Edlinger*
3998
3999 * Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
4000
4001 *Richard Levitte*
4002
4003 * Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
4004 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
4005 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
4006
4007 *Richard Levitte*
4008
4009 ### Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.0j [20 Nov 2018]
4010
4011 * Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
4012
4013 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
4014 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
4015 algorithm to recover the private key.
4016
4017 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
4018 ([CVE-2018-0734])
4019
4020 *Paul Dale*
4021
4022 * Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
4023
4024 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
4025 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
4026 algorithm to recover the private key.
4027
4028 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
4029 ([CVE-2018-0735])
4030
4031 *Paul Dale*
4032
4033 * Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
4034 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
4035 chosen point SCA attacks.
4036
4037 *Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley*
4038
4039 ### Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [14 Aug 2018]
4040
4041 * Client DoS due to large DH parameter
4042
4043 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
4044 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
4045 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
4046 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
4047 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
4048
4049 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
4050 ([CVE-2018-0732])
4051
4052 *Guido Vranken*
4053
4054 * Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
4055
4056 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
4057 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
4058 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
4059 recover the private key.
4060
4061 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
4062 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
4063 ([CVE-2018-0737])
4064
4065 *Billy Brumley*
4066
4067 * Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
4068 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
4069 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
4070
4071 *Richard Levitte*
4072
4073 * Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
4074 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
4075
4076 *Andy Polyakov*
4077
4078 * Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
4079 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
4080 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
4081 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
4082 to 2^-128.
4083
4084 *Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar*
4085
4086 * Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
4087
4088 *Kurt Roeckx*
4089
4090 * Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
4091 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
4092
4093 *Matt Caswell*
4094
4095 * When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
4096 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
4097
4098 *Richard Levitte*
4099
4100 * Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
4101 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
4102 are no longer allowed.
4103
4104 *Emilia Käsper*
4105
4106 * Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
4107
4108 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
4109 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
4110 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
4111 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
4112 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
4113 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
4114 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
4115 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
4116 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
4117 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
4118 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
4119 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
4120 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).
4121
4122 *Matt Caswell*
4123
4124 ### Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
4125
4126 * Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
4127
4128 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
4129 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
4130 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
4131 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
4132 so this is considered safe.
4133
4134 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
4135 project.
4136 ([CVE-2018-0739])
4137
4138 *Matt Caswell*
4139
4140 * Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
4141
4142 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
4143 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
4144 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
4145 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
4146 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
4147 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
4148
4149 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
4150 (IBM).
4151 ([CVE-2018-0733])
4152
4153 *Andy Polyakov*
4154
4155 * Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
4156 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
4157 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
4158 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
4159
4160 *Richard Levitte*
4161
4162 * Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
4163
4164 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
4165 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
4166 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore, the new
4167 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
4168 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
4169
4170 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
4171 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
4172 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
4173
4174 *Matt Caswell*
4175
4176 * Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
4177 exist.
4178
4179 *Rich Salz*
4180
4181 * rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
4182
4183 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
4184 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
4185 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
4186 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
4187 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
4188 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
4189 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
4190 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
4191 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
4192 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
4193
4194 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
4195 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).

4197 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
4198 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.

4202
4203 ### Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
4204
4205 * bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
4206
4207 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
4208 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
4209 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
4210 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
4211 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
4212 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
4213 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
4214 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
4215 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
4216 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
4217 key that is shared between multiple clients.
4218
4219 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
4220 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
4221
4222 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
4223 ([CVE-2017-3736])
4224
4225 *Andy Polyakov*
4226
4227 * Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
4228
4229 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
4230 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
4231 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
4232
4233 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
4234 ([CVE-2017-3735])
4235
4236 *Rich Salz*
4237
4238 ### Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
4239
4240 * Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
4241 platform rather than 'mingw'.
4242
4243 *Richard Levitte*
4244
4245 * Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
4246 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
4247 which is the minimum version we support.
4248
4249 *Richard Levitte*
4250
4251 ### Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
4252
4253 * Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
4254
4255 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
4256 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
4257 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependent on ciphersuite). Both clients
4258 and servers are affected.
4259
4260 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
4261 ([CVE-2017-3733])

4264
4265 ### Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
4266
4267 * Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
4268
4269 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
4270 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
4271 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
4272
4273 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
4274 ([CVE-2017-3731])
4275
4276 *Andy Polyakov*
4277
4278 * Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
4279
4280 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
4281 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
4282 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
4283 of Service attack.
4284
4285 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
4286 ([CVE-2017-3730])
4287
4288 *Matt Caswell*
4289
4290 * BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
4291
4292 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
4293 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
4294 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
4295 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
4296 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
4297 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
4298 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
4299 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
4300 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
4301 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
4302 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
4303 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
4304 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
4305
4306 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
4307 ([CVE-2017-3732])
4308
4309 *Andy Polyakov*
4310
4311 ### Changes between 1.1.0b and 1.1.0c [10 Nov 2016]
4312
4313 * ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
4314
4315 TLS connections using `*-CHACHA20-POLY1305` ciphersuites are susceptible to
4316 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
4317 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.
4318
4319 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki (Google Security Team)
4320 ([CVE-2016-7054])
4321
4322 *Richard Levitte*
4323
4324 * CMS Null dereference
4325
4326 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
4327 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
4328 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
4329 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
4330 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
4331 affected.
4332
4333 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
4334 ([CVE-2016-7053])
4335
4336 *Stephen Henson*
4337
4338 * Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
4339
4340 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
4341 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
4342 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
4343 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
4344 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
4345 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
4346 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
4347 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
4348 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
4349 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
4350 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
4351 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
4352 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
4353 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
4354
4355 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
4356 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
4357 providing reproducible case.
4358 ([CVE-2016-7055])
4359
4360 *Andy Polyakov*
4361
4362 * Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
4363 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
4364
4365 *Richard Levitte*
4366
4367 ### Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
4368
4369 * Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
4370
4371 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
4372 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
4373 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
4374 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
4375 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
4376 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
4377
4378 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
4379
4380 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.

4383 *Matt Caswell*
4384
4385 ### Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
4386
4387 * OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
4388
4389 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
4390 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
4391 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
4392 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
4393 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
4394 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
4395 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
4396
4397 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
4398 ([CVE-2016-6304])
4399
4400 *Matt Caswell*
4401
4402 * SSL_peek() hang on empty record
4403
4404 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
4405 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
4406 Denial Of Service attack.
4407
4408 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
4409 ([CVE-2016-6305])
4410
4411 *Matt Caswell*
4412
4413 * Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
4414 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
4415
4416 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
4417 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
4418 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
4419 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
4420 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
4421 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
4422 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
4423 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
4424 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
4425 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
4426 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
4427 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
4428 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
4429 again. Therefore, the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
4430 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
4431
4432 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
4433 that the connection fails
4434 or
4435 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
4436 very little free memory
4437 or
4438 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
4439 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
4440 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
4441 memory to service the multiple requests.
4442
4443 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
4444 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
4445 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
4446 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
4447 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
4448
4449 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
4450 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
4451
4452 *Matt Caswell*
4453
4454 * solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
4455 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
4456 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
4457 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
4458 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
4459 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
4460 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
4461
4462 *Andy Polyakov*
4463
4464 ### Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
4465
4466 * Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
4467 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
4468 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
4469 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
4470 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
4471 non-ASCII password.
4472
4473 *Andy Polyakov*
4474
4475 * To mitigate the SWEET32 attack ([CVE-2016-2183]), 3DES cipher suites
4476 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
4477 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
4478
4479 *Rich Salz*
4480
4481 * The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
4482 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
4483 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
4484 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
4485
4486 *Matt Caswell*
4487
4488 * The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
4489 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
4490 success.
4491
4492 *Matt Caswell*
4493
4494 * The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
4495 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
4496 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
4497 no-ops and deprecated.
4498
4499 *Matt Caswell*
4500
4501 * Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
4502 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
4503 were also closed.
4504
4505 *Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz*
4506
4507 * The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with `OPENSSL_SK_`
4508 and `OPENSSL_LH_`, respectively. The old names are available
4509 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
4510
4511 *Rich Salz*
4512
4513 * Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
4514 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
4515 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
4516 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
4517 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
4518 and the validity of object reference counter.
4519
4520 *fdasilvayy@gmail.com*
4521
4522 * With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
4523 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
4524 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
4525 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
4526
4527 *Richard Levitte*
4528
4529 * Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
4530
4531 *Richard Levitte*
4532
4533 * Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
4534 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
4535 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
4536 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
4537
4538 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
4539
4540 *Richard Levitte*
4541
4542 * Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
4543 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
4544
4545 *Steve Henson*
4546
4547 * Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
4548
4549 *Andy Polyakov*
4550
4551 * Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
4552
4553 *Rich Salz*
4554
4555 * To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
4556 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
4557 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
4558 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
4559 name and is used as is.
4560
4561 *Richard Levitte*
4562
4563 * The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
4564 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
4565 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
4566
4567 *Rich Salz*
4568
4569 * "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
4570 the "no-shared" Configure option.
4571
4572 *Matt Caswell*
4573
4574 * Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
4575 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
4576 algorithms.
4577
4578 *Matt Caswell*
4579
4580 * Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
4581 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
4582 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
4583 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
4584 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
4585 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
4586 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
4587 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
4588 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
4589
4590 *Matt Caswell*
4591
4592 * --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
4593 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
4594 enabled with '--debug' builds.
4595
4596 *Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper*
4597
4598 * Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
4599 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
4600 these have been added.
4601
4602 *Matt Caswell*
4603
4604 * Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
4605 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
4606 functions for managing these have been added.
4607
4608 *Richard Levitte*
4609
4610 * Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
4611 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
4612 these have been added.
4613
4614 *Matt Caswell*
4615
4616 * Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
4617 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
4618 have been added.
4619
4620 *Matt Caswell*
4621
4622 * Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
4623
4624 *Matt Caswell*
4625
4626 * Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
4627
4628 *Richard Levitte*
4629
4630 * Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
4631 it is always safe to #include a header now.
4632
4633 *Rich Salz*
4634
4635 * Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
4636
4637 *Richard Levitte*
4638
4639 * Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
4640
4641 *Rich Salz*
4642
4643 * Add support for HKDF.
4644
4645 *Alessandro Ghedini*
4646
4647 * Add support for blake2b and blake2s
4648
4649 *Bill Cox*
4650
4651 * Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
4652 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
4653 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
4654 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
4655 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
4656 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
4657 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
4658
4659 *Matt Caswell*
4660
4661 * Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
4662 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
4663 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
4664
4665 *Catriona Lucey*
4666
4667 * OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
4668 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
4669 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
4670 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
4671 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
4672 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
4673
4674 *Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell*
4675
4676 * Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
4677 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
4678
4679 *Todd Short*
4680
4681 * Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
4682
4683 *Todd Short*
4684
4685 * Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
4686 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
4687 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
4688 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
4689 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
4690 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
4691 default cipherlist.
4692
4693 *Emilia Käsper*
4694
4695 * Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
4696 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
4697
4698 *Rich Salz*
4699
4700 * RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
4701 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
4702 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
4703
4704 *Matt Caswell*
4705
4706 * If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
4707 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
4708 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
4709 implemented by other servers.
4710
4711 *Emilia Käsper*
4712
4713 * Add X25519 support.
4714 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
4715 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
4716 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
4717 key generation and key derivation.
4718
4719 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
4720 X25519(29).
4721
4722 *Steve Henson*
4723
4724 * Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
4725 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
4726 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak ([CVE-2016-0798]),
4727 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
4728 seed, even if the seed is configured.
4729
4730 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
4731 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
4732 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
4733 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
4734 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
4735 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
4736 that of a valid user.
4737
4738 *Emilia Käsper*
4739
4740 * Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
4741 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
4742 only applies to the engines in `engines/`, those in `crypto/engine/`
4743 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
4744
4745 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
4746 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
4747
4748 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
4749 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
4750 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
4751 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
4752
4753 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
4754 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
4755 irrelevant.
4756
4757 *Richard Levitte*
4758
4759 * Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
4760 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
4761 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
4762 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
4763 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
4764 of how OpenSSL was configured.
4765
4766 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
4767 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
4768 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
4769
4770 *Richard Levitte*
4771
4772 * Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
4773
4774 *Rich Salz*
4775
4776 * The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
4777 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
4778 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
4779 removed.
4780
4781 *Richard Levitte*
4782
4783 * Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
4784 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
4785 old #define's might need to be updated.
4786
4787 *Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz*
4788
4789 * Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
4790
4791 *Rich Salz*
4792
4793 * New "unified" build system
4794
4795 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
4796 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
4797
4798 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
4799 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
4800 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
4801
4802 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
4803 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
4804 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
4805 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
4806 descrip.mms.tmpl.
4807
4808 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
4809 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
4810 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
4811 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
4812 libraries" in INSTALL.
4813
4814 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
4815
4816 *Richard Levitte*
4817
4818 * Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
4819 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
4820 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
4821 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
4822
4823 *Matt Caswell*
4824
4825 * The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
4826 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
4827
4828 * Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
4829 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
4830 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
4831 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
4832 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
4833 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
4834 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
4835 have been adapted accordingly.
4836
4837 *Richard Levitte*
4838
4839 * RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
4840 the leading 0-byte.
4841
4842 *Emilia Käsper*
4843
4844 * CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
4845 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
4846 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
4847 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
4848
4849 *Emilia Käsper*
4850
4851 * The signature of the session callback configured with
4852 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
4853 was explicitly marked as `const unsigned char*` instead of
4854 `unsigned char*`.
4855
4856 *Emilia Käsper*
4857
4858 * Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
4859 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
4860
4861 *Emilia Käsper*
4862
4863 * Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
4864 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
4865 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
4866 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
4867 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
4868 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
4869
4870 *Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov*
4871
4872 * Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
4873
4874 *Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov*
4875
4876 * Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
4877 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
4878 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
4879 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
4880 Text::Template.
4881
4882 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
4883 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
4884 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
4885 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
4886 configuration in one of the `Configurations/*.conf` files (in
4887 %target).
4888
4889 *Richard Levitte*
4890
4891 * To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
4892 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
4893 straightforward and less interdependent.
4894
4895 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
4896 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
4897 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
4898
4899 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
4900 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
4901 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
4902 installed.
4903 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
4904 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
4905 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
4906 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
4907
4908 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
4909 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
4910
4911 *Richard Levitte*
4912
4913 * The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
4914 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
4915 See: <https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries>. Libssl still retains
4916 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
4917 is present).
4918
4919 *Matt Caswell*
4920
4921 * EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
4922 configuring.
4923
4924 *Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz*
4925
4926 * The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
4927 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
4928 before trying to build now.*
4929
4930 *Rich Salz*
4931
4932 * The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
4933 has changed.
4934
4935 *Rich Salz*
4936
4937 * Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
4938
4939 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
4940 the application's responsibility. The application provides
4941 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
4942 used to authenticate the peer.
4943
4944 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
4945 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
4946 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
4947 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
4948 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
4949
4950 *Viktor Dukhovni*
4951
4952 * Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
4953 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
4954 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
4955 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
4956 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
4957 or the 1.1.0 releases.
4958
4959 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
4960 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
4961 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
4962 support for the deprecated features from the library and
4963 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
4964 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
4965 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
4966 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
4967 version.
4968
4969 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
4970 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
4971 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
4972 compile with later releases.
4973
4974 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
4975 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
4976 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
4977 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
4978 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
4979
4980 *Viktor Dukhovni*
4981
4982 * Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
4983 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
4984 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
4985 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
4986 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
4987 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
4988 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
4989 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
4990
4991 *Kurt Roeckx*
4992
4993 * Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
4994
4995 *Andy Polyakov*
4996
4997 * New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
4998 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
4999 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
5000 ECDSA_SIG format.
5001
5002 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
5003 include the ec.h header file instead.
5004
5005 *Steve Henson*
5006
5007 * Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
5008 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
5009 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
5010
5011 *Kurt Roeckx*
5012
5013 * Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
5014 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
5015 were added:
5016
5017 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
5018 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
5019
5020 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
5021 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
5022 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
5023
5024 Additional changes:
5025 1) `EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup()`, `EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup()` and
5026 `HMAC_CTX_cleanup()` were removed. `HMAC_CTX_reset()` and
5027 `EVP_MD_CTX_reset()` should be called instead to reinitialise
5028 an already created structure.
5029 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
5030 destructors, `EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy)` were renamed to
5031 `EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free)`. The old names are retained as macros
5032 for deprecated builds.
5033
5034 *Richard Levitte*
5035
5036 * Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
5037 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
5038 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
5039 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
5040 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
5041 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
5042 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
5043
5044 *Matt Caswell*
5045
5046 * SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
5047 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
5048 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
5049 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
5050
5051 *Kurt Roeckx*
5052
5053 * SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
5054 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
5055
5056 *Kurt Roeckx*
5057
5058 * Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
5059 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
5060
5061 *Kurt Roeckx*
5062
5063 * State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
5064 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
5065 with the old code (see [ssl/statem/README.md](ssl/statem/README.md) for
5066 further details). This change does have some associated API changes.
5067 Notably the SSL_state() function has been removed and replaced by
5068 SSL_get_state which now returns an "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int.
5069 SSL_set_state() has been removed altogether. The previous handshake states
5070 defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have also been removed.
5071
5072 *Matt Caswell*
5073
5074 * All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
5075 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
5076 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
5077
5078 *Rich Salz*
5079
5080 * The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
5081
5082 *Rich Salz*
5083
5084 * Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
5085 sureware and ubsec.
5086
5087 *Matt Caswell, Rich Salz*
5088
5089 * New ASN.1 embed macro.
5090
5091 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
5092 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
5093
5094 FOO *x;
5095
5096 it must be:
5097
5098 FOO x;
5099
5100 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
5101 set a mandatory field to NULL.
5102
5103 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
5104 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
5105 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
5106 SEQUENCE OF.
5107
5108 *Steve Henson*
5109
5110 * Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
5111
5112 *Emilia Käsper*
5113
5114 * Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
5115 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
5116 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
5117 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
5118
5119 *Matt Caswell*
5120
5121 * Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
5122 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
5123 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
5124 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
5125
5126 *Emilia Käsper*
5127
5128 * Fix no-stdio build.
5129 *David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also*
5130 *Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com>*
5131
5132 * New testing framework
5133 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
5134 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
5135 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
5136 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
5137 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
5138 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
5139
5140 For documentation on our testing modules, do:

5143 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
5144
5145 *Richard Levitte*
5146
5147 * Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
5148 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
5149 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
5150 and others were changed. All are now documented.
5151
5152 *Rich Salz*
5153
5154 * In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
5155 return an error
5156
5157 *Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>*
5158
5159 * Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
5160 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
5161
5162 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
5163 original RSA_PSK patch.
5164
5165 *Steve Henson*
5166
5167 * Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
5168 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
5169 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
5170 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
5171
5172 *Matt Caswell*
5173
5174 * Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
5175 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
5176
5177 *Richard Levitte*
5178
5179 * Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
5180 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
5181 hasn't been working properly for a while.
5182
5183 *Emilia Käsper*
5184
5185 * The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
5186 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
5187 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
5188 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
5189 transferred.
5190
5191 *Matt Caswell*
5192
5193 * Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
5194 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
5195 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
5196 not well tested). Therefore, the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
5197
5198 *Matt Caswell*
5199
5200 * Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
5201 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
5202 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
5203 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
5204 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
5205 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
5206
5207 *Matt Caswell*
5208
5209 * Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
5210 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
5211 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
5212 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
5213 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
5214 header file has been removed.
5215
5216 *Matt Caswell*
5217
5218 * Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
5219 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
5220
5221 *Matt Caswell*
5222
5223 * RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
5224 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
5225 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
5226
5227 * Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
5228 Added a test.
5229
5230 *Rich Salz*
5231
5232 * Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
5233
5234 *Rich Salz*
5235
5236 * Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
5237 sha256
5238
5239 *Rich Salz*
5240
5241 * RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
5242
5243 *Matt Caswell*
5244
5245 * Added support for TLS extended master secret from
5246 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
5247 initial patch which was a great help during development.
5248
5249 *Steve Henson*
5250
5251 * All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
5252 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
5253 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
5254 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
5255
5256 *Matt Caswell*
5257
5258 * config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
5259 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
5260 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
5261 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
5262 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
5263 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
5264
5265 *Matt Caswell*
5266
5267 * Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
5268 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
5269 at <https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf>. Support
5270 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
5271
5272 *Matt Caswell*
5273
5274 * SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving an SSLv2
5275 compatible client hello.
5276
5277 *Kurt Roeckx*
5278
5279 * Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
5280 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
5281
5282 *Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>*
5283
5284 * CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
5285
5286 *Rich Salz*
5287
5288 * Removed old DES API.
5289
5290 *Rich Salz*
5291
5292 * Remove various unsupported platforms:
5293 Sony NEWS4
5294 BEOS and BEOS_R5
5295 NeXT
5296 SUNOS
5297 MPE/iX
5298 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
5299 DGUX
5300 NCR
5301 Tandem
5302 Cray
5303 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
5304
5305 *Rich Salz*
5306
5307 * Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
5308 - Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
5309 - Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
5310 - OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
5311 - OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
5312 - OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
5313 - Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
5314 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
5315 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
5316 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
5317 - Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
5318
5319 *Rich Salz*
5320
5321 * Cleaned up dead code
5322 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
5323
5324 *Rich Salz*
5325
5326 * Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
5327 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
5328 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
5329
5330 *Rich Salz*
5331
5332 * Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
5333 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
5334 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
5335
5336 *Rich Salz*
5337
5338 * Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
5339 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
5340
5341 *Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>*
5342
5343 * New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
5344 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
5345
5346 *Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>*
5347
5348 * Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
5349 compilation flags.
5350
5351 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
5352
5353 * Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
5354 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
5355
5356 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
5357
5358 * Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
5359
5360 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
5361
5362 * A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
5363 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
5364 server.
5365
5366 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
5367 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
5368 preparing the fix ([CVE-2014-0160])
5369
5370 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller*
5371
5372 * Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
5373 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
5374 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
5375 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140>
5376
5377 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
5378 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix ([CVE-2014-0076])
5379
5380 *Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger*
5381
5382 * Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
5383 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
5384
5385 *Steve Henson*
5386
5387 * Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
5388
5389 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
5390 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
5391
5392 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
5393 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
5394
5395 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
5396 effect.
5397
5398 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
5399
5400 *Steve Henson*
5401
5402 * Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
5403 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
5404 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
5405 algorithms and include tests cases.
5406
5407 *Steve Henson*
5408
5409 * Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
5410 enveloped data.
5411
5412 *Steve Henson*
5413
5414 * Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
5415 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
5416
5417 *Steve Henson*
5418
5419 * Make openssl verify return errors.
5420
5421 *Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie*
5422
5423 * New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
5424 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
5425
5426 *Steve Henson*
5427
5428 * Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
5429 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
5430 failures.
5431
5432 *Steve Henson*
5433
5434 * Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
5435 sign or verify all in one operation.
5436
5437 *Steve Henson*
5438
5439 * Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
5440 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
5441 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
5442
5443 *Steve Henson*
5444
5445 * Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
5446
5447 *Steve Henson*
5448
5449 * Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
5450
5451 *Steve Henson*
5452
5453 * Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
5454 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
5455 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
5456 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
5457 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
5458
5459 *Steve Henson*
5460
5461 * New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
5462 based on NID.
5463
5464 *Steve Henson*
5465
5466 * More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
5467 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
5468 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
5469
5470 *Steve Henson*
5471
5472 * Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
5473 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
5474
5475 * Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
5476 POST to handle HMAC cases.
5477
5478 *Steve Henson*
5479
5480 * Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
5481 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
5482
5483 *Steve Henson*
5484
5485 * Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
5486 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
5487 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
5488
5489 *Steve Henson*
5490
5491 * Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
5492 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
5493 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
5494 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
5495 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
5496 requested amount of entropy.
5497
5498 *Steve Henson*
5499
5500 * Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
5501 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
5502
5503 *Steve Henson*
5504
5505 * CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
5506 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
5507 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
5508 support.
5509
5510 *Steve Henson*
5511
5512 * Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
5513 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
5514 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
5515
5516 *Steve Henson*
5517
5518 * XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
5519 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
5520 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
5521 will never use XTS mode.
5522
5523 *Steve Henson*
5524
5525 * Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
5526 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
5527 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
5528 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
5529 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
5530 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
5531
5532 *Steve Henson*
5533
5534 * Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form `FIPS_rand*` to `FIPS_x931*`.
5535 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
5536 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
5537 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
5538
5539 *Steve Henson*
5540
5541 * Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
5542 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
5543 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
5544
5545 *Steve Henson*
5546
5547 * Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
5548
5549 *Steve Henson*
5550
5551 * New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
5552
5553 *Steve Henson*
5554
5555 * New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
5556 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
5557
5558 *Steve Henson*
5559
5560 * Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
5561 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
5562
5563 *Steve Henson*
5564
5565 * Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
5566 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
5567
5568 *Steve Henson*
5569
5570 * Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
5571 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
5572 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
5573 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
5574 and rename any affected symbols.
5575
5576 *Steve Henson*
5577
5578 * Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
5579 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
5580
5581 *Steve Henson*
5582
5583 * Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
5584 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
5585 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
5586
5587 *Steve Henson*
5588
5589 * New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
5590
5591 *Steve Henson*
5592
5593 * New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
5594 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
5595 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
5596
5597 *Steve Henson*
5598
5599 * Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
5600 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
5601
5602 *Steve Henson*
5603
5604 * Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
5605 setting output buffer to NULL. The `*Final` function must be
5606 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
5607 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
5608 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
5609 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
5610 set before the key.
5611
5612 *Steve Henson*
5613
5614 * New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
5615 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
5616 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
5617 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
5618 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
5619 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
5620 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
5621 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
5622
5623 *Steve Henson*
5624
5625 * If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
5626 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
5627
5628 *Steve Henson*
5629
5630 * Improve forward-security support: add functions
5631
5632 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(
5633 SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
5634 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(
5635 SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
5636
5637 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
5638 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
5639 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
5640 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
5641 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
5642 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
5643
5644 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
5645 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
5646 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
5647 security.
5648
5649 *Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)*
5650
5651 * New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
5652 parameters by name.
5653
5654 *Steve Henson*
5655
5656 * Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
5657 Add CMAC pkey methods.
5658
5659 *Steve Henson*
5660
5661 * Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
5662 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
5663 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
5664
5665 *Steve Henson*
5666
5667 * Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
5668 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
5669 multi-process servers.
5670
5671 *Steve Henson*
5672
5673 * Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
5674 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
5675 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
5676 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
5677 RAND_METHOD structure.
5678
5679 *Steve Henson*
5680
5681 * New macro `__owur` for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
5682 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
5683 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
5684 whose return value is often ignored.
5685
5686 *Steve Henson*
5687
5688 * New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
5689 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
5690 validated when establishing a connection.
5691
5692 *Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>*
5693
5694 OpenSSL 1.0.2
5695 -------------
5696
5697 ### Changes between 1.0.2s and 1.0.2t [10 Sep 2019]
5698
5699 * For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
5700 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a encoded key
5701 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
5702 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
5703 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
5704 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
5705 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
5706 encoded, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
5707 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
5708
5709 *Nicola Tuveri*
5710
5711 * Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
5712 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
5713 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
5714 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
5715 ([CVE-2019-1547])
5716
5717 *Billy Bob Brumley*
5718
5719 * Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
5720 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
5721 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
5722 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
5723 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
5724 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
5725 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
5726 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
5727 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
5728 certificate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
5729 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
5730 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
5731 ([CVE-2019-1563])
5732
5733 *Bernd Edlinger*
5734
5735 * Document issue with installation paths in diverse Windows builds
5736
5737 '/usr/local/ssl' is an unsafe prefix for location to install OpenSSL
5738 binaries and run-time config file.
5739 ([CVE-2019-1552])
5740
5741 *Richard Levitte*
5742
5743 ### Changes between 1.0.2r and 1.0.2s [28 May 2019]
5744
5745 * Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
5746 This changes the size when using the `genpkey` command when no size is given.
5747 It fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
5748 generation commands to use 2048 bits by default.

5752 * Add FIPS support for Android Arm 64-bit
5753
5754 Support for Android Arm 64-bit was added to the OpenSSL FIPS Object
5755 Module in Version 2.0.10. For some reason, the corresponding target
5756 'android64-aarch64' was missing OpenSSL 1.0.2, whence it could not be
5757 built with FIPS support on Android Arm 64-bit. This omission has been
5758 fixed.

5762 ### Changes between 1.0.2q and 1.0.2r [26 Feb 2019]
5763
5764 * 0-byte record padding oracle
5765
5766 If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls
5767 SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive one)
5768 then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte
5769 record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is
5770 received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently
5771 based on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this
5772 amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data.
5773
5774 In order for this to be exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in
5775 use. Stitched ciphersuites are optimised implementations of certain
5776 commonly used ciphersuites. Also the application must call SSL_shutdown()
5777 twice even if a protocol error has occurred (applications should not do
5778 this but some do anyway).
5779
5780 This issue was discovered by Juraj Somorovsky, Robert Merget and Nimrod
5781 Aviram, with additional investigation by Steven Collison and Andrew

5793 * Microarchitecture timing vulnerability in ECC scalar multiplication
5794
5795 OpenSSL ECC scalar multiplication, used in e.g. ECDSA and ECDH, has been
5796 shown to be vulnerable to a microarchitecture timing side channel attack.
5797 An attacker with sufficient access to mount local timing attacks during
5798 ECDSA signature generation could recover the private key.

5825
5826 * Client DoS due to large DH parameter
5827
5828 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
5829 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
5830 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
5831 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
5832 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.

5861 *Andy Polyakov*
5862
5863 * Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
5864 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
5865 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
5866 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
5867 to 2^-128.

5892
5893 * Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
5894
5895 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
5896 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
5897 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
5898 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
5899 so this is considered safe.

5907 ### Changes between 1.0.2m and 1.0.2n [7 Dec 2017]
5908
5909 * Read/write after SSL object in error state
5910
5911 OpenSSL 1.0.2 (starting from version 1.0.2b) introduced an "error state"
5912 mechanism. The intent was that if a fatal error occurred during a handshake
5913 then OpenSSL would move into the error state and would immediately fail if
5914 you attempted to continue the handshake. This works as designed for the
5915 explicit handshake functions (SSL_do_handshake(), SSL_accept() and
5916 SSL_connect()), however due to a bug it does not work correctly if
5917 SSL_read() or SSL_write() is called directly. In that scenario, if the
5918 handshake fails then a fatal error will be returned in the initial function
5919 call. If SSL_read()/SSL_write() is subsequently called by the application
5920 for the same SSL object then it will succeed and the data is passed without
5921 being decrypted/encrypted directly from the SSL/TLS record layer.
5922
5923 In order to exploit this issue an application bug would have to be present
5924 that resulted in a call to SSL_read()/SSL_write() being issued after having
5925 already received a fatal error.
5926
5927 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google).

5929
5930 *Matt Caswell*
5931
5932 * rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
5933
5934 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
5935 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
5936 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
5937 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
5938 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
5939 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
5940 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
5941 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
5942 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
5943 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
5944
5945 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
5946 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
5947
5948 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
5949 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.

5955
5956 * bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
5957
5958 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
5959 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
5960 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
5961 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
5962 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
5963 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
5964 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
5965 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
5966 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
5967 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
5968 key that is shared between multiple clients.
5969
5970 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
5971 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.

5979
5980 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
5981 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
5982 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.

5998
5999 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
6000 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
6001 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.

6008 * BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
6009
6010 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
6011 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
6012 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
6013 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just

6018 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
6019 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
6020 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
6021 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
6022 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.

6026
6027 *Andy Polyakov*
6028
6029 * Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
6030
6031 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
6032 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
6033 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
6034 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
6035 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
6036 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
6037 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
6038 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
6039 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
6040 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
6041 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
6042 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
6043 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
6044 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
6045
6046 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
6047 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
6048 providing reproducible case.

6074
6075 * OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
6076
6077 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
6078 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
6079 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
6080 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
6081 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
6082 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
6083 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.

6099 * OOB write in MDC2_Update()
6100
6101 An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or
6102 through the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker
6103 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous
6104 call to EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check
6105 can overflow resulting in a heap corruption.
6106
6107 The amount of data needed is comparable to SIZE_MAX which is impractical
6108 on most platforms.

6115 * Malformed SHA512 ticket DoS
6116
6117 If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
6118 DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
6119 ultimately crash.
6120
6121 The use of SHA512 in TLS session tickets is comparatively rare as it requires
6122 a custom server callback and ticket lookup mechanism.

6128
6129 * OOB write in BN_bn2dec()
6130
6131 The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
6132 This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
6133 overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
6134 or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
6135 record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.

6141
6142 * OOB read in TS_OBJ_print_bio()
6143
6144 The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
6145 the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
6146 of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are
6147 presented.

6153
6154 * Pointer arithmetic undefined behaviour
6155
6156 Avoid some undefined pointer arithmetic
6157
6158 A common idiom in the codebase is to check limits in the following manner:
6159 "p + len > limit"
6160
6161 Where "p" points to some malloc'd data of SIZE bytes and
6162 limit == p + SIZE
6163
6164 "len" here could be from some externally supplied data (e.g. from a TLS
6165 message).
6166
6167 The rules of C pointer arithmetic are such that "p + len" is only well
6168 defined where len <= SIZE. Therefore the above idiom is actually
6169 undefined behaviour.
6170
6171 For example this could cause problems if some malloc implementation
6172 provides an address for "p" such that "p + len" actually overflows for
6173 values of len that are too big and therefore p + len < limit.

6179
6180 * Constant time flag not preserved in DSA signing
6181
6182 Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in
6183 order to avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA
6184 implementation means that a non-constant time codepath is followed for
6185 certain operations. This has been demonstrated through a cache-timing
6186 attack to be sufficient for an attacker to recover the private DSA key.

6195 * DTLS buffered message DoS
6196
6197 In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order
6198 those messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered
6199 for later use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that
6200 those messages do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake
6201 has been completed. An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to
6202 remain in the buffer when they are no longer required. These messages will
6203 be cleared when the DTLS connection is closed. The default maximum size for
6204 a message is 100k. Therefore, the attacker could force an additional 1500k
6205 to be consumed per connection. By opening many simultaneous connections an
6206 attacker could cause a DoS attack through memory exhaustion.

6210
6211 *Matt Caswell*
6212
6213 * DTLS replay protection DoS
6214
6215 A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records
6216 that arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before
6217 the MAC for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an
6218 attacker by sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to
6219 decrypt or have a valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means
6220 that all subsequent legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of
6221 service for a specific DTLS connection.

6226 *Matt Caswell*
6227
6228 * Certificate message OOB reads
6229
6230 In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result
6231 in OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a
6232 theoretical DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common
6233 platforms.
6234
6235 The messages affected are client certificate, client certificate request
6236 and server certificate. As a result the attack can only be performed
6237 against a client or a server which enables client authentication.

6249 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
6250 AES-NI.
6251
6252 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
6253 attack ([CVE-2013-0169]). The padding check was rewritten to be in
6254 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
6255 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
6256 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
6257 bytes.

6263 * Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
6264
6265 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
6266 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
6267 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
6268 corruption.
6269
6270 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
6271 the `PEM_write_bio*` family of functions. These are mainly used within the
6272 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
6273 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
6274 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
6275 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
6276
6277 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.

6280 *Matt Caswell*
6281
6282 * Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
6283
6284 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
6285 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
6286 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
6287 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
6288 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
6289 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
6290 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
6291 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
6292 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
6293 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
6294 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
6295 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
6296 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
6297 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
6298 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
6299 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.

6305
6306 * Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
6307
6308 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
6309 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
6310 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
6311
6312 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
6313 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
6314 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
6315 applications are not affected.

6322 * EBCDIC overread
6323
6324 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
6325 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
6326 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.

6347
6348 ### Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
6349
6350 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
6351 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
6352 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
6353
6354 *Viktor Dukhovni*
6355
6356 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
6357 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
6358 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
6359 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
6360 will need to explicitly call either of:
6361
6362 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
6363 or
6364 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
6365
6366 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
6367 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
6368 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
6369 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
6370 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.

6374
6375 * Fix a double-free in DSA code
6376
6377 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
6378 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
6379 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
6380 considered rare.
6381
6382 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
6383 libFuzzer.
6384 ([CVE-2016-0705])
6385
6386 *Stephen Henson*
6387
6388 * Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
6389
6390 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
6391
6392 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
6393 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
6394 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
6395 is configured.
6396
6397 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
6398 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
6399 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
6400 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
6401 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
6402 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
6403 that of a valid user.
6404 ([CVE-2016-0798])
6405
6406 *Emilia Käsper*
6407
6408 * Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
6409
6410 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
6411 int value `i`. Later `bn_expand` is called with a value of `i * 4`. For
6412 large values of `i` this can result in `bn_expand` not allocating any
6413 memory because `i * 4` is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
6414 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
6415 of `i`, the calculation `i * 4` could be a positive value smaller than `i`.
6416 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
6417 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
6418 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
6419 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
6420 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
6421
6422 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
6423 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
6424 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
6425 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
6426 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
6427
6428 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
6429 ([CVE-2016-0797])
6430
6431 *Matt Caswell*
6432
6433 * Fix memory issues in `BIO_*printf` functions
6434
6435 The internal `fmtstr` function used in processing a "%s" format string in
6436 the `BIO_*printf` functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
6437 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
6438
6439 Additionally the internal `doapr_outch` function can attempt to write to an
6440 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
6441 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
6442 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
6443 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
6444 also occur.
6445
6446 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
6447 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
6448 is passed to the `BIO_*printf` functions. If applications use these functions
6449 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
6450 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
6451 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
6452 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
6453 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
6454 as command line arguments.
6455
6456 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
6457 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
6458 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
6459
6460 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.

6462
6463 *Matt Caswell*
6464
6465 * Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
6466
6467 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
6468 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
6469 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
6470 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
6471 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
6472
6473 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
6474 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
6475 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
6476 <http://cachebleed.info>.

6484 commands to use 2048 bits by default.

6487
6488 ### Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
6489
6490 * DH small subgroups
6491
6492 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
6493 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
6494 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
6495 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
6496 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
6497 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
6498 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
6499 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
6500 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
6501 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
6502
6503 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
6504 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
6505 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
6506 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
6507 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
6508
6509 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
6510 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
6511 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
6512 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
6513
6514 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
6515 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
6516
6517 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
6518 ([CVE-2016-0701])
6519
6520 *Matt Caswell*
6521
6522 * SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
6523
6524 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
6525 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
6526 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
6527 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
6528
6529 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
6530 and Sebastian Schinzel.

6535 ### Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
6536
6537 * BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
6538
6539 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
6540 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
6541 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
6542 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
6543 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
6544 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
6545 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
6546 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
6547 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
6548 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
6549 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
6550 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

6555 *Andy Polyakov*
6556
6557 * Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
6558
6559 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
6560 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
6561 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
6562 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
6563 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
6564 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
6565 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
6566 authentication.

6572
6573 * X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
6574
6575 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
6576 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
6577 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
6578 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.

6598 ### Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
6599
6600 * Alternate chains certificate forgery
6601
6602 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
6603 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
6604 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
6605 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
6606 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
6607 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.

6609 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
6610 (Google/BoringSSL).

6613
6614 ### Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
6615
6616 * Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
6617 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
6618 restored.
6619
6620 *Matt Caswell*
6621
6622 ### Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
6623
6624 * Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
6625
6626 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
6627 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
6628 field.
6629
6630 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
6631 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
6632 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
6633 client authentication enabled.
6634
6635 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.

6637
6638 *Andy Polyakov*
6639
6640 * Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
6641
6642 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
6643 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
6644 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
6645 time string.
6646
6647 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
6648 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
6649 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
6650 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
6651 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
6652 callbacks.
6653
6654 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
6655 independently by Hanno Böck.

6659
6660 * PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
6661
6662 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
6663 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
6664 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
6665
6666 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
6667 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
6668 servers are not affected.
6669
6670 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).

6673 *Emilia Käsper*
6674
6675 * CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
6676
6677 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
6678 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
6679 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
6680 the CMS code.

6685
6686 * Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
6687
6688 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
6689 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
6690 a double free of the ticket data.

6701 ### Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
6702
6703 * ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
6704
6705 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
6706 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
6707 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
6708
6709 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
6710 University.
6711 ([CVE-2015-0291])
6712
6713 *Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell*
6714
6715 * Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
6716
6717 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
6718 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
6719 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
6720 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
6721 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
6722 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
6723 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
6724 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
6725
6726 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
6727 ([CVE-2015-0290])
6728
6729 *Matt Caswell*
6730
6731 * Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
6732
6733 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
6734 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
6735 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
6736 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
6737 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
6738 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
6739 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
6740 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
6741 server.
6742
6743 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
6744 ([CVE-2015-0207])
6745
6746 *Matt Caswell*
6747
6748 * Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
6749
6750 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
6751 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
6752 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
6753 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
6754 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
6755 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
6756 ([CVE-2015-0286])
6757
6758 *Stephen Henson*
6759
6760 * Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
6761
6762 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
6763 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
6764 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
6765 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
6766 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
6767 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
6768 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
6769
6770 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
6771 ([CVE-2015-0208])
6772
6773 *Stephen Henson*
6774
6775 * ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
6776
6777 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
6778 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
6779 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
6780
6781 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
6782 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
6783 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
6784 not affected.
6785 ([CVE-2015-0287])
6786
6787 *Stephen Henson*
6788
6789 * PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
6790
6791 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
6792 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
6793 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
6794
6795 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
6796 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
6797 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
6798
6799 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
6800 ([CVE-2015-0289])
6801
6802 *Emilia Käsper*
6803
6804 * DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
6805
6806 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
6807 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
6808 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
6809
6810 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
6811 (OpenSSL development team).
6812 ([CVE-2015-0293])
6813
6814 *Emilia Käsper*
6815
6816 * Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
6817
6818 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
6819 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
6820 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
6821 ([CVE-2015-1787])
6822
6823 *Matt Caswell*
6824
6825 * Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
6826
6827 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
6828 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
6829 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
6830 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
6831 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
6832 SSL_client_methodv23)
6833 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
6834 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
6835
6836 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
6837 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
6838 output may be predictable.
6839
6840 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
6841 succeed on an unpatched platform:
6842
6843 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
6844 ([CVE-2015-0285])
6845
6846 *Matt Caswell*
6847
6848 * Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
6849
6850 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
6851 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
6852 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
6853 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
6854 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
6855 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
6856
6857 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
6858 commit 517073cd4b.
6859 ([CVE-2015-0209])
6860
6861 *Matt Caswell*
6862
6863 * X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
6864
6865 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
6866 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
6867
6868 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
6869 ([CVE-2015-0288])
6870
6871 *Stephen Henson*
6872
6873 * Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
6874
6875 *Kurt Roeckx*
6876
6877 ### Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
6878
6879 * Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
6880 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
6881 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
6882 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
6883 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
6884 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
6885
6886 *Andy Polyakov*
6887
6888 * Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
6889 (other platforms pending).
6890
6891 *Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov*
6892
6893 * Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
6894 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
6895
6896 *Rob Stradling*
6897
6898 * Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
6899 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
6900 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
6901
6902 *Bodo Moeller*
6903
6904 * Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
6905 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
6906 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
6907 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
6908
6909 *Andy Polyakov*
6910
6911 * Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
6912
6913 *Marcelo Cerri (IBM)*
6914
6915 * Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
6916 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
6917 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
6918 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
6919
6920 *Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)*
6921
6922 * Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
6923
6924 *Andy Polyakov*
6925
6926 * Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
6927 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
6928 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
6929
6930 *Andy Polyakov, David Miller*
6931
6932 * Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
6933 RSAZ.
6934
6935 *Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)*
6936
6937 * Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
6938 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
6939 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
6940 for TLS encrypt.
6941
6942 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
6943
6944 *Andy Polyakov*
6945
6946 * Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
6947 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
6948 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
6949
6950 *Steve Henson*
6951
6952 * Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
6953 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
6954
6955 *Steve Henson*
6956
6957 * Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
6958 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
6959
6960 *Steve Henson*
6961
6962 * Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
6963 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
6964 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
6965 algorithms and include tests cases.
6966
6967 *Steve Henson*
6968
6969 * Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
6970 structure.
6971
6972 *Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson*
6973
6974 * New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
6975 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
6976
6977 *Steve Henson*
6978
6979 * Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
6980 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
6981 summary of the connection parameters.
6982
6983 *Steve Henson*
6984
6985 * New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
6986 of connection parameters.
6987
6988 *Steve Henson*
6989
6990 * Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
6991
6992 *Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie*
6993
6994 * New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
6995 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
6996
6997 *Steve Henson*
6998
6999 * New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
7000
7001 *Steve Henson*
7002
7003 * New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
7004 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
7005
7006 *Steve Henson*
7007
7008 * New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
7009 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
7010
7011 *Steve Henson*
7012
7013 * Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
7014 certificates.
7015
7016 *Steve Henson*
7017
7018 * Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
7019 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
7020 CRLs using the OCSP API.
7021
7022 *Steve Henson*
7023
7024 * Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
7025
7026 *Steve Henson*
7027
7028 * `SSL_CONF*` functions. These provide a common framework for application
7029 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
7030
7031 *Steve Henson*
7032
7033 * SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
7034 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
7035 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
7036 tracing.
7037
7038 *Steve Henson*
7039
7040 * New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
7041 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
7042
7043 *Steve Henson*
7044
7045 * New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
7046 OID NID.
7047
7048 *Steve Henson*
7049
7050 * Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
7051 client to OpenSSL.
7052
7053 *Steve Henson*
7054
7055 * New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
7056 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
7057 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
7058 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
7059
7060 *Steve Henson*
7061
7062 * New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
7063 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
7064
7065 *Steve Henson*
7066
7067 * Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
7068 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
7069 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
7070 comparison.
7071
7072 *Steve Henson*
7073
7074 * If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
7075 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
7076 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
7077 use the certificate.
7078
7079 *Steve Henson*
7080
7081 * If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
7082
7083 *Steve Henson*
7084
7085 * Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
7086 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
7087 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
7088 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
7089 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
7090 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
7091 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
7092
7093 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
7094 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
7095
7096 *Steve Henson*
7097
7098 * New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
7099 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
7100 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
7101
7102 *Steve Henson*
7103
7104 * New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
7105 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
7106 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
7107 supported signature algorithms.
7108
7109 *Steve Henson*
7110
7111 * Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
7112
7113 *Steve Henson*
7114
7115 * Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
7116 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
7117 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
7118 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
7119 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
7120 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
7121 certificate and specify the whole chain.
7122
7123 *Steve Henson*
7124
7125 * Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
7126 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
7127 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
7128 to have similar checks in it.
7129
7130 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
7131 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
7132 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
7133 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
7134 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
7135
7136 *Steve Henson*
7137
7138 * Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
7139 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
7140 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
7141 shared signature algorithms.
7142
7143 *Steve Henson*
7144
7145 * Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
7146 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
7147 to support them.
7148
7149 *Steve Henson*
7150
7151 * New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
7152 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
7153 it couldn't be removed.
7154
7155 *Steve Henson*
7156
7157 * Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
7158 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
7159
7160 *Steve Henson*
7161
7162 * Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
7163 functions. Add manual page.
7164
7165 *Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)*
7166
7167 * New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
7168 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
7169 a certificate.
7170
7171 *Steve Henson*
7172
7173 * Fix OCSP checking.
7174
7175 *Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie*
7176
7177 * Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
7178 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
7179 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
7180 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
7181 utility) or reject.
7182
7183 *Steve Henson*
7184
7185 * Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
7186 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
7187
7188 *Steve Henson*
7189
7190 * MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
7191 platform support for Linux and Android.
7192
7193 *Andy Polyakov*
7194
7195 * Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
7196
7197 *Andy Polyakov*
7198
7199 * Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
7200 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
7201 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
7202 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
7203 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
7204
7205 *Steve Henson*
7206
7207 * Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
7208 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
7209 the new parameter format automatically.
7210
7211 *Steve Henson*
7212
7213 * Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
7214 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
7215
7216 *Steve Henson*
7217
7218 * Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
7219
7220 *Steve Henson*
7221
7222 * Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
7223 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
7224 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
7225 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
7226 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
7227
7228 *Steve Henson*
7229
7230 * Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
7231 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
7232 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
7233 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
7234 to set list of supported curves.
7235
7236 *Steve Henson*
7237
7238 * New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
7239 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
7240 to print out received values.
7241
7242 *Steve Henson*
7243
7244 * Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
7245 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
7246 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
7247
7248 *Steve Henson*
7249
7250 * Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
7251 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
7252
7253 *Steve Henson*
7254
7255 * Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
7256 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
7257
7258 *Steve Henson*
7259
7260 * Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
7261 certificates.
7262
7263 *Steve Henson*
7264
7265 * New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
7266 the certificate.
7267 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
7268 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
7269 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.

7273
7274 ### Changes between 1.0.1t and 1.0.1u [22 Sep 2016]
7275
7276 * OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
7277
7278 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
7279 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
7280 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
7281 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
7282 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
7283 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
7284 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
7285
7286 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
7287 ([CVE-2016-6304])
7288
7289 *Matt Caswell*
7290
7291 * In order to mitigate the SWEET32 attack, the DES ciphers were moved from
7292 HIGH to MEDIUM.
7293
7294 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Karthikeyan Bhargavan and Gaetan
7295 Leurent (INRIA)
7296 ([CVE-2016-2183])
7297
7298 *Rich Salz*
7299
7300 * OOB write in MDC2_Update()
7301
7302 An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or
7303 through the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker
7304 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous
7305 call to EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check
7306 can overflow resulting in a heap corruption.
7307
7308 The amount of data needed is comparable to SIZE_MAX which is impractical

7316 * Malformed SHA512 ticket DoS
7317
7318 If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
7319 DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
7320 ultimately crash.
7321
7322 The use of SHA512 in TLS session tickets is comparatively rare as it requires
7323 a custom server callback and ticket lookup mechanism.

7329
7330 * OOB write in BN_bn2dec()
7331
7332 The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
7333 This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
7334 overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
7335 or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
7336 record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.

7341 *Stephen Henson*
7342
7343 * OOB read in TS_OBJ_print_bio()
7344
7345 The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
7346 the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
7347 of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are
7348 presented.

7354
7355 * Pointer arithmetic undefined behaviour
7356
7357 Avoid some undefined pointer arithmetic
7358
7359 A common idiom in the codebase is to check limits in the following manner:
7360 "p + len > limit"
7361
7362 Where "p" points to some malloc'd data of SIZE bytes and
7363 limit == p + SIZE
7364
7365 "len" here could be from some externally supplied data (e.g. from a TLS
7366 message).
7367
7368 The rules of C pointer arithmetic are such that "p + len" is only well
7369 defined where len <= SIZE. Therefore, the above idiom is actually
7370 undefined behaviour.
7371
7372 For example this could cause problems if some malloc implementation
7373 provides an address for "p" such that "p + len" actually overflows for
7374 values of len that are too big and therefore p + len < limit.

7381 * Constant time flag not preserved in DSA signing
7382
7383 Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in
7384 order to avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA
7385 implementation means that a non-constant time codepath is followed for
7386 certain operations. This has been demonstrated through a cache-timing
7387 attack to be sufficient for an attacker to recover the private DSA key.

7396 * DTLS buffered message DoS
7397
7398 In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order
7399 those messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered
7400 for later use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that
7401 those messages do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake
7402 has been completed. An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to
7403 remain in the buffer when they are no longer required. These messages will
7404 be cleared when the DTLS connection is closed. The default maximum size for
7405 a message is 100k. Therefore, the attacker could force an additional 1500k
7406 to be consumed per connection. By opening many simultaneous connections an
7407 attacker could cause a DoS attack through memory exhaustion.

7411
7412 *Matt Caswell*
7413
7414 * DTLS replay protection DoS
7415
7416 A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records
7417 that arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before
7418 the MAC for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an
7419 attacker by sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to
7420 decrypt or have a valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means
7421 that all subsequent legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of
7422 service for a specific DTLS connection.
7423

7427 *Matt Caswell*
7428
7429 * Certificate message OOB reads
7430
7431 In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result
7432 in OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a
7433 theoretical DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common
7434 platforms.
7435
7436 The messages affected are client certificate, client certificate request
7437 and server certificate. As a result the attack can only be performed
7438 against a client or a server which enables client authentication.

7447 * Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
7448
7449 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
7450 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
7451 AES-NI.
7452
7453 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
7454 attack ([CVE-2013-0169]). The padding check was rewritten to be in
7455 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
7456 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
7457 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
7458 bytes.

7464
7465 * Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
7466
7467 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
7468 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
7469 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
7470 corruption.
7471
7472 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
7473 the `PEM_write_bio*` family of functions. These are mainly used within the
7474 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
7475 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
7476 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
7477 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
7478
7479 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.

7481
7482 *Matt Caswell*
7483
7484 * Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
7485
7486 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
7487 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
7488 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
7489 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
7490 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
7491 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
7492 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
7493 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
7494 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
7495 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
7496 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
7497 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
7498 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
7499 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
7500 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
7501 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.

7508 * Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
7509
7510 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
7511 a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
7512 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
7513
7514 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
7515 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
7516 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
7517 applications are not affected.

7526 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications

7549
7550 ### Changes between 1.0.1r and 1.0.1s [1 Mar 2016]
7551
7552 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
7553 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
7554 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
7555
7556 *Viktor Dukhovni*
7557
7558 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
7559 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
7560 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
7561 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
7562 will need to explicitly call either of:
7563
7564 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
7565 or
7566 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
7567
7568 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
7569 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
7570 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
7571 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
7572 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.

7578
7579 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
7580 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
7581 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
7582 considered rare.

7589
7590 * Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
7591
7592 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
7593
7594 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
7595 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
7596 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
7597 is configured.
7598
7599 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
7600 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
7601 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
7602 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
7603 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
7604 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
7605 that of a valid user.

7607
7608 *Emilia Käsper*
7609
7610 * Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
7611
7612 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
7613 int value `i`. Later `bn_expand` is called with a value of `i * 4`. For
7614 large values of `i` this can result in `bn_expand` not allocating any
7615 memory because `i * 4` is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
7616 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
7617 of `i`, the calculation `i * 4` could be a positive value smaller than `i`.
7618 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
7619 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
7620 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
7621 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
7622 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
7623
7624 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
7625 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
7626 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
7627 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
7628 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.

7632
7633 *Matt Caswell*
7634
7635 * Fix memory issues in `BIO_*printf` functions
7636
7637 The internal `fmtstr` function used in processing a "%s" format string in
7638 the `BIO_*printf` functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
7639 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
7640
7641 Additionally the internal `doapr_outch` function can attempt to write to an
7642 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
7643 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
7644 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
7645 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
7646 also occur.
7647
7648 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
7649 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
7650 is passed to the `BIO_*printf` functions. If applications use these functions
7651 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
7652 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
7653 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
7654 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
7655 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
7656 as command line arguments.
7657
7658 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
7659 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
7660 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.

7667 * Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
7668
7669 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
7670 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
7671 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
7672 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
7673 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.

7693
7694 As a precautionary measure the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been
7695 switched on by default and cannot be disabled. This could have some
7696 performance impact.
7697
7698 *Matt Caswell*
7699
7700 * SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
7701
7702 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
7703 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
7704 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
7705 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

7718
7719 * Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
7720
7721 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
7722 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
7723 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
7724 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
7725 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
7726 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
7727 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
7728 authentication.

7735 * X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
7736
7737 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
7738 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
7739 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
7740 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.

7761
7762 * Alternate chains certificate forgery
7763
7764 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
7765 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
7766 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
7767 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
7768 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
7769 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.

7794
7795 * Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
7796
7797 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
7798 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
7799 field.
7800
7801 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
7802 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
7803 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
7804 client authentication enabled.

7809 *Andy Polyakov*
7810
7811 * Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
7812
7813 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
7814 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
7815 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
7816 time string.
7817
7818 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
7819 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
7820 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
7821 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
7822 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
7823 callbacks.
7824
7825 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
7826 independently by Hanno Böck.
7827 ([CVE-2015-1789])
7828
7829 *Emilia Käsper*
7830
7831 * PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
7832
7833 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
7834 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
7835 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
7836
7837 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
7838 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
7839 servers are not affected.
7840
7841 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
7842 ([CVE-2015-1790])
7843
7844 *Emilia Käsper*
7845
7846 * CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
7847
7848 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
7849 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
7850 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
7851 the CMS code.
7852 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
7853 ([CVE-2015-1792])
7854
7855 *Stephen Henson*
7856
7857 * Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
7858
7859 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
7860 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
7861 a double free of the ticket data.
7862 ([CVE-2015-1791])
7863
7864 *Matt Caswell*
7865
7866 * Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 768 bits.

7874 ### Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.1m [19 Mar 2015]
7875
7876 * Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
7877
7878 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
7879 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
7880 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
7881 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
7882 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
7883 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
7884 ([CVE-2015-0286])
7885
7886 *Stephen Henson*
7887
7888 * ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
7889
7890 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
7891 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
7892 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
7893
7894 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
7895 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
7896 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
7897 not affected.
7898 ([CVE-2015-0287])
7899
7900 *Stephen Henson*
7901
7902 * PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
7903
7904 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
7905 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
7906 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
7907
7908 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
7909 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
7910 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
7911
7912 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
7913 ([CVE-2015-0289])
7914
7915 *Emilia Käsper*
7916
7917 * DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
7918
7919 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
7920 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
7921 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
7922
7923 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
7924 (OpenSSL development team).
7925 ([CVE-2015-0293])
7926
7927 *Emilia Käsper*
7928
7929 * Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
7930
7931 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
7932 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
7933 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
7934 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
7935 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
7936 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
7937
7938 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
7939 commit 517073cd4b.
7940 ([CVE-2015-0209])
7941
7942 *Matt Caswell*
7943
7944 * X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
7945
7946 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
7947 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
7948
7949 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
7950 ([CVE-2015-0288])
7951
7952 *Stephen Henson*
7953
7954 * Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
7955
7956 *Kurt Roeckx*
7957
7958 ### Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
7959
7960 * Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
7961
7962 *Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte*
7963
7964 ### Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
7965
7966 * Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
7967 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
7968 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
7969 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
7970 ([CVE-2014-3571])
7971
7972 *Steve Henson*
7973
7974 * Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
7975 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
7976 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
7977 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
7978 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
7979 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
7980 ([CVE-2015-0206])
7981
7982 *Matt Caswell*
7983
7984 * Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
7985 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
7986 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
7987 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
7988 ([CVE-2014-3569])
7989
7990 *Kurt Roeckx*
7991
7992 * Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
7993 ECDH ciphersuites.
7994
7995 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
7996 reporting this issue.
7997 ([CVE-2014-3572])
7998
7999 *Steve Henson*
8000
8001 * Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
8002 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
8003 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
8004 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
8005 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
8006 INRIA or reporting this issue.
8007 ([CVE-2015-0204])
8008
8009 *Steve Henson*
8010
8011 * Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
8012 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
8013 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
8014 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
8015 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
8016 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
8017 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
8018 this issue.
8019 ([CVE-2015-0205])
8020
8021 *Steve Henson*
8022
8023 * Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
8024 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
8025
8026 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
8027 and can vary with the CTX.
8028
8029 *Adam Langley*
8030
8031 * Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
8032
8033 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
8034 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
8035 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
8036 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
8037 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
8038
8039 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
8040
8041 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
8042 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
8043
8044 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
8045
8046 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
8047 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
8048 errors for some broken certificates.
8049
8050 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
8051
8052 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
8053
8054 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
8055 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
8056
8057 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
8058 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
8059 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
8060 (negative or with leading zeroes).
8061
8062 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
8063 of the OpenSSL core team.
8064
8065 ([CVE-2014-8275])
8066
8067 *Steve Henson*
8068
8069 * Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
8070 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
8071 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
8072 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
8073 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
8074 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
8075 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
8076 the OpenSSL core team.
8077 ([CVE-2014-3570])
8078
8079 *Andy Polyakov*
8080
8081 * Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
8082 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
8083 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
8084 sanity and breaks all known clients.
8085
8086 *David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper*
8087
8088 * Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
8089 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
8090 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
8091
8092 *Emilia Käsper*
8093
8094 * Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
8095 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
8096 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
8097 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
8098 announced in the initial ServerHello.
8099
8100 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
8101 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
8102 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
8103
8104 *Emilia Käsper*
8105
8106 ### Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
8107
8108 * SRTP Memory Leak.
8109
8110 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
8111 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
8112 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
8113 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
8114 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
8115 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
8116 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
8117
8118 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
8119 ([CVE-2014-3513])
8120
8121 *OpenSSL team*
8122
8123 * Session Ticket Memory Leak.
8124
8125 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
8126 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
8127 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
8128 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
8129 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
8130 attack.
8131 ([CVE-2014-3567])
8132
8133 *Steve Henson*
8134
8135 * Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
8136
8137 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
8138 could accept and complete an SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
8139 configured to send them.
8140 ([CVE-2014-3568])
8141
8142 *Akamai and the OpenSSL team*
8143
8144 * Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
8145 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
8146 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
8147 ([CVE-2014-3566])
8148
8149 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller*
8150
8151 * Add additional DigestInfo checks.
8152
8153 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
8154 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
8155 DigestInfo structures.
8156
8157 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
8158
8159 *Steve Henson*
8160
8161 ### Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
8162
8163 * Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
8164 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
8165 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
8166
8167 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
8168 Group for discovering this issue.
8169 ([CVE-2014-3512])
8170
8171 *Steve Henson*
8172
8173 * A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
8174 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
8175 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
8176 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
8177 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
8178
8179 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
8180 researching this issue.
8181 ([CVE-2014-3511])
8182
8183 *David Benjamin*
8184
8185 * OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
8186 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
8187 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
8188 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
8189
8190 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
8191 issue.
8192 ([CVE-2014-3510])
8193
8194 *Emilia Käsper*
8195
8196 * By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
8197 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
8198 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
8199 ([CVE-2014-3507])
8200
8201 *Adam Langley*
8202
8203 * An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
8204 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
8205 Denial of Service attack.
8206 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
8207 ([CVE-2014-3506])
8208
8209 *Adam Langley*
8210
8211 * An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
8212 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
8213 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
8214 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
8215 this issue.
8216 ([CVE-2014-3505])
8217
8218 *Adam Langley*
8219
8220 * If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
8221 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
8222 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
8223
8224 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
8225 issue.
8226 ([CVE-2014-3509])
8227
8228 *Gabor Tyukasz*
8229
8230 * A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
8231 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
8232 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
8233 Denial of Service attack.
8234
8235 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
8236 discovering and researching this issue.
8237 ([CVE-2014-5139])
8238
8239 *Steve Henson*
8240
8241 * A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
8242 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
8243 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
8244 output to the attacker.
8245
8246 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
8247 ([CVE-2014-3508])
8248
8249 *Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson*
8250
8251 * Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
8252 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
8253 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
8254
8255 *Bodo Moeller*
8256
8257 ### Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
8258
8259 * Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
8260 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
8261 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
8262
8263 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
8264 researching this issue. ([CVE-2014-0224])
8265
8266 *KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson*
8267
8268 * Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
8269 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
8270 in a DoS attack.
8271
8272 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
8273 ([CVE-2014-0221])
8274
8275 *Imre Rad, Steve Henson*
8276
8277 * Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
8278 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
8279 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
8280 code on a vulnerable client or server.
8281
8282 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. ([CVE-2014-0195])
8283
8284 *Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson*
8285
8286 * Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
8287 are subject to a denial of service attack.
8288
8289 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
8290 this issue. ([CVE-2014-3470])
8291
8292 *Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson*
8293
8294 * Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
8295 compilation flags.
8296
8297 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
8298
8299 * Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
8300 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
8301
8302 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
8303
8304 * Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
8305
8306 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
8307
8308 ### Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
8309
8310 * A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
8311 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
8312 server.
8313
8314 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
8315 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
8316 preparing the fix ([CVE-2014-0160])
8317
8318 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller*
8319
8320 * Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
8321 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
8322 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
8323 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140>
8324
8325 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
8326 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix ([CVE-2014-0076])
8327
8328 *Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger*
8329
8330 * TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
8331
8332 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
8333 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
8334 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
8335 is at least 512 bytes long.
8336
8337 *Adam Langley, Steve Henson*
8338
8339 ### Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
8340
8341 * Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
8342 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
8343 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
8344 ([CVE-2013-4353])
8345
8346 * Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
8347 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
8348 to be resent. ([CVE-2013-6450])
8349
8350 *Steve Henson*
8351
8352 * Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
8353 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
8354 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
8355 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
8356 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
8357 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.

8360
8361 ### Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
8362
8363 * Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
8364 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
8365
8366 *Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson*
8367
8368 ### Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
8369
8370 * Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
8371
8372 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
8373 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
8374 at: <http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/>
8375
8376 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
8377 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
8378 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
8379 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
8380 ([CVE-2013-0169])
8381
8382 *Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson*
8383
8384 * Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
8385 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
8386 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
8387 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
8388 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
8389 ([CVE-2012-2686])
8390
8391 *Adam Langley*
8392
8393 * Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
8394 This fixes a DoS attack. ([CVE-2013-0166])
8395
8396 *Steve Henson*
8397
8398 * Make openssl verify return errors.
8399
8400 *Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie*
8401
8402 * Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
8403 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
8404 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
8405 See <http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836>.
8406
8407 *Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>*
8408
8409 * Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
8410
8411 *Steve Henson*
8412
8413 * Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
8414 if renegotiating.
8415
8416 *Steve Henson*
8417
8418 ### Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
8419
8420 * Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
8421 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
8422
8423 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
8424 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
8425 ([CVE-2012-2333])
8426
8427 *Steve Henson*
8428
8429 * Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
8430 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
8431
8432 *Steve Henson*
8433
8434 * In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
8435 approved.
8436
8437 *Steve Henson*
8438
8439 ### Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
8440
8441 * OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
8442 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
8443 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
8444 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
8445 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
8446 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
8447 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
8448 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
8449 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
8450 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
8451
8452 *Steve Henson*
8453
8454 * In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
8455 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
8456 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
8457 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
8458 above, it's not sufficient to pass `SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1`, one has to pass
8459 `SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2`. This applies to
8460 client side.
8461
8462 *Andy Polyakov*
8463
8464 ### Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
8465
8466 * Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
8467 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
8468 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
8469
8470 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
8471 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
8472 ([CVE-2012-2110])
8473
8474 *Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team*
8475
8476 * Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
8477
8478 *Adam Langley*
8479
8480 * Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
8481 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
8482
8483 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
8484 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
8485 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
8486 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
8487 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
8488 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
8489 Most broken servers should now work.
8490 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
8491 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
8492
8493 *Steve Henson*
8494
8495 * Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
8496
8497 *Andy Polyakov*
8498
8499 ### Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
8500
8501 * Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
8502 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
8503
8504 *Steve Henson*
8505
8506 * The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
8507 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
8508 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
8509 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
8510 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
8511
8512 *Steve Henson*
8513
8514 * Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
8515 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
8516 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
8517 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
8518 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
8519
8520 *Steve Henson*
8521
8522 * Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
8523
8524 *Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>*
8525
8526 * Add support for SCTP.
8527
8528 *Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>*
8529
8530 * Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
8531
8532 *Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>*
8533
8534 * Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
8535
8536 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
8537 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
8538 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
8539 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
8540 - s390x: z196 support;
8541 - `*`: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
8542
8543 *Andy Polyakov*
8544
8545 * Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
8546 (removal of unnecessary code)
8547
8548 *Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>*
8549
8550 * Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
8551
8552 *Eric Rescorla*
8553
8554 * Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
8555
8556 *Eric Rescorla*
8557
8558 * Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
8559 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00>. Can be
8560 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
8561 by Google.
8562
8563 *Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie*
8564
8565 * Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
8566 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
8567 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type `__uint128_t` is
8568 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
8569 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
8570
8571 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
8572 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
8573 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
8574
8575 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
8576 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
8577 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
8578
8579 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
8580 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
8581 implementations).
8582
8583 *Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)*
8584
8585 * Use type ossl_ssize_t instead of ssize_t which isn't available on
8586 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
8587 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
8588
8589 *Steve Henson*
8590
8591 * New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
8592 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
8593 particular PSS.
8594
8595 *Steve Henson*
8596
8597 * Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
8598 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
8599 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
8600
8601 *Steve Henson*
8602
8603 * Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
8604 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
8605 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
8606 the appropriate parameters.
8607
8608 *Steve Henson*
8609
8610 * Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
8611 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
8612 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
8613 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
8614 against a number of sample certificates.
8615
8616 *Steve Henson*
8617
8618 * Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
8619
8620 *Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>*
8621
8622 * Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
8623 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
8624
8625 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
8626 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
8627 parameters r, s.
8628
8629 *Steve Henson*
8630
8631 * Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
8632 RFC3211.
8633
8634 *Steve Henson*
8635
8636 * Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
8637 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
8638 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
8639 password based CMS).
8640
8641 *Steve Henson*
8642
8643 * Session-handling fixes:
8644 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
8645 but also support Session Tickets.
8646 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
8647 presented a ticket with an expired session.
8648 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
8649 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
8650 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
8651
8652 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)*
8653
8654 * Fix PSK session representation.
8655
8656 *Bodo Moeller*
8657
8658 * Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
8659
8660 This work was sponsored by Intel.
8661
8662 *Andy Polyakov*
8663
8664 * Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
8665 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
8666 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
8667 RFC5289. Generalise some `AES*` cipherstrings to include GCM and
8668 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
8669
8670 *Steve Henson*
8671
8672 * Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
8673 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
8674
8675 *Steve Henson*
8676
8677 * Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
8678 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
8679 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
8680
8681 *Steve Henson*
8682
8683 * For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
8684 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
8685 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
8686 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
8687
8688 *Steve Henson*
8689
8690 * Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
8691 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
8692 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
8693
8694 *Steve Henson*
8695
8696 * Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
8697
8698 *Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson*
8699
8700 * Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
8701
8702 *Steve Henson*
8703
8704 * Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
8705 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
8706
8707 *Steve Henson*
8708
8709 * New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
8710
8711 *Steve Henson*
8712
8713 * Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
8714 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
8715
8716 *Steve Henson*
8717
8718 * Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
8719 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
8720
8721 *Steve Henson*
8722
8723 * Add similar low-level API blocking to ciphers.
8724
8725 *Steve Henson*
8726
8727 * low-level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
8728 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
8729 to use them can use the `private_*` version instead.
8730
8731 *Steve Henson*
8732
8733 * Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
8734
8735 *Steve Henson*
8736
8737 * Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
8738
8739 *Steve Henson*
8740
8741 * Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
8742 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
8743
8744 *Steve Henson*
8745
8746 * Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
8747 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
8748 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
8749
8750 *Steve Henson*
8751
8752 * Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
8753
8754 *Steve Henson*
8755
8756 * Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
8757 and enable MD5.
8758
8759 *Steve Henson*
8760
8761 * Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
8762 FIPS modules versions.
8763
8764 *Steve Henson*
8765
8766 * Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
8767 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
8768 until after the certificate request message is received.
8769
8770 *Steve Henson*
8771
8772 * Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
8773 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
8774 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
8775 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
8776
8777 *Steve Henson*
8778
8779 * Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
8780 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
8781 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
8782 support yet and no support for client certificates.
8783
8784 *Steve Henson*
8785
8786 * Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
8787 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
8788 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
8789 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
8790 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
8791 and version checking.
8792
8793 *Steve Henson*
8794
8795 * New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
8796 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
8797 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
8798 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
8799
8800 *Steve Henson*
8801
8802 * A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
8803 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
8804 *Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
8805 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
8806 Ben Laurie*
8807
8808 * Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
8809
8810 *Steve Henson*
8811
8812 * Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
8813 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
8814
8815 *Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>*
8816
8817 * Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
8818 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
8819 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
8820
8821 *Steve Henson*
8822
8823 * Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
8824
8825 *Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson*
8826
8827 * Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
8828 a few changes are required:
8829
8830 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
8831 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
8832 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
8833 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
8834 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.

8841 ### Changes between 1.0.0s and 1.0.0t [3 Dec 2015]
8842
8843 * X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
8844
8845 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
8846 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
8847 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
8848 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
8849
8850 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
8851 libFuzzer.
8852 ([CVE-2015-3195])
8853
8854 *Stephen Henson*
8855
8856 * Race condition handling PSK identify hint
8857
8858 If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then
8859 the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
8860 result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the
8861 identify hint data.
8862 ([CVE-2015-3196])

8865
8866 ### Changes between 1.0.0r and 1.0.0s [11 Jun 2015]
8867
8868 * Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
8869
8870 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
8871 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
8872 field.
8873
8874 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
8875 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
8876 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
8877 client authentication enabled.
8878
8879 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
8880 ([CVE-2015-1788])
8881
8882 *Andy Polyakov*
8883
8884 * Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
8885
8886 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
8887 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
8888 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
8889 time string.
8890
8891 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
8892 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
8893 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
8894 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
8895 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
8896 callbacks.
8897
8898 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
8899 independently by Hanno Böck.
8900 ([CVE-2015-1789])
8901
8902 *Emilia Käsper*
8903
8904 * PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
8905
8906 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
8907 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
8908 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
8909
8910 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
8911 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
8912 servers are not affected.
8913
8914 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
8915 ([CVE-2015-1790])
8916
8917 *Emilia Käsper*
8918
8919 * CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
8920
8921 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
8922 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
8923 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
8924 the CMS code.
8925 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
8926 ([CVE-2015-1792])
8927
8928 *Stephen Henson*
8929
8930 * Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
8931
8932 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
8933 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
8934 a double free of the ticket data.
8935 ([CVE-2015-1791])

8937 *Matt Caswell*
8938
8939 ### Changes between 1.0.0q and 1.0.0r [19 Mar 2015]
8940
8941 * Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
8942
8943 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
8944 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
8945 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
8946 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
8947 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
8948 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
8949 ([CVE-2015-0286])
8950
8951 *Stephen Henson*
8952
8953 * ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
8954
8955 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
8956 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
8957 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
8958
8959 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
8960 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
8961 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
8962 not affected.
8963 ([CVE-2015-0287])
8964
8965 *Stephen Henson*
8966
8967 * PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
8968
8969 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
8970 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
8971 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
8972
8973 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
8974 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
8975 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
8976
8977 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
8978 ([CVE-2015-0289])
8979
8980 *Emilia Käsper*
8981
8982 * DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
8983
8984 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
8985 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
8986 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
8987
8988 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
8989 (OpenSSL development team).
8990 ([CVE-2015-0293])
8991
8992 *Emilia Käsper*
8993
8994 * Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
8995
8996 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
8997 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
8998 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
8999 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
9000 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
9001 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
9002
9003 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
9004 commit 517073cd4b.
9005 ([CVE-2015-0209])
9006
9007 *Matt Caswell*
9008
9009 * X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
9010
9011 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
9012 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
9013
9014 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
9015 ([CVE-2015-0288])
9016
9017 *Stephen Henson*
9018
9019 * Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
9020
9021 *Kurt Roeckx*
9022
9023 ### Changes between 1.0.0p and 1.0.0q [15 Jan 2015]
9024
9025 * Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
9026
9027 *Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte*
9028
9029 ### Changes between 1.0.0o and 1.0.0p [8 Jan 2015]
9030
9031 * Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
9032 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
9033 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
9034 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
9035 ([CVE-2014-3571])
9036
9037 *Steve Henson*
9038
9039 * Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
9040 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
9041 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
9042 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
9043 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
9044 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
9045 ([CVE-2015-0206])
9046
9047 *Matt Caswell*
9048
9049 * Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
9050 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
9051 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
9052 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
9053 ([CVE-2014-3569])
9054
9055 *Kurt Roeckx*
9056
9057 * Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
9058 ECDH ciphersuites.
9059
9060 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
9061 reporting this issue.
9062 ([CVE-2014-3572])
9063
9064 *Steve Henson*
9065
9066 * Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
9067 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
9068 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
9069 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
9070 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
9071 INRIA or reporting this issue.
9072 ([CVE-2015-0204])
9073
9074 *Steve Henson*
9075
9076 * Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
9077 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
9078 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
9079 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
9080 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
9081 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
9082 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
9083 this issue.
9084 ([CVE-2015-0205])
9085
9086 *Steve Henson*
9087
9088 * Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
9089 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
9090 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
9091 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
9092 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
9093 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
9094 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
9095 the OpenSSL core team.
9096 ([CVE-2014-3570])
9097
9098 *Andy Polyakov*
9099
9100 * Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
9101
9102 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
9103 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
9104 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
9105 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
9106 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
9107
9108 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
9109
9110 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
9111 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
9112
9113 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
9114
9115 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
9116 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
9117 errors for some broken certificates.
9118
9119 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
9120
9121 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
9122
9123 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
9124 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
9125
9126 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
9127 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
9128 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
9129 (negative or with leading zeroes).
9130
9131 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
9132 of the OpenSSL core team.
9133
9134 ([CVE-2014-8275])
9135
9136 *Steve Henson*
9137
9138 ### Changes between 1.0.0n and 1.0.0o [15 Oct 2014]
9139
9140 * Session Ticket Memory Leak.
9141
9142 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
9143 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
9144 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
9145 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
9146 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
9147 attack.
9148 ([CVE-2014-3567])
9149
9150 *Steve Henson*
9151
9152 * Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
9153
9154 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
9155 could accept and complete an SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
9156 configured to send them.
9157 ([CVE-2014-3568])
9158
9159 *Akamai and the OpenSSL team*
9160
9161 * Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
9162 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
9163 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
9164 ([CVE-2014-3566])
9165
9166 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller*
9167
9168 * Add additional DigestInfo checks.
9169
9170 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
9171 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
9172 DigestInfo structures.
9173
9174 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
9175
9176 *Steve Henson*
9177
9178 ### Changes between 1.0.0m and 1.0.0n [6 Aug 2014]
9179
9180 * OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
9181 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
9182 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
9183 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
9184
9185 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
9186 issue.
9187 ([CVE-2014-3510])
9188
9189 *Emilia Käsper*
9190
9191 * By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
9192 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
9193 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
9194 ([CVE-2014-3507])
9195
9196 *Adam Langley*
9197
9198 * An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
9199 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
9200 Denial of Service attack.
9201 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
9202 ([CVE-2014-3506])
9203
9204 *Adam Langley*
9205
9206 * An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
9207 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
9208 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
9209 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
9210 this issue.
9211 ([CVE-2014-3505])
9212
9213 *Adam Langley*
9214
9215 * If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
9216 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
9217 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
9218
9219 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
9220 issue.
9221 ([CVE-2014-3509])
9222
9223 *Gabor Tyukasz*
9224
9225 * A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
9226 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
9227 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
9228 output to the attacker.
9229
9230 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
9231 ([CVE-2014-3508])
9232
9233 *Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson*
9234
9235 * Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
9236 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
9237 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
9238
9239 *Bodo Moeller*
9240
9241 ### Changes between 1.0.0l and 1.0.0m [5 Jun 2014]
9242
9243 * Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
9244 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
9245 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
9246
9247 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
9248 researching this issue. ([CVE-2014-0224])
9249
9250 *KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson*
9251
9252 * Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
9253 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
9254 in a DoS attack.
9255
9256 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
9257 ([CVE-2014-0221])
9258
9259 *Imre Rad, Steve Henson*
9260
9261 * Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
9262 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
9263 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
9264 code on a vulnerable client or server.
9265
9266 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. ([CVE-2014-0195])
9267
9268 *Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson*
9269
9270 * Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
9271 are subject to a denial of service attack.
9272
9273 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
9274 this issue. ([CVE-2014-3470])
9275
9276 *Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson*
9277
9278 * Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
9279 compilation flags.
9280
9281 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
9282
9283 * Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
9284 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
9285
9286 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
9287
9288 * Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
9289
9290 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
9291
9292 * Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
9293 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
9294 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
9295 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140>
9296
9297 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this

9299
9300 *Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger*
9301
9302 ### Changes between 1.0.0k and 1.0.0l [6 Jan 2014]
9303
9304 * Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
9305 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
9306 to be resent. ([CVE-2013-6450])
9307
9308 *Steve Henson*
9309
9310 * Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
9311 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
9312 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
9313 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
9314 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
9315 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
9316
9317 *Rob Stradling, Adam Langley*
9318
9319 ### Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
9320
9321 * Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
9322
9323 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
9324 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
9325 at: <http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/>
9326
9327 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
9328 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
9329 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
9330 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
9331 ([CVE-2013-0169])
9332
9333 *Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson*
9334
9335 * Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
9336 This fixes a DoS attack. ([CVE-2013-0166])
9337
9338 *Steve Henson*
9339
9340 * Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
9341 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
9342 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
9343 See <http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836>.
9344 (This is a backport)
9345
9346 *Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>*
9347
9348 * Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
9349
9350 *Steve Henson*
9351
9352 ### Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
9353
9354 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
9355 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
9356
9357 * Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
9358 to fix DoS attack.
9359
9360 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
9361 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
9362 ([CVE-2012-2333])
9363
9364 *Steve Henson*
9365
9366 * Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
9367 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
9368
9369 *Steve Henson*
9370
9371 ### Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
9372
9373 * Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
9374 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
9375 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
9376
9377 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
9378 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
9379 ([CVE-2012-2110])
9380
9381 *Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team*
9382
9383 ### Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
9384
9385 * Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
9386 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
9387 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
9388 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
9389 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
9390 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
9391 an MMA defence is not necessary.
9392 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
9393 this issue. ([CVE-2012-0884])
9394
9395 *Steve Henson*
9396
9397 * Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
9398 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
9399 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.

9402
9403 ### Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
9404
9405 * Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
9406 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
9407 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
9408 preparing a fix. ([CVE-2012-0050])
9409
9410 *Antonio Martin*
9411
9412 ### Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
9413
9414 * Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
9415 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
9416 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
9417 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
9418 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
9419 paper describing this attack can be found at:
9420 <http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf>
9421 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
9422 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
9423 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
9424 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
9425 for preparing the fix. ([CVE-2011-4108])
9426
9427 *Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen*
9428
9429 * Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
9430 ([CVE-2011-4576])
9431
9432 *Adam Langley (Google)*
9433
9434 * Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
9435 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
9436 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. ([CVE-2011-4619])
9437
9438 *Adam Langley (Google)*
9439
9440 * Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. ([CVE-2012-0027])
9441
9442 *Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>*
9443
9444 * Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
9445 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
9446 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. ([CVE-2011-4577])
9447
9448 *Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>*
9449
9450 * Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
9451
9452 *Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>*
9453
9454 * Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
9455
9456 *Adam Langley (Google)*
9457
9458 * Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
9459
9460 *Emilia Käsper (Google)*
9461
9462 * Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
9463 interpretations of the `..._len` fields).
9464
9465 *Adam Langley (Google)*
9466
9467 * Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
9468 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
9469 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
9470
9471 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
9472 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
9473 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
9474 the last update always remained unused).
9475
9476 *Emilia Käsper (Google)*
9477
9478 * In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
9479
9480 *Bob Buckholz (Google)*
9481
9482 ### Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
9483
9484 * Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
9485 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. ([CVE-2011-3207])
9486
9487 *Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>*
9488
9489 * Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
9490 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. ([CVE-2011-3210])
9491
9492 *Adam Langley (Google)*
9493
9494 * Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
9495
9496 *Bodo Moeller*
9497
9498 * Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
9499 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
9500 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
9501
9502 *Steve Henson*
9503
9504 * Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
9505 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
9506 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf>
9507
9508 *Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri*
9509
9510 ### Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
9511
9512 * Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
9513
9514 *Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)*
9515
9516 * Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
9517 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
9518 ambiguous.
9519
9520 *Steve Henson*
9521
9522 ### Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
9523
9524 * Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
9525 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
9526 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
9527
9528 *Steve Henson*
9529
9530 * Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
9531 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
9532 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
9533
9534 *Ben Laurie*
9535
9536 ### Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
9537
9538 * Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
9539 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
9540 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
9541
9542 *Steve Henson*
9543
9544 * Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
9545 a DLL.
9546
9547 *Steve Henson*
9548
9549 ### Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
9550
9551 * Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
9552 ([CVE-2010-1633])
9553
9554 *Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>*
9555
9556 ### Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
9557
9558 * Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
9559 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
9560 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
9561
9562 *Steve Henson*
9563
9564 * Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
9565
9566 *Steve Henson*
9567
9568 * Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
9569 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
9570
9571 *Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>*
9572
9573 * Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
9574 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
9575 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
9576
9577 *Steve Henson*
9578
9579 * Add load_crls() function to commands tidying load_certs() too. Add option
9580 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
9581
9582 *Steve Henson*
9583
9584 * Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
9585 some responders need this.
9586
9587 *Steve Henson*
9588
9589 * The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
9590 correctly.
9591
9592 *Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>*
9593
9594 * Update verify callback code in `apps/s_cb.c` and `apps/verify.c`, it
9595 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
9596 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
9597
9598 *Steve Henson*
9599
9600 * Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
9601
9602 *Steve Henson*
9603
9604 * In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
9605 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
9606 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
9607 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
9608 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
9609 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
9610 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
9611 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
9612
9613 *Steve Henson*
9614
9615 * Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
9616 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
9617 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
9618
9619 *Guenter <lists@gknw.net>*
9620
9621 * Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
9622
9623 *Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>*
9624
9625 * Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
9626 be used on C++.
9627
9628 *Steve Henson*
9629
9630 * Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
9631 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
9632 `EVP_MD_do_all*()` and `EVP_CIPHER_do_all*()` to include the name a digest
9633 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
9634 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
9635 attempting to work them out.
9636
9637 *Steve Henson*
9638
9639 * If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
9640 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
9641 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
9642 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
9643
9644 *Steve Henson*
9645
9646 * Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
9647 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
9648 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
9649 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
9650 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
9651
9652 *Steve Henson*
9653
9654 * Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
9655 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
9656 you can do:
9657
9658 openssl sha256 foo
9659
9660 as well as:
9661
9662 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
9663
9664 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
9665
9666 *Steve Henson*
9667
9668 * Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
9669
9670 *Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>*
9671
9672 * Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
9673
9674 *Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson*
9675
9676 * Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
9677 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
9678 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
9679 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
9680 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
9681
9682 *Steve Henson*
9683
9684 * Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
9685 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
9686 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
9687
9688 *Steve Henson*
9689
9690 * Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
9691 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
9692
9693 *Steve Henson*
9694
9695 * Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
9696
9697 *Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>*
9698
9699 * Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
9700 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
9701
9702 *Steve Henson*
9703
9704 * Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
9705
9706 *Ben Laurie*
9707
9708 * Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
9709 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
9710 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
9711 CONF_VALUE.
9712
9713 *Ben Laurie*
9714
9715 * New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
9716 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
9717 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
9718 as the year 2038 bug. New `*_adj()` functions for ASN1 time structures
9719 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
9720 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
9721
9722 *Steve Henson*
9723
9724 * Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
9725 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
9726
9727 This work was sponsored by Google.
9728
9729 *Steve Henson*
9730
9731 * Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
9732 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
9733 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
9734 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
9735 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
9736 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
9737 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
9738 default.
9739
9740 This work was sponsored by Google.
9741
9742 *Steve Henson*
9743
9744 * Support for freshest CRL extension.
9745
9746 This work was sponsored by Google.
9747
9748 *Steve Henson*
9749
9750 * Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
9751 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
9752 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
9753 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
9754
9755 This work was sponsored by Google.
9756
9757 *Steve Henson*
9758
9759 * Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
9760 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
9761 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
9762 CRL functionality in future.
9763
9764 This work was sponsored by Google.
9765
9766 *Steve Henson*
9767
9768 * Add support for policy mappings extension.
9769
9770 This work was sponsored by Google.
9771
9772 *Steve Henson*
9773
9774 * Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
9775 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
9776
9777 This work was sponsored by Google.
9778
9779 *Steve Henson*
9780
9781 * Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
9782 and URI types are currently supported.
9783
9784 This work was sponsored by Google.
9785
9786 *Steve Henson*
9787
9788 * To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
9789 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
9790 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
9791 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
9792 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
9793 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
9794 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
9795 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
9796
9797 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
9798 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
9799 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
9800
9801 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
9802 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
9803 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
9804 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
9805
9806 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
9807 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
9808 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
9809 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
9810 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
9811 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
9812 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
9813 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
9814 of &errno.)
9815
9816 *Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller*
9817
9818 * Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
9819 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
9820 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
9821
9822 This work was sponsored by Google.
9823
9824 *Steve Henson*
9825
9826 * Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
9827
9828 *Ben Laurie*
9829
9830 * Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
9831 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
9832 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
9833
9834 *Ben Laurie*
9835
9836 * Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
9837 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
9838
9839 *Nick Mathewson*
9840
9841 * Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
9842 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
9843
9844 *Ben Laurie*
9845
9846 * Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
9847 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
9848 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
9849 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
9850 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
9851 content types and variants.
9852
9853 *Steve Henson*
9854
9855 * Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
9856
9857 *Steve Henson*
9858
9859 * Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
9860 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
9861 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
9862 files from the associated perl scripts.
9863
9864 *Steve Henson*
9865
9866 * Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
9867 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
9868
9869 *Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>*
9870
9871 * s390x assembler pack.
9872
9873 *Andy Polyakov*
9874
9875 * ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
9876 "family."
9877
9878 *Andy Polyakov*
9879
9880 * Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
9881 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
9882 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
9883 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
9884 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
9885 to use. For example, specify an option
9886
9887 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
9888
9889 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
9890 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
9891 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
9892 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
9893 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
9894 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
9895
9896 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
9897 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
9898 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
9899 return non-zero for success.
9900
9901 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
9902 by using
9903
9904 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
9905 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
9906
9907 where
9908
9909 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
9910 void *arg;
9911
9912 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
9913 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
9914 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
9915 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
9916 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
9917 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
9918 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
9919 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
9920 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
9921
9922 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
9923 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
9924 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
9925 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
9926 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
9927 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
9928
9929 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
9930 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
9931 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
9932 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
9933 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
9934 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
9935
9936 *Bodo Moeller*
9937
9938 * Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
9939 MAC.
9940
9941 *Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>*
9942
9943 * Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
9944 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
9945 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
9946 supported.
9947
9948 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
9949 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
9950 SSL_SESSION.
9951
9952 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
9953 protection in servers so again support should be possible
9954 with no application modification.
9955
9956 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
9957 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
9958
9959 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
9960 or server extensions to be examined.
9961
9962 This work was sponsored by Google.
9963
9964 *Steve Henson*
9965
9966 * Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
9967 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
9968
9969 *Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson*
9970
9971 * Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
9972 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
9973 ciphersuite support.
9974
9975 *Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson*
9976
9977 * Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
9978 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
9979 to output in BER and PEM format.
9980
9981 *Steve Henson*
9982
9983 * Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
9984 allows HMAC to be handled via the `EVP_DigestSign*()` interface. The
9985 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
9986 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
9987 -macopt options to dgst utility.
9988
9989 *Steve Henson*
9990
9991 * New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
9992 `EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*`. These two changes make it possible to use
9993 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
9994 utility.
9995
9996 *Steve Henson*
9997
9998 * Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
9999 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
10000 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
10001 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
10002 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
10003 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
10004 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
10005 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
10006 enabled again.
10007
10008 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
10009 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
10010 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
10011 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
10012
10013 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
10014 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
10015 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
10016 the default order.
10017
10018 *Bodo Moeller*
10019
10020 * Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
10021 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
10022 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
10023 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
10024 remains equivalent to `"AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH"`.
10025 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
10026 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
10027 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
10028
10029 *Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni*
10030
10031 * Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
10032 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
10033 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
10034 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
10035 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
10036 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
10037 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
10038 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
10039 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
10040 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
10041 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
10042 kinds of kludges.
10043
10044 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
10045 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
10046 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
10047
10048 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
10049 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
10050 "CAMELLIA256".
10051
10052 *Bodo Moeller*
10053
10054 * Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
10055 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
10056 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
10057
10058 *Nils Larsch*
10059
10060 * Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
10061 it yet and it is largely untested.
10062
10063 *Steve Henson*
10064
10065 * Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
10066
10067 *Nils Larsch*
10068
10069 * Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
10070 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
10071 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
10072
10073 *Steve Henson*
10074
10075 * Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
10076
10077 *Andy Polyakov*
10078
10079 * Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
10080 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
10081 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
10082 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
10083
10084 *Steve Henson*
10085
10086 * Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
10087 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
10088 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
10089 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
10090 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
10091
10092 *Steve Henson*
10093
10094 * GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
10095 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
10096
10097 *Cryptocom*
10098
10099 * Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
10100 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
10101 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
10102 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
10103
10104 *Steve Henson*
10105
10106 * New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
10107 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
10108 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
10109 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
10110
10111 *Steve Henson*
10112
10113 * Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
10114 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
10115
10116 *Steve Henson*
10117
10118 * New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
10119 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
10120 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
10121 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
10122
10123 *Steve Henson*
10124
10125 * Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
10126 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
10127 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
10128
10129 *Steve Henson*
10130
10131 * Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
10132 utility.
10133
10134 *Steve Henson*
10135
10136 * Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
10137 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
10138
10139 *Steve Henson*
10140
10141 * During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
10142 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
10143 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
10144 if necessary.
10145
10146 *Steve Henson*
10147
10148 * New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
10149 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
10150 to free up any added signature OIDs.
10151
10152 *Steve Henson*
10153
10154 * New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
10155 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
10156 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
10157 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
10158
10159 *Steve Henson*
10160
10161 * Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
10162 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
10163 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
10164 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
10165 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
10166 the array representation useful in a more general context.
10167
10168 *Douglas Stebila*
10169
10170 * Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
10171 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
10172 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
10173 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
10174 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
10175
10176 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
10177 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
10178 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
10179 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
10180 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
10181 protocol).
10182
10183 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
10184 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
10185 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
10186 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
10187
10188 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
10189 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
10190 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
10191 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
10192 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
10193
10194 aECDH - ECDH cert
10195 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
10196 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
10197
10198 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
10199 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
10200
10201 *Bodo Moeller*
10202
10203 * Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
10204 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
10205
10206 *Steve Henson*
10207
10208 * Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
10209 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
10210
10211 *Steve Henson*
10212
10213 * Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
10214 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
10215 functional reference processing.
10216
10217 *Steve Henson*
10218
10219 * New functions `EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*`. These are enhanced versions of
10220 `EVP_{Sign,Verify}*` which allow an application to customise the signature
10221 process.
10222
10223 *Steve Henson*
10224
10225 * New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
10226 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
10227 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
10228
10229 *Steve Henson*
10230
10231 * Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
10232 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
10233 application to support multiple signers.
10234
10235 *Steve Henson*
10236
10237 * New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
10238 digest MAC.
10239
10240 *Steve Henson*
10241
10242 * Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
10243 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
10244 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
10245 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
10246 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
10247
10248 *Steve Henson*
10249
10250 * Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
10251 new API.
10252
10253 *Steve Henson*
10254
10255 * Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
10256 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
10257 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
10258 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
10259 a no op.
10260
10261 *Steve Henson*
10262
10263 * Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
10264 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
10265 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
10266 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
10267 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
10268 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
10269 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
10270 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
10271
10272 *Steve Henson*
10273
10274 * Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
10275 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
10276 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
10277 between digests and public key types.
10278
10279 *Steve Henson*
10280
10281 * Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
10282 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
10283 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
10284 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
10285
10286 *Steve Henson*
10287
10288 * Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
10289 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
10290 key ASN1 method.
10291
10292 *Steve Henson*
10293
10294 * Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
10295
10296 *Steve Henson*
10297
10298 * Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
10299 pkeyutl.
10300
10301 *Steve Henson*
10302
10303 * Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
10304 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
10305 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
10306 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
10307 pkey, genpkey.
10308
10309 *Steve Henson*
10310
10311 * BeOS support.
10312
10313 *Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>*
10314
10315 * New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
10316 manual pages.
10317
10318 *Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>*
10319
10320 * New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
10321 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
10322 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
10323 functionality for RSA.
10324
10325 *Steve Henson*
10326
10327 * Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
10328 functions `EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}` have been renamed to
10329 `EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old`.
10330
10331 *Steve Henson*
10332
10333 * Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
10334 key API, doesn't do much yet.
10335
10336 *Steve Henson*
10337
10338 * New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
10339 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
10340 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
10341
10342 *Steve Henson*
10343
10344 * Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
10345 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
10346
10347 *Douglas Stebila*
10348
10349 * Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
10350 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
10351
10352 *Steve Henson*
10353
10354 * New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
10355 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
10356 type.
10357
10358 *Steve Henson*
10359
10360 * Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
10361 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
10362 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
10363 structure.
10364
10365 *Steve Henson*
10366
10367 * Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
10368 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
10369 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
10370 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
10371 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
10372 of public and private key structures.
10373
10374 *Steve Henson*
10375
10376 * Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
10377 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
10378
10379 *Douglas Stebila*
10380
10381 * Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
10382 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
10383 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
10384
10385 New ciphersuites:
10386 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
10387 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
10388
10389 New functions:
10390 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
10391 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
10392 SSL_get_psk_identity
10393 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
10394
10395 *Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation*
10396
10397 * Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
10398 and response verification functionality.
10399
10400 *Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project*
10401
10402 * Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
10403 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
10404 have new members for a hostname. The SSL data structure has an
10405 additional member `SSL_CTX *initial_ctx` so that new sessions can be
10406 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
10407 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
10408 server_name extension.
10409
10410 New functions (subject to change):
10411
10412 SSL_get_servername()
10413 SSL_get_servername_type()
10414 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
10415
10416 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
10417
10418 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
10419 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
10420 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
10421 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
10422 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
10423
10424 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
10425
10426 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
10427 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
10428 testing the HostName extension for a specific single hostname ('-cert'
10429 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
10430 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
10431 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
10432 option.
10433
10434 *Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou*
10435
10436 * Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
10437
10438 *Andy Polyakov*
10439
10440 * BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
10441 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
10442 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
10443 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
10444 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
10445
10446 *Andy Polyakov*
10447
10448 * Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
10449 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
10450 macro.
10451
10452 *Bodo Moeller*
10453
10454 * New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
10455 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
10456 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
10457 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
10458
10459 *Andy Polyakov*
10460
10461 * New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
10462 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
10463 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
10464 using the maximum available value.
10465
10466 *Steve Henson*
10467
10468 * New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
10469 in addition to the text details.
10470
10471 *Bodo Moeller*
10472
10473 * Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
10474 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
10475 handle several customised structures at all.
10476
10477 *Steve Henson*
10478
10479 * Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
10480 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
10481 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
10482
10483 *Steve Henson*
10484
10485 * Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
10486
10487 *Steve Henson*
10488
10489 * Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
10490 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
10491 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
10492
10493 *Steve Henson*
10494
10495 * Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
10496 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
10497 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
10498
10499 *Nils Larsch*
10500
10501 * Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
10502 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
10503 all fields.
10504
10505 *Steve Henson*
10506
10507 * Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
10508
10509 *Steve Henson*
10510
10511 * Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
10512
10513 *NTT*
10514
10515 OpenSSL 0.9.x
10516 -------------
10517
10518 ### Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
10519
10520 * When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
10521 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
10522 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
10523 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
10524 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
10525 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
10526 protection is active. ([CVE-2010-0740])
10527
10528 *Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>*
10529
10530 * Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
10531 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
10532
10533 *Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>*
10534
10535 ### Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
10536
10537 * Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. ([CVE-2009-3245])
10538
10539 *Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta*
10540
10541 * Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
10542 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
10543
10544 *Bodo Moeller*
10545
10546 * On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
10547 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
10548 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
10549
10550 *Steve Henson*
10551
10552 * The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
10553 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
10554 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
10555 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
10556 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
10557 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
10558
10559 *Steve Henson*
10560
10561 * Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
10562 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
10563 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
10564
10565 *Steve Henson*
10566
10567 * Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
10568 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
10569 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
10570 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
10571 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
10572 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
10573 CVE-2009-4355.
10574
10575 *Steve Henson*
10576
10577 * Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
10578 change when encrypting or decrypting.
10579
10580 *Bodo Moeller*
10581
10582 * Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
10583 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
10584 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
10585
10586 *Steve Henson*
10587
10588 * Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
10589
10590 *Steve Henson*
10591
10592 * If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
10593 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
10594 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
10595 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
10596 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
10597 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
10598 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
10599 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
10600 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
10601
10602 *Steve Henson*
10603
10604 * Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
10605 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
10606 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
10607
10608 *Steve Henson*
10609
10610 * Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
10611 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
10612
10613 *Steve Henson*
10614
10615 * Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
10616 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
10617 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
10618 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
10619 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
10620 know what you are doing.
10621
10622 *Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson*
10623
10624 * Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
10625 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
10626 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
10627 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
10628 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
10629 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
10630 the handshake.
10631
10632 *Steve Henson*
10633
10634 * The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
10635 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
10636 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
10637 correctly.
10638
10639 *Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>*
10640
10641 * Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
10642 warnings in other configurations.
10643
10644 *Steve Henson*
10645
10646 * Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
10647 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
10648 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
10649 systems need.
10650
10651 *Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley*
10652
10653 * Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
10654 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
10655
10656 *Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky*
10657
10658 * Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
10659 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
10660 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
10661 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
10662
10663 *Steve Henson*
10664
10665 * Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
10666 and restored.
10667
10668 *Steve Henson*
10669
10670 * Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
10671 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
10672 clash.
10673
10674 *Guenter <lists@gknw.net>*
10675
10676 * Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
10677 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
10678 other than a simple chain.
10679
10680 *David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson*
10681
10682 * Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
10683 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
10684 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
10685 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
10686
10687 *Steve Henson*
10688
10689 * In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
10690 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
10691 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
10692 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
10693 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
10694 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
10695 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
10696 buffered. ([CVE-2009-1378])
10697
10698 *Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz*
10699
10700 * Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
10701 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
10702 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
10703 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
10704 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
10705 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
10706 ([CVE-2009-1377])
10707
10708 *Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz*
10709
10710 * Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
10711 parent structure is freed. ([CVE-2009-1379])
10712
10713 *Daniel Mentz*
10714
10715 * Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
10716
10717 *Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>*
10718
10719 * Add `2.5.4.*` OIDs
10720
10721 *Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>*
10722
10723 ### Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
10724
10725 * Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
10726 problem ([CVE-2009-3555]) at the cost of breaking all
10727 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
10728 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
10729 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
10730 you're doing.
10731
10732 *Ben Laurie*
10733
10734 ### Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
10735
10736 * Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
10737 underlying code. If `sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long)` this can result in
10738 zeroing past the valid field. ([CVE-2009-0789])
10739
10740 *Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>*
10741
10742 * Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
10743 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
10744 appear to verify correctly. ([CVE-2009-0591])
10745
10746 *Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>*
10747
10748 * Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
10749 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
10750 a legal length. ([CVE-2009-0590])
10751
10752 *Steve Henson*
10753
10754 * Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
10755 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
10756 level.
10757
10758 *Steve Henson*
10759
10760 * Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
10761 to handle some structures.
10762
10763 *Steve Henson*
10764
10765 * Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
10766 for a '\n'
10767
10768 *Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>*
10769
10770 * New -hex option for openssl rand.
10771
10772 *Matthieu Herrb*
10773
10774 * Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
10775
10776 *Steve Henson*
10777
10778 * Support NumericString type for name components.
10779
10780 *Steve Henson*
10781
10782 * Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
10783 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
10784 chosen compiler.
10785
10786 *Ben Laurie*
10787
10788 ### Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
10789
10790 * Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
10791 ([CVE-2008-5077]).
10792
10793 *Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team*
10794
10795 * Enable TLS extensions by default.
10796
10797 *Ben Laurie*
10798
10799 * Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
10800 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
10801 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
10802
10803 *Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>*
10804
10805 * Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
10806
10807 *Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger*
10808
10809 * Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
10810 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
10811
10812 *Bodo Moeller*
10813
10814 * Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
10815 s_client and s_server.
10816
10817 *Ben Laurie*
10818
10819 * Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
10820
10821 *Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>*
10822
10823 * Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
10824
10825 *Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>*
10826
10827 * Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
10828 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
10829 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
10830 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
10831 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
10832
10833 *Bodo Moeller*
10834
10835 ### Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
10836
10837 * Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
10838 ChangeCipherSpec as first record ([CVE-2009-1386]).
10839
10840 *PR #1679*
10841
10842 * Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
10843 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be `..._ST_SW_SRVR_...`).
10844
10845 *Nagendra Modadugu*
10846
10847 * The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
10848 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
10849 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
10850 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
10851
10852 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
10853 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
10854
10855 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder*
10856
10857 * Various precautionary measures:
10858
10859 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
10860
10861 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
10862 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
10863 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
10864
10865 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
10866 outside the expected range.
10867
10868 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
10869 builds.
10870
10871 *Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller*
10872
10873 * Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
10874 the load fails. Useful for distros.
10875
10876 *Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team*
10877
10878 * Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
10879
10880 *Steve Henson*
10881
10882 * Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
10883
10884 *Huang Ying*
10885
10886 * Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
10887
10888 This work was sponsored by Logica.
10889
10890 *Steve Henson*
10891
10892 * Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
10893 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
10894 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
10895
10896 This work was sponsored by Logica.
10897
10898 *Steve Henson*
10899
10900 * Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
10901 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
10902 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
10903 files.
10904

10906
10907 ### Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
10908
10909 * Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
10910 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
10911 Codenomicon TLS test suite ([CVE-2008-1672])
10912
10913 *Steve Henson, Mark Cox*
10914
10915 * Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
10916 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite ([CVE-2008-0891])
10917
10918 *Joe Orton*
10919
10920 * Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
10921
10922 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
10923 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
10924
10925 *Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo*
10926
10927 * Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
10928
10929 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
10930 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
10931 Therefore, it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
10932 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
10933
10934 *Lutz Jaenicke*
10935
10936 * RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
10937 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
10938 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
10939 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
10940 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
10941 invalid read after the end of 'db').
10942
10943 *Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>*
10944
10945 * Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
10946
10947 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
10948 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
10949 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
10950 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
10951 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
10952
10953 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
10954 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
10955
10956 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
10957 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
10958 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
10959 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
10960 e.g. x86_64, try `-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD`.)
10961
10962 *Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)*
10963
10964 * Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
10965 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
10966 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
10967 sets may exist with different names.
10968
10969 *Steve Henson*
10970
10971 * Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
10972 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
10973 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
10974 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
10975 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
10976 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
10977 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
10978 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
10979 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
10980 implementation.
10981
10982 *Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)*
10983
10984 * Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
10985 implementation in the following ways:
10986
10987 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
10988 hard coded.
10989
10990 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
10991 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
10992 ignored for embedded content.
10993
10994 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
10995 with the enable-cms configuration option.
10996
10997 *Steve Henson*
10998
10999 * Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
11000 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
11001 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
11002
11003 *Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>*
11004
11005 * Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
11006 uncompresses any data passed through it.
11007
11008 *Steve Henson*
11009
11010 * Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
11011 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
11012
11013 *Steve Henson*
11014
11015 * Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
11016 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
11017 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
11018 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
11019 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
11020 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
11021 data.
11022
11023 *Steve Henson*
11024
11025 * Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
11026 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
11027
11028 *Bodo Moeller (Google)*
11029
11030 * Netware support:
11031
11032 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
11033 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
11034 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
11035 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
11036 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
11037 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
11038 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
11039 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
11040 platform
11041 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
11042 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
11043 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
11044 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
11045 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
11046 - fixed order of includes in `apps/ocsp.c` so that `e_os.h` settings apply
11047
11048 *Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>*
11049
11050 * Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
11051 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
11052 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
11053 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
11054 to s_client and s_server.
11055
11056 *Steve Henson*
11057
11058 ### Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
11059
11060 * Fix various bugs:
11061 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
11062 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
11063 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
11064 + Fix ia64 assembler code
11065
11066 *Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson*
11067
11068 ### Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
11069
11070 * DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
11071 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
11072 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
11073 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
11074 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
11075 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
11076 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
11077 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
11078
11079 *Andy Polyakov*
11080
11081 * Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
11082 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
11083 *Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
11084 Steve Henson*
11085
11086 * Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
11087 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
11088 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
11089 supported.
11090
11091 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
11092 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
11093 SSL_SESSION.
11094
11095 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
11096 protection in servers so again support should be possible
11097 with no application modification.
11098
11099 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
11100 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
11101
11102 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
11103 or server extensions to be examined.
11104
11105 This work was sponsored by Google.
11106
11107 *Steve Henson*
11108
11109 * Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
11110 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
11111 have new members for a hostname. The SSL data structure has an
11112 additional member `SSL_CTX *initial_ctx` so that new sessions can be
11113 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
11114 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
11115 server_name extension.
11116
11117 New functions (subject to change):
11118
11119 SSL_get_servername()
11120 SSL_get_servername_type()
11121 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
11122
11123 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
11124
11125 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
11126 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
11127 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
11128 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
11129 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
11130
11131 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
11132
11133 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
11134 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
11135 testing the HostName extension for a specific single hostname ('-cert'
11136 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
11137 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
11138 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
11139 option.
11140
11141 *Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson*
11142
11143 * Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
11144
11145 *Steve Henson*
11146
11147 * Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
11148
11149 *Andy Polyakov*
11150
11151 * Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
11152 (which previously caused an internal error).
11153
11154 *Bodo Moeller*
11155
11156 * Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
11157
11158 *Ben Laurie*
11159
11160 * AES IGE mode speedup.
11161
11162 *Dean Gaudet (Google)*
11163
11164 * Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
11165 <http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp>) and
11166 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
11167
11168 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
11169 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
11170 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
11171 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
11172
11173 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
11174 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
11175 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
11176
11177 *KISA, Bodo Moeller*
11178
11179 * Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
11180 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
11181 information. For detailed background information, see
11182 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039> (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
11183 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
11184 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
11185 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
11186 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
11187 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
11188 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
11189 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
11190 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
11191 remove a conditional branch.
11192
11193 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
11194 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
11195 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
11196 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
11197 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
11198 remains as a deprecated alias.
11199
11200 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
11201 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
11202 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
11203 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
11204
11205 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
11206 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
11207 modulus. This means that the previous `BIGNUM *m` argument to
11208 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
11209 essentially becomes `const BIGNUM *m`, although we can't actually
11210 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
11211 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
11212 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
11213
11214 *Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)*
11215
11216 * In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
11217 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
11218 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
11219 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
11220 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
11221 with applications using a single external cache for quite
11222 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
11223 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
11224 in a different context.
11225
11226 *Bodo Moeller*
11227
11228 * Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
11229 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
11230 authentication-only ciphersuites.
11231
11232 *Bodo Moeller*
11233
11234 * Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
11235 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
11236 ([CVE-2007-5135]) [Ben Laurie]
11237
11238 ### Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
11239
11240 * Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
11241 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
11242 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
11243 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
11244 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
11245
11246 *Victor Duchovni*
11247
11248 * Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
11249 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
11250 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
11251 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
11252 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
11253 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
11254
11255 *Bodo Moeller*
11256
11257 * Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
11258 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
11259 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
11260 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
11261 message has informed the client about his choice.)
11262
11263 *Bodo Moeller*
11264
11265 * Add RFC 3779 support.
11266
11267 *Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie*
11268
11269 * Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
11270 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
11271 Improve header file function name parsing.
11272
11273 *Steve Henson*
11274
11275 * extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
11276 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
11277
11278 *Goetz Babin-Ebell*
11279
11280 ### Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
11281
11282 * Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
11283 cause a denial of service. ([CVE-2006-2940])
11284
11285 *Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller*
11286
11287 * Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
11288 in a denial of service. ([CVE-2006-2937]) [Steve Henson]
11289
11290 * Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
11291 ([CVE-2006-3738]) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
11292
11293 * Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
11294 malicious SSLv2 server. ([CVE-2006-4343])
11295
11296 *Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team*
11297
11298 * Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
11299 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
11300 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
11301 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
11302 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
11303 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
11304 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
11305 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
11306 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
11307
11308 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
11309 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
11310 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
11311 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
11312 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
11313
11314 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
11315 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
11316 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
11317 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
11318 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
11319 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
11320 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
11321 multiple values to extend the available space.
11322
11323 *Bodo Moeller*
11324
11325 ### Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
11326
11327 * Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
11328 ([CVE-2006-4339]) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
11329
11330 * Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
11331
11332 *Ben Laurie*
11333
11334 * Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
11335 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
11336 undesirable limitations.
11337
11338 *Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller*
11339
11340 * Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
11341 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
11342 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
11343 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
11344 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
11345 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
11346 to avoid potential handshake problems.
11347
11348 *Bodo Moeller*
11349
11350 * Disable rogue ciphersuites:
11351
11352 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
11353 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
11354 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
11355
11356 The latter two were purportedly from
11357 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
11358 appear there.
11359
11360 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
11361 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
11362 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
11363
11364 *Bodo Moeller*
11365
11366 * Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
11367 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
11368
11369 *Bodo Moeller*
11370
11371 * Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
11372 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
11373 (see <http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html>).
11374 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
11375
11376 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
11377 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
11378 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
11379
11380 *NTT*
11381
11382 * Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
11383 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
11384 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
11385 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
11386 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
11387 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
11388
11389 *Steve Henson*
11390
11391 ### Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
11392
11393 * When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
11394 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
11395
11396 *Steve Henson*
11397
11398 * Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
11399
11400 *Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>*
11401
11402 * Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
11403 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
11404 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
11405 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
11406
11407 *Douglas Stebila*
11408
11409 * New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
11410 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
11411
11412 *Steve Henson*
11413
11414 * Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
11415 "zlib1.dll" and use the default `__cdecl` calling convention on Win32
11416 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
11417 <http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt>
11418 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
11419 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
11420 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
11421 can't be loaded.
11422
11423 *Steve Henson*
11424
11425 * Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
11426 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
11427 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
11428 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
11429
11430 *Steve Henson*
11431
11432 * Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
11433 under VC++ build system.
11434
11435 *Steve Henson*
11436
11437 * Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
11438 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
11439
11440 *Richard Levitte*
11441
11442 ### Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
11443
11444 * Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
11445 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
11446 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
11447 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
11448 idea. ([CVE-2005-2969])
11449
11450 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
11451 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
11452 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)*
11453
11454 * Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
11455
11456 *Steve Henson*
11457
11458 * Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
11459 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
11460
11461 *Nils Larsch*
11462
11463 * Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
11464
11465 *Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie*
11466
11467 * Add functions for well-known primes.
11468
11469 *Nick Mathewson*
11470
11471 * Extended Windows CE support.
11472
11473 *Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov*
11474
11475 * Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
11476 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
11477
11478 *Steve Henson*
11479
11480 * Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
11481 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
11482 smime utility.
11483
11484 *Steve Henson*
11485
11486 ### Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
11487
11488 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
11489 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
11490
11491 * Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
11492
11493 *Richard Levitte*
11494
11495 * Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
11496 key into the same file any more.
11497
11498 *Richard Levitte*
11499
11500 * Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
11501
11502 *Andy Polyakov*
11503
11504 * Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
11505
11506 *Stefan <stf@udoma.org*
11507
11508 * Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
11509 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
11510
11511 *Richard Levitte*
11512
11513 * Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
11514 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
11515 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
11516 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
11517 this only applies when building 'shared'.
11518
11519 *Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe*
11520
11521 * Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
11522 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
11523 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
11524
11525 *Steve Henson*
11526
11527 * Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
11528 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
11529 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
11530 - add new function for parameter creation
11531 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
11532 BN_BLINDING parameters
11533 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
11534 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
11535 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
11536 threads.
11537
11538 *Nils Larsch*
11539
11540 * Add support for DTLS.
11541
11542 *Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie*
11543
11544 * Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
11545 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
11546
11547 *Walter Goulet*
11548
11549 * Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
11550 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
11551
11552 *Nils Larsch*
11553
11554 * Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
11555 the `apps/openssl` commands.
11556
11557 *Nils Larsch*
11558
11559 * Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
11560 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
11561 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
11562
11563 *Ben Laurie*
11564
11565 * Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
11566 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
11567
11568 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
11569 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
11570
11571 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
11572 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
11573 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
11574 avoid this algorithm.)
11575
11576 *Bodo Moeller*
11577
11578 * Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
11579 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
11580 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
11581
11582 *Richard Levitte*
11583
11584 * RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
11585 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
11586
11587 *Andy Polyakov*
11588
11589 * New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
11590 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
11591 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
11592 pod file:
11593
11594 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
11595
11596 The blank line is mandatory.
11597
11598 *Steve Henson*
11599
11600 * New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
11601 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
11602 sources.
11603
11604 *Steve Henson*
11605
11606 * New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
11607 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
11608
11609 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
11610 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
11611 to support policy checking and print out.
11612
11613 *Steve Henson*
11614
11615 * Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
11616 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
11617 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
11618
11619 *Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov*
11620
11621 * Deprecate `BN_[get|set]_params()` functions (they were ignored internally).
11622
11623 *Geoff Thorpe*
11624
11625 * New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
11626
11627 *Andy Polyakov and a number of other people*
11628
11629 * Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
11630 implementation contributed by IBM.
11631
11632 *Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov*
11633
11634 * The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
11635 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
11636 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
11637
11638 *Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe*
11639
11640 * Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
11641 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
11642
11643 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
11644 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
11645 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
11646 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
11647 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
11648 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
11649
11650 *Steve Henson*
11651
11652 * Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
11653 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
11654 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
11655 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
11656 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
11657 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
11658 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
11659
11660 *Geoff Thorpe*
11661
11662 * New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
11663
11664 *Steve Henson*
11665
11666 * Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
11667 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
11668 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
11669 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
11670 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
11671 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
11672 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
11673 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
11674
11675 *Steve Henson*
11676
11677 * Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
11678 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
11679 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
11680 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
11681
11682 *Steve Henson*
11683
11684 * Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
11685 syntax:
11686
11687 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
11688
11689 *Steve Henson*
11690
11691 * Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
11692 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
11693 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
11694 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
11695 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
11696 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
11697 BN_CTX's "bundling".
11698
11699 *Geoff Thorpe*
11700
11701 * Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
11702 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
11703
11704 *Geoff Thorpe*
11705
11706 * Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
11707 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
11708 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
11709
11710 *Steve Henson*
11711
11712 * bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
11713 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
11714 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
11715 below).
11716
11717 *Geoff Thorpe*
11718
11719 * Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
11720 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
11721
11722 *Richard Levitte*
11723
11724 * BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
11725 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
11726 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
11727 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
11728
11729 *Geoff Thorpe*
11730
11731 * BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
11732 initialised value as BN_new().
11733
11734 *Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller*
11735
11736 * Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
11737
11738 *Steve Henson*
11739
11740 * An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
11741 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
11742 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
11743 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
11744 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
11745 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
11746 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
11747 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
11748 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
11749 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
11750 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
11751 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
11752 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
11753 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
11754
11755 *Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller*
11756
11757 * BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
11758 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
11759 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
11760 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
11761
11762 *Geoff Thorpe*
11763
11764 * Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
11765 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
11766 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
11767 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
11768 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
11769 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
11770 objects as "const" and the `lh_doall[_arg]` callback wrappers are not
11771 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
11772 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
11773
11774 *Geoff Thorpe*
11775
11776 * The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
11777 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
11778 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
11779 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from
11780 `char *`. This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and
11781 `ms_time_***`
11782 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
11783 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
11784
11785 *Geoff Thorpe*
11786
11787 * Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
11788 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
11789 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
11790 these have been updated also.
11791
11792 *Geoff Thorpe*
11793
11794 * Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
11795 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
11796 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
11797 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
11798 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
11799 functions.
11800
11801 *Steve Henson*
11802
11803 * New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
11804 structure of type "other".
11805
11806 *Steve Henson*
11807
11808 * Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
11809 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
11810 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
11811 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
11812 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
11813 situation in the script.
11814
11815 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
11816
11817 * Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
11818 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
11819 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
11820 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
11821 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
11822 used as premaster secret.
11823
11824 *Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
11825
11826 * Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
11827 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
11828
11829 *Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
11830
11831 * Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
11832
11833 *Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte*
11834
11835 * Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
11836 control of the error stack.
11837
11838 *Richard Levitte*
11839
11840 * Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
11841
11842 *Richard Levitte*
11843
11844 * Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
11845 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
11846 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
11847 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
11848
11849 *Richard Levitte*
11850
11851 * Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
11852 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
11853 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
11854
11855 *Richard Levitte*
11856
11857 * Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
11858 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
11859 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
11860 a memory area.
11861
11862 *Richard Levitte*
11863
11864 * Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
11865 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
11866 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
11867 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
11868
11869 *Richard Levitte*
11870
11871 * Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
11872 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
11873 the following flags are defined:
11874
11875 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
11876 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
11877 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
11878 number.
11879
11880 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
11881 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
11882 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
11883 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
11884 returns zero.
11885
11886 *Richard Levitte*
11887
11888 * Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
11889 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
11890 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
11891 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
11892 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
11893
11894 *Richard Levitte*
11895
11896 * Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
11897 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
11898 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
11899
11900 *Richard Levitte*
11901
11902 * Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
11903 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
11904 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
11905 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
11906 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
11907 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
11908
11909 *Richard Levitte*
11910
11911 * Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
11912 req and dirName.
11913
11914 *Steve Henson*
11915
11916 * Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
11917
11918 *Steve Henson*
11919
11920 * Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
11921
11922 *Steve Henson*
11923
11924 * Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
11925
11926 *Steve Henson*
11927
11928 * Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
11929 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
11930 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
11931 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
11932 default implementation more easily.
11933
11934 *Geoff Thorpe*
11935
11936 * Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
11937 in config files.
11938
11939 *Steve Henson*
11940
11941 * Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
11942 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
11943
11944 *Richard Levitte*
11945
11946 * Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
11947 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
11948 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
11949 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
11950
11951 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
11952 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
11953 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
11954 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
11955
11956 *Steve Henson*
11957
11958 * Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
11959 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
11960 to do it.
11961
11962 *Richard Levitte*
11963
11964 * In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
11965 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
11966 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
11967 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
11968 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
11969 scalar * generator).
11970
11971 *Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller*
11972
11973 * IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
11974 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
11975 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
11976 correctly.
11977
11978 *Steve Henson*
11979
11980 * Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
11981 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
11982 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
11983 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
11984 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
11985 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
11986 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
11987 linker additions, eg;
11988 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
11989
11990 *Geoff Thorpe*
11991
11992 * "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
11993 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
11994 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
11995
11996 *Geoff Thorpe*
11997
11998 * ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
11999 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
12000 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
12001 via PR#459)
12002
12003 *Lutz Jaenicke*
12004
12005 * Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
12006 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
12007 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
12008 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
12009
12010 *Geoff Thorpe*
12011
12012 * Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
12013 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
12014 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have `_ex`
12015 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
12016 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
12017 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
12018 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
12019 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
12020 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
12021 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
12022
12023 Example for using the new callback interface:
12024
12025 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
12026 void *my_arg = ...;
12027 BN_GENCB my_cb;
12028
12029 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
12030
12031 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
12032 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
12033 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
12034 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
12035 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
12036 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
12037 */
12038
12039 *Geoff Thorpe*
12040
12041 * Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
12042 available to TLS with the number defined in
12043 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
12044
12045 *Richard Levitte*
12046
12047 * Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
12048 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
12049
12050 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
12051 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
12052 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
12053 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
12054
12055 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
12056 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
12057
12058 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
12059 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
12060 well.
12061
12062 *Richard Levitte*
12063
12064 * Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
12065 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
12066
12067 *Richard Levitte*
12068
12069 * Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
12070 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
12071 and a macro that behave like
12072 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
12073
12074 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
12075
12076 *Nils Larsch*
12077
12078 * Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
12079 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
12080 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
12081 if applicable.
12082
12083 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
12084
12085 * Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
12086
12087 *Bodo Moeller*
12088
12089 * Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
12090 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
12091 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
12092 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
12093 directory engines/.
12094 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
12095 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
12096 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
12097 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
12098 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
12099 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
12100 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
12101
12102 *Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte*
12103
12104 * Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
12105 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
12106
12107 *Richard Levitte*
12108
12109 * Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
12110
12111 *Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>*
12112
12113 * Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
12114 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
12115 files while avoiding the low-level API.
12116
12117 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
12118 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
12119 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
12120 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
12121
12122 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
12123 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
12124 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
12125 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
12126 instead of the low-level API.
12127
12128 *Steve Henson*
12129
12130 * Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
12131 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
12132 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
12133 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
12134 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
12135 PKCS#7 code.
12136
12137 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
12138 down to the template encoder.
12139
12140 *Steve Henson*
12141
12142 * Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
12143 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
12144
12145 *Bodo Moeller*
12146
12147 * Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
12148 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
12149 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
12150
12151 *Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12152
12153 * Add ECDH engine support.
12154
12155 *Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12156
12157 * Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
12158
12159 *Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12160
12161 * Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
12162 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
12163
12164 *Bodo Moeller*
12165
12166 * Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
12167 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
12168 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
12169
12170 *Bodo Moeller*
12171
12172 * Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
12173 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
12174
12175 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12176
12177 * Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
12178 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
12179 New EC_METHOD:
12180
12181 EC_GF2m_simple_method
12182
12183 New API functions:
12184
12185 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
12186 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
12187 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
12188 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
12189 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
12190 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
12191
12192 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
12193 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
12194 enable it).
12195
12196 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
12197 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
12198 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
12199 the above `..._GF2m functions` (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
12200 are essentially identical to their `..._GFp` counterparts.
12201 (For simplicity, the `..._GFp` prefix has been dropped from
12202 various internal method names.)
12203
12204 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
12205 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
12206
12207 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12208
12209 * Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
12210 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
12211
12212 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
12213 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
12214 methods are undefined.
12215
12216 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12217
12218 * New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
12219 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
12220 length of the modulus.
12221
12222 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12223
12224 * New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
12225 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
12226
12227 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12228
12229 * Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
12230 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
12231 used) in the following functions [macros]:
12232
12233 BN_GF2m_add
12234 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
12235 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
12236 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
12237 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
12238 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
12239 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
12240 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
12241 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
12242 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
12243
12244 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
12245 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
12246
12247 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
12248 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
12249 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
12250 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
12251 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
12252 where
12253 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
12254 This applies to the following functions:
12255
12256 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
12257 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
12258 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
12259 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
12260 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
12261 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
12262 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
12263 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
12264 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
12265 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
12266
12267 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
12268
12269 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
12270 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
12271
12272 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
12273
12274 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
12275 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
12276 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
12277 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
12278 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
12279
12280 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
12281
12282 * Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
12283 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
12284
12285 *Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>*
12286
12287 * Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
12288 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
12289
12290 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
12291 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
12292 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
12293 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
12294
12295 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
12296
12297 * Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
12298 functions
12299 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
12300 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
12301 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
12302 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
12303 These control ASN1 encoding details:
12304 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
12305 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
12306 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
12307 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
12308 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
12309 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
12310 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
12311
12312 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
12313 functions
12314 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
12315 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
12316 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
12317 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
12318
12319 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
12320
12321 * Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
12322 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
12323 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
12324
12325 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
12326
12327 * Add functions
12328 EC_POINT_point2bn()
12329 EC_POINT_bn2point()
12330 EC_POINT_point2hex()
12331 EC_POINT_hex2point()
12332 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
12333 EC_POINT_oct2point().
12334
12335 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
12336
12337 * Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
12338 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
12339 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
12340 EC_GROUP_get_order()
12341 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
12342 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
12343 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
12344 adding different types of curves.
12345
12346 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller*
12347
12348 * Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
12349 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
12350 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
12351
12352 *Bodo Moeller*
12353
12354 * Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
12355 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
12356
12357 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
12358 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
12359 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
12360
12361 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
12362
12363 * Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
12364
12365 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
12366 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
12367
12368 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
12369 library. Most notably,
12370 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
12371 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
12372 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
12373 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
12374 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
12375 extracted before the specific public key;
12376 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
12377
12378 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
12379
12380 * Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
12381 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
12382 function
12383 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
12384 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
12385 EC_get_builtin_curves().
12386 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
12387 accessed via
12388 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
12389 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
12390
12391 *Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller*
12392
12393 * Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
12394 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
12395 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
12396 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
12397 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
12398 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
12399 differing sizes.
12400
12401 *Richard Levitte*
12402
12403 ### Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
12404
12405 * Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
12406 sensitive data.
12407
12408 *Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>*
12409
12410 * Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
12411 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
12412 authentication-only ciphersuites.
12413
12414 *Bodo Moeller*
12415
12416 * Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
12417 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
12418 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
12419
12420 *Victor Duchovni*
12421
12422 * Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
12423
12424 *Steve Henson*
12425
12426 * Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
12427 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
12428
12429 *Steve Henson*
12430
12431 * New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
12432 run algorithm test programs.
12433
12434 *Steve Henson*
12435
12436 * Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
12437
12438 *Steve Henson*
12439
12440 * Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
12441 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
12442 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
12443 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
12444 message has informed the client about his choice.)
12445
12446 *Bodo Moeller*
12447
12448 * Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
12449 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
12450
12451 *Steve Henson*
12452
12453 ### Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
12454
12455 * Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
12456 cause a denial of service. ([CVE-2006-2940])
12457
12458 *Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller*
12459
12460 * Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
12461 in a denial of service. ([CVE-2006-2937]) [Steve Henson]
12462
12463 * Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
12464 ([CVE-2006-3738]) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
12465
12466 * Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
12467 malicious SSLv2 server. ([CVE-2006-4343])
12468
12469 *Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team*
12470
12471 * Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
12472 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
12473 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
12474 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
12475 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
12476 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
12477 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
12478
12479 *Bodo Moeller*
12480
12481 ### Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
12482
12483 * Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
12484 ([CVE-2006-4339]) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
12485
12486 * Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
12487 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
12488 undesirable limitations.
12489
12490 *Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller*
12491
12492 * Disable rogue ciphersuites:
12493
12494 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
12495 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
12496 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
12497
12498 The latter two were purportedly from
12499 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
12500 appear there.
12501
12502 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
12503 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
12504 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
12505
12506 *Bodo Moeller*
12507
12508 * Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
12509 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
12510
12511 *Bodo Moeller*
12512
12513 ### Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
12514
12515 * Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
12516 module in FIPS mode.
12517
12518 *Steve Henson*
12519
12520 * Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
12521
12522 *Steve Henson*
12523
12524 * Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
12525 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
12526 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
12527 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
12528
12529 *Steve Henson*
12530
12531 ### Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
12532
12533 * Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
12534 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
12535 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
12536 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
12537 the difference induced by this change.
12538
12539 *Andy Polyakov*
12540
12541 ### Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
12542
12543 * Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
12544 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
12545 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
12546 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
12547 idea. ([CVE-2005-2969])
12548
12549 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
12550 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
12551 Science and Technology [AIST, Japan)]*
12552
12553 * Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
12554 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
12555
12556 *Steve Henson*
12557
12558 * For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
12559 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
12560 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
12561 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
12562 biased k.)
12563
12564 *Bodo Moeller*
12565
12566 * Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
12567 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
12568 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
12569 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
12570 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
12571
12572 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
12573 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
12574 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
12575 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
12576 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
12577 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
12578
12579 *Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller*
12580
12581 * Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
12582 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
12583 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
12584 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
12585 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
12586
12587 *Bodo Moeller*
12588
12589 * Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
12590 clients need.
12591
12592 *Steve Henson*
12593
12594 * New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
12595 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
12596 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
12597
12598 *Steve Henson*
12599
12600 * Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
12601 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
12602 structures constant.
12603
12604 *Steve Henson*
12605
12606 ### Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
12607
12608 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
12609 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
12610
12611 * Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
12612 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
12613 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
12614 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
12615 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
12616 some needed definitions.
12617
12618 *Steve Henson*
12619
12620 * Undo Cygwin change.
12621
12622 *Ulf Möller*
12623
12624 * Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
12625 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
12626 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
12627 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
12628
12629 *Richard Levitte*
12630
12631 ### Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
12632
12633 * Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
12634 server and client random values. Previously
12635 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
12636 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
12637
12638 This change has negligible security impact because:
12639
12640 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
12641 data.
12642
12643 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
12644 handshake.
12645
12646 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
12647 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
12648 values.
12649
12650 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
12651 to our attention.
12652
12653 *Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC*
12654
12655 * Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
12656
12657 *Ulf Möller*
12658
12659 * Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
12660 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
12661
12662 *Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014*
12663
12664 * Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
12665
12666 *Steve Henson*
12667
12668 * Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
12669 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
12670
12671 *Andy Polyakov*
12672
12673 * Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
12674 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
12675
12676 *Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson*
12677
12678 * Add new -passin argument to dgst.
12679
12680 *Steve Henson*
12681
12682 * Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
12683 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
12684 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
12685 certificates.
12686
12687 *Steve Henson*
12688
12689 * Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
12690 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
12691 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
12692 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
12693
12694 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
12695 has chosen to ignore this fault)
12696 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
12697 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
12698 been given)
12699
12700 *Richard Levitte*
12701
12702 ### Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
12703
12704 * Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
12705 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
12706 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
12707 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
12708 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
12709
12710 *Steve Henson*
12711
12712 * Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
12713
12714 *Steve Henson*
12715
12716 * Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
12717
12718 *David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>*
12719
12720 * Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
12721 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
12722 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
12723 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
12724 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
12725 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
12726 rather than being initialized to 1.
12727
12728 *Steve Henson*
12729
12730 ### Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
12731
12732 * Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
12733 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool ([CVE-2004-0079])
12734
12735 *Joe Orton, Steve Henson*
12736
12737 * Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
12738 ([CVE-2004-0112])
12739
12740 *Joe Orton, Steve Henson*
12741
12742 * Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
12743 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
12744 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
12745 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
12746 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
12747 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
12748
12749 *Richard Levitte*
12750
12751 * X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
12752 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
12753 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
12754 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
12755 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
12756 for these cases.
12757
12758 *Steve Henson*
12759
12760 * When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
12761 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
12762 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
12763 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
12764 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
12765
12766 *Steve Henson*
12767
12768 * New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
12769 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
12770 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
12771 < 0.9.7.
12772
12773 *Steve Henson*
12774
12775 * Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
12776
12777 *Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>*
12778
12779 * Use the correct content when signing type "other".
12780
12781 *Steve Henson*
12782
12783 ### Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
12784
12785 * Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
12786
12787 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
12788 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
12789
12790 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid ([CVE-2003-0545]).
12791
12792 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
12793 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
12794
12795 *Steve Henson*
12796
12797 * New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
12798 exiting on the first error in a request.
12799
12800 *Steve Henson*
12801
12802 * In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
12803 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
12804 specifications.
12805
12806 *Steve Henson*
12807
12808 * In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
12809 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
12810 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
12811
12812 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe*
12813
12814 * Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
12815 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
12816
12817 *Richard Levitte*
12818
12819 * Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
12820 blocks during encryption.
12821
12822 *Richard Levitte*
12823
12824 * Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
12825 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
12826 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
12827 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
12828 certain size.
12829
12830 *Steve Henson*
12831
12832 * Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
12833 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
12834 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
12835 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
12836 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
12837 parser.

12840
12841 ### Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
12842
12843 * Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
12844 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
12845 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
12846 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
12847
12848 *Bodo Moeller*
12849
12850 * Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
12851 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
12852 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
12853 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
12854
12855 *Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller*
12856
12857 * Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
12858 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
12859 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
12860 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
12861 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
12862 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
12863 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
12864 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
12865 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
12866
12867 *Bodo Moeller*
12868
12869 * Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
12870 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
12871 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
12872 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
12873
12874 *Geoff Thorpe*
12875
12876 * Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
12877 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
12878
12879 *Ulf Moeller*
12880
12881 ### Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
12882
12883 * In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
12884 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
12885 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
12886 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
12887 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. ([CVE-2003-0078])
12888
12889 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
12890 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
12891 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)*
12892
12893 * Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
12894 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
12895 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
12896 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
12897 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
12898
12899 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
12900 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
12901 used by default when no-err is given.
12902
12903 *Richard Levitte*
12904
12905 * Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
12906
12907 *dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454*
12908
12909 * Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
12910 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
12911 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
12912 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
12913
12914 *Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte*
12915
12916 * Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
12917 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
12918 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
12919 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
12920
12921 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
12922
12923 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
12924
12925 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
12926
12927 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
12928 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
12929 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
12930 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
12931 root is omitted).
12932
12933 *Steve Henson*
12934
12935 * Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
12936
12937 *Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte*
12938
12939 * Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
12940 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
12941
12942 *Steve Henson*
12943
12944 * DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
12945 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
12946 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
12947 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
12948
12949 *Lutz Jaenicke*
12950
12951 * Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
12952 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
12953 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
12954 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
12955 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
12956 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
12957 followup to PR #377.
12958
12959 *Lutz Jaenicke*
12960
12961 * IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
12962 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
12963
12964 *Andy Polyakov*
12965
12966 * Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
12967 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
12968 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
12969
12970 *Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>*
12971
12972 ### Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
12973
12974 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
12975 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
12976
12977 * Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
12978 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
12979 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
12980 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
12981 client and server.
12982 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
12983 PR #377.
12984
12985 *Lutz Jaenicke*
12986
12987 * Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
12988 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
12989 removed entirely.
12990
12991 *Richard Levitte*
12992
12993 * The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
12994 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
12995 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
12996 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
12997 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
12998 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
12999 of libcrypto.
13000 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
13001 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
13002 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
13003 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
13004 have to be made anyway).
13005
13006 *Richard Levitte*
13007
13008 * In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
13009 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
13010 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
13011
13012 *Steve Henson*
13013
13014 * Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
13015 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
13016 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
13017
13018 *Richard Levitte*
13019
13020 * Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
13021 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
13022
13023 *Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte*
13024
13025 * Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
13026 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
13027 edit numbers of the version.
13028
13029 *Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte*
13030
13031 * Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
13032 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
13033
13034 *Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte*
13035
13036 * Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
13037
13038 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13039
13040 * Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
13041 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
13042
13043 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13044
13045 * Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
13046
13047 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13048
13049 * Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
13050
13051 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13052
13053 * Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
13054
13055 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13056
13057 * Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
13058
13059 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13060
13061 * Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
13062 overflows.
13063
13064 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13065
13066 * Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
13067 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
13068
13069 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13070
13071 * Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
13072 representations in a platform independent manner.
13073
13074 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13075
13076 * Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
13077 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
13078
13079 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13080
13081 * Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
13082 indents.
13083
13084 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13085
13086 * Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
13087
13088 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13089
13090 * buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
13091 full. Fixed.
13092
13093 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13094
13095 * Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
13096 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
13097
13098 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13099
13100 * New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
13101 unconditionally).
13102
13103 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13104
13105 * Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
13106
13107 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13108
13109 * Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
13110
13111 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13112
13113 * Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
13114
13115 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13116
13117 * If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
13118
13119 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13120
13121 * Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
13122 CBCParameter.
13123
13124 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13125
13126 * Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
13127
13128 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13129
13130 * Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
13131
13132 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13133
13134 * Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
13135 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
13136 exploitable.
13137
13138 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13139
13140 * Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
13141 the 0.9.6 release series:
13142
13143 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
13144 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
13145 ([CVE-2002-0657])
13146
13147 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13148
13149 * Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
13150
13151 *Richard Levitte*
13152
13153 * Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
13154
13155 *Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson*
13156
13157 * The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
13158
13159 *Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>*
13160
13161 * Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
13162 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
13163 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
13164
13165 *Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>*
13166
13167 * Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
13168 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
13169 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
13170
13171 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
13172 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
13173 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
13174
13175 *Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller*
13176
13177 * Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
13178 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
13179 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
13180 some local tweaks:
13181
13182 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
13183 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
13184 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
13185 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
13186 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
13187 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
13188 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
13189 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
13190 done
13191
13192 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
13193 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
13194 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
13195
13196 *Richard Levitte*
13197
13198 * Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
13199 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
13200 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
13201 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
13202
13203 *Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>*
13204
13205 * Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
13206
13207 *Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>*
13208
13209 * Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
13210 error in AES-CFB decryption.
13211
13212 *Richard Levitte*
13213
13214 * Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
13215 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
13216 calling `EVP_*Final()`. This behaviour is used by encryption
13217 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
13218 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
13219 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
13220
13221 *Steve Henson*
13222
13223 * Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
13224 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
13225 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
13226
13227 *Steve Henson*
13228
13229 * Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
13230 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
13231
13232 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13233
13234 * Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
13235 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
13236 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
13237 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
13238 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
13239 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
13240 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
13241
13242 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13243
13244 * Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
13245 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
13246 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
13247 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
13248 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
13249 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
13250
13251 *Steve Henson*
13252
13253 * Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
13254 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
13255 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
13256 declaration has been changed from
13257 int (*cb)()
13258 into
13259 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
13260 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
13261 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
13262 has been changed into
13263 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
13264
13265 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
13266 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
13267
13268 *D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>*
13269
13270 * Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
13271
13272 *Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe*
13273
13274 * Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
13275 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
13276 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
13277 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
13278 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
13279 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
13280 always load it have also been added.
13281
13282 *Steve Henson*
13283
13284 * Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
13285 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
13286
13287 *Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte*
13288
13289 * Config modules support in openssl utility.
13290
13291 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
13292 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
13293 because it couldn't be used for anything.
13294
13295 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
13296 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
13297 command line option can be used to specify an
13298 alternative file.
13299
13300 *Steve Henson*
13301
13302 * Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
13303 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
13304
13305 *Steve Henson*
13306
13307 * Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
13308 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
13309 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
13310
13311 *Steve Henson*
13312
13313 * Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
13314 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
13315 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
13316 to work with the new engine framework.
13317
13318 *AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte*
13319
13320 * Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
13321 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
13322 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
13323 to work with the new engine framework.
13324
13325 *Richard Levitte*
13326
13327 * Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
13328 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
13329
13330 *Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte*
13331
13332 * Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
13333
13334 *Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte*
13335
13336 * Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
13337 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
13338 implemented in `apps.c`, and make those routines able to
13339 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
13340 FORMAT_IISSGC.
13341
13342 *Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte*
13343
13344 * Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
13345
13346 *Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte*
13347
13348 * Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
13349
13350 *Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>*
13351
13352 * Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
13353 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
13354 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
13355
13356 *Ben Laurie*
13357
13358 * Add new functions
13359 ERR_peek_last_error
13360 ERR_peek_last_error_line
13361 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
13362 These are similar to
13363 ERR_peek_error
13364 ERR_peek_error_line
13365 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
13366 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
13367 still in the error queue.
13368
13369 *Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller*
13370
13371 * default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
13372 like:
13373 default_algorithms = ALL
13374 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
13375
13376 *Steve Henson*
13377
13378 * Preliminary ENGINE config module.
13379
13380 *Steve Henson*
13381
13382 * New experimental application configuration code.
13383
13384 *Steve Henson*
13385
13386 * Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
13387 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
13388 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
13389
13390 *Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte*
13391
13392 * SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
13393
13394 *Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt*
13395
13396 * Add option to output public keys in req command.
13397
13398 *Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org*
13399
13400 * Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
13401 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
13402
13403 *Bodo Moeller*
13404
13405 * New functions/macros
13406
13407 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
13408 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
13409 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
13410 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
13411
13412 to request calling a callback function
13413
13414 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
13415 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
13416
13417 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
13418 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
13419 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
13420 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
13421 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
13422 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
13423 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
13424 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
13425 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
13426 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
13427
13428 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
13429 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
13430
13431 *Bodo Moeller*
13432
13433 * Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
13434 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
13435 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
13436 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
13437 the configuration scripts.
13438
13439 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
13440 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
13441
13442 *"Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte*
13443
13444 * Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
13445
13446 *Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>*
13447
13448 * Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
13449 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
13450 when reusing an existing buffer.
13451
13452 *Bodo Moeller*
13453
13454 * New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
13455 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
13456
13457 *Steve Henson*
13458
13459 * Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
13460 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
13461
13462 *Ben Laurie*
13463
13464 * Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
13465 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
13466 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
13467 has the same effect.
13468
13469 *Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org*
13470
13471 * Change all functions with names starting with `des_` to be starting
13472 with `DES_` instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
13473 but are named `_ossl_old_des_*`. Finally, add macros that map the
13474 `des_*` symbols to the corresponding `_ossl_old_des_*` if libdes
13475 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
13476 desired, the `des_*` symbols will be mapped to `DES_*`, with one
13477 exception.
13478
13479 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
13480 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
13481 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
13482 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
13483
13484 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
13485 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
13486 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
13487 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
13488
13489 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
13490 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
13491 won't work.
13492
13493 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
13494 authors are encouraged to switch to the `DES_` style functions. Some
13495 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
13496 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
13497 default), and then completely removed.
13498
13499 *Richard Levitte*
13500
13501 * Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
13502 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
13503 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
13504 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
13505 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
13506 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
13507 particular extension is supported.
13508
13509 *Steve Henson*
13510
13511 * Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
13512 to retain compatibility with existing code.
13513
13514 *Steve Henson*
13515
13516 * Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
13517 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
13518 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
13519 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
13520 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
13521 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
13522 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
13523 requires the destination to be valid.
13524
13525 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
13526 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
13527
13528 *Steve Henson*
13529
13530 * Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
13531 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
13532 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
13533
13534 *Bodo Moeller*
13535
13536 * Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
13537
13538 *Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte*
13539
13540 * Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
13541 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
13542 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
13543 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
13544 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
13545 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
13546 implementations of their own. This is detailed in
13547 [crypto/engine/README.md](crypto/engine/README.md)
13548 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
13549 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
13550 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
13551 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
13552 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
13553 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
13554 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
13555 functions dealing with `BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT]` handlers have been removed -
13556 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
13557 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
13558 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
13559 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
13560 the new code.
13561
13562 *Geoff Thorpe*
13563
13564 * Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
13565
13566 *Steve Henson*
13567
13568 * Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
13569 and make sure the automatically generated functions `ERR_load_*`
13570 become part of libeay.num as well.
13571
13572 *Richard Levitte*
13573
13574 * New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
13575 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
13576 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
13577 false once a handshake has been completed.
13578 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
13579 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
13580 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
13581 client has followed the request.)
13582
13583 *Bodo Moeller*
13584
13585 * New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
13586 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
13587 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
13588 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
13589
13590 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
13591 more bits available for options that should not be part of
13592 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
13593
13594 *Bodo Moeller*
13595
13596 * Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
13597
13598 *Steve Henson*
13599
13600 * Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
13601 settable (`SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()`), as proposed by
13602 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
13603
13604 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13605
13606 * Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
13607 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
13608
13609 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13610
13611 * Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
13612 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
13613 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
13614 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
13615
13616 *Geoff Thorpe*
13617
13618 * Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
13619 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
13620 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
13621 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
13622 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
13623 shared-libraries easier (see [README-Engine.md](README-Engine.md)).
13624
13625 *Geoff Thorpe*
13626
13627 * Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
13628 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
13629 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
13630 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
13631 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
13632 the [README-Engine.md](README-Engine.md) file
13633 that brings its information up-to-date and
13634 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
13635 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
13636
13637 *Geoff Thorpe*
13638
13639 * Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
13640 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
13641
13642 *Geoff Thorpe*
13643
13644 * Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
13645
13646 *Ben Laurie*
13647
13648 * Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
13649 md_data void pointer.
13650
13651 *Ben Laurie*
13652
13653 * Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
13654 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
13655 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
13656 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
13657 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
13658 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
13659
13660 *Ben Laurie*
13661
13662 * As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
13663 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
13664 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
13665 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
13666 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
13667 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
13668 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
13669 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
13670 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
13671 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
13672 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
13673 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
13674 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
13675 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
13676 rather than letting it slide.
13677
13678 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
13679 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
13680 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
13681
13682 *Geoff Thorpe*
13683
13684 * Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
13685 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
13686 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
13687 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
13688 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
13689 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
13690 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
13691 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
13692 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
13693
13694 *Geoff Thorpe*
13695
13696 * Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own `*_up_ref()` function to increment
13697 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
13698 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
13699 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
13700 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
13701
13702 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
13703
13704 *Geoff Thorpe*
13705
13706 * Add EVP test program.
13707
13708 *Ben Laurie*
13709
13710 * Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
13711
13712 *Ben Laurie*
13713
13714 * New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
13715 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
13716 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
13717 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
13718 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
13719
13720 *Steve Henson*
13721
13722 * Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
13723 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
13724 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
13725 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
13726 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
13727 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
13728
13729 *Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke*
13730
13731 * Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
13732 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
13733 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
13734 Usage example:
13735
13736 EVP_MD_CTX md;
13737
13738 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
13739 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
13740 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
13741 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
13742 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
13743
13744 *Ben Laurie*
13745
13746 * Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
13747 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
13748 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
13749 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
13750 anyway): E.g.,
13751
13752 des_key_schedule ks;
13753
13754 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
13755 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
13756
13757 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
13758
13759 *Ben Laurie*
13760
13761 * Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
13762 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
13763 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
13764 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
13765 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
13766 functions prevents this.
13767
13768 *Steve Henson*
13769
13770 * Cleanup of EVP macros.
13771
13772 *Ben Laurie*
13773
13774 * Change historical references to `{NID,SN,LN}_des_ede` and ede3 to add the
13775 correct `_ecb suffix`.
13776
13777 *Ben Laurie*
13778
13779 * Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
13780 revocation information is handled using the text based index
13781 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
13782 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
13783 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
13784
13785 *Steve Henson*
13786
13787 * Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.

13789 *Richard Levitte*
13790
13791 * Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
13792 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
13793 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
13794 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
13795
13796 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
13797 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
13798
13799 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.

13801 via Richard Levitte*
13802
13803 * Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
13804 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
13805 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
13806 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
13807
13808 *Geoff Thorpe*
13809
13810 * Speed up EVP routines.

13826
13827 *Ben Laurie*
13828
13829 * Added the OS2-EMX target.
13830
13831 *"Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte*
13832
13833 * Rewrite commands to use `NCONF` routines instead of the old `CONF`.
13834 New functions to support `NCONF` routines in extension code.
13835 New function `CONF_set_nconf()`
13836 to allow functions which take an `NCONF` to also handle the old `LHASH`
13837 structure: this means that the old `CONF` compatible routines can be
13838 retained (in particular w.rt. extensions) without having to duplicate the
13839 code. New function `X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk()` to add extensions to a stack.
13840
13841 *Steve Henson*
13842
13843 * Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
13844 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
13845
13846 *Richard Levitte*
13847
13848 * Change all calls to low-level digest routines in the library and
13849 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
13850 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
13851
13852 *Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson*
13853
13854 * Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
13855 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
13856 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
13857 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
13858 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
13859 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
13860 callback.
13861
13862 *Richard Levitte*
13863
13864 * Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
13865 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
13866 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
13867 and interrupts/cancellations.
13868
13869 *Richard Levitte*
13870
13871 * Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
13872 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
13873
13874 *Steve Henson*
13875
13876 * Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
13877 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
13878
13879 *Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>*
13880
13881 * Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
13882 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
13883 kind of callback.
13884
13885 *Richard Levitte*
13886
13887 * Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
13888 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
13889 than this minimum value is recommended.
13890
13891 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13892
13893 * New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
13894 that are easily reachable.
13895
13896 *Richard Levitte*
13897
13898 * Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
13899 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
13900
13901 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
13902
13903 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
13904 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
13905 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
13906 needed for static libraries under Win32.
13907
13908 *Steve Henson*
13909
13910 * New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
13911 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
13912 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
13913
13914 *Steve Henson*
13915
13916 * Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
13917 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
13918 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
13919 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
13920 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
13921 internally such as S/MIME.
13922
13923 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
13924 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
13925 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
13926
13927 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
13928 applications.
13929
13930 *Steve Henson*
13931
13932 * Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
13933 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
13934 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
13935 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
13936
13937 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
13938
13939 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
13940
13941 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
13942 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
13943 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
13944 handling.
13945
13946 *Steve Henson*
13947
13948 * Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
13949 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
13950 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
13951 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
13952 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
13953 a window system and the like.
13954
13955 *Richard Levitte*
13956
13957 * Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
13958 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
13959
13960 *Geoff*
13961
13962 * Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
13963 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
13964 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
13965 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
13966 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
13967 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
13968 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
13969 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
13970 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
13971 ENGINE structure.
13972
13973 *Geoff*
13974
13975 * Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
13976 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
13977 tag cache.
13978
13979 *Steve Henson*
13980
13981 * Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
13982 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
13983 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
13984 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
13985 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
13986 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
13987 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
13988 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
13989
13990 *Geoff*
13991
13992 * New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
13993 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
13994 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
13995 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
13996 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
13997 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
13998 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
13999 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
14000 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
14001 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
14002 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
14003 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
14004 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
14005 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
14006 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
14007 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
14008 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
14009
14010 *Geoff*
14011
14012 * Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
14013 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
14014 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
14015 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
14016 internal engine_int.h header.
14017
14018 *Geoff*
14019
14020 * Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
14021 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
14022 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
14023 modify their own ones).
14024
14025 *Geoff*
14026
14027 * Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
14028 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
14029 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
14030 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
14031 later on via ctrl() commands.
14032 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
14033 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
14034 structural references.
14035 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
14036 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
14037 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
14038 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
14039 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
14040 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
14041 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
14042 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
14043 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
14044 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
14045 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
14046 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
14047
14048 *Geoff*
14049
14050 * Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
14051 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
14052 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
14053 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
14054 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
14055 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
14056 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
14057 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
14058
14059 *Bodo Moeller*
14060
14061 * Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
14062 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
14063
14064 *Steve Henson*
14065
14066 * Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
14067 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
14068
14069 *Steve Henson*
14070
14071 * Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
14072 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
14073 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
14074 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
14075 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
14076 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
14077 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
14078
14079 *Steve Henson*
14080
14081 * Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
14082 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
14083 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
14084 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
14085 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
14086
14087 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
14088 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
14089 generator).
14090
14091 *Bodo Moeller*
14092
14093 * First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
14094
14095 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
14096 operations and provides various method functions that can also
14097 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
14098
14099 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
14100 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
14101
14102 *Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
14103 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
14104 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>*
14105
14106 * Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
14107 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
14108
14109 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
14110 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
14111
14112 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
14113
14114 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
14115 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
14116 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
14117
14118 *Bodo Moeller*
14119
14120 * Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
14121 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
14122
14123 *Richard Levitte*
14124
14125 * Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
14126 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
14127 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
14128 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
14129 is 40 of more characters long.
14130
14131 *Steve Henson*
14132
14133 * Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
14134 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
14135 pointers.
14136
14137 *Steve Henson*
14138
14139 * Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
14140 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
14141
14142 *Bodo Moeller*
14143
14144 * Modify `EVP_Digest*()` routines so they now return values. Although the
14145 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
14146 might.
14147
14148 *Steve Henson*
14149
14150 * Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
14151
14152 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
14153 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
14154
14155 ASN1 error codes
14156 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
14157 ...
14158 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
14159 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
14160 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
14161 ...
14162 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
14163 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
14164
14165 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
14166
14167 *Bodo Moeller*
14168
14169 * Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
14170 suffices.
14171
14172 *Bodo Moeller*
14173
14174 * New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
14175 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
14176 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
14177 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
14178 and
14179 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
14180
14181 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
14182
14183 *Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>*
14184
14185 * Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
14186 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
14187 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
14188 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
14189 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
14190 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
14191
14192 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
14193 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
14194
14195 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
14196 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
14197
14198 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
14199 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
14200
14201 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
14202 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
14203 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
14204 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
14205
14206 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
14207 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
14208
14209 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
14210 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
14211
14212 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
14213 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
14214 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
14215 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
14216 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
14217
14218 *Richard Levitte*
14219
14220 * In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
14221 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
14222 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
14223 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
14224
14225 *Steve Henson*
14226
14227 * Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
14228 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
14229 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
14230 trust settings.
14231
14232 *Steve Henson*
14233
14234 * Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
14235 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
14236 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
14237 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
14238 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
14239 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
14240 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
14241 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
14242 ocsp utility.
14243
14244 *Steve Henson*
14245
14246 * If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
14247 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
14248
14249 *Steve Henson*
14250
14251 * Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
14252 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
14253 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
14254 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
14255
14256 *Steve Henson*
14257
14258 * New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
14259 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
14260 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
14261 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
14262 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
14263 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
14264 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
14265 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
14266 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
14267 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
14268
14269 *Steve Henson*
14270
14271 * Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
14272 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
14273 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
14274 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
14275 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
14276 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
14277 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
14278
14279 *Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke*
14280
14281 * Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
14282 of the form `#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...` and
14283 `#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...`. This also avoids
14284 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
14285
14286 *Richard Levitte*
14287
14288 * Make all configuration macros available for application by making
14289 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
14290 with `OPENSSL_` to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
14291 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
14292 opensslconf.h.
14293 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
14294 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
14295 are prefixed with `OPENSSL_SYSNAME_`. e_os2.h will create another
14296 macro with the name beginning with `OPENSSL_SYS_`, which is determined
14297 from `OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*` or compiler-specific macros depending on
14298 what is available.
14299
14300 *Richard Levitte*
14301
14302 * New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
14303 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
14304 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
14305 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
14306 auto incremented.
14307
14308 *Steve Henson*
14309
14310 * New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
14311 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
14312 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
14313
14314 *Steve Henson*
14315
14316 * New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
14317 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
14318 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
14319 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
14320 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
14321
14322 *Steve Henson*
14323
14324 * Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
14325
14326 *Steve Henson*
14327
14328 * New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
14329 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
14330 option to ocsp utility.
14331
14332 *Steve Henson*
14333
14334 * New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
14335 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
14336 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
14337 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
14338 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
14339 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
14340 the request is nonce-less.
14341
14342 *Steve Henson*
14343
14344 * Disable stdin buffering in `load_cert()` (`apps/apps.c`) so that no certs are
14345 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
14346 e.g. `(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs`.
14347
14348 *Bodo Moeller*
14349
14350 * Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
14351 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
14352 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
14353
14354 *Steve Henson*
14355
14356 * New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
14357 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
14358 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
14359 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
14360 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
14361
14362 *Lutz Jaenicke*
14363
14364 * Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
14365 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
14366 appear to exist.
14367
14368 *Steve Henson*
14369
14370 * Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
14371 additional certificates supplied.
14372
14373 *Steve Henson*
14374
14375 * Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
14376 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
14377 signature against.
14378
14379 *Richard Levitte*
14380
14381 * Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
14382 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
14383 AES OIDs.
14384
14385 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
14386 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
14387 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
14388 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
14389 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
14390 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
14391 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
14392 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
14393
14394 *Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller*
14395
14396 * New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
14397 request to response.
14398
14399 *Steve Henson*
14400
14401 * Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
14402 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
14403 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
14404 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
14405 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
14406 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
14407 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
14408 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
14409 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
14410 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
14411 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
14412
14413 *Steve Henson*
14414
14415 * Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
14416 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
14417 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
14418 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
14419
14420 *Steve Henson*
14421
14422 * Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
14423
14424 *Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>*
14425
14426 * New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
14427 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
14428 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
14429
14430 *Steve Henson*
14431
14432 * In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
14433 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
14434 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
14435 *Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
14436 <support@securenetterm.com>*
14437
14438 * Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
14439 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
14440 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
14441
14442 *Steve Henson*
14443
14444 * Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
14445 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
14446 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
14447 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
14448 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
14449 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
14450 *Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
14451 <support@securenetterm.com>*
14452
14453 * Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
14454 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
14455 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
14456 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
14457 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
14458 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
14459
14460 *Steve Henson*
14461
14462 * Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
14463 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
14464 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
14465 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
14466 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
14467 printout format cleaned up.
14468
14469 *Steve Henson*
14470
14471 * Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
14472 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
14473 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
14474 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
14475 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
14476 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
14477 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
14478 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
14479
14480 *Steve Henson*
14481
14482 * Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
14483 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
14484 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
14485 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
14486 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
14487 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
14488 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
14489 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
14490
14491 *Steve Henson*
14492
14493 * New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
14494 extensions from a separate configuration file.
14495 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
14496 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
14497 section to use.
14498
14499 *Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>*
14500
14501 * New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
14502 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
14503 parsed, outputted or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
14504 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
14505
14506 *Steve Henson*
14507
14508 * New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
14509 `openssl ca -status <serial>` prints the status of the cert with
14510 the given serial number (according to the index file).
14511 `openssl ca -updatedb` updates the expiry status of certificates
14512 in the index file.
14513
14514 *Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>*
14515
14516 * New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
14517 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
14518 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
14519
14520 *Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>*
14521
14522 * New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
14523
14524 *Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte*
14525
14526 * Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
14527 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
14528 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
14529
14530 *Steve Henson*
14531
14532 * New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
14533 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
14534 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
14535
14536 *Bodo Moeller*
14537
14538 * Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
14539 file name and line number information in additional arguments
14540 (a `const char*` and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
14541 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
14542 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
14543 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
14544 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
14545 functions are provided:
14546
14547 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
14548 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
14549 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
14550 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
14551
14552 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
14553 `CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions` now writes 0 where such an
14554 extended allocation function is enabled.
14555 Similarly, `CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions` writes 0 where
14556 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
14557
14558 *Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller*
14559
14560 * Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
14561 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
14562 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
14563 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
14564 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
14565
14566 *Geoff Thorpe*
14567
14568 * Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
14569 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
14570 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
14571 be queried.
14572 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
14573 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
14574 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
14575
14576 *Lutz Jaenicke*
14577
14578 * Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
14579 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
14580 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
14581 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
14582 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
14583 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
14584 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
14585 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
14586 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
14587
14588 *Richard Levitte*
14589
14590 * Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
14591 provide utility functions which an application needing
14592 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
14593 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
14594 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
14595
14596 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
14597 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
14598 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
14599 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
14600 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
14601 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
14602 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
14603 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
14604 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
14605
14606 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
14607 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
14608 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
14609 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
14610
14611 *Steve Henson*
14612
14613 * Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
14614 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
14615 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
14616 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
14617 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
14618 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
14619 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
14620 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
14621 will be added elsewhere.
14622
14623 *Steve Henson*
14624
14625 * Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
14626 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
14627 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
14628 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
14629
14630 *Steve Henson*
14631
14632 * Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
14633 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
14634 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
14635 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
14636 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
14637 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
14638 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
14639 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
14640 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
14641 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
14642 to produce the required SET OF.
14643
14644 *Steve Henson*
14645
14646 * Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
14647 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
14648 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
14649
14650 *Richard Levitte*
14651
14652 * Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
14653 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
14654 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
14655 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
14656 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
14657 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
14658
14659 *Steve Henson*
14660
14661 * New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
14662 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
14663 the `*_d2i_bio()` and `*_d2i_fp()` functions to use these.
14664
14665 *Steve Henson*
14666
14667 * Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
14668 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
14669 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
14670
14671 *Richard Levitte*
14672
14673 * New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
14674 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
14675 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
14676 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
14677 code will still work when these eventually go away.
14678
14679 *Steve Henson*
14680
14681 * New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
14682 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
14683
14684 *Steve Henson*
14685
14686 * New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
14687 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
14688 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
14689 certificates and CRLs.
14690
14691 *Steve Henson*
14692
14693 * Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
14694 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
14695 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
14696
14697 *Steve Henson*
14698
14699 * Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
14700 entries for variables.
14701
14702 *Steve Henson*
14703
14704 * Add functionality to `apps/openssl.c` for detecting locking
14705 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
14706 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
14707 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
14708
14709 *Bodo Moeller*
14710
14711 * Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
14712 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
14713 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
14714 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
14715 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
14716 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
14717
14718 *Bodo Moeller*
14719
14720 * Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
14721
14722 *Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe*
14723
14724 * Move common extension printing code to new function
14725 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
14726 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
14727
14728 *Steve Henson*
14729
14730 * New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
14731 print routines.
14732
14733 *Steve Henson*
14734
14735 * Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
14736 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
14737 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
14738 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
14739 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
14740 order did not reflect the encoded order.
14741
14742 *Steve Henson*
14743
14744 * Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
14745
14746 *Steve Henson*
14747
14748 * Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
14749 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
14750 for now but they will eventually go away.
14751
14752 *Steve Henson*
14753
14754 * Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
14755 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
14756 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
14757 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
14758 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
14759 has also been converted to the new form.
14760
14761 *Steve Henson*
14762
14763 * Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
14764 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
14765 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
14766 for negative moduli.
14767
14768 *Bodo Moeller*
14769
14770 * Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
14771 of not touching the result's sign bit.
14772
14773 *Bodo Moeller*
14774
14775 * BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
14776 set.
14777
14778 *Bodo Moeller*
14779
14780 * Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
14781 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
14782 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
14783 type-specific callbacks.
14784
14785 *Geoff Thorpe*
14786
14787 * Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
14788 RFC 2712.
14789 *Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
14790 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte*
14791
14792 * Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
14793 in sections depending on the subject.
14794
14795 *Richard Levitte*
14796
14797 * Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
14798 Windows.
14799
14800 *Richard Levitte*
14801
14802 * New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
14803 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
14804 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
14805 be handled deterministically).
14806
14807 *Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller*
14808
14809 * Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
14810 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
14811 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
14812
14813 *Bodo Moeller*
14814
14815 * New function BN_kronecker.
14816
14817 *Bodo Moeller*
14818
14819 * Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
14820 positive unless both parameters are zero.
14821 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
14822 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
14823 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
14824
14825 *Bodo Moeller*
14826
14827 * Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
14828 sign of the number in question.
14829
14830 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
14831
14832 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
14833 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
14834 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
14835 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
14836 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
14837
14838 *Bodo Moeller*
14839
14840 * New function BN_swap.
14841
14842 *Bodo Moeller*
14843
14844 * Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
14845 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
14846 results on negative inputs.
14847
14848 *Bodo Moeller*
14849
14850 * Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
14851 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
14852 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
14853
14854 *Bodo Moeller*
14855
14856 * Move `BN_mod_...` functions into new file `crypto/bn/bn_mod.c`
14857 (except for exponentiation, which stays in `crypto/bn/bn_exp.c`,
14858 and `BN_mod_mul_reciprocal`, which stays in `crypto/bn/bn_recp.c`)
14859 and add new functions:
14860
14861 BN_nnmod
14862 BN_mod_sqr
14863 BN_mod_add
14864 BN_mod_add_quick
14865 BN_mod_sub
14866 BN_mod_sub_quick
14867 BN_mod_lshift1
14868 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
14869 BN_mod_lshift
14870 BN_mod_lshift_quick
14871
14872 These functions always generate non-negative results.
14873
14874 `BN_nnmod` otherwise is `like BN_mod` (if `BN_mod` computes a remainder `r`
14875 such that `|m| < r < 0`, `BN_nnmod` will output `rem + |m|` instead).
14876
14877 `BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m)` generates the same result as
14878 `BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx)`, but requires that `a` [and `b`]
14879 be reduced modulo `m`.
14880
14881 *Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller*
14882
14883 <!--
14884 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
14885 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
14886 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
14887
14888 * Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
14889 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
14890 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
14891 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
14892 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
14893 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
14894 differing sizes.
14895
14896 *Richard Levitte*
14897 -->
14898
14899 * In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
14900 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
14901 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
14902 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
14903 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
14904
14905 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
14906 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
14907 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
14908 cause any problems.
14909
14910 *Bodo Moeller*
14911
14912 * Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
14913
14914 *Richard Levitte*
14915
14916 * Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
14917 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
14918
14919 *Richard Levitte*
14920
14921 * Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
14922 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
14923 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
14924 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
14925 time)
14926
14927 *Richard Levitte*
14928
14929 * Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
14930
14931 *Richard Levitte*
14932
14933 * Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
14934
14935 *Richard Levitte*
14936
14937 * Add the following functions:
14938
14939 ENGINE_load_cswift()
14940 ENGINE_load_chil()
14941 ENGINE_load_atalla()
14942 ENGINE_load_nuron()
14943 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
14944
14945 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
14946 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
14947 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
14948 libraries unless it's really needed.
14949
14950 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
14951 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
14952 declarations (they differed!).
14953
14954 *Richard Levitte*
14955
14956 * 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
14957
14958 *Richard Levitte*
14959
14960 * Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
14961
14962 *Richard Levitte*
14963
14964 * Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
14965
14966 *Bodo Moeller*
14967
14968 * Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
14969 identity, and test if they are actually available.
14970
14971 *Richard Levitte*
14972
14973 * Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
14974 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
14975
14976 *Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>*
14977
14978 * Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
14979 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
14980
14981 *Richard Levitte*
14982
14983 * Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
14984
14985 *Richard Levitte*
14986
14987 * Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
14988
14989 *Richard Levitte*
14990
14991 * Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
14992
14993 *Ben Laurie*
14994
14995 * Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
14996 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
14997
14998 *Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte*
14999
15000 * Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
15001 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
15002 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
15003 different shared library filenames on each system.
15004
15005 *Geoff Thorpe*
15006
15007 * Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
15008
15009 *Richard Levitte*
15010
15011 * Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
15012 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
15013 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
15014 of two sections.
15015
15016 *Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson*
15017
15018 * NCONF changes.
15019 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
15020 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (`_e` for "error checking") and is
15021 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
15022 binary backward compatibility.
15023 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
15024 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
15025 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
15026 LDAP server.
15027
15028 *Richard Levitte*
15029
15030 * Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
15031 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
15032 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
15033 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
15034 this case.
15035
15036 *Steve Henson*
15037
15038 * Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
15039
15040 *Ben Laurie*
15041
15042 * Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
15043 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
15044 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
15045 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
15046 set.
15047
15048 *Steve Henson*
15049
15050 * Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
15051
15052 *Richard Levitte*
15053
15054 ### Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
15055
15056 * Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
15057 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool ([CVE-2004-0079])
15058
15059 *Joe Orton, Steve Henson*
15060
15061 ### Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
15062
15063 * Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
15064
15065 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
15066 certain ASN.1 tags ([CVE-2003-0851])
15067
15068 *Steve Henson*
15069
15070 ### Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
15071
15072 * Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
15073
15074 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
15075 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
15076
15077 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
15078 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
15079
15080 *Steve Henson*
15081
15082 * In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
15083 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
15084 specifications.
15085
15086 *Steve Henson*
15087
15088 * In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
15089 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
15090 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
15091
15092 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe*
15093
15094 * Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
15095 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
15096
15097 *Richard Levitte*
15098
15099 ### Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
15100
15101 * Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
15102 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
15103 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
15104 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
15105
15106 *Bodo Moeller*
15107
15108 * Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
15109 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
15110 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
15111 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
15112
15113 *Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller*
15114
15115 * Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
15116 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
15117 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
15118 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
15119 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
15120 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
15121 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
15122 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
15123 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
15124
15125 *Bodo Moeller*
15126
15127 ### Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
15128
15129 * In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
15130 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
15131 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
15132 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
15133 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. ([CVE-2003-0078])
15134
15135 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
15136 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
15137 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)*
15138
15139 ### Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
15140
15141 * New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
15142 memory from its contents. This is done with a counter that will
15143 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
15144 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
15145 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
15146 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
15147
15148 *Geoff Thorpe*
15149
15150 * Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
15151 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
15152 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
15153 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
15154 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
15155
15156 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15157
15158 * Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
15159 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
15160
15161 *Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>*
15162
15163 * Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
15164 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
15165 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
15166 EVP_cleanup().
15167
15168 *Richard Levitte*
15169
15170 * Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
15171 being properly terminated.
15172
15173 *Richard Levitte*
15174
15175 * Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
15176 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
15177 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
15178
15179 *stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte*
15180
15181 * Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
15182 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
15183 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
15184 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
15185 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
15186 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
15187 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
15188 change.
15189
15190 *Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El*
15191
15192 * Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
15193 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
15194
15195 *Bodo Moeller*
15196
15197 * Fix initialization code race conditions in
15198 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
15199 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
15200 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
15201 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
15202 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
15203 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
15204
15205 *Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller*
15206
15207 * Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
15208 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
15209 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
15210 (see [openssl.org #212]).
15211
15212 *Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke*
15213
15214 * Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
15215 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
15216
15217 *Steve Henson*
15218
15219 ### Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
15220
15221 * [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
15222 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use `_stdcall`).
15223
15224 *Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>*
15225
15226 ### Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
15227
15228 * Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
15229 and get fix the header length calculation.
15230 *Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
15231 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others), Steve Henson*
15232
15233 * Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
15234 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
15235 assertions could call abort()).
15236
15237 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller*
15238
15239 ### Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
15240
15241 * Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
15242 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
15243 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
15244 supplied buffer.
15245
15246 *Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>*
15247
15248 * Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
15249 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
15250 by the selection routines (PR #130).
15251
15252 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15253
15254 * Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
15255
15256 *Nils Larsch*
15257
15258 * New option
15259 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
15260 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
15261 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
15262
15263 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
15264 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
15265 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
15266 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
15267 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
15268 applications.
15269
15270 *Bodo Moeller*
15271
15272 * Changes in security patch:
15273
15274 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
15275 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
15276 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
15277 F30602-01-2-0537.
15278
15279 * Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
15280 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
15281 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
15282 supplied buffer. ([CVE-2002-0659])
15283
15284 *Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>*
15285
15286 * Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
15287 happen in practice.
15288
15289 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
15290
15291 * Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
15292 too small for 64 bit platforms. ([CVE-2002-0655])
15293 *Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>*
15294
15295 * Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
15296 supply an oversized session ID to a client. ([CVE-2002-0656])
15297
15298 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
15299
15300 * Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
15301 supply an oversized client master key. ([CVE-2002-0656])
15302
15303 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
15304
15305 ### Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
15306
15307 * Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
15308 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
15309
15310 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller*
15311
15312 * Check various `X509_...()` return values in `apps/req.c`.
15313
15314 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
15315
15316 * Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
15317 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
15318 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
15319 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
15320 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
15321 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
15322
15323 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15324
15325 * Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
15326 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
15327 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
15328 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
15329
15330 *Bodo Moeller*
15331
15332 * Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
15333
15334 *Bodo Moeller*
15335
15336 * TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
15337 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
15338 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
15339 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
15340 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
15341
15342 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
15343
15344 * Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
15345 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
15346 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
15347 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
15348 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
15349
15350 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15351
15352 * Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
15353 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
15354 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
15355 BN_generate_prime().)
15356
15357 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
15358 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
15359 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
15360 better.
15361
15362 *Bodo Moeller*
15363
15364 * Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
15365 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
15366
15367 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15368
15369 * Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
15370 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
15371 when using non-blocking I/O.
15372
15373 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes*
15374
15375 * Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
15376
15377 *Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke*
15378
15379 * Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
15380 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
15381
15382 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15383
15384 * Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
15385 configuration for the versions before that.
15386
15387 *Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte*
15388
15389 * Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
15390 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
15391 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
15392 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
15393
15394 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15395
15396 * Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
15397 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
15398 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
15399
15400 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15401
15402 * Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
15403 value is 0.
15404
15405 *Richard Levitte*
15406
15407 * [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
15408 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
15409
15410 *Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte*
15411
15412 * Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
15413
15414 *Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte*
15415
15416 * The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
15417 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
15418 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
15419 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
15420 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
15421 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
15422 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
15423 session cache.
15424
15425 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
15426 using a local variable.
15427
15428 *Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller*
15429
15430 * Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
15431 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
15432
15433 *Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller*
15434
15435 * New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
15436
15437 *Richard Levitte*
15438
15439 * Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
15440
15441 *"Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>*
15442
15443 * Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
15444 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
15445
15446 *D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>*
15447
15448 ### Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
15449
15450 * Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
15451 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
15452 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = `10..._2` and
15453 `3*range` is two bits longer than range.)
15454
15455 *Bodo Moeller*
15456
15457 * Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
15458 present.
15459
15460 *Steve Henson*
15461
15462 * Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
15463 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
15464 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
15465 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
15466
15467 *Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller*
15468
15469 * Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
15470 returns early because it has nothing to do.
15471
15472 *Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>*
15473
15474 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
15475 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
15476
15477 *Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>*
15478
15479 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
15480 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
15481 (Use engine 'keyclient')
15482
15483 *Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe*
15484
15485 * Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
15486 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
15487 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
15488 modules).
15489
15490 *Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>*
15491
15492 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
15493 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
15494 from 0.9.7.
15495
15496 *Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox*
15497
15498 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
15499 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
15500 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
15501
15502 *Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox*
15503
15504 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
15505 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
15506 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
15507
15508 *AEP Inc. and Mark Cox*
15509
15510 * Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
15511
15512 *Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>*
15513
15514 * Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
15515 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
15516 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
15517
15518 *Bodo Moeller*
15519
15520 * Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
15521 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
15522 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
15523 become invalid.
15524 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>*
15525
15526 * Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
15527 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
15528 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
15529 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
15530 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
15531 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
15532 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
15533
15534 *Bodo Moeller*
15535
15536 * Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
15537 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
15538 one of the SSL handshake functions.
15539
15540 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric*
15541
15542 * In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
15543 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
15544 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
15545 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
15546 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
15547 the client will at least see that alert.
15548
15549 *Bodo Moeller*
15550
15551 * Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
15552 correctly.
15553
15554 *Bodo Moeller*
15555
15556 * Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
15557 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
15558
15559 *Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>*
15560
15561 * Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
15562 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
15563 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
15564 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
15565 HelloRequest.
15566
15567 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
15568 before just sending a HelloRequest.
15569
15570 *Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>*
15571
15572 * Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
15573 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
15574 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
15575 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
15576 may leak via logfiles.)
15577
15578 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
15579 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
15580 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
15581 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
15582 the legal range.
15583
15584 *Bodo Moeller*
15585
15586 * Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
15587 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
15588
15589 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15590
15591 * Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
15592 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
15593 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
15594 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
15595 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
15596
15597 *Bodo Moeller*
15598
15599 * BN_sqr() bug fix.
15600
15601 *Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>*
15602
15603 * Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
15604 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
15605 followed by modular reduction.
15606
15607 *Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>*
15608
15609 * Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
15610 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
15611
15612 *Bodo Moeller*
15613
15614 * s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
15615 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
15616 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
15617 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
15618
15619 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15620
15621 * Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to `SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]()`.
15622
15623 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15624
15625 * Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
15626 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
15627
15628 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15629
15630 * Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
15631 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
15632 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
15633 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
15634 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
15635 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
15636 automatically.
15637
15638 *Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte*
15639
15640 * In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
15641 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
15642 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
15643 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
15644
15645 *Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>*
15646
15647 * Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
15648
15649 *Andy Polyakov*
15650
15651 * Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
15652 specifically for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
15653 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
15654 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
15655 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
15656 to allow the necessary settings.
15657
15658 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15659
15660 * Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
15661 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
15662 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
15663 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
15664
15665 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15666
15667 * In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
15668 dh->length and always used
15669
15670 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
15671
15672 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
15673 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
15674 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
15675 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
15676 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
15677 dh->length.
15678
15679 So switch back to
15680
15681 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
15682
15683 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
15684 otherwise.
15685
15686 *Bodo Moeller*
15687
15688 * In
15689
15690 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
15691 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
15692 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
15693 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
15694
15695 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
15696 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
15697 always reject numbers >= n.
15698
15699 *Bodo Moeller*
15700
15701 * In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
15702 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
15703 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
15704 variable) is not atomic.
15705
15706 *Bodo Moeller*
15707
15708 * In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
15709 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
15710 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
15711
15712 *Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>*
15713
15714 * Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
15715
15716 *Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>*
15717
15718 * Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
15719 little-endian MIPS.
15720
15721 *Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>*
15722
15723 * Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
15724
15725 *Richard Levitte*
15726
15727 ### Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
15728
15729 * Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
15730 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
15731 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
15732 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
15733 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
15734 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
15735 to traverse all of 'state'.
15736
15737 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
15738 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
15739 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
15740
15741 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
15742 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
15743
15744 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
15745 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
15746 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
15747 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
15748 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
15749 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
15750 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
15751 further strengthens the PRNG.
15752
15753 *Bodo Moeller*
15754
15755 * Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
15756
15757 *Andy Polyakov*
15758
15759 * When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
15760 an error message in this case.
15761
15762 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15763
15764 * Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
15765
15766 *Steve Henson*
15767
15768 * In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
15769 positive and less than q.
15770
15771 *Bodo Moeller*
15772
15773 * Don't change `*pointer` in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
15774 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
15775 that itself.
15776
15777 *Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>*
15778
15779 * Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
15780 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
15781
15782 *Bodo Moeller*
15783
15784 * Fix OAEP check.
15785
15786 *Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller*
15787
15788 * The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
15789 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
15790 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
15791 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
15792 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
15793 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
15794 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
15795 paper.)
15796
15797 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
15798 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
15799 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
15800 detect the supposedly ignored error.
15801
15802 Both problems are now fixed.
15803
15804 *Bodo Moeller*
15805
15806 * In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
15807 (previously it was 1024).
15808
15809 *Bodo Moeller*
15810
15811 * Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
15812 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
15813
15814 *Steve Henson*
15815
15816 * Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
15817
15818 *Steve Henson*
15819
15820 * Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
15821 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
15822 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
15823
15824 *Steve Henson*
15825
15826 * In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
15827 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
15828 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
15829 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
15830 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
15831 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
15832 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
15833 environment variables.
15834
15835 * Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
15836 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
15837 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
15838
15839 *Bodo Moeller*
15840
15841 * In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
15842 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
15843 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
15844 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
15845 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
15846 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
15847
15848 *Bodo Moeller*
15849
15850 * Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
15851 versions of 'test'.
15852
15853 *Bodo Moeller*
15854
15855 ### Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
15856
15857 * Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
15858
15859 *Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>*
15860
15861 * Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
15862 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
15863 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
15864 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
15865 CygWin.
15866
15867 *Richard Levitte*
15868
15869 * Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
15870 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
15871 amount of data available.
15872
15873 *Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org*
15874
15875 *This change does not apply to 0.9.7.*
15876
15877 * Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
15878 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
15879 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
15880 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
15881
15882 *Bodo Moeller*
15883
15884 * Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
15885 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
15886 and UnixWare.
15887
15888 *Richard Levitte*
15889
15890 * Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
15891 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
15892 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
15893 <http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz>).
15894
15895 *Ulf Moeller*
15896
15897 * MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
15898
15899 *Andy Polyakov*
15900
15901 * Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
15902
15903 *Richard Levitte*
15904
15905 * Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
15906 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
15907
15908 *Steve Henson*
15909
15910 *This change does not apply to 0.9.7.*
15911
15912 * Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
15913 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
15914 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
15915 (but broken) behaviour.
15916
15917 *Steve Henson*
15918
15919 * Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
15920 it when found.
15921
15922 *Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte*
15923
15924 * Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
15925 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
15926
15927 *Bodo Moeller*
15928
15929 * Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
15930 did not exist.
15931
15932 *Bodo Moeller*
15933
15934 * Replace rdtsc with `_emit` statements for VC++ version 5.
15935
15936 *Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>*
15937
15938 * Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
15939
15940 *Richard Levitte*
15941
15942 * In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
15943 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
15944
15945 *Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>*
15946
15947 * Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
15948 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
15949 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
15950
15951 *Steve Henson*
15952
15953 * Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
15954 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
15955
15956 *Ulf Moeller*
15957
15958 * Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
15959 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
15960
15961 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
15962
15963 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
15964
15965 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
15966 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
15967 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
15968 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
15969
15970 *Bodo Moeller*
15971
15972 * Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
15973
15974 *Lutz Jaenicke*
15975
15976 * Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
15977 *Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
15978 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>*
15979
15980 * Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
15981 was empty.
15982
15983 *Steve Henson*
15984
15985 *This change does not apply to 0.9.7.*
15986
15987 * Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
15988 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
15989 but the code is actually correct.
15990
15991 *Steve Henson*
15992
15993 * Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
15994 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
15995 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
15996 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
15997 and leaves the highest bit random.
15998
15999 *Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller*
16000
16001 * In the `NCONF_...`-based implementations for `CONF_...` queries
16002 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
16003 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
16004 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
16005 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
16006 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
16007 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
16008
16009 *Bodo Moeller*
16010
16011 * Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
16012
16013 *Ulf Moeller*
16014
16015 * Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
16016 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
16017
16018 *Steve Henson*
16019
16020 * Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
16021 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
16022 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
16023 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
16024 headers.
16025
16026 *Richard Levitte*
16027
16028 * Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
16029 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
16030 and break the signature.
16031
16032 *Steve Henson*
16033
16034 *This change does not apply to 0.9.7.*
16035
16036 * Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
16037 DH ciphersuites.
16038
16039 *Steve Henson*
16040
16041 * Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
16042 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
16043 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
16044 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
16045 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
16046
16047 *Bodo Moeller*
16048
16049 * Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
16050
16051 *"Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>*
16052
16053 * ./config script fixes.
16054
16055 *Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte*
16056
16057 * Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
16058
16059 *Bodo Moeller*
16060
16061 * Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
16062 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
16063 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
16064 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
16065
16066 *Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>*
16067
16068 * Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
16069 call failed, free the DSA structure.
16070
16071 *Bodo Moeller*
16072
16073 * Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
16074 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
16075
16076 *Steve Henson*
16077
16078 * Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
16079 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
16080 when writing a 32767 byte record.
16081
16082 *Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>*
16083
16084 * In `RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt` and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
16085 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting `rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}`.
16086
16087 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
16088 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
16089 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
16090 *Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
16091 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>*
16092
16093 * Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
16094
16095 *Bodo Moeller*
16096
16097 * Use better test patterns in bntest.
16098
16099 *Ulf Möller*
16100
16101 * rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
16102
16103 *Ulf Möller*
16104
16105 * BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
16106
16107 *Bodo Moeller*
16108
16109 * Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
16110 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
16111
16112 *Bodo Moeller*
16113
16114 * Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
16115 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
16116 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
16117 result of the server certificate verification.)
16118
16119 *Lutz Jaenicke*
16120
16121 * Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
16122 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
16123 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
16124
16125 *Bodo Moeller*
16126
16127 * Fix SSL_peek:
16128 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
16129 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
16130 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
16131 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
16132 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
16133 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
16134 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
16135 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
16136
16137 *Bodo Moeller*
16138
16139 * Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
16140 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
16141 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
16142 happening the other way round.
16143
16144 *Geoff Thorpe*
16145
16146 * Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
16147 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
16148
16149 *Bodo Moeller*
16150
16151 * Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
16152 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
16153 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
16154 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
16155
16156 *Richard Levitte*
16157
16158 * Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
16159
16160 *Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>*
16161
16162 * Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
16163
16164 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
16165 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
16166 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
16167 that.
16168
16169 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
16170
16171 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
16172
16173 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
16174 static ones.
16175
16176 *Richard Levitte*
16177
16178 * Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
16179
16180 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
16181 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
16182 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
16183 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
16184
16185 *Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>*
16186
16187 * Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
16188 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
16189 matter what.
16190
16191 *Richard Levitte*
16192
16193 * Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
16194
16195 *Lutz Jaenicke*
16196
16197 ### Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
16198
16199 * In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
16200 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
16201 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
16202 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
16203 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
16204 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
16205 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
16206 by the Finished messages.
16207
16208 *Bodo Moeller*
16209
16210 * More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
16211
16212 *Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>*
16213
16214 * For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
16215 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
16216 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
16217 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
16218 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
16219 appropriately.
16220
16221 *Steve Henson*
16222
16223 * Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
16224 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
16225 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
16226 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
16227 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
16228 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
16229 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
16230 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
16231 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
16232 together.
16233
16234 *Steve Henson*
16235
16236 * On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
16237 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
16238 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
16239 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
16240
16241 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
16242 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
16243 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
16244 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
16245 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
16246 the answer.
16247
16248 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
16249 been tested well enough.
16250
16251 *Richard Levitte*
16252
16253 * Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
16254 it can return incorrect results.
16255 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
16256 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
16257
16258 *Bodo Moeller*
16259
16260 * Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
16261 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
16262 include zero length content when signing messages.
16263
16264 *Steve Henson*
16265
16266 * New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
16267 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
16268
16269 *Bodo Möller*
16270
16271 * Add DSO method for VMS.
16272
16273 *Richard Levitte*
16274
16275 * Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
16276 wrong sign.
16277
16278 *Ulf Möller*
16279
16280 * Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
16281 packages. The default package contains applications, application
16282 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
16283 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
16284 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
16285 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
16286
16287 *Richard Levitte*
16288
16289 * Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
16290
16291 *Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>*
16292
16293 * Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
16294
16295 *NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>*
16296
16297 * Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
16298 random number < q in the DSA library.
16299
16300 *Ulf Möller*
16301
16302 * New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
16303 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
16304 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
16305 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
16306 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
16307 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
16308 just makes things more complicated.)
16309
16310 *Bodo Moeller*
16311
16312 * Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
16313 from EGD.
16314
16315 *Ben Laurie*
16316
16317 * Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req` and `x509`
16318 work better on such systems.
16319
16320 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>*
16321
16322 * Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
16323 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
16324 keyid to the certificates aux info.
16325
16326 *Steve Henson*
16327
16328 * Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
16329 if there was more than one signature.
16330
16331 *Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>*
16332
16333 * Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
16334 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
16335 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
16336 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
16337
16338 *Richard Levitte*
16339
16340 * Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
16341 rather than always using the current time.
16342
16343 *Steve Henson*
16344
16345 * Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
16346 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
16347 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
16348 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
16349 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
16350 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
16351
16352 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
16353 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
16354
16355 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
16356
16357 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
16358 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
16359 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
16360 the same hash value.
16361
16362 As a result various functions (which were all internal
16363 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
16364 structure. This will break anything that messed round
16365 with X509_STORE internally.
16366
16367 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
16368 exact match, rather than just subject name.
16369
16370 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
16371 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
16372 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
16373 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
16374 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
16375 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
16376 entirely (maybe later...).
16377
16378 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
16379
16380 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
16381 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
16382 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
16383 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
16384 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
16385 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
16386 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
16387 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
16388
16389 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
16390 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
16391
16392 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
16393 to customise the verify behaviour.
16394
16395 *Steve Henson*
16396
16397 * Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
16398 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
16399
16400 *Steve Henson*
16401
16402 * When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
16403 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
16404 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
16405 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
16406 request is improperly encoded.
16407
16408 *Steve Henson*
16409
16410 * For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
16411 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
16412 BIO_write(b, ...).
16413
16414 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
16415
16416 *Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr*
16417
16418 * Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
16419 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
16420 words set to zero.)
16421
16422 *Bodo Moeller*
16423
16424 * Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
16425 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
16426 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
16427
16428 *Bodo Moeller*
16429
16430 * New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
16431 used for low-level RSA operations. DER public key
16432 BIO/fp routines also added.
16433
16434 *Steve Henson*
16435
16436 * New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
16437
16438 *Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>*
16439
16440 * A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
16441 Nuron (<http://www.nuron.com/>) and is now available in
16442 demos/state_machine.
16443
16444 *Ben Laurie*
16445
16446 * New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
16447 generation and verification.
16448
16449 *Steve Henson*
16450
16451 * Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
16452 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
16453 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
16454 encode and decode it manually.
16455
16456 *Steve Henson*
16457
16458 * Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
16459 compile under VC++.
16460
16461 *Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>*
16462
16463 * ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
16464 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
16465 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
16466
16467 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>*
16468
16469 * Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
16470 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
16471 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
16472 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
16473 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
16474
16475 *Steve Henson*
16476
16477 * Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
16478
16479 *Richard Levitte*
16480
16481 * Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
16482 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
16483 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
16484
16485 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
16486 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
16487 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
16488 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
16489 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
16490 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
16491 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
16492 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
16493
16494 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
16495 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
16496
16497 On Win32, the `LOG_*` levels are mapped according to this:
16498
16499 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
16500 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
16501 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
16502
16503 *Richard Levitte*
16504
16505 * Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
16506 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
16507 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
16508 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
16509
16510 *Richard Levitte*
16511
16512 * MD4 implemented.
16513
16514 *Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte*
16515
16516 * Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
16517
16518 *Richard Levitte*
16519
16520 * The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
16521 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
16522 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
16523 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
16524 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
16525 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
16526 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
16527 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
16528 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
16529 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
16530 short or long names are found.
16531
16532 *Steve Henson*
16533
16534 * Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
16535
16536 *Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>*
16537
16538 * Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
16539 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
16540 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
16541 version rollback attacks was not effective.
16542
16543 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
16544 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
16545 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
16546 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
16547
16548 *Bodo Moeller*
16549
16550 * Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
16551 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
16552 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
16553
16554 *Richard Levitte*
16555
16556 * New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
16557 these print out strings and name structures based on various
16558 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
16559 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
16560 to allow the various flags to be set.
16561
16562 *Steve Henson*
16563
16564 * Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
16565 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
16566 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
16567 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
16568 dates to be checked.
16569
16570 *Steve Henson*
16571
16572 * Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
16573 negative public key encodings) on by default,
16574 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
16575
16576 *Steve Henson*
16577
16578 * New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
16579 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
16580 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
16581
16582 *Steve Henson*
16583
16584 * crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (`CRYPTO_w_[un]lock`),
16585 not read locks (`CRYPTO_r_[un]lock`).
16586
16587 *Bodo Moeller*
16588
16589 * A first attempt at creating official support for shared
16590 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
16591 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
16592 are always statically linked for now, but there are
16593 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
16594 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
16595
16596 *Richard Levitte*
16597
16598 * Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
16599 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
16600 Random Numbers.
16601
16602 *Ulf Möller*
16603
16604 * Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
16605 DSA key.
16606
16607 *Steve Henson*
16608
16609 * New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
16610 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
16611 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
16612 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
16613 form signing output easier to verify.
16614
16615 *Steve Henson*
16616
16617 * Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
16618
16619 *Steve Henson*
16620
16621 * New ASN1 functions, `i2c_*` and `c2i_*` for INTEGER and BIT
16622 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
16623 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
16624 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
16625 are needed because all other string types have virtually
16626 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
16627 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
16628 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
16629 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
16630 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
16631
16632 *Steve Henson*
16633
16634 * Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
16635
16636 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
16637 the syntax given in [crypto/objects/README.md](crypto/objects/README.md).
16638 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
16639 obj_mac.h.
16640 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
16641 obj_mac.h.
16642
16643 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
16644 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
16645 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
16646 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
16647 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
16648 consistent name changes.
16649
16650 *Richard Levitte*
16651
16652 * Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
16653
16654 *Bodo Moeller*
16655
16656 * Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
16657 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
16658 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
16659 environment variable, or the default random state file.
16660
16661 *Richard Levitte*
16662
16663 * mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
16664 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
16665 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
16666 of safestack.h .
16667
16668 *Steve Henson*
16669
16670 * Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
16671 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
16672 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
16673 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
16674
16675 *Steve Henson*
16676
16677 * Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
16678 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
16679 a "stack macro" of the form `SKM_<name>(type, a, b)`. The
16680 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
16681 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
16682 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
16683 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
16684 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
16685 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
16686 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
16687 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
16688
16689 *Steve Henson*
16690
16691 * When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
16692 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
16693 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
16694 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
16695 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
16696 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
16697 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
16698 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
16699 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
16700 algorithm to openssl-dev.
16701
16702 *Steve Henson*
16703
16704 * The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
16705 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
16706 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
16707
16708 *Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>*
16709
16710 * New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
16711 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
16712 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
16713 omit any duplicate addresses.
16714
16715 *Steve Henson*
16716
16717 * Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
16718 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
16719
16720 *Bodo Moeller*
16721
16722 * Increase maximum window size in `BN_mod_exp_...` to 6 bits instead of 5
16723 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
16724 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
16725 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
16726 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
16727
16728 *Bodo Moeller*
16729
16730 * Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
16731 software:
16732 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
16733 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
16734 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
16735 Free => OPENSSL_free
16736
16737 *Richard Levitte*
16738
16739 * New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
16740 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
16741
16742 *Bodo Moeller*
16743
16744 * CygWin32 support.
16745
16746 *John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>*
16747
16748 * The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
16749 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
16750 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
16751 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
16752 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
16753 approach.
16754
16755 *Geoff Thorpe*
16756
16757 * The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
16758 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
16759 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
16760 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
16761 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
16762 lots of the code, especially `_cmp` operations which should normally
16763 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
16764
16765 *Geoff Thorpe*
16766
16767 * When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
16768 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
16769 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
16770 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
16771 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
16772 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
16773 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
16774 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
16775 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
16776 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
16777 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
16778
16779 *Bodo Moeller*
16780
16781 * In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
16782 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
16783 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
16784 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
16785
16786 *Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke*
16787
16788 * Major EVP API cipher revision.
16789 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
16790 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
16791 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
16792 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
16793
16794 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
16795 ciphers.
16796
16797 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
16798 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
16799 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
16800 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
16801
16802 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
16803
16804 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
16805 of macros.
16806
16807 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
16808 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
16809 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
16810 flags.
16811
16812 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
16813 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
16814 any installed hardware versions can.
16815
16816 *Steve Henson*
16817
16818 * Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
16819 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
16820 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
16821 number.
16822
16823 *Bodo Moeller*
16824
16825 * Call dh_tmp_cb (set by `..._TMP_DH_CB`) with correct 'is_export' flag;
16826 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
16827 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
16828 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
16829
16830 *Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra*
16831
16832 * Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
16833 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
16834
16835 *Steve Henson*
16836
16837 * Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
16838 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
16839
16840 *Richard Levitte*
16841
16842 * Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
16843 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
16844 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
16845 features.
16846
16847 *Steve Henson*
16848
16849 * Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
16850
16851 *Ulf Möller*
16852
16853 * Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
16854 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
16855 but no ssl client purpose.
16856
16857 *Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>*
16858
16859 * Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
16860 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
16861 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
16862 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
16863 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
16864 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
16865 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
16866 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
16867 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
16868 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
16869 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
16870
16871 *Steve Henson*
16872
16873 * Bugfixes in `apps/x509.c`: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
16874 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
16875 be obtained from the error queue.
16876
16877 *Bodo Moeller*
16878
16879 * Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
16880 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
16881 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
16882 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
16883
16884 *Bodo Moeller*
16885
16886 * Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
16887
16888 *Ulf Möller*
16889
16890 * RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
16891 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
16892 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
16893 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
16894 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
16895
16896 *Geoff Thorpe*
16897
16898 * Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
16899 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
16900 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
16901 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
16902 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
16903
16904 *Geoff Thorpe*
16905
16906 * New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
16907 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
16908 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
16909 may not be NULL.
16910
16911 *Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller*
16912
16913 * CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
16914 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
16915 new functions (`NCONF_*`, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
16916 old `CONF_*` functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
16917 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
16918 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
16919 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
16920 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
16921 configuration file in XML format, for example), called `_CONF_*`,
16922 or "the configuration storage API"...
16923
16924 The new configuration file reading functions are:
16925
16926 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
16927 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
16928
16929 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
16930
16931 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
16932
16933 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
16934 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
16935 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
16936 `NCONF_dump_*` dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
16937 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
16938 arguments as the old `CONF_*` functions with the exception of the
16939 first that must be a `CONF *` instead of a `LHASH *`.
16940
16941 To make it easier to use the new classes with the old `CONF_*` functions,
16942 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
16943
16944 *Richard Levitte*
16945
16946 * Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
16947 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
16948 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
16949 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
16950
16951 *Bodo Moeller*
16952
16953 * Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
16954 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
16955 them in a portable way.
16956
16957 *Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte*
16958
16959 ### Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
16960
16961 * Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
16962
16963 * Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
16964 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
16965
16966 * Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
16967 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
16968 *Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
16969 <attili@amaxo.com>*
16970
16971 * Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
16972 was larger than the MD block size.
16973
16974 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>*
16975
16976 * Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
16977 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
16978 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
16979 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
16980 components.
16981
16982 *Steve Henson*
16983
16984 * des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
16985 *Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
16986 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>*
16987
16988 * Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
16989 discouraged.
16990
16991 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>*
16992
16993 * For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
16994 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
16995 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
16996 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
16997 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
16998 Additional arguments are always ignored.
16999
17000 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
17001 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
17002
17003 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
17004 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
17005
17006 *Bodo Moeller*
17007
17008 * Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
17009
17010 *Bodo Moeller*
17011
17012 * For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
17013 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
17014 its own key.
17015 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
17016 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
17017 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
17018 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
17019
17020 *Bodo Moeller*
17021
17022 * New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
17023 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
17024 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
17025 does not suppress any output.
17026
17027 *Richard Levitte*
17028
17029 * Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
17030 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
17031 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
17032 with all the associated security issues.
17033
17034 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
17035 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
17036 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
17037 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
17038 use the value in the default purpose.
17039
17040 *Steve Henson*
17041
17042 * Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
17043 and fix a memory leak.
17044
17045 *Steve Henson*
17046
17047 * In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
17048 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
17049 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
17050 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
17051
17052 *Bodo Moeller*
17053
17054 * In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
17055 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
17056 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
17057 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
17058
17059 *Bodo Moeller*
17060
17061 * Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
17062 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
17063 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
17064
17065 *Bodo Moeller*
17066
17067 * Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
17068 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
17069
17070 *Bodo Moeller*
17071
17072 * The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
17073 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
17074 which was free.
17075
17076 *Steve Henson*
17077
17078 * In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
17079 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
17080
17081 *Bodo Moeller*
17082
17083 * Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
17084 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
17085 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
17086
17087 *Bodo Moeller*
17088
17089 * Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
17090 number generation fails.
17091
17092 *Bodo Moeller*
17093
17094 * New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
17095
17096 *Bodo Moeller*
17097
17098 * Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
17099
17100 *Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>*
17101
17102 * Assembler module support for Mingw32.
17103
17104 *Ulf Möller*
17105
17106 * Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
17107
17108 *Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous*
17109
17110 * Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
17111
17112 *Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>*
17113
17114 ### Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
17115
17116 * PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
17117 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
17118
17119 *Steve Henson*
17120
17121 * In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
17122
17123 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>*
17124
17125 * BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
17126 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
17127
17128 *Ulf Möller*
17129
17130 * Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
17131 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
17132 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
17133 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
17134 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
17135
17136 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>*
17137
17138 * Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
17139 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
17140 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
17141 for example.
17142
17143 *Steve Henson*
17144
17145 * Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
17146 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
17147 and has to call `..._free`; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
17148 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
17149 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
17150 counter, some don't.)
17151 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
17152 counters or duplicate objects.
17153
17154 *Steve Henson*
17155
17156 * Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
17157 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
17158
17159 *Steve Henson*
17160
17161 * Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
17162 *Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
17163 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>*
17164
17165 * Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
17166 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
17167 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
17168 or -rand.
17169
17170 *Ulf Möller*
17171
17172 * Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
17173 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
17174
17175 *Steve Henson*
17176
17177 * Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
17178 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
17179 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
17180 cipher list.
17181
17182 *Steve Henson*
17183
17184 * Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
17185 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
17186 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
17187
17188 *Steve Henson*
17189
17190 * `..._ctrl` functions now have corresponding `..._callback_ctrl` functions
17191 where the `void *` argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
17192 Previously `void *` was abused to point to functions, which works on
17193 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
17194 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
17195 should work without changes.
17196
17197 *Richard Levitte*
17198
17199 * `<openssl/opensslconf.h>` (which is created by Configure) now contains
17200 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
17201 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
17202 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol `OPENSSL_..._DEFINES`
17203 must be defined. E.g.,
17204 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
17205 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
17206 defines all pertinent `NO_<algo>` symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
17207
17208 *Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller*
17209
17210 * Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
17211 record layer.
17212
17213 *Bodo Moeller*
17214
17215 * Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
17216 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
17217 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
17218
17219 *Steve Henson*
17220
17221 * Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
17222 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
17223 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
17224 request header lines. Some software needs this.
17225
17226 *Steve Henson*
17227
17228 * Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
17229 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
17230 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
17231 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
17232 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
17233 is prompted for as usual.
17234
17235 *Steve Henson*
17236
17237 * Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
17238 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
17239 autodetect the card and use it if present.
17240
17241 *Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.*
17242
17243 * Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
17244 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
17245 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
17246 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
17247
17248 *Steve Henson*
17249
17250 * HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
17251
17252 *Andy Polyakov*
17253
17254 * Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
17255 of seed file.
17256
17257 *Steve Henson*
17258
17259 * New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
17260
17261 *Bodo Moeller*
17262
17263 * Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
17264
17265 *Steve Henson*
17266
17267 * Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
17268 bits.
17269
17270 *Ulf Möller*
17271
17272 * More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
17273
17274 *Ulf Möller*
17275
17276 * ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
17277
17278 *Andy Polyakov*
17279
17280 * Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
17281 equal (it gave wrong results if `(rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0)`.
17282
17283 *Ulf Möller*
17284
17285 * Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
17286 options to produce them.
17287
17288 *Steve Henson*
17289
17290 * New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
17291 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
17292
17293 *Ulf Möller*
17294
17295 * Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
17296 for p == 0.
17297
17298 *Ulf Möller*
17299
17300 * Change the `SSLeay_add_all_*()` functions to `OpenSSL_add_all_*()` and
17301 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
17302 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
17303 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
17304 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
17305 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
17306 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
17307
17308 *Steve Henson*
17309
17310 * Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
17311
17312 *Steve Henson*
17313
17314 * Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
17315 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
17316 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
17317
17318 *Bodo Moeller*
17319
17320 * Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
17321
17322 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>*
17323
17324 * Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
17325 use `void *` instead of `char *` in lhash.
17326
17327 *Ulf Möller*
17328
17329 * Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
17330 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
17331 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
17332 has already seen).
17333
17334 *Bodo Moeller*
17335
17336 * Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
17337 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
17338
17339 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
17340 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
17341 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
17342 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
17343 generation becomes much faster.
17344
17345 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
17346 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
17347 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
17348 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
17349 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
17350 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
17351 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
17352 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
17353 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
17354 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
17355
17356 *Bodo Moeller*
17357
17358 * New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
17359 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
17360 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
17361 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
17362 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
17363 trial division stage.
17364
17365 *Bodo Moeller*
17366
17367 * Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
17368 as ASN1_TIME.
17369
17370 *Steve Henson*
17371
17372 * New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
17373
17374 *Steve Henson*
17375
17376 * New function BN_pseudo_rand().
17377
17378 *Ulf Möller*
17379
17380 * Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
17381 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
17382 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
17383 the comments.
17384
17385 *Ulf Möller*
17386
17387 * Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
17388 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
17389 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
17390
17391 *Bodo Moeller*
17392
17393 * The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
17394 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
17395 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
17396
17397 *Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller*
17398
17399 * Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
17400 used `char *` instead of `void *` and had casts all over the place.
17401
17402 *Steve Henson*
17403
17404 * Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
17405
17406 *Ulf Möller*
17407
17408 * Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
17409 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
17410 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
17411 Rabin-Miller iterations.
17412
17413 *Ulf Möller*
17414
17415 * Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
17416 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
17417 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
17418
17419 *Ulf Möller*
17420
17421 * Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
17422 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
17423 (instead of parameters) in future.
17424
17425 *Steve Henson*
17426
17427 * Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
17428 when a new cipher list is set.
17429
17430 *Steve Henson*
17431
17432 * Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
17433 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
17434 wrong.
17435
17436 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
17437 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
17438 The new command is `@STRENGTH` (see also `doc/apps/ciphers.pod`).
17439
17440 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
17441 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
17442 *A-Za-z0-9*, ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
17443 an error is flagged.
17444
17445 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
17446 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
17447 the readability was also increased :-)
17448
17449 *Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>*
17450
17451 * Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
17452 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
17453 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
17454 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
17455 as the root CA.
17456
17457 *Steve Henson*
17458
17459 * Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
17460 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
17461
17462 *Steve Henson*
17463
17464 * Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
17465 `X509_*()` to `X509at_*()` on the grounds that they don't handle X509
17466 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
17467 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
17468 instead.
17469
17470 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
17471 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
17472 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
17473 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
17474 because they handle more complex structures.)
17475
17476 *Steve Henson*
17477
17478 * Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
17479 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
17480 NO_RSA in `ssl/s2*.c`.
17481
17482 *Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller*
17483
17484 * Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
17485 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
17486 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
17487 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
17488 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
17489 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
17490 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
17491
17492 *Ulf Möller*
17493
17494 * Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
17495 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
17496 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
17497 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
17498 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
17499
17500 *Bodo Moeller*
17501
17502 * Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
17503
17504 *Bodo Moeller*
17505
17506 * New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
17507 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
17508 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
17509 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
17510 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
17511 to use this.
17512
17513 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
17514 code.
17515
17516 *Steve Henson*
17517
17518 * Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
17519 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
17520 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
17521 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
17522
17523 *Steve Henson*
17524
17525 * Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
17526
17527 *Ulf Möller*
17528
17529 * Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
17530 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
17531 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
17532 international characters are used.
17533
17534 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
17535 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
17536 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
17537 in ASN1 order.
17538
17539 *Steve Henson*
17540
17541 * Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
17542 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
17543 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
17544 request.
17545
17546 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
17547 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
17548 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
17549 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
17550 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
17551 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
17552
17553 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
17554 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
17555 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
17556 be handled by the string table functions.
17557
17558 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
17559 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
17560 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
17561 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
17562 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
17563 types at all.
17564
17565 *Steve Henson*
17566
17567 * Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
17568 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
17569 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
17570 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
17571 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
17572
17573 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
17574 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
17575 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
17576 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
17577
17578 *Bodo Moeller*
17579
17580 * Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
17581 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
17582 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
17583 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
17584 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
17585 SHA1.
17586
17587 *Andy Polyakov*
17588
17589 * Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
17590 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
17591 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
17592 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
17593 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
17594 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
17595 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
17596 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
17597
17598 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
17599 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
17600 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
17601
17602 *Steve Henson*
17603
17604 * Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
17605 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
17606 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
17607 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
17608 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
17609 support to pkcs8 application.
17610
17611 *Steve Henson*
17612
17613 * SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
17614 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
17615 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
17616 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
17617 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
17618 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
17619
17620 *Bodo Moeller*
17621
17622 * In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
17623 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
17624 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
17625 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
17626 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
17627 consistency.
17628
17629 *Bodo Moeller*
17630
17631 * Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
17632 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
17633 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
17634 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
17635 example.
17636
17637 *Steve Henson*
17638
17639 * Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
17640 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
17641 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
17642 and any application specific purposes.
17643
17644 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
17645 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
17646 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
17647 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
17648 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
17649 if the certificate is self signed.
17650
17651 *Steve Henson*
17652
17653 * Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
17654 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
17655
17656 *Steve Henson*
17657
17658 * Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
17659 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
17660 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
17661 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
17662
17663 *Steve Henson*
17664
17665 * Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
17666 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
17667 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
17668 Update documentation.
17669
17670 *Steve Henson*
17671
17672 * Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
17673 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
17674 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
17675 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
17676 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
17677
17678 *Steve Henson*
17679
17680 * Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
17681 for details.
17682
17683 *Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>*
17684
17685 * Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
17686 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
17687 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
17688 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
17689 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
17690 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
17691 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
17692 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
17693 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
17694 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
17695
17696 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
17697
17698 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
17699 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
17700 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
17701 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
17702 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
17703
17704 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
17705 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
17706 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
17707 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
17708 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
17709 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
17710 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
17711 request additional information:
17712 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
17713 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
17714
17715 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
17716 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
17717 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
17718 options.
17719
17720 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
17721 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
17722
17723 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
17724 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
17725 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
17726
17727 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
17728
17729 *Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller*
17730
17731 * Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
17732 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
17733 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
17734 algorithm.
17735
17736 *Steve Henson*
17737
17738 * Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
17739 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
17740
17741 *Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson*
17742
17743 * Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
17744 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
17745 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
17746 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
17747 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
17748 included in OpenSSL.
17749
17750 *Steve Henson*
17751
17752 * Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
17753 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
17754 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
17755 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
17756 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
17757 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
17758
17759 *Bodo Moeller*
17760
17761 * New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
17762 PKCS12 structure.
17763
17764 *Steve Henson*
17765
17766 * Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
17767 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
17768 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
17769 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
17770 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
17771 structure.
17772
17773 *Steve Henson*
17774
17775 * Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
17776 need initialising.
17777
17778 *Steve Henson*
17779
17780 * Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
17781 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
17782 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
17783 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
17784 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
17785 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
17786 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
17787 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
17788 be maintained manually.
17789
17790 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
17791 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
17792 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
17793 Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
17794 work because people forget to call this function.
17795 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
17796 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
17797 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
17798
17799 *Steve Henson*
17800
17801 * Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
17802 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
17803 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
17804 should be discouraged from doing it.
17805
17806 *Ben Laurie*
17807
17808 * Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
17809 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
17810 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
17811 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
17812 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
17813 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
17814
17815 *Steve Henson*
17816
17817 * Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
17818 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
17819 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
17820
17821 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
17822 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
17823 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
17824
17825 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
17826 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
17827 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
17828 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
17829 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
17830 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
17831
17832 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
17833 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
17834 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
17835
17836 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
17837 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
17838 and vice versa.
17839
17840 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
17841 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
17842 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
17843 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
17844
17845 *Steve Henson*
17846
17847 * Support for the authority information access extension.
17848
17849 *Steve Henson*
17850
17851 * Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
17852 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
17853 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
17854 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
17855 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
17856 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
17857 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
17858 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
17859 keys so we should be OK.
17860
17861 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
17862 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
17863 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
17864 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
17865 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
17866 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
17867 stay in the name of compatibility.
17868
17869 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
17870 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
17871 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
17872
17873 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
17874 Also rename the `EVP_PKEY_get_*()` to `EVP_PKEY_rget_*()`
17875 (renamed to `EVP_PKEY_get1_*()` in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
17876 `EVP_PKEY_rset_*()` functions (renamed to `EVP_PKEY_set1_*()`)
17877 that do the same as the `EVP_PKEY_assign_*()` except they up the
17878 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
17879 supplied key).
17880
17881 *Steve Henson*
17882
17883 * Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
17884 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
17885 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
17886 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
17887 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
17888 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
17889 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
17890 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
17891 in `apps/verify.c` to take notice of return codes: it was previously
17892 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
17893 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
17894 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
17895 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
17896
17897 *Steve Henson*
17898
17899 * Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
17900
17901 *Steve Henson*
17902
17903 * First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
17904 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
17905 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
17906 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
17907 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
17908 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
17909 single self signed certificate. This means that:
17910 openssl verify ss.pem
17911 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
17912 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
17913 is OK.
17914
17915 *Steve Henson*
17916
17917 * For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
17918 (and add it to external session representation).
17919 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
17920 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
17921 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
17922 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
17923 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
17924 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
17925 security holes.
17926
17927 *Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke*
17928
17929 * Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
17930 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
17931 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
17932
17933 *Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson*
17934
17935 * Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
17936 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
17937 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
17938
17939 *Steve Henson*
17940
17941 * New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
17942 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
17943 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
17944 code.
17945
17946 *Steve Henson*
17947
17948 * SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
17949 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
17950
17951 *Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>*
17952
17953 * Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
17954 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
17955 certificate auxiliary information.
17956
17957 *Steve Henson*
17958
17959 * Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
17960 the 'enc' command.
17961
17962 *Steve Henson*
17963
17964 * Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
17965 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
17966 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
17967 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
17968 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
17969 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
17970 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
17971
17972 *Richard Levitte*
17973
17974 * Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
17975 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
17976
17977 *Steve Henson*
17978
17979 * Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
17980 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
17981 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
17982 manpages and fix a few bugs.
17983
17984 *Steve Henson*
17985
17986 * Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
17987
17988 *Steve Henson*
17989
17990 * Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
17991 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
17992
17993 *Steve Henson*
17994
17995 * Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
17996 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
17997 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
17998 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
17999 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
18000 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
18001 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
18002 using the new 'x509' options.
18003
18004 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
18005 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
18006 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
18007 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
18008 for all purposes.
18009
18010 *Steve Henson*
18011
18012 * Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or `*BSD`).
18013 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
18014 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
18015 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
18016 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
18017
18018 *Mark Cox*
18019
18020 * Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
18021 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
18022 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
18023 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
18024 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
18025 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
18026 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
18027 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
18028 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
18029 the key length and effective key length are equal.
18030
18031 *Steve Henson*
18032
18033 * Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
18034 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
18035 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
18036 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
18037 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
18038 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
18039 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
18040
18041 *Steve Henson*
18042
18043 * Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
18044 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
18045 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
18046 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
18047 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
18048 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
18049 openssl.cnf for more info.
18050
18051 *Steve Henson*
18052
18053 * Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
18054 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
18055 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
18056 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
18057 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
18058 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
18059 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
18060 md should be large enough anyway.
18061
18062 *Bodo Moeller*
18063
18064 * New file `apps/app_rand.c` with commonly needed functionality
18065 for handling the random seed file.
18066
18067 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
18068 ca,
18069 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
18070 s_client,
18071 s_server,
18072 x509 (when signing).
18073 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
18074 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
18075 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
18076
18077 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
18078 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
18079 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
18080 that support '-rand'.
18081
18082 *Bodo Moeller*
18083
18084 * In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
18085 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
18086
18087 *Bodo Moeller*
18088
18089 * Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
18090 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
18091
18092 *Bill Perry*
18093
18094 * New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
18095 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
18096 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
18097 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
18098 is suitable.
18099
18100 *Steve Henson*
18101
18102 * Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
18103 macros are retained with an `M_` prefix. Code inside the library can
18104 use the `M_` macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
18105 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
18106
18107 *Steve Henson*
18108
18109 * Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
18110 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
18111 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
18112 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
18113 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
18114 print out all the purposes.
18115
18116 *Steve Henson*
18117
18118 * Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
18119 functions.
18120
18121 *Steve Henson*
18122
18123 * New `X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i()` functions. These will search
18124 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
18125 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
18126 single function call.
18127
18128 *Steve Henson*
18129
18130 * RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
18131 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
18132
18133 *Andy Polyakov*
18134
18135 * New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
18136 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
18137 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
18138
18139 *Steve Henson*
18140
18141 * Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
18142 when producing the local key id.
18143
18144 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
18145
18146 * New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
18147 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
18148 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
18149 "server.pem".
18150
18151 *Steve Henson*
18152
18153 * Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
18154 a public key to be input or output. For example:
18155 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
18156 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
18157
18158 *Steve Henson*
18159
18160 * Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
18161 in the message. This was handled by allowing
18162 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
18163
18164 *Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>*
18165
18166 * Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
18167 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
18168 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
18169
18170 *Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
18171
18172 * Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
18173 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
18174 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
18175 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
18176 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
18177 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
18178 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
18179 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
18180 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
18181 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
18182 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
18183 trivial: move one line.
18184
18185 *Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer)*
18186
18187 * Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
18188 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
18189 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
18190 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
18191 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
18192 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
18193 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
18194 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
18195 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
18196 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
18197 with an event loop for example.
18198
18199 *Steve Henson*
18200
18201 * Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
18202 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
18203 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
18204 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
18205 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
18206 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
18207 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
18208 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
18209 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
18210
18211 *Steve Henson*
18212
18213 * Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
18214 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
18215 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
18216 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
18217 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
18218 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
18219
18220 *Steve Henson*
18221
18222 * Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
18223 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
18224 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
18225
18226 *Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller*
18227
18228 * Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
18229 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
18230 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
18231 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
18232 key generation.
18233
18234 *Steve Henson*
18235
18236 * Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
18237 (still largely untested)
18238
18239 *Bodo Moeller*
18240
18241 * New function ASN1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
18242 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
18243
18244 *Steve Henson*
18245
18246 * New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
18247 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
18248
18249 *Steve Henson*
18250
18251 * Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
18252 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
18253 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
18254
18255 *Bodo Moeller*
18256
18257 * Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
18258 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
18259 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
18260 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
18261 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
18262
18263 *Steve Henson*
18264
18265 * RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
18266
18267 *Andy Polyakov*
18268
18269 * Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
18270 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
18271 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
18272 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
18273 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
18274 in ca.
18275
18276 *Steve Henson*
18277
18278 * Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
18279 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
18280 1.OU="Unit name 1"
18281 2.OU="Unit name 2"
18282 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
18283
18284 *Steve Henson*
18285
18286 * Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
18287 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
18288 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
18289 are otherwise ignored at present.
18290
18291 *Steve Henson*
18292
18293 * Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
18294 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
18295 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
18296 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
18297 copied until the next read.
18298
18299 *Steve Henson*
18300
18301 * Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
18302 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
18303 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
18304
18305 *Steve Henson*
18306
18307 * Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
18308 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
18309 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
18310 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
18311 library. Also added low-level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
18312 associated functions.
18313
18314 *Steve Henson*
18315
18316 * Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
18317 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
18318 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
18319 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
18320 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
18321 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
18322 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
18323 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
18324 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
18325 memory BIOs.
18326
18327 *Steve Henson*
18328
18329 * Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
18330 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
18331 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
18332 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
18333
18334 *Bodo Moeller*
18335
18336 * The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
18337 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
18338 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
18339 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
18340 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
18341 functionality.
18342
18343 *Steve Henson*
18344
18345 * Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
18346 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
18347 under Win32.
18348
18349 *Steve Henson*
18350
18351 * Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
18352 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
18353 extensions to be obtained and added.
18354
18355 *Steve Henson*
18356
18357 * -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
18358 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
18359
18360 *Bodo Moeller*
18361
18362 ### Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
18363
18364 * Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
18365
18366 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18367
18368 * A few more `#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif` pairs for consistency.
18369
18370 *Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>*
18371
18372 * Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
18373 program.
18374
18375 *Steve Henson*
18376
18377 * New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
18378 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
18379 DH parameters contain its length).
18380
18381 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
18382 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
18383 where `p = 2*q + 1`), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
18384 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
18385 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
18386 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
18387 utter importance to use
18388 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
18389 or
18390 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
18391 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
18392 attacks may become possible!
18393
18394 *Bodo Moeller*
18395
18396 * Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
18397
18398 *Bodo Moeller*
18399
18400 * Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
18401 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
18402
18403 *Steve Henson*
18404
18405 * New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
18406 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
18407 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
18408 or long name.
18409
18410 *Steve Henson*
18411
18412 * Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
18413 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
18414 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
18415 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
18416 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
18417 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
18418 private key operations.
18419
18420 *Steve Henson*
18421
18422 * Added support for SPARC Linux.
18423
18424 *Andy Polyakov*
18425
18426 * pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
18427 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
18428 to
18429 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
18430 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
18431 The `PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}...` functions and macros now take an
18432 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
18433 the password callback is called.
18434
18435 *Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller*
18436
18437 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
18438
18439 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
18440 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
18441 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
18442 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
18443 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
18444 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
18445 this will work.
18446
18447 * The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
18448 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
18449 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
18450 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
18451 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
18452 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
18453
18454 *Bodo Moeller*
18455
18456 * MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
18457
18458 *Andy Polyakov*
18459
18460 * More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
18461 delete an unused file.
18462
18463 *Ulf Möller*
18464
18465 * Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
18466 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
18467 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
18468 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
18469
18470 *Steve Henson*
18471
18472 * Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
18473 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
18474 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
18475 of an error.
18476
18477 *Bodo Moeller*
18478
18479 * New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
18480 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
18481
18482 *Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller*
18483
18484 * Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
18485 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
18486 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
18487 comparison" warnings.
18488 3. Add `sk_<TYPE>_sort` to DEF file generator and do make update.
18489
18490 *Steve Henson*
18491
18492 * Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
18493 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
18494 derived keys are printed to stderr.
18495
18496 *Steve Henson*
18497
18498 * Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
18499
18500 *Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>*
18501
18502 * The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
18503 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
18504
18505 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
18506 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
18507 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
18508
18509 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
18510 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
18511 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
18512 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
18513 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
18514 this bug.
18515
18516 *Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>*
18517
18518 * Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
18519 The interface is as follows:
18520 Applications can use
18521 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
18522 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
18523 "off" is now the default.
18524 The library internally uses
18525 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
18526 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
18527 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
18528
18529 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
18530 even the default) are now avoided.
18531
18532 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
18533 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
18534 than just having a counter.
18535
18536 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
18537
18538 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
18539 extensions.
18540
18541 *Bodo Moeller*
18542
18543 * Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
18544 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
18545 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
18546 Initial "mode" flags are:
18547
18548 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
18549 a single record has been written.
18550 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
18551 retries use the same buffer location.
18552 (But all of the contents must be
18553 copied!)
18554
18555 *Bodo Moeller*
18556
18557 * Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
18558 worked.
18559
18560 * Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
18561
18562 *Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>*
18563
18564 * New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
18565 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
18566 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
18567
18568 *Steve Henson*
18569
18570 * Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
18571 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
18572 test programs.
18573
18574 *Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller*
18575
18576 * Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
18577 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
18578 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
18579 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
18580 point to the end.
18581 *Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>*
18582
18583 * Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
18584 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
18585 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
18586 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
18587 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
18588 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
18589
18590 *Steve Henson*
18591
18592 * Complete the `PEM_*` macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
18593 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
18594 necessary function names.
18595
18596 *Steve Henson*
18597
18598 * mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
18599 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
18600 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
18601 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
18602
18603 *Bodo Moeller*
18604
18605 * New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
18606 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
18607 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
18608
18609 *Steve Henson*
18610
18611 * New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
18612 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
18613 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
18614 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
18615 such programs?)
18616 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
18617 need locks.
18618
18619 *Bodo Moeller*
18620
18621 * Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
18622 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
18623 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
18624
18625 *Bodo Moeller*
18626
18627 * New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
18628 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
18629 appropriate.
18630
18631 *Bodo Moeller*
18632
18633 * Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
18634 for the encoded length.
18635
18636 *Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>*
18637
18638 * Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
18639
18640 *Steve Henson*
18641
18642 * Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
18643 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
18644 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
18645 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
18646
18647 *Steve Henson*
18648
18649 * Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
18650 *directory* in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
18651
18652 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18653
18654 * Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
18655 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
18656 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
18657 unusual formatting.
18658
18659 *Steve Henson*
18660
18661 * Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
18662 to use the new extension code.
18663
18664 *Steve Henson*
18665
18666 * Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
18667 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
18668 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
18669 constant.
18670
18671 *Steve Henson*
18672
18673 * Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
18674 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
18675 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
18676
18677 *Bodo Moeller*
18678
18679 * DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
18680
18681 *Ben Laurie*
18682 lse
18683 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
18684 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
18685 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
18686 ndif
18687
18688 * When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
18689 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
18690 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
18691 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
18692
18693 *Ben Laurie*
18694
18695 * DES library cleanups.
18696
18697 *Ulf Möller*
18698
18699 * Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
18700 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
18701 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
18702 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
18703 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
18704 of v2.0.
18705
18706 *Steve Henson*
18707
18708 * Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
18709 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
18710
18711 *Bodo Moeller*
18712
18713 * Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
18714 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
18715 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
18716 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
18717 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
18718 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
18719 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
18720 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
18721 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
18722
18723 *Steve Henson*
18724
18725 * Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
18726 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
18727 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
18728 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
18729 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
18730 value doesn't matter.
18731
18732 *Steve Henson*
18733
18734 * Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
18735 support mutable.
18736
18737 *Ben Laurie*
18738
18739 * "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
18740
18741 *Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>*
18742 "linux-sparc" configuration.
18743
18744 *Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>*
18745
18746 * config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
18747
18748 *Ulf Möller*
18749
18750 * Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
18751 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
18752
18753 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>*
18754
18755 * Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
18756
18757 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>*
18758
18759 * Make callbacks for key generation use `void *` instead of `char *`.
18760
18761 *Ben Laurie*
18762
18763 * Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
18764
18765 *Ben Laurie*
18766
18767 * Additional typesafe stacks.
18768
18769 *Ben Laurie*
18770
18771 * New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
18772
18773 *Bodo Moeller*
18774
18775 ### Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
18776
18777 * New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
18778
18779 * Updated some demos.
18780
18781 *Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine*
18782
18783 * Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
18784
18785 *Wu Zhigang*
18786
18787 * Fix memory leak in conf.c.
18788
18789 *Steve Henson*
18790
18791 * Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
18792
18793 *Steve Henson*
18794
18795 * Set #! path to perl in `apps/der_chop` to where we found it
18796 instead of using a fixed path.
18797
18798 *Bodo Moeller*
18799
18800 * SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
18801
18802 *Andy Polyakov*
18803
18804 * Improvements for VMS support.
18805
18806 *Richard Levitte*
18807
18808 ### Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
18809
18810 * Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
18811 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
18812
18813 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
18814
18815 * New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
18816 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
18817 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
18818 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
18819 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
18820 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
18821 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
18822 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
18823 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
18824 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
18825
18826 *Steve Henson*
18827
18828 * Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
18829 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
18830
18831 *Steve Henson*
18832
18833 * Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
18834 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
18835 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
18836 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
18837 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
18838
18839 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
18840
18841 *Bodo Moeller*
18842
18843 * Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
18844 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
18845 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
18846
18847 *Steve Henson*
18848
18849 * Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
18850
18851 *Ben Laurie*
18852
18853 * Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
18854 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
18855 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
18856 key elements as negative integers.
18857
18858 *Steve Henson*
18859
18860 * Reorganize and speed up MD5.
18861
18862 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
18863
18864 * VMS support.
18865
18866 *Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>*
18867
18868 * New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
18869 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
18870 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
18871
18872 *Steve Henson*
18873
18874 * Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
18875 that `SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state` be called before
18876 `SSL_{accept,connect}` may be used (`SSL_set_..._state` is omitted
18877 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
18878 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
18879
18880 *Bodo Moeller*
18881
18882 * Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
18883
18884 *Ulf Möller*
18885
18886 * Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass "egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
18887 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
18888 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline" with EGCS 1.1.2+
18889
18890 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18891
18892 * Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
18893 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
18894
18895 *Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve*
18896
18897 * Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
18898 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
18899 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
18900 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to `s->ctx->[default_]cert`
18901 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
18902 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
18903 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
18904 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
18905 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
18906
18907 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
18908 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
18909 Changing settings for an `SSL_CTX *ctx` after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
18910 does not influence s as it used to.
18911
18912 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
18913 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
18914 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
18915 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
18916 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
18917 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
18918
18919 *Bodo Moeller*
18920
18921 * New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
18922 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
18923 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
18924 key type.
18925
18926 *Steve Henson*
18927
18928 * Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
18929 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
18930 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
18931 and 'x509').
18932
18933 *Steve Henson*
18934
18935 * Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
18936 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
18937 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
18938 extension option.
18939
18940 *Steve Henson*
18941
18942 * Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
18943 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
18944
18945 *Ben Laurie*
18946
18947 * Support Borland C++ builder.
18948
18949 *Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller*
18950
18951 * Support Mingw32.
18952
18953 *Ulf Möller*
18954
18955 * SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
18956
18957 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
18958
18959 * Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
18960
18961 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
18962
18963 * Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
18964
18965 *Ulf Möller*
18966
18967 * Update HPUX configuration.
18968
18969 *Anonymous*
18970
18971 * Add missing `sk_<type>_unshift()` function to safestack.h
18972
18973 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18974
18975 * New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
18976 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
18977 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
18978 DER-encoded.)
18979
18980 *Bodo Moeller*
18981
18982 * Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
18983 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
18984 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
18985 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
18986 now it really counts the depth.
18987
18988 *Bodo Moeller*
18989
18990 * Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
18991 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
18992 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
18993 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
18994 didn't match the private key).
18995
18996 * New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
18997 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
18998 connection using the SSL_CTX).
18999
19000 *Bodo Moeller*
19001
19002 * OAEP decoding bug fix.
19003
19004 *Ulf Möller*
19005
19006 * Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
19007 David Harris.
19008
19009 *Bodo Moeller*
19010
19011 * New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
19012 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
19013 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
19014
19015 *Bodo Moeller*
19016
19017 * New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
19018
19019 *Bodo Moeller*
19020
19021 * Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
19022 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
19023 such as /usr/local/bin.
19024
19025 *Bodo Moeller*
19026
19027 * "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
19028
19029 *Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>*
19030
19031 * New Configure option `no-<cipher>` (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
19032
19033 *Ulf Möller*
19034
19035 * Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
19036 extension adding in x509 utility.
19037
19038 *Steve Henson*
19039
19040 * Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
19041
19042 *Ulf Möller*
19043
19044 * Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
19045 prototypes.
19046
19047 *Steve Henson*
19048
19049 * New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
19050
19051 *Ulf Möller*
19052
19053 * Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
19054 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
19055 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
19056 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
19057 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
19058 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
19059 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code embedded
19060 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
19061 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
19062 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
19063
19064 *Steve Henson*
19065
19066 * Change #include filenames from `<foo.h>` to `<openssl/foo.h>`.
19067
19068 *Bodo Moeller*
19069
19070 * Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
19071 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
19072
19073 *Bodo Moeller*
19074
19075 * Fix some race conditions.
19076
19077 *Bodo Moeller*
19078
19079 * Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
19080 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
19081
19082 *Steve Henson*
19083
19084 * Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
19085
19086 *Ulf Möller*
19087
19088 * Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
19089 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
19090 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
19091
19092 *Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>*
19093
19094 * Fix lots of warnings.
19095
19096 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
19097
19098 * In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
19099 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
19100
19101 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
19102
19103 * Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
19104
19105 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
19106
19107 * Change functions to ANSI C.
19108
19109 *Ulf Möller*
19110
19111 * Fix typos in error codes.
19112
19113 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller*
19114
19115 * Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
19116
19117 *Ulf Möller*
19118
19119 * SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
19120
19121 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
19122
19123 * Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
19124 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
19125
19126 *Steve Henson*
19127
19128 * A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
19129 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
19130
19131 *Ben Laurie*
19132
19133 * Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
19134 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
19135
19136 *Steve Henson*
19137
19138 * Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
19139 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
19140
19141 *Steve Henson*
19142
19143 * Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
19144 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
19145
19146 *Steve Henson*
19147
19148 * Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
19149 support typesafe stack.
19150
19151 *Steve Henson*
19152
19153 * Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
19154
19155 *Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>*
19156
19157 * Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
19158 old X509V3 handling code.
19159
19160 *Steve Henson*
19161
19162 * New Configure option "rsaref".
19163
19164 *Ulf Möller*
19165
19166 * Don't auto-generate pem.h.
19167
19168 *Bodo Moeller*
19169
19170 * Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
19171
19172 *Ben Laurie*
19173
19174 * Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
19175
19176 *Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson*
19177
19178 * Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
19179 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
19180 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
19181 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
19182 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
19183
19184 *Ben Laurie*
19185
19186 * Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>` facility which revokes a certificate
19187 specified in `<certfile>` by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
19188 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
19189 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
19190
19191 *Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall*
19192
19193 * Fix `openssl crl -noout -text` combination where `-noout` killed the
19194 `-text` option at all and this way the `-noout -text` combination was
19195 inconsistent in `openssl crl` with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa`.
19196
19197 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19198
19199 * Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
19200 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
19201 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
19202
19203 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19204
19205 * Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test `openssl <cipher>` for
19206 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
19207 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
19208 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
19209 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
19210 `openssl list-cipher-commands` is used.
19211
19212 *Bodo Moeller*
19213
19214 * Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
19215 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
19216
19217 *Bodo Moeller*
19218
19219 * New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
19220 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
19221
19222 *Ulf Möller*
19223
19224 * Tweaks to Configure
19225
19226 *Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>*
19227
19228 * Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
19229 yet...
19230
19231 *Steve Henson*
19232
19233 * New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
19234
19235 *Ulf Möller*
19236
19237 * New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
19238 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
19239
19240 *Ulf Möller*
19241
19242 * Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
19243 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
19244 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
19245
19246 *Bodo Moeller*
19247
19248 * New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
19249
19250 *Bodo Moeller*
19251
19252 * Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
19253 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
19254
19255 *Steve Henson*
19256
19257 * More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
19258 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
19259 to library startup routines.
19260
19261 *Steve Henson*
19262
19263 * Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
19264 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
19265 codes along the way.
19266
19267 *Steve Henson*
19268
19269 * PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
19270 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
19271 objects to objects.h
19272
19273 *Steve Henson*
19274
19275 * Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
19276 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
19277
19278 *Steve Henson*
19279
19280 * Add LinuxPPC support.
19281
19282 *Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>*
19283
19284 * Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
19285 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
19286
19287 *Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie*
19288
19289 * Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
19290 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
19291
19292 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>*
19293
19294 * Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
19295 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
19296
19297 *Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>*
19298
19299 ### Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
19300
19301 * Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
19302 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
19303
19304 *Ben Laurie*
19305
19306 * Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
19307 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
19308 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
19309 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
19310
19311 *Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)*
19312
19313 * Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
19314 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
19315 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
19316 document.
19317
19318 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>*
19319
19320 * Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
19321 Malloc, Free.
19322
19323 *Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve*
19324
19325 * Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
19326
19327 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>*
19328
19329 * Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
19330 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
19331 if someone would make that last step automatic.
19332
19333 *Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>*
19334
19335 * ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
19336
19337 *Ben Laurie*
19338
19339 * Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
19340 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
19341 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
19342 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
19343
19344 *Steve Henson*
19345
19346 * Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
19347 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
19348 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
19349
19350 *Steve Henson*
19351
19352 * Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
19353 /path/to/bin/perl` in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin`,
19354 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5` (which is
19355 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
19356 installed as `perl`).
19357
19358 *Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>*
19359
19360 * Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
19361
19362 *Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>*
19363
19364 * Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
19365 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
19366 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
19367 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
19368 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
19369
19370 *Steve Henson*
19371
19372 * DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
19373
19374 *Ben Laurie*
19375
19376 * Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
19377 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
19378 is horrible: I feel ill....
19379
19380 *Steve Henson*
19381
19382 * Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
19383 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
19384 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
19385 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
19386
19387 *Steve Henson*
19388
19389 * Make `openssl version` output lines consistent.
19390
19391 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19392
19393 * Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
19394 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
19395 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
19396
19397 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19398
19399 * Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
19400 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
19401 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
19402 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
19403 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
19404 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
19405 openssl_bio.xs.
19406
19407 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19408
19409 * Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
19410
19411 *Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie*
19412
19413 * Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
19414
19415 *John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>*
19416
19417 * Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
19418
19419 *Ben Laurie*
19420
19421 * Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
19422 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
19423 in CRLs.
19424
19425 *Steve Henson*
19426
19427 * Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
19428 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
19429 Configure script every time: One now can use
19430 `perl Configure <id>:<details>`,
19431 i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
19432 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
19433 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key `<id>` with value
19434 `<details>` and `perl Configure <id>` is called. So, when you want to
19435 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
19436 assembler stuff you can use `perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"`
19437 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
19438
19439 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19440
19441 * Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
19442
19443 *Ben Laurie*
19444
19445 * Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
19446 on the `perl Configure ...` command line. This way one can compile
19447 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
19448 for linking it into DSOs.
19449
19450 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19451
19452 * Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
19453 Fixed.
19454
19455 *Ben Laurie*
19456
19457 * Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
19458 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
19459 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
19460 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
19461 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
19462
19463 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19464
19465 * General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...`
19466 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm` by `rm`.
19467 Additionally cleaned up the `make links` target: Remove unnecessary
19468 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
19469 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
19470 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
19471
19472 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19473
19474 * Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
19475 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
19476 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
19477 encryption.
19478
19479 *Ben Laurie*
19480
19481 * Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
19482 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
19483 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
19484 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
19485
19486 *Steve Henson*
19487
19488 * Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
19489 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
19490 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
19491 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
19492 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
19493 field as blank.
19494
19495 *Steve Henson*
19496
19497 * Added the new 'Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
19498 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
19499 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
19500 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
19501
19502 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19503
19504 * Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
19505 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
19506
19507 *Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>*
19508
19509 * Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
19510
19511 *Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>*
19512
19513 * Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
19514 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
19515 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
19516 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
19517 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
19518
19519 *Steve Henson*
19520
19521 * Add new certificate file to stack functions,
19522 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
19523 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
19524 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
19525 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
19526 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
19527 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
19528
19529 *Ben Laurie*
19530
19531 * Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
19532 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
19533 See <http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html>, and run doxygen with
19534 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
19535
19536 *Ben Laurie*
19537
19538 * Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
19539
19540 *Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual*
19541
19542 * Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
19543 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
19544
19545 *Steve Henson*
19546
19547 * Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
19548 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
19549 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
19550 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
19551 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
19552 (e.g. s_server).
19553 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
19554 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
19555 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
19556 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
19557 no way to reconfigure them.
19558 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
19559 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
19560 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
19561 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
19562 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
19563
19564 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19565
19566 * Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
19567 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
19568 recognized by the users.
19569
19570 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19571
19572 * Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
19573 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
19574 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
19575 already masked variable.
19576
19577 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
19578
19579 * Fix `port` variable from `int` to `unsigned int` in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
19580
19581 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
19582
19583 * Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
19584 from `int` to `unsigned int` because it is a length and initialized by
19585 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *`.
19586
19587 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
19588
19589 * Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
19590 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
19591
19592 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19593
19594 * Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus`' functional also for DSA certificates
19595 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
19596 -noout -modulus` as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
19597 -modulus`. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
19598 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
19599 `openssl dsa -modulus` in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
19600 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
19601 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
19602 now, too.
19603
19604 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19605
19606 * Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
19607 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
19608
19609 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
19610
19611 * Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
19612 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
19613 config file.
19614
19615 *Steve Henson*
19616
19617 * Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
19618
19619 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie*
19620
19621 * Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
19622 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
19623 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
19624 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
19625
19626 *Ben Laurie*
19627
19628 * Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
19629
19630 *Steve Henson*
19631
19632 * Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
19633
19634 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>*
19635
19636 * Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
19637
19638 *Ben Laurie*
19639
19640 * Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
19641 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
19642
19643 *Steve Henson*
19644
19645 * Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
19646 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
19647
19648 *Steve Henson*
19649
19650 * Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
19651 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
19652 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
19653 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
19654 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
19655 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
19656 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
19657 Ben Laurie*
19658
19659 * Updates to the new SSL compression code
19660
19661 *Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)*
19662
19663 * Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
19664 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
19665 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
19666 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
19667
19668 *Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)*
19669
19670 * Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL commands. Fixed *lots* of memory
19671 leaks in `ssl/` relating to new `X509_get_pubkey()` behaviour. Also fixes
19672 in `apps/` and an unrelated leak in `crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c`.
19673
19674 *Steve Henson*
19675
19676 * Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
19677 created by including its DER encoding. See `apps/openssl.cnf` for
19678 an example.
19679
19680 *Steve Henson*
19681
19682 * Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
19683 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
19684
19685 *Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>*
19686
19687 * Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
19688 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
19689 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
19690 build instructions.
19691
19692 *Steve Henson*
19693
19694 * Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
19695 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
19696 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
19697 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
19698
19699 *Steve Henson*
19700
19701 * Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
19702 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
19703 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
19704 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
19705
19706 *Ben Laurie*
19707
19708 * Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
19709 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
19710 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
19711 so it wasn't spotted.
19712
19713 *Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>*
19714
19715 * Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
19716 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
19717 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
19718 vectors if you have them.
19719
19720 *Ben Laurie*
19721
19722 * Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
19723 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
19724
19725 *Ben Laurie*
19726
19727 * Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
19728 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
19729 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
19730 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
19731 If you do a:
19732 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
19733 it will update them.
19734
19735 *Steve Henson*
19736
19737 * Overhauled the Perl interface:
19738 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
19739 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
19740 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
19741 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
19742 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
19743 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
19744
19745 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19746
19747 * First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
19748 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
19749 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
19750 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
19751 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
19752 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
19753 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
19754 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
19755 the crypto/md/ stuff).
19756
19757 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19758
19759 * More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
19760 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
19761 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
19762 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
19763 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
19764
19765 *Steve Henson*
19766
19767 * Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
19768 INTEGER code.
19769
19770 *Steve Henson*
19771
19772 * Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
19773
19774 *Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)*
19775
19776 * Make sure `make rehash` target really finds the `openssl` program.
19777
19778 *Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>*
19779
19780 * Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
19781 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
19782
19783 *Ben Laurie*
19784
19785 * Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
19786
19787 *Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>*
19788
19789 * Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm` -> `no-asm`
19790
19791 *Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>*
19792
19793 * New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
19794
19795 *Steve Henson*
19796
19797 * Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
19798 few typos.
19799
19800 *Steve Henson*
19801
19802 * Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
19803 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
19804 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
19805
19806 *Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)*
19807
19808 * Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
19809
19810 *Steve Henson*
19811
19812 * Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
19813
19814 *Steve Henson*
19815
19816 * Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
19817
19818 *Steve Henson*
19819
19820 * Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
19821 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
19822
19823 *Steve Henson*
19824
19825 * More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
19826 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
19827 CA extensions.
19828
19829 *Steve Henson*
19830
19831 * Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
19832 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
19833
19834 *Steve Henson*
19835
19836 * Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
19837 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
19838 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
19839
19840 *Steve Henson*
19841
19842 * Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
19843 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
19844 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
19845 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
19846 properly to be processed.
19847
19848 *Steve Henson*
19849
19850 * Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
19851 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
19852 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
19853
19854 *Ben Laurie*
19855
19856 * Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
19857
19858 *Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>*
19859
19860 * Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
19861 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
19862 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
19863 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
19864 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
19865 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
19866 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
19867 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
19868 or delete all the .err files.
19869
19870 *Steve Henson*
19871
19872 * CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
19873 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
19874 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
19875 to regenerate it if needed.
19876 *Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
19877 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>*
19878
19879 * File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
19880
19881 *Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>*
19882
19883 * Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
19884 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
19885 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
19886 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
19887 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
19888
19889 *Steve Henson*
19890
19891 * Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
19892
19893 *Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>*
19894
19895 * Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
19896
19897 *Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>*
19898
19899 * Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
19900 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
19901 error, but didn't set one).
19902
19903 *Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>*
19904
19905 * Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
19906
19907 *Ben Laurie*
19908
19909 * Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
19910 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
19911
19912 *Steve Henson*
19913
19914 * Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
19915
19916 *Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>*
19917
19918 * The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
19919 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
19920 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
19921 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
19922 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
19923 OID is not part of the table.
19924
19925 *Steve Henson*
19926
19927 * Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
19928 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
19929
19930 *Ben Laurie*
19931
19932 * Sort openssl functions by name.
19933
19934 *Ben Laurie*
19935
19936 * Get the `gendsa` command working and add it to the `list` command. Remove
19937 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
19938 was "1234").
19939
19940 *Steve Henson*
19941
19942 * Make *all* `*_free` functions accept a NULL pointer.
19943
19944 *Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>*
19945
19946 * If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
19947 NULL pointers.
19948
19949 *Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>*
19950
19951 * s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
19952
19953 *Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>*
19954
19955 * Don't blow it for numeric `-newkey` arguments to `apps/req`.
19956
19957 *Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>*
19958
19959 * Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
19960
19961 *Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>*
19962
19963 * Add prototype for temp key callback functions
19964 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
19965
19966 *Ben Laurie*
19967
19968 * Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
19969 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
19970
19971 *Steve Henson*
19972
19973 * X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
19974
19975 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
19976
19977 * rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
19978
19979 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
19980
19981 * BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
19982
19983 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
19984
19985 * BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
19986
19987 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
19988
19989 * Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
19990 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
19991 unused in the certificate verification process.
19992
19993 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
19994
19995 * Fix the various library and `apps/` files to free up pkeys obtained from
19996 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
19997
19998 *Steve Henson*
19999
20000 * Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
20001 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
20002
20003 *Steve Henson and Ben Laurie*
20004
20005 * First cut of a cleanup for `apps/`. First the `ssleay` program is now named
20006 `openssl` and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>`
20007 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
20008 line interface `openssl <command>`, similar to `cvs <command>`.
20009
20010 *Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie*
20011
20012 * ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
20013 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
20014
20015 *Steve Henson*
20016
20017 * Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
20018
20019 *Steve Henson*
20020
20021 * Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
20022
20023 *Paul Sutton*
20024
20025 * Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
20026 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
20027
20028 * Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
20029
20030 *Ben Laurie*
20031
20032 * Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
20033
20034 *Ben Laurie*
20035
20036 * Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
20037
20038 *Ben Laurie*
20039
20040 * Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
20041 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
20042 other error libraries.
20043
20044 *Steve Henson*
20045
20046 * Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
20047
20048 *Steve Henson*
20049
20050 * Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
20051 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
20052 be read in.
20053
20054 *Steve Henson*
20055
20056 * Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
20057 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
20058 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
20059 the new set of documentation files.
20060
20061 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
20062
20063 * SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
20064 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
20065 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
20066 number of arguments.
20067
20068 *Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>*
20069
20070 * Fix test data to work with the above.
20071
20072 *Ben Laurie*
20073
20074 * Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
20075 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
20076
20077 *Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>*
