DSH
5 Changes between 0.9.8k and 1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
b6dcdbfc
DSH
7 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
8 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
9 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
10 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
11 RAND_METHOD structure.
12 [Steve Henson]
13
acf20c7d
DSH
14 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
15 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
16 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
17 whose return value is often ignored.
18 [Steve Henson]
19
a25f33d2
DSH
20 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
21 correctly.
22 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
23
17716680
DSH
24 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
25 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
26 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
27 [Steve Henson]
28
0e4bc563
DSH
29 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
30 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
31 several cryptographic weaknesses. The algorithm is also disabled in
32 the default configuration.
33 [Steve Henson]
34
e30dd20c
DSH
35 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
36 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
37 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
38 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
39 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
40 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
41 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
42 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
43 [Steve Henson]
44
c05353c5
DSH
45 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
46 OPENSSL_asc2uni the original names were too generic and cause name
47 clashes on Netware.
48 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
49
d741ccad
DSH
50 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
51 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
52
5f8f94a6
DSH
53 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
54 be used on C++.
55 [Steve Henson]
56
e5fa864f
DSH
57 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
58 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
59 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
60 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
61 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
62 attempting to work them out.
63 [Steve Henson]
64
22c98d4a
DSH
65 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
66 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
67 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
68 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
69 [Steve Henson]
70
14023fe3
DSH
71 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
72 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
73 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
74 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
75 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
76 [Steve Henson]
77
aaf35f11
DSH
78 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
79 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
80 you can do:
81
82 openssl sha256 foo
83
84 as well as:
85
86 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
87
88 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
89
90 [Steve Henson]
3ff55e96 91
b6af2c7e
DSH
92 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
93 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
94
33ab2e31
DSH
95 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
96 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
97
c2c99e28
DSH
98 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
99 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
100 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
101 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
102 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
103 [Steve Henson]
104
8125d9f9
DSH
105 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
106 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
107 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
108 [Steve Henson]
109
363bd0b4
DSH
110 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
111 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
112 [Steve Henson]
113
12bf56c0
DSH
114 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
115 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
116
87d52468
DSH
117 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
118 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
119 [Steve Henson]
120
1ea6472e
BL
121 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
122 [Ben Laurie]
123
babb3798
BL
124 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
125 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
126 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1ea6472e
BL
127 CONF_VALUE.
128 [Ben Laurie]
babb3798 129
87d3a0cd
DSH
130 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
131 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
132 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
133 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
134 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
135 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
136 [Steve Henson]
137
d43c4497
DSH
138 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
139 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
140
141 This work was sponsored by Google.
142 [Steve Henson]
143
4b96839f
DSH
144 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
145 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
146 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
147 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
148 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
149 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
150 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
151 default.
152
153 This work was sponsored by Google.
154 [Steve Henson]
155
249a77f5
DSH
156 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
157
158 This work was sponsored by Google.
159 [Steve Henson]
160
d0fff69d
DSH
161 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
162 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
163 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4b96839f 164 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
d0fff69d
DSH
165
166 This work was sponsored by Google.
167 [Steve Henson]
168
9d84d4ed
DSH
169 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
170 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
171 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
172 CRL functionality in future.
173
174 This work was sponsored by Google.
175 [Steve Henson]
9d84d4ed 176
002e66c0
DSH
177 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
178
179 This work was sponsored by Google.
180 [Steve Henson]
181
e9746e03
DSH
182 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
183 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
184
185 This work was sponsored by Google.
186 [Steve Henson]
187
188 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
189 and URI types are currently supported.
190
191 This work was sponsored by Google.
192 [Steve Henson]
193
4c329696
GT
194 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
195 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
196 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
197 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
198 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
199 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
200 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
201 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
202
203 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
204 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
205 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
206
2ecd2ede
BM
207 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
208 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
209 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
210 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
211
4c329696
GT
212 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
213 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
214 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
215 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
216 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
217 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
218 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
219 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
220 of &errno.)
221 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
222
5cbd2033
DSH
223 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
224 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
225 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
e9746e03
DSH
226

228 [Steve Henson]
229
5ce278a7
BL
230 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
231 [Ben Laurie]
232
233 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
234 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
235 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
236 [Ben Laurie]
237
8671b898
BL
238 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
239 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
240 [Nick Mathewson]
241
3c1d6bbc
BL
242 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
243 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
244 [Ben Laurie]
245
8931b30d
DSH
246 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
247 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
fd47c361 248 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
eb9d8d8c
DSH
249 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
250 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
251 content types and variants.
8931b30d
DSH
252 [Steve Henson]
253
3df93571 254 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
8931b30d
DSH
255 [Steve Henson]
256
73980531
DSH
257 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
258 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
259 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
260 files from the associated perl scripts.
261 [Steve Henson]
262
0e1dba93
DSH
263 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
264 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
265 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
266
0023adb4
AP
267 *) s390x assembler pack.
268 [Andy Polyakov]
269
4c7c5ff6
AP
270 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
271 "family."
272 [Andy Polyakov]
273
761772d7
BM
274 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
275 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
276 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
277 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
278 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
279 to use. For example, specify an option
280
281 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
282
283 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
284 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
285 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
286 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
287 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
288 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
289
290 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
291 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
292 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
293 return non-zero for success.
294
295 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
296 by using
297
298 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
299 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
300
301 where
302
303 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
304 void *arg;
305
306 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
307 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
308 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
309 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
310 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
311 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
312 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
313 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
314 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
315
316 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
317 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
318 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
319 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
320 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
321 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
322
323 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
324 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
325 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
326 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
327 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
328 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
329
330 [Bodo Moeller]
331
81025661
DSH
332 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
333 MAC.
334
335 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
336
6434abbf
DSH
337 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
338 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
339 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
340 supported.
341
ba0e826d
DSH
342 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
343 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
344 SSL_SESSION.
345
346 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
347 protection in servers so again support should be possible
6434abbf
DSH
348 with no application modification.
349
350 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
351 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
352
353 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
354 or server extensions to be examined.

DSH
357 [Steve Henson]
358
3c07d3a3
DSH
359 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
360 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
361 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
362
b948e2c5
DSH
363 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
364 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
365 ciphersuite support.
366 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
367
9cfc8a9d
DSH
368 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
369 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
370 to output in BER and PEM format.
371 [Steve Henson]
372
47b71e6e
DSH
373 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
374 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
375 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2022cfe0
DSH
376 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
377 -macopt options to dgst utility.
47b71e6e
DSH
378 [Steve Henson]
379
d952c79a
DSH
380 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
381 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
382 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
383 utility.
384 [Steve Henson]
385
fd5bc65c
BM
386 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
387 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
388 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
389 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
390 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
391 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
392 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
393 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
394 enabled again.
395
396 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
397 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
398 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
399 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
400
401 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
402 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
403 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
404 the default order.
405 [Bodo Moeller]
406
0a05123a
BM
407 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
408 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
409 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
410 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
411 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
412 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
413 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
414 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
415 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
416
52b8dad8
BM
417 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
418 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
419 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
420 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
421 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
422 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
423 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
424 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
425 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
426 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
427 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
428 kinds of kludges.
429
430 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
431 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
432 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
433
434 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
435 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
436 "CAMELLIA256".
437 [Bodo Moeller]
438
357d5de5
NL
439 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
440 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
441 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
442 [Nils Larsch]
443
11d8cdc6
DSH
444 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
445 it yet and it is largely untested.
446 [Steve Henson]
447
06e2dd03
NL
448 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
449 [Nils Larsch]
450
de121164 451 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
297e6f19 452 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
a6fbcb42 453 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
de121164
DSH
454 [Steve Henson]
455
3189772e
AP
456 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
457 [Andy Polyakov]
458
010fa0b3
DSH
459 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
460 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
461 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
462 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
463 [Steve Henson]
464
5d20c4fb
DSH
465 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
466 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
467 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
468 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
469 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
470 [Steve Henson]
471
472 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
473 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
474 [Cryptocom]
475
bc7535bc
DSH
476 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
477 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
478 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
479 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
480 [Steve Henson]
481
482 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
483 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
484 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
485 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
486 [Steve Henson]
487
f6e7d014
DSH
488 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
489 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
490 [Steve Henson]
491
edc54021
DSH
492 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
493 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
494 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
495 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
496 [Steve Henson]
497
450ea834
DSH
498 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
499 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
500 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
501 [Steve Henson]
502
454dbbc5
DSH
503 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
504 utility.
c1c6c0bf
DSH
505 [Steve Henson]
506
b7683e3a
DSH
507 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
508 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
509 [Steve Henson]
510
511 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
512 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
513 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
514 if necessary.
515 [Steve Henson]
516
0ee2166c
DSH
517 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
518 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
519 to free up any added signature OIDs.
520 [Steve Henson]
521
5ba4bf35
DSH
522 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
523 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
524 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
525 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
526 [Steve Henson]
527
c4e7870a
BM
528 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
529 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
530 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
531 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
532 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
533 the array representation useful in a more general context.
534 [Douglas Stebila]
535
89bbe14c
BM
536 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
537 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
538 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
539 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
540 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
541
542 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
543 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
544 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
545 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
546 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
547 protocol).
548
549 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
550 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
551 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
552 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
553
554 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
555 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
556 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
557 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
558 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
559
560 aECDH - ECDH cert
561 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
562 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
563
564 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
565 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
566
567 [Bodo Moeller]
568
fb7b3932
DSH
569 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
570 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
571 [Steve Henson]
572
01b8b3c7
DSH
573 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
574 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
575 [Steve Henson]
de9fcfe3 576
58aa573a 577 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
c9777d26
DSH
578 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
579 functional reference processing.
58aa573a
DSH
580 [Steve Henson]
581
91c9e621
DSH
582 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
583 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
584 process.
585 [Steve Henson]
586
55311921
DSH
587 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
588 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
589 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
590 [Steve Henson]
591
a6e7fcd1
DSH
592 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
593 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
594 application to support multiple signers.
595 [Steve Henson]
596
121dd39f
DSH
597 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
598 digest MAC.
599 [Steve Henson]
600
856640b5 601 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
b8f702a0 602 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
6d3a1eac
DSH
603 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
604 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
605 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
856640b5
DSH
606 [Steve Henson]
607
34b3c72e 608 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
959e8dfe
DSH
609 new API.
610 [Steve Henson]
611
399a6f0b
DSH
612 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
613 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
614 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
615 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
616 a no op.
617 [Steve Henson]
28e4fe34 618
03919683
DSH
619 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
620 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
621 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
622 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
623 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
624 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
625 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
626 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
627 [Steve Henson]
628
ee1d9ec0
DSH
629 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
630 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
631 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
632 between digests and public key types.
633 [Steve Henson]
634
d2027098
DSH
635 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
636 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
637 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
638 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
639 [Steve Henson]
640
492a9e24
DSH
641 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
642 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
643 key ASN1 method.
644 [Steve Henson]
645
9ca7047d
DSH
646 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
647 [Steve Henson]
648
ffb1ac67
DSH
649 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
650 pkeyutl.
651 [Steve Henson]
652
3ba0885a
DSH
653 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
654 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
655 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
656 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
657 pkey, genpkey.
658 [Steve Henson]
659
4700aea9
UM
660 *) BeOS support.
661 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
662
663 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
664 manual pages.
665 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
666
f5cda4cb
DSH
667 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
668 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
669 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
670 functionality for RSA.
671 [Steve Henson]
672
f733a5ef
DSH
673 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
674 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
675 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
676 [Steve Henson]
677
0b6f3c66
DSH
678 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
679 key API, doesn't do much yet.
680 [Steve Henson]
681
0b33dac3
DSH
682 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
683 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
684 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
685 [Steve Henson]
686
33273721
BM
687 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
688 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
689 [Douglas Stebila]
690
246e0931
DSH
691 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
692 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
693 [Steve Henson]
694
3e4585c8 695 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
f5cda4cb 696 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
3e4585c8 697 type.
3e84b6e1
DSH
698 [Steve Henson]
699
35208f36
DSH
700 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
701 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
702 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
703 structure.
704 [Steve Henson]
705
448be743
DSH
706 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
707 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
708 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
709 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
710 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
711 of public and private key structures.
712 [Steve Henson]
713
36ca4ba6
BM
714 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
715 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
716 [Douglas Stebila]
717
ddac1974
NL
718 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
719 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
720 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
721
722 New ciphersuites:
723 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
724 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
725
726 New functions:
727 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
728 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
