91bad2b0 5 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
93fac08e 6
17004262
DSH
7 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
8 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
9 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
10 [Steve Henson]
11
1699389a
DSH
12 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
13 [Steve Henson]
14
93fac08e
DSH
15 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
16 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
17 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
5b5464d5 18
e642fd7a
DSH
19 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
20 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
21 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
22 [Steve Henson]
aaf35f11 23
96109228
DSH
24 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
25 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
26 [Steve Henson]
27
0c690586
DSH
28 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
29 some responders need this.
30 [Steve Henson]
31
80afb40a
DSH
32 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
33 correctly.
34 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
35
c9add317
DSH
36 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
37 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
38 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
39 [Steve Henson]
40
aefb9dc5 41 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
11ba084e
DSH
42 [Steve Henson]
43
0cb76e79
DSH
44 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
45 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
46 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
47 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
48 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
49 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
50 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
51 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
52 [Steve Henson]
53
aefb9dc5
BM
54 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
55 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
56 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
6178da01
DSH
57 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
58
e1f09dfd
DSH
59 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
60 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
61
376bbb58
DSH
62 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
63 be used on C++.
64 [Steve Henson]
65
19ae0907
DSH
66 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
67 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
68 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
69 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
70 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
71 attempting to work them out.
72 [Steve Henson]
73
9ae57435
DSH
74 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
75 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
76 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
77 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
78 [Steve Henson]
79
5d487626
DSH
80 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
81 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
82 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
83 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
84 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
85 [Steve Henson]
86
aaf35f11
DSH
87 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
88 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
89 you can do:
90
91 openssl sha256 foo
92
93 as well as:
94
95 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
96
97 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
98
99 [Steve Henson]
3ff55e96 100
b6af2c7e
DSH
101 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
102 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
103
33ab2e31
DSH
104 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
105 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
106
c2c99e28
DSH
107 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
108 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
109 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
110 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
111 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
112 [Steve Henson]
113
8125d9f9
DSH
114 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
115 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
116 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
117 [Steve Henson]
118
363bd0b4
DSH
119 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
120 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
121 [Steve Henson]
122
12bf56c0
DSH
123 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
124 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
125
87d52468
DSH
126 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
127 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
128 [Steve Henson]
129
1ea6472e
BL
130 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
131 [Ben Laurie]
132
babb3798
BL
133 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
134 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
135 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1ea6472e
BL
136 CONF_VALUE.
137 [Ben Laurie]
babb3798 138
87d3a0cd
DSH
139 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
140 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
141 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
142 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
143 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
144 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
145 [Steve Henson]
146
d43c4497
DSH
147 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
148 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
149
150 This work was sponsored by Google.
151 [Steve Henson]
152
4b96839f
DSH
153 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
154 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
155 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
156 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
157 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
158 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
159 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
160 default.
161
162 This work was sponsored by Google.
163 [Steve Henson]
164
249a77f5
DSH
165 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
166
167 This work was sponsored by Google.
168 [Steve Henson]
169
d0fff69d
DSH
170 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
171 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
172 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4b96839f 173 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
d0fff69d
DSH
174
175 This work was sponsored by Google.
176 [Steve Henson]
177
9d84d4ed
DSH
178 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
179 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
180 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
181 CRL functionality in future.
182
183 This work was sponsored by Google.
184 [Steve Henson]
9d84d4ed 185
002e66c0
DSH
186 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
187
188 This work was sponsored by Google.
189 [Steve Henson]
190
e9746e03
DSH
191 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
192 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
193
194 This work was sponsored by Google.
195 [Steve Henson]
196
197 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
198 and URI types are currently supported.
199
200 This work was sponsored by Google.
201 [Steve Henson]
202
4c329696
GT
203 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
204 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
205 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
206 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
207 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
208 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
209 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
210 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
211
212 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
213 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
214 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
215
2ecd2ede
BM
216 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
217 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
218 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
219 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
220
4c329696
GT
221 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
222 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
223 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
224 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
225 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
226 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
227 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
228 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
229 of &errno.)
230 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
231
5cbd2033
DSH
232 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
233 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
234 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
e9746e03
DSH
235
236 This work was sponsored by Google.
5cbd2033
DSH
237 [Steve Henson]
238
5ce278a7
BL
239 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
240 [Ben Laurie]
241
242 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
243 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
244 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
245 [Ben Laurie]
246
8671b898
BL
247 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
248 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
249 [Nick Mathewson]
250
3c1d6bbc
BL
251 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
252 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
253 [Ben Laurie]
254
8931b30d
DSH
255 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
256 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
fd47c361 257 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
eb9d8d8c
DSH
258 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
259 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
260 content types and variants.
8931b30d
DSH
261 [Steve Henson]
262
3df93571 263 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
8931b30d
DSH
264 [Steve Henson]
265
73980531
DSH
266 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
267 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
268 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
269 files from the associated perl scripts.
270 [Steve Henson]
271
0e1dba93
DSH
272 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
273 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
274 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
275
0023adb4
AP
276 *) s390x assembler pack.
277 [Andy Polyakov]
278
4c7c5ff6
AP
279 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
280 "family."
281 [Andy Polyakov]
282
761772d7
BM
283 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
284 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
285 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
286 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
287 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
288 to use. For example, specify an option
289
290 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
291
292 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
293 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
294 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
295 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
296 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
297 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
298
299 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
300 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
301 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
302 return non-zero for success.
303
304 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
305 by using
306
307 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
308 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
309
310 where
311
312 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
313 void *arg;
314
315 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
316 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
317 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
318 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
319 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
320 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
321 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
322 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
323 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
324
325 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
326 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
327 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
328 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
329 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
330 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
331
332 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
333 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
334 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
335 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
336 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
337 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
338
339 [Bodo Moeller]
340
81025661
DSH
341 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
342 MAC.
343
344 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
345
6434abbf
DSH
346 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
347 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
348 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
349 supported.
350
ba0e826d
DSH
351 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
352 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
353 SSL_SESSION.
354
355 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
356 protection in servers so again support should be possible
6434abbf
DSH
357 with no application modification.
358
359 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
360 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
361
362 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
363 or server extensions to be examined.

6434abbf
DSH
366 [Steve Henson]
367
3c07d3a3
DSH
368 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
369 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
370 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
371
b948e2c5
DSH
372 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
373 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
374 ciphersuite support.
375 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
376
9cfc8a9d
DSH
377 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
378 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
379 to output in BER and PEM format.
380 [Steve Henson]
381
47b71e6e
DSH
382 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
383 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
384 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2022cfe0
DSH
385 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
386 -macopt options to dgst utility.
47b71e6e
DSH
387 [Steve Henson]
388
d952c79a
DSH
389 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
390 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
391 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
392 utility.
393 [Steve Henson]
394
fd5bc65c
BM
395 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
396 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
397 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
398 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
399 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
400 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
401 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
402 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
403 enabled again.
404
405 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
406 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
407 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
408 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
409
410 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
411 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
412 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
413 the default order.
414 [Bodo Moeller]
415
0a05123a
BM
416 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
417 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
418 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
419 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
420 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
421 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
422 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
423 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
424 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
425
52b8dad8
BM
426 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
427 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
428 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
429 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
430 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
431 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
432 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
433 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
434 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
435 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
436 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
437 kinds of kludges.
438
439 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
440 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
441 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
442
443 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
444 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
445 "CAMELLIA256".
446 [Bodo Moeller]
447
357d5de5
NL
448 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
449 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
450 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
451 [Nils Larsch]
452
11d8cdc6
DSH
453 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
454 it yet and it is largely untested.
455 [Steve Henson]
456
06e2dd03
NL
457 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
458 [Nils Larsch]
459
de121164 460 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
297e6f19 461 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
a6fbcb42 462 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.

465 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
466 [Andy Polyakov]
467
010fa0b3
DSH
468 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
469 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
470 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
471 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
472 [Steve Henson]
473
5d20c4fb
DSH
474 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
475 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
476 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
477 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
478 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
479 [Steve Henson]
480
481 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
482 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
483 [Cryptocom]
484
bc7535bc
DSH
485 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
486 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
487 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
488 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
489 [Steve Henson]
490
491 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
492 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
493 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
494 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
495 [Steve Henson]
496
f6e7d014
DSH
497 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
498 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
499 [Steve Henson]
500
edc54021
DSH
501 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
502 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
503 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
504 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
505 [Steve Henson]
506
450ea834
DSH
507 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
508 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
509 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
510 [Steve Henson]
511
454dbbc5
DSH
512 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
513 utility.
c1c6c0bf
DSH
514 [Steve Henson]
515
b7683e3a
DSH
516 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
517 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
518 [Steve Henson]
519
520 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
521 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
522 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
523 if necessary.
524 [Steve Henson]
525
0ee2166c
DSH
526 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
527 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
528 to free up any added signature OIDs.
529 [Steve Henson]
530
5ba4bf35
DSH
531 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
532 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
533 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
534 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
535 [Steve Henson]
536
c4e7870a
BM
537 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
538 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
539 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
540 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
541 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
542 the array representation useful in a more general context.
543 [Douglas Stebila]
544
89bbe14c
BM
545 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
546 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
547 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
548 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
549 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
550
551 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
552 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
553 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
554 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
555 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
556 protocol).
557
558 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
559 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
560 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
561 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
562
563 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
564 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
565 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
566 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
567 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
568
569 aECDH - ECDH cert
570 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
571 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
572
573 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
574 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
575
576 [Bodo Moeller]
577
fb7b3932
DSH
578 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
579 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
580 [Steve Henson]
581
01b8b3c7
DSH
582 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
583 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
584 [Steve Henson]
de9fcfe3 585
58aa573a 586 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
c9777d26
DSH
587 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
588 functional reference processing.
58aa573a
DSH
589 [Steve Henson]
590
91c9e621
DSH
591 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
592 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
593 process.
594 [Steve Henson]
595
55311921
DSH
596 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
597 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
598 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
599 [Steve Henson]
600
a6e7fcd1
DSH
601 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
602 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
603 application to support multiple signers.
604 [Steve Henson]
605
121dd39f
DSH
606 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
607 digest MAC.
608 [Steve Henson]
609
856640b5 610 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
b8f702a0 611 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
6d3a1eac
DSH
612 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
613 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
614 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
856640b5
DSH
615 [Steve Henson]
616
34b3c72e 617 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
959e8dfe
DSH
618 new API.
619 [Steve Henson]
620
399a6f0b
DSH
621 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
622 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
623 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
624 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
625 a no op.
626 [Steve Henson]
28e4fe34 627
03919683
DSH
628 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
629 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
630 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
631 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
632 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
633 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
634 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
635 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
636 [Steve Henson]
637
ee1d9ec0
DSH
638 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
639 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
640 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
641 between digests and public key types.
642 [Steve Henson]
643
d2027098
DSH
644 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
645 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
646 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
647 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
648 [Steve Henson]
649
492a9e24
DSH
650 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
651 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
652 key ASN1 method.
653 [Steve Henson]
654
9ca7047d
DSH
655 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
656 [Steve Henson]
657
ffb1ac67
DSH
658 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
659 pkeyutl.
660 [Steve Henson]
661
3ba0885a
DSH
662 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
663 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
664 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
665 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
666 pkey, genpkey.
667 [Steve Henson]
668
4700aea9
UM
669 *) BeOS support.
670 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
671
672 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
673 manual pages.
674 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
675
f5cda4cb
DSH
676 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
677 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
678 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
679 functionality for RSA.
680 [Steve Henson]
681
f733a5ef
DSH
682 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
683 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
684 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
685 [Steve Henson]
686
0b6f3c66
DSH
687 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
688 key API, doesn't do much yet.
689 [Steve Henson]
690
0b33dac3
DSH
691 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
692 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
693 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
694 [Steve Henson]
695
33273721
BM
696 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
697 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
698 [Douglas Stebila]
699
246e0931
DSH
700 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
701 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
702 [Steve Henson]
703
3e4585c8 704 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
f5cda4cb 705 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
3e4585c8 706 type.
3e84b6e1
DSH
707 [Steve Henson]
708
35208f36
DSH
709 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
710 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
711 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
712 structure.
713 [Steve Henson]
714
448be743
DSH
715 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
716 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
717 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
718 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
719 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
720 of public and private key structures.
721 [Steve Henson]
722
36ca4ba6
BM
723 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
724 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
725 [Douglas Stebila]
726
ddac1974
NL
727 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
728 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
729 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
730
731 New ciphersuites:
732 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
733 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
734
735 New functions:
736 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
737 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
738 SSL_get_psk_identity
739 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
740
741 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
742
c7235be6
UM
743 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
744 and response verification functionality.
745
