5 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.9 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
8 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
9
10 This work was sponsored by Google.
11 [Steve Henson]
12
13 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
14 and URI types are currently supported.
15
16 This work was sponsored by Google.
17 [Steve Henson]
18
19 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
20 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
21 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
22 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
23 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
24 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
25 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
26 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
27
28 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
29 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
30 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
31
32 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
33 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
34 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
35 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
36 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
37 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
38 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
39 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
40 of &errno.)
41 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
42
43 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
44 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
45 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
46
47 This work was sponsored by Google.
48 [Steve Henson]
49
50 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
51 [Ben Laurie]
52
53 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
54 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
55 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
56 [Ben Laurie]
57
58 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
59 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
60 [Nick Mathewson]
61
62 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
63 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
64 [Ben Laurie]
65
66 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
67 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
68 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
69 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
70 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
71 content types and variants.
72 [Steve Henson]
73
74 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
77 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
78 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
79 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
80 files from the associated perl scripts.
81 [Steve Henson]
82
83 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
84 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
85 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
86
87 *) s390x assembler pack.
88 [Andy Polyakov]
89
90 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
91 "family."
92 [Andy Polyakov]
93
94 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
95 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
96 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
97 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
98 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
99 to use. For example, specify an option
100
101 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
102
103 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
104 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
105 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
106 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
107 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
108 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
109
110 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
111 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
112 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
113 return non-zero for success.
114
115 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
116 by using
117
118 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
119 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
120
121 where
122
123 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
124 void *arg;
125
126 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
127 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
128 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
129 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
130 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
131 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
132 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
133 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
134 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
135
136 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
137 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
138 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
139 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
140 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
141 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
142
143 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
144 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
145 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
146 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
147 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
148 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
149
150 [Bodo Moeller]
151
152 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
153 MAC.
154
155 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
156
157 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
158 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
159 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
160 supported.
161
162 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
163 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
164 SSL_SESSION.
165
166 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
167 protection in servers so again support should be possible
168 with no application modification.
169
170 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
171 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
172
173 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
174 or server extensions to be examined.
175
176 This work was sponsored by Google.
177 [Steve Henson]
178
179 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
180 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
181 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
182
183 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
184 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
185 ciphersuite support.
186 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
187
188 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
189 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
190 to output in BER and PEM format.
191 [Steve Henson]
192
193 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
194 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
195 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
196 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
197 -macopt options to dgst utility.
198 [Steve Henson]
199
200 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
201 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
202 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
203 utility.
204 [Steve Henson]
205
206 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
207 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
208 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
209 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
210 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
211 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
212 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
213 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
214 enabled again.
215
216 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
217 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
218 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
219 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
220
221 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
222 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
223 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
224 the default order.
225 [Bodo Moeller]
226
227 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
228 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
229 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
230 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
231 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
232 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
233 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
234 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
235 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
236
237 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
238 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
239 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
240 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
241 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
242 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
243 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
244 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
245 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
246 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
247 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
248 kinds of kludges.
249
250 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
251 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
252 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
253
254 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
255 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
256 "CAMELLIA256".
257 [Bodo Moeller]
258
259 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
260 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
261 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
262 [Nils Larsch]
263
264 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
265 it yet and it is largely untested.
266 [Steve Henson]
267
268 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
269 [Nils Larsch]
270
271 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
272 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
273 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
274 [Steve Henson]
275
276 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
277 [Andy Polyakov]
278
279 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
280 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
281 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
282 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
283 [Steve Henson]
284
285 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
286 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
287 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
288 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
289 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
290 [Steve Henson]
291
292 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
293 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
294 [Cryptocom]
295
296 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
297 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
298 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
299 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
300 [Steve Henson]
301
302 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
303 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
304 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
305 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
306 [Steve Henson]
307
308 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
309 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
310 [Steve Henson]
311
312 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
313 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
314 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
315 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
316 [Steve Henson]
317
318 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
319 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
320 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
321 [Steve Henson]
322
323 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
324 utility.
325 [Steve Henson]
326
327 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
328 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
329 [Steve Henson]
330
331 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
332 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
333 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
334 if necessary.
335 [Steve Henson]
336
337 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
338 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
339 to free up any added signature OIDs.
340 [Steve Henson]
341
342 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
343 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
344 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
345 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
346 [Steve Henson]
347
348 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
349 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
350 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
351 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
352 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
353 the array representation useful in a more general context.
354 [Douglas Stebila]
355
356 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
357 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
358 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
359 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
360 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
361
362 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
363 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
364 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
365 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
366 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
367 protocol).
368
369 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
370 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
371 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
372 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
373
374 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
375 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
376 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
377 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
378 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
379
380 aECDH - ECDH cert
381 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
382 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
383
384 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
385 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
386
387 [Bodo Moeller]
388
389 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
390 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
391 [Steve Henson]
392
393 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
394 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
395 [Steve Henson]
396
397 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
398 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
399 functional reference processing.
400 [Steve Henson]
401
402 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
403 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
404 process.
405 [Steve Henson]
406
407 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
408 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
409 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
410 [Steve Henson]
411
412 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
413 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
414 application to support multiple signers.
415 [Steve Henson]
416
417 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
418 digest MAC.
419 [Steve Henson]
420
421 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
422 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
423 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
424 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
425 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
429 new API.
430 [Steve Henson]
431
432 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
433 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
434 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
435 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
436 a no op.
437 [Steve Henson]
438
439 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
440 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
441 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
442 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
443 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
444 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
445 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
446 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
447 [Steve Henson]
448
449 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
450 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
451 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
452 between digests and public key types.
453 [Steve Henson]
454
455 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
456 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
457 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
458 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
459 [Steve Henson]
460
461 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
462 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
463 key ASN1 method.
464 [Steve Henson]
465
466 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
467 [Steve Henson]
468
469 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
470 pkeyutl.
471 [Steve Henson]
472
473 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
474 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
475 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
476 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
477 pkey, genpkey.
478 [Steve Henson]
479
480 *) BeOS support.
481 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
482
483 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
484 manual pages.
485 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
486
487 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
488 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
489 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
490 functionality for RSA.
491 [Steve Henson]
492
493 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
494 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
495 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
496 [Steve Henson]
497
498 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
499 key API, doesn't do much yet.
500 [Steve Henson]
501
502 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
503 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
504 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
505 [Steve Henson]
506
507 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
508 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
509 [Douglas Stebila]
510
511 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
512 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
513 [Steve Henson]
514
515 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
516 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
517 type.
518 [Steve Henson]
519
520 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
521 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
522 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
523 structure.
524 [Steve Henson]
525
526 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
527 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
528 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
529 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
530 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
531 of public and private key structures.
532 [Steve Henson]
533
534 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
535 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
536 [Douglas Stebila]
537
538 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
539 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
540 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
541
542 New ciphersuites:
543 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
544 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
545
546 New functions:
547 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
548 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
549 SSL_get_psk_identity
550 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
551
552 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
553
554 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
555 and response verification functionality.
556 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
557
558 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
559 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
560 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
561 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
562 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
563 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
564 server_name extension.
565
566 New functions (subject to change):
567
568 SSL_get_servername()
569 SSL_get_servername_type()
570 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
571
572 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
573
574 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
575 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
576 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
577 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
578 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
579
580 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
581
582 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
583 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
584 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
585 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
586 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
587 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
588 option.
589
590 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
591
592 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
593 [Andy Polyakov]
594
595 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
596 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
597 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
598 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
599 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
600 [Andy Polyakov]
601
602 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
603 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
604 macro.
605 [Bodo Moeller]
606
607 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
608 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
609 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
610 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
611 [Andy Polyakov]
612
613 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
614 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
615 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
616 using the maximum available value.
617 [Steve Henson]
618
619 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
620 in addition to the text details.
621 [Bodo Moeller]
622
623 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
624 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
625 handle several customised structures at all.
626 [Steve Henson]
627
628 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
629 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
630 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
631 [Steve Henson]
632
633 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
634 [Steve Henson]
635
636 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
637 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
638 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
639 [Steve Henson]
640
641 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
642 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
643 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
644 [Nils Larsch]
645
646 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
647 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
648 all fields.
649 [Steve Henson]
650
651 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
652 [Steve Henson]
653
654 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
655 [NTT]
656
657 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [xx XXX xxxx]
658
659 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
660 [Steve Henson]
661
662 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
663 [Huang Ying]
664
665 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
666
667 This work was sponsored by Logica.
668 [Steve Henson]
669
670 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
671 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
672 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
673
674 This work was sponsored by Logica.
675 [Steve Henson]
676
677 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
678
679 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
680 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
681 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
682 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
683
684 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
685 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
686 [Joe Orton]
687
688 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
689
690 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
691 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
692 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
693
694 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
695
696 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
697 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
698 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
699 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
700 [Lutz Jaenicke]
701
702 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
703 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
704 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
705 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
706 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
707 invalid read after the end of 'db').
708 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
709
710 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
711 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
712 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
713 sets may exist with different names.
714 [Steve Henson]
715
716 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
717 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
718 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
719 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
720 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
721 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
722 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
723 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
724 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
725 implementation.
726 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
727
728 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
729 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
730 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
731 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>, Geoff Thorpe]
732
733 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
734 uncompresses any data passed through it.
735 [Steve Henson]
736
737 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
738 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
739 [Steve Henson]
740
741 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
742 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
743 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
744 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
745 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
746 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
747 data.
748 [Steve Henson]
749
750 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
751 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
752 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
753
754 *) Netware support:
755
756 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
757 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
758 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
759 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
760 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
761 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
762 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
763 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
764 platform
765 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
766 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
767 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
768 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
769 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
770 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
771 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
772
773 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
774 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
775 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
776 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
777 to s_client and s_server.
778 [Steve Henson]
779
780 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
781
782 *) Fix various bugs:
783 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
784 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
785 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
786 + Fix ia64 assembler code
787 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
788
789 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
790
791 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
792 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
793 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
794 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
795 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
796 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
797 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
798 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
799 [Andy Polyakov]
800
801 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
802 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
803 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
804 Steve Henson]
805
806 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
807 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
808 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
809 supported.
810
811 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
812 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
813 SSL_SESSION.
814
815 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
816 protection in servers so again support should be possible
817 with no application modification.
818
819 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
820 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
821
822 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
823 or server extensions to be examined.
824
825 This work was sponsored by Google.
826 [Steve Henson]
827
828 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
829 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
830 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
831 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
832 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
833 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
834 server_name extension.
835
836 New functions (subject to change):
837
838 SSL_get_servername()
839 SSL_get_servername_type()
840 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
841
842 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
843
844 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
845 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
846 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
847 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
848 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
849
850 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
851
852 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
853 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
854 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
855 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
856 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
857 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
858 option.
859
860 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
861
862 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
863 [Steve Henson]
864
865 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
866 [Andy Polyakov]
867
868 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
869 (which previously caused an internal error).
870 [Bodo Moeller]
871
872 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
873 [Ben Laurie]
874
875 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
876 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
877
878 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
879 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
880 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
881
882 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
883 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
884 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
885 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
886
887 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
888 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
889 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
890 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
891
892 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
893 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
894 information. For detailed background information, see
895 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
896 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
897 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
898 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
899 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
900 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
901 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
902 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
903 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
904 remove a conditional branch.
905
906 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
907 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
908 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
909 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
910 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
911 remains as a deprecated alias.
912
913 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
914 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
915 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
916 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
917
918 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
919 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
920 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
921 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
922 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
923 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
924 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
925 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
926
927 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
928
929 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
930 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
931 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
932 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
933 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
934 with applications using a single external cache for quite
935 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
936 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
937 in a different context.
938 [Bodo Moeller]
939
940 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
941 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
942 authentication-only ciphersuites.
943 [Bodo Moeller]
944
945 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
946
947 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
948 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
949 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
950 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
951 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
952 [Victor Duchovni]
953
954 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
955 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
956 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
957 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
958 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
959 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
960 [Bodo Moeller]
961
962 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
963 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
964 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
965 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
966 message has informed the client about his choice.)
967 [Bodo Moeller]
968
969 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
970 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
971
972 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
973 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
974 Improve header file function name parsing.
975 [Steve Henson]
976
977 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
978 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
979 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
980
981 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
982
983 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
984 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
985 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
986
987 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
988 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
989
990 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
991 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
992
993 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
994 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
995 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
996
997 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
998 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
999 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
1000 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
1001 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
1002 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
1003 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
1004 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
1005 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
1006
1007 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
1008 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
1009 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
1010 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
1011 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
1012
1013 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
1014 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
1015 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
1016 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
1017 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
1018 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
1019 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
1020 multiple values to extend the available space.
1021
1022 [Bodo Moeller]
1023
1024 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
1025
1026 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
1027 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
1028
1029 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
1030 [Ben Laurie]
1031
1032 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
1033 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
1034 undesirable limitations.
1035 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
1036
1037 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
1038 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
1039 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
1040 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
1041 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
1042 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
1043 to avoid potential handshake problems.
1044 [Bodo Moeller]
1045
1046 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
1047
1048 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
1049 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
1050 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
1051
1052 The latter two were purportedly from
1053 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
1054 appear there.
1055
1056 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
1057 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
1058 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
1059 [Bodo Moeller]
1060
1061 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
1062 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
1063 [Bodo Moeller]
1064
1065 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
1066 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
1067 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
1068 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
1069
1070 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
1071 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
1072 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
1073 [NTT]
1074
1075 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
1076 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
1077 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
1078 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
1079 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
1080 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
1081 [Steve Henson]
1082
1083 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
1084
1085 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
1086 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
1087 [Steve Henson]
1088
1089 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
1090 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
1091
1092 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1093 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
1094 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
1095 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
1096 [Douglas Stebila]
1097
1098 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
1099 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
1100 [Steve Henson]
1101
1102 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
1103 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
1104 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
1105 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
1106 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
1107 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
1108 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
1109 can't be loaded.
1110 [Steve Henson]
1111
1112 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
1113 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
1114 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
1115 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
1116 [Steve Henson]
1117
1118 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
1119 under VC++ build system.
1120 [Steve Henson]
1121
1122 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
1123 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
1124 [Richard Levitte]
1125
1126 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
1127
1128 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
1129 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
1130 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
1131 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
1132 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
1133
1134 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
1135 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
1136 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
1137
1138 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
1139 [Steve Henson]
1140
1141 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
1142 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1143 [Nils Larsch]
1144
1145 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
1146 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
1147
1148 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
1149 [Nick Mathewson]
1150
1151 *) Extended Windows CE support.
1152 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
1153
1154 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
1155 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1156 [Steve Henson]
1157
1158 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
1159 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
1160 smime utility.
1161 [Steve Henson]
1162
1163 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
1164
1165 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
1166 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
1167
1168 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
1169 [Richard Levitte]
1170
1171 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
1172 key into the same file any more.
1173 [Richard Levitte]
1174
1175 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
1176 [Andy Polyakov]
1177
1178 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
1179 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
1180
1181 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
1182 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
1183 [Richard Levitte]
1184
1185 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
1186 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
1187 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
1188 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
1189 this only applies when building 'shared'.
1190 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
1191
1192 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
1193 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
1194 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
1195 [Steve Henson]
1196
1197 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
1198 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
1199 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
1200 - add new function for parameter creation
1201 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
1202 BN_BLINDING parameters
1203 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
1204 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
1205 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
1206 threads.
1207 [Nils Larsch]
1208
1209 *) Add support for DTLS.
1210 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1211
1212 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
1213 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
1214 [Walter Goulet]
1215
1216 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
1217 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
1218 [Nils Larsch]
1219
1220 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
1221 the apps/openssl applications.
1222 [Nils Larsch]
1223
1224 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
1225 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
1226 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
1227 [Ben Laurie]
1228
1229 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
1230 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
1231
1232 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
1233 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
1234
1235 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
1236 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
1237 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
1238 avoid this algorithm.)
1239
1240 [Bodo Moeller]
1241
1242 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
1243 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
1244 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
1245 [Richard Levitte]
1246
1247 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
1248 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
1249 [Andy Polyakov]
1250
1251 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
1252 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
1253 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
1254 pod file:
1255
1256 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
1257
1258 The blank line is mandatory.
1259
1260 [Steve Henson]
1261
1262 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
1263 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
1264 sources.
1265 [Steve Henson]
1266
1267 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
1268 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
1269
1270 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
1271 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
1272 to support policy checking and print out.
1273 [Steve Henson]
1274
1275 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
1276 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
1277 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
1278 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
1279
1280 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
1281 [Geoff Thorpe]
1282
1283 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
1284 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
1285
1286 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
1287 implementation contributed by IBM.
1288 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
1289
1290 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
1291 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
1292 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
1293 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
1294
1295 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
1296 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
1297
1298 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
1299 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
1300 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
1301 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
1302 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
1303 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
1304 [Steve Henson]
1305
1306 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
1307 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
1308 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
1309 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
1310 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
1311 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
1312 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
1313 [Geoff Thorpe]
1314
1315 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
1316 [Steve Henson]
1317
1318 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
1319 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
1320 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
1321 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
1322 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
1323 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
1324 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
1325 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
1326 [Steve Henson]
1327
1328 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
1329 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
1330 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
1331 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
1332 [Steve Henson]
1333
1334 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
1335 syntax:
1336
1337 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
1338 [Steve Henson]
1339
1340 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
1341 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
1342 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
1343 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
1344 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
1345 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
1346 BN_CTX's "bundling".
1347 [Geoff Thorpe]
1348
1349 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
1350 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
1351 [Geoff Thorpe]
1352
1353 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
1354 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
1355 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
1356 [Steve Henson]
1357
1358 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
1359 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
1360 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
1361 below).
1362 [Geoff Thorpe]
1363
1364 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
1365 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
1366 [Richard Levitte]
1367
1368 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
1369 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
1370 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
1371 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
1372 [Geoff Thorpe]
1373
1374 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
1375 initialised value as BN_new().
1376 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
1377
1378 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
1379 [Steve Henson]
1380
1381 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
1382 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
1383 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
1384 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
1385 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
1386 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
1387 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
1388 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
1389 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
1390 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
1391 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
1392 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
1393 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
1394 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
1395 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
1396
1397 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
1398 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
1399 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
1400 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
1401 [Geoff Thorpe]
1402
1403 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
1404 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
1405 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
1406 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
1407 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
1408 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
1409 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
1410 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
1411 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
1412 [Geoff Thorpe]
1413
1414 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
1415 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
1416 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
1417 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
1418 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
1419 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
1420 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
1421 [Geoff Thorpe]
1422
1423 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
1424 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
1425 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
1426 these have been updated also.
1427 [Geoff Thorpe]
1428
1429 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
1430 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
1431 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
1432 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
1433 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
1434 functions.
1435 [Steve Henson]
1436
1437 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
1438 structure of type "other".
1439 [Steve Henson]
1440
1441 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
1442 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
1443 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
1444 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
1445 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
1446 situation in the script.
1447 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1448
1449 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1450 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
1451 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
1452 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
1453 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
1454 used as premaster secret.
1455 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1456
1457 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
1458 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
1459 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1460
1461 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
1462 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
1463
1464 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
1465 control of the error stack.
1466 [Richard Levitte]
1467
1468 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
1469 [Richard Levitte]
1470
1471 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
1472 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
1473 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
1474 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
1475 [Richard Levitte]
1476
1477 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
1478 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
1479 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
1480 [Richard Levitte]
1481
1482 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
1483 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
1484 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
1485 a memory area.
1486 [Richard Levitte]
1487
1488 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
1489 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
1490 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
1491 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
1492 [Richard Levitte]
1493
1494 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
1495 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
1496 the following flags are defined:
1497
1498 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
1499 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1500 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
1501 number.
1502
1503 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
1504 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1505 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
1506 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
1507 returns zero.
1508 [Richard Levitte]
1509
1510 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
1511 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
1512 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
1513 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
1514 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
1515 [Richard Levitte]
1516
1517 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
1518 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
1519 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
1520 [Richard Levitte]
1521
1522 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1523 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1524 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1525 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1526 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1527 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1528 [Richard Levitte]
1529
1530 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
1531 req and dirName.
1532 [Steve Henson]
1533
1534 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
1535 [Steve Henson]
1536
1537 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
1538 [Steve Henson]
1539
1540 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1541 [Steve Henson]
1542
1543 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1544 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1545 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1546 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1547 default implementation more easily.
1548 [Geoff Thorpe]
1549
1550 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1551 in config files.
1552 [Steve Henson]
1553
1554 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
1555 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
1556 [Richard Levitte]
1557
1558 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1559 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1560 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1561 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1562
1563 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
1564 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1565 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1566 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1567 [Steve Henson]
1568
1569 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1570 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1571 to do it.
1572 [Richard Levitte]
1573
1574 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
1575 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
1576 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
1577 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
1578 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
1579 scalar * generator).
1580 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1581
1582 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1583 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1584 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1585 correctly.
1586 [Steve Henson]
1587
1588 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1589 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1590 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1591 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
1592 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
1593 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
1594 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
1595 linker additions, eg;
1596 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
1597 [Geoff Thorpe]
1598
1599 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
1600 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
1601 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
1602 [Geoff Thorpe]
1603
1604 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1605 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1606 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
1607 via PR#459)
1608 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1609
1610 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
1611 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
1612 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
1613 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
1614 [Geoff Thorpe]
1615
1616 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
1617 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
1618 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
1619 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
1620 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
1621 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
1622 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
1623 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
1624 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
1625 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
1626
1627 Example for using the new callback interface:
1628
1629 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
1630 void *my_arg = ...;
1631 BN_GENCB my_cb;
1632
1633 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
1634
1635 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
1636 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
1637 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
1638 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
1639 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
1640 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
1641 */
1642
1643 [Geoff Thorpe]
1644
1645 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
1646 available to TLS with the number defined in
1647 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
1648 [Richard Levitte]
1649
1650 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
1651 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
1652
1653 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
1654 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1655 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1656 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
1657
1658 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
1659 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
1660
1661 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
1662 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
1663 well.
1664 [Richard Levitte]
1665
1666 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
1667 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
1668 [Richard Levitte]
1669
1670 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
1671 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
1672 and a macro that behave like
1673 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
1674
1675 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
1676 [Nils Larsch]
1677
1678 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
1679 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
1680 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
1681 if applicable.
1682 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1683
1684 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
1685 [Bodo Moeller]
1686
1687 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
1688 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
1689 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
1690 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
1691 directory engines/.
1692 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
1693 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
1694 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
1695 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
1696 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
1697 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
1698 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
1699 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
1700
1701 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
1702 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
1703 [Richard Levitte]
1704
1705 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
1706 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
1707
1708 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
1709 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
1710 files while avoiding the low level API.
1711
1712 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
1713 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
1714 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
1715 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
1716
1717 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
1718 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
1719 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
1720 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
1721 instead of the low level API.
1722 [Steve Henson]
1723
1724 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
1725 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
1726 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
1727 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
1728 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
1729 PKCS#7 code.
1730
1731 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
1732 down to the template encoder.
1733 [Steve Henson]
1734
1735 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
1736 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
1737 [Bodo Moeller]
1738
1739 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
1740 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
1741 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
1742 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1743
1744 *) Add ECDH engine support.
1745 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1746
1747 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
1748 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1749
1750 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
1751 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
1752 [Bodo Moeller]
1753
1754 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
1755 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
1756 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
1757 [Bodo Moeller]
1758
1759 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
1760 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
1761
1762 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1763 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1764
1765 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
1766 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
1767 New EC_METHOD:
1768
1769 EC_GF2m_simple_method
1770
1771 New API functions:
1772
1773 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
1774 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
1775 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
1776 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1777 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1778 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
1779
1780 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
1781 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
1782 enable it).
1783
1784 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
1785 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
1786 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
1787 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
1788 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
1789 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
1790 various internal method names.)
1791
1792 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
1793 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
1794
1795 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1796 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1797
1798 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
1799 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
1800
1801 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
1802 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
1803 methods are undefined.
1804
1805 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1806 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1807
1808 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
1809 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
1810 length of the modulus.
1811
1812 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1813 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1814
1815 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
1816 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
1817
1818 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1819 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1820
1821 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
1822 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
1823 used) in the following functions [macros]:
1824
1825 BN_GF2m_add
1826 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
1827 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
1828 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
1829 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
1830 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
1831 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
1832 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
1833 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
1834 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
1835
1836 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
1837 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
1838
1839 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
1840 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
1841 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
1842 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
1843 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
1844 where
1845 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
1846 This applies to the following functions:
1847
1848 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
1849 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
1850 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
1851 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
1852 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
1853 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
1854 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
1855 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
1856 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1857 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1858
1859 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
1860
1861 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1862 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1863
1864 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
1865
1866 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
1867 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
1868 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
1869 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
1870 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
1871
1872 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1873 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1874
1875 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
1876 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
1877 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
1878
1879 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
1880 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
1881
1882 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
1883 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
1884 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
1885 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
1886 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1887
1888 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
1889 functions
1890 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
1891 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
1892 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
1893 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
1894 These control ASN1 encoding details:
1895 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
1896 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
1897 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
1898 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
1899 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
1900 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
1901 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
1902
1903 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
1904 functions
1905 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
1906 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
1907 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
1908 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
1909 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1910
1911 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
1912 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
1913 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
1914 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1915
1916 *) Add functions
1917 EC_POINT_point2bn()
1918 EC_POINT_bn2point()
1919 EC_POINT_point2hex()
1920 EC_POINT_hex2point()
1921 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
1922 EC_POINT_oct2point().
1923 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1924
1925 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
1926 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
1927 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
1928 EC_GROUP_get_order()
1929 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
1930 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
1931 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
1932 adding different types of curves.
1933 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
1934
1935 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
1936 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
1937 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
1938 [Bodo Moeller]
1939
1940 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
1941 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
1942
1943 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
1944 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
1945 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
1946 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1947
1948 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
1949
1950 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
1951 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
1952
1953 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
1954 library. Most notably,
1955 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
1956 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
1957 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
1958 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
1959 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
1960 extracted before the specific public key;
1961 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
1962 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1963
1964 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
1965 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
1966 function
1967 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
1968 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
1969 EC_get_builtin_curves().
1970 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
1971 accessed via
1972 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
1973 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
1974 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
1975
1976 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1977 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1978 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1979 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1980 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1981 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1982 differing sizes.
1983 [Richard Levitte]
1984
1985 Changes between 0.9.7m and 0.9.7n [xx XXX xxxx]
1986
1987 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
1988 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
1989 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
1990 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
1991 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
1992 with applications using a single external cache for quite
1993 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
1994 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
1995 in a different context.
1996 [Bodo Moeller]
1997
1998 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
1999
2000 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
2001 sensitive data.
2002 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
2003
2004 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2005 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2006 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2007 [Bodo Moeller]
2008
2009 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
2010 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2011 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
2012 [Victor Duchovni]
2013
2014 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
2015 [Steve Henson]
2016
2017 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
2018 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
2019 [Steve Henson]
2020
2021 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
2022 run algorithm test programs.
2023 [Steve Henson]
2024
2025 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
2028 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2029 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2030 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2031 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2032 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2033 [Bodo Moeller]
2034
2035 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2036 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2037 [Steve Henson]
2038
2039 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
2040
2041 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2042 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2043 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2044
2045 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2046 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2047
2048 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2049 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2050
2051 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2052 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2053 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2054
2055 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
2056 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
2057 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
2058 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
2059 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
2060 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
2061 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
2062 [Bodo Moeller]
2063
2064 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
2065
2066 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2067 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2068
2069 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2070 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2071 undesirable limitations.
2072 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2073
2074 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2075
2076 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2077 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2078 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2079
2080 The latter two were purportedly from
2081 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2082 appear there.
2083
2084 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
2085 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2086 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2087 [Bodo Moeller]
2088
2089 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2090 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2091 [Bodo Moeller]
2092
2093 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
2094
2095 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
2096 module in FIPS mode.
2097 [Steve Henson]
2098
2099 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
2100 [Steve Henson]
2101
2102 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
2103 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
2104 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
2105 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
2106 [Steve Henson]
2107
2108 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
2109
2110 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
2111 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
2112 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
2113 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
2114 the difference induced by this change.
2115 [Andy Polyakov]
2116
2117 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
2118
2119 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2120 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2121 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2122 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2123 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2124
2125 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2126 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2127 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2128
2129 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
2130 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
2131 [Steve Henson]
2132
2133 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
2134 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
2135 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
2136 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
2137 biased k.)
2138 [Bodo Moeller]
2139
2140 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
2141 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
2142 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
2143 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
2144 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
2145
2146 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
2147 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
2148 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
2149 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
2150 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
2151 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
2152
2153 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
2154
2155 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
2156 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
2157 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
2158 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
2159 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
2160 [Bodo Moeller]
2161
2162 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
2163 clients need.
2164 [Steve Henson]
2165
2166 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
2167 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
2168 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
2169 [Steve Henson]
2170
2171 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
2172 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
2173 structures constant.
2174 [Steve Henson]
2175
2176 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
2177
2178 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2179 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2180
2181 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
2182 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
2183 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
2184 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
2185 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
2186 some needed definitions.
2187 [Steve Henson]
2188
2189 *) Undo Cygwin change.
2190 [Ulf Möller]
2191
2192 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
2193 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
2194 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
2195 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
2196 [Richard Levitte]
2197
2198 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
2199
2200 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
2201 server and client random values. Previously
2202 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
2203 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
2204
2205 This change has negligible security impact because:
2206
2207 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
2208 data.
2209
2210 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
2211 handshake.
2212
2213 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
2214 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
2215 values.
2216
2217 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
2218 to our attention.
2219
2220 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
2221
2222 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
2223 [Ulf Möller]
2224
2225 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
2226 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
2227 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
2228
2229 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
2230 [Steve Henson]
2231
2232 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
2233 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
2234 [Andy Polyakov]
2235
2236 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
2237 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
2238 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
2239
2240 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
2241 [Steve Henson]
2242
2243 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
2244 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
2245 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
2246 certificates.
2247 [Steve Henson]
2248
2249 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
2250 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
2251 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
2252 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
2253
2254 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
2255 has chosen to ignore this fault)
2256 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
2257 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
2258 been given)
2259 [Richard Levitte]
2260
2261 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
2262
2263 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
2264 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
2265 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
2266 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
2267 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
2268 [Steve Henson]
2269
2270 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
2271 [Steve Henson]
2272
2273 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
2274 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
2275
2276 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
2277 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
2278 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
2279 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
2280 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
2281 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
2282 rather than being initialized to 1.
2283 [Steve Henson]
2284
2285 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
2286
2287 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
2288 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
2289 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
2290
2291 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
2292 (CVE-2004-0112)
2293 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
2294
2295 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
2296 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
2297 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
2298 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
2299 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
2300 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
2301 [Richard Levitte]
2302
2303 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
2304 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
2305 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
2306 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
2307 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
2308 for these cases.
2309 [Steve Henson]
2310
2311 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
2312 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
2313 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
2314 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
2315 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
2316 [Steve Henson]
2317
2318 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
2319 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
2320 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
2321 < 0.9.7.
2322 [Steve Henson]
2323
2324 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
2325 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2326
2327 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
2328 [Steve Henson]
2329
2330 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
2331
2332 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
2333
2334 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
2335 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
2336
2337 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
2338
2339 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
2340 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
2341
2342 [Steve Henson]
2343
2344 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
2345 exiting on the first error in a request.
2346 [Steve Henson]
2347
2348 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
2349 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
2350 specifications.
2351 [Steve Henson]
2352
2353 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
2354 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
2355 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
2356 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
2357
2358 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
2359 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
2360 [Richard Levitte]
2361
2362 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
2363 blocks during encryption.
2364 [Richard Levitte]
2365
2366 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
2367 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
2368 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
2369 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
2370 certain size.
2371 [Steve Henson]
2372
2373 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
2374 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
2375 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
2376 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
2377 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
2378 parser.
2379 [Steve Henson]
2380
2381 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
2382
2383 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
2384 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
2385 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
2386 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
2387 [Bodo Moeller]
2388
2389 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
2390 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
2391 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
2392 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
2393 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2394
2395 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
2396 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
2397 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
2398 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
2399 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
2400 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
2401 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
2402 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
2403 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
2404 [Bodo Moeller]
2405
2406 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
2407 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
2408 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
2409 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
2410 [Geoff Thorpe]
2411
2412 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
2413 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
2414 [Ulf Moeller]
2415
2416 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
2417
2418 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
2419 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
2420 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
2421 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
2422 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
2423
2424 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
2425 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
2426 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
2427
2428 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
2429 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
2430 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
2431 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
2432 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
2433
2434 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
2435 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
2436 used by default when no-err is given.
2437 [Richard Levitte]
2438
2439 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
2440 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
2441
2442 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
2443 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
2444 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
2445 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
2446 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
2447
2448 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
2449 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
2450 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
2451 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
2452
2453 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
2454
2455 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
2456
2457 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
2458
2459 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
2460 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
2461 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
2462 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
2463 root is omitted).
2464 [Steve Henson]
2465
2466 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
2467 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2468
2469 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
2470 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
2471 [Steve Henson]
2472
2473 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
2474 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
2475 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
2476 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
2477 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2478
2479 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
2480 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
2481 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
2482 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
2483 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
2484 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2485 followup to PR #377.
2486 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2487
2488 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
2489 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
2490 [Andy Polyakov]
2491
2492 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
2493 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
2494 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
2495 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
2496
2497 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
2498
2499 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
2500 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
2501
2502 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
2503 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
2504 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
2505 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
2506 client and server.
2507 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2508 PR #377.
2509 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2510
2511 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
2512 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
2513 removed entirely.
2514 [Richard Levitte]
2515
2516 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
2517 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
2518 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
2519 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
2520 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
2521 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
2522 of libcrypto.
2523 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
2524 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
2525 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
2526 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
2527 have to be made anyway).
2528 [Richard Levitte]
2529
2530 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
2531 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
2532 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
2533 [Steve Henson]
2534
2535 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
2536 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
2537 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
2538 [Richard Levitte]
2539
2540 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
2541 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
2542 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2543
2544 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
2545 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
2546 edit numbers of the version.
2547 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
2548
2549 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
2550 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
2551 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
2552
2553 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
2554 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2555
2556 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2557 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2558 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2559
2560 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
2561 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2562
2563 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
2564 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2565
2566 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
2567 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2568
2569 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
2570 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2571
2572 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
2573 overflows.
2574 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2575
2576 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
2577 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
2578 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2579
2580 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
2581 representations in a platform independent manner.
2582 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2583
2584 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2585 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2586 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2587
2588 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
2589 indents.
2590 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2591
2592 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
2593 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2594
2595 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
2596 full. Fixed.
2597 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2598
2599 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
2600 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
2601 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2602
2603 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
2604 unconditionally).
2605 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2606
2607 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
2608 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2609
2610 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
2611 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2612
2613 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
2614 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2615
2616 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
2617 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2618
2619 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
2620 CBCParameter.
2621 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2622
2623 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
2624 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2625
2626 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
2627 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2628
2629 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
2630 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
2631 exploitable.
2632 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2633
2634 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
2635 the 0.9.6 release series:
2636
2637 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
2638 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
2639 (CVE-2002-0657)
2640 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2641
2642 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
2643 [Richard Levitte]
2644
2645 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
2646 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
2647
2648 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
2649 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
2650
2651 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
2652 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
2653 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
2654 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
2655
2656 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
2657 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
2658 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
2659
2660 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
2661 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
2662 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
2663 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
2664
2665 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
2666 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
2667 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
2668 some local tweaks:
2669
2670 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
2671 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
2672 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
2673 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2674 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2675 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
2676 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
2677 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
2678 done
2679
2680 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
2681 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
2682 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
2683 [Richard Levitte]
2684
2685 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
2686 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
2687 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
2688 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
2689 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
2690
2691 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
2692 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
2693
2694 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
2695 error in AES-CFB decryption.
2696 [Richard Levitte]
2697
2698 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
2699 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
2700 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
2701 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
2702 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
2703 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
2704 [Steve Henson]
2705
2706 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
2707 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
2708 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
2709 [Steve Henson]
2710
2711 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
2712 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
2713 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2714
2715 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
2716 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
2717 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
2718 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
2719 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
2720 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
2721 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
2722 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2723
2724 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
2725 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
2726 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
2727 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
2728 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
2729 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
2730 [Steve Henson]
2731
2732 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
2733 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
2734 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
2735 declaration has been changed from
2736 int (*cb)()
2737 into
2738 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
2739 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
2740 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
2741 has been changed into
2742 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
2743
2744 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
2745 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
2746 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
2747
2748 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
2749 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
2750
2751 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
2752 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
2753 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
2754 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
2755 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
2756 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
2757 always load it have also been added.
2758 [Steve Henson]
2759
2760 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
2761 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
2762 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2763
2764 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
2765
2766 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
2767 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
2768 because it couldn't be used for anything.
2769
2770 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
2771 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
2772 command line option can be used to specify an
2773 alternative file.
2774 [Steve Henson]
2775
2776 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
2777 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
2778 [Steve Henson]
2779
2780 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
2781 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
2782 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
2783 [Steve Henson]
2784
2785 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
2786 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
2787 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
2788 to work with the new engine framework.
2789 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
2790
2791 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
2792 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
2793 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
2794 to work with the new engine framework.
2795 [Richard Levitte]
2796
2797 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
2798 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
2799 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
2800
2801 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
2802 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
2803
2804 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
2805 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
2806 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
2807 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
2808 FORMAT_IISSGC.
2809 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2810
2811 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
2812 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2813
2814 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
2815 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
2816
2817 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
2818 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
2819 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
2820 [Ben Laurie]
2821
2822 *) Add new functions
2823 ERR_peek_last_error
2824 ERR_peek_last_error_line
2825 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
2826 These are similar to
2827 ERR_peek_error
2828 ERR_peek_error_line
2829 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
2830 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
2831 still in the error queue.
2832 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
2833
2834 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
2835 like:
2836 default_algorithms = ALL
2837 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
2838 [Steve Henson]
2839
2840 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
2841 [Steve Henson]
2842
2843 *) New experimental application configuration code.
2844 [Steve Henson]
2845
2846 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
2847 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
2848 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
2849 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2850
2851 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
2852 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
2853
2854 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
2855 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
2856
2857 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
2858 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
2859 [Bodo Moeller]
2860
2861 *) New functions/macros
2862
2863 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
2864 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2865 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
2866 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
2867
2868 to request calling a callback function
2869
2870 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
2871 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
2872
2873 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
2874 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
2875 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
2876 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
2877 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
2878 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
2879 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
2880 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
2881 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
2882 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
2883
2884 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
2885 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
2886 [Bodo Moeller]
2887
2888 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
2889 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
2890 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
2891 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
2892 the configuration scripts.
2893
2894 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
2895 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
2896 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
2897
2898 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
2899 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2900
2901 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
2902 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
2903 when reusing an existing buffer.
2904 [Bodo Moeller]
2905
2906 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
2907 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
2908 [Steve Henson]
2909
2910 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
2911 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
2912 [Ben Laurie]
2913
2914 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
2915 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
2916 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
2917 has the same effect.
2918 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
2919
2920 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
2921 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
2922 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
2923 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
2924 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
2925 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
2926 exception.
2927
2928 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
2929 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
2930 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
2931 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
2932
2933 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
2934 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
2935 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
2936 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
2937
2938 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
2939 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
2940 won't work.
2941
2942 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
2943 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
2944 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
2945 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
2946 default), and then completely removed.
2947 [Richard Levitte]
2948
2949 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
2950 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
2951 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
2952 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
2953 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
2954 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
2955 particular extension is supported.
2956 [Steve Henson]
2957
2958 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
2959 to retain compatibility with existing code.
2960 [Steve Henson]
2961
2962 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
2963 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
2964 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
2965 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
2966 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
2967 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
2968 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
2969 requires the destination to be valid.
2970
2971 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
2972 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
2973 [Steve Henson]
2974
2975 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
2976 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
2977 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
2978 [Bodo Moeller]
2979
2980 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
2981 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
2982
2983 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
2984 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
2985 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
2986 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
2987 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
2988 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
2989 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
2990 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
2991 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
2992 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
2993 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
2994 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
2995 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
2996 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
2997 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
2998 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
2999 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
3000 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
3001 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
3002 the new code.
3003 [Geoff Thorpe]
3004
3005 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
3006 [Steve Henson]
3007
3008 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
3009 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
3010 become part of libeay.num as well.
3011 [Richard Levitte]
3012
3013 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
3014 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
3015 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
3016 false once a handshake has been completed.
3017 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
3018 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
3019 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
3020 client has followed the request.)
3021 [Bodo Moeller]
3022
3023 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
3024 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
3025 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
3026 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
3027
3028 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
3029 more bits available for options that should not be part of
3030 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
3031 [Bodo Moeller]
3032
3033 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
3034 [Steve Henson]
3035
3036 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
3037 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
3038 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
3039 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3040
3041 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
3042 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
3043 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3044
3045 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
3046 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
3047 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
3048 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
3049 [Geoff Thorpe]
3050
3051 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
3052 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
3053 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
3054 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
3055 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
3056 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
3057 [Geoff Thorpe]
3058
3059 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
3060 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
3061 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
3062 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
3063 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
3064 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
3065 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
3066 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
3067 [Geoff Thorpe]
3068
3069 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
3070 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
3071 [Geoff Thorpe]
3072
3073 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
3074 [Ben Laurie]
3075
3076 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
3077 md_data void pointer.
3078 [Ben Laurie]
3079
3080 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
3081 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
3082 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
3083 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
3084 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
3085 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
3086 [Ben Laurie]
3087
3088 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
3089 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
3090 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
3091 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
3092 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
3093 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
3094 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
3095 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
3096 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
3097 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
3098 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
3099 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
3100 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
3101 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
3102 rather than letting it slide.
3103
3104 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
3105 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
3106 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
3107 [Geoff Thorpe]
3108
3109 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
3110 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
3111 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
3112 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
3113 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
3114 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
3115 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
3116 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
3117 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
3118 [Geoff Thorpe]
3119
3120 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
3121 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
3122 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
3123 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
3124 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
3125
3126 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
3127 [Geoff Thorpe]
3128
3129 *) Add EVP test program.
3130 [Ben Laurie]
3131
3132 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
3133 [Ben Laurie]
3134
3135 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
3136 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
3137 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
3138 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
3139 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
3140 [Steve Henson]
3141
3142 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
3143 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
3144 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
3145 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
3146 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
3147 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
3148 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
3149
3150 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
3151 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
3152 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
3153 Usage example:
3154
3155 EVP_MD_CTX md;
3156
3157 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
3158 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
3159 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
3160 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
3161 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
3162
3163 [Ben Laurie]
3164
3165 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
3166 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
3167 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
3168 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
3169 anyway): E.g.,
3170
3171 des_key_schedule ks;
3172
3173 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
3174 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
3175
3176 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
3177 [Ben Laurie]
3178
3179 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
3180 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
3181 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
3182 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
3183 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
3184 functions prevents this.
3185 [Steve Henson]
3186
3187 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
3188 [Ben Laurie]
3189
3190 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
3191 correct _ecb suffix.
3192 [Ben Laurie]
3193
3194 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
3195 revocation information is handled using the text based index
3196 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
3197 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
3198 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
3199 [Steve Henson]
3200
3201 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
3202 [Richard Levitte]
3203
3204 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
3205 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
3206 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
3207 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
3208
3209 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
3210 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
3211
3212 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
3213 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
3214 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
3215 via Richard Levitte]
3216
3217 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
3218 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
3219 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
3220 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
3221 [Geoff Thorpe]
3222
3223 *) Speed up EVP routines.
3224 Before:
3225 encrypt
3226 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
3227 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
3228 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
3229 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k
3230 decrypt
3231 des-cbc 3482.66k 5069.49k 5496.39k 5614.16k 5639.28k
3232 des-cbc 3480.74k 5068.76k 5510.34k 5609.87k 5635.52k
3233 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
3234 After:
3235 encrypt
3236 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
3237 decrypt
3238 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
3239 [Ben Laurie]
3240
3241 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
3242 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
3243
3244 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
3245 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
3246 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
3247 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
3248 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
3249 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
3250 [Steve Henson]
3251
3252 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
3253 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
3254 [Richard Levitte]
3255
3256 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
3257 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
3258 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
3259 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
3260
3261 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
3262 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
3263 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
3264 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
3265 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
3266 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
3267 callback.
3268 [Richard Levitte]
3269
3270 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
3271 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
3272 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
3273 and interrupts/cancellations.
3274 [Richard Levitte]
3275
3276 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
3277 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
3278 [Steve Henson]
3279
3280 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
3281 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
3282 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
3283
3284 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
3285 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
3286 kind of callback.
3287 [Richard Levitte]
3288
3289 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
3290 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
3291 than this minimum value is recommended.
3292 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3293
3294 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
3295 that are easily reachable.
3296 [Richard Levitte]
3297
3298 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
3299 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
3300
3301 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
3302
3303 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
3304 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
3305 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
3306 needed for static libraries under Win32.
3307 [Steve Henson]
3308
3309 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
3310 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
3311 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
3312 [Steve Henson]
3313
3314 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
3315 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
3316 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
3317 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
3318 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
3319 internally such as S/MIME.
3320
3321 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
3322 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
3323 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
3324
3325 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
3326 applications.
3327 [Steve Henson]
3328
3329 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
3330 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
3331 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
3332 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
3333
3334 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3335
3336 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
3337
3338 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
3339 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
3340 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
3341 handling.
3342 [Steve Henson]
3343
3344 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
3345 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
3346 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
3347 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
3348 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
3349 a window system and the like.
3350 [Richard Levitte]
3351
3352 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
3353 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
3354 [Geoff]
3355
3356 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
3357 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
3358 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
3359 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
3360 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
3361 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
3362 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
3363 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
3364 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
3365 ENGINE structure.
3366 [Geoff]
3367
3368 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
3369 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
3370 tag cache.
3371 [Steve Henson]
3372
3373 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
3374 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
3375 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
3376 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
3377 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
3378 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
3379 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
3380 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
3381 [Geoff]
3382
3383 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
3384 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
3385 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
3386 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
3387 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
3388 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
3389 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
3390 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
3391 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
3392 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
3393 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
3394 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
3395 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
3396 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
3397 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
3398 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
3399 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
3400 [Geoff]
3401
3402 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
3403 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
3404 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
3405 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
3406 internal engine_int.h header.
3407 [Geoff]
3408
3409 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
3410 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
3411 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
3412 modify their own ones).
3413 [Geoff]
3414
3415 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
3416 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
3417 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
3418 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
3419 later on via ctrl() commands.
3420 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
3421 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
3422 structural references.
3423 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
3424 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
3425 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
3426 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
3427 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
3428 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
3429 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
3430 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
3431 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
3432 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
3433 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
3434 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
3435 [Geoff]
3436
3437 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
3438 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
3439 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
3440 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
3441 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
3442 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
3443 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
3444 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
3445 [Bodo Moeller]
3446
3447 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
3448 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
3449 [Steve Henson]
3450
3451 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
3452 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
3453 [Steve Henson]
3454
3455 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
3456 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
3457 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
3458 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
3459 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
3460 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
3461 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
3462 [Steve Henson]
3463
3464 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
3465 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
3466 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
3467 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
3468 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
3469
3470 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
3471 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
3472 generator).
3473 [Bodo Moeller]
3474
3475 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
3476
3477 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
3478 operations and provides various method functions that can also
3479 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
3480
3481 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
3482 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
3483
3484 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
3485 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
3486 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
3487
3488 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
3489 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
3490
3491 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
3492 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
3493
3494 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
3495
3496 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
3497 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
3498 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
3499 [Bodo Moeller]
3500
3501 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
3502 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
3503 [Richard Levitte]
3504
3505 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
3506 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
3507 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
3508 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
3509 is 40 of more characters long.
3510 [Steve Henson]
3511
3512 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
3513 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
3514 pointers.
3515 [Steve Henson]
3516
3517 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
3518 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
3519 [Bodo Moeller]
3520
3521 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
3522 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
3523 might.
3524 [Steve Henson]
3525
3526 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
3527
3528 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
3529 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
3530
3531 ASN1 error codes
3532 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
3533 ...
3534 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
3535 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
3536 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
3537 ...
3538 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
3539 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
3540
3541 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
3542 [Bodo Moeller]
3543
3544 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
3545 suffices.
3546 [Bodo Moeller]
3547
3548 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
3549 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
3550 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
3551 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
3552 and
3553 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
3554
3555 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
3556 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
3557
3558 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
3559 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
3560 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
3561 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
3562 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
3563 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
3564
3565 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3566 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3567
3568 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3569 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3570
3571 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3572 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3573
3574 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3575 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3576 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3577 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3578
3579 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
3580 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
3581
3582 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
3583 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
3584
3585 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3586 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3587 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3588 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3589 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
3590 [Richard Levitte]
3591
3592 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
3593 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
3594 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
3595 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
3596 [Steve Henson]
3597
3598 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
3599 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
3600 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
3601 trust settings.
3602 [Steve Henson]
3603
3604 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
3605 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
3606 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
3607 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
3608 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
3609 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
3610 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
3611 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
3612 ocsp utility.
3613 [Steve Henson]
3614
3615 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
3616 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
3617 [Steve Henson]
3618
3619 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
3620 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
3621 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
3622 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
3623 [Steve Henson]
3624
3625 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
3626 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
3627 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
3628 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
3629 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
3630 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
3631 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
3632 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
3633 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
3634 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
3635 [Steve Henson]
3636
3637 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
3638 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
3639 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
3640 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
3641 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
3642 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
3643 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
3644 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3645
3646 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
3647 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
3648 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
3649 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
3650 [Richard Levitte]
3651
3652 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
3653 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
3654 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
3655 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
3656 opensslconf.h.
3657 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
3658 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
3659 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
3660 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
3661 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
3662 what is available.
3663 [Richard Levitte]
3664
3665 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
3666 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
3667 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
3668 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
3669 auto incremented.
3670 [Steve Henson]
3671
3672 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
3673 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
3674 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
3675 [Steve Henson]
3676
3677 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
3678 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
3679 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
3680 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
3681 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
3682 [Steve Henson]
3683
3684 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
3685 [Steve Henson]
3686
3687 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
3688 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
3689 option to ocsp utility.
3690 [Steve Henson]
3691
3692 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
3693 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
3694 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
3695 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
3696 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
3697 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
3698 the request is nonce-less.
3699 [Steve Henson]
3700
3701 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
3702 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
3703 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
3704 [Bodo Moeller]
3705
3706 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
3707 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
3708 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
3709 [Steve Henson]
3710
3711 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
3712 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
3713 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
3714 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
3715 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
3716 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3717
3718 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
3719 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
3720 appear to exist.
3721 [Steve Henson]
3722
3723 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
3724 additional certificates supplied.
3725 [Steve Henson]
3726
3727 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
3728 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
3729 signature against.
3730 [Richard Levitte]
3731
3732 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
3733 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
3734 AES OIDs.
3735
3736 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
3737 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
3738 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
3739 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
3740 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
3741 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
3742 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
3743 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
3744 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3745
3746 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
3747 request to response.
3748 [Steve Henson]
3749
3750 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
3751 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
3752 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
3753 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
3754 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
3755 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
3756 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
3757 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
3758 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
3759 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
3760 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
3761 [Steve Henson]
3762
3763 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
3764 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
3765 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
3766 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
3767 [Steve Henson]
3768
3769 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
3770 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3771
3772 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
3773 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
3774 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
3775 [Steve Henson]
3776
3777 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
3778 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
3779 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
3780 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3781 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3782
3783 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
3784 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
3785 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
3786 [Steve Henson]
3787
3788 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
3789 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
3790 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
3791 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
3792 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
3793 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
3794 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3795 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3796
3797 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
3798 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
3799 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
3800 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
3801 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
3802 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
3803 [Steve Henson]
3804
3805 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
3806 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
3807 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
3808 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
3809 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
3810 printout format cleaned up.
3811 [Steve Henson]
3812
3813 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
3814 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
3815 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
3816 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
3817 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
3818 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
3819 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
3820 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
3821 [Steve Henson]
3822
3823 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
3824 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
3825 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
3826 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
3827 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
3828 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
3829 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
3830 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
3831 [Steve Henson]
3832
3833 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
3834 extensions from a separate configuration file.
3835 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
3836 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
3837 section to use.
3838 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3839
3840 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
3841 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
3842 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
3843 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
3844 [Steve Henson]
3845
3846 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
3847 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
3848 the given serial number (according to the index file).
3849 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
3850 in the index file.
3851 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3852
3853 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
3854 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
3855 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
3856 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3857
3858 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
3859 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
3860
3861 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
3862 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
3863 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
3864 [Steve Henson]
3865
3866 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
3867 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
3868 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
3869 [Bodo Moeller]
3870
3871 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
3872 file name and line number information in additional arguments
3873 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
3874 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
3875 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
3876 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
3877 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
3878 functions are provided:
3879
3880 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
3881 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
3882 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
3883 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
3884
3885 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
3886 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
3887 extended allocation function is enabled.
3888 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
3889 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
3890 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
3891
3892 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
3893 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
3894 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
3895 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
3896 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
3897 [Geoff Thorpe]
3898
3899 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
3900 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
3901 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
3902 be queried.
3903 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
3904 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
3905 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
3906 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3907
3908 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
3909 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
3910 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
3911 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
3912 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
3913 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
3914 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
3915 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
3916 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
3917 [Richard Levitte]
3918
3919 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
3920 provide utility functions which an application needing
3921 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
3922 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
3923 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
3924
3925 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
3926 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
3927 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
3928 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
3929 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
3930 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
3931 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
3932 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
3933 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
3934
3935 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
3936 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
3937 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
3938 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
3939 [Steve Henson]
3940
3941 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
3942 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
3943 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
3944 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
3945 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
3946 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
3947 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
3948 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
3949 will be added elsewhere.
3950 [Steve Henson]
3951
3952 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
3953 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
3954 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
3955 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
3956 [Steve Henson]
3957
3958 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
3959 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
3960 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
3961 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
3962 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
3963 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
3964 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
3965 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
3966 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
3967 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
3968 to produce the required SET OF.
3969 [Steve Henson]
3970
3971 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
3972 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
3973 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
3974 [Richard Levitte]
3975
3976 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
3977 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
3978 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
3979 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
3980 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
3981 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
3982 [Steve Henson]
3983
3984 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
3985 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
3986 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
3987 [Steve Henson]
3988
3989 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
3990 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
3991 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
3992 [Richard Levitte]
3993
3994 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
3995 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
3996 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
3997 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
3998 code will still work when these eventually go away.
3999 [Steve Henson]
4000
4001 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
4002 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
4003 [Steve Henson]
4004
4005 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
4006 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
4007 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
4008 certifcates and CRLs.
4009 [Steve Henson]
4010
4011 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
4012 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
4013 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
4014 [Steve Henson]
4015
4016 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
4017 entries for variables.
4018 [Steve Henson]
4019
4020 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
4021 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
4022 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
4023 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
4024 [Bodo Moeller]
4025
4026 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
4027 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
4028 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
4029 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
4030 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
4031 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
4032 [Bodo Moeller]
4033
4034 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
4035 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
4036
4037 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
4038 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
4039 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
4040 [Steve Henson]
4041
4042 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
4043 print routines.
4044 [Steve Henson]
4045
4046 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
4047 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
4048 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
4049 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
4050 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
4051 order did not reflect the encoded order.
4052 [Steve Henson]
4053
4054 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
4055 [Steve Henson]
4056
4057 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
4058 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
4059 for now but they will eventually go away.
4060 [Steve Henson]
4061
4062 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
4063 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
4064 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
4065 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
4066 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
4067 has also been converted to the new form.
4068 [Steve Henson]
4069
4070 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
4071 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
4072 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
4073 for negative moduli.
4074 [Bodo Moeller]
4075
4076 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
4077 of not touching the result's sign bit.
4078 [Bodo Moeller]
4079
4080 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
4081 set.
4082 [Bodo Moeller]
4083
4084 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
4085 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
4086 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
4087 type-specific callbacks.
4088 [Geoff Thorpe]
4089
4090 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
4091 RFC 2712.
4092 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4093 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
4094
4095 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
4096 in sections depending on the subject.
4097 [Richard Levitte]
4098
4099 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
4100 Windows.
4101 [Richard Levitte]
4102
4103 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
4104 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
4105 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
4106 be handled deterministically).
4107 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
4108
4109 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
4110 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
4111 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
4112 [Bodo Moeller]
4113
4114 *) New function BN_kronecker.
4115 [Bodo Moeller]
4116
4117 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
4118 positive unless both parameters are zero.
4119 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
4120 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
4121 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
4122 [Bodo Moeller]
4123
4124 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
4125 sign of the number in question.
4126
4127 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
4128
4129 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
4130 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
4131 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
4132 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
4133 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
4134 [Bodo Moeller]
4135
4136 *) New function BN_swap.
4137 [Bodo Moeller]
4138
4139 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
4140 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
4141 results on negative inputs.
4142 [Bodo Moeller]
4143
4144 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
4145 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
4146 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
4147 [Bodo Moeller]
4148
4149 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
4150 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
4151 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
4152 and add new functions:
4153
4154 BN_nnmod
4155 BN_mod_sqr
4156 BN_mod_add
4157 BN_mod_add_quick
4158 BN_mod_sub
4159 BN_mod_sub_quick
4160 BN_mod_lshift1
4161 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
4162 BN_mod_lshift
4163 BN_mod_lshift_quick
4164
4165 These functions always generate non-negative results.
4166
4167 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
4168 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
4169
4170 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
4171 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
4172 be reduced modulo m.
4173 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
4174
4175 #if 0
4176 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
4177 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
4178 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
4179
4180 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4181 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4182 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4183 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4184 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4185 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4186 differing sizes.
4187 [Richard Levitte]
4188 #endif
4189
4190 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
4191 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
4192 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
4193 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
4194 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
4195
4196 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
4197 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
4198 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
4199 cause any problems.
4200 [Bodo Moeller]
4201
4202 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
4203 [Richard Levitte]
4204
4205 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
4206 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
4207 [Richard Levitte]
4208
4209 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
4210 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
4211 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
4212 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
4213 time)
4214 [Richard Levitte]
4215
4216 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
4217 [Richard Levitte]
4218
4219 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
4220 [Richard Levitte]
4221
4222 *) Add the following functions:
4223
4224 ENGINE_load_cswift()
4225 ENGINE_load_chil()
4226 ENGINE_load_atalla()
4227 ENGINE_load_nuron()
4228 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
4229
4230 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
4231 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
4232 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
4233 libraries unless it's really needed.
4234
4235 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
4236 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
4237 declarations (they differed!).
4238 [Richard Levitte]
4239
4240 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
4241 [Richard Levitte]
4242
4243 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
4244 [Richard Levitte]
4245
4246 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
4247 [Bodo Moeller]
4248
4249 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
4250 identity, and test if they are actually available.
4251 [Richard Levitte]
4252
4253 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
4254 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
4255 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
4256
4257 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
4258 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
4259 [Richard Levitte]
4260
4261 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
4262 [Richard Levitte]
4263
4264 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
4265 [Richard Levitte]
4266
4267 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
4268 [Ben Laurie]
4269
4270 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
4271 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
4272 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
4273
4274 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
4275 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
4276 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
4277 different shared library filenames on each system.
4278 [Geoff Thorpe]
4279
4280 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
4281 [Richard Levitte]
4282
4283 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
4284 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
4285 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
4286 of two sections.
4287 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
4288
4289 *) NCONF changes.
4290 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
4291 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
4292 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
4293 binary backward compatibility.
4294 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
4295 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
4296 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
4297 LDAP server.
4298 [Richard Levitte]
4299
4300 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
4301 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
4302 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
4303 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
4304 this case.
4305 [Steve Henson]
4306
4307 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
4308 [Ben Laurie]
4309
4310 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
4311 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
4312 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
4313 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
4314 set.
4315 [Steve Henson]
4316
4317 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
4318 [Richard Levitte]
4319
4320 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
4321
4322 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4323 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4324 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4325
4326 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
4327
4328 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
4329
4330 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
4331 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
4332 [Steve Henson]
4333
4334 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
4335
4336 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4337
4338 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4339 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4340
4341 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4342 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4343
4344 [Steve Henson]
4345
4346 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4347 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4348 specifications.
4349 [Steve Henson]
4350
4351 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4352 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4353 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4354 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4355
4356 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4357 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4358 [Richard Levitte]
4359
4360 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
4361
4362 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4363 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4364 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4365 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4366 [Bodo Moeller]
4367
4368 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4369 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4370 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4371 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4372 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4373
4374 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4375 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4376 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4377 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4378 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4379 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4380 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4381 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4382 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4383 [Bodo Moeller]
4384
4385 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
4386
4387 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4388 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4389 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4390 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4391 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4392
4393 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4394 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4395 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4396
4397 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
4398
4399 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
4400 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
4401 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
4402 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
4403 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
4404 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
4405 [Geoff Thorpe]
4406
4407 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
4408 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
4409 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
4410 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
4411 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
4412 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4413
4414 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
4415 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
4416 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
4417
4418 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
4419 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
4420 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
4421 EVP_cleanup().
4422 [Richard Levitte]
4423
4424 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
4425 being properly terminated.
4426 [Richard Levitte]
4427
4428 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
4429 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
4430 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
4431 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
4432
4433 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
4434 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
4435 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
4436 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
4437 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
4438 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
4439 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
4440 change.
4441 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
4442
4443 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
4444 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
4445 [Bodo Moeller]
4446
4447 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
4448 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
4449 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
4450 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
4451 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
4452 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
4453 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
4454 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
4455
4456 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
4457 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
4458 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
4459 (see [openssl.org #212]).
4460 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
4461
4462 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
4463 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
4464 [Steve Henson]
4465
4466 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
4467
4468 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
4469 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
4470 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
4471
4472 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
4473
4474 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
4475 and get fix the header length calculation.
4476 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
4477 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
4478 Steve Henson]
4479
4480 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
4481 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
4482 assertions could call abort()).
4483 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
4484
4485 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
4486
4487 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4488 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4489 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4490 supplied buffer.
4491 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4492
4493 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
4494 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
4495 by the selection routines (PR #130).
4496 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4497
4498 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
4499 [Nils Larsch]
4500
4501 *) New option
4502 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
4503 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
4504 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
4505
4506 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
4507 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
4508 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
4509 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
4510 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
4511 applications.
4512 [Bodo Moeller]
4513
4514 *) Changes in security patch:
4515
4516 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
4517 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
4518 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
4519 F30602-01-2-0537.
4520
4521 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4522 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4523 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4524 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
4525 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4526
4527 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
4528 happen in practice.
4529 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4530
4531 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
4532 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
4533 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
4534
4535 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4536 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
4537 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4538
4539 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
4540 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
4541 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4542
4543 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
4544
4545 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
4546 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
4547 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
4548
4549 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
4550 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4551
4552 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
4553 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
4554 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
4555 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
4556 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
4557 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
4558 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4559
4560 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
4561 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
4562 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
4563 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
4564 [Bodo Moeller]
4565
4566 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
4567 [Bodo Moeller]
4568
4569 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
4570 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
4571 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
4572 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4573 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4574 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4575
4576 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4577 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4578 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4579 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4580 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4581 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4582
4583 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4584 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4585 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4586 BN_generate_prime().)
4587
4588 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4589 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4590 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4591 better.
4592 [Bodo Moeller]
4593
4594 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
4595 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
4596 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4597
4598 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
4599 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
4600 when using non-blocking I/O.
4601 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
4602
4603 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
4604 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
4605
4606 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
4607 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
4608 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4609
4610 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
4611 configuration for the versions before that.
4612 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4613
4614 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
4615 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
4616 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
4617 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
4618 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4619
4620 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
4621 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
4622 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
4623 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4624
4625 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
4626 value is 0.
4627 [Richard Levitte]
4628
4629 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
4630 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4631 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4632
4633 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
4634 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
4635
4636 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
4637 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
4638 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
4639 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
4640 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
4641 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
4642 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
4643 session cache.
4644
4645 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
4646 using a local variable.
4647 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4648
4649 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
4650 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
4651 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4652
4653 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
4654 [Richard Levitte]
4655
4656 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
4657 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
4658
4659 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
4660 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
4661 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
4662
4663 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
4664
4665 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
4666 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
4667 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
4668 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
4669 [Bodo Moeller]
4670
4671 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
4672 present.
4673 [Steve Henson]
4674
4675 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
4676 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
4677 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
4678 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
4679 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
4680
4681 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
4682 returns early because it has nothing to do.
4683 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4684
4685 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4686 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
4687 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4688
4689 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4690 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
4691 (Use engine 'keyclient')
4692 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
4693
4694 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
4695 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
4696 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
4697 modules).
4698 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
4699
4700 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4701 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
4702 from 0.9.7.
4703 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
4704
4705 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4706 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
4707 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4708 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
4709
4710 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4711 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
4712 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4713 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
4714
4715 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
4716 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
4717
4718 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
4719 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
4720 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
4721 [Bodo Moeller]
4722
4723 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
4724 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
4725 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
4726 become invalid.
4727 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
4728
4729 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
4730 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
4731 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
4732 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
4733 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
4734 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
4735 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
4736 [Bodo Moeller]
4737
4738 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
4739 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
4740 one of the SSL handshake functions.
4741 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
4742
4743 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
4744 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
4745 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
4746 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
4747 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
4748 the client will at least see that alert.
4749 [Bodo Moeller]
4750
4751 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
4752 correctly.
4753 [Bodo Moeller]
4754
4755 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
4756 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
4757 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4758
4759 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
4760 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
4761 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
4762 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
4763 HelloRequest.
4764
4765 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
4766 before just sending a HelloRequest.
4767 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
4768
4769 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
4770 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
4771 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
4772 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
4773 may leak via logfiles.)
4774
4775 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
4776 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
4777 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
4778 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
4779 the legal range.
4780 [Bodo Moeller]
4781
4782 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
4783 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4784 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4785
4786 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
4787 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
4788 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
4789 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
4790 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
4791 [Bodo Moeller]
4792
4793 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
4794 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
4795
4796 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
4797 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
4798 followed by modular reduction.
4799 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
4800
4801 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
4802 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
4803 [Bodo Moeller]
4804
4805 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
4806 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
4807 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
4808 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
4809 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4810
4811 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
4812 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4813
4814 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
4815 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
4816 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4817
4818 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
4819 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
4820 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
4821 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
4822 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
4823 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
4824 automatically.
4825 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
4826
4827 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
4828 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
4829 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
4830 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
4831 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
4832
4833 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
4834 [Andy Polyakov]
4835
4836 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
4837 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
4838 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
4839 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
4840 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
4841 to allow the necessary settings.
4842 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4843
4844 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
4845 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
4846 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
4847 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
4848 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4849
4850 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
4851 dh->length and always used
4852
4853 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
4854
4855 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
4856 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
4857 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
4858 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
4859 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
4860 dh->length.
4861
4862 So switch back to
4863
4864 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
4865
4866 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
4867 otherwise.
4868 [Bodo Moeller]
4869
4870 *) In
4871
4872 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
4873 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
4874 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
4875 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
4876
4877 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
4878 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
4879 always reject numbers >= n.
4880 [Bodo Moeller]
4881
4882 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
4883 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
4884 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
4885 variable) is not atomic.
4886 [Bodo Moeller]
4887
4888 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
4889 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
4890 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
4891 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
4892
4893 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
4894 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
4895
4896 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
4897 little-endian MIPS.
4898 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
4899
4900 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
4901 [Richard Levitte]
4902
4903 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
4904
4905 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
4906 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
4907 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
4908 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
4909 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
4910 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
4911 to traverse all of 'state'.
4912
4913 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
4914 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
4915 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
4916
4917 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
4918 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
4919
4920 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
4921 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
4922 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
4923 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
4924 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
4925 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
4926 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
4927 further strengthens the PRNG.
4928 [Bodo Moeller]
4929
4930 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
4931 [Andy Polyakov]
4932
4933 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
4934 an error message in this case.
4935 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4936
4937 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
4938 [Steve Henson]
4939
4940 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
4941 positive and less than q.
4942 [Bodo Moeller]
4943
4944 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
4945 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
4946 that itself.
4947 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
4948
4949 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
4950 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
4951 [Bodo Moeller]
4952
4953 *) Fix OAEP check.
4954 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
4955
4956 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
4957 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
4958 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
4959 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
4960 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
4961 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
4962 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
4963 paper.)
4964
4965 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
4966 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
4967 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
4968 detect the supposedly ignored error.
4969
4970 Both problems are now fixed.
4971 [Bodo Moeller]
4972
4973 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
4974 (previously it was 1024).
4975 [Bodo Moeller]
4976
4977 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
4978 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
4979 [Steve Henson]
4980
4981 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
4982 [Steve Henson]
4983
4984 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
4985 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
4986 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
4987 [Steve Henson]
4988
4989 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
4990 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
4991 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
4992 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
4993 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
4994 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
4995 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
4996 environment variables.
4997
4998 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
4999 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
5000 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
5001 [Bodo Moeller]
5002
5003 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
5004 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
5005 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
5006 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
5007 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
5008 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
5009 [Bodo Moeller]
5010
5011 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
5012 versions of 'test'.
5013 [Bodo Moeller]
5014
5015 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
5016
5017 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
5018 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
5019
5020 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
5021 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
5022 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
5023 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
5024 CygWin.
5025 [Richard Levitte]
5026
5027 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
5028 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
5029 amount of data available.
5030 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
5031 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5032
5033 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
5034 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
5035 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
5036 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
5037 [Bodo Moeller]
5038
5039 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
5040 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
5041 and UnixWare.
5042 [Richard Levitte]
5043
5044 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
5045 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
5046 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
5047 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
5048 [Ulf Moeller]
5049
5050 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
5051 [Andy Polyakov]
5052
5053 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
5054 [Richard Levitte]
5055
5056 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
5057 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
5058 [Steve Henson]
5059 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5060
5061 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
5062 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
5063 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
5064 (but broken) behaviour.
5065 [Steve Henson]
5066
5067 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
5068 it when found.
5069 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
5070
5071 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
5072 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
5073 [Bodo Moeller]
5074
5075 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
5076 did not exist.
5077 [Bodo Moeller]
5078
5079 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
5080 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
5081
5082 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
5083 [Richard Levitte]
5084
5085 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
5086 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
5087 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
5088
5089 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
5090 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
5091 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
5092 [Steve Henson]
5093
5094 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
5095 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
5096 [Ulf Moeller]
5097
5098 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
5099 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
5100
5101 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
5102
5103 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
5104
5105 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
5106 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
5107 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
5108 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
5109 [Bodo Moeller]
5110
5111 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
5112 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5113
5114 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
5115 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
5116 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5117
5118 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
5119 was empty.
5120 [Steve Henson]
5121 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5122
5123 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
5124 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
5125 but the code is actually correct.
5126 [Steve Henson]
5127
5128 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
5129 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
5130 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
5131 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
5132 and leaves the highest bit random.
5133 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
5134
5135 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
5136 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
5137 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
5138 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
5139 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
5140 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
5141 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
5142 [Bodo Moeller]
5143
5144 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
5145 [Ulf Moeller]
5146
5147 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
5148 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
5149 [Steve Henson]
5150
5151 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
5152 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
5153 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
5154 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
5155 headers.
5156 [Richard Levitte]
5157
5158 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
5159 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
5160 and break the signature.
5161 [Steve Henson]
5162 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5163
5164 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
5165 DH ciphersuites.
5166 [Steve Henson]
5167
5168 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
5169 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
5170 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
5171 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
5172 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
5173 [Bodo Moeller]
5174
5175 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
5176 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5177
5178 *) ./config script fixes.
5179 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
5180
5181 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
5182 [Bodo Moeller]
5183
5184 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
5185 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
5186 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
5187 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
5188 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
5189
5190 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
5191 call failed, free the DSA structure.
5192 [Bodo Moeller]
5193
5194 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
5195 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
5196 [Steve Henson]
5197
5198 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
5199 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
5200 when writing a 32767 byte record.
5201 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
5202
5203 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
5204 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
5205
5206 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
5207 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
5208 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
5209 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
5210 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
5211
5212 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
5213 [Bodo Moeller]
5214
5215 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
5216 [Ulf Möller]
5217
5218 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
5219 [Ulf Möller]
5220
5221 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
5222 [Bodo Moeller]
5223
5224 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
5225 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
5226 [Bodo Moeller]
5227
5228 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
5229 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
5230 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
5231 result of the server certificate verification.)
5232 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5233
5234 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
5235 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
5236 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
5237 [Bodo Moeller]
5238
5239 *) Fix SSL_peek:
5240 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
5241 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
5242 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
5243 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
5244 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
5245 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
5246 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
5247 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
5248 [Bodo Moeller]
5249
5250 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
5251 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
5252 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
5253 happening the other way round.
5254 [Geoff Thorpe]
5255
5256 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
5257 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
5258 [Bodo Moeller]
5259
5260 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
5261 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
5262 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
5263 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
5264 [Richard Levitte]
5265
5266 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
5267 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
5268
5269 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
5270
5271 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
5272 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
5273 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
5274 that.
5275
5276 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
5277
5278 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
5279
5280 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
5281 static ones.
5282 [Richard Levitte]
5283
5284 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
5285
5286 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
5287 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
5288 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
5289 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
5290 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
5291
5292 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
5293 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
5294 matter what.
5295 [Richard Levitte]
5296
5297 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
5298 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5299
5300 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
5301
5302 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
5303 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
5304 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
5305 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
5306 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
5307 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
5308 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
5309 by the Finished messages.
5310 [Bodo Moeller]
5311
5312 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
5313 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
5314
5315 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
5316 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
5317 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
5318 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
5319 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
5320 appropriately.
5321 [Steve Henson]
5322
5323 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
5324 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
5325 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
5326 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
5327 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
5328 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
5329 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
5330 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
5331 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
5332 together.
5333 [Steve Henson]
5334
5335 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
5336 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
5337 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
5338 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
5339
5340 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
5341 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
5342 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
5343 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
5344 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
5345 the answer.
5346
5347 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
5348 been tested well enough.
5349 [Richard Levitte]
5350
5351 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
5352 it can return incorrect results.
5353 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
5354 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
5355 [Bodo Moeller]
5356
5357 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
5358 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
5359 include zero length content when signing messages.
5360 [Steve Henson]
5361
5362 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
5363 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
5364 [Bodo Möller]
5365
5366 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
5367 [Richard Levitte]
5368
5369 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
5370 wrong sign.
5371 [Ulf Möller]
5372
5373 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
5374 packages. The default package contains applications, application
5375 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
5376 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
5377 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
5378 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
5379 [Richard Levitte]
5380
5381 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
5382 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
5383
5384 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
5385 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
5386
5387 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
5388 random number < q in the DSA library.
5389 [Ulf Möller]
5390
5391 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
5392 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
5393 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
5394 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
5395 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
5396 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
5397 just makes things more complicated.)
5398 [Bodo Moeller]
5399
5400 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
5401 from EGD.
5402 [Ben Laurie]
5403
5404 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
5405 work better on such systems.
5406 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
5407
5408 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
5409 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
5410 keyid to the certificates aux info.
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
5413 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
5414 if there was more than one signature.
5415 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
5416
5417 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
5418 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
5419 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
5420 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
5421 [Richard Levitte]
5422
5423 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
5424 rather than always using the current time.
5425 [Steve Henson]
5426
5427 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
5428 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
5429 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
5430 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
5431 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
5432 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
5433
5434 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
5435 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
5436
5437 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
5438
5439 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
5440 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
5441 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
5442 the same hash value.
5443
5444 As a result various functions (which were all internal
5445 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
5446 structure. This will break anything that messed round
5447 with X509_STORE internally.
5448
5449 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
5450 exact match, rather than just subject name.
5451
5452 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
5453 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
5454 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
5455 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
5456 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
5457 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
5458 entirely (maybe later...).
5459
5460 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
5461
5462 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
5463 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
5464 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
5465 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
5466 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
5467 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
5468 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
5469 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
5470
5471 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
5472 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5473
5474 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
5475 to customise the verify behaviour.
5476 [Steve Henson]
5477
5478 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
5479 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
5480 [Steve Henson]
5481
5482 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
5483 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
5484 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
5485 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
5486 request is improperly encoded.
5487 [Steve Henson]
5488
5489 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
5490 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
5491 BIO_write(b, ...).
5492
5493 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
5494 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
5495
5496 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
5497 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
5498 words set to zero.)
5499 [Bodo Moeller]
5500
5501 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
5502 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
5503 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
5504 [Bodo Moeller]
5505
5506 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
5507 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
5508 BIO/fp routines also added.
5509 [Steve Henson]
5510
5511 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
5512 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
5513
5514 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
5515 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
5516 demos/state_machine.
5517 [Ben Laurie]
5518
5519 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
5520 generation and verification.
5521 [Steve Henson]
5522
5523 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
5524 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
5525 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
5526 encode and decode it manually.
5527 [Steve Henson]
5528
5529 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
5530 compile under VC++.
5531 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
5532
5533 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
5534 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
5535 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
5536 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
5537
5538 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
5539 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
5540 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
5541 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
5542 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
5543 [Steve Henson]
5544
5545 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
5546 [Richard Levitte]
5547
5548 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
5549 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
5550 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
5551
5552 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
5553 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
5554 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
5555 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
5556 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
5557 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
5558 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
5559 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
5560
5561 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
5562 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
5563
5564 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
5565
5566 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
5567 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
5568 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
5569
5570 [Richard Levitte]
5571
5572 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
5573 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
5574 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
5575 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
5576 [Richard Levitte]
5577
5578 *) MD4 implemented.
5579 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
5580
5581 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
5582 [Richard Levitte]
5583
5584 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5585 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5586 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5587 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5588 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5589 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5590 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5591 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
5592 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
5593 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
5594 short or long names are found.
5595 [Steve Henson]
5596
5597 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
5598 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
5599
5600 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
5601 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
5602 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
5603 version rollback attacks was not effective.
5604
5605 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
5606 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
5607 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
5608 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
5609 [Bodo Moeller]
5610
5611 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
5612 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
5613 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
5614 [Richard Levitte]
5615
5616 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
5617 these print out strings and name structures based on various
5618 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
5619 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
5620 to allow the various flags to be set.
5621 [Steve Henson]
5622
5623 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
5624 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
5625 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
5626 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
5627 dates to be checked.
5628 [Steve Henson]
5629
5630 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
5631 negative public key encodings) on by default,
5632 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
5633 [Steve Henson]
5634
5635 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
5636 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
5637 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
5638 [Steve Henson]
5639
5640 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
5641 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
5642 [Bodo Moeller]
5643
5644 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
5645 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
5646 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
5647 are always statically linked for now, but there are
5648 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
5649 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
5650 [Richard Levitte]
5651
5652 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
5653 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
5654 Random Numbers.
5655 [Ulf Möller]
5656
5657 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
5658 DSA key.
5659 [Steve Henson]
5660
5661 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
5662 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
5663 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
5664 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
5665 form signing output easier to verify.
5666 [Steve Henson]
5667
5668 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
5669 [Steve Henson]
5670
5671 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
5672 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
5673 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
5674 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
5675 are needed because all other string types have virtually
5676 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
5677 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
5678 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
5679 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
5680 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
5681 [Steve Henson]
5682
5683 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
5684
5685 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
5686 the syntax given in objects.README.
5687 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
5688 obj_mac.h.
5689 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
5690 obj_mac.h.
5691
5692 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
5693 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
5694 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
5695 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
5696 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
5697 consistent name changes.
5698 [Richard Levitte]
5699
5700 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
5701 [Bodo Moeller]
5702
5703 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
5704 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
5705 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
5706 environment variable, or the default random state file.
5707 [Richard Levitte]
5708
5709 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
5710 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
5711 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
5712 of safestack.h .
5713 [Steve Henson]
5714
5715 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
5716 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
5717 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
5718 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
5719 [Steve Henson]
5720
5721 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
5722 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
5723 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
5724 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
5725 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
5726 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
5727 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
5728 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
5729 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
5730 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
5731 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
5732 [Steve Henson]
5733
5734 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
5735 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
5736 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
5737 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
5738 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
5739 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
5740 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
5741 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
5742 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
5743 algorithm to openssl-dev.
5744 [Steve Henson]
5745
5746 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
5747 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
5748 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
5749 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
5750
5751 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
5752 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
5753 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
5754 omit any duplicate addresses.
5755 [Steve Henson]
5756
5757 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
5758 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
5759 [Bodo Moeller]
5760
5761 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
5762 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
5763 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
5764 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
5765 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
5766 [Bodo Moeller]
5767
5768 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
5769 software:
5770 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
5771 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
5772 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
5773 Free => OPENSSL_free
5774 [Richard Levitte]
5775
5776 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
5777 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
5778 [Bodo Moeller]
5779
5780 *) CygWin32 support.
5781 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
5782
5783 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
5784 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
5785 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
5786 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
5787 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
5788 approach.
5789 [Geoff Thorpe]
5790
5791 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
5792 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
5793 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
5794 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
5795 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
5796 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
5797 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
5798 [Geoff Thorpe]
5799
5800 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
5801 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
5802 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
5803 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
5804 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
5805 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
5806 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
5807 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
5808 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
5809 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
5810 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
5811 [Bodo Moeller]
5812
5813 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
5814 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
5815 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
5816 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
5817 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
5818
5819 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
5820 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
5821 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
5822 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
5823 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
5824
5825 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
5826 ciphers.
5827
5828 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
5829 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
5830 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
5831 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
5832
5833 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
5834
5835 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
5836 of macros.
5837
5838 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
5839 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
5840 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
5841 flags.
5842
5843 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
5844 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
5845 any installed hardware versions can.
5846 [Steve Henson]
5847
5848 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
5849 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
5850 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
5851 number.
5852 [Bodo Moeller]
5853
5854 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
5855 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
5856 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
5857 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
5858 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
5859
5860 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
5861 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
5862 [Steve Henson]
5863
5864 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
5865 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
5866 [Richard Levitte]
5867
5868 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
5869 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
5870 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
5871 features.
5872 [Steve Henson]
5873
5874 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
5875 [Ulf Möller]
5876
5877 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
5878 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
5879 but no ssl client purpose.
5880 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
5881
5882 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
5883 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
5884 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
5885 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
5886 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
5887 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
5888 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
5889 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
5890 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
5891 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
5892 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
5893 [Steve Henson]
5894
5895 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
5896 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
5897 be obtained from the error queue.
5898 [Bodo Moeller]
5899
5900 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
5901 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
5902 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
5903 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
5904 [Bodo Moeller]
5905
5906 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
5907 [Ulf Möller]
5908
5909 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
5910 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
5911 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
5912 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
5913 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
5914 [Geoff Thorpe]
5915
5916 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
5917 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
5918 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
5919 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
5920 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
5921 [Geoff Thorpe]
5922
5923 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
5924 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
5925 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
5926 may not be NULL.
5927 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
5928
5929 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
5930 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
5931 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
5932 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
5933 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
5934 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
5935 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
5936 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
5937 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
5938 or "the configuration storage API"...
5939
5940 The new configuration file reading functions are:
5941
5942 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
5943 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
5944
5945 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
5946
5947 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
5948
5949 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
5950 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
5951 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
5952 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
5953 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
5954 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
5955 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
5956
5957 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
5958 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
5959 [Richard Levitte]
5960
5961 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
5962 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
5963 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
5964 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
5965 [Bodo Moeller]
5966
5967 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
5968 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
5969 them in a portable way.
5970 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
5971
5972 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
5973
5974 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
5975
5976 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
5977 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
5978
5979 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
5980 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
5981 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
5982 <attili@amaxo.com>]
5983
5984 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
5985 was larger than the MD block size.
5986 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
5987
5988 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
5989 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
5990 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
5991 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
5992 components.
5993 [Steve Henson]
5994
5995 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
5996 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
5997 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
5998
5999 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
6000 discouraged.
6001 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
6002
6003 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
6004 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
6005 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
6006 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
6007 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
6008 Additional arguments are always ignored.
6009
6010 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
6011 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
6012
6013 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
6014 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
6015 [Bodo Moeller]
6016
6017 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
6018 [Bodo Moeller]
6019
6020 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
6021 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
6022 its own key.
6023 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
6024 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
6025 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
6026 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
6027 [Bodo Moeller]
6028
6029 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
6030 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
6031 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
6032 does not suppress any output.
6033 [Richard Levitte]
6034
6035 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
6036 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
6037 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
6038 with all the associated security issues.
6039
6040 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
6041 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
6042 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
6043 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
6044 use the value in the default purpose.
6045 [Steve Henson]
6046
6047 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
6048 and fix a memory leak.
6049 [Steve Henson]
6050
6051 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
6052 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
6053 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
6054 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
6055 [Bodo Moeller]
6056
6057 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
6058 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
6059 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
6060 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
6061 [Bodo Moeller]
6062
6063 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
6064 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
6065 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
6066 [Bodo Moeller]
6067
6068 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
6069 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
6070 [Bodo Moeller]
6071
6072 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
6073 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
6074 which was free.
6075 [Steve Henson]
6076
6077 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
6078 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
6079 [Bodo Moeller]
6080
6081 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
6082 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
6083 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
6084 [Bodo Moeller]
6085
6086 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
6087 number generation fails.
6088 [Bodo Moeller]
6089
6090 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
6091 [Bodo Moeller]
6092
6093 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
6094 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
6095
6096 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
6097 [Ulf Möller]
6098
6099 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
6100 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
6101
6102 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
6103 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
6104
6105 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
6106
6107 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
6108 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
6109 [Steve Henson]
6110
6111 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
6112 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
6113
6114 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
6115 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
6116 [Ulf Möller]
6117
6118 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
6119 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
6120 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
6121 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
6122 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
6123 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
6124
6125 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
6126 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
6127 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
6128 for example.
6129 [Steve Henson]
6130
6131 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
6132 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
6133 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
6134 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
6135 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
6136 counter, some don't.)
6137 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
6138 counters or duplicate objects.
6139 [Steve Henson]
6140
6141 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
6142 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
6143 [Steve Henson]
6144
6145 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
6146 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
6147 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
6148
6149 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
6150 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
6151 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
6152 or -rand.
6153 [Ulf Möller]
6154
6155 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
6156 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
6157 [Steve Henson]
6158
6159 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
6160 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
6161 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
6162 cipher list.
6163 [Steve Henson]
6164
6165 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
6166 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
6167 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
6168 [Steve Henson]
6169
6170 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
6171 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
6172 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
6173 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
6174 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
6175 should work without changes.
6176 [Richard Levitte]
6177
6178 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
6179 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
6180 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
6181 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
6182 must be defined. E.g.,
6183 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
6184 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
6185 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
6186 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
6187
6188 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
6189 record layer.
6190 [Bodo Moeller]
6191
6192 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
6193 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
6194 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
6195 [Steve Henson]
6196
6197 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
6198 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
6199 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
6200 request header lines. Some software needs this.
6201 [Steve Henson]
6202
6203 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
6204 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
6205 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
6206 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
6207 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
6208 is prompted for as usual.
6209 [Steve Henson]
6210
6211 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
6212 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
6213 autodetect the card and use it if present.
6214 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
6215
6216 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
6217 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
6218 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
6219 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
6220 [Steve Henson]
6221
6222 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
6223 [Andy Polyakov]
6224
6225 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
6226 of seed file.
6227 [Steve Henson]
6228
6229 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
6230 [Bodo Moeller]
6231
6232 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
6233 [Steve Henson]
6234
6235 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
6236 bits.
6237 [Ulf Möller]
6238
6239 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
6240 [Ulf Möller]
6241
6242 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
6243 [Andy Polyakov]
6244
6245 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
6246 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
6247 [Ulf Möller]
6248
6249 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
6250 options to produce them.
6251 [Steve Henson]
6252
6253 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
6254 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
6255 [Ulf Möller]
6256
6257 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
6258 for p == 0.
6259 [Ulf Möller]
6260
6261 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
6262 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
6263 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
6264 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
6265 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
6266 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
6267 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
6268 [Steve Henson]
6269
6270 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
6271 [Steve Henson]
6272
6273 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
6274 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
6275 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
6276 [Bodo Moeller]
6277
6278 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
6279 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
6280
6281 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
6282 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
6283 [Ulf Möller]
6284
6285 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
6286 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
6287 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
6288 has already seen).
6289 [Bodo Moeller]
6290
6291 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
6292 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
6293
6294 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
6295 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
6296 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
6297 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
6298 generation becomes much faster.
6299
6300 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
6301 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
6302 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
6303 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
6304 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
6305 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
6306 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
6307 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
6308 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
6309 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
6310 [Bodo Moeller]
6311
6312 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
6313 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
6314 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
6315 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
6316 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
6317 trial division stage.
6318 [Bodo Moeller]
6319
6320 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
6321 as ASN1_TIME.
6322 [Steve Henson]
6323
6324 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
6325 [Steve Henson]
6326
6327 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
6328 [Ulf Möller]
6329
6330 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
6331 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
6332 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
6333 the comments.
6334 [Ulf Möller]
6335
6336 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
6337 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
6338 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
6339 [Bodo Moeller]
6340
6341 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
6342 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
6343 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
6344 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6345
6346 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
6347 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
6348 [Steve Henson]
6349
6350 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
6351 [Ulf Möller]
6352
6353 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
6354 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
6355 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
6356 Rabin-Miller iterations.
6357 [Ulf Möller]
6358
6359 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
6360 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
6361 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
6362 [Ulf Möller]
6363
6364 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
6365 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
6366 (instead of parameters) in future.
6367 [Steve Henson]
6368
6369 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
6370 when a new cipher list is set.
6371 [Steve Henson]
6372
6373 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
6374 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
6375 wrong.
6376
6377 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
6378 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
6379 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
6380
6381 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
6382 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
6383 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
6384 an error is flagged.
6385
6386 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
6387 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
6388 the readability was also increased :-)
6389 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6390
6391 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
6392 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
6393 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
6394 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
6395 as the root CA.
6396 [Steve Henson]
6397
6398 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
6399 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
6400 [Steve Henson]
6401
6402 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
6403 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
6404 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
6405 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
6406 instead.
6407
6408 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
6409 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
6410 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
6411 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
6412 because they handle more complex structures.)
6413 [Steve Henson]
6414
6415 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
6416 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
6417 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
6418 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
6419
6420 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
6421 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
6422 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
6423 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
6424 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
6425 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
6426 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
6427 [Ulf Möller]
6428
6429 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
6430 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
6431 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
6432 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
6433 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
6434 [Bodo Moeller]
6435
6436 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
6437 [Bodo Moeller]
6438
6439 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
6440 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
6441 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
6442 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
6443 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
6444 to use this.
6445
6446 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
6447 code.
6448 [Steve Henson]
6449
6450 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
6451 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
6452 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
6453 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
6454 [Steve Henson]
6455
6456 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
6457 [Ulf Möller]
6458
6459 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
6460 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
6461 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
6462 international characters are used.
6463
6464 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
6465 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
6466 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
6467 in ASN1 order.
6468 [Steve Henson]
6469
6470 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
6471 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
6472 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
6473 request.
6474
6475 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
6476 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
6477 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
6478 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
6479 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
6480 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
6481
6482 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
6483 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
6484 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
6485 be handled by the string table functions.
6486
6487 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
6488 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
6489 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
6490 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
6491 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
6492 types at all.
6493 [Steve Henson]
6494
6495 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
6496 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
6497 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
6498 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
6499 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
6500
6501 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
6502 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
6503 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
6504 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
6505 [Bodo Moeller]
6506
6507 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
6508 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
6509 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
6510 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
6511 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
6512 SHA1.
6513 [Andy Polyakov]
6514
6515 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
6516 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
6517 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
6518 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
6519 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
6520 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
6521 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
6522 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
6523
6524 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
6525 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
6526 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
6527 [Steve Henson]
6528
6529 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
6530 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
6531 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
6532 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
6533 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
6534 support to pkcs8 application.
6535 [Steve Henson]
6536
6537 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
6538 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
6539 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
6540 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
6541 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
6542 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
6543 [Bodo Moeller]
6544
6545 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
6546 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
6547 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
6548 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
6549 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
6550 consistency.
6551 [Bodo Moeller]
6552
6553 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
6554 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
6555 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
6556 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
6557 example.
6558 [Steve Henson]
6559
6560 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
6561 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
6562 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
6563 and any application specific purposes.
6564
6565 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6566 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6567 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6568 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
6569 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
6570 if the certificate is self signed.
6571 [Steve Henson]
6572
6573 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6574 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6575 [Steve Henson]
6576
6577 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6578 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
6579 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
6580 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6581 [Steve Henson]
6582
6583 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6584 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6585 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6586 Update documentation.
6587 [Steve Henson]
6588
6589 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6590 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
6591 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
6592 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
6593 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
6594 [Steve Henson]
6595
6596 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
6597 for details.
6598 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
6599
6600 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
6601 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
6602 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
6603 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
6604 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
6605 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
6606 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
6607 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
6608 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
6609 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
6610
6611 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
6612
6613 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6614 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6615 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
6616 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
6617 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
6618
6619 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
6620 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
6621 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
6622 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
6623 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
6624 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
6625 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
6626 request additional information:
6627 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
6628 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
6629
6630 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
6631 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
6632 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
6633 options.
6634
6635 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
6636 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
6637
6638 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
6639 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
6640 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
6641
6642 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
6643 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6644
6645 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
6646 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
6647 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
6648 algorithm.
6649 [Steve Henson]
6650
6651 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
6652 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
6653 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
6654
6655 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
6656 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
6657 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
6658 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
6659 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
6660 included in OpenSSL.
6661 [Steve Henson]
6662
6663 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
6664 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
6665 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
6666 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
6667 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
6668 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
6669 [Bodo Moeller]
6670
6671 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
6672 PKCS12 structure.
6673 [Steve Henson]
6674
6675 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
6676 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
6677 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
6678 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
6679 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
6680 structure.
6681 [Steve Henson]
6682
6683 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
6684 need initialising.
6685 [Steve Henson]
6686
6687 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
6688 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
6689 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
6690 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
6691 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
6692 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
6693 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
6694 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
6695 be maintained manually.
6696
6697 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
6698 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
6699 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
6700 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
6701 work because people forget to call this function]
6702 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
6703 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
6704 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
6705 [Steve Henson]
6706
6707 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
6708 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
6709 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
6710 should be discouraged from doing it.
6711 [Ben Laurie]
6712
6713 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
6714 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
6715 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
6716 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
6717 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
6718 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
6719 [Steve Henson]
6720
6721 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
6722 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
6723 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
6724
6725 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
6726 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
6727 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
6728
6729 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
6730 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
6731 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
6732 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
6733 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
6734 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
6735
6736 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
6737 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
6738 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
6739
6740 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
6741 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
6742 and vice versa.
6743
6744 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
6745 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
6746 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
6747 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
6748 [Steve Henson]
6749
6750 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
6751 [Steve Henson]
6752
6753 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
6754 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
6755 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
6756 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
6757 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
6758 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
6759 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
6760 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
6761 keys so we should be OK.
6762
6763 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
6764 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
6765 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
6766 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
6767 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
6768 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
6769 stay in the name of compatibility.
6770
6771 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
6772 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
6773 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
6774
6775 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
6776 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
6777 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
6778 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
6779 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
6780 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
6781 supplied key).
6782 [Steve Henson]
6783
6784 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
6785 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
6786 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
6787 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
6788 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
6789 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
6790 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
6791 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
6792 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
6793 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
6794 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
6795 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
6796 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
6797 [Steve Henson]
6798
6799 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
6800 [Steve Henson]
6801
6802 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
6803 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
6804 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
6805 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
6806 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
6807 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
6808 single self signed certificate. This means that:
6809 openssl verify ss.pem
6810 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
6811 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
6812 is OK.
6813 [Steve Henson]
6814
6815 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
6816 (and add it to external session representation).
6817 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
6818 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
6819 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
6820 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
6821 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
6822 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
6823 security holes.
6824 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
6825
6826 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
6827 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
6828 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
6829 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
6830
6831 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
6832 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
6833 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
6834 [Steve Henson]
6835
6836 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
6837 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
6838 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
6839 code.
6840 [Steve Henson]
6841
6842 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
6843 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
6844 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
6845
6846 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
6847 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
6848 certificate auxiliary information.
6849 [Steve Henson]
6850
6851 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
6852 the 'enc' command.
6853 [Steve Henson]
6854
6855 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
6856 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
6857 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
6858 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
6859 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
6860 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
6861 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
6862 [Richard Levitte]
6863
6864 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
6865 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
6866 [Steve Henson]
6867
6868 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
6869 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
6870 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
6871 manpages and fix a few bugs.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
6874 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
6875 [Steve Henson]
6876
6877 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
6878 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
6879 [Steve Henson]
6880
6881 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
6882 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
6883 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
6884 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
6885 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
6886 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
6887 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
6888 using the new 'x509' options.
6889
6890 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
6891 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
6892 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
6893 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
6894 for all purposes.
6895 [Steve Henson]
6896
6897 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
6898 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
6899 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
6900 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
6901 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
6902 [Mark Cox]
6903
6904 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
6905 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
6906 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
6907 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
6908 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
6909 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
6910 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
6911 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
6912 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
6913 the key length and effective key length are equal.
6914 [Steve Henson]
6915
6916 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
6917 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
6918 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
6919 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
6920 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
6921 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
6922 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
6923 [Steve Henson]
6924
6925 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
6926 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
6927 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
6928 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
6929 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
6930 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
6931 openssl.cnf for more info.
6932 [Steve Henson]
6933
6934 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
6935 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
6936 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
6937 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
6938 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
6939 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
6940 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
6941 md should be large enough anyway.
6942 [Bodo Moeller]
6943
6944 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
6945 for handling the random seed file.
6946
6947 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
6948 ca,
6949 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
6950 s_client,
6951 s_server,
6952 x509 (when signing).
6953 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
6954 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
6955 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
6956
6957 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
6958 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
6959 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
6960 that support '-rand'.
6961 [Bodo Moeller]
6962
6963 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
6964 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
6965 [Bodo Moeller]
6966
6967 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
6968 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
6969 [Bill Perry]
6970
6971 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
6972 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
6973 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
6974 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
6975 is suitable.
6976 [Steve Henson]
6977
6978 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
6979 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
6980 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
6981 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
6982 [Steve Henson]
6983
6984 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
6985 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
6986 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
6987 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
6988 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
6989 print out all the purposes.
6990 [Steve Henson]
6991
6992 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
6993 functions.
6994 [Steve Henson]
6995
6996 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
6997 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
6998 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
6999 single function call.
7000 [Steve Henson]
7001
7002 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
7003 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
7004 [Andy Polyakov]
7005
7006 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
7007 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
7008 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
7009 [Steve Henson]
7010
7011 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
7012 when producing the local key id.
7013 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7014
7015 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
7016 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
7017 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
7018 "server.pem".
7019 [Steve Henson]
7020
7021 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
7022 a public key to be input or output. For example:
7023 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
7024 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
7025 [Steve Henson]
7026
7027 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
7028 in the message. This was handled by allowing
7029 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
7030 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
7031
7032 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
7033 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
7034 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
7035 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7036
7037 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
7038 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
7039 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
7040 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
7041 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
7042 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
7043 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
7044 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
7045 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
7046 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
7047 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
7048 trivial: move one line.
7049 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
7050
7051 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
7052 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
7053 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
7054 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
7055 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
7056 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
7057 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
7058 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
7059 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
7060 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
7061 with an event loop for example.
7062 [Steve Henson]
7063
7064 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
7065 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
7066 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
7067 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
7068 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
7069 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
7070 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
7071 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
7072 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
7073 [Steve Henson]
7074
7075 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
7076 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
7077 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
7078 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
7079 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
7080 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
7081 [Steve Henson]
7082
7083 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
7084 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
7085 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
7086 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
7087
7088 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
7089 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
7090 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
7091 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
7092 key generation.
7093 [Steve Henson]
7094
7095 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
7096 (still largely untested)
7097 [Bodo Moeller]
7098
7099 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
7100 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
7101 [Steve Henson]
7102
7103 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
7104 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
7105 [Steve Henson]
7106
7107 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
7108 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
7109 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
7110 [Bodo Moeller]
7111
7112 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
7113 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
7114 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
7115 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
7116 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
7117 [Steve Henson]
7118
7119 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
7120 [Andy Polyakov]
7121
7122 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
7123 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
7124 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
7125 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
7126 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
7127 in ca.
7128 [Steve Henson]
7129
7130 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
7131 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
7132 1.OU="Unit name 1"
7133 2.OU="Unit name 2"
7134 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
7135 [Steve Henson]
7136
7137 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
7138 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
7139 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
7140 are otherwise ignored at present.
7141 [Steve Henson]
7142
7143 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
7144 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
7145 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
7146 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
7147 copied until the next read.
7148 [Steve Henson]
7149
7150 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
7151 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
7152 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
7153 [Steve Henson]
7154
7155 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
7156 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
7157 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
7158 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
7159 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
7160 associated functions.
7161 [Steve Henson]
7162
7163 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
7164 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
7165 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
7166 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
7167 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
7168 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
7169 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
7170 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
7171 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
7172 memory BIOs.
7173 [Steve Henson]
7174
7175 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
7176 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
7177 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
7178 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
7179 [Bodo Moeller]
7180
7181 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
7182 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
7183 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
7184 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
7185 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
7186 functionality.
7187 [Steve Henson]
7188
7189 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
7190 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
7191 under Win32.
7192 [Steve Henson]
7193
7194 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
7195 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
7196 extensions to be obtained and added.
7197 [Steve Henson]
7198
7199 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
7200 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
7201 [Bodo Moeller]
7202
7203 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
7204
7205 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
7206 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7207
7208 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
7209 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
7210
7211 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
7212 program.
7213 [Steve Henson]
7214
7215 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
7216 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
7217 DH parameters contain its length).
7218
7219 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
7220 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
7221 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
7222 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
7223 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
7224 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
7225 utter importance to use
7226 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7227 or
7228 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7229 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
7230 attacks may become possible!
7231 [Bodo Moeller]
7232
7233 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
7234 [Bodo Moeller]
7235
7236 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
7237 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
7238 [Steve Henson]
7239
7240 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
7241 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
7242 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
7243 or long name.
7244 [Steve Henson]
7245
7246 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
7247 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
7248 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
7249 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
7250 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
7251 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
7252 private key operations.
7253 [Steve Henson]
7254
7255 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
7256 [Andy Polyakov]
7257
7258 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
7259 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
7260 to
7261 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
7262 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
7263 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
7264 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
7265 the password callback is called.
7266 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
7267
7268 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
7269
7270 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
7271 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
7272 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
7273 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
7274 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
7275 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
7276 this will work.
7277
7278 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
7279 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
7280 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
7281 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
7282 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
7283 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
7284 [Bodo Moeller]
7285
7286 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
7287 [Andy Polyakov]
7288
7289 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
7290 delete an unused file.
7291 [Ulf Möller]
7292
7293 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
7294 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
7295 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
7296 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
7297 [Steve Henson]
7298
7299 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
7300 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
7301 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
7302 of an error.
7303 [Bodo Moeller]
7304
7305 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
7306 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
7307 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7308
7309 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
7310 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
7311 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
7312 comparison" warnings.
7313 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
7314 [Steve Henson]
7315
7316 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
7317 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
7318 derived keys are printed to stderr.
7319 [Steve Henson]
7320
7321 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
7322 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
7323
7324 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
7325 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
7326
7327 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
7328 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
7329 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
7330
7331 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
7332 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
7333 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
7334 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
7335 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
7336 this bug.
7337 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
7338
7339 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
7340 The interface is as follows:
7341 Applications can use
7342 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
7343 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
7344 "off" is now the default.
7345 The library internally uses
7346 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
7347 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
7348 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
7349
7350 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
7351 even the default) are now avoided.
7352
7353 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
7354 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
7355 than just having a counter.
7356
7357 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
7358
7359 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
7360 extensions.
7361 [Bodo Moeller]
7362
7363 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
7364 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
7365 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
7366 Initial "mode" flags are:
7367
7368 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
7369 a single record has been written.
7370 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
7371 retries use the same buffer location.
7372 (But all of the contents must be
7373 copied!)
7374 [Bodo Moeller]
7375
7376 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
7377 worked.
7378
7379 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
7380 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
7381
7382 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
7383 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
7384 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
7385 [Steve Henson]
7386
7387 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
7388 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
7389 test programs.
7390 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
7391
7392 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
7393 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
7394 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
7395 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
7396 point to the end.
7397 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
7398 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
7399
7400 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
7401 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
7402 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
7403 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
7404 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
7405 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
7406 [Steve Henson]
7407
7408 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
7409 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
7410 necessary function names.
7411 [Steve Henson]
7412
7413 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
7414 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
7415 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
7416 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
7417 [Bodo Moeller]
7418
7419 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
7420 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
7421 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
7422 [Steve Henson]
7423
7424 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
7425 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
7426 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
7427 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
7428 such programs?)
7429 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
7430 need locks.
7431 [Bodo Moeller]
7432
7433 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
7434 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
7435 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
7436 [Bodo Moeller]
7437
7438 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
7439 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
7440 appropriate.
7441 [Bodo Moeller]
7442
7443 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
7444 for the encoded length.
7445 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
7446
7447 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
7448 [Steve Henson]
7449
7450 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
7451 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
7452 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
7453 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
7454 [Steve Henson]
7455
7456 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
7457 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
7458 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7459
7460 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
7461 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
7462 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
7463 unusual formatting.
7464 [Steve Henson]
7465
7466 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
7467 to use the new extension code.
7468 [Steve Henson]
7469
7470 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
7471 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
7472 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
7473 constant.
7474 [Steve Henson]
7475
7476 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
7477 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
7478 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
7479 [Bodo Moeller]
7480
7481 #if 0
7482 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
7483 [Ben Laurie]
7484 #else
7485 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
7486 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
7487 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
7488 #endif
7489
7490 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
7491 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
7492 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
7493 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
7494 [Ben Laurie]
7495
7496 *) DES library cleanups.
7497 [Ulf Möller]
7498
7499 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
7500 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
7501 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
7502 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
7503 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
7504 of v2.0.
7505 [Steve Henson]
7506
7507 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
7508 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
7509 [Bodo Moeller]
7510
7511 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
7512 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
7513 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
7514 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
7515 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
7516 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
7517 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
7518 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
7519 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
7520 [Steve Henson]
7521
7522 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
7523 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
7524 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
7525 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
7526 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
7527 value doesn't matter.
7528 [Steve Henson]
7529
7530 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
7531 support mutable.
7532 [Ben Laurie]
7533
7534 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
7535 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
7536 "linux-sparc" configuration.
7537 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
7538
7539 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
7540 [Ulf Möller]
7541
7542 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
7543 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
7544 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7545
7546 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
7547 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7548
7549 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
7550 [Ben Laurie]
7551
7552 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
7553 [Ben Laurie]
7554
7555 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
7556 [Ben Laurie]
7557
7558 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
7559 [Bodo Moeller]
7560
7561
7562 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
7563
7564 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
7565
7566 *) Updated some demos.
7567 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
7568
7569 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
7570 [Wu Zhigang]
7571
7572 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
7573 [Steve Henson]
7574
7575 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
7576 [Steve Henson]
7577
7578 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
7579 instead of using a fixed path.
7580 [Bodo Moeller]
7581
7582 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
7583 [Andy Polyakov]
7584
7585 *) Improvements for VMS support.
7586 [Richard Levitte]
7587
7588
7589 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
7590
7591 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
7592 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
7593 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7594
7595 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
7596 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
7597 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
7598 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
7599 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
7600 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
7601 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
7602 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
7603 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
7604 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
7605 [Steve Henson]
7606
7607 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
7608 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
7609 [Steve Henson]
7610
7611 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
7612 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
7613 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
7614 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
7615 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
7616
7617 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
7618 [Bodo Moeller]
7619
7620 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
7621 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
7622 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
7623 [Steve Henson]
7624
7625 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
7626 [Ben Laurie]
7627
7628 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
7629 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
7630 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
7631 key elements as negative integers.
7632 [Steve Henson]
7633
7634 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
7635 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7636
7637 *) VMS support.
7638 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
7639
7640 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
7641 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
7642 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
7643 [Steve Henson]
7644
7645 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
7646 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
7647 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
7648 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
7649 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
7650 [Bodo Moeller]
7651
7652 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
7653 [Ulf Möller]
7654
7655 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
7656 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
7657 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
7658 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7659
7660 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
7661 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
7662 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
7663
7664 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
7665 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
7666 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
7667 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
7668 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
7669 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
7670 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
7671 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
7672 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
7673
7674 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
7675 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
7676 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
7677 does not influence s as it used to.
7678
7679 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
7680 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
7681 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
7682 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
7683 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
7684 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
7685 [Bodo Moeller]
7686
7687 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
7688 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
7689 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
7690 key type.
7691 [Steve Henson]
7692
7693 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
7694 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
7695 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
7696 and 'x509').
7697 [Steve Henson]
7698
7699 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
7700 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
7701 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
7702 extension option.
7703 [Steve Henson]
7704
7705 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
7706 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
7707 [Ben Laurie]
7708
7709 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
7710 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7711
7712 *) Support Mingw32.
7713 [Ulf Möller]
7714
7715 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
7716 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7717
7718 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
7719 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7720
7721 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
7722 [Ulf Möller]
7723
7724 *) Update HPUX configuration.
7725 [Anonymous]
7726
7727 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
7728 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7729
7730 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
7731 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
7732 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
7733 DER-encoded.)
7734 [Bodo Moeller]
7735
7736 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
7737 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
7738 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
7739 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
7740 now it really counts the depth.
7741 [Bodo Moeller]
7742
7743 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
7744 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
7745 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
7746 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
7747 didn't match the private key).
7748
7749 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
7750 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
7751 connection using the SSL_CTX).
7752 [Bodo Moeller]
7753
7754 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
7755 [Ulf Möller]
7756
7757 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
7758 David Harris.
7759 [Bodo Moeller]
7760
7761 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
7762 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
7763 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
7764 [Bodo Moeller]
7765
7766 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
7767 [Bodo Moeller]
7768
7769 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
7770 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
7771 such as /usr/local/bin.
7772 [Bodo Moeller]
7773
7774 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
7775 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7776
7777 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
7778 [Ulf Möller]
7779
7780 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
7781 extension adding in x509 utility.
7782 [Steve Henson]
7783
7784 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
7785 [Ulf Möller]
7786
7787 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
7788 prototypes.
7789 [Steve Henson]
7790
7791 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
7792 [Ulf Möller]
7793
7794 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
7795 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
7796 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
7797 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
7798 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
7799 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
7800 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
7801 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
7802 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
7803 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
7804 [Steve Henson]
7805
7806 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
7807 [Bodo Moeller]
7808
7809 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
7810 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
7811 [Bodo Moeller]
7812
7813 *) Fix some race conditions.
7814 [Bodo Moeller]
7815
7816 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
7817 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
7818 [Steve Henson]
7819
7820 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
7821 [Ulf Möller]
7822
7823 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
7824 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
7825 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
7826 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
7827
7828 *) Fix lots of warnings.
7829 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7830
7831 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
7832 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
7833 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7834
7835 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
7836 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7837
7838 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
7839 [Ulf Möller]
7840
7841 *) Fix typos in error codes.
7842 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
7843
7844 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
7845 [Ulf Möller]
7846
7847 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
7848 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7849
7850 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
7851 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
7852 [Steve Henson]
7853
7854 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
7855 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
7856 [Ben Laurie]
7857
7858 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
7859 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
7860 [Steve Henson]
7861
7862 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
7863 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
7864 [Steve Henson]
7865
7866 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
7867 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
7868 [Steve Henson]
7869
7870 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
7871 support typesafe stack.
7872 [Steve Henson]
7873
7874 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
7875 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
7876
7877 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
7878 old X509V3 handling code.
7879 [Steve Henson]
7880
7881 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
7882 [Ulf Möller]
7883
7884 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
7885 [Bodo Moeller]
7886
7887 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
7888 [Ben Laurie]
7889
7890 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
7891 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
7892
7893 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
7894 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
7895 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
7896 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
7897 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
7898 [Ben Laurie]
7899
7900 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
7901 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
7902 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
7903 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
7904 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
7905
7906 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
7907 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
7908 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
7909 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7910
7911 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
7912 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
7913 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
7914 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7915
7916 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
7917 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
7918 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
7919 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
7920 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
7921 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
7922 [Bodo Moeller]
7923
7924 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
7925 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
7926 [Bodo Moeller]
7927
7928 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
7929 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
7930 [Ulf Möller]
7931
7932 *) Tweaks to Configure
7933 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7934
7935 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
7936 yet...
7937 [Steve Henson]
7938
7939 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
7940 [Ulf Möller]
7941
7942 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
7943 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
7944 [Ulf Möller]
7945
7946 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
7947 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
7948 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
7949 [Bodo Moeller]
7950
7951 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
7952 [Bodo Moeller]
7953
7954 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
7955 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
7956 [Steve Henson]
7957
7958 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
7959 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
7960 to library startup routines.
7961 [Steve Henson]
7962
7963 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
7964 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
7965 codes along the way.
7966 [Steve Henson]
7967
7968 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
7969 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
7970 objects to objects.h
7971 [Steve Henson]
7972
7973 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
7974 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
7975 [Steve Henson]
7976
7977 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
7978 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
7979
7980 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
7981 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
7982 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
7983
7984 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
7985 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
7986 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7987
7988 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
7989 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
7990 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
7991
7992
7993 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
7994
7995 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
7996 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
7997 [Ben Laurie]
7998
7999 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
8000 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
8001 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
8002 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
8003 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
8004
8005 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
8006 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
8007 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
8008 document.
8009 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8010
8011 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
8012 Malloc, Free.
8013 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
8014
8015 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
8016 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8017
8018 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
8019 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
8020 if someone would make that last step automatic.
8021 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
8022
8023 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
8024 [Ben Laurie]
8025
8026 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
8027 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
8028 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
8029 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
8030 [Steve Henson]
8031
8032 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
8033 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
8034 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
8035 [Steve Henson]
8036
8037 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
8038 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
8039 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
8040 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
8041 installed as `perl').
8042 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8043
8044 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
8045 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8046
8047 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
8048 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
8049 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
8050 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
8051 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
8052 [Steve Henson]
8053
8054 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
8055 [Ben Laurie]
8056
8057 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
8058 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
8059 is horrible: I feel ill....
8060 [Steve Henson]
8061
8062 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
8063 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
8064 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
8065 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
8066 [Steve Henson]
8067
8068 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
8069 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8070
8071 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
8072 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
8073 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
8074 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8075
8076 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
8077 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
8078 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
8079 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
8080 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
8081 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
8082 openssl_bio.xs.
8083 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8084
8085 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
8086 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8087
8088 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
8089 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
8090
8091 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
8092 [Ben Laurie]
8093
8094 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
8095 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
8096 in CRLs.
8097 [Steve Henson]
8098
8099 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
8100 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
8101 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
8102 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
8103 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
8104 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
8105 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
8106 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
8107 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
8108 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
8109 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8110
8111 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
8112 [Ben Laurie]
8113
8114 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
8115 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
8116 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
8117 for linking it into DSOs.
8118 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8119
8120 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
8121 Fixed.
8122 [Ben Laurie]
8123
8124 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
8125 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
8126 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
8127 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
8128 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
8129 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8130
8131 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
8132 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
8133 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
8134 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
8135 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
8136 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
8137 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8138
8139 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
8140 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
8141 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
8142 encryption.
8143 [Ben Laurie]
8144
8145 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
8146 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
8147 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
8148 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
8149 [Steve Henson]
8150
8151 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
8152 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
8153 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
8154 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
8155 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
8156 field as blank.
8157 [Steve Henson]
8158
8159 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
8160 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
8161 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
8162 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
8163 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8164
8165 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
8166 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
8167 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8168
8169 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
8170 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8171
8172 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
8173 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
8174 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
8175 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
8176 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
8177 [Steve Henson]
8178
8179 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
8180 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
8181 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
8182 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
8183 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
8184 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
8185 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
8186 [Ben Laurie]
8187
8188 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
8189 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
8190 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
8191 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
8192 [Ben Laurie]
8193
8194 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
8195 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
8196
8197 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
8198 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
8199 [Steve Henson]
8200
8201 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
8202 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
8203 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
8204 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
8205 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
8206 (e.g. s_server).
8207 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
8208 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
8209 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
8210 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
8211 no way to reconfigure them.
8212 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
8213 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
8214 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
8215 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
8216 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
8217 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8218
8219 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
8220 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
8221 recognized by the users.
8222 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8223
8224 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
8225 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
8226 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
8227 already masked variable.
8228 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8229
8230 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
8231 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8232
8233 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
8234 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
8235 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
8236 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8237
8238 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
8239 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
8240 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8241
8242 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
8243 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
8244 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
8245 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
8246 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
8247 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
8248 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
8249 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
8250 now, too.
8251 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8252
8253 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
8254 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
8255 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8256
8257 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
8258 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
8259 config file.
8260 [Steve Henson]
8261
8262 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
8263 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8264
8265 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
8266 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
8267 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
8268 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
8269 [Ben Laurie]
8270
8271 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
8272 [Steve Henson]
8273
8274 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
8275 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8276
8277 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
8278 [Ben Laurie]
8279
8280 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
8281 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
8282 [Steve Henson]
8283
8284 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
8285 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
8286 [Steve Henson]
8287
8288 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
8289 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
8290 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
8291 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
8292 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
8293 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
8294 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
8295 Ben Laurie]
8296
8297 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
8298 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8299
8300 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
8301 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
8302 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
8303 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
8304 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8305
8306 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
8307 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
8308 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
8309 [Steve Henson]
8310
8311 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
8312 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
8313 an example.
8314 [Steve Henson]
8315
8316 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
8317 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
8318 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8319
8320 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
8321 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
8322 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
8323 build instructions.
8324 [Steve Henson]
8325
8326 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
8327 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
8328 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
8329 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
8330 [Steve Henson]
8331
8332 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
8333 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
8334 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
8335 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
8336 [Ben Laurie]
8337
8338 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
8339 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
8340 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
8341 so it wasn't spotted.
8342 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
8343
8344 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
8345 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
8346 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
8347 vectors if you have them.
8348 [Ben Laurie]
8349
8350 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
8351 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
8352 [Ben Laurie]
8353
8354 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
8355 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
8356 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
8357 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
8358 If you do a:
8359 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
8360 it will update them.
8361 [Steve Henson]
8362
8363 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
8364 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
8365 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
8366 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
8367 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
8368 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
8369 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
8370 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8371
8372 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
8373 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
8374 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
8375 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
8376 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
8377 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
8378 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
8379 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
8380 the crypto/md/ stuff).
8381 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8382
8383 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
8384 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
8385 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
8386 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
8387 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
8388 [Steve Henson]
8389
8390 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
8391 INTEGER code.
8392 [Steve Henson]
8393
8394 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
8395 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8396
8397 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
8398 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8399
8400 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
8401 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
8402 [Ben Laurie]
8403
8404 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
8405 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
8406
8407 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
8408 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
8409
8410 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
8411 [Steve Henson]
8412
8413 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
8414 few typos.
8415 [Steve Henson]
8416
8417 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
8418 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
8419 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
8420 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8421
8422 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8423 [Steve Henson]
8424
8425 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8426 [Steve Henson]
8427
8428 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
8429 [Steve Henson]
8430
8431 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
8432 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
8433 [Steve Henson]
8434
8435 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
8436 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
8437 CA extensions.
8438 [Steve Henson]
8439
8440 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
8441 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
8442 [Steve Henson]
8443
8444 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
8445 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
8446 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
8447 [Steve Henson]
8448
8449 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
8450 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
8451 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
8452 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
8453 properly to be processed.
8454 [Steve Henson]
8455
8456 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
8457 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
8458 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
8459 [Ben Laurie]
8460
8461 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
8462 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
8463
8464 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
8465 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
8466 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
8467 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
8468 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
8469 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
8470 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
8471 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
8472 or delete all the .err files.
8473 [Steve Henson]
8474
8475 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
8476 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
8477 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
8478 to regenerate it if needed.
8479 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
8480 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
8481
8482 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
8483 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8484
8485 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
8486 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
8487 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
8488 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
8489 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
8490 [Steve Henson]
8491
8492 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
8493 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8494
8495 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
8496 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8497
8498 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
8499 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
8500 error, but didn't set one).
8501 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8502
8503 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
8504 [Ben Laurie]
8505
8506 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
8507 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
8508 [Steve Henson]
8509
8510 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
8511 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
8512
8513 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
8514 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
8515 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
8516 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
8517 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
8518 OID is not part of the table.
8519 [Steve Henson]
8520
8521 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
8522 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
8523 [Ben Laurie]
8524
8525 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
8526 [Ben Laurie]
8527
8528 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
8529 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
8530 was "1234").
8531 [Steve Henson]
8532
8533 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
8534 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
8535
8536 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
8537 NULL pointers.
8538 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8539
8540 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
8541 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8542
8543 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
8544 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8545
8546 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
8547 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8548
8549 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
8550 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
8551 [Ben Laurie]
8552
8553 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
8554 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
8555 [Steve Henson]
8556
8557 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
8558 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8559
8560 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
8561 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8562
8563 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
8564 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8565
8566 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
8567 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8568
8569 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
8570 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
8571 unused in the certificate verification process.
8572 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8573
8574 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
8575 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
8576 [Steve Henson]
8577
8578 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
8579 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
8580 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
8581
8582 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
8583 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
8584 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
8585 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
8586 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
8587
8588 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
8589 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
8590 [Steve Henson]
8591
8592 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
8593 [Steve Henson]
8594
8595 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
8596 [Paul Sutton]
8597
8598 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
8599 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
8600
8601 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
8602 [Ben Laurie]
8603
8604 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
8605 [Ben Laurie]
8606
8607 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
8608 [Ben Laurie]
8609
8610 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
8611 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
8612 other error libraries.
8613 [Steve Henson]
8614
8615 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
8616 [Steve Henson]
8617
8618 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
8619 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
8620 be read in.
8621 [Steve Henson]
8622
8623 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
8624 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
8625 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
8626 the new set of documenation files.
8627 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8628
8629 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
8630 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
8631 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
