4
5 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
8
9 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
10 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
11 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
12 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
13 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
14 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
15 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
16
17 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
18 (CVE-2014-3513)
19 [OpenSSL team]
20
21 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
22
23 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
24 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
25 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
26 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
27 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
28 attack.
29 (CVE-2014-3567)
30 [Steve Henson]
31
32 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
33
34 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
35 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
36 configured to send them.
37 (CVE-2014-3568)
38 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
39
40 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
41 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
42 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
43 (CVE-2014-3566)
44 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
45
46 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
47 (other platforms pending).
48 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
49
50 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
51 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
52 [Rob Stradling]
53
54 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
55 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
56 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
57 [Bodo Moeller]
58
59 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
60 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
61 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
62 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
63 [Andy Polyakov]
64
65 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
66 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
67
68 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
69 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
70 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
71 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
72 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
73
74 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
75 [Andy Polyakov]
76
77 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
78 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
79 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
80 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
81
82 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
83 RSAZ.
84 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
85
86 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
87 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
88 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
89 for TLS encrypt.
90
91 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
92 [Andy Polyakov]
93
94 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
95 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
96 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
97 [Steve Henson]
98
99 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
100 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
101 [Steve Henson]
102
103 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
104 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
105 [Steve Henson]
106
107 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
108 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
109 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
110 algorithms and include tests cases.
111 [Steve Henson]
112
113 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
114 structure.
115 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
116
117 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
118 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
119 [Steve Henson]
120
121 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
122 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
123 summary of the connection parameters.
124 [Steve Henson]
125
126 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
127 of connection parameters.
128 [Steve Henson]
129
130 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
131 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
132
133 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
134 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
135 [Steve Henson]
136
137 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
138 [Steve Henson]
139
140 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
141 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
142 [Steve Henson]
143
144 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
145 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
146 [Steve Henson]
147
148 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
149 certificates.
150 [Steve Henson]
151
152 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
153 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
154 CRLs using the OCSP API.
155 [Steve Henson]
156
157 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
158 [Steve Henson]
159
160 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
161 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
162 [Steve Henson]
163
164 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
165 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
166 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
167 tracing.
168 [Steve Henson]
169
170 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
171 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
172 [Steve Henson]
173
174 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
175 OID NID.
176 [Steve Henson]
177
178 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
179 client to OpenSSL.
180 [Steve Henson]
181
182 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
183 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
184 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
185 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
186 [Steve Henson]
187
188 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
189 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
190 [Steve Henson]
191
192 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
193 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
194 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
195 comparison.
196 [Steve Henson]
197
198 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
199 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
200 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
201 use the certificate.
202 [Steve Henson]
203
204 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
205 [Steve Henson]
206
207 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
208 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
209 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
210 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
211 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
212 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
213 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
214
215 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
216 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
217
218 [Steve Henson]
219
220 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
221 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
222 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
223 [Steve Henson]
224
225 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
226 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
227 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
228 supported signature algorithms.
229 [Steve Henson]
230
231 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
232 [Steve Henson]
233
234 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
235 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
236 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
237 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
238 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
239 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
240 certificate and specify the whole chain.
241 [Steve Henson]
242
243 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
244 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
245 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
246 to have similar checks in it.
247
248 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
249 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
250 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
251 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
252 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
253 [Steve Henson]
254
255 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
256 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
257 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
258 shared signature algorithms.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
261 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
262 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
263 to support them.
264 [Steve Henson]
265
266 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
267 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
268 it couldn't be removed.
269 [Steve Henson]
270
271 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
272 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
273 [Steve Henson]
274
275 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
276 functions. Add manual page.
277 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
278
279 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
280 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
281 a certificate.
282 [Steve Henson]
283
284 *) Fix OCSP checking.
285 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
286
287 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
288 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
289 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
290 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
291 utility) or reject.
292 [Steve Henson]
293
294 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
295 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
296 [Steve Henson]
297
298 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
299 platform support for Linux and Android.
300 [Andy Polyakov]
301
302 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
303 [Andy Polyakov]
304
305 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
306 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
307 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
308 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
309 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
310 [Steve Henson]
311
312 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
313 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
314 the new parameter format automatically.
315 [Steve Henson]
316
317 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
318 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
319 [Steve Henson]
320
321 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
322 [Steve Henson]
323
324 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
325 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
326 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
327 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
328 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
329 [Steve Henson]
330
331 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
332 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
333 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
334 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
335 to set list of supported curves.
336 [Steve Henson]
337
338 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
339 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
340 to print out received values.
341 [Steve Henson]
342
343 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
344 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
345 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
346 [Steve Henson]
347
348 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
349 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
350 [Steve Henson]
351
352 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
353 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
354 [Steve Henson]
355
356 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
357 certificates.
358 [Steve Henson]
359
360 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
361 the certificate.
362 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
363 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
364 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
365
366 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
367
368 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
369
370 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
371 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
372 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
373 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
374 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
375 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
376 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
377
378 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
379 (CVE-2014-3513)
380 [OpenSSL team]
381
382 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
383
384 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
385 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
386 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
387 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
388 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
389 attack.
390 (CVE-2014-3567)
391 [Steve Henson]
392
393 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
394
395 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
396 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
397 configured to send them.
398 (CVE-2014-3568)
399 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
400
401 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
402 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
403 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
404 (CVE-2014-3566)
405 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
406
407 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
408
409 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
410 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
411 DigestInfo structures.
412
413 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
414
415 [Steve Henson]
416
417 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
418
419 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
420 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
421 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
422
423 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
424 Group for discovering this issue.
425 (CVE-2014-3512)
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
429 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
430 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
431 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
432 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
433
434 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
435 researching this issue.
436 (CVE-2014-3511)
437 [David Benjamin]
438
439 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
440 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
441 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
442 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
443
444 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
445 issue.
446 (CVE-2014-3510)
447 [Emilia Käsper]
448
449 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
450 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
451 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
452 (CVE-2014-3507)
453 [Adam Langley]
454
455 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
456 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
457 Denial of Service attack.
458 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
459 (CVE-2014-3506)
460 [Adam Langley]
461
462 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
463 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
464 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
465 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
466 this issue.
467 (CVE-2014-3505)
468 [Adam Langley]
469
470 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
471 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
472 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
473
474 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
475 issue.
476 (CVE-2014-3509)
477 [Gabor Tyukasz]
478
479 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
480 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
481 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
482 Denial of Service attack.
483
484 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
485 discovering and researching this issue.
486 (CVE-2014-5139)
487 [Steve Henson]
488
489 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
490 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
491 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
492 output to the attacker.
493
494 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
495 (CVE-2014-3508)
496 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
497
498 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
499 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
500 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
501 [Bodo Moeller]
502
503 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [xx XXX xxxx]
504
505 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
506
507 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
508 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
509 DigestInfo structures.
510
511 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
512
513 [Steve Henson]
514
515 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
516
517 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
518 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
519 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
520
521 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
522 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
523 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
524
525 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
526 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
527 in a DoS attack.
528
529 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
530 (CVE-2014-0221)
531 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
532
533 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
534 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
535 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
536 code on a vulnerable client or server.
537
538 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
539 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
540
541 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
542 are subject to a denial of service attack.
543
544 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
545 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
546 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
547
548 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
549 compilation flags.
550 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
551
552 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
553 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
554 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
555
556 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
557 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
558
559 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
560
561 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
562 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
563 server.
564
565 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
566 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
567 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
568 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
569
570 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
571 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
572 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
573 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
574
575 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
576 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
577 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
578
579 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
580
581 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
582 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
583 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
584 is at least 512 bytes long.
585
586 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
587
588 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
589
590 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
591 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
592 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
593 (CVE-2013-4353)
594
595 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
596 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
597 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
598 [Steve Henson]
599
600 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
601 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
602 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
603 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
604 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
605 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
606 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
607
608 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
609
610 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
611 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
612 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
613
614 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
615
616 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
617
618 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
619 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
620 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
621
622 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
623 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
624 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
625 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
626 (CVE-2013-0169)
627 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
628
629 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
630 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
631 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
632 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
633 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
634 (CVE-2012-2686)
635 [Adam Langley]
636
637 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
638 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
639 [Steve Henson]
640
641 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
642 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
643
644 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
645 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
646 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
647 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
648 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
649
650 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
651 [Steve Henson]
652
653 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
654 if renegotiating.
655 [Steve Henson]
656
657 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
658
659 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
660 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
661
662 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
663 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
664 (CVE-2012-2333)
665 [Steve Henson]
666
667 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
668 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
669 [Steve Henson]
670
671 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
672 approved.
673 [Steve Henson]
674
675 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
676
677 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
678 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
679 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
680 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
681 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
682 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
683 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
684 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
685 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
686 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
687 [Steve Henson]
688
689 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
690 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
691 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
692 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
693 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
694 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
695 client side.
696 [Andy Polyakov]
697
698 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
699
700 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
701 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
702 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
703
704 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
705 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
706 (CVE-2012-2110)
707 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
708
709 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
710 [Adam Langley]
711
712 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
713 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
714
715 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
716 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
717 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
718 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
719 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
720 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
721 Most broken servers should now work.
722 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
723 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
724 [Steve Henson]
725
726 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
727 [Andy Polyakov]
728
729 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
730
731 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
732 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
733 [Steve Henson]
734
735 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
736 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
737 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
738 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
739 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
740 [Steve Henson]
741
742 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
743 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
744 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
745 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
746 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
747 [Steve Henson]
748
749 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
750 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
751
752 *) Add support for SCTP.
753 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
754
755 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
756 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
757
758 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
759
760 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
761 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
762 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
763 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
764 - s390x: z196 support;
765 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
766
767 [Andy Polyakov]
768
769 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
770 (removal of unnecessary code)
771 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
772
773 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
774 [Eric Rescorla]
775
776 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
777 [Eric Rescorla]
778
779 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
780 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
781 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
782 by Google.
783 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
784
785 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
786 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
787 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
788 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
789 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
790
791 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
792 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
793 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
794
795 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
796 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
797 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
798
799 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
800 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
801 implementations).
802 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
803
804 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
805 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
806 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
807 [Steve Henson]
808
809 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
810 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
811 particular PSS.
812 [Steve Henson]
813
814 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
815 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
816 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
817 [Steve Henson]
818
819 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
820 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
821 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
822 the appropriate parameters.
823 [Steve Henson]
824
825 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
826 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
827 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
828 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
829 against a number of sample certificates.
830 [Steve Henson]
831
832 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
833 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
834
835 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
836 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
837
838 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
839 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
840 parameters r, s.
841 [Steve Henson]
842
843 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
844 RFC3211.
845 [Steve Henson]
846
847 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
848 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
849 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
850 password based CMS).
851 [Steve Henson]
852
853 *) Session-handling fixes:
854 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
855 but also support Session Tickets.
856 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
857 presented a ticket with an expired session.
858 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
859 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
860 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
861 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
862
863 *) Fix PSK session representation.
864 [Bodo Moeller]
865
866 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
867
868 This work was sponsored by Intel.
869 [Andy Polyakov]
870
871 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
872 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
873 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
874 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
875 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
876 [Steve Henson]
877
878 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
879 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
880 [Steve Henson]
881
882 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
883 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
884 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
885 [Steve Henson]
886
887 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
888 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
889 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
890 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
891 [Steve Henson]
892
893 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
894 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
895 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
896 [Steve Henson]
897
898 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
899 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
900
901 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
902 [Steve Henson]
903
904 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
905 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
906 [Steve Henson]
907
908 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
909 [Steve Henson]
910
911 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
912 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
913 [Steve Henson]
914
915 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
916 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
917 [Steve Henson]
918
919 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
920 [Steve Henson]
921
922 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
923 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
924 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
925 [Steve Henson]
926
927 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
928 [Steve Henson]
929
930 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
931 [Steve Henson]
932
933 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
934 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
935 [Steve Henson]
936
937 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
938 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
939 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
940 [Steve Henson]
941
942 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
943 [Steve Henson]
944
945 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
946 and enable MD5.
947 [Steve Henson]
948
949 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
950 FIPS modules versions.
951 [Steve Henson]
952
953 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
954 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
955 until after the certificate request message is received.
956 [Steve Henson]
957
958 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
959 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
960 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
961 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
962 [Steve Henson]
963
964 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
965 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
966 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
967 support yet and no support for client certificates.
968 [Steve Henson]
969
970 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
971 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
972 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
973 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
974 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
975 and version checking.
976 [Steve Henson]
977
978 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
979 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
980 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
981 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
982 [Steve Henson]
983
984 *) Add SRP support.
985 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
986
987 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
988 [Steve Henson]
989
990 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
991 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
992 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
993
994 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
995 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
996 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
997 [Steve Henson]
998
999 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
1000 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
1001
1002 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
1003 a few changes are required:
1004
1005 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
1006 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
1007 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
1008 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
1009 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
1010 [Steve Henson]
1011
1012 Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
1013
1014 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1015
1016 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1017 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1018 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1019
1020 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1021 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1022 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1023 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1024 (CVE-2013-0169)
1025 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1026
1027 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1028 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1029 [Steve Henson]
1030
1031 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1032 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1033 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1034 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1035 (This is a backport)
1036 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1037
1038 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1039 [Steve Henson]
1040
1041 Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
1042
1043 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
1044 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
1045
1046 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
1047 to fix DoS attack.
1048
1049 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1050 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1051 (CVE-2012-2333)
1052 [Steve Henson]
1053
1054 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1055 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1056 [Steve Henson]
1057
1058 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
1059
1060 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1061 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1062 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1063
1064 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1065 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1066 (CVE-2012-2110)
1067 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1068
1069 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1070
1071 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1072 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1073 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1074 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1075 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1076 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1077 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1078 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1079 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1080 [Steve Henson]
1081
1082 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1083 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1084 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1085 [Steve Henson]
1086
1087 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1088
1089 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1090 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1091 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1092 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1093 [Antonio Martin]
1094
1095 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1096
1097 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1098 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1099 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1100 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1101 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1102 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1103 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1104 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1105 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1106 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1107 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1108 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1109 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1110
1111 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1112 (CVE-2011-4576)
1113 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1114
1115 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1116 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1117 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1118 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1119
1120 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1121 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1122
1123 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1124 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1125 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1126 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1127
1128 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1129 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1130
1131 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1132 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1133
1134 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1135 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1136
1137 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1138 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1139 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1140
1141 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1142 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1143 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1144
1145 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1146 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1147 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1148 the last update always remained unused).
1149 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1150
1151 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1152 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1153
1154 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1155
1156 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1157 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1158 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1159
1160 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1161 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1162 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1163
1164 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1165 [Bodo Moeller]
1166
1167 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1168 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1169 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1170 [Steve Henson]
1171
1172 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1173 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1174
1175 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1176
1177 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1178
1179 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1180
1181 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1182 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1183
1184 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1185 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1186 ambiguous.
1187 [Steve Henson]
1188
1189 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1190
1191 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1192 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1193 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1194 [Steve Henson]
1195
1196 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1197 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1198 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1199 [Ben Laurie]
1200
1201 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1202
1203 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1204 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1205 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1206 [Steve Henson]
1207
1208 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1209 a DLL.
1210 [Steve Henson]
1211
1212 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1213
1214 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1215 (CVE-2010-1633)
1216 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1217
1218 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1219
1220 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1221 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1222 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1223 [Steve Henson]
1224
1225 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1226 [Steve Henson]
1227
1228 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1229 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1230 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1231
1232 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1233 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1234 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1235 [Steve Henson]
1236
1237 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1238 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1239 [Steve Henson]
1240
1241 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1242 some responders need this.
1243 [Steve Henson]
1244
1245 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1246 correctly.
1247 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1248
1249 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1250 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1251 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1252 [Steve Henson]
1253
1254 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1255 [Steve Henson]
1256
1257 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1258 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1259 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1260 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1261 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1262 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1263 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1264 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1265 [Steve Henson]
1266
1267 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1268 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1269 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1270 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1271
1272 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1273 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1274
1275 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1276 be used on C++.
1277 [Steve Henson]
1278
1279 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1280 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1281 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1282 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1283 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1284 attempting to work them out.
1285 [Steve Henson]
1286
1287 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1288 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1289 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1290 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1291 [Steve Henson]
1292
1293 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1294 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1295 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1296 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1297 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1298 [Steve Henson]
1299
1300 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1301 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1302 you can do:
1303
1304 openssl sha256 foo
1305
1306 as well as:
1307
1308 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1309
1310 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1311
1312 [Steve Henson]
1313
1314 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1315 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1316
1317 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1318 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1319
1320 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1321 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1322 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1323 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1324 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1325 [Steve Henson]
1326
1327 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1328 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1329 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1330 [Steve Henson]
1331
1332 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1333 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1334 [Steve Henson]
1335
1336 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1337 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1338
1339 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1340 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1341 [Steve Henson]
1342
1343 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1344 [Ben Laurie]
1345
1346 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1347 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1348 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1349 CONF_VALUE.
1350 [Ben Laurie]
1351
1352 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1353 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1354 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1355 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1356 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1357 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1358 [Steve Henson]
1359
1360 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1361 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1362
1363 This work was sponsored by Google.
1364 [Steve Henson]
1365
1366 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1367 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1368 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1369 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1370 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1371 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1372 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1373 default.
1374
1375 This work was sponsored by Google.
1376 [Steve Henson]
1377
1378 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1379
1380 This work was sponsored by Google.
1381 [Steve Henson]
1382
1383 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1384 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1385 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1386 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1387
1388 This work was sponsored by Google.
1389 [Steve Henson]
1390
1391 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1392 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1393 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1394 CRL functionality in future.
1395
1396 This work was sponsored by Google.
1397 [Steve Henson]
1398
1399 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1400
1401 This work was sponsored by Google.
1402 [Steve Henson]
1403
1404 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1405 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1406
1407 This work was sponsored by Google.
1408 [Steve Henson]
1409
1410 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1411 and URI types are currently supported.
1412
1413 This work was sponsored by Google.
1414 [Steve Henson]
1415
1416 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1417 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1418 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1419 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1420 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1421 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1422 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1423 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1424
1425 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1426 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1427 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1428
1429 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1430 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1431 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1432 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1433
1434 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1435 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1436 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1437 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1438 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1439 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1440 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1441 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1442 of &errno.)
1443 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1444
1445 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1446 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1447 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1448
1449 This work was sponsored by Google.
1450 [Steve Henson]
1451
1452 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1453 [Ben Laurie]
1454
1455 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1456 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1457 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1458 [Ben Laurie]
1459
1460 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1461 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1462 [Nick Mathewson]
1463
1464 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1465 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1466 [Ben Laurie]
1467
1468 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1469 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1470 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1471 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1472 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1473 content types and variants.
1474 [Steve Henson]
1475
1476 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1477 [Steve Henson]
1478
1479 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1480 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1481 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1482 files from the associated perl scripts.
1483 [Steve Henson]
1484
1485 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1486 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1487 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1488
1489 *) s390x assembler pack.
1490 [Andy Polyakov]
1491
1492 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1493 "family."
1494 [Andy Polyakov]
1495
1496 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1497 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1498 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1499 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1500 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1501 to use. For example, specify an option
1502
1503 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1504
1505 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1506 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1507 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1508 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1509 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1510 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1511
1512 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1513 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1514 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1515 return non-zero for success.
1516
1517 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1518 by using
1519
1520 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1521 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1522
1523 where
1524
1525 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1526 void *arg;
1527
1528 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1529 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1530 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1531 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1532 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1533 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1534 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1535 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1536 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1537
1538 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1539 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1540 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1541 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1542 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1543 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1544
1545 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1546 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1547 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1548 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1549 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1550 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1551
1552 [Bodo Moeller]
1553
1554 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1555 MAC.
1556
1557 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1558
1559 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1560 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1561 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1562 supported.
1563
1564 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1565 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1566 SSL_SESSION.
1567
1568 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1569 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1570 with no application modification.
1571
1572 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1573 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1574
1575 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1576 or server extensions to be examined.
1577
1578 This work was sponsored by Google.
1579 [Steve Henson]
1580
1581 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1582 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1583 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1584
1585 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1586 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1587 ciphersuite support.
1588 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1589
1590 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1591 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1592 to output in BER and PEM format.
1593 [Steve Henson]
1594
1595 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1596 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1597 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1598 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1599 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1600 [Steve Henson]
1601
1602 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1603 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1604 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1605 utility.
1606 [Steve Henson]
1607
1608 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1609 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1610 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1611 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1612 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1613 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1614 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1615 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1616 enabled again.
1617
1618 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1619 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1620 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1621 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1622
1623 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1624 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1625 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1626 the default order.
1627 [Bodo Moeller]
1628
1629 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1630 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1631 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1632 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1633 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1634 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1635 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1636 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1637 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1638
1639 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1640 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1641 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1642 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1643 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1644 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1645 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1646 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1647 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1648 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1649 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1650 kinds of kludges.
1651
1652 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1653 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1654 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1655
1656 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1657 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1658 "CAMELLIA256".
1659 [Bodo Moeller]
1660
1661 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1662 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1663 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1664 [Nils Larsch]
1665
1666 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1667 it yet and it is largely untested.
1668 [Steve Henson]
1669
1670 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1671 [Nils Larsch]
1672
1673 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1674 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1675 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1676 [Steve Henson]
1677
1678 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1679 [Andy Polyakov]
1680
1681 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1682 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1683 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1684 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1685 [Steve Henson]
1686
1687 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1688 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1689 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1690 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1691 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1692 [Steve Henson]
1693
1694 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1695 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1696 [Cryptocom]
1697
1698 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1699 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1700 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1701 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1702 [Steve Henson]
1703
1704 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1705 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1706 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1707 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1708 [Steve Henson]
1709
1710 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1711 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1712 [Steve Henson]
1713
1714 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1715 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1716 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1717 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1718 [Steve Henson]
1719
1720 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1721 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1722 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1723 [Steve Henson]
1724
1725 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1726 utility.
1727 [Steve Henson]
1728
1729 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1730 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1731 [Steve Henson]
1732
1733 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1734 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1735 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1736 if necessary.
1737 [Steve Henson]
1738
1739 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1740 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1741 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1742 [Steve Henson]
1743
1744 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1745 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1746 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1747 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1748 [Steve Henson]
1749
1750 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1751 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1752 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1753 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1754 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1755 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1756 [Douglas Stebila]
1757
1758 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1759 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1760 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1761 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1762 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1763
1764 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1765 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1766 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1767 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1768 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1769 protocol).
1770
1771 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1772 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1773 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1774 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1775
1776 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1777 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1778 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1779 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1780 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1781
1782 aECDH - ECDH cert
1783 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1784 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1785
1786 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1787 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1788
1789 [Bodo Moeller]
1790
1791 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1792 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1793 [Steve Henson]
1794
1795 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1796 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1797 [Steve Henson]
1798
1799 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1800 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1801 functional reference processing.
1802 [Steve Henson]
1803
1804 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1805 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1806 process.
1807 [Steve Henson]
1808
1809 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1810 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1811 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1812 [Steve Henson]
1813
1814 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1815 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1816 application to support multiple signers.
1817 [Steve Henson]
1818
1819 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1820 digest MAC.
1821 [Steve Henson]
1822
1823 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1824 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1825 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1826 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1827 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1828 [Steve Henson]
1829
1830 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1831 new API.
1832 [Steve Henson]
1833
1834 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1835 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1836 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1837 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1838 a no op.
1839 [Steve Henson]
1840
1841 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1842 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1843 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1844 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1845 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1846 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1847 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1848 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1849 [Steve Henson]
1850
1851 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1852 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1853 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1854 between digests and public key types.
1855 [Steve Henson]
1856
1857 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1858 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1859 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1860 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1861 [Steve Henson]
1862
1863 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1864 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1865 key ASN1 method.
1866 [Steve Henson]
1867
1868 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1869 [Steve Henson]
1870
1871 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1872 pkeyutl.
1873 [Steve Henson]
1874
1875 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1876 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1877 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1878 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1879 pkey, genpkey.
1880 [Steve Henson]
1881
1882 *) BeOS support.
1883 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1884
1885 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1886 manual pages.
1887 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1888
1889 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1890 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1891 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1892 functionality for RSA.
1893 [Steve Henson]
1894
1895 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1896 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1897 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1898 [Steve Henson]
1899
1900 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1901 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1902 [Steve Henson]
1903
1904 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1905 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1906 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1907 [Steve Henson]
1908
1909 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1910 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1911 [Douglas Stebila]
1912
1913 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1914 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1915 [Steve Henson]
1916
1917 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1918 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1919 type.
1920 [Steve Henson]
1921
1922 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1923 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1924 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1925 structure.
1926 [Steve Henson]
1927
1928 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1929 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1930 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1931 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1932 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1933 of public and private key structures.
1934 [Steve Henson]
1935
1936 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1937 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1938 [Douglas Stebila]
1939
1940 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1941 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1942 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1943
1944 New ciphersuites:
1945 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1946 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1947
1948 New functions:
1949 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1950 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1951 SSL_get_psk_identity
1952 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1953
1954 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1955
1956 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1957 and response verification functionality.
1958 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1959
1960 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1961 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1962 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1963 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1964 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1965 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1966 server_name extension.
1967
1968 New functions (subject to change):
1969
1970 SSL_get_servername()
1971 SSL_get_servername_type()
1972 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1973
1974 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1975
1976 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1977 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1978 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1979 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1980 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1981
1982 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1983
1984 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1985 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1986 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1987 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1988 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1989 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1990 option.
1991
1992 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1993
1994 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1995 [Andy Polyakov]
1996
1997 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1998 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1999 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
2000 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
2001 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
2002 [Andy Polyakov]
2003
2004 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
2005 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
2006 macro.
2007 [Bodo Moeller]
2008
2009 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
2010 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
2011 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
2012 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
2013 [Andy Polyakov]
2014
2015 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
2016 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
2017 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
2018 using the maximum available value.
2019 [Steve Henson]
2020
2021 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
2022 in addition to the text details.
2023 [Bodo Moeller]
2024
2025 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2026 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2027 handle several customised structures at all.
2028 [Steve Henson]
2029
2030 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2031 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2032 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2033 [Steve Henson]
2034
2035 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2036 [Steve Henson]
2037
2038 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2039 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2040 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2041 [Steve Henson]
2042
2043 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2044 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2045 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2046 [Nils Larsch]
2047
2048 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2049 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2050 all fields.
2051 [Steve Henson]
2052
2053 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2054 [Steve Henson]
2055
2056 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2057 [NTT]
2058
2059 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
2060
2061 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
2062
2063 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
2064 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
2065 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
2066
2067 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2068 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2069 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
2070 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
2071 (CVE-2013-0169)
2072 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2073
2074 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2075 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2076 [Steve Henson]
2077
2078 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
2079 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
2080 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
2081 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
2082 (This is a backport)
2083 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2084
2085 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2086 [Steve Henson]
2087
2088 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
2089
2090 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
2091 to fix DoS attack.
2092
2093 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2094 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2095 (CVE-2012-2333)
2096 [Steve Henson]
2097
2098 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2099 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2100 [Steve Henson]
2101
2102 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
2103
2104 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
2105 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
2106 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
2107 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
2108 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2109
2110 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
2111
2112 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2113 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2114 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2115
2116 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2117 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2118 (CVE-2012-2110)
2119 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2120
2121 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
2122
2123 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2124 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2125 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2126 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2127 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2128 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2129 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2130 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2131 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2132 [Steve Henson]
2133
2134 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2135 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2136 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2137 [Steve Henson]
2138
2139 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
2140
2141 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2142 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2143 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2144 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2145 [Antonio Martin]
2146
2147 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
2148
2149 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2150 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2151 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2152 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2153 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2154 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2155 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2156 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2157 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2158 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2159 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2160 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2161 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2162
2163 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
2164 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
2165
2166 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2167 (CVE-2011-4576)
2168 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2169
2170 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2171 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2172 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2173 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2174
2175 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2176 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2177 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2178 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2179
2180 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2181 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2182
2183 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2184 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2185
2186 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2187 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2188 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2189
2190 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2191 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2192 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2193
2194 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2195 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2196 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2197 the last update always remained unused).
2198 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2199
2200 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2201 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
2202 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2203
2204 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2205 [Bodo Moeller]
2206
2207 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2208 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2209
2210 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2211
2212 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2213
2214 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
2215
2216 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2217 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2218
2219 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2220 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2221 ambiguous.
2222 [Steve Henson]
2223
2224 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
2225
2226 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2227 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2228 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2229 [Steve Henson]
2230
2231 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2232 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2233 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2234 [Ben Laurie]
2235
2236 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
2237
2238 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2239 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2240 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2241 [Steve Henson]
2242
2243 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
2244 [Steve Henson]
2245
2246 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
2247 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
2248 some broken encodings work correctly.
2249 [Steve Henson]
2250
2251 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
2252 is also one of the inputs.
2253 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2254
2255 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
2256 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
2257 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
2258 etc are non-op.
2259 [Steve Henson]
2260
2261 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
2262
2263 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
2264 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
2265
2266 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
2267 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
2268 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
2269
2270 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
2271 common in certificates and some applications which only call
2272 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
2273 [Steve Henson]
2274
2275 *) VMS fixes:
2276 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
2277 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
2278 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
2279 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
2280
2281 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2282
2283 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2284 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2285 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2286 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2287 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2288 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2289 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2290 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2291
2292 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2293 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2294 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2295
2296 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2297
2298 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2299 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2300
2301 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2302 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2303 [Bodo Moeller]
2304
2305 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2306 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2307 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2308 [Steve Henson]
2309
2310 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2311 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2312 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2313 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2314 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2315 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2316 [Steve Henson]
2317
2318 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2319 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2320 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2321 [Steve Henson]
2322
2323 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2324 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2325 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2326 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2327 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2328 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2329 CVE-2009-4355.
2330 [Steve Henson]
2331
2332 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2333 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2334 [Bodo Moeller]
2335
2336 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2337 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2338 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2339 [Steve Henson]
2340
2341 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2342 [Steve Henson]
2343
2344 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2345 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2346 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2347 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2348 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2349 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2350 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2351 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2352 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2353 [Steve Henson]
2354
2355 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2356 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2357 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2358 [Steve Henson]
2359
2360 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2361 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2362 [Steve Henson]
2363
2364 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2365 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2366 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2367 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2368 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2369 know what you are doing.
2370 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2371
2372 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2373 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2374 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2375 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2376 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2377 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2378 the handshake.
2379 [Steve Henson]
2380
2381 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2382 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2383 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2384 correctly.
2385 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2386
2387 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2388 warnings in other configurations.
2389 [Steve Henson]
2390
2391 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2392 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2393 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2394 systems need.
2395 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2396
2397 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2398 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2399 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2400
2401 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2402 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2403 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2404 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2405 [Steve Henson]
2406
2407 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2408 and restored.
2409 [Steve Henson]
2410
2411 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2412 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2413 clash.
2414 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2415
2416 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2417 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2418 other than a simple chain.
2419 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2420
2421 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2422 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2423 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2424 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2425 [Steve Henson]
2426
2427 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2428 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2429 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2430 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2431 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2432 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2433 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2434 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2435 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2436
2437 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2438 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2439 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2440 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2441 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2442 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2443 (CVE-2009-1377)
2444 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2445
2446 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2447 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2448 [Daniel Mentz]
2449
2450 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2451 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2452
2453 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2454 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2455
2456 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2457
2458 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2459 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2460 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2461 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2462 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2463 you're doing.
2464 [Ben Laurie]
2465
2466 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2467
2468 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2469 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2470 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2471 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2472
2473 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2474 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2475 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2476 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2477
2478 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2479 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2480 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2481 [Steve Henson]
2482
2483 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2484 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2485 level.
2486 [Steve Henson]
2487
2488 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2489 to handle some structures.
2490 [Steve Henson]
2491
2492 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2493 for a '\n'
2494 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2495
2496 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2497 [Matthieu Herrb]
2498
2499 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2500 [Steve Henson]
2501
2502 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2503 [Steve Henson]
2504
2505 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2506 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2507 chosen compiler.
2508 [Ben Laurie]
2509
2510 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2511
2512 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2513 (CVE-2008-5077).
2514 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2515
2516 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2517 [Ben Laurie]
2518
2519 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2520 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2521 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2522 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2523
2524 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2525 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2526
2527 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2528 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2529 [Bodo Moeller]
2530
2531 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2532 s_client and s_server.
2533 [Ben Laurie]
2534
2535 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2536 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2537
2538 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2539 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2540
2541 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2542 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2543 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2544 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2545 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2546 [Bodo Moeller]
2547
2548 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2549
2550 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2551 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2552 [PR #1679]
2553
2554 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2555 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2556 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2557
2558 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2559 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2560 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2561 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2562
2563 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2564 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2565
2566 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2567
2568 *) Various precautionary measures:
2569
2570 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2571
2572 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2573 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2574 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2575
2576 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2577 outside the expected range.
2578
2579 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2580 builds.
2581
2582 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2583
2584 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2585 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2586 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2587
2588 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2589 [Steve Henson]
2590
2591 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2592 [Huang Ying]
2593
2594 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2595
2596 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2597 [Steve Henson]
2598
2599 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2600 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2601 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2602
2603 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2604 [Steve Henson]
2605
2606 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2607 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2608 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2609 files.
2610 [Steve Henson]
2611
2612 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2613
2614 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2615 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2616 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2617 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2618
2619 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2620 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2621 [Joe Orton]
2622
2623 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2624
2625 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2626 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2627 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2628
2629 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2630
2631 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2632 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2633 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2634 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2635 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2636
2637 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2638 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2639 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2640 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2641 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2642 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2643 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2644
2645 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2646
2647 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2648 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2649 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2650 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2651 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2652
2653 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2654 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2655
2656 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2657 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2658 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2659 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2660 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2661
2662 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2663
2664 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2665 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2666 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2667 sets may exist with different names.
2668 [Steve Henson]
2669
2670 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2671 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2672 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2673 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2674 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2675 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2676 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2677 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2678 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2679 implementation.
2680 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2681
2682 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2683 implemention in the following ways:
2684
2685 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2686 hard coded.
2687
2688 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2689 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2690 ignored for embedded content.
2691
2692 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2693 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2694 [Steve Henson]
2695
2696 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2697 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2698 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2699 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2700
2701 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2702 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2703 [Steve Henson]
2704
2705 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2706 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2707 [Steve Henson]
2708
2709 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2710 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2711 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2712 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2713 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2714 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2715 data.
2716 [Steve Henson]
2717
2718 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2719 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2720 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2721
2722 *) Netware support:
2723
2724 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2725 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2726 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2727 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2728 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2729 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2730 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2731 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2732 platform
2733 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2734 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2735 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2736 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2737 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2738 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2739 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2740
2741 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2742 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2743 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2744 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2745 to s_client and s_server.
2746 [Steve Henson]
2747
2748 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2749
2750 *) Fix various bugs:
2751 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2752 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2753 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2754 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2755 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2756
2757 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2758
2759 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2760 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2761 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2762 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2763 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2764 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2765 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2766 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2767 [Andy Polyakov]
2768
2769 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2770 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2771 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2772 Steve Henson]
2773
2774 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2775 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2776 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2777 supported.
2778
2779 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2780 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2781 SSL_SESSION.
2782
2783 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2784 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2785 with no application modification.
2786
2787 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2788 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2789
2790 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2791 or server extensions to be examined.
2792
2793 This work was sponsored by Google.
2794 [Steve Henson]
2795
2796 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2797 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2798 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2799 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2800 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2801 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2802 server_name extension.
2803
2804 New functions (subject to change):
2805
2806 SSL_get_servername()
2807 SSL_get_servername_type()
2808 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2809
2810 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2811
2812 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2813 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2814 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2815 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2816 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2817
2818 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2819
2820 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2821 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2822 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2823 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2824 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2825 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2826 option.
2827
2828 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2829
2830 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2831 [Steve Henson]
2832
2833 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2834 [Andy Polyakov]
2835
2836 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2837 (which previously caused an internal error).
2838 [Bodo Moeller]
2839
2840 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2841 [Ben Laurie]
2842
2843 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2844 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2845
2846 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2847 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2848 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2849
2850 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2851 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2852 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2853 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2854
2855 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2856 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2857 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2858 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2859
2860 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2861 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2862 information. For detailed background information, see
2863 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2864 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2865 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2866 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2867 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2868 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2869 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2870 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2871 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2872 remove a conditional branch.
2873
2874 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2875 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2876 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2877 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2878 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2879 remains as a deprecated alias.
2880
2881 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2882 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2883 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2884 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2885
2886 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2887 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2888 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2889 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2890 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2891 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2892 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2893 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2894
2895 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2896
2897 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2898 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2899 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2900 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2901 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2902 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2903 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2904 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2905 in a different context.
2906 [Bodo Moeller]
2907
2908 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2909 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2910 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2911 [Bodo Moeller]
2912
2913 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2914 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2915 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2916
2917 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2918
2919 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2920 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2921 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2922 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2923 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2924 [Victor Duchovni]
2925
2926 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2927 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2928 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2929 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2930 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2931 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2932 [Bodo Moeller]
2933
2934 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2935 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2936 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2937 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2938 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2939 [Bodo Moeller]
2940
2941 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2942 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2943
2944 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2945 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2946 Improve header file function name parsing.
2947 [Steve Henson]
2948
2949 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2950 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2951 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2952
2953 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2954
2955 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2956 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2957 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2958
2959 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2960 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2961
2962 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2963 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2964
2965 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2966 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2967 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2968
2969 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2970 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2971 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2972 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2973 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2974 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2975 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2976 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2977 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2978
2979 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2980 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2981 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2982 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2983 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2984
2985 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2986 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2987 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2988 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2989 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2990 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2991 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2992 multiple values to extend the available space.

2994 [Bodo Moeller]
2995
2996 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2997
2998 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2999 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3000
3001 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3002 [Ben Laurie]
3003
3004 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3005 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3006 undesirable limitations.
3007 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3008
3009 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3010 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3011 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3012 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3013 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3014 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3015 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3016 [Bodo Moeller]
3017
3018 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3019
3020 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3021 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3022 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3023
3024 The latter two were purportedly from
3025 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3026 appear there.
3027
3028 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3029 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3030 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3031 [Bodo Moeller]
3032
3033 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3034 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3035 [Bodo Moeller]
3036
3037 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3038 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3039 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3040 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3041
3042 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3043 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3044 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3045 [NTT]
3046
3047 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3048 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3049 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3050 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3051 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3052 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3053 [Steve Henson]
3054
3055 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3056
3057 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3058 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3059 [Steve Henson]
3060
3061 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3062 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3063
3064 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3065 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3066 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3067 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3068 [Douglas Stebila]
3069
3070 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3071 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3072 [Steve Henson]
3073
3074 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3075 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3076 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3077 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3078 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3079 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3080 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3081 can't be loaded.
3082 [Steve Henson]
3083
3084 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3085 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3086 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3087 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3088 [Steve Henson]
3089
3090 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3091 under VC++ build system.
3092 [Steve Henson]
3093
3094 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3095 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3096 [Richard Levitte]
3097
3098 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3099
3100 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3101 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3102 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3103 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3104 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3105
3106 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3107 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3108 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3109
3110 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3111 [Steve Henson]
3112
3113 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3114 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3115 [Nils Larsch]
3116
3117 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3118 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3119
3120 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3121 [Nick Mathewson]
3122
3123 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3124 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3125
3126 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3127 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3128 [Steve Henson]
3129
3130 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3131 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3132 smime utility.
3133 [Steve Henson]
3134
3135 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3136
3137 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3138 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3139
3140 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3141 [Richard Levitte]
3142
3143 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3144 key into the same file any more.
3145 [Richard Levitte]
3146
3147 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3148 [Andy Polyakov]
3149
3150 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3151 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3152
3153 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3154 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3155 [Richard Levitte]
3156
3157 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3158 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3159 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3160 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3161 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3162 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3163
3164 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3165 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3166 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3167 [Steve Henson]
3168
3169 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3170 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3171 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3172 - add new function for parameter creation
3173 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3174 BN_BLINDING parameters
3175 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3176 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3177 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3178 threads.
3179 [Nils Larsch]
3180
3181 *) Add support for DTLS.
3182 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3183
3184 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3185 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3186 [Walter Goulet]
3187
3188 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3189 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3190 [Nils Larsch]
3191
3192 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3193 the apps/openssl applications.
3194 [Nils Larsch]
3195
3196 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3197 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3198 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3199 [Ben Laurie]
3200
3201 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3202 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3203
3204 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3205 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3206
3207 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3208 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3209 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3210 avoid this algorithm.)
3211
3212 [Bodo Moeller]
3213
3214 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3215 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3216 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3217 [Richard Levitte]
3218
3219 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3220 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3221 [Andy Polyakov]
3222
3223 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3224 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3225 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3226 pod file:
3227
3228 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3229
3230 The blank line is mandatory.
3231
3232 [Steve Henson]
3233
3234 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3235 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3236 sources.
3237 [Steve Henson]
3238
3239 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3240 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3241
3242 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3243 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3244 to support policy checking and print out.
3245 [Steve Henson]
3246
3247 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3248 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3249 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3250 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3251
3252 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3253 [Geoff Thorpe]
3254
3255 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3256 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3257
3258 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3259 implementation contributed by IBM.
3260 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3261
3262 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3263 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3264 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3265 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3266
3267 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3268 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3269
3270 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3271 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3272 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3273 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3274 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3275 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3276 [Steve Henson]
3277
3278 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3279 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3280 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3281 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3282 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3283 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3284 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3285 [Geoff Thorpe]
3286
3287 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3288 [Steve Henson]
3289
3290 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3291 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3292 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3293 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3294 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3295 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3296 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3297 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3298 [Steve Henson]
3299
3300 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3301 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3302 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3303 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3304 [Steve Henson]
3305
3306 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3307 syntax:
3308
3309 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3310 [Steve Henson]
3311
3312 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3313 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3314 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3315 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3316 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3317 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3318 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3319 [Geoff Thorpe]
3320
3321 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3322 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3323 [Geoff Thorpe]
3324
3325 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3326 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3327 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3328 [Steve Henson]
3329
3330 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3331 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3332 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3333 below).
3334 [Geoff Thorpe]
3335
3336 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3337 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3338 [Richard Levitte]
3339
3340 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3341 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3342 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3343 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3344 [Geoff Thorpe]
3345
3346 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3347 initialised value as BN_new().
3348 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3349
3350 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3351 [Steve Henson]
3352
3353 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3354 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3355 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3356 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3357 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3358 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3359 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3360 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3361 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3362 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3363 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3364 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3365 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3366 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3367 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3368
3369 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3370 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3371 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3372 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3373 [Geoff Thorpe]
3374
3375 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3376 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3377 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3378 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3379 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3380 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3381 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3382 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3383 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3384 [Geoff Thorpe]
3385
3386 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3387 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3388 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3389 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3390 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3391 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3392 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3393 [Geoff Thorpe]
3394
3395 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3396 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3397 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3398 these have been updated also.
3399 [Geoff Thorpe]
3400
3401 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3402 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3403 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3404 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3405 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3406 functions.
3407 [Steve Henson]
3408
3409 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3410 structure of type "other".
3411 [Steve Henson]
3412
3413 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3414 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3415 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3416 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3417 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3418 situation in the script.
3419 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3420
3421 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3422 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3423 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3424 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3425 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3426 used as premaster secret.
3427 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3428
3429 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3430 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3431 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3432
3433 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3434 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3435
3436 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3437 control of the error stack.
3438 [Richard Levitte]
3439
3440 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3441 [Richard Levitte]
3442
3443 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3444 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3445 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3446 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3447 [Richard Levitte]
3448
3449 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3450 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3451 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3452 [Richard Levitte]
3453
3454 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3455 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3456 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3457 a memory area.
3458 [Richard Levitte]
3459
3460 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3461 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3462 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3463 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3464 [Richard Levitte]
3465
3466 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3467 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3468 the following flags are defined:
3469
3470 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3471 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3472 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3473 number.
3474
3475 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3476 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3477 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3478 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3479 returns zero.
3480 [Richard Levitte]
3481
3482 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3483 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3484 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3485 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3486 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3487 [Richard Levitte]
3488
3489 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3490 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3491 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3492 [Richard Levitte]
3493
3494 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3495 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3496 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3497 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3498 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3499 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3500 [Richard Levitte]
3501
3502 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3503 req and dirName.
3504 [Steve Henson]
3505
3506 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3507 [Steve Henson]
3508
3509 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3510 [Steve Henson]
3511
3512 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3513 [Steve Henson]
3514
3515 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3516 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3517 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3518 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3519 default implementation more easily.
3520 [Geoff Thorpe]
3521
3522 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3523 in config files.
3524 [Steve Henson]
3525
3526 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3527 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3528 [Richard Levitte]
3529
3530 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3531 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3532 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3533 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3534
3535 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3536 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3537 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3538 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3539 [Steve Henson]
3540
3541 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3542 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3543 to do it.
3544 [Richard Levitte]
3545
3546 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3547 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3548 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3549 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3550 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3551 scalar * generator).
3552 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3553
3554 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3555 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3556 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3557 correctly.
3558 [Steve Henson]
3559
3560 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3561 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3562 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3563 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3564 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3565 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3566 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3567 linker additions, eg;
3568 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3569 [Geoff Thorpe]
3570
3571 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3572 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3573 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3574 [Geoff Thorpe]
3575
3576 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3577 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3578 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3579 via PR#459)
3580 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3581
3582 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3583 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3584 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3585 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3586 [Geoff Thorpe]
3587
3588 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3589 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3590 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3591 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3592 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3593 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3594 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3595 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3596 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3597 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3598
3599 Example for using the new callback interface:
3600
3601 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3602 void *my_arg = ...;
3603 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3604
3605 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3606
3607 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3608 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3609 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3610 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3611 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3612 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3613 */
3614
3615 [Geoff Thorpe]
3616
3617 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3618 available to TLS with the number defined in
3619 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3620 [Richard Levitte]
3621
3622 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3623 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3624
3625 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3626 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3627 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3628 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3629
3630 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3631 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3632
3633 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3634 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3635 well.
3636 [Richard Levitte]
3637
3638 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3639 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3640 [Richard Levitte]
3641
3642 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3643 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3644 and a macro that behave like
3645 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3646
3647 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3648 [Nils Larsch]
3649
3650 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3651 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3652 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3653 if applicable.
3654 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3655
3656 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3657 [Bodo Moeller]
3658
3659 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3660 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3661 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3662 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3663 directory engines/.
3664 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3665 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3666 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3667 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3668 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3669 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3670 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3671 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3672
3673 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3674 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3675 [Richard Levitte]
3676
3677 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3678 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3679
3680 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3681 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3682 files while avoiding the low level API.
3683
3684 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3685 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3686 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3687 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3688
3689 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3690 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3691 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3692 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3693 instead of the low level API.
3694 [Steve Henson]
3695
3696 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3697 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3698 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3699 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3700 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3701 PKCS#7 code.
3702
3703 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3704 down to the template encoder.
3705 [Steve Henson]
3706
3707 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3708 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3709 [Bodo Moeller]
3710
3711 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3712 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3713 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3714 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3715
3716 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3717 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3718
3719 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3720 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3721
3722 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3723 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3724 [Bodo Moeller]
3725
3726 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3727 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3728 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3729 [Bodo Moeller]
3730
3731 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3732 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3733
3734 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3735 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3736
3737 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3738 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3739 New EC_METHOD:
3740
3741 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3742
3743 New API functions:
3744
3745 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3746 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3747 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3748 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3749 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3750 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3751
3752 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3753 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3754 enable it).
3755
3756 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3757 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3758 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3759 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3760 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3761 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3762 various internal method names.)
3763
3764 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3765 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3766
3767 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3768 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3769
3770 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3771 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3772
3773 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3774 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3775 methods are undefined.
3776
3777 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3778 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3779
3780 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3781 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3782 length of the modulus.
3783
3784 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3785 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3786
3787 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3788 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3789
3790 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3791 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3792
3793 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3794 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3795 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3796
3797 BN_GF2m_add
3798 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3799 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3800 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3801 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3802 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3803 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3804 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3805 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3806 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3807
3808 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3809 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3810
3811 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3812 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3813 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3814 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3815 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3816 where
3817 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3818 This applies to the following functions:
3819
3820 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3821 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3822 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3823 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3824 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3825 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3826 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3827 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3828 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3829 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3830
3831 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3832
3833 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3834 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3835
3836 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3837
3838 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3839 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3840 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3841 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3842 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3843
3844 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3845 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3846
3847 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3848 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3849 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3850
3851 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3852 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3853
3854 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3855 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3856 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3857 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3858 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3859
3860 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3861 functions
3862 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3863 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3864 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3865 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3866 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3867 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3868 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3869 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3870 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3871 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3872 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3873 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3874
3875 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3876 functions
3877 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3878 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3879 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3880 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3881 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3882
3883 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3884 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3885 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3886 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3887
3888 *) Add functions
3889 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3890 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3891 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3892 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3893 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3894 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3895 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3896
3897 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3898 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3899 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3900 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3901 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3902 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3903 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3904 adding different types of curves.
3905 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3906
3907 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3908 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3909 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3910 [Bodo Moeller]
3911
3912 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3913 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3914
3915 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3916 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3917 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3918 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3919
3920 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3921
3922 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3923 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3924
3925 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3926 library. Most notably,
3927 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3928 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3929 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3930 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3931 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3932 extracted before the specific public key;
3933 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3934 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3935
3936 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3937 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3938 function
3939 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3940 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3941 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3942 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3943 accessed via
3944 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3945 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3946 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3947
3948 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3949 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3950 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3951 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3952 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3953 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3954 differing sizes.
3955 [Richard Levitte]
3956
3957 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3958
3959 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3960 sensitive data.
3961 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3962
3963 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3964 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3965 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3966 [Bodo Moeller]
3967
3968 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3969 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3970 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3971 [Victor Duchovni]
3972
3973 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3974 [Steve Henson]
3975
3976 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3977 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3978 [Steve Henson]
3979
3980 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3981 run algorithm test programs.
3982 [Steve Henson]
3983
3984 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3985 [Steve Henson]
3986
3987 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3988 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3989 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3990 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3991 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3992 [Bodo Moeller]
3993
3994 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3995 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3996 [Steve Henson]
3997
3998 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3999
4000 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4001 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4002 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4003
4004 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4005 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4006
4007 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4008 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4009
4010 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4011 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4012 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4013
4014 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4015 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4016 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4017 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4018 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4019 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4020 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4021 [Bodo Moeller]
4022
4023 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4024
4025 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4026 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4027
4028 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4029 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4030 undesirable limitations.
4031 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4032
4033 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4034
4035 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4036 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4037 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4038
4039 The latter two were purportedly from
4040 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4041 appear there.
4042
4043 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4044 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4045 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4046 [Bodo Moeller]
4047
4048 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4049 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4050 [Bodo Moeller]
4051
4052 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4053
4054 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4055 module in FIPS mode.
4056 [Steve Henson]
4057
4058 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4059 [Steve Henson]
4060
4061 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4062 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4063 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4064 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4065 [Steve Henson]
4066
4067 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4068
4069 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4070 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4071 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4072 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4073 the difference induced by this change.
4074 [Andy Polyakov]
4075
4076 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4077
4078 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4079 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4080 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4081 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4082 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4083
4084 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4085 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4086 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4087
4088 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4089 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4090 [Steve Henson]
4091
4092 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4093 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4094 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4095 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4096 biased k.)
4097 [Bodo Moeller]
4098
4099 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4100 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4101 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4102 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4103 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4104
4105 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4106 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4107 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4108 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4109 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4110 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4111
4112 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4113
4114 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4115 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4116 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4117 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4118 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4119 [Bodo Moeller]
4120
4121 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4122 clients need.
4123 [Steve Henson]
4124
4125 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4126 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4127 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4128 [Steve Henson]
4129
4130 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4131 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4132 structures constant.
4133 [Steve Henson]
4134
4135 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4136
4137 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4138 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4139
4140 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4141 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4142 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4143 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4144 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4145 some needed definitions.
4146 [Steve Henson]
4147
4148 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4149 [Ulf Möller]
4150
4151 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4152 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4153 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4154 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4155 [Richard Levitte]
4156
4157 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4158
4159 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4160 server and client random values. Previously
4161 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4162 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4163
4164 This change has negligible security impact because:
4165
4166 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4167 data.
4168
4169 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4170 handshake.
4171
4172 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4173 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4174 values.
4175
4176 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4177 to our attention.
4178
4179 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4180
4181 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4182 [Ulf Möller]
4183
4184 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4185 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4186 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4187
4188 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4189 [Steve Henson]
4190
4191 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4192 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4193 [Andy Polyakov]
4194
4195 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4196 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4197 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4198
4199 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4200 [Steve Henson]
4201
4202 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4203 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4204 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4205 certificates.
4206 [Steve Henson]
4207
4208 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4209 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4210 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4211 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4212
4213 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4214 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4215 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4216 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4217 been given)
4218 [Richard Levitte]
4219
4220 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4221
4222 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4223 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4224 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4225 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4226 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4227 [Steve Henson]
4228
4229 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4230 [Steve Henson]
4231
4232 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4233 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4234
4235 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4236 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4237 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4238 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4239 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4240 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4241 rather than being initialized to 1.
4242 [Steve Henson]
4243
4244 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4245
4246 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4247 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4248 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4249
4250 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4251 (CVE-2004-0112)
4252 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4253
4254 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4255 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4256 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4257 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4258 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4259 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4260 [Richard Levitte]
4261
4262 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4263 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4264 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4265 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4266 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4267 for these cases.
4268 [Steve Henson]
4269
4270 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4271 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4272 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4273 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4274 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4275 [Steve Henson]
4276
4277 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4278 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4279 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4280 < 0.9.7.
4281 [Steve Henson]
4282
4283 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4284 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4285
4286 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4287 [Steve Henson]
4288
4289 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4290
4291 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4292
4293 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4294 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4295
4296 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4297
4298 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4299 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4300
4301 [Steve Henson]
4302
4303 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4304 exiting on the first error in a request.
4305 [Steve Henson]
4306
4307 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4308 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4309 specifications.
4310 [Steve Henson]
4311
4312 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4313 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4314 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4315 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4316
4317 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4318 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4319 [Richard Levitte]
4320
4321 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4322 blocks during encryption.
4323 [Richard Levitte]
4324
4325 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4326 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4327 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4328 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4329 certain size.
4330 [Steve Henson]
4331
4332 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4333 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4334 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4335 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4336 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4337 parser.
4338 [Steve Henson]
4339
4340 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4341
4342 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4343 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4344 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4345 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4346 [Bodo Moeller]
4347
4348 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4349 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4350 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4351 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4352 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4353
4354 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4355 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4356 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4357 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4358 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4359 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4360 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4361 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4362 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4363 [Bodo Moeller]
4364
4365 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4366 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4367 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4368 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4369 [Geoff Thorpe]
4370
4371 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4372 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4373 [Ulf Moeller]
4374
4375 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4376
4377 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4378 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4379 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4380 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4381 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4382
4383 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4384 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4385 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4386
4387 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4388 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4389 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4390 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4391 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4392
4393 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4394 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4395 used by default when no-err is given.
4396 [Richard Levitte]
4397
4398 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4399 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4400
4401 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4402 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4403 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4404 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4405 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4406
4407 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4408 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4409 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4410 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4411
4412 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4413
4414 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4415
4416 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4417
4418 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4419 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4420 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4421 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4422 root is omitted).
4423 [Steve Henson]
4424
4425 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4426 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4427
4428 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4429 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4430 [Steve Henson]
4431
4432 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4433 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4434 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4435 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4436 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4437
4438 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4439 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4440 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4441 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4442 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4443 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4444 followup to PR #377.
4445 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4446
4447 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4448 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4449 [Andy Polyakov]
4450
4451 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4452 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4453 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4454 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4455
4456 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4457
4458 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4459 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4460
4461 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4462 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4463 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4464 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4465 client and server.
4466 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4467 PR #377.
4468 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4469
4470 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4471 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4472 removed entirely.
4473 [Richard Levitte]
4474
4475 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4476 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4477 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4478 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4479 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4480 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4481 of libcrypto.
4482 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4483 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4484 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4485 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4486 have to be made anyway).
4487 [Richard Levitte]
4488
4489 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4490 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4491 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4492 [Steve Henson]
4493
4494 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4495 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4496 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4497 [Richard Levitte]
4498
4499 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4500 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4501 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4502
4503 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4504 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4505 edit numbers of the version.
4506 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4507
4508 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4509 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4510 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4511
4512 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4513 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4514
4515 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4516 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4517 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4518
4519 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4520 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4521
4522 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4523 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4524
4525 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4526 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4527
4528 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4529 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4530
4531 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4532 overflows.
4533 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4534
4535 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4536 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4537 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4538
4539 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4540 representations in a platform independent manner.
4541 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4542
4543 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4544 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4545 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4546
4547 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4548 indents.
4549 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4550
4551 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4552 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4553
4554 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4555 full. Fixed.
4556 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4557
4558 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4559 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4560 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4561
4562 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4563 unconditionally).
4564 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4565
4566 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4567 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4568
4569 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4570 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4571
4572 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4573 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4574
4575 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4576 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4577
4578 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4579 CBCParameter.
4580 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4581
4582 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4583 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4584
4585 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4586 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4587
4588 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4589 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4590 exploitable.
4591 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4592
4593 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4594 the 0.9.6 release series:
4595
4596 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4597 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4598 (CVE-2002-0657)
4599 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4600
4601 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4602 [Richard Levitte]
4603
4604 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4605 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4606
4607 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4608 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4609
4610 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4611 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4612 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4613 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4614
4615 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4616 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4617 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4618
4619 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4620 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4621 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4622 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4623
4624 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4625 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4626 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4627 some local tweaks:
4628
4629 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4630 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4631 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4632 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4633 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4634 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4635 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4636 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4637 done
4638
4639 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4640 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4641 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4642 [Richard Levitte]
4643
4644 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4645 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4646 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4647 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4648 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4649
4650 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4651 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4652
4653 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4654 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4655 [Richard Levitte]
4656
4657 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4658 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4659 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4660 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4661 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4662 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4663 [Steve Henson]
4664
4665 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4666 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4667 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4668 [Steve Henson]
4669
4670 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4671 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4672 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4673
4674 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4675 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4676 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4677 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4678 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4679 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4680 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4681 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4682
4683 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4684 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4685 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4686 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4687 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4688 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4689 [Steve Henson]
4690
4691 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4692 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4693 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4694 declaration has been changed from
4695 int (*cb)()
4696 into
4697 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4698 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4699 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4700 has been changed into
4701 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4702
4703 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4704 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4705 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4706
4707 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4708 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4709
4710 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4711 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4712 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4713 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4714 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4715 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4716 always load it have also been added.
4717 [Steve Henson]
4718
4719 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4720 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4721 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4722
4723 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4724
4725 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4726 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4727 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4728
4729 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4730 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4731 command line option can be used to specify an
4732 alternative file.
4733 [Steve Henson]
4734
4735 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4736 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4737 [Steve Henson]
4738
4739 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4740 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4741 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4742 [Steve Henson]
4743
4744 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4745 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4746 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4747 to work with the new engine framework.
4748 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4749
4750 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4751 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4752 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4753 to work with the new engine framework.
4754 [Richard Levitte]
4755
4756 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4757 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4758 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4759
4760 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4761 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4762
4763 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4764 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4765 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4766 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4767 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4768 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4769
4770 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4771 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4772
4773 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4774 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4775
4776 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4777 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4778 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4779 [Ben Laurie]
4780
4781 *) Add new functions
4782 ERR_peek_last_error
4783 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4784 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4785 These are similar to
4786 ERR_peek_error
4787 ERR_peek_error_line
4788 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4789 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4790 still in the error queue.
4791 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4792
4793 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4794 like:
4795 default_algorithms = ALL
4796 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4797 [Steve Henson]
4798
4799 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4800 [Steve Henson]
4801
4802 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4803 [Steve Henson]
4804
4805 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4806 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4807 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4808 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4809
4810 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4811 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4812
4813 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4814 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4815
4816 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4817 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4818 [Bodo Moeller]
4819
4820 *) New functions/macros
4821
4822 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4823 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4824 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4825 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4826
4827 to request calling a callback function
4828
4829 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4830 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4831
4832 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4833 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4834 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4835 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4836 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4837 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4838 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4839 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4840 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4841 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4842
4843 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4844 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4845 [Bodo Moeller]
4846
4847 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4848 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4849 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4850 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4851 the configuration scripts.
4852
4853 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4854 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4855 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4856
4857 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4858 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4859
4860 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4861 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4862 when reusing an existing buffer.
4863 [Bodo Moeller]
4864
4865 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4866 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4867 [Steve Henson]
4868
4869 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4870 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4871 [Ben Laurie]
4872
4873 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4874 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4875 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4876 has the same effect.
4877 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4878
4879 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4880 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4881 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4882 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4883 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4884 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4885 exception.
4886
4887 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4888 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4889 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4890 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4891
4892 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4893 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4894 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4895 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4896
4897 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4898 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4899 won't work.
4900
4901 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4902 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4903 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4904 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4905 default), and then completely removed.
4906 [Richard Levitte]
4907
4908 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4909 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4910 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4911 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4912 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4913 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4914 particular extension is supported.
4915 [Steve Henson]
4916
4917 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4918 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4919 [Steve Henson]
4920
4921 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4922 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4923 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4924 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4925 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4926 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4927 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4928 requires the destination to be valid.
4929
4930 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4931 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4932 [Steve Henson]
4933
4934 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4935 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4936 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4937 [Bodo Moeller]
4938
4939 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4940 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4941
4942 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4943 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4944 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4945 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4946 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4947 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4948 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4949 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4950 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4951 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4952 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4953 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4954 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4955 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4956 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4957 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4958 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4959 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4960 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4961 the new code.
4962 [Geoff Thorpe]
4963
4964 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4965 [Steve Henson]
4966
4967 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4968 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4969 become part of libeay.num as well.
4970 [Richard Levitte]
4971
4972 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4973 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4974 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4975 false once a handshake has been completed.
4976 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4977 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4978 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4979 client has followed the request.)
4980 [Bodo Moeller]
4981
4982 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4983 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4984 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4985 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4986
4987 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4988 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4989 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4990 [Bodo Moeller]
4991
4992 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4993 [Steve Henson]
4994
4995 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4996 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4997 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4998 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4999
5000 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5001 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5002 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5003
5004 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5005 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5006 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5007 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5008 [Geoff Thorpe]
5009
5010 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5011 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5012 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5013 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5014 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5015 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5016 [Geoff Thorpe]
5017
5018 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5019 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5020 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5021 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5022 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5023 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5024 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5025 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5026 [Geoff Thorpe]
5027
5028 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5029 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5030 [Geoff Thorpe]
5031
5032 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5033 [Ben Laurie]
5034
5035 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5036 md_data void pointer.
5037 [Ben Laurie]
5038
5039 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5040 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5041 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5042 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5043 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5044 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5045 [Ben Laurie]
5046
5047 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5048 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5049 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5050 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5051 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5052 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5053 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5054 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5055 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5056 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5057 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5058 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5059 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5060 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5061 rather than letting it slide.
5062
5063 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5064 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5065 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5066 [Geoff Thorpe]
5067
5068 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5069 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5070 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5071 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5072 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5073 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5074 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5075 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5076 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5077 [Geoff Thorpe]
5078
5079 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5080 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5081 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5082 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5083 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5084
5085 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5086 [Geoff Thorpe]
5087
5088 *) Add EVP test program.
5089 [Ben Laurie]
5090
5091 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5092 [Ben Laurie]
5093
5094 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5095 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5096 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5097 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5098 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5099 [Steve Henson]
5100
5101 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5102 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5103 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5104 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5105 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5106 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5107 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5108
5109 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5110 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5111 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5112 Usage example:
5113
5114 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5115
5116 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5117 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5118 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5119 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5120 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5121
5122 [Ben Laurie]
5123
5124 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5125 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5126 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5127 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5128 anyway): E.g.,
5129
5130 des_key_schedule ks;
5131
5132 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5133 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5134
5135 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5136 [Ben Laurie]
5137
5138 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5139 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5140 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5141 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5142 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5143 functions prevents this.
5144 [Steve Henson]
5145
5146 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5147 [Ben Laurie]
5148
5149 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5150 correct _ecb suffix.
5151 [Ben Laurie]
5152
5153 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5154 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5155 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5156 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5157 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5158 [Steve Henson]
5159
5160 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5161 [Richard Levitte]
5162
5163 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5164 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5165 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5166 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5167
5168 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5169 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5170
5171 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5172 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5173 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5174 via Richard Levitte]
5175
5176 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5177 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5178 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5179 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5180 [Geoff Thorpe]
5181
5182 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5183 Before:
5184 encrypt
5185 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
5186 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k

5193 After:

5198 [Ben Laurie]
5199
5200 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5201 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5202
5203 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5204 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5205 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5206 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5207 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5208 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5209 [Steve Henson]
5210
5211 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5212 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5213 [Richard Levitte]
5214
5215 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5216 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5217 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5218 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5219
5220 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5221 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5222 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5223 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5224 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5225 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5226 callback.
5227 [Richard Levitte]
5228
5229 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5230 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5231 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5232 and interrupts/cancellations.
5233 [Richard Levitte]
5234
5235 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5236 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5237 [Steve Henson]
5238
5239 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5240 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5241 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5242
5243 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5244 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5245 kind of callback.
5246 [Richard Levitte]
5247
5248 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5249 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5250 than this minimum value is recommended.
5251 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5252
5253 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5254 that are easily reachable.
5255 [Richard Levitte]
5256
5257 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5258 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5259
5260 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5261
5262 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5263 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5264 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5265 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5266 [Steve Henson]
5267
5268 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5269 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5270 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5271 [Steve Henson]
5272
5273 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5274 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5275 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5276 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5277 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5278 internally such as S/MIME.
5279
5280 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5281 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5282 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5283
5284 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5285 applications.
5286 [Steve Henson]
5287
5288 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5289 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5290 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5291 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5292
5293 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5294
5295 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5296
5297 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5298 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5299 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5300 handling.
5301 [Steve Henson]
5302
5303 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5304 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5305 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5306 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5307 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5308 a window system and the like.
5309 [Richard Levitte]
5310
5311 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5312 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5313 [Geoff]
5314
5315 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5316 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5317 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5318 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5319 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5320 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5321 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5322 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5323 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5324 ENGINE structure.
5325 [Geoff]
5326
5327 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5328 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5329 tag cache.
5330 [Steve Henson]
5331
5332 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5333 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5334 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5335 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5336 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5337 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5338 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5339 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5340 [Geoff]
5341
5342 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5343 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5344 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5345 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5346 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5347 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5348 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5349 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5350 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5351 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5352 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5353 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5354 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5355 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5356 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5357 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5358 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5359 [Geoff]
5360
5361 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5362 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5363 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5364 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5365 internal engine_int.h header.
5366 [Geoff]
5367
5368 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5369 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5370 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5371 modify their own ones).
5372 [Geoff]
5373
5374 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5375 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5376 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5377 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5378 later on via ctrl() commands.
5379 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5380 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5381 structural references.
5382 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5383 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5384 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5385 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5386 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5387 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5388 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5389 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5390 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5391 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5392 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5393 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5394 [Geoff]
5395
5396 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5397 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5398 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5399 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5400 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5401 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5402 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5403 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5404 [Bodo Moeller]
5405
5406 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5407 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5408 [Steve Henson]
5409
5410 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5411 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5412 [Steve Henson]
5413
5414 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5415 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5416 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5417 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5418 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5419 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5420 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5421 [Steve Henson]
5422
5423 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5424 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5425 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5426 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5427 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5428
5429 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5430 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5431 generator).
5432 [Bodo Moeller]
5433
5434 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5435
5436 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5437 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5438 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5439
5440 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5441 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5442
5443 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5444 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5445 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5446
5447 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5448 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5449
5450 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5451 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5452
5453 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5454
5455 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5456 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5457 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5458 [Bodo Moeller]
5459
5460 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5461 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5462 [Richard Levitte]
5463
5464 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5465 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5466 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5467 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5468 is 40 of more characters long.
5469 [Steve Henson]
5470
5471 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5472 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5473 pointers.
5474 [Steve Henson]
5475
5476 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5477 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5478 [Bodo Moeller]
5479
5480 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5481 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5482 might.
5483 [Steve Henson]
5484
5485 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5486
5487 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5488 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5489
5490 ASN1 error codes
5491 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5492 ...
5493 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5494 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5495 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5496 ...
5497 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5498 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5499
5500 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5501 [Bodo Moeller]
5502
5503 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5504 suffices.
5505 [Bodo Moeller]
5506
5507 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5508 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5509 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5510 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5511 and
5512 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5513
5514 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5515 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5516
5517 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5518 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5519 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5520 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5521 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5522 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5523
5524 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5525 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5526
5527 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5528 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5529
5530 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5531 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5532
5533 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5534 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5535 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5536 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5537
5538 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5539 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5540
5541 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5542 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5543
5544 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5545 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5546 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5547 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5548 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5549 [Richard Levitte]
5550
5551 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5552 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5553 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5554 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5555 [Steve Henson]
5556
5557 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5558 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5559 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5560 trust settings.
5561 [Steve Henson]
5562
5563 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5564 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5565 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5566 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5567 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5568 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5569 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5570 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5571 ocsp utility.
5572 [Steve Henson]
5573
5574 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5575 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5576 [Steve Henson]
5577
5578 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5579 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5580 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5581 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5582 [Steve Henson]
5583
5584 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5585 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5586 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5587 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5588 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5589 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5590 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5591 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5592 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5593 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5594 [Steve Henson]
5595
5596 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5597 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5598 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5599 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5600 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5601 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5602 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5603 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5604
5605 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5606 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5607 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5608 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5609 [Richard Levitte]
5610
5611 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5612 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5613 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5614 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5615 opensslconf.h.
5616 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5617 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5618 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5619 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5620 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5621 what is available.
5622 [Richard Levitte]
5623
5624 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5625 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5626 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5627 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5628 auto incremented.
5629 [Steve Henson]
5630
5631 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5632 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5633 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5634 [Steve Henson]
5635
5636 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5637 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5638 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5639 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5640 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5641 [Steve Henson]
5642
5643 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5644 [Steve Henson]
5645
5646 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5647 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5648 option to ocsp utility.
5649 [Steve Henson]
5650
5651 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5652 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5653 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5654 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5655 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5656 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5657 the request is nonce-less.
5658 [Steve Henson]
5659
5660 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5661 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5662 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5663 [Bodo Moeller]
5664
5665 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5666 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5667 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5668 [Steve Henson]
5669
5670 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5671 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5672 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5673 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5674 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5675 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5676
5677 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5678 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5679 appear to exist.
5680 [Steve Henson]
5681
5682 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5683 additional certificates supplied.
5684 [Steve Henson]
5685
5686 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5687 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5688 signature against.
5689 [Richard Levitte]
5690
5691 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5692 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5693 AES OIDs.
5694
5695 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5696 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5697 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5698 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5699 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5700 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5701 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5702 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5703 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5704
5705 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5706 request to response.
5707 [Steve Henson]
5708
5709 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5710 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5711 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5712 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5713 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5714 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5715 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5716 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5717 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5718 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5719 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5720 [Steve Henson]
5721
5722 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5723 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5724 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5725 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5726 [Steve Henson]
5727
5728 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5729 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5730
5731 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5732 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5733 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5734 [Steve Henson]
5735
5736 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5737 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5738 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5739 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5740 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5741
5742 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5743 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5744 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5745 [Steve Henson]
5746
5747 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5748 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5749 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5750 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5751 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5752 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5753 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5754 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5755
5756 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5757 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5758 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5759 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5760 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5761 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5762 [Steve Henson]
5763
5764 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5765 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5766 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5767 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5768 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5769 printout format cleaned up.
5770 [Steve Henson]
5771
5772 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5773 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5774 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5775 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5776 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5777 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5778 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5779 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5780 [Steve Henson]
5781
5782 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5783 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5784 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5785 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5786 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5787 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5788 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5789 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5790 [Steve Henson]
5791
5792 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5793 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5794 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5795 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5796 section to use.
5797 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5798
5799 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5800 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5801 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5802 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5803 [Steve Henson]
5804
5805 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5806 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5807 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5808 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5809 in the index file.
5810 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5811
5812 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5813 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5814 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5815 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5816
5817 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5818 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5819
5820 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5821 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5822 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5823 [Steve Henson]
5824
5825 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5826 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5827 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5828 [Bodo Moeller]
5829
5830 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5831 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5832 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5833 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5834 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5835 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5836 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5837 functions are provided:
5838
5839 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5840 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5841 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5842 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5843
5844 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5845 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5846 extended allocation function is enabled.
5847 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5848 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5849 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5850
5851 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5852 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5853 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5854 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5855 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5856 [Geoff Thorpe]
5857
5858 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5859 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5860 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5861 be queried.
5862 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5863 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5864 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5865 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5866
5867 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5868 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5869 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5870 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5871 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5872 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5873 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5874 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5875 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5876 [Richard Levitte]
5877
5878 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5879 provide utility functions which an application needing
5880 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5881 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5882 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5883
5884 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5885 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5886 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5887 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5888 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5889 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5890 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5891 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5892 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5893
5894 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5895 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5896 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5897 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5898 [Steve Henson]
5899
5900 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5901 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5902 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5903 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5904 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5905 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5906 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5907 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5908 will be added elsewhere.
5909 [Steve Henson]
5910
5911 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5912 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5913 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5914 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5915 [Steve Henson]
5916
5917 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5918 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5919 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5920 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5921 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5922 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5923 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5924 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5925 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5926 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5927 to produce the required SET OF.
5928 [Steve Henson]
5929
5930 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5931 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5932 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5933 [Richard Levitte]
5934
5935 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5936 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5937 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5938 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5939 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5940 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5941 [Steve Henson]
5942
5943 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5944 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5945 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5946 [Steve Henson]
5947
5948 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5949 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5950 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5951 [Richard Levitte]
5952
5953 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5954 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5955 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5956 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5957 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5958 [Steve Henson]
5959
5960 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5961 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5962 [Steve Henson]
5963
5964 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5965 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5966 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5967 certifcates and CRLs.
5968 [Steve Henson]
5969
5970 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5971 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5972 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5973 [Steve Henson]
5974
5975 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5976 entries for variables.
5977 [Steve Henson]
5978
5979 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5980 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5981 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5982 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5983 [Bodo Moeller]
5984
5985 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5986 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5987 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5988 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5989 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5990 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5991 [Bodo Moeller]
5992
5993 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5994 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5995
5996 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5997 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5998 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5999 [Steve Henson]
6000
6001 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6002 print routines.
6003 [Steve Henson]
6004
6005 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6006 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6007 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6008 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6009 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6010 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6011 [Steve Henson]
6012
6013 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6014 [Steve Henson]
6015
6016 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6017 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6018 for now but they will eventually go away.
6019 [Steve Henson]
6020
6021 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6022 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6023 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6024 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6025 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6026 has also been converted to the new form.
6027 [Steve Henson]
6028
6029 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6030 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6031 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6032 for negative moduli.
6033 [Bodo Moeller]
6034
6035 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6036 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6037 [Bodo Moeller]
6038
6039 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6040 set.
6041 [Bodo Moeller]
6042
6043 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6044 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6045 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6046 type-specific callbacks.
6047 [Geoff Thorpe]
6048
6049 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6050 RFC 2712.
6051 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6052 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6053
6054 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6055 in sections depending on the subject.
6056 [Richard Levitte]
6057
6058 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6059 Windows.
6060 [Richard Levitte]
6061
6062 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6063 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6064 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6065 be handled deterministically).
6066 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6067
6068 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6069 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6070 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6071 [Bodo Moeller]
6072
6073 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6074 [Bodo Moeller]
6075
6076 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6077 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6078 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6079 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6080 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6081 [Bodo Moeller]
6082
6083 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6084 sign of the number in question.
6085
6086 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6087
6088 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6089 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6090 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6091 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6092 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6093 [Bodo Moeller]
6094
6095 *) New function BN_swap.
6096 [Bodo Moeller]
6097
6098 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6099 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6100 results on negative inputs.
6101 [Bodo Moeller]
6102
6103 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6104 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6105 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6106 [Bodo Moeller]
6107
6108 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6109 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6110 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6111 and add new functions:
6112
6113 BN_nnmod
6114 BN_mod_sqr
6115 BN_mod_add
6116 BN_mod_add_quick
6117 BN_mod_sub
6118 BN_mod_sub_quick
6119 BN_mod_lshift1
6120 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6121 BN_mod_lshift
6122 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6123
6124 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6125
6126 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6127 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6128
6129 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6130 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6131 be reduced modulo m.
6132 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6133
6134 #if 0
6135 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6136 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6137 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6138
6139 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6140 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6141 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6142 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6143 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6144 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6145 differing sizes.
6146 [Richard Levitte]
6147 #endif
6148
6149 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6150 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6151 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6152 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6153 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6154
6155 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6156 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6157 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6158 cause any problems.
6159 [Bodo Moeller]
6160
6161 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6162 [Richard Levitte]
6163
6164 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6165 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6166 [Richard Levitte]
6167
6168 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6169 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6170 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6171 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6172 time)
6173 [Richard Levitte]
6174
6175 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6176 [Richard Levitte]
6177
6178 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6179 [Richard Levitte]
6180
6181 *) Add the following functions:
6182
6183 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6184 ENGINE_load_chil()
6185 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6186 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6187 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6188
6189 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6190 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6191 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6192 libraries unless it's really needed.
6193
6194 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6195 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6196 declarations (they differed!).
6197 [Richard Levitte]
6198
6199 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6200 [Richard Levitte]
6201
6202 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6203 [Richard Levitte]
6204
6205 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6206 [Bodo Moeller]
6207
6208 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6209 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6210 [Richard Levitte]
6211
6212 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6213 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6214 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6215
6216 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6217 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6218 [Richard Levitte]
6219
6220 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6221 [Richard Levitte]
6222
6223 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6224 [Richard Levitte]
6225
6226 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6227 [Ben Laurie]
6228
6229 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6230 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6231 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6232
6233 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6234 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6235 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6236 different shared library filenames on each system.
6237 [Geoff Thorpe]
6238
6239 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6240 [Richard Levitte]
6241
6242 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6243 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6244 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6245 of two sections.
6246 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6247
6248 *) NCONF changes.
6249 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6250 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6251 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6252 binary backward compatibility.
6253 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6254 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6255 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6256 LDAP server.
6257 [Richard Levitte]
6258
6259 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6260 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6261 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6262 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6263 this case.
6264 [Steve Henson]
6265
6266 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6267 [Ben Laurie]
6268
6269 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6270 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6271 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6272 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6273 set.
6274 [Steve Henson]
6275
6276 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6277 [Richard Levitte]
6278
6279 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6280
6281 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6282 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6283 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6284
6285 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6286
6287 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6288
6289 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6290 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6291 [Steve Henson]
6292
6293 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6294
6295 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6296
6297 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6298 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6299
6300 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6301 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6302
6303 [Steve Henson]
6304
6305 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6306 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6307 specifications.
6308 [Steve Henson]
6309
6310 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6311 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6312 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6313 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6314
6315 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6316 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6317 [Richard Levitte]
6318
6319 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6320
6321 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6322 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6323 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6324 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6325 [Bodo Moeller]
6326
6327 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6328 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6329 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6330 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6331 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6332
6333 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6334 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6335 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6336 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6337 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6338 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6339 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6340 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6341 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6342 [Bodo Moeller]
6343
6344 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6345
6346 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6347 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6348 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6349 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6350 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6351
6352 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6353 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6354 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6355
6356 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6357
6358 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6359 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6360 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6361 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6362 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6363 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6364 [Geoff Thorpe]
6365
6366 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6367 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6368 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6369 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6370 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6371 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6372
6373 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6374 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6375 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6376
6377 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6378 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6379 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6380 EVP_cleanup().
6381 [Richard Levitte]
6382
6383 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6384 being properly terminated.
6385 [Richard Levitte]
6386
6387 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6388 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6389 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6390 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6391
6392 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6393 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6394 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6395 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6396 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6397 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6398 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6399 change.
6400 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6401
6402 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6403 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6404 [Bodo Moeller]
6405
6406 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6407 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6408 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6409 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6410 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6411 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6412 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6413 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6414
6415 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6416 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6417 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6418 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6419 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6420
6421 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6422 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6423 [Steve Henson]
6424
6425 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6426
6427 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6428 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6429 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6430
6431 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6432
6433 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6434 and get fix the header length calculation.
6435 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6436 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6437 Steve Henson]
6438
6439 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6440 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6441 assertions could call abort()).
6442 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6443
6444 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6445
6446 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6447 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6448 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6449 supplied buffer.
6450 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6451
6452 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6453 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6454 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6455 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6456
6457 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6458 [Nils Larsch]
6459
6460 *) New option
6461 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6462 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6463 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6464
6465 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6466 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6467 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6468 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6469 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6470 applications.
6471 [Bodo Moeller]
6472
6473 *) Changes in security patch:
6474
6475 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6476 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6477 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6478 F30602-01-2-0537.
6479
6480 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6481 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6482 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6483 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6484 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6485
6486 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6487 happen in practice.
6488 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6489
6490 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6491 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6492 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6493
6494 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6495 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6496 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6497
6498 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6499 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6500 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6501
6502 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6503
6504 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6505 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6506 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6507
6508 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6509 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6510
6511 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6512 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6513 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6514 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6515 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6516 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6517 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6518
6519 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6520 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6521 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6522 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6523 [Bodo Moeller]
6524
6525 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6526 [Bodo Moeller]
6527
6528 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6529 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6530 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6531 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6532 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6533 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6534
6535 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6536 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6537 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6538 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6539 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6540 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6541
6542 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6543 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6544 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6545 BN_generate_prime().)
6546
6547 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6548 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6549 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6550 better.
6551 [Bodo Moeller]
6552
6553 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6554 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6555 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6556
6557 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6558 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6559 when using non-blocking I/O.
6560 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6561
6562 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6563 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6564
6565 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6566 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6567 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6568
6569 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6570 configuration for the versions before that.
6571 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6572
6573 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6574 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6575 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6576 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6577 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6578
6579 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6580 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6581 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6582 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6583
6584 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6585 value is 0.
6586 [Richard Levitte]
6587
6588 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6589 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6590 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6591
6592 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6593 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6594
6595 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6596 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6597 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6598 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6599 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6600 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6601 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6602 session cache.
6603
6604 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6605 using a local variable.
6606 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6607
6608 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6609 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6610 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6611
6612 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6613 [Richard Levitte]
6614
6615 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6616 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6617
6618 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6619 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6620 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6621
6622 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6623
6624 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6625 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6626 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6627 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6628 [Bodo Moeller]
6629
6630 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6631 present.
6632 [Steve Henson]
6633
6634 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6635 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6636 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6637 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6638 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6639
6640 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6641 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6642 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6643
6644 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6645 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6646 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6647
6648 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6649 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6650 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6651 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6652
6653 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6654 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6655 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6656 modules).
6657 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6658
6659 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6660 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6661 from 0.9.7.
6662 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6663
6664 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6665 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6666 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6667 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6668
6669 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6670 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6671 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6672 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6673
6674 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6675 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6676
6677 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6678 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6679 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6680 [Bodo Moeller]
6681
6682 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6683 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6684 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6685 become invalid.
6686 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6687
6688 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6689 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6690 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6691 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6692 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6693 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6694 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6695 [Bodo Moeller]
6696
6697 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6698 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6699 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6700 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6701
6702 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6703 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6704 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6705 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6706 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6707 the client will at least see that alert.
6708 [Bodo Moeller]
6709
6710 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6711 correctly.
6712 [Bodo Moeller]
6713
6714 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6715 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6716 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6717
6718 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6719 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6720 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6721 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6722 HelloRequest.
6723
6724 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6725 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6726 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6727
6728 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6729 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6730 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6731 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6732 may leak via logfiles.)
6733
6734 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6735 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6736 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6737 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6738 the legal range.
6739 [Bodo Moeller]
6740
6741 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6742 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6743 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6744
6745 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6746 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6747 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6748 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6749 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6750 [Bodo Moeller]
6751
6752 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6753 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6754
6755 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6756 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6757 followed by modular reduction.
6758 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6759
6760 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6761 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6762 [Bodo Moeller]
6763
6764 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6765 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6766 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6767 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6768 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6769
6770 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6771 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6772
6773 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6774 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6775 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6776
6777 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6778 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6779 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6780 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6781 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6782 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6783 automatically.
6784 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6785
6786 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6787 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6788 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6789 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6790 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6791
6792 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6793 [Andy Polyakov]
6794
6795 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6796 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6797 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6798 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6799 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6800 to allow the necessary settings.
6801 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6802
6803 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6804 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6805 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6806 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6807 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6808
6809 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6810 dh->length and always used
6811
6812 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6813
6814 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6815 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6816 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6817 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6818 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6819 dh->length.
6820
6821 So switch back to
6822
6823 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6824
6825 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6826 otherwise.
6827 [Bodo Moeller]
6828
6829 *) In
6830
6831 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6832 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6833 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6834 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6835
6836 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6837 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6838 always reject numbers >= n.
6839 [Bodo Moeller]
6840
6841 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6842 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6843 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6844 variable) is not atomic.
6845 [Bodo Moeller]
6846
6847 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6848 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6849 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6850 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6851
6852 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6853 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6854
6855 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6856 little-endian MIPS.
6857 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6858
6859 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6860 [Richard Levitte]
6861
6862 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6863
6864 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6865 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6866 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6867 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6868 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6869 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6870 to traverse all of 'state'.
6871
6872 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6873 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6874 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6875
6876 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6877 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6878
6879 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6880 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6881 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6882 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6883 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6884 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6885 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6886 further strengthens the PRNG.
6887 [Bodo Moeller]
6888
6889 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6890 [Andy Polyakov]
6891
6892 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6893 an error message in this case.
6894 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6895
6896 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6897 [Steve Henson]
6898
6899 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6900 positive and less than q.
6901 [Bodo Moeller]
6902
6903 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6904 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6905 that itself.
6906 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6907
6908 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6909 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6910 [Bodo Moeller]
6911
6912 *) Fix OAEP check.
6913 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6914
6915 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6916 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6917 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6918 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6919 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6920 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6921 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6922 paper.)
6923
6924 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6925 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6926 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6927 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6928
6929 Both problems are now fixed.
6930 [Bodo Moeller]
6931
6932 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6933 (previously it was 1024).
6934 [Bodo Moeller]
6935
6936 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6937 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6938 [Steve Henson]
6939
6940 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6941 [Steve Henson]
6942
6943 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6944 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6945 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6946 [Steve Henson]
6947
6948 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6949 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6950 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6951 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6952 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6953 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6954 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6955 environment variables.
6956
6957 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6958 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6959 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6960 [Bodo Moeller]
6961
6962 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6963 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6964 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6965 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6966 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6967 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6968 [Bodo Moeller]
6969
6970 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6971 versions of 'test'.
6972 [Bodo Moeller]
6973
6974 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6975
6976 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6977 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6978
6979 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6980 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6981 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6982 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6983 CygWin.
6984 [Richard Levitte]
6985
6986 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6987 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6988 amount of data available.
6989 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6990 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6991
6992 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6993 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6994 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6995 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6996 [Bodo Moeller]
6997
6998 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6999 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7000 and UnixWare.
7001 [Richard Levitte]
7002
7003 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7004 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7005 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7006 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
7007 [Ulf Moeller]
7008
7009 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7010 [Andy Polyakov]
7011
7012 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7013 [Richard Levitte]
7014
7015 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7016 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7017 [Steve Henson]
7018 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7019
7020 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7021 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7022 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7023 (but broken) behaviour.
7024 [Steve Henson]
7025
7026 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7027 it when found.
7028 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7029
7030 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7031 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7032 [Bodo Moeller]
7033
7034 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7035 did not exist.
7036 [Bodo Moeller]
7037
7038 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7039 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7040
7041 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7042 [Richard Levitte]
7043
7044 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7045 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7046 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7047
7048 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7049 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7050 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7051 [Steve Henson]
7052
7053 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7054 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7055 [Ulf Moeller]
7056
7057 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7058 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7059
7060 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7061
7062 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7063
7064 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7065 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7066 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7067 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7068 [Bodo Moeller]
7069
7070 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7071 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7072
7073 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7074 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7075 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7076
7077 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7078 was empty.
7079 [Steve Henson]
7080 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7081
7082 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7083 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7084 but the code is actually correct.
7085 [Steve Henson]
7086
7087 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7088 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7089 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7090 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7091 and leaves the highest bit random.
7092 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7093
7094 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7095 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7096 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7097 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7098 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7099 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7100 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7101 [Bodo Moeller]
7102
7103 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7104 [Ulf Moeller]
7105
7106 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7107 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7108 [Steve Henson]
7109
7110 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7111 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7112 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7113 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7114 headers.
7115 [Richard Levitte]
7116
7117 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7118 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7119 and break the signature.
7120 [Steve Henson]
7121 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7122
7123 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7124 DH ciphersuites.
7125 [Steve Henson]
7126
7127 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7128 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7129 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7130 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7131 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7132 [Bodo Moeller]
7133
7134 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7135 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7136
7137 *) ./config script fixes.
7138 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7139
7140 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7141 [Bodo Moeller]
7142
7143 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7144 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7145 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7146 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7147 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7148
7149 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7150 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7151 [Bodo Moeller]
7152
7153 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7154 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7155 [Steve Henson]
7156
7157 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7158 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7159 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7160 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7161
7162 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7163 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7164
7165 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7166 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7167 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7168 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7169 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7170
7171 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7172 [Bodo Moeller]
7173
7174 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7175 [Ulf Möller]
7176
7177 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7178 [Ulf Möller]
7179
7180 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7181 [Bodo Moeller]
7182
7183 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7184 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7185 [Bodo Moeller]
7186
7187 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7188 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7189 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7190 result of the server certificate verification.)
7191 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7192
7193 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7194 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7195 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7196 [Bodo Moeller]
7197
7198 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7199 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7200 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7201 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7202 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7203 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7204 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7205 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7206 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7207 [Bodo Moeller]
7208
7209 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7210 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7211 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7212 happening the other way round.
7213 [Geoff Thorpe]
7214
7215 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7216 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7217 [Bodo Moeller]
7218
7219 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7220 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7221 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7222 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7223 [Richard Levitte]
7224
7225 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7226 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7227
7228 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7229
7230 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7231 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7232 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7233 that.
7234
7235 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7236
7237 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7238
7239 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7240 static ones.
7241 [Richard Levitte]
7242
7243 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7244
7245 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7246 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7247 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7248 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7249 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7250
7251 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7252 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7253 matter what.
7254 [Richard Levitte]
7255
7256 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7257 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7258
7259 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7260
7261 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7262 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7263 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7264 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7265 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7266 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7267 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7268 by the Finished messages.
7269 [Bodo Moeller]
7270
7271 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7272 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7273
7274 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7275 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7276 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7277 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7278 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7279 appropriately.
7280 [Steve Henson]
7281
7282 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7283 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7284 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7285 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7286 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7287 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7288 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7289 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7290 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7291 together.
7292 [Steve Henson]
7293
7294 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7295 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7296 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7297 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7298
7299 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7300 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7301 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7302 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7303 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7304 the answer.
7305
7306 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7307 been tested well enough.
7308 [Richard Levitte]
7309
7310 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7311 it can return incorrect results.
7312 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7313 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7314 [Bodo Moeller]
7315
7316 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7317 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7318 include zero length content when signing messages.
7319 [Steve Henson]
7320
7321 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7322 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7323 [Bodo Möller]
7324
7325 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7326 [Richard Levitte]
7327
7328 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7329 wrong sign.
7330 [Ulf Möller]
7331
7332 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7333 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7334 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7335 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7336 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7337 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7338 [Richard Levitte]
7339
7340 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7341 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7342
7343 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7344 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7345
7346 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7347 random number < q in the DSA library.
7348 [Ulf Möller]
7349
7350 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7351 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7352 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7353 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7354 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7355 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7356 just makes things more complicated.)
7357 [Bodo Moeller]
7358
7359 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7360 from EGD.
7361 [Ben Laurie]
7362
7363 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7364 work better on such systems.
7365 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7366
7367 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7368 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7369 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7370 [Steve Henson]
7371
7372 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7373 if there was more than one signature.
7374 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7375
7376 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7377 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7378 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7379 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7380 [Richard Levitte]
7381
7382 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7383 rather than always using the current time.
7384 [Steve Henson]
7385
7386 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7387 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7388 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7389 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7390 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7391 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7392
7393 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7394 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7395
7396 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7397
7398 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7399 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7400 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7401 the same hash value.
7402
7403 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7404 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7405 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7406 with X509_STORE internally.
7407
7408 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7409 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7410
7411 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7412 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7413 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7414 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7415 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7416 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7417 entirely (maybe later...).
7418
7419 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7420
7421 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7422 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7423 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7424 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7425 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7426 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7427 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7428 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7429
7430 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7431 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7432
7433 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7434 to customise the verify behaviour.
7435 [Steve Henson]
7436
7437 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7438 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7439 [Steve Henson]
7440
7441 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7442 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7443 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7444 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7445 request is improperly encoded.
7446 [Steve Henson]
7447
7448 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7449 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7450 BIO_write(b, ...).
7451
7452 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7453 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7454
7455 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7456 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7457 words set to zero.)
7458 [Bodo Moeller]
7459
7460 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7461 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7462 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7463 [Bodo Moeller]
7464
7465 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7466 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7467 BIO/fp routines also added.
7468 [Steve Henson]
7469
7470 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7471 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7472
7473 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7474 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7475 demos/state_machine.
7476 [Ben Laurie]
7477
7478 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7479 generation and verification.
7480 [Steve Henson]
7481
7482 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7483 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7484 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7485 encode and decode it manually.
7486 [Steve Henson]
7487
7488 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7489 compile under VC++.
7490 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7491
7492 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7493 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7494 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7495 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7496
7497 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7498 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7499 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7500 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7501 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7502 [Steve Henson]
7503
7504 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7505 [Richard Levitte]
7506
7507 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7508 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7509 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7510
7511 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7512 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7513 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7514 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7515 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7516 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7517 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7518 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7519
7520 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7521 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7522
7523 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7524
7525 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7526 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7527 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7528
7529 [Richard Levitte]
7530
7531 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7532 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7533 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7534 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7535 [Richard Levitte]
7536
7537 *) MD4 implemented.
7538 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7539
7540 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7541 [Richard Levitte]
7542
7543 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7544 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7545 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7546 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7547 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7548 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7549 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7550 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7551 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7552 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7553 short or long names are found.
7554 [Steve Henson]
7555
7556 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7557 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7558
7559 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7560 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7561 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7562 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7563
7564 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7565 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7566 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7567 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7568 [Bodo Moeller]
7569
7570 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7571 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7572 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7573 [Richard Levitte]
7574
7575 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7576 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7577 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7578 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7579 to allow the various flags to be set.
7580 [Steve Henson]
7581
7582 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7583 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7584 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7585 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7586 dates to be checked.
7587 [Steve Henson]
7588
7589 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7590 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7591 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7592 [Steve Henson]
7593
7594 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7595 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7596 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7597 [Steve Henson]
7598
7599 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7600 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7601 [Bodo Moeller]
7602
7603 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7604 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7605 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7606 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7607 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7608 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7609 [Richard Levitte]
7610
7611 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7612 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7613 Random Numbers.
7614 [Ulf Möller]
7615
7616 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7617 DSA key.
7618 [Steve Henson]
7619
7620 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7621 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7622 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7623 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7624 form signing output easier to verify.
7625 [Steve Henson]
7626
7627 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7628 [Steve Henson]
7629
7630 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7631 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7632 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7633 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7634 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7635 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7636 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7637 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7638 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7639 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7640 [Steve Henson]
7641
7642 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7643
7644 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7645 the syntax given in objects.README.
7646 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7647 obj_mac.h.
7648 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7649 obj_mac.h.
7650
7651 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7652 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7653 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7654 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7655 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7656 consistent name changes.
7657 [Richard Levitte]
7658
7659 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7660 [Bodo Moeller]
7661
7662 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7663 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7664 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7665 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7666 [Richard Levitte]
7667
7668 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7669 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7670 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7671 of safestack.h .
7672 [Steve Henson]
7673
7674 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7675 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7676 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7677 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7678 [Steve Henson]
7679
7680 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7681 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7682 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7683 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7684 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7685 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7686 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7687 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7688 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7689 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7690 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7691 [Steve Henson]
7692
7693 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7694 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7695 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7696 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7697 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7698 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7699 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7700 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7701 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7702 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7703 [Steve Henson]
7704
7705 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7706 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7707 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7708 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7709
7710 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7711 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7712 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7713 omit any duplicate addresses.
7714 [Steve Henson]
7715
7716 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7717 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7718 [Bodo Moeller]
7719
7720 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7721 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7722 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7723 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7724 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7725 [Bodo Moeller]
7726
7727 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7728 software:
7729 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7730 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7731 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7732 Free => OPENSSL_free
7733 [Richard Levitte]
7734
7735 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7736 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7737 [Bodo Moeller]
7738
7739 *) CygWin32 support.
7740 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7741
7742 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7743 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7744 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7745 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7746 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7747 approach.
7748 [Geoff Thorpe]
7749
7750 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7751 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7752 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7753 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7754 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7755 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7756 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7757 [Geoff Thorpe]
7758
7759 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7760 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7761 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7762 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7763 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7764 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7765 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7766 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7767 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7768 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7769 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7770 [Bodo Moeller]
7771
7772 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7773 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7774 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7775 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7776 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7777
7778 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7779 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7780 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7781 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7782 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7783
7784 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7785 ciphers.
7786
7787 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7788 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7789 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7790 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7791
7792 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7793
7794 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7795 of macros.
7796
7797 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7798 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7799 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7800 flags.
7801
7802 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7803 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7804 any installed hardware versions can.
7805 [Steve Henson]
7806
7807 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7808 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7809 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7810 number.
7811 [Bodo Moeller]
7812
7813 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7814 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7815 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7816 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7817 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7818
7819 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7820 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7821 [Steve Henson]
7822
7823 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7824 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7825 [Richard Levitte]
7826
7827 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7828 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7829 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7830 features.
7831 [Steve Henson]
7832
7833 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7834 [Ulf Möller]
7835
7836 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7837 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7838 but no ssl client purpose.
7839 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7840
7841 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7842 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7843 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7844 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7845 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7846 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7847 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7848 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7849 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7850 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7851 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7852 [Steve Henson]
7853
7854 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7855 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7856 be obtained from the error queue.
7857 [Bodo Moeller]
7858
7859 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7860 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7861 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7862 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7863 [Bodo Moeller]
7864
7865 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7866 [Ulf Möller]
7867
7868 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7869 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7870 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7871 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7872 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7873 [Geoff Thorpe]
7874
7875 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7876 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7877 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7878 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7879 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7880 [Geoff Thorpe]
7881
7882 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7883 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7884 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7885 may not be NULL.
7886 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7887
7888 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7889 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7890 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7891 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7892 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7893 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7894 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7895 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7896 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7897 or "the configuration storage API"...
7898
7899 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7900
7901 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7902 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7903
7904 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7905
7906 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7907
7908 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7909 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7910 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7911 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7912 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7913 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7914 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7915
7916 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7917 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7918 [Richard Levitte]
7919
7920 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7921 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7922 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7923 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7924 [Bodo Moeller]
7925
7926 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7927 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7928 them in a portable way.
7929 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7930
7931 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7932
7933 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7934
7935 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7936 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7937
7938 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7939 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7940 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7941 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7942
7943 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7944 was larger than the MD block size.
7945 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7946
7947 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7948 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7949 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7950 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7951 components.
7952 [Steve Henson]
7953
7954 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7955 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7956 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7957
7958 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7959 discouraged.
7960 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7961
7962 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7963 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7964 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7965 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7966 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7967 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7968
7969 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7970 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7971
7972 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7973 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7974 [Bodo Moeller]
7975
7976 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7977 [Bodo Moeller]
7978
7979 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7980 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7981 its own key.
7982 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7983 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7984 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7985 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7986 [Bodo Moeller]
7987
7988 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7989 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7990 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7991 does not suppress any output.
7992 [Richard Levitte]
7993
7994 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7995 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7996 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7997 with all the associated security issues.
7998
7999 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8000 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8001 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8002 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8003 use the value in the default purpose.
8004 [Steve Henson]
8005
8006 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8007 and fix a memory leak.
8008 [Steve Henson]
8009
8010 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8011 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8012 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8013 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8014 [Bodo Moeller]
8015
8016 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8017 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8018 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8019 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8020 [Bodo Moeller]
8021
8022 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8023 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8024 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8025 [Bodo Moeller]
8026
8027 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8028 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8029 [Bodo Moeller]
8030
8031 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8032 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8033 which was free.
8034 [Steve Henson]
8035
8036 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8037 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8038 [Bodo Moeller]
8039
8040 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8041 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8042 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8043 [Bodo Moeller]
8044
8045 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8046 number generation fails.
8047 [Bodo Moeller]
8048
8049 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8050 [Bodo Moeller]
8051
8052 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8053 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8054
8055 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8056 [Ulf Möller]
8057
8058 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8059 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8060
8061 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8062 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8063
8064 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8065
8066 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8067 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8068 [Steve Henson]
8069
8070 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8071 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8072
8073 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8074 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8075 [Ulf Möller]
8076
8077 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8078 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8079 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8080 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8081 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8082 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8083
8084 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8085 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8086 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8087 for example.
8088 [Steve Henson]
8089
8090 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8091 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8092 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8093 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8094 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8095 counter, some don't.)
8096 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8097 counters or duplicate objects.
8098 [Steve Henson]
8099
8100 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8101 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8102 [Steve Henson]
8103
8104 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8105 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8106 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8107
8108 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8109 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8110 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8111 or -rand.
8112 [Ulf Möller]
8113
8114 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8115 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8116 [Steve Henson]
8117
8118 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8119 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8120 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8121 cipher list.
8122 [Steve Henson]
8123
8124 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8125 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8126 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8127 [Steve Henson]
8128
8129 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8130 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8131 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8132 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8133 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8134 should work without changes.
8135 [Richard Levitte]
8136
8137 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8138 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8139 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8140 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8141 must be defined. E.g.,
8142 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8143 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8144 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8145 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8146
8147 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8148 record layer.
8149 [Bodo Moeller]
8150
8151 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8152 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8153 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8154 [Steve Henson]
8155
8156 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8157 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8158 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8159 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8160 [Steve Henson]
8161
8162 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8163 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8164 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8165 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8166 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8167 is prompted for as usual.
8168 [Steve Henson]
8169
8170 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8171 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8172 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8173 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8174
8175 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8176 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8177 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8178 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8179 [Steve Henson]
8180
8181 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8182 [Andy Polyakov]
8183
8184 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8185 of seed file.
8186 [Steve Henson]
8187
8188 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8189 [Bodo Moeller]
8190
8191 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8192 [Steve Henson]
8193
8194 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8195 bits.
8196 [Ulf Möller]
8197
8198 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8199 [Ulf Möller]
8200
8201 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8202 [Andy Polyakov]
8203
8204 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8205 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8206 [Ulf Möller]
8207
8208 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8209 options to produce them.
8210 [Steve Henson]
8211
8212 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8213 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8214 [Ulf Möller]
8215
8216 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8217 for p == 0.
8218 [Ulf Möller]
8219
8220 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8221 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8222 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8223 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8224 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8225 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8226 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8227 [Steve Henson]
8228
8229 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8230 [Steve Henson]
8231
8232 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8233 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8234 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8235 [Bodo Moeller]
8236
8237 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8238 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8239
8240 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8241 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8242 [Ulf Möller]
8243
8244 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8245 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8246 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8247 has already seen).
8248 [Bodo Moeller]
8249
8250 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8251 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8252
8253 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8254 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8255 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8256 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8257 generation becomes much faster.
8258
8259 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8260 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8261 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8262 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8263 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8264 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8265 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8266 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8267 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8268 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8269 [Bodo Moeller]
8270
8271 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8272 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8273 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8274 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8275 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8276 trial division stage.
8277 [Bodo Moeller]
8278
8279 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8280 as ASN1_TIME.
8281 [Steve Henson]
8282
8283 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8284 [Steve Henson]
8285
8286 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8287 [Ulf Möller]
8288
8289 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8290 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8291 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8292 the comments.
8293 [Ulf Möller]
8294
8295 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8296 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8297 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8298 [Bodo Moeller]
8299
8300 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8301 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8302 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8303 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8304
8305 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8306 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8307 [Steve Henson]
8308
8309 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8310 [Ulf Möller]
8311
8312 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8313 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8314 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8315 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8316 [Ulf Möller]
8317
8318 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8319 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8320 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8321 [Ulf Möller]
8322
8323 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8324 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8325 (instead of parameters) in future.
8326 [Steve Henson]
8327
8328 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8329 when a new cipher list is set.
8330 [Steve Henson]
8331
8332 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8333 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8334 wrong.
8335
8336 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8337 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8338 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8339
8340 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8341 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8342 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8343 an error is flagged.
8344
8345 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8346 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8347 the readability was also increased :-)
8348 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8349
8350 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8351 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8352 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8353 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8354 as the root CA.
8355 [Steve Henson]
8356
8357 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8358 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8359 [Steve Henson]
8360
8361 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8362 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8363 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8364 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8365 instead.
8366
8367 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8368 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8369 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8370 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8371 because they handle more complex structures.)
8372 [Steve Henson]
8373
8374 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8375 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8376 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8377 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8378
8379 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8380 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8381 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8382 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8383 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8384 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8385 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8386 [Ulf Möller]
8387
8388 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8389 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8390 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8391 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8392 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8393 [Bodo Moeller]
8394
8395 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8396 [Bodo Moeller]
8397
8398 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8399 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8400 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8401 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8402 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8403 to use this.
8404
8405 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8406 code.
8407 [Steve Henson]
8408
8409 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8410 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8411 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8412 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8413 [Steve Henson]
8414
8415 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8416 [Ulf Möller]
8417
8418 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8419 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8420 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8421 international characters are used.
8422
8423 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8424 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8425 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8426 in ASN1 order.
8427 [Steve Henson]
8428
8429 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8430 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8431 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8432 request.
8433
8434 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8435 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8436 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8437 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8438 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8439 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8440
8441 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8442 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8443 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8444 be handled by the string table functions.
8445
8446 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8447 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8448 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8449 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8450 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8451 types at all.
8452 [Steve Henson]
8453
8454 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8455 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8456 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8457 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8458 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8459
8460 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8461 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8462 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8463 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8464 [Bodo Moeller]
8465
8466 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8467 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8468 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8469 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8470 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8471 SHA1.
8472 [Andy Polyakov]
8473
8474 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8475 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8476 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8477 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8478 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8479 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8480 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8481 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8482
8483 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8484 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8485 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8486 [Steve Henson]
8487
8488 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8489 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8490 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8491 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8492 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8493 support to pkcs8 application.
8494 [Steve Henson]
8495
8496 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8497 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8498 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8499 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8500 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8501 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8502 [Bodo Moeller]
8503
8504 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8505 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8506 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8507 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8508 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8509 consistency.
8510 [Bodo Moeller]
8511
8512 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8513 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8514 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8515 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8516 example.
8517 [Steve Henson]
8518
8519 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8520 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8521 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8522 and any application specific purposes.
8523
8524 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8525 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8526 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8527 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8528 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8529 if the certificate is self signed.
8530 [Steve Henson]
8531
8532 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8533 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8534 [Steve Henson]
8535
8536 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8537 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8538 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8539 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8540 [Steve Henson]
8541
8542 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8543 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8544 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8545 Update documentation.
8546 [Steve Henson]
8547
8548 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8549 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8550 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8551 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8552 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8553 [Steve Henson]
8554
8555 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8556 for details.
8557 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8558
8559 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8560 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8561 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8562 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8563 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8564 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8565 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8566 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8567 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8568 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8569
8570 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8571
8572 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8573 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8574 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8575 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8576 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8577
8578 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8579 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8580 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8581 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8582 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8583 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8584 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8585 request additional information:
8586 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8587 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8588
8589 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8590 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8591 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8592 options.
8593
8594 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8595 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8596
8597 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8598 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8599 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8600
8601 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8602 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8603
8604 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8605 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8606 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8607 algorithm.
8608 [Steve Henson]
8609
8610 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8611 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8612 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8613
8614 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8615 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8616 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8617 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8618 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8619 included in OpenSSL.
8620 [Steve Henson]
8621
8622 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8623 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8624 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8625 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8626 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8627 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8628 [Bodo Moeller]
8629
8630 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8631 PKCS12 structure.
8632 [Steve Henson]
8633
8634 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8635 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8636 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8637 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8638 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8639 structure.
8640 [Steve Henson]
8641
8642 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8643 need initialising.
8644 [Steve Henson]
8645
8646 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8647 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8648 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8649 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8650 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8651 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8652 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8653 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8654 be maintained manually.
8655
8656 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8657 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8658 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8659 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8660 work because people forget to call this function]
8661 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8662 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8663 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8664 [Steve Henson]
8665
8666 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8667 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8668 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8669 should be discouraged from doing it.
8670 [Ben Laurie]
8671
8672 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8673 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8674 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8675 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8676 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8677 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8678 [Steve Henson]
8679
8680 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8681 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8682 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8683
8684 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8685 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8686 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8687
8688 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8689 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8690 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8691 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8692 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8693 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8694
8695 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8696 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8697 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8698
8699 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8700 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8701 and vice versa.
8702
8703 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8704 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8705 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8706 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8707 [Steve Henson]
8708
8709 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8710 [Steve Henson]
8711
8712 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8713 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8714 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8715 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8716 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8717 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8718 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8719 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8720 keys so we should be OK.
8721
8722 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8723 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8724 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8725 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8726 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8727 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8728 stay in the name of compatibility.
8729
8730 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8731 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8732 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8733
8734 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8735 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8736 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8737 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8738 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8739 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8740 supplied key).
8741 [Steve Henson]
8742
8743 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8744 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8745 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8746 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8747 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8748 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8749 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8750 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8751 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8752 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8753 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8754 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8755 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8756 [Steve Henson]
8757
8758 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8759 [Steve Henson]
8760
8761 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8762 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8763 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8764 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8765 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8766 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8767 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8768 openssl verify ss.pem
8769 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8770 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8771 is OK.
8772 [Steve Henson]
8773
8774 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8775 (and add it to external session representation).
8776 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8777 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8778 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8779 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8780 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8781 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8782 security holes.
8783 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8784
8785 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8786 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8787 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8788 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8789
8790 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8791 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8792 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8793 [Steve Henson]
8794
8795 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8796 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8797 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8798 code.
8799 [Steve Henson]
8800
8801 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8802 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8803 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8804
8805 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8806 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8807 certificate auxiliary information.
8808 [Steve Henson]
8809
8810 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8811 the 'enc' command.
8812 [Steve Henson]
8813
8814 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8815 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8816 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8817 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8818 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8819 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8820 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8821 [Richard Levitte]
8822
8823 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8824 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8825 [Steve Henson]
8826
8827 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8828 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8829 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8830 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8831 [Steve Henson]
8832
8833 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8834 [Steve Henson]
8835
8836 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8837 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8838 [Steve Henson]
8839
8840 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8841 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8842 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8843 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8844 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8845 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8846 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8847 using the new 'x509' options.
8848
8849 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8850 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8851 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8852 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8853 for all purposes.
8854 [Steve Henson]
8855
8856 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8857 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8858 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8859 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8860 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8861 [Mark Cox]
8862
8863 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8864 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8865 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8866 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8867 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8868 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8869 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8870 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8871 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8872 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8873 [Steve Henson]
8874
8875 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8876 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8877 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8878 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8879 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8880 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8881 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8882 [Steve Henson]
8883
8884 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8885 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8886 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8887 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8888 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8889 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8890 openssl.cnf for more info.
8891 [Steve Henson]
8892
8893 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8894 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8895 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8896 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8897 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8898 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8899 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8900 md should be large enough anyway.
8901 [Bodo Moeller]
8902
8903 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8904 for handling the random seed file.
8905
8906 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8907 ca,
8908 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8909 s_client,
8910 s_server,
8911 x509 (when signing).
8912 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8913 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8914 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8915
8916 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8917 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8918 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8919 that support '-rand'.
8920 [Bodo Moeller]
8921
8922 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8923 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8924 [Bodo Moeller]
8925
8926 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8927 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8928 [Bill Perry]
8929
8930 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8931 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8932 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8933 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8934 is suitable.
8935 [Steve Henson]
8936
8937 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8938 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8939 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8940 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8941 [Steve Henson]
8942
8943 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8944 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8945 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8946 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8947 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8948 print out all the purposes.
8949 [Steve Henson]
8950
8951 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8952 functions.
8953 [Steve Henson]
8954
8955 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8956 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8957 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8958 single function call.
8959 [Steve Henson]
8960
8961 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8962 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8963 [Andy Polyakov]
8964
8965 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8966 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8967 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8968 [Steve Henson]
8969
8970 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8971 when producing the local key id.
8972 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8973
8974 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8975 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8976 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8977 "server.pem".
8978 [Steve Henson]
8979
8980 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8981 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8982 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8983 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8984 [Steve Henson]
8985
8986 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8987 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8988 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8989 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8990
8991 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8992 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8993 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8994 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8995
8996 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8997 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8998 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8999 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9000 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9001 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9002 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9003 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9004 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9005 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9006 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9007 trivial: move one line.
9008 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9009
9010 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9011 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9012 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9013 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9014 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9015 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9016 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9017 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9018 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9019 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9020 with an event loop for example.
9021 [Steve Henson]
9022
9023 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9024 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9025 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9026 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9027 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9028 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9029 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9030 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9031 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9032 [Steve Henson]
9033
9034 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9035 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9036 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9037 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9038 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9039 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9040 [Steve Henson]
9041
9042 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9043 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9044 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9045 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9046
9047 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9048 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9049 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9050 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9051 key generation.
9052 [Steve Henson]
9053
9054 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9055 (still largely untested)
9056 [Bodo Moeller]
9057
9058 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9059 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9060 [Steve Henson]
9061
9062 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9063 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9064 [Steve Henson]
9065
9066 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9067 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9068 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9069 [Bodo Moeller]
9070
9071 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9072 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9073 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9074 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9075 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9076 [Steve Henson]
9077
9078 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9079 [Andy Polyakov]
9080
9081 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9082 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9083 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9084 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9085 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9086 in ca.
9087 [Steve Henson]
9088
9089 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9090 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9091 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9092 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9093 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9094 [Steve Henson]
9095
9096 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9097 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9098 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9099 are otherwise ignored at present.
9100 [Steve Henson]
9101
9102 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9103 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9104 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9105 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9106 copied until the next read.
9107 [Steve Henson]
9108
9109 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9110 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9111 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9112 [Steve Henson]
9113
9114 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9115 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9116 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9117 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9118 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9119 associated functions.
9120 [Steve Henson]
9121
9122 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9123 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9124 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9125 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9126 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9127 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9128 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9129 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9130 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9131 memory BIOs.
9132 [Steve Henson]
9133
9134 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9135 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9136 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9137 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9138 [Bodo Moeller]
9139
9140 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9141 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9142 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9143 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9144 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9145 functionality.
9146 [Steve Henson]
9147
9148 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9149 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9150 under Win32.
9151 [Steve Henson]
9152
9153 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9154 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9155 extensions to be obtained and added.
9156 [Steve Henson]
9157
9158 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9159 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9160 [Bodo Moeller]
9161
9162 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9163
9164 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9165 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9166
9167 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9168 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9169
9170 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9171 program.
9172 [Steve Henson]
9173
9174 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9175 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9176 DH parameters contain its length).
9177
9178 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9179 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9180 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9181 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9182 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9183 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9184 utter importance to use
9185 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9186 or
9187 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9188 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9189 attacks may become possible!
9190 [Bodo Moeller]
9191
9192 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9193 [Bodo Moeller]
9194
9195 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9196 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9197 [Steve Henson]
9198
9199 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9200 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9201 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9202 or long name.
9203 [Steve Henson]
9204
9205 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9206 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9207 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9208 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9209 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9210 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9211 private key operations.
9212 [Steve Henson]
9213
9214 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9215 [Andy Polyakov]
9216
9217 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9218 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9219 to
9220 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9221 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9222 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9223 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9224 the password callback is called.
9225 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9226
9227 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9228
9229 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9230 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9231 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9232 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9233 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9234 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9235 this will work.
9236
9237 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9238 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9239 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9240 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9241 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9242 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9243 [Bodo Moeller]
9244
9245 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9246 [Andy Polyakov]
9247
9248 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9249 delete an unused file.
9250 [Ulf Möller]
9251
9252 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9253 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9254 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9255 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9256 [Steve Henson]
9257
9258 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9259 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9260 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9261 of an error.
9262 [Bodo Moeller]
9263
9264 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9265 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9266 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9267
9268 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9269 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9270 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9271 comparison" warnings.
9272 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9273 [Steve Henson]
9274
9275 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9276 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9277 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9278 [Steve Henson]
9279
9280 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9281 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9282
9283 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9284 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9285
9286 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9287 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9288 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9289
9290 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9291 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9292 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9293 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9294 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9295 this bug.
9296 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9297
9298 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9299 The interface is as follows:
9300 Applications can use
9301 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9302 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9303 "off" is now the default.
9304 The library internally uses
9305 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9306 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9307 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9308
9309 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9310 even the default) are now avoided.
9311
9312 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9313 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9314 than just having a counter.
9315
9316 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9317
9318 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9319 extensions.
9320 [Bodo Moeller]
9321
9322 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9323 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9324 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9325 Initial "mode" flags are:
9326
9327 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9328 a single record has been written.
9329 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9330 retries use the same buffer location.
9331 (But all of the contents must be
9332 copied!)
9333 [Bodo Moeller]
9334
9335 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9336 worked.
9337
9338 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9339 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9340
9341 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9342 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9343 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9344 [Steve Henson]
9345
9346 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9347 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9348 test programs.
9349 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9350
9351 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9352 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9353 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9354 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9355 point to the end.
9356 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9357 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9358
9359 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9360 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9361 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9362 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9363 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9364 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9365 [Steve Henson]
9366
9367 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9368 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9369 necessary function names.
9370 [Steve Henson]
9371
9372 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9373 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9374 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9375 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9376 [Bodo Moeller]
9377
9378 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9379 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9380 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9381 [Steve Henson]
9382
9383 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9384 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9385 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9386 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9387 such programs?)
9388 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9389 need locks.
9390 [Bodo Moeller]
9391
9392 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9393 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9394 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9395 [Bodo Moeller]
9396
9397 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9398 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9399 appropriate.
9400 [Bodo Moeller]
9401
9402 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9403 for the encoded length.
9404 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9405
9406 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9407 [Steve Henson]
9408
9409 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9410 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9411 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9412 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9413 [Steve Henson]
9414
9415 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9416 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9417 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9418
9419 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9420 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9421 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9422 unusual formatting.
9423 [Steve Henson]
9424
9425 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9426 to use the new extension code.
9427 [Steve Henson]
9428
9429 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9430 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9431 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9432 constant.
9433 [Steve Henson]
9434
9435 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9436 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9437 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9438 [Bodo Moeller]
9439
9440 #if 0
9441 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9442 [Ben Laurie]
9443 #else
9444 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9445 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9446 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9447 #endif
9448
9449 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9450 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9451 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9452 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9453 [Ben Laurie]
9454
9455 *) DES library cleanups.
9456 [Ulf Möller]
9457
9458 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9459 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9460 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9461 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9462 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9463 of v2.0.
9464 [Steve Henson]
9465
9466 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9467 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9468 [Bodo Moeller]
9469
9470 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9471 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9472 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9473 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9474 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9475 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9476 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9477 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9478 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9479 [Steve Henson]
9480
9481 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9482 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9483 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9484 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9485 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9486 value doesn't matter.
9487 [Steve Henson]
9488
9489 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9490 support mutable.
9491 [Ben Laurie]
9492
9493 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9494 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9495 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9496 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9497
9498 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9499 [Ulf Möller]
9500
9501 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9502 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9503 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9504
9505 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9506 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9507
9508 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9509 [Ben Laurie]
9510
9511 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9512 [Ben Laurie]
9513
9514 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9515 [Ben Laurie]
9516
9517 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9518 [Bodo Moeller]
9519
9520
9521 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9522
9523 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9524
9525 *) Updated some demos.
9526 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9527
9528 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9529 [Wu Zhigang]
9530
9531 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9532 [Steve Henson]
9533
9534 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9535 [Steve Henson]
9536
9537 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9538 instead of using a fixed path.
9539 [Bodo Moeller]
9540
9541 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9542 [Andy Polyakov]
9543
9544 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9545 [Richard Levitte]
9546
9547
9548 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9549
9550 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9551 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9552 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9553
9554 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9555 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9556 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9557 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9558 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9559 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9560 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9561 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9562 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9563 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9564 [Steve Henson]
9565
9566 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9567 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9568 [Steve Henson]
9569
9570 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9571 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9572 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9573 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9574 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9575
9576 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9577 [Bodo Moeller]
9578
9579 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9580 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9581 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9582 [Steve Henson]
9583
9584 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9585 [Ben Laurie]
9586
9587 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9588 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9589 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9590 key elements as negative integers.
9591 [Steve Henson]
9592
9593 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9594 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9595
9596 *) VMS support.
9597 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9598
9599 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9600 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9601 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9602 [Steve Henson]
9603
9604 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9605 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9606 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9607 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9608 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9609 [Bodo Moeller]
9610
9611 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9612 [Ulf Möller]
9613
9614 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9615 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9616 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9617 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9618
9619 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9620 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9621 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9622
9623 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9624 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9625 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9626 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9627 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9628 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9629 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9630 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9631 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9632
9633 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9634 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9635 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9636 does not influence s as it used to.
9637
9638 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9639 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9640 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9641 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9642 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9643 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9644 [Bodo Moeller]
9645
9646 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9647 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9648 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9649 key type.
9650 [Steve Henson]
9651
9652 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9653 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9654 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9655 and 'x509').
9656 [Steve Henson]
9657
9658 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9659 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9660 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9661 extension option.
9662 [Steve Henson]
9663
9664 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9665 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9666 [Ben Laurie]
9667
9668 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9669 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9670
9671 *) Support Mingw32.
9672 [Ulf Möller]
9673
9674 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9675 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9676
9677 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9678 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9679
9680 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9681 [Ulf Möller]
9682
9683 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9684 [Anonymous]
9685
9686 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9687 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9688
9689 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9690 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9691 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9692 DER-encoded.)
9693 [Bodo Moeller]
9694
9695 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9696 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9697 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9698 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9699 now it really counts the depth.
9700 [Bodo Moeller]
9701
9702 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9703 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9704 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9705 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9706 didn't match the private key).
9707
9708 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9709 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9710 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9711 [Bodo Moeller]
9712
9713 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9714 [Ulf Möller]
9715
9716 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9717 David Harris.
9718 [Bodo Moeller]
9719
9720 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9721 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9722 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9723 [Bodo Moeller]
9724
9725 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9726 [Bodo Moeller]
9727
9728 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9729 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9730 such as /usr/local/bin.
9731 [Bodo Moeller]
9732
9733 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9734 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9735
9736 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9737 [Ulf Möller]
9738
9739 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9740 extension adding in x509 utility.
9741 [Steve Henson]
9742
9743 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9744 [Ulf Möller]
9745
9746 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9747 prototypes.
9748 [Steve Henson]
9749
9750 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9751 [Ulf Möller]
9752
9753 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9754 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9755 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9756 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9757 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9758 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9759 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9760 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9761 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9762 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9763 [Steve Henson]
9764
9765 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9766 [Bodo Moeller]
9767
9768 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9769 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9770 [Bodo Moeller]
9771
9772 *) Fix some race conditions.
9773 [Bodo Moeller]
9774
9775 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9776 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9777 [Steve Henson]
9778
9779 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9780 [Ulf Möller]
9781
9782 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9783 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9784 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9785 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9786
9787 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9788 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9789
9790 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9791 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9792 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9793
9794 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9795 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9796
9797 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9798 [Ulf Möller]
9799
9800 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9801 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9802
9803 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9804 [Ulf Möller]
9805
9806 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9807 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9808
9809 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9810 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9811 [Steve Henson]
9812
9813 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9814 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9815 [Ben Laurie]
9816
9817 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9818 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9819 [Steve Henson]
9820
9821 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9822 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9823 [Steve Henson]
9824
9825 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9826 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9827 [Steve Henson]
9828
9829 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9830 support typesafe stack.
9831 [Steve Henson]
9832
9833 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9834 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9835
9836 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9837 old X509V3 handling code.
9838 [Steve Henson]
9839
9840 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9841 [Ulf Möller]
9842
9843 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9844 [Bodo Moeller]
9845
9846 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9847 [Ben Laurie]
9848
9849 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9850 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9851
9852 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9853 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9854 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9855 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9856 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9857 [Ben Laurie]
9858
9859 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9860 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9861 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9862 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9863 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9864
9865 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9866 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9867 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9868 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9869
9870 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9871 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9872 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9873 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9874
9875 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9876 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9877 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9878 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9879 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9880 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9881 [Bodo Moeller]
9882
9883 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9884 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9885 [Bodo Moeller]
9886
9887 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9888 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9889 [Ulf Möller]
9890
9891 *) Tweaks to Configure
9892 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9893
9894 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9895 yet...
9896 [Steve Henson]
9897
9898 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9899 [Ulf Möller]
9900
9901 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9902 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9903 [Ulf Möller]
9904
9905 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9906 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9907 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9908 [Bodo Moeller]
9909
9910 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9911 [Bodo Moeller]
9912
9913 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9914 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9915 [Steve Henson]
9916
9917 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9918 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9919 to library startup routines.
9920 [Steve Henson]
9921
9922 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9923 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9924 codes along the way.
9925 [Steve Henson]
9926
9927 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9928 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9929 objects to objects.h
9930 [Steve Henson]
9931
9932 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9933 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9934 [Steve Henson]
9935
9936 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9937 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9938
9939 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9940 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9941 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9942
9943 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9944 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9945 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9946
9947 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9948 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9949 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9950
9951
9952 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9953
9954 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9955 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9956 [Ben Laurie]
9957
9958 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9959 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9960 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9961 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9962 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9963
9964 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9965 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9966 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9967 document.
9968 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9969
9970 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9971 Malloc, Free.
9972 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9973
9974 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9975 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9976
9977 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9978 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9979 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9980 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9981
9982 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9983 [Ben Laurie]
9984
9985 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9986 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9987 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9988 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9989 [Steve Henson]
9990
9991 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9992 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9993 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9994 [Steve Henson]
9995
9996 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9997 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9998 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9999 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10000 installed as `perl').
10001 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10002
10003 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10004 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10005
10006 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10007 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
10008 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10009 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10010 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10011 [Steve Henson]
10012
10013 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10014 [Ben Laurie]
10015
10016 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10017 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10018 is horrible: I feel ill....
10019 [Steve Henson]
10020
10021 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10022 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10023 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10024 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10025 [Steve Henson]
10026
10027 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10028 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10029
10030 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10031 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10032 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10033 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10034
10035 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10036 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10037 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10038 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10039 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10040 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10041 openssl_bio.xs.
10042 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10043
10044 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10045 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10046
10047 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10048 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10049
10050 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10051 [Ben Laurie]
10052
10053 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10054 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10055 in CRLs.
10056 [Steve Henson]
10057
10058 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10059 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10060 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10061 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10062 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10063 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10064 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10065 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10066 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10067 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10068 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10069
10070 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10071 [Ben Laurie]
10072
10073 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10074 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10075 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10076 for linking it into DSOs.
10077 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10078
10079 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10080 Fixed.
10081 [Ben Laurie]
10082
10083 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10084 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10085 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10086 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10087 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10088 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10089
10090 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10091 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10092 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10093 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10094 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10095 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10096 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10097
10098 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10099 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10100 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10101 encryption.
10102 [Ben Laurie]
10103
10104 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10105 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10106 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10107 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10108 [Steve Henson]
10109
10110 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10111 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10112 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10113 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10114 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10115 field as blank.
10116 [Steve Henson]
10117
10118 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10119 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10120 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10121 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10122 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10123
10124 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10125 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10126 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10127
10128 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10129 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10130
10131 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10132 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10133 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10134 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10135 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10136 [Steve Henson]
10137
10138 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10139 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10140 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10141 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10142 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10143 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10144 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10145 [Ben Laurie]
10146
10147 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10148 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10149 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10150 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10151 [Ben Laurie]
10152
10153 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10154 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10155
10156 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10157 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10158 [Steve Henson]
10159
10160 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10161 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10162 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10163 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10164 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10165 (e.g. s_server).
10166 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10167 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10168 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10169 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10170 no way to reconfigure them.
10171 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10172 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10173 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10174 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10175 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10176 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10177
10178 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10179 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10180 recognized by the users.
10181 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10182
10183 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10184 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10185 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10186 already masked variable.
10187 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10188
10189 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10190 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10191
10192 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10193 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10194 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10195 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10196
10197 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10198 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10199 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10200
10201 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10202 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10203 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10204 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10205 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10206 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10207 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10208 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10209 now, too.
10210 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10211
10212 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10213 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10214 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10215
10216 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10217 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10218 config file.
10219 [Steve Henson]
10220
10221 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10222 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10223
10224 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10225 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10226 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10227 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10228 [Ben Laurie]
10229
10230 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10231 [Steve Henson]
10232
10233 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10234 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10235
10236 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10237 [Ben Laurie]
10238
10239 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10240 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10241 [Steve Henson]
10242
10243 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10244 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10245 [Steve Henson]
10246
10247 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10248 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10249 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10250 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10251 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10252 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10253 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10254 Ben Laurie]
10255
10256 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10257 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10258
10259 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10260 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10261 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10262 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10263 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10264
10265 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10266 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10267 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10268 [Steve Henson]
10269
10270 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10271 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10272 an example.
10273 [Steve Henson]
10274
10275 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10276 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10277 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10278
10279 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10280 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10281 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10282 build instructions.
10283 [Steve Henson]
10284
10285 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10286 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10287 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10288 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10289 [Steve Henson]
10290
10291 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10292 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10293 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10294 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10295 [Ben Laurie]
10296
10297 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10298 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10299 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10300 so it wasn't spotted.
10301 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10302
10303 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10304 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10305 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10306 vectors if you have them.
10307 [Ben Laurie]
10308
10309 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10310 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10311 [Ben Laurie]
10312
10313 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10314 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10315 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10316 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10317 If you do a:
10318 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10319 it will update them.
10320 [Steve Henson]
10321
10322 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10323 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10324 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10325 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10326 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10327 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10328 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10329 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10330
10331 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10332 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10333 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10334 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10335 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10336 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10337 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10338 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10339 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10340 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10341
10342 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10343 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10344 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10345 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10346 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10347 [Steve Henson]
10348
10349 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10350 INTEGER code.
10351 [Steve Henson]
10352
10353 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10354 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10355
10356 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10357 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10358
10359 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10360 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10361 [Ben Laurie]
10362
10363 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10364 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10365
10366 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10367 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10368
10369 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10370 [Steve Henson]
10371
10372 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10373 few typos.
10374 [Steve Henson]
10375
10376 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10377 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10378 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10379 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10380
10381 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10382 [Steve Henson]
10383
10384 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10385 [Steve Henson]
10386
10387 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10388 [Steve Henson]
10389
10390 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10391 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10392 [Steve Henson]
10393
10394 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10395 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10396 CA extensions.
10397 [Steve Henson]
10398
10399 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10400 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10401 [Steve Henson]
10402
10403 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10404 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10405 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10406 [Steve Henson]
10407
10408 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10409 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10410 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10411 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10412 properly to be processed.
10413 [Steve Henson]
10414
10415 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10416 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10417 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10418 [Ben Laurie]
10419
10420 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10421 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10422
10423 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10424 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10425 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10426 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10427 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10428 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10429 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10430 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10431 or delete all the .err files.
10432 [Steve Henson]
10433
10434 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10435 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10436 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10437 to regenerate it if needed.
10438 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10439 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10440
10441 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10442 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10443
10444 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10445 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10446 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10447 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10448 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10449 [Steve Henson]
10450
10451 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10452 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10453
10454 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10455 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10456
10457 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10458 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10459 error, but didn't set one).
10460 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10461
10462 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10463 [Ben Laurie]
10464
10465 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10466 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10467 [Steve Henson]
10468
10469 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10470 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10471
10472 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10473 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10474 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10475 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10476 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10477 OID is not part of the table.
10478 [Steve Henson]
10479
10480 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10481 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10482 [Ben Laurie]
10483
10484 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10485 [Ben Laurie]
10486
10487 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10488 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10489 was "1234").
10490 [Steve Henson]
10491
10492 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10493 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10494
10495 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10496 NULL pointers.
10497 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10498
10499 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10500 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10501
10502 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10503 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10504
10505 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10506 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10507
10508 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10509 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10510 [Ben Laurie]
10511
10512 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10513 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10514 [Steve Henson]
10515
10516 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10517 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10518
10519 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10520 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10521
10522 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10523 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10524
10525 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10526 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10527
10528 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10529 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10530 unused in the certificate verification process.
10531 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10532
10533 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10534 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10535 [Steve Henson]
10536
10537 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10538 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10539 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10540
10541 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10542 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10543 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10544 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10545 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10546
10547 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10548 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10549 [Steve Henson]
10550
10551 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10552 [Steve Henson]
10553
10554 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10555 [Paul Sutton]
10556
10557 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10558 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10559
10560 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10561 [Ben Laurie]
10562
10563 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10564 [Ben Laurie]
10565
10566 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10567 [Ben Laurie]
10568
10569 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10570 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10571 other error libraries.
10572 [Steve Henson]
10573
10574 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10575 [Steve Henson]
10576
10577 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10578 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10579 be read in.
10580 [Steve Henson]
10581
10582 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10583 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10584 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10585 the new set of documenation files.
10586 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10587
10588 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10589 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10590 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10591 number of arguments.
10592 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10593
10594 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10595 [Ben Laurie]
10596
10597 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10598 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10599 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10600
10601 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10602 [Ben Laurie]
10603
10604 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10605 nextstep
10606 ncr-scde
10607 unixware-2.0
10608 unixware-2.0-pentium
10609 sco5-cc.
10610 [Ben Laurie]
10611
10612 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10613 before they are needed.
10614 [Ben Laurie]
10615
10616 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10617 [Ben Laurie]
10618
10619
10620 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10621
10622 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10623 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10624 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10625
10626 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10627 [Paul Sutton]
10628
10629 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10630 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10631 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10632
10633 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10634 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10635 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10636
10637 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10638 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10639 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10640
10641 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10642 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10643
10644 *) Updated the README file.
10645 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10646
10647 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10648 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10649 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10650
10651 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10652 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10653 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10654
10655 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10656 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE

10668 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10669 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10670
10671 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10672 [Mark J. Cox]
10673
10674 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10675 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10676 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10677 summer 1998.

10691 [Eric A. Young]
10692
10693 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
10694 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
10695 available).
10696 [Eric A. Young]
10697

10755 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
10756 [Eric A. Young]
10757
10758 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
10759 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
10760 [Eric A. Young]
