5 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
8 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
9 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
10 [Steve Henson]
11
12 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
13 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
14 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
15 supported signature algorithms.
16 [Steve Henson]
17
18 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
19 [Steve Henson]
20
21 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
22 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
23 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
24 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
25 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
26 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
27 certificate and specify the whole chain.
28 [Steve Henson]
29
30 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
31 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
32 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
33 to have similar checks in it.
34
35 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
36 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
37 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
38 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
39 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
40 [Steve Henson]
41
42 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
43 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
44 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
45 shared signature algorithms.
46 [Steve Henson]
47
48 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
49 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
50 to support them.
51 [Steve Henson]
52
53 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
54 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
55 it couldn't be removed.
56 [Steve Henson]
57
58 *) Initial SSL tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
59 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
60 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
61 tracing.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
64 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
65 OID NID.
66 [Steve Henson]
67
68 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
69 certificates.
70 [Steve Henson]
71
72 *) RFC 5878 support.
73 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
74
75 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
76 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
77 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
78 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
79 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
80 [Steve Henson]
81
82 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
83 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
84 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
85 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
86 to set list of supported curves.
87 [Steve Henson]
88
89 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
90 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
91 to print out received values.
92 [Steve Henson]
93
94 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
95 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
96 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
97 [Steve Henson]
98
99 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
100 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
101 [Steve Henson]
102
103 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
104 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
105 [Steve Henson]
106
107 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
108 certificates.
109 [Steve Henson]
110
111 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
112 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
113 the new parameter format automatically.
114 [Steve Henson]
115
116 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
117 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
118 [Steve Henson]
119
120 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
121 [Steve Henson]
122
123 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
124 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
125 failures.
126 [Steve Henson]
127
128 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
129 sign or verify all in one operation.
130 [Steve Henson]
131
132 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
133 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
134 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
135 [Steve Henson]
136
137 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
138 [Steve Henson]
139
140 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
141 [Steve Henson]
142
143 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
144 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
145 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
146 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
147 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
148 [Steve Henson]
149
150 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
151 based on NID.
152 [Steve Henson]
153
154 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
155 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
156 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
157 [Steve Henson]
158
159 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
160 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
161 [Steve Henson]
162
163 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
164 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
165
166 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
167 POST to handle HMAC cases.
168 [Steve Henson]
169
170 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
171 to return numberical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
172 [Steve Henson]
173
174 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
175 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implmeneted
176 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
177 [Steve Henson]
178
179 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
180 there is no mutiple of the block length between min_len and
181 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
182 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
183 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
184 requested amount of entropy.
185 [Steve Henson]
186
187 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
188 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
189 [Steve Henson]
190
191 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
192 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
193 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
194 support.
195 [Steve Henson]
196
197 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
198 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
199 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
200 [Steve Henson]
201
202 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
203 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
204 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
205 will never use XTS mode.
206 [Steve Henson]
207
208 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
209 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
210 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
211 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
212 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
213 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
214 [Steve Henson]
215
216 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
217 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
218 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
219 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
220 [Steve Henson]
221
222 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
223 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
224 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
225 [Steve Henson]
226
227 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
228 [Steve Henson]
229
230 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
231 [Steve Henson]
232
233 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
234 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
235 [Steve Henson]
236
237 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
238 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
239 [Steve Henson]
240
241 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
242 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
243 [Steve Henson]
244
245 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
246 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
247 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
248 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
249 and rename any affected symbols.
250 [Steve Henson]
251
252 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
253 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
254 [Steve Henson]
255
256 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
257 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
258 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
261 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
262 [Steve Henson]
263
264 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
265 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
266 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
267 [Steve Henson]
268
269 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
270 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
271 [Steve Henson]
272
273 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
274 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
275 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
276 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
277 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
278 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
279 set before the key.
280 [Steve Henson]
281
282 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
283 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
284 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
285 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
286 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
287 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
288 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
289 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
290 [Steve Henson]
291
292 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
293 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
294 [Steve Henson]
295
296 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
297
298 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
299 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
300
301 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
302 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
303 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
304 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
305 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
306 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
307
308 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
309 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
310 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
311 security.
312 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
313
314 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_diff to find the difference in days
315 and seconds between two tm structures. This will be used to provide
316 additional functionality for ASN1_TIME.
317 [Steve Henson]
318
319 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
320 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
321 [Steve Henson]
322
323 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
324 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
325 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
326 setting is used: whether to trust or reject.
327 [Steve Henson]
328
329 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
330 parameters by name.
331 [Steve Henson]
332
333 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
334 Add CMAC pkey methods.
335 [Steve Henson]
336
337 *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
338 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
339 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
340 [Steve Henson]
341
342 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
343 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
344 multi-process servers.
345 [Steve Henson]
346
347 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
348 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
349 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
350 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
351 RAND_METHOD structure.
352 [Steve Henson]
353
354 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
355 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
356 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
357 whose return value is often ignored.
358 [Steve Henson]
359
360 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [xx XXX xxxx]
361
362 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
363 [Steve Henson]
364
365 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
366 if renegotiating.
367 [Steve Henson]
368
369 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
370
371 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
372 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to avoid DoS attack.
373
374 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
375 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
376 (CVE-2012-2333)
377 [Steve Henson]
378
379 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
380 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
381 [Steve Henson]
382
383 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
384 approved.
385 [Steve Henson]
386
387 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
388
389 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
390 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
391 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
392 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
393 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
394 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
395 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
396 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
397 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
398 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
399 [Steve Henson]
400
401 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
402 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
403 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
404 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
405 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
406 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
407 client side.
408 [Andy Polyakov]
409
410 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
411
412 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
413 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
414 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
415
416 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
417 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
418 (CVE-2012-2110)
419 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
420
421 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
422 [Adam Langley]
423
424 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
425 record length exceeds 255 bytes:
426
427 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
428 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
429 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
430 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
431 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
432 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
433 Most broken servers should now work.
434 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
435 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
436 [Steve Henson]
437
438 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
439 [Andy Polyakov]
440
441 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
442
443 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
444 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
445 [Steve Henson]
446
447 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
448 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
449 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
450 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
451 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
452 [Steve Henson]
453
454 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
455 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
456 [Steve Henson]
457
458 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
459 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
460 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
461 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
462 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
463 [Steve Henson]
464
465 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
466 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
467
468 *) Add support for SCTP.
469 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
470
471 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
472 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
473
474 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
475
476 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
477 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
478 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
479 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
480 - s390x: z196 support;
481 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
482
483 [Andy Polyakov]
484
485 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
486 (removal of unnecessary code)
487 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
488
489 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
490 [Eric Rescorla]
491
492 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
493 [Eric Rescorla]
494
495 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
496 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
497 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
498 by Google.
499 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
500
501 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
502 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
503 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
504 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
505 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
506
507 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
508 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
509 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
510
511 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
512 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
513 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
514
515 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
516 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
517 implementations).
518 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
519
520 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
521 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
522 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
523 [Steve Henson]
524
525 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
526 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
527 particular PSS.
528 [Steve Henson]
529
530 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
531 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
532 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
533 [Steve Henson]
534
535 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
536 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
537 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
538 the appropriate parameters.
539 [Steve Henson]
540
541 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
542 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
543 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
544 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
545 against a number of sample certificates.
546 [Steve Henson]
547
548 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
549 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
550
551 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
552 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
553
554 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
555 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
556 parameters r, s.
557 [Steve Henson]
558
559 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
560 RFC3211.
561 [Steve Henson]
562
563 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
564 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
565 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
566 password based CMS).
567 [Steve Henson]
568
569 *) Session-handling fixes:
570 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
571 but also support Session Tickets.
572 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
573 presented a ticket with an expired session.
574 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
575 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
576 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
577 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
578
579 *) Fix PSK session representation.
580 [Bodo Moeller]
581
582 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
583
584 This work was sponsored by Intel.
585 [Andy Polyakov]
586
587 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
588 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
589 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
590 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
591 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
592 [Steve Henson]
593
594 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
595 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
596 [Steve Henson]
597
598 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
599 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
600 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
601 [Steve Henson]
602
603 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
604 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
605 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
606 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
607 [Steve Henson]
608
609 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
610 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
611 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
612 [Steve Henson]
613
614 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
615 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
616
617 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
618 [Steve Henson]
619
620 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
621 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
622 [Steve Henson]
623
624 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
625 [Steve Henson]
626
627 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
628 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
629 [Steve Henson]
630
631 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
632 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
633 [Steve Henson]
634
635 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
636 [Steve Henson]
637
638 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
639 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
640 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
641 [Steve Henson]
642
643 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
644 [Steve Henson]
645
646 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
647 [Steve Henson]
648
649 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
650 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
651 [Steve Henson]
652
653 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
654 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
655 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
656 [Steve Henson]
657
658 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
659 [Steve Henson]
660
661 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
662 and enable MD5.
663 [Steve Henson]
664
665 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
666 FIPS modules versions.
667 [Steve Henson]
668
669 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
670 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
671 until after the certificate request message is received.
672 [Steve Henson]
673
674 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
675 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
676 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
677 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
678 [Steve Henson]
679
680 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
681 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
682 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
683 support yet and no support for client certificates.
684 [Steve Henson]
685
686 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
687 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
688 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
689 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
690 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
691 and version checking.
692 [Steve Henson]
693
694 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
695 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
696 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
697 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
698 [Steve Henson]
699
700 *) Add SRP support.
701 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
702
703 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
704 [Steve Henson]
705
706 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
707 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
708 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
709
710 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
711 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
712 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
713 [Steve Henson]
714
715 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
716 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
717
718 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
719 a few changes are required:
720
721 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
722 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
723 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
724 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
725 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
726 [Steve Henson]
727
728 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
729
730 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
731 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
732 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
733 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
734 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
735 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
736 an MMA defence is not necessary.
737 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
738 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
739 [Steve Henson]
740
741 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
742 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
743 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
744 [Steve Henson]
745
746 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
747
748 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
749 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
750 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
751 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
752 [Antonio Martin]
753
754 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
755
756 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
757 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
758 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
759 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
760 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
761 paper describing this attack can be found at:
762 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
763 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
764 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
765 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
766 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
767 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
768 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
769
770 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
771 (CVE-2011-4576)
772 [Adam Langley (Google)]
773
774 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
775 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
776 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
777 [Adam Langley (Google)]
778
779 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
780 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
781
782 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
783 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
784 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
785 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
786
787 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
788 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
789
790 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
791 [Adam Langley (Google)]
792
793 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
794 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
795
796 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
797 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
798 [Adam Langley (Google)]
799
800 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
801 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
802 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
803
804 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
805 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
806 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
807 the last update always remained unused).
808 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
809
810 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
811 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
812
813 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
814
815 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
816 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
817 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
818
819 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
820 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
821 [Adam Langley (Google)]
822
823 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
824 [Bodo Moeller]
825
826 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
827 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
828 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
829 [Steve Henson]
830
831 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
832 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
833
834 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
835
836 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
837
838 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
839
840 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
841 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
842
843 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
844 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
845 ambiguous.
846 [Steve Henson]
847
848 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
849
850 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
851 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
852 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
853 [Steve Henson]
854
855 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
856 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
857 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
858 [Ben Laurie]
859
860 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
861
862 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
863 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
864 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
865 [Steve Henson]
866
867 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
868 a DLL.
869 [Steve Henson]
870
871 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
872
873 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
874 (CVE-2010-1633)
875 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
876
877 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
878
879 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
880 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
881 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
882 [Steve Henson]
883
884 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
885 [Steve Henson]
886
887 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
888 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
889 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
890
891 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
892 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
893 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
894 [Steve Henson]
895
896 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
897 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
898 [Steve Henson]
899
900 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
901 some responders need this.
902 [Steve Henson]
903
904 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
905 correctly.
906 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
907
908 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
909 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
910 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
911 [Steve Henson]
912
913 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
914 [Steve Henson]
915
916 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
917 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
918 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
919 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
920 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
921 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
922 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
923 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
924 [Steve Henson]
925
926 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
927 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
928 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
929 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
930
931 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
932 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
933
934 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
935 be used on C++.
936 [Steve Henson]
937
938 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
939 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
940 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
941 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
942 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
943 attempting to work them out.
944 [Steve Henson]
945
946 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
947 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
948 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
949 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
950 [Steve Henson]
951
952 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
953 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
954 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
955 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
956 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
957 [Steve Henson]
958
959 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
960 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
961 you can do:
962
963 openssl sha256 foo
964
965 as well as:
966
967 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
968
969 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
970
971 [Steve Henson]
972
973 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
974 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
975
976 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
977 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
978
979 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
980 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
981 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
982 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
983 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
984 [Steve Henson]
985
986 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
987 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
988 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
989 [Steve Henson]
990
991 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
992 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
993 [Steve Henson]
994
995 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
996 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
997
998 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
999 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1000 [Steve Henson]
1001
1002 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1003 [Ben Laurie]
1004
1005 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1006 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1007 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1008 CONF_VALUE.
1009 [Ben Laurie]
1010
1011 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1012 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1013 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1014 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1015 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1016 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1017 [Steve Henson]
1018
1019 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1020 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1021
1022 This work was sponsored by Google.
1023 [Steve Henson]
1024
1025 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1026 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1027 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1028 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1029 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1030 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1031 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1032 default.
1033
1034 This work was sponsored by Google.
1035 [Steve Henson]
1036
1037 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1038
1039 This work was sponsored by Google.
1040 [Steve Henson]
1041
1042 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1043 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1044 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1045 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.

1047 This work was sponsored by Google.
1048 [Steve Henson]
1049
1050 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1051 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1052 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1053 CRL functionality in future.
1054
1055 This work was sponsored by Google.
1056 [Steve Henson]
1057
1058 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1059
1060 This work was sponsored by Google.
1061 [Steve Henson]
1062
1063 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1064 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1065
1066 This work was sponsored by Google.
1067 [Steve Henson]
1068
1069 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1070 and URI types are currently supported.
1071
1072 This work was sponsored by Google.
1073 [Steve Henson]
1074
1075 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1076 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1077 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1078 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1079 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1080 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1081 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1082 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1083
1084 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1085 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1086 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1087
1088 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1089 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1090 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1091 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1092
1093 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1094 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1095 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1096 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1097 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1098 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1099 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1100 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1101 of &errno.)
1102 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1103
1104 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1105 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1106 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1107
1108 This work was sponsored by Google.
1109 [Steve Henson]
1110
1111 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1112 [Ben Laurie]
1113
1114 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1115 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1116 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1117 [Ben Laurie]
1118
1119 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1120 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1121 [Nick Mathewson]
1122
1123 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1124 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1125 [Ben Laurie]
1126
1127 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1128 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1129 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1130 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1131 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1132 content types and variants.
1133 [Steve Henson]
1134
1135 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1136 [Steve Henson]
1137
1138 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1139 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1140 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1141 files from the associated perl scripts.
1142 [Steve Henson]
1143
1144 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1145 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1146 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1147
1148 *) s390x assembler pack.
1149 [Andy Polyakov]
1150
1151 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1152 "family."
1153 [Andy Polyakov]
1154
1155 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1156 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1157 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1158 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1159 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1160 to use. For example, specify an option
1161
1162 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1163
1164 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1165 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1166 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1167 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1168 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1169 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1170
1171 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1172 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1173 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1174 return non-zero for success.
1175
1176 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1177 by using
1178
1179 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1180 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1181
1182 where
1183
1184 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1185 void *arg;
1186
1187 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1188 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1189 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1190 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1191 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1192 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1193 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1194 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1195 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1196
1197 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1198 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1199 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1200 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1201 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1202 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1203
1204 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1205 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1206 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1207 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1208 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1209 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1210
1211 [Bodo Moeller]
1212
1213 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1214 MAC.
1215
1216 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1217
1218 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1219 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1220 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1221 supported.
1222
1223 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1224 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1225 SSL_SESSION.
1226
1227 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1228 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1229 with no application modification.
1230
1231 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1232 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1233
1234 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1235 or server extensions to be examined.
1236
1237 This work was sponsored by Google.
1238 [Steve Henson]
1239
1240 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1241 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1242 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1243
1244 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1245 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1246 ciphersuite support.
1247 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1248
1249 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1250 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1251 to output in BER and PEM format.
1252 [Steve Henson]
1253
1254 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1255 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1256 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1257 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1258 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1259 [Steve Henson]
1260
1261 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1262 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1263 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1264 utility.
1265 [Steve Henson]
1266
1267 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1268 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1269 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1270 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1271 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1272 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1273 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1274 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1275 enabled again.
1276
1277 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1278 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1279 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1280 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1281
1282 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1283 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1284 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1285 the default order.
1286 [Bodo Moeller]
1287
1288 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1289 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1290 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1291 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1292 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1293 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1294 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1295 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1296 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1297
1298 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1299 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1300 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1301 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1302 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1303 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1304 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1305 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1306 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1307 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1308 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1309 kinds of kludges.
1310
1311 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1312 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1313 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1314
1315 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1316 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1317 "CAMELLIA256".
1318 [Bodo Moeller]
1319
1320 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1321 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1322 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1323 [Nils Larsch]
1324
1325 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1326 it yet and it is largely untested.
1327 [Steve Henson]
1328
1329 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1330 [Nils Larsch]
1331
1332 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1333 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1334 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1335 [Steve Henson]
1336
1337 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1338 [Andy Polyakov]
1339
1340 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1341 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1342 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1343 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1344 [Steve Henson]
1345
1346 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1347 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1348 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1349 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1350 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1351 [Steve Henson]
1352
1353 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1354 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1355 [Cryptocom]
1356
1357 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1358 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1359 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1360 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1361 [Steve Henson]
1362
1363 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1364 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1365 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1366 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1367 [Steve Henson]
1368
1369 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1370 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1371 [Steve Henson]
1372
1373 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1374 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1375 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1376 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1377 [Steve Henson]
1378
1379 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1380 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1381 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1382 [Steve Henson]
1383
1384 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1385 utility.
1386 [Steve Henson]
1387
1388 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1389 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1390 [Steve Henson]
1391
1392 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1393 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1394 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1395 if necessary.
1396 [Steve Henson]
1397
1398 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1399 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1400 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1401 [Steve Henson]
1402
1403 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1404 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1405 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1406 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1407 [Steve Henson]
1408
1409 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1410 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1411 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1412 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1413 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1414 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1415 [Douglas Stebila]
1416
1417 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1418 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1419 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1420 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1421 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1422
1423 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1424 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1425 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1426 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1427 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1428 protocol).
1429
1430 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1431 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1432 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1433 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1434
1435 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1436 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1437 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1438 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1439 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1440
1441 aECDH - ECDH cert
1442 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1443 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1444
1445 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1446 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1447
1448 [Bodo Moeller]
1449
1450 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1451 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1452 [Steve Henson]
1453
1454 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1455 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1456 [Steve Henson]
1457
1458 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1459 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1460 functional reference processing.
1461 [Steve Henson]
1462
1463 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1464 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1465 process.
1466 [Steve Henson]
1467
1468 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1469 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1470 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1471 [Steve Henson]
1472
1473 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1474 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1475 application to support multiple signers.
1476 [Steve Henson]
1477
1478 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1479 digest MAC.
1480 [Steve Henson]
1481
1482 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1483 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1484 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1485 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1486 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1487 [Steve Henson]
1488
1489 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1490 new API.
1491 [Steve Henson]
1492
1493 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1494 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1495 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1496 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1497 a no op.
1498 [Steve Henson]
1499
1500 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1501 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1502 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1503 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1504 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1505 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1506 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1507 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1508 [Steve Henson]
1509
1510 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1511 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1512 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1513 between digests and public key types.
1514 [Steve Henson]
1515
1516 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1517 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1518 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1519 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1520 [Steve Henson]
1521
1522 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1523 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1524 key ASN1 method.
1525 [Steve Henson]
1526
1527 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1528 [Steve Henson]
1529
1530 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1531 pkeyutl.
1532 [Steve Henson]
1533
1534 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1535 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1536 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1537 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1538 pkey, genpkey.
1539 [Steve Henson]
1540
1541 *) BeOS support.
1542 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1543
1544 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1545 manual pages.
1546 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1547
1548 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1549 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1550 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1551 functionality for RSA.
1552 [Steve Henson]
1553
1554 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1555 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1556 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1557 [Steve Henson]
1558
1559 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1560 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1561 [Steve Henson]
1562
1563 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1564 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1565 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1566 [Steve Henson]
1567
1568 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1569 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1570 [Douglas Stebila]
1571
1572 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1573 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1574 [Steve Henson]
1575
1576 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1577 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1578 type.
1579 [Steve Henson]
1580
1581 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1582 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1583 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1584 structure.
1585 [Steve Henson]
1586
1587 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1588 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1589 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1590 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1591 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1592 of public and private key structures.
1593 [Steve Henson]
1594
1595 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1596 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1597 [Douglas Stebila]
1598
1599 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1600 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1601 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1602
1603 New ciphersuites:
1604 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1605 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1606
1607 New functions:
1608 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1609 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1610 SSL_get_psk_identity
1611 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1612
1613 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1614
1615 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1616 and response verification functionality.
1617 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1618
1619 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1620 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1621 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1622 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1623 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1624 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1625 server_name extension.
1626
1627 New functions (subject to change):
1628
1629 SSL_get_servername()
1630 SSL_get_servername_type()
1631 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1632
1633 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1634
1635 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1636 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1637 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1638 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1639 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1640
1641 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1642
1643 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1644 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1645 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1646 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1647 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1648 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1649 option.
1650
1651 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1652
1653 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1654 [Andy Polyakov]
1655
1656 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1657 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1658 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1659 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1660 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1661 [Andy Polyakov]
1662
1663 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1664 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1665 macro.
1666 [Bodo Moeller]
1667
1668 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1669 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1670 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1671 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1672 [Andy Polyakov]
1673
1674 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1675 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1676 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1677 using the maximum available value.
1678 [Steve Henson]
1679
1680 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1681 in addition to the text details.
1682 [Bodo Moeller]
1683
1684 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1685 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1686 handle several customised structures at all.
1687 [Steve Henson]
1688
1689 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1690 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1691 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1692 [Steve Henson]
1693
1694 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1695 [Steve Henson]
1696
1697 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
1698 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
1699 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
1700 [Steve Henson]
1701
1702 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
1703 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
1704 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
1705 [Nils Larsch]
1706
1707 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
1708 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
1709 all fields.
1710 [Steve Henson]
1711
1712 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
1713 [Steve Henson]
1714
1715 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
1716 [NTT]
1717
1718 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
1719
1720 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1721 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1722 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1723 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1724 [Antonio Martin]
1725
1726 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
1727
1728 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1729 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1730 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1731 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1732 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1733 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1734 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1735 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1736 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1737 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1738 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1739 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1740 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1741
1742 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
1743 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
1744
1745 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1746 (CVE-2011-4576)
1747 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1748
1749 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1750 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1751 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1752 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1753
1754 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1755 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1756 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1757 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1758
1759 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1760 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1761
1762 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1763 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1764
1765 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1766 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1767 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1768
1769 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1770 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1771 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1772
1773 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1774 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1775 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1776 the last update always remained unused).
1777 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1778
1779 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1780 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
1781 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1782
1783 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1784 [Bodo Moeller]
1785
1786 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1787 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1788
1789 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1790
1791 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1792
1793 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
1794
1795 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1796 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1797
1798 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1799 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1800 ambiguous.
1801 [Steve Henson]
1802
1803 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
1804
1805 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1806 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1807 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1808 [Steve Henson]
1809
1810 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1811 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1812 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1813 [Ben Laurie]
1814
1815 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
1816
1817 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1818 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1819 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1820 [Steve Henson]
1821
1822 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
1823 [Steve Henson]
1824
1825 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
1826 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
1827 some broken encodings work correctly.
1828 [Steve Henson]
1829
1830 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
1831 is also one of the inputs.
1832 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1833
1834 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
1835 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
1836 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
1837 etc are non-op.
1838 [Steve Henson]
1839
1840 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
1841
1842 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
1843 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
1844
1845 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
1846 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
1847 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
1848
1849 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
1850 common in certificates and some applications which only call
1851 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
1852 [Steve Henson]
1853
1854 *) VMS fixes:
1855 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
1856 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
1857 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
1858 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
1859
1860 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
1861
1862 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
1863 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
1864 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
1865 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
1866 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
1867 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
1868 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
1869 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
1870
1871 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
1872 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
1873 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
1874
1875 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
1876
1877 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
1878 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
1879
1880 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
1881 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
1882 [Bodo Moeller]
1883
1884 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
1885 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
1886 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
1887 [Steve Henson]
1888
1889 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
1890 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
1891 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
1892 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
1893 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
1894 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
1895 [Steve Henson]
1896
1897 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
1898 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
1899 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
1900 [Steve Henson]
1901
1902 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
1903 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
1904 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
1905 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
1906 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
1907 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
1908 CVE-2009-4355.
1909 [Steve Henson]
1910
1911 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
1912 change when encrypting or decrypting.
1913 [Bodo Moeller]
1914
1915 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
1916 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
1917 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
1918 [Steve Henson]
1919
1920 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
1921 [Steve Henson]
1922
1923 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
1924 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
1925 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
1926 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
1927 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
1928 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
1929 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
1930 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
1931 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
1932 [Steve Henson]
1933
1934 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
1935 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
1936 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
1937 [Steve Henson]
1938
1939 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
1940 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
1941 [Steve Henson]
1942
1943 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
1944 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
1945 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
1946 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
1947 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
1948 know what you are doing.
1949 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
1950
1951 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
1952 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
1953 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
1954 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
1955 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
1956 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
1957 the handshake.
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
1961 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
1962 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
1963 correctly.
1964 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1965
1966 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
1967 warnings in other configurations.
1968 [Steve Henson]
1969
1970 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
1971 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
1972 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
1973 systems need.
1974 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
1975
1976 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
1977 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
1978 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
1979
1980 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
1981 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
1982 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
1983 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
1984 [Steve Henson]
1985
1986 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
1987 and restored.
1988 [Steve Henson]
1989
1990 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
1991 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
1992 clash.
1993 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1994
1995 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
1996 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
1997 other than a simple chain.
1998 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
1999
2000 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2001 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2002 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2003 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2004 [Steve Henson]
2005
2006 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2007 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2008 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2009 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2010 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2011 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2012 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2013 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2014 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2015
2016 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2017 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2018 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2019 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2020 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2021 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2022 (CVE-2009-1377)
2023 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2024
2025 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2026 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2027 [Daniel Mentz]
2028
2029 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2030 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2031
2032 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2033 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2034
2035 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2036
2037 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2038 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2039 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2040 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2041 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2042 you're doing.
2043 [Ben Laurie]
2044
2045 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2046
2047 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2048 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2049 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2050 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2051
2052 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2053 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2054 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2055 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2056
2057 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2058 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2059 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2060 [Steve Henson]
2061
2062 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2063 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2064 level.
2065 [Steve Henson]
2066
2067 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2068 to handle some structures.
2069 [Steve Henson]
2070
2071 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2072 for a '\n'
2073 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2074
2075 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2076 [Matthieu Herrb]
2077
2078 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2079 [Steve Henson]
2080
2081 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2082 [Steve Henson]
2083
2084 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2085 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2086 chosen compiler.
2087 [Ben Laurie]
2088
2089 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2090
2091 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2092 (CVE-2008-5077).
2093 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2094
2095 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2096 [Ben Laurie]
2097
2098 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2099 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2100 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2101 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2102
2103 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2104 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2105
2106 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2107 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2108 [Bodo Moeller]
2109
2110 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2111 s_client and s_server.
2112 [Ben Laurie]
2113
2114 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2115 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2116
2117 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2118 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2119
2120 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2121 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2122 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2123 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2124 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2125 [Bodo Moeller]
2126
2127 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2128
2129 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2130 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2131 [PR #1679]
2132
2133 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2134 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2135 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2136
2137 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2138 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2139 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2140 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2141
2142 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2143 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2144
2145 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2146
2147 *) Various precautionary measures:
2148
2149 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2150
2151 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2152 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2153 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2154
2155 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2156 outside the expected range.
2157
2158 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2159 builds.
2160
2161 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2162
2163 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2164 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2165 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2166
2167 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2168 [Steve Henson]
2169
2170 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2171 [Huang Ying]
2172
2173 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2174
2175 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2176 [Steve Henson]
2177
2178 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2179 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2180 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2181
2182 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2183 [Steve Henson]
2184
2185 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2186 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2187 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2188 files.
2189 [Steve Henson]
2190
2191 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2192
2193 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2194 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2195 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2196 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2197
2198 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2199 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2200 [Joe Orton]
2201
2202 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2203
2204 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2205 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2206 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2207
2208 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2209
2210 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2211 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2212 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2213 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2214 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2215
2216 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2217 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2218 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2219 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2220 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2221 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2222 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2223
2224 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2225
2226 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2227 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2228 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2229 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2230 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2231
2232 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2233 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2234
2235 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2236 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2237 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2238 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2239 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2240
2241 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2242
2243 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2244 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2245 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2246 sets may exist with different names.
2247 [Steve Henson]
2248
2249 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2250 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2251 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2252 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2253 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2254 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2255 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2256 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2257 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2258 implementation.
2259 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2260
2261 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2262 implemention in the following ways:
2263
2264 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2265 hard coded.
2266
2267 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2268 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2269 ignored for embedded content.
2270
2271 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2272 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2273 [Steve Henson]
2274
2275 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2276 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2277 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2278 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2279
2280 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2281 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2282 [Steve Henson]
2283
2284 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2285 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2286 [Steve Henson]
2287
2288 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2289 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2290 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2291 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2292 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2293 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2294 data.
2295 [Steve Henson]
2296
2297 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2298 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2299 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2300
2301 *) Netware support:
2302
2303 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2304 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2305 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2306 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2307 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2308 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2309 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2310 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2311 platform
2312 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2313 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2314 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2315 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2316 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2317 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2318 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2319
2320 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2321 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2322 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2323 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2324 to s_client and s_server.
2325 [Steve Henson]
2326
2327 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2328
2329 *) Fix various bugs:
2330 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2331 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2332 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2333 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2334 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2335
2336 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2337
2338 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2339 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2340 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2341 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2342 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2343 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2344 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2345 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2346 [Andy Polyakov]
2347
2348 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2349 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2350 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2351 Steve Henson]
2352
2353 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2354 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2355 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2356 supported.
2357
2358 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2359 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2360 SSL_SESSION.
2361
2362 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2363 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2364 with no application modification.
2365
2366 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2367 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2368
2369 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2370 or server extensions to be examined.
2371
2372 This work was sponsored by Google.
2373 [Steve Henson]
2374
2375 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2376 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2377 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2378 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2379 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2380 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2381 server_name extension.
2382
2383 New functions (subject to change):
2384
2385 SSL_get_servername()
2386 SSL_get_servername_type()
2387 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2388
2389 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2390
2391 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2392 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2393 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2394 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2395 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2396
2397 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2398
2399 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2400 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2401 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2402 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2403 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2404 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2405 option.
2406
2407 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2408
2409 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2410 [Steve Henson]
2411
2412 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2413 [Andy Polyakov]
2414
2415 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2416 (which previously caused an internal error).
2417 [Bodo Moeller]
2418
2419 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2420 [Ben Laurie]
2421
2422 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2423 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2424
2425 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2426 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2427 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2428
2429 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2430 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2431 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2432 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2433
2434 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2435 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2436 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2437 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2438
2439 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2440 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2441 information. For detailed background information, see
2442 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2443 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2444 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2445 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2446 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2447 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2448 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2449 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2450 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2451 remove a conditional branch.
2452
2453 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2454 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2455 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2456 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2457 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2458 remains as a deprecated alias.
2459
2460 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2461 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2462 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2463 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2464
2465 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2466 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2467 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2468 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2469 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2470 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2471 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2472 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2473
2474 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2475
2476 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2477 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2478 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2479 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2480 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2481 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2482 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2483 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2484 in a different context.
2485 [Bodo Moeller]
2486
2487 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2488 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2489 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2490 [Bodo Moeller]
2491
2492 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2493 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2494 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2495
2496 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2497
2498 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2499 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2500 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2501 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2502 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2503 [Victor Duchovni]
2504
2505 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2506 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2507 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2508 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2509 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2510 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2511 [Bodo Moeller]
2512
2513 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2514 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2515 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2516 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2517 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2518 [Bodo Moeller]
2519
2520 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2521 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2522
2523 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2524 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2525 Improve header file function name parsing.
2526 [Steve Henson]
2527
2528 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2529 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2530 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2531
2532 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2533
2534 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2535 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2536 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2537
2538 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2539 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2540
2541 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2542 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2543
2544 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2545 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2546 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2547
2548 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2549 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2550 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2551 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2552 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2553 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2554 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2555 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2556 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2557
2558 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2559 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2560 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2561 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2562 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2563
2564 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2565 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2566 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2567 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2568 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2569 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2570 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2571 multiple values to extend the available space.
2572
2573 [Bodo Moeller]
2574
2575 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2576
2577 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2578 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2579
2580 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2581 [Ben Laurie]
2582
2583 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2584 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2585 undesirable limitations.
2586 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2587
2588 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2589 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2590 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2591 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2592 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2593 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2594 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2595 [Bodo Moeller]
2596
2597 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2598
2599 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2600 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2601 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2602
2603 The latter two were purportedly from
2604 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2605 appear there.
2606
2607 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
2608 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2609 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2610 [Bodo Moeller]
2611
2612 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2613 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2614 [Bodo Moeller]
2615
2616 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2617 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2618 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2619 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2620
2621 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2622 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2623 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2624 [NTT]
2625
2626 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2627 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2628 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2629 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2630 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2631 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2632 [Steve Henson]
2633
2634 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
2635
2636 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2637 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2638 [Steve Henson]
2639
2640 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2641 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2642
2643 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2644 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2645 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2646 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
2647 [Douglas Stebila]
2648
2649 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2650 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2651 [Steve Henson]
2652
2653 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
2654 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
2655 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
2656 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
2657 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
2658 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
2659 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
2660 can't be loaded.
2661 [Steve Henson]
2662
2663 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
2664 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
2665 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
2666 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
2667 [Steve Henson]
2668
2669 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
2670 under VC++ build system.
2671 [Steve Henson]
2672
2673 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
2674 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
2675 [Richard Levitte]
2676
2677 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
2678
2679 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2680 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2681 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2682 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2683 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2684
2685 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2686 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2687 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2688
2689 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
2690 [Steve Henson]
2691
2692 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
2693 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2694 [Nils Larsch]
2695
2696 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
2697 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
2698
2699 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
2700 [Nick Mathewson]
2701
2702 *) Extended Windows CE support.
2703 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
2704
2705 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
2706 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2707 [Steve Henson]
2708
2709 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
2710 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
2711 smime utility.
2712 [Steve Henson]
2713
2714 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
2715
2716 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2717 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2718
2719 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
2720 [Richard Levitte]
2721
2722 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
2723 key into the same file any more.
2724 [Richard Levitte]
2725
2726 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
2727 [Andy Polyakov]
2728
2729 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
2730 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
2731
2732 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
2733 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
2734 [Richard Levitte]
2735
2736 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
2737 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
2738 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
2739 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
2740 this only applies when building 'shared'.
2741 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
2742
2743 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
2744 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
2745 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
2746 [Steve Henson]
2747
2748 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
2749 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
2750 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
2751 - add new function for parameter creation
2752 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
2753 BN_BLINDING parameters
2754 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
2755 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
2756 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
2757 threads.
2758 [Nils Larsch]
2759
2760 *) Add support for DTLS.
2761 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2762
2763 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
2764 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
2765 [Walter Goulet]
2766
2767 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
2768 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
2769 [Nils Larsch]
2770
2771 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
2772 the apps/openssl applications.
2773 [Nils Larsch]
2774
2775 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
2776 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
2777 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
2778 [Ben Laurie]
2779
2780 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
2781 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
2782
2783 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
2784 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
2785
2786 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
2787 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
2788 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
2789 avoid this algorithm.)
2790
2791 [Bodo Moeller]
2792
2793 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
2794 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
2795 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
2796 [Richard Levitte]
2797
2798 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
2799 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
2800 [Andy Polyakov]
2801
2802 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
2803 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
2804 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
2805 pod file:
2806
2807 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
2808
2809 The blank line is mandatory.
2810
2811 [Steve Henson]
2812
2813 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
2814 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
2815 sources.
2816 [Steve Henson]
2817
2818 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
2819 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
2820
2821 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
2822 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
2823 to support policy checking and print out.
2824 [Steve Henson]
2825
2826 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
2827 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
2828 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
2829 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
2830
2831 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
2832 [Geoff Thorpe]
2833
2834 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
2835 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
2836
2837 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
2838 implementation contributed by IBM.
2839 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
2840
2841 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
2842 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
2843 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
2844 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
2845
2846 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
2847 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
2848
2849 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
2850 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
2851 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
2852 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
2853 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
2854 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
2855 [Steve Henson]
2856
2857 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
2858 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
2859 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
2860 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
2861 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
2862 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
2863 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
2864 [Geoff Thorpe]
2865
2866 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
2867 [Steve Henson]
2868
2869 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
2870 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
2871 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
2872 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
2873 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
2874 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
2875 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
2876 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
2877 [Steve Henson]
2878
2879 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
2880 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
2881 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
2882 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
2883 [Steve Henson]
2884
2885 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
2886 syntax:
2887
2888 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
2889 [Steve Henson]
2890
2891 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
2892 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
2893 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
2894 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
2895 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
2896 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
2897 BN_CTX's "bundling".
2898 [Geoff Thorpe]
2899
2900 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
2901 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
2902 [Geoff Thorpe]
2903
2904 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
2905 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
2906 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
2907 [Steve Henson]
2908
2909 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
2910 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
2911 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
2912 below).
2913 [Geoff Thorpe]
2914
2915 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
2916 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
2917 [Richard Levitte]
2918
2919 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
2920 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
2921 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
2922 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
2923 [Geoff Thorpe]
2924
2925 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
2926 initialised value as BN_new().
2927 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
2928
2929 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
2930 [Steve Henson]
2931
2932 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
2933 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
2934 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
2935 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
2936 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
2937 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
2938 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
2939 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
2940 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
2941 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
2942 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
2943 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
2944 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
2945 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
2946 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
2947
2948 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
2949 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
2950 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
2951 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
2952 [Geoff Thorpe]
2953
2954 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
2955 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
2956 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
2957 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
2958 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
2959 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
2960 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
2961 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
2962 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
2963 [Geoff Thorpe]
2964
2965 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
2966 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
2967 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
2968 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
2969 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
2970 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
2971 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
2972 [Geoff Thorpe]
2973
2974 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
2975 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
2976 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
2977 these have been updated also.
2978 [Geoff Thorpe]
2979
2980 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
2981 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
2982 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
2983 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
2984 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
2985 functions.
2986 [Steve Henson]
2987
2988 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
2989 structure of type "other".
2990 [Steve Henson]
2991
2992 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
2993 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
2994 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
2995 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
2996 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
2997 situation in the script.
2998 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2999
3000 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3001 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3002 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3003 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3004 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3005 used as premaster secret.
3006 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3007
3008 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3009 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3010 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3011
3012 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3013 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3014
3015 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3016 control of the error stack.
3017 [Richard Levitte]
3018
3019 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3020 [Richard Levitte]
3021
3022 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3023 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3024 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3025 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3026 [Richard Levitte]
3027
3028 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3029 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3030 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3031 [Richard Levitte]
3032
3033 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3034 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3035 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3036 a memory area.
3037 [Richard Levitte]
3038
3039 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3040 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3041 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3042 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3043 [Richard Levitte]
3044
3045 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3046 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3047 the following flags are defined:
3048
3049 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3050 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3051 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3052 number.
3053
3054 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3055 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3056 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3057 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3058 returns zero.
3059 [Richard Levitte]
3060
3061 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3062 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3063 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3064 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3065 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3066 [Richard Levitte]
3067
3068 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3069 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3070 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3071 [Richard Levitte]
3072
3073 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3074 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3075 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3076 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3077 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3078 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3079 [Richard Levitte]
3080
3081 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3082 req and dirName.
3083 [Steve Henson]
3084
3085 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3086 [Steve Henson]
3087
3088 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3089 [Steve Henson]
3090
3091 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3092 [Steve Henson]
3093
3094 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3095 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3096 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3097 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3098 default implementation more easily.
3099 [Geoff Thorpe]
3100
3101 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3102 in config files.
3103 [Steve Henson]
3104
3105 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3106 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3107 [Richard Levitte]
3108
3109 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3110 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3111 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3112 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3113
3114 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3115 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3116 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3117 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3118 [Steve Henson]
3119
3120 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3121 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3122 to do it.
3123 [Richard Levitte]
3124
3125 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3126 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3127 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3128 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3129 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3130 scalar * generator).
3131 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3132
3133 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3134 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3135 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3136 correctly.
3137 [Steve Henson]
3138
3139 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3140 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3141 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3142 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3143 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3144 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3145 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3146 linker additions, eg;
3147 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3148 [Geoff Thorpe]
3149
3150 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3151 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3152 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3153 [Geoff Thorpe]
3154
3155 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3156 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3157 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3158 via PR#459)
3159 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3160
3161 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3162 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3163 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3164 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3165 [Geoff Thorpe]
3166
3167 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3168 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3169 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3170 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3171 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3172 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3173 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3174 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3175 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3176 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3177
3178 Example for using the new callback interface:
3179
3180 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3181 void *my_arg = ...;
3182 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3183
3184 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3185
3186 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3187 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3188 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3189 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3190 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3191 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3192 */
3193
3194 [Geoff Thorpe]
3195
3196 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3197 available to TLS with the number defined in
3198 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3199 [Richard Levitte]
3200
3201 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3202 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3203
3204 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3205 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3206 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3207 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3208
3209 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3210 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3211
3212 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3213 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3214 well.
3215 [Richard Levitte]
3216
3217 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3218 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3219 [Richard Levitte]
3220
3221 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3222 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3223 and a macro that behave like
3224 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3225
3226 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3227 [Nils Larsch]
3228
3229 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3230 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3231 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3232 if applicable.
3233 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3234
3235 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3236 [Bodo Moeller]
3237
3238 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3239 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3240 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3241 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3242 directory engines/.
3243 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3244 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3245 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3246 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3247 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3248 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3249 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3250 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3251
3252 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3253 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3254 [Richard Levitte]
3255
3256 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3257 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3258
3259 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3260 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3261 files while avoiding the low level API.
3262
3263 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3264 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3265 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3266 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3267
3268 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3269 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3270 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3271 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3272 instead of the low level API.
3273 [Steve Henson]
3274
3275 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3276 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3277 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3278 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3279 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3280 PKCS#7 code.
3281
3282 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3283 down to the template encoder.
3284 [Steve Henson]
3285
3286 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3287 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3288 [Bodo Moeller]
3289
3290 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3291 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3292 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3293 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3294
3295 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3296 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3297
3298 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3299 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3300
3301 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3302 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3303 [Bodo Moeller]
3304
3305 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3306 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3307 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3308 [Bodo Moeller]
3309
3310 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3311 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3312
3313 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3314 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3315
3316 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3317 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3318 New EC_METHOD:
3319
3320 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3321
3322 New API functions:
3323
3324 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3325 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3326 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3327 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3328 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3329 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3330
3331 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3332 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3333 enable it).
3334
3335 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3336 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3337 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3338 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3339 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3340 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3341 various internal method names.)
3342
3343 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3344 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3345
3346 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3347 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3348
3349 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3350 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3351
3352 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3353 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3354 methods are undefined.
3355
3356 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3357 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3358
3359 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3360 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3361 length of the modulus.
3362
3363 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3364 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3365
3366 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3367 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3368
3369 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3370 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3371
3372 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3373 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3374 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3375
3376 BN_GF2m_add
3377 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3378 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3379 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3380 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3381 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3382 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3383 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3384 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3385 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3386
3387 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3388 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3389
3390 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3391 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3392 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3393 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3394 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3395 where
3396 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3397 This applies to the following functions:
3398
3399 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3400 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3401 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3402 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3403 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3404 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3405 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3406 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3407 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3408 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3409
3410 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3411
3412 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3413 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3414
3415 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3416
3417 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3418 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3419 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3420 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3421 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3422
3423 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3424 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3425
3426 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3427 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3428 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3429
3430 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3431 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3432
3433 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3434 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3435 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3436 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3437 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3438
3439 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3440 functions
3441 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3442 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3443 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3444 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3445 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3446 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3447 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3448 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3449 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3450 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3451 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3452 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3453
3454 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3455 functions
3456 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3457 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3458 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3459 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3460 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3461
3462 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3463 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3464 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3465 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3466
3467 *) Add functions
3468 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3469 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3470 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3471 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3472 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3473 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3474 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3475
3476 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3477 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3478 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3479 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3480 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3481 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3482 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3483 adding different types of curves.
3484 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3485
3486 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3487 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3488 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3489 [Bodo Moeller]
3490
3491 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3492 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3493
3494 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3495 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3496 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3497 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3498
3499 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3500
3501 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3502 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3503
3504 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3505 library. Most notably,
3506 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3507 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3508 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3509 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3510 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3511 extracted before the specific public key;
3512 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3513 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3514
3515 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3516 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3517 function
3518 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3519 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3520 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3521 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3522 accessed via
3523 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3524 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3525 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3526
3527 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3528 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3529 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3530 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3531 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3532 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3533 differing sizes.
3534 [Richard Levitte]
3535
3536 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3537
3538 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3539 sensitive data.
3540 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3541
3542 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3543 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3544 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3545 [Bodo Moeller]
3546
3547 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3548 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3549 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3550 [Victor Duchovni]
3551
3552 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3553 [Steve Henson]
3554
3555 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3556 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3557 [Steve Henson]
3558
3559 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3560 run algorithm test programs.
3561 [Steve Henson]
3562
3563 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3564 [Steve Henson]
3565
3566 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3567 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3568 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3569 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3570 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3571 [Bodo Moeller]
3572
3573 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3574 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3575 [Steve Henson]
3576
3577 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3578
3579 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3580 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3581 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3582
3583 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3584 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3585
3586 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3587 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3588
3589 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3590 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3591 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3592
3593 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3594 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3595 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3596 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3597 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
3598 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
3599 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
3600 [Bodo Moeller]
3601
3602 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
3603
3604 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3605 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3606
3607 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3608 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3609 undesirable limitations.
3610 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3611
3612 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3613
3614 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3615 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3616 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3617
3618 The latter two were purportedly from
3619 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3620 appear there.
3621
3622 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3623 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3624 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3625 [Bodo Moeller]
3626
3627 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3628 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3629 [Bodo Moeller]
3630
3631 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3632
3633 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3634 module in FIPS mode.
3635 [Steve Henson]
3636
3637 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3638 [Steve Henson]
3639
3640 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3641 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3642 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3643 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
3644 [Steve Henson]
3645
3646 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3647
3648 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3649 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3650 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3651 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3652 the difference induced by this change.
3653 [Andy Polyakov]
3654
3655 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
3656
3657 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3658 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3659 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3660 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3661 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3662
3663 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3664 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3665 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3666
3667 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
3668 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
3669 [Steve Henson]
3670
3671 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
3672 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
3673 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
3674 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
3675 biased k.)
3676 [Bodo Moeller]
3677
3678 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
3679 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
3680 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
3681 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
3682 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
3683
3684 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
3685 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
3686 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
3687 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
3688 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
3689 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
3690
3691 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
3692
3693 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
3694 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
3695 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
3696 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
3697 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
3698 [Bodo Moeller]
3699
3700 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
3701 clients need.
3702 [Steve Henson]
3703
3704 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
3705 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
3706 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
3707 [Steve Henson]
3708
3709 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
3710 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
3711 structures constant.
3712 [Steve Henson]
3713
3714 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
3715
3716 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3717 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3718
3719 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
3720 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
3721 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
3722 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
3723 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
3724 some needed definitions.
3725 [Steve Henson]
3726
3727 *) Undo Cygwin change.
3728 [Ulf Möller]
3729
3730 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
3731 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
3732 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
3733 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
3734 [Richard Levitte]
3735
3736 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
3737
3738 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
3739 server and client random values. Previously
3740 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
3741 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
3742
3743 This change has negligible security impact because:
3744
3745 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
3746 data.
3747
3748 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
3749 handshake.
3750
3751 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
3752 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
3753 values.
3754
3755 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
3756 to our attention.
3757
3758 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
3759
3760 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
3761 [Ulf Möller]
3762
3763 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
3764 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
3765 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
3766
3767 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
3768 [Steve Henson]
3769
3770 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
3771 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
3772 [Andy Polyakov]
3773
3774 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
3775 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
3776 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
3777
3778 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
3779 [Steve Henson]
3780
3781 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
3782 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
3783 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
3784 certificates.
3785 [Steve Henson]
3786
3787 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
3788 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
3789 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
3790 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
3791
3792 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
3793 has chosen to ignore this fault)
3794 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
3795 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
3796 been given)
3797 [Richard Levitte]
3798
3799 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
3800
3801 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
3802 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
3803 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
3804 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
3805 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
3806 [Steve Henson]
3807
3808 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
3809 [Steve Henson]
3810
3811 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
3812 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
3813
3814 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
3815 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
3816 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
3817 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
3818 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
3819 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
3820 rather than being initialized to 1.
3821 [Steve Henson]
3822
3823 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
3824
3825 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
3826 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
3827 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3828
3829 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
3830 (CVE-2004-0112)
3831 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3832
3833 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3834 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3835 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3836 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3837 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3838 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3839 [Richard Levitte]
3840
3841 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
3842 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
3843 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
3844 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
3845 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
3846 for these cases.
3847 [Steve Henson]
3848
3849 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
3850 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
3851 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
3852 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
3853 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
3854 [Steve Henson]
3855
3856 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
3857 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
3858 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
3859 < 0.9.7.
3860 [Steve Henson]
3861
3862 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
3863 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
3864
3865 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
3866 [Steve Henson]
3867
3868 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
3869
3870 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
3871
3872 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
3873 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
3874
3875 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
3876
3877 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
3878 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
3879
3880 [Steve Henson]
3881
3882 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
3883 exiting on the first error in a request.
3884 [Steve Henson]
3885
3886 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
3887 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
3888 specifications.
3889 [Steve Henson]
3890
3891 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
3892 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
3893 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
3894 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
3895
3896 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
3897 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
3898 [Richard Levitte]
3899
3900 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
3901 blocks during encryption.
3902 [Richard Levitte]
3903
3904 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
3905 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
3906 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
3907 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
3908 certain size.
3909 [Steve Henson]
3910
3911 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
3912 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
3913 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
3914 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
3915 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
3916 parser.
3917 [Steve Henson]
3918
3919 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
3920
3921 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
3922 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
3923 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
3924 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
3925 [Bodo Moeller]
3926
3927 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
3928 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
3929 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
3930 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
3931 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
3932
3933 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
3934 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
3935 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
3936 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
3937 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
3938 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
3939 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
3940 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
3941 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
3942 [Bodo Moeller]
3943
3944 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
3945 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
3946 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
3947 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
3948 [Geoff Thorpe]
3949
3950 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
3951 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
3952 [Ulf Moeller]
3953
3954 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
3955
3956 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
3957 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
3958 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
3959 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
3960 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
3961
3962 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
3963 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
3964 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
3965
3966 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
3967 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
3968 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
3969 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
3970 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
3971
3972 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
3973 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
3974 used by default when no-err is given.
3975 [Richard Levitte]
3976
3977 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
3978 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
3979
3980 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
3981 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
3982 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
3983 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
3984 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
3985
3986 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
3987 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
3988 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
3989 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
3990
3991 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
3992
3993 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
3994
3995 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
3996
3997 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
3998 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
3999 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4000 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4001 root is omitted).
4002 [Steve Henson]
4003
4004 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4005 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4006
4007 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4008 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4009 [Steve Henson]
4010
4011 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4012 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4013 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4014 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4015 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4016
4017 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4018 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4019 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4020 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4021 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4022 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4023 followup to PR #377.
4024 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4025
4026 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4027 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4028 [Andy Polyakov]
4029
4030 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4031 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4032 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4033 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4034
4035 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4036
4037 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4038 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4039
4040 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4041 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4042 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4043 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4044 client and server.
4045 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4046 PR #377.
4047 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4048
4049 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4050 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4051 removed entirely.
4052 [Richard Levitte]
4053
4054 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4055 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4056 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4057 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4058 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4059 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4060 of libcrypto.
4061 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4062 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4063 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4064 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4065 have to be made anyway).
4066 [Richard Levitte]
4067
4068 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4069 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4070 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4071 [Steve Henson]
4072
4073 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4074 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4075 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4076 [Richard Levitte]
4077
4078 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4079 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4080 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4081
4082 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4083 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4084 edit numbers of the version.
4085 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4086
4087 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4088 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4089 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4090
4091 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4092 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4093
4094 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4095 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4096 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4097
4098 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4099 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4100
4101 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4102 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4103
4104 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4105 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4106
4107 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4108 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4109
4110 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4111 overflows.
4112 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4113
4114 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4115 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4116 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4117
4118 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4119 representations in a platform independent manner.
4120 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4121
4122 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4123 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4124 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4125
4126 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4127 indents.
4128 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4129
4130 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4131 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4132
4133 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4134 full. Fixed.
4135 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4136
4137 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4138 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4139 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4140
4141 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4142 unconditionally).
4143 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4144
4145 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4146 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4147
4148 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4149 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4150
4151 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4152 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4153
4154 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4155 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4156
4157 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4158 CBCParameter.
4159 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4160
4161 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4162 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4163
4164 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4165 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4166
4167 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4168 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4169 exploitable.
4170 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4171
4172 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4173 the 0.9.6 release series:
4174
4175 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4176 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4177 (CVE-2002-0657)
4178 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4179
4180 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4181 [Richard Levitte]
4182
4183 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4184 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4185
4186 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4187 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4188
4189 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4190 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4191 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4192 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4193
4194 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4195 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4196 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4197
4198 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4199 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4200 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4201 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4202
4203 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4204 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4205 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4206 some local tweaks:
4207
4208 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4209 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4210 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4211 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4212 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4213 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4214 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4215 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4216 done
4217
4218 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4219 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4220 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4221 [Richard Levitte]
4222
4223 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4224 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4225 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4226 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4227 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4228
4229 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4230 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4231
4232 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4233 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4234 [Richard Levitte]
4235
4236 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4237 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4238 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4239 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4240 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4241 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4242 [Steve Henson]
4243
4244 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4245 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4246 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4247 [Steve Henson]
4248
4249 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4250 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4251 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4252
4253 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4254 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4255 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4256 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4257 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4258 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4259 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4260 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4261
4262 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4263 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4264 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4265 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4266 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4267 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4268 [Steve Henson]
4269
4270 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4271 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4272 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4273 declaration has been changed from
4274 int (*cb)()
4275 into
4276 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4277 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4278 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4279 has been changed into
4280 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4281
4282 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4283 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4284 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4285
4286 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4287 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4288
4289 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4290 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4291 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4292 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4293 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4294 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4295 always load it have also been added.
4296 [Steve Henson]
4297
4298 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4299 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4300 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4301
4302 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4303
4304 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4305 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4306 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4307
4308 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4309 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4310 command line option can be used to specify an
4311 alternative file.
4312 [Steve Henson]
4313
4314 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4315 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4316 [Steve Henson]
4317
4318 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4319 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4320 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4321 [Steve Henson]
4322
4323 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4324 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4325 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4326 to work with the new engine framework.
4327 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4328
4329 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4330 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4331 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4332 to work with the new engine framework.
4333 [Richard Levitte]
4334
4335 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4336 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4337 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4338
4339 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4340 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4341
4342 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4343 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4344 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4345 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4346 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4347 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4348
4349 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4350 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4351
4352 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4353 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4354
4355 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4356 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4357 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4358 [Ben Laurie]
4359
4360 *) Add new functions
4361 ERR_peek_last_error
4362 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4363 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4364 These are similar to
4365 ERR_peek_error
4366 ERR_peek_error_line
4367 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4368 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4369 still in the error queue.
4370 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4371
4372 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4373 like:
4374 default_algorithms = ALL
4375 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4376 [Steve Henson]
4377
4378 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4379 [Steve Henson]
4380
4381 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4382 [Steve Henson]
4383
4384 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4385 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4386 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4387 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4388
4389 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4390 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4391
4392 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4393 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4394
4395 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4396 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4397 [Bodo Moeller]
4398
4399 *) New functions/macros
4400
4401 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4402 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4403 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4404 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4405
4406 to request calling a callback function
4407
4408 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4409 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4410
4411 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4412 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4413 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4414 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4415 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4416 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4417 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4418 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4419 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4420 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4421
4422 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4423 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4424 [Bodo Moeller]
4425
4426 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4427 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4428 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4429 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4430 the configuration scripts.
4431
4432 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4433 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4434 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4435
4436 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4437 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4438
4439 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4440 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4441 when reusing an existing buffer.
4442 [Bodo Moeller]
4443
4444 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4445 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4446 [Steve Henson]
4447
4448 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4449 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4450 [Ben Laurie]
4451
4452 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4453 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4454 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4455 has the same effect.
4456 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4457
4458 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4459 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4460 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4461 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4462 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4463 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4464 exception.
4465
4466 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4467 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4468 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4469 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4470
4471 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4472 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4473 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4474 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4475
4476 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4477 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4478 won't work.
4479
4480 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4481 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4482 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4483 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4484 default), and then completely removed.
4485 [Richard Levitte]
4486
4487 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4488 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4489 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4490 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4491 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4492 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4493 particular extension is supported.
4494 [Steve Henson]
4495
4496 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4497 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4498 [Steve Henson]
4499
4500 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4501 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4502 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4503 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4504 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4505 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4506 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4507 requires the destination to be valid.
4508
4509 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4510 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4511 [Steve Henson]
4512
4513 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4514 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4515 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4516 [Bodo Moeller]
4517
4518 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4519 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4520
4521 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4522 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4523 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4524 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4525 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4526 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4527 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4528 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4529 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4530 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4531 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4532 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4533 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4534 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4535 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4536 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4537 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4538 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4539 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4540 the new code.
4541 [Geoff Thorpe]
4542
4543 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4544 [Steve Henson]
4545
4546 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4547 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4548 become part of libeay.num as well.
4549 [Richard Levitte]
4550
4551 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4552 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4553 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4554 false once a handshake has been completed.
4555 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4556 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4557 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4558 client has followed the request.)
4559 [Bodo Moeller]
4560
4561 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4562 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4563 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4564 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4565
4566 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4567 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4568 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4569 [Bodo Moeller]
4570
4571 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4572 [Steve Henson]
4573
4574 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4575 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4576 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4577 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4578
4579 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4580 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4581 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4582
4583 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4584 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4585 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4586 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4587 [Geoff Thorpe]
4588
4589 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4590 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4591 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4592 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4593 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4594 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4595 [Geoff Thorpe]
4596
4597 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
4598 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4599 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4600 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4601 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4602 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4603 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4604 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4605 [Geoff Thorpe]
4606
4607 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
4608 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
4609 [Geoff Thorpe]
4610
4611 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
4612 [Ben Laurie]
4613
4614 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
4615 md_data void pointer.
4616 [Ben Laurie]
4617
4618 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
4619 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4620 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4621 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4622 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4623 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4624 [Ben Laurie]
4625
4626 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
4627 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4628 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4629 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4630 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4631 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4632 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4633 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4634 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4635 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4636 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4637 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4638 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4639 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4640 rather than letting it slide.
4641
4642 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4643 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4644 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
4645 [Geoff Thorpe]
4646
4647 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
4648 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4649 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4650 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4651 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4652 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
4653 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
4654 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
4655 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
4656 [Geoff Thorpe]
4657
4658 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
4659 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
4660 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
4661 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
4662 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
4663
4664 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
4665 [Geoff Thorpe]
4666
4667 *) Add EVP test program.
4668 [Ben Laurie]
4669
4670 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
4671 [Ben Laurie]
4672
4673 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
4674 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
4675 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
4676 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
4677 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
4678 [Steve Henson]
4679
4680 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
4681 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
4682 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
4683 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
4684 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
4685 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
4686 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
4687
4688 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
4689 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
4690 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
4691 Usage example:
4692
4693 EVP_MD_CTX md;
4694
4695 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
4696 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
4697 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
4698 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
4699 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
4700
4701 [Ben Laurie]
4702
4703 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
4704 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
4705 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
4706 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
4707 anyway): E.g.,
4708
4709 des_key_schedule ks;
4710
4711 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
4712 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
4713
4714 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
4715 [Ben Laurie]
4716
4717 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
4718 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
4719 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
4720 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
4721 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
4722 functions prevents this.
4723 [Steve Henson]
4724
4725 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
4726 [Ben Laurie]
4727
4728 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
4729 correct _ecb suffix.
4730 [Ben Laurie]
4731
4732 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
4733 revocation information is handled using the text based index
4734 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
4735 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
4736 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
4737 [Steve Henson]
4738
4739 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
4740 [Richard Levitte]
4741
4742 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
4743 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
4744 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
4745 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
4746
4747 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
4748 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
4749
4750 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
4751 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4752 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
4753 via Richard Levitte]
4754
4755 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
4756 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
4757 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
4758 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
4759 [Geoff Thorpe]
4760
4761 *) Speed up EVP routines.
4762 Before:

4777 [Ben Laurie]
4778
4779 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
4780 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
4781
4782 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
4783 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
4784 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
4785 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
4786 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
4787 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
4788 [Steve Henson]
4789
4790 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
4791 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
4792 [Richard Levitte]
4793
4794 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
4795 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
4796 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
4797 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
4798
4799 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
4800 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
4801 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
4802 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
4803 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
4804 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
4805 callback.
4806 [Richard Levitte]
4807
4808 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
4809 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
4810 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
4811 and interrupts/cancellations.
4812 [Richard Levitte]
4813
4814 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
4815 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
4816 [Steve Henson]
4817
4818 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
4819 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
4820 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
4821
4822 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
4823 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
4824 kind of callback.
4825 [Richard Levitte]
4826
4827 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
4828 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
4829 than this minimum value is recommended.
4830 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4831
4832 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
4833 that are easily reachable.
4834 [Richard Levitte]
4835
4836 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
4837 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
4838
4839 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
4840
4841 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
4842 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
4843 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
4844 needed for static libraries under Win32.
4845 [Steve Henson]
4846
4847 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
4848 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
4849 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
4850 [Steve Henson]
4851
4852 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
4853 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
4854 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
4855 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
4856 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
4857 internally such as S/MIME.
4858
4859 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
4860 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
4861 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
4862
4863 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
4864 applications.
4865 [Steve Henson]
4866
4867 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
4868 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
4869 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
4870 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
4871
4872 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
4873
4874 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
4875
4876 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
4877 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
4878 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
4879 handling.
4880 [Steve Henson]
4881
4882 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
4883 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
4884 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
4885 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
4886 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
4887 a window system and the like.
4888 [Richard Levitte]
4889
4890 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
4891 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
4892 [Geoff]
4893
4894 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
4895 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
4896 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
4897 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
4898 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
4899 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
4900 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
4901 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
4902 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
4903 ENGINE structure.
4904 [Geoff]
4905
4906 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
4907 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
4908 tag cache.
4909 [Steve Henson]
4910
4911 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
4912 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
4913 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
4914 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
4915 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
4916 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
4917 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
4918 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
4919 [Geoff]
4920
4921 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
4922 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
4923 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
4924 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
4925 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
4926 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
4927 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
4928 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
4929 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
4930 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
4931 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
4932 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
4933 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
4934 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
4935 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
4936 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
4937 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
4938 [Geoff]
4939
4940 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
4941 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
4942 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
4943 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
4944 internal engine_int.h header.
4945 [Geoff]
4946
4947 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
4948 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
4949 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
4950 modify their own ones).
4951 [Geoff]
4952
4953 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
4954 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
4955 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
4956 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
4957 later on via ctrl() commands.
4958 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
4959 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
4960 structural references.
4961 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
4962 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
4963 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
4964 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
4965 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
4966 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
4967 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
4968 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
4969 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
4970 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
4971 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
4972 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
4973 [Geoff]
4974
4975 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
4976 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
4977 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
4978 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
4979 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
4980 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
4981 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
4982 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
4983 [Bodo Moeller]
4984
4985 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
4986 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
4987 [Steve Henson]
4988
4989 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
4990 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
4991 [Steve Henson]
4992
4993 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
4994 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
4995 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
4996 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
4997 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
4998 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
4999 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5000 [Steve Henson]
5001
5002 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5003 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5004 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5005 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5006 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5007
5008 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5009 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5010 generator).
5011 [Bodo Moeller]
5012
5013 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5014
5015 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5016 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5017 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5018
5019 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5020 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5021
5022 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5023 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5024 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5025
5026 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5027 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5028
5029 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5030 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5031
5032 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5033
5034 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5035 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5036 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5037 [Bodo Moeller]
5038
5039 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5040 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5041 [Richard Levitte]
5042
5043 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5044 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5045 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5046 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5047 is 40 of more characters long.
5048 [Steve Henson]
5049
5050 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5051 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5052 pointers.
5053 [Steve Henson]
5054
5055 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5056 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5057 [Bodo Moeller]
5058
5059 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5060 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5061 might.
5062 [Steve Henson]
5063
5064 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5065
5066 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5067 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5068
5069 ASN1 error codes
5070 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5071 ...
5072 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5073 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5074 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5075 ...
5076 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5077 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5078
5079 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5080 [Bodo Moeller]
5081
5082 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5083 suffices.
5084 [Bodo Moeller]
5085
5086 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5087 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5088 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5089 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5090 and
5091 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5092
5093 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5094 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5095
5096 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5097 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5098 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5099 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5100 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5101 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5102
5103 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5104 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5105
5106 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5107 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5108
5109 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5110 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5111
5112 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5113 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5114 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5115 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5116
5117 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5118 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5119
5120 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5121 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5122
5123 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5124 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5125 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5126 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5127 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5128 [Richard Levitte]
5129
5130 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5131 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5132 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5133 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5134 [Steve Henson]
5135
5136 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5137 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5138 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5139 trust settings.
5140 [Steve Henson]
5141
5142 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5143 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5144 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5145 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5146 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5147 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5148 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5149 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5150 ocsp utility.
5151 [Steve Henson]
5152
5153 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5154 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5155 [Steve Henson]
5156
5157 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5158 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5159 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5160 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5161 [Steve Henson]
5162
5163 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5164 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5165 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5166 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5167 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5168 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5169 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5170 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5171 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5172 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5173 [Steve Henson]
5174
5175 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5176 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5177 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5178 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5179 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5180 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5181 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5182 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5183
5184 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5185 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5186 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5187 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5188 [Richard Levitte]
5189
5190 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5191 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5192 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5193 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5194 opensslconf.h.
5195 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5196 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5197 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5198 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5199 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5200 what is available.
5201 [Richard Levitte]
5202
5203 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5204 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5205 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5206 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5207 auto incremented.
5208 [Steve Henson]
5209
5210 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5211 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5212 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5213 [Steve Henson]
5214
5215 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5216 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5217 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5218 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5219 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5220 [Steve Henson]
5221
5222 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5223 [Steve Henson]
5224
5225 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5226 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5227 option to ocsp utility.
5228 [Steve Henson]
5229
5230 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5231 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5232 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5233 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5234 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5235 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5236 the request is nonce-less.
5237 [Steve Henson]
5238
5239 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5240 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5241 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5242 [Bodo Moeller]
5243
5244 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5245 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5246 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5247 [Steve Henson]
5248
5249 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5250 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5251 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5252 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5253 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5254 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5255
5256 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5257 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5258 appear to exist.
5259 [Steve Henson]
5260
5261 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5262 additional certificates supplied.
5263 [Steve Henson]
5264
5265 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5266 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5267 signature against.
5268 [Richard Levitte]
5269
5270 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5271 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5272 AES OIDs.
5273
5274 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5275 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5276 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5277 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5278 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5279 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5280 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5281 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5282 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5283
5284 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5285 request to response.
5286 [Steve Henson]
5287
5288 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5289 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5290 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5291 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5292 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5293 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5294 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5295 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5296 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5297 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5298 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5299 [Steve Henson]
5300
5301 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5302 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5303 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5304 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5305 [Steve Henson]
5306
5307 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5308 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5309
5310 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5311 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5312 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5313 [Steve Henson]
5314
5315 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5316 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5317 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5318 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5319 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5320
5321 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5322 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5323 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5324 [Steve Henson]
5325
5326 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5327 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5328 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5329 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5330 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5331 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5332 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5333 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5334
5335 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5336 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5337 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5338 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5339 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5340 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5341 [Steve Henson]
5342
5343 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5344 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5345 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5346 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5347 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5348 printout format cleaned up.
5349 [Steve Henson]
5350
5351 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5352 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5353 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5354 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5355 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5356 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5357 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5358 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5359 [Steve Henson]
5360
5361 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5362 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5363 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5364 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5365 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5366 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5367 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5368 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5369 [Steve Henson]
5370
5371 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5372 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5373 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5374 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5375 section to use.
5376 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5377
5378 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5379 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5380 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5381 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5382 [Steve Henson]
5383
5384 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5385 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5386 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5387 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5388 in the index file.
5389 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5390
5391 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5392 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5393 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5394 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5395
5396 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5397 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5398
5399 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5400 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5401 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5402 [Steve Henson]
5403
5404 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5405 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5406 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5407 [Bodo Moeller]
5408
5409 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5410 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5411 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5412 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5413 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5414 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5415 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5416 functions are provided:
5417
5418 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5419 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5420 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5421 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5422
5423 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5424 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5425 extended allocation function is enabled.
5426 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5427 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5428 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5429
5430 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5431 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5432 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5433 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5434 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5435 [Geoff Thorpe]
5436
5437 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5438 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5439 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5440 be queried.
5441 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5442 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5443 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5444 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5445
5446 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5447 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5448 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5449 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5450 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5451 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5452 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5453 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5454 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5455 [Richard Levitte]
5456
5457 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5458 provide utility functions which an application needing
5459 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5460 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5461 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5462
5463 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5464 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5465 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5466 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5467 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5468 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5469 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5470 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5471 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5472
5473 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5474 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5475 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5476 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5477 [Steve Henson]
5478
5479 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5480 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5481 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5482 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5483 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5484 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5485 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5486 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5487 will be added elsewhere.
5488 [Steve Henson]
5489
5490 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5491 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5492 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5493 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5494 [Steve Henson]
5495
5496 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5497 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5498 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5499 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5500 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5501 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5502 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5503 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5504 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5505 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5506 to produce the required SET OF.
5507 [Steve Henson]
5508
5509 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5510 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5511 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5512 [Richard Levitte]
5513
5514 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5515 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5516 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5517 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5518 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5519 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5520 [Steve Henson]
5521
5522 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5523 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5524 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5525 [Steve Henson]
5526
5527 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5528 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5529 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5530 [Richard Levitte]
5531
5532 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5533 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5534 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5535 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5536 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5537 [Steve Henson]
5538
5539 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5540 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5541 [Steve Henson]
5542
5543 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5544 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5545 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5546 certifcates and CRLs.
5547 [Steve Henson]
5548
5549 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5550 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5551 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5552 [Steve Henson]
5553
5554 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5555 entries for variables.
5556 [Steve Henson]
5557
5558 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5559 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5560 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5561 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5562 [Bodo Moeller]
5563
5564 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5565 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5566 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5567 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5568 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5569 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5570 [Bodo Moeller]
5571
5572 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5573 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5574
5575 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5576 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5577 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5578 [Steve Henson]
5579
5580 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5581 print routines.
5582 [Steve Henson]
5583
5584 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5585 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5586 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5587 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5588 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5589 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5590 [Steve Henson]
5591
5592 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5593 [Steve Henson]
5594
5595 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5596 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5597 for now but they will eventually go away.
5598 [Steve Henson]
5599
5600 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
5601 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5602 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5603 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5604 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5605 has also been converted to the new form.
5606 [Steve Henson]
5607
5608 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
5609 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5610 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5611 for negative moduli.
5612 [Bodo Moeller]
5613
5614 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
5615 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5616 [Bodo Moeller]
5617
5618 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
5619 set.
5620 [Bodo Moeller]
5621
5622 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
5623 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5624 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5625 type-specific callbacks.
5626 [Geoff Thorpe]
5627
5628 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
5629 RFC 2712.
5630 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5631 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
5632
5633 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
5634 in sections depending on the subject.
5635 [Richard Levitte]
5636
5637 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
5638 Windows.
5639 [Richard Levitte]
5640
5641 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
5642 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
5643 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
5644 be handled deterministically).
5645 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5646
5647 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
5648 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
5649 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
5650 [Bodo Moeller]
5651
5652 *) New function BN_kronecker.
5653 [Bodo Moeller]
5654
5655 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
5656 positive unless both parameters are zero.
5657 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
5658 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
5659 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
5660 [Bodo Moeller]
5661
5662 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
5663 sign of the number in question.
5664
5665 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
5666
5667 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
5668 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
5669 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
5670 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
5671 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
5672 [Bodo Moeller]
5673
5674 *) New function BN_swap.
5675 [Bodo Moeller]
5676
5677 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
5678 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
5679 results on negative inputs.
5680 [Bodo Moeller]
5681
5682 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
5683 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
5684 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
5685 [Bodo Moeller]
5686
5687 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
5688 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
5689 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
5690 and add new functions:
5691
5692 BN_nnmod
5693 BN_mod_sqr
5694 BN_mod_add
5695 BN_mod_add_quick
5696 BN_mod_sub
5697 BN_mod_sub_quick
5698 BN_mod_lshift1
5699 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
5700 BN_mod_lshift
5701 BN_mod_lshift_quick
5702
5703 These functions always generate non-negative results.
5704
5705 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
5706 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
5707
5708 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
5709 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
5710 be reduced modulo m.
5711 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5712
5713 #if 0
5714 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
5715 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
5716 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
5717
5718 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5719 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5720 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5721 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5722 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5723 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5724 differing sizes.
5725 [Richard Levitte]
5726 #endif
5727
5728 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
5729 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
5730 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
5731 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
5732 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
5733
5734 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
5735 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
5736 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
5737 cause any problems.
5738 [Bodo Moeller]
5739
5740 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
5741 [Richard Levitte]
5742
5743 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
5744 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
5745 [Richard Levitte]
5746
5747 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
5748 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
5749 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
5750 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
5751 time)
5752 [Richard Levitte]
5753
5754 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
5755 [Richard Levitte]
5756
5757 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
5758 [Richard Levitte]
5759
5760 *) Add the following functions:
5761
5762 ENGINE_load_cswift()
5763 ENGINE_load_chil()
5764 ENGINE_load_atalla()
5765 ENGINE_load_nuron()
5766 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
5767
5768 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
5769 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
5770 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
5771 libraries unless it's really needed.
5772
5773 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
5774 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
5775 declarations (they differed!).
5776 [Richard Levitte]
5777
5778 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
5779 [Richard Levitte]
5780
5781 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
5782 [Richard Levitte]
5783
5784 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
5785 [Bodo Moeller]
5786
5787 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
5788 identity, and test if they are actually available.
5789 [Richard Levitte]
5790
5791 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
5792 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
5793 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5794
5795 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
5796 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
5797 [Richard Levitte]
5798
5799 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
5800 [Richard Levitte]
5801
5802 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
5803 [Richard Levitte]
5804
5805 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
5806 [Ben Laurie]
5807
5808 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
5809 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
5810 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
5811
5812 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
5813 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
5814 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
5815 different shared library filenames on each system.
5816 [Geoff Thorpe]
5817
5818 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
5819 [Richard Levitte]
5820
5821 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
5822 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
5823 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
5824 of two sections.
5825 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
5826
5827 *) NCONF changes.
5828 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
5829 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
5830 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
5831 binary backward compatibility.
5832 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
5833 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
5834 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
5835 LDAP server.
5836 [Richard Levitte]
5837
5838 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
5839 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
5840 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
5841 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
5842 this case.
5843 [Steve Henson]
5844
5845 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
5846 [Ben Laurie]
5847
5848 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
5849 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
5850 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
5851 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
5852 set.
5853 [Steve Henson]
5854
5855 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
5856 [Richard Levitte]
5857
5858 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
5859
5860 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5861 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5862 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5863
5864 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
5865
5866 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
5867
5868 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
5869 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
5870 [Steve Henson]
5871
5872 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
5873
5874 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5875
5876 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
5877 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
5878
5879 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5880 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
5881
5882 [Steve Henson]
5883
5884 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5885 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5886 specifications.
5887 [Steve Henson]
5888
5889 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5890 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5891 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
5892 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
5893
5894 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
5895 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5896 [Richard Levitte]
5897
5898 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
5899
5900 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5901 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5902 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5903 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5904 [Bodo Moeller]
5905
5906 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5907 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5908 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5909 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5910 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5911
5912 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5913 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5914 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5915 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5916 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5917 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5918 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5919 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5920 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5921 [Bodo Moeller]
5922
5923 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
5924
5925 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5926 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
5927 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5928 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
5929 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
5930
5931 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
5932 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
5933 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
5934
5935 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
5936
5937 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
5938 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
5939 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
5940 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
5941 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
5942 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
5943 [Geoff Thorpe]
5944
5945 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
5946 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
5947 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
5948 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
5949 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
5950 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5951
5952 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
5953 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
5954 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
5955
5956 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
5957 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
5958 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
5959 EVP_cleanup().
5960 [Richard Levitte]
5961
5962 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
5963 being properly terminated.
5964 [Richard Levitte]
5965
5966 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
5967 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
5968 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
5969 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
5970
5971 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
5972 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
5973 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
5974 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
5975 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
5976 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
5977 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
5978 change.
5979 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
5980
5981 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
5982 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
5983 [Bodo Moeller]
5984
5985 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
5986 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
5987 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
5988 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
5989 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
5990 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
5991 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
5992 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
5993
5994 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
5995 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
5996 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
5997 (see [openssl.org #212]).
5998 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5999
6000 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6001 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6002 [Steve Henson]
6003
6004 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6005
6006 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6007 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6008 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6009
6010 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6011
6012 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6013 and get fix the header length calculation.
6014 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6015 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6016 Steve Henson]
6017
6018 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6019 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6020 assertions could call abort()).
6021 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6022
6023 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6024
6025 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6026 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6027 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6028 supplied buffer.
6029 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6030
6031 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6032 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6033 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6034 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6035
6036 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6037 [Nils Larsch]
6038
6039 *) New option
6040 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6041 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6042 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6043
6044 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6045 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6046 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6047 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6048 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6049 applications.
6050 [Bodo Moeller]
6051
6052 *) Changes in security patch:
6053
6054 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6055 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6056 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6057 F30602-01-2-0537.
6058
6059 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6060 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6061 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6062 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6063 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6064
6065 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6066 happen in practice.
6067 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6068
6069 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6070 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6071 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6072
6073 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6074 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6075 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6076
6077 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6078 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6079 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6080
6081 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6082
6083 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6084 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6085 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6086
6087 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6088 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6089
6090 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6091 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6092 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6093 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6094 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6095 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6096 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6097
6098 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6099 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6100 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6101 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6102 [Bodo Moeller]
6103
6104 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6105 [Bodo Moeller]
6106
6107 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6108 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6109 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6110 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6111 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6112 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6113
6114 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6115 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6116 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6117 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6118 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6119 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6120
6121 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6122 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6123 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6124 BN_generate_prime().)
6125
6126 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6127 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6128 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6129 better.
6130 [Bodo Moeller]
6131
6132 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6133 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6134 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6135
6136 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6137 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6138 when using non-blocking I/O.
6139 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6140
6141 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6142 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6143
6144 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6145 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6146 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6147
6148 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6149 configuration for the versions before that.
6150 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6151
6152 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6153 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6154 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6155 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6156 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6157
6158 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6159 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6160 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6161 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6162
6163 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6164 value is 0.
6165 [Richard Levitte]
6166
6167 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6168 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6169 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6170
6171 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6172 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6173
6174 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6175 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6176 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6177 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6178 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6179 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6180 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6181 session cache.
6182
6183 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6184 using a local variable.
6185 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6186
6187 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6188 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6189 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6190
6191 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6192 [Richard Levitte]
6193
6194 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6195 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6196
6197 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6198 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6199 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6200
6201 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6202
6203 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6204 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6205 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6206 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6207 [Bodo Moeller]
6208
6209 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6210 present.
6211 [Steve Henson]
6212
6213 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6214 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6215 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6216 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6217 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6218
6219 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6220 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6221 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6222
6223 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6224 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6225 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6226
6227 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6228 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6229 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6230 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6231
6232 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6233 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6234 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6235 modules).
6236 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6237
6238 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6239 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6240 from 0.9.7.
6241 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6242
6243 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6244 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6245 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6246 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6247
6248 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6249 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6250 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6251 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6252
6253 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6254 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6255
6256 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6257 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6258 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6259 [Bodo Moeller]
6260
6261 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6262 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6263 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6264 become invalid.
6265 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6266
6267 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6268 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6269 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6270 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6271 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6272 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6273 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6274 [Bodo Moeller]
6275
6276 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6277 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6278 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6279 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6280
6281 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6282 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6283 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6284 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6285 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6286 the client will at least see that alert.
6287 [Bodo Moeller]
6288
6289 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6290 correctly.
6291 [Bodo Moeller]
6292
6293 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6294 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6295 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6296
6297 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6298 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6299 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6300 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6301 HelloRequest.
6302
6303 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6304 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6305 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6306
6307 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6308 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6309 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6310 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6311 may leak via logfiles.)
6312
6313 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6314 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6315 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6316 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6317 the legal range.
6318 [Bodo Moeller]
6319
6320 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6321 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6322 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6323
6324 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6325 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6326 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6327 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6328 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6329 [Bodo Moeller]
6330
6331 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6332 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6333
6334 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6335 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6336 followed by modular reduction.
6337 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6338
6339 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6340 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6341 [Bodo Moeller]
6342
6343 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6344 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6345 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6346 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6347 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6348
6349 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6350 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6351
6352 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6353 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6354 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6355
6356 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6357 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6358 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6359 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6360 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6361 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6362 automatically.
6363 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6364
6365 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6366 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6367 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6368 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6369 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6370
6371 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6372 [Andy Polyakov]
6373
6374 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6375 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6376 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6377 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6378 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6379 to allow the necessary settings.
6380 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6381
6382 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6383 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6384 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6385 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6386 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6387
6388 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6389 dh->length and always used
6390
6391 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6392
6393 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6394 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6395 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6396 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6397 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6398 dh->length.
6399
6400 So switch back to
6401
6402 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6403
6404 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6405 otherwise.
6406 [Bodo Moeller]
6407
6408 *) In
6409
6410 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6411 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6412 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6413 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6414
6415 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6416 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6417 always reject numbers >= n.
6418 [Bodo Moeller]
6419
6420 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6421 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6422 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6423 variable) is not atomic.
6424 [Bodo Moeller]
6425
6426 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6427 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6428 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6429 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6430
6431 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6432 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6433
6434 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6435 little-endian MIPS.
6436 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6437
6438 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6439 [Richard Levitte]
6440
6441 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6442
6443 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6444 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6445 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6446 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6447 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6448 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6449 to traverse all of 'state'.
6450
6451 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6452 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6453 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6454
6455 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6456 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6457
6458 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6459 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6460 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6461 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6462 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6463 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6464 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6465 further strengthens the PRNG.
6466 [Bodo Moeller]
6467
6468 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6469 [Andy Polyakov]
6470
6471 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6472 an error message in this case.
6473 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6474
6475 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6476 [Steve Henson]
6477
6478 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6479 positive and less than q.
6480 [Bodo Moeller]
6481
6482 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6483 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6484 that itself.
6485 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6486
6487 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6488 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6489 [Bodo Moeller]
6490
6491 *) Fix OAEP check.
6492 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6493
6494 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6495 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6496 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6497 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6498 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6499 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6500 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6501 paper.)
6502
6503 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6504 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6505 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6506 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6507
6508 Both problems are now fixed.
6509 [Bodo Moeller]
6510
6511 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6512 (previously it was 1024).
6513 [Bodo Moeller]
6514
6515 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6516 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6517 [Steve Henson]
6518
6519 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6520 [Steve Henson]
6521
6522 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6523 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6524 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6525 [Steve Henson]
6526
6527 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6528 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6529 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6530 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6531 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6532 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6533 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6534 environment variables.
6535
6536 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6537 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6538 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6539 [Bodo Moeller]
6540
6541 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6542 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6543 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6544 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6545 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6546 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6547 [Bodo Moeller]
6548
6549 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6550 versions of 'test'.
6551 [Bodo Moeller]
6552
6553 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6554
6555 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6556 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6557
6558 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6559 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6560 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6561 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6562 CygWin.
6563 [Richard Levitte]
6564
6565 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6566 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6567 amount of data available.
6568 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6569 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6570
6571 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6572 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6573 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6574 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6575 [Bodo Moeller]
6576
6577 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6578 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6579 and UnixWare.
6580 [Richard Levitte]
6581
6582 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6583 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6584 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6585 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6586 [Ulf Moeller]
6587
6588 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6589 [Andy Polyakov]
6590
6591 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6592 [Richard Levitte]
6593
6594 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6595 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6596 [Steve Henson]
6597 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6598
6599 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6600 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6601 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6602 (but broken) behaviour.
6603 [Steve Henson]
6604
6605 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6606 it when found.
6607 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6608
6609 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6610 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6611 [Bodo Moeller]
6612
6613 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6614 did not exist.
6615 [Bodo Moeller]
6616
6617 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6618 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6619
6620 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6621 [Richard Levitte]
6622
6623 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6624 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6625 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6626
6627 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6628 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6629 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6630 [Steve Henson]
6631
6632 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6633 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6634 [Ulf Moeller]
6635
6636 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6637 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6638
6639 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6640
6641 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6642
6643 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6644 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6645 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6646 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6647 [Bodo Moeller]
6648
6649 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6650 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6651
6652 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
6653 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
6654 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6655
6656 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
6657 was empty.
6658 [Steve Henson]
6659 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6660
6661 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
6662 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
6663 but the code is actually correct.
6664 [Steve Henson]
6665
6666 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
6667 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
6668 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
6669 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
6670 and leaves the highest bit random.
6671 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6672
6673 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
6674 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
6675 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
6676 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
6677 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
6678 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
6679 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
6680 [Bodo Moeller]
6681
6682 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
6683 [Ulf Moeller]
6684
6685 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
6686 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
6687 [Steve Henson]
6688
6689 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
6690 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
6691 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
6692 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
6693 headers.
6694 [Richard Levitte]
6695
6696 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
6697 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
6698 and break the signature.
6699 [Steve Henson]
6700 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6701
6702 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
6703 DH ciphersuites.
6704 [Steve Henson]
6705
6706 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
6707 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
6708 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
6709 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
6710 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
6711 [Bodo Moeller]
6712
6713 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
6714 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6715
6716 *) ./config script fixes.
6717 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
6718
6719 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
6720 [Bodo Moeller]
6721
6722 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
6723 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
6724 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
6725 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
6726 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
6727
6728 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
6729 call failed, free the DSA structure.
6730 [Bodo Moeller]
6731
6732 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
6733 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
6734 [Steve Henson]
6735
6736 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
6737 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
6738 when writing a 32767 byte record.
6739 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
6740
6741 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
6742 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
6743
6744 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
6745 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
6746 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
6747 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
6748 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
6749
6750 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
6751 [Bodo Moeller]
6752
6753 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
6754 [Ulf Möller]
6755
6756 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
6757 [Ulf Möller]
6758
6759 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
6760 [Bodo Moeller]
6761
6762 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
6763 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
6764 [Bodo Moeller]
6765
6766 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
6767 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
6768 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
6769 result of the server certificate verification.)
6770 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6771
6772 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
6773 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
6774 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
6775 [Bodo Moeller]
6776
6777 *) Fix SSL_peek:
6778 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
6779 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
6780 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
6781 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
6782 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
6783 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
6784 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
6785 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
6786 [Bodo Moeller]
6787
6788 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
6789 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
6790 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
6791 happening the other way round.
6792 [Geoff Thorpe]
6793
6794 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
6795 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
6796 [Bodo Moeller]
6797
6798 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
6799 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
6800 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
6801 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
6802 [Richard Levitte]
6803
6804 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
6805 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
6806
6807 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
6808
6809 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
6810 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
6811 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
6812 that.
6813
6814 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
6815
6816 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
6817
6818 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
6819 static ones.
6820 [Richard Levitte]
6821
6822 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
6823
6824 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
6825 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
6826 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
6827 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
6828 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
6829
6830 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
6831 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
6832 matter what.
6833 [Richard Levitte]
6834
6835 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
6836 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6837
6838 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
6839
6840 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
6841 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
6842 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
6843 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
6844 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
6845 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
6846 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
6847 by the Finished messages.
6848 [Bodo Moeller]
6849
6850 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
6851 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
6852
6853 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
6854 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
6855 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
6856 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
6857 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
6858 appropriately.
6859 [Steve Henson]
6860
6861 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
6862 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
6863 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
6864 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
6865 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
6866 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
6867 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
6868 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
6869 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
6870 together.
6871 [Steve Henson]
6872
6873 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
6874 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
6875 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
6876 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
6877
6878 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
6879 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
6880 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
6881 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
6882 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
6883 the answer.
6884
6885 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
6886 been tested well enough.
6887 [Richard Levitte]
6888
6889 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
6890 it can return incorrect results.
6891 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
6892 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
6893 [Bodo Moeller]
6894
6895 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
6896 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
6897 include zero length content when signing messages.
6898 [Steve Henson]
6899
6900 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
6901 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
6902 [Bodo Möller]
6903
6904 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
6905 [Richard Levitte]
6906
6907 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
6908 wrong sign.
6909 [Ulf Möller]
6910
6911 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
6912 packages. The default package contains applications, application
6913 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
6914 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
6915 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
6916 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
6917 [Richard Levitte]
6918
6919 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
6920 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6921
6922 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
6923 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
6924
6925 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
6926 random number < q in the DSA library.
6927 [Ulf Möller]
6928
6929 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
6930 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
6931 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
6932 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
6933 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
6934 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
6935 just makes things more complicated.)
6936 [Bodo Moeller]
6937
6938 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
6939 from EGD.
6940 [Ben Laurie]
6941
6942 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
6943 work better on such systems.
6944 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
6945
6946 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
6947 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
6948 keyid to the certificates aux info.
6949 [Steve Henson]
6950
6951 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
6952 if there was more than one signature.
6953 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
6954
6955 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
6956 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
6957 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
6958 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
6959 [Richard Levitte]
6960
6961 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
6962 rather than always using the current time.
6963 [Steve Henson]
6964
6965 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
6966 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
6967 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
6968 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
6969 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
6970 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
6971
6972 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
6973 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
6974
6975 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
6976
6977 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
6978 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
6979 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
6980 the same hash value.
6981
6982 As a result various functions (which were all internal
6983 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
6984 structure. This will break anything that messed round
6985 with X509_STORE internally.
6986
6987 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
6988 exact match, rather than just subject name.
6989
6990 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
6991 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
6992 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
6993 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
6994 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
6995 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
6996 entirely (maybe later...).
6997
6998 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
6999
7000 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7001 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7002 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7003 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7004 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7005 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7006 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7007 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7008
7009 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7010 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7011
7012 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7013 to customise the verify behaviour.
7014 [Steve Henson]
7015
7016 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7017 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7018 [Steve Henson]
7019
7020 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7021 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7022 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7023 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7024 request is improperly encoded.
7025 [Steve Henson]
7026
7027 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7028 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7029 BIO_write(b, ...).
7030
7031 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7032 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7033
7034 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7035 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7036 words set to zero.)
7037 [Bodo Moeller]
7038
7039 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7040 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7041 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7042 [Bodo Moeller]
7043
7044 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7045 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7046 BIO/fp routines also added.
7047 [Steve Henson]
7048
7049 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7050 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7051
7052 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7053 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7054 demos/state_machine.
7055 [Ben Laurie]
7056
7057 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7058 generation and verification.
7059 [Steve Henson]
7060
7061 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7062 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7063 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7064 encode and decode it manually.
7065 [Steve Henson]
7066
7067 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7068 compile under VC++.
7069 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7070
7071 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7072 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7073 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7074 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7075
7076 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7077 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7078 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7079 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7080 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7081 [Steve Henson]
7082
7083 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7084 [Richard Levitte]
7085
7086 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7087 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7088 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7089
7090 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7091 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7092 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7093 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7094 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7095 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7096 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7097 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7098
7099 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7100 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7101
7102 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7103
7104 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7105 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7106 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7107
7108 [Richard Levitte]
7109
7110 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7111 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7112 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7113 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7114 [Richard Levitte]
7115
7116 *) MD4 implemented.
7117 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7118
7119 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7120 [Richard Levitte]
7121
7122 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7123 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7124 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7125 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7126 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7127 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7128 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7129 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7130 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7131 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7132 short or long names are found.
7133 [Steve Henson]
7134
7135 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7136 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7137
7138 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7139 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7140 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7141 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7142
7143 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7144 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7145 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7146 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7147 [Bodo Moeller]
7148
7149 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7150 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7151 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7152 [Richard Levitte]
7153
7154 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7155 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7156 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7157 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7158 to allow the various flags to be set.
7159 [Steve Henson]
7160
7161 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7162 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7163 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7164 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7165 dates to be checked.
7166 [Steve Henson]
7167
7168 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7169 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7170 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7171 [Steve Henson]
7172
7173 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7174 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7175 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7176 [Steve Henson]
7177
7178 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7179 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7180 [Bodo Moeller]
7181
7182 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7183 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7184 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7185 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7186 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7187 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7188 [Richard Levitte]
7189
7190 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7191 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7192 Random Numbers.
7193 [Ulf Möller]
7194
7195 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7196 DSA key.
7197 [Steve Henson]
7198
7199 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7200 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7201 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7202 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7203 form signing output easier to verify.
7204 [Steve Henson]
7205
7206 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7207 [Steve Henson]
7208
7209 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7210 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7211 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7212 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7213 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7214 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7215 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7216 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7217 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7218 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7219 [Steve Henson]
7220
7221 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7222
7223 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7224 the syntax given in objects.README.
7225 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7226 obj_mac.h.
7227 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7228 obj_mac.h.
7229
7230 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7231 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7232 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7233 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7234 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7235 consistent name changes.
7236 [Richard Levitte]
7237
7238 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7239 [Bodo Moeller]
7240
7241 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7242 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7243 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7244 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7245 [Richard Levitte]
7246
7247 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7248 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7249 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7250 of safestack.h .
7251 [Steve Henson]
7252
7253 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7254 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7255 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7256 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7257 [Steve Henson]
7258
7259 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7260 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7261 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7262 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7263 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7264 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7265 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7266 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7267 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7268 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7269 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7270 [Steve Henson]
7271
7272 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7273 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7274 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7275 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7276 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7277 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7278 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7279 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7280 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7281 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7282 [Steve Henson]
7283
7284 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7285 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7286 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7287 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7288
7289 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7290 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7291 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7292 omit any duplicate addresses.
7293 [Steve Henson]
7294
7295 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7296 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7297 [Bodo Moeller]
7298
7299 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7300 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7301 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7302 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7303 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7304 [Bodo Moeller]
7305
7306 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7307 software:
7308 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7309 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7310 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7311 Free => OPENSSL_free
7312 [Richard Levitte]
7313
7314 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7315 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7316 [Bodo Moeller]
7317
7318 *) CygWin32 support.
7319 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7320
7321 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7322 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7323 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7324 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7325 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7326 approach.
7327 [Geoff Thorpe]
7328
7329 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7330 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7331 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7332 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7333 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7334 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7335 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7336 [Geoff Thorpe]
7337
7338 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7339 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7340 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7341 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7342 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7343 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7344 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7345 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7346 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7347 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7348 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7349 [Bodo Moeller]
7350
7351 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7352 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7353 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7354 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7355 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7356
7357 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7358 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7359 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7360 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7361 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7362
7363 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7364 ciphers.
7365
7366 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7367 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7368 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7369 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7370
7371 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7372
7373 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7374 of macros.
7375
7376 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7377 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7378 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7379 flags.
7380
7381 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7382 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7383 any installed hardware versions can.
7384 [Steve Henson]
7385
7386 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7387 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7388 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7389 number.
7390 [Bodo Moeller]
7391
7392 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7393 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7394 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7395 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7396 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7397
7398 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7399 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7400 [Steve Henson]
7401
7402 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7403 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7404 [Richard Levitte]
7405
7406 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7407 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7408 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7409 features.
7410 [Steve Henson]
7411
7412 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7413 [Ulf Möller]
7414
7415 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7416 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7417 but no ssl client purpose.
7418 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7419
7420 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7421 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7422 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7423 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7424 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7425 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7426 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7427 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7428 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7429 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7430 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7431 [Steve Henson]
7432
7433 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7434 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7435 be obtained from the error queue.
7436 [Bodo Moeller]
7437
7438 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7439 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7440 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7441 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7442 [Bodo Moeller]
7443
7444 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7445 [Ulf Möller]
7446
7447 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7448 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7449 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7450 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7451 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7452 [Geoff Thorpe]
7453
7454 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7455 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7456 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7457 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7458 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7459 [Geoff Thorpe]
7460
7461 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7462 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7463 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7464 may not be NULL.
7465 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7466
7467 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7468 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7469 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7470 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7471 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7472 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7473 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7474 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7475 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7476 or "the configuration storage API"...
7477
7478 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7479
7480 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7481 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7482
7483 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7484
7485 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7486
7487 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7488 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7489 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7490 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7491 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7492 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7493 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7494
7495 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7496 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7497 [Richard Levitte]
7498
7499 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7500 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7501 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7502 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7503 [Bodo Moeller]
7504
7505 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7506 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7507 them in a portable way.
7508 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7509
7510 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7511
7512 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7513
7514 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7515 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7516
7517 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7518 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7519 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7520 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7521
7522 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7523 was larger than the MD block size.
7524 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7525
7526 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7527 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7528 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7529 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7530 components.
7531 [Steve Henson]
7532
7533 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7534 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7535 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7536
7537 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7538 discouraged.
7539 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7540
7541 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7542 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7543 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7544 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7545 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7546 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7547
7548 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7549 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7550
7551 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7552 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7553 [Bodo Moeller]
7554
7555 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7556 [Bodo Moeller]
7557
7558 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7559 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7560 its own key.
7561 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7562 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7563 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7564 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7565 [Bodo Moeller]
7566
7567 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7568 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7569 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7570 does not suppress any output.
7571 [Richard Levitte]
7572
7573 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7574 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7575 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7576 with all the associated security issues.
7577
7578 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7579 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7580 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7581 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7582 use the value in the default purpose.
7583 [Steve Henson]
7584
7585 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7586 and fix a memory leak.
7587 [Steve Henson]
7588
7589 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7590 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7591 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7592 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7593 [Bodo Moeller]
7594
7595 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7596 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7597 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7598 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7599 [Bodo Moeller]
7600
7601 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7602 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7603 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7604 [Bodo Moeller]
7605
7606 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7607 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7608 [Bodo Moeller]
7609
7610 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7611 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7612 which was free.
7613 [Steve Henson]
7614
7615 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7616 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7617 [Bodo Moeller]
7618
7619 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7620 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7621 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7622 [Bodo Moeller]
7623
7624 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7625 number generation fails.
7626 [Bodo Moeller]
7627
7628 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7629 [Bodo Moeller]
7630
7631 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
7632 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
7633
7634 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7635 [Ulf Möller]
7636
7637 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
7638 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
7639
7640 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
7641 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
7642
7643 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
7644
7645 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7646 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7647 [Steve Henson]
7648
7649 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7650 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7651
7652 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
7653 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
7654 [Ulf Möller]
7655
7656 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
7657 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
7658 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
7659 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
7660 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
7661 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
7662
7663 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
7664 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
7665 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
7666 for example.
7667 [Steve Henson]
7668
7669 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
7670 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
7671 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
7672 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
7673 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
7674 counter, some don't.)
7675 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
7676 counters or duplicate objects.
7677 [Steve Henson]
7678
7679 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
7680 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
7681 [Steve Henson]
7682
7683 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
7684 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
7685 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
7686
7687 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
7688 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
7689 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
7690 or -rand.
7691 [Ulf Möller]
7692
7693 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
7694 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
7695 [Steve Henson]
7696
7697 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
7698 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
7699 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
7700 cipher list.
7701 [Steve Henson]
7702
7703 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
7704 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
7705 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
7706 [Steve Henson]
7707
7708 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
7709 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
7710 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
7711 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
7712 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
7713 should work without changes.
7714 [Richard Levitte]
7715
7716 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
7717 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
7718 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
7719 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
7720 must be defined. E.g.,
7721 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
7722 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
7723 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
7724 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
7725
7726 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
7727 record layer.
7728 [Bodo Moeller]
7729
7730 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
7731 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
7732 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
7733 [Steve Henson]
7734
7735 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
7736 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
7737 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
7738 request header lines. Some software needs this.
7739 [Steve Henson]
7740
7741 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
7742 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
7743 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
7744 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
7745 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
7746 is prompted for as usual.
7747 [Steve Henson]
7748
7749 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
7750 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
7751 autodetect the card and use it if present.
7752 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
7753
7754 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
7755 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
7756 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
7757 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
7758 [Steve Henson]
7759
7760 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
7761 [Andy Polyakov]
7762
7763 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
7764 of seed file.
7765 [Steve Henson]
7766
7767 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
7768 [Bodo Moeller]
7769
7770 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
7771 [Steve Henson]
7772
7773 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
7774 bits.
7775 [Ulf Möller]
7776
7777 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
7778 [Ulf Möller]
7779
7780 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
7781 [Andy Polyakov]
7782
7783 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
7784 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
7785 [Ulf Möller]
7786
7787 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
7788 options to produce them.
7789 [Steve Henson]
7790
7791 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
7792 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
7793 [Ulf Möller]
7794
7795 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
7796 for p == 0.
7797 [Ulf Möller]
7798
7799 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
7800 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
7801 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
7802 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
7803 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
7804 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
7805 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
7806 [Steve Henson]
7807
7808 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
7809 [Steve Henson]
7810
7811 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
7812 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
7813 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
7814 [Bodo Moeller]
7815
7816 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
7817 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
7818
7819 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
7820 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
7821 [Ulf Möller]
7822
7823 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
7824 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
7825 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
7826 has already seen).
7827 [Bodo Moeller]
7828
7829 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
7830 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
7831
7832 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
7833 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
7834 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
7835 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
7836 generation becomes much faster.
7837
7838 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
7839 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
7840 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
7841 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
7842 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
7843 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
7844 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
7845 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
7846 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
7847 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
7848 [Bodo Moeller]
7849
7850 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
7851 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
7852 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
7853 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
7854 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
7855 trial division stage.
7856 [Bodo Moeller]
7857
7858 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
7859 as ASN1_TIME.
7860 [Steve Henson]
7861
7862 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
7863 [Steve Henson]
7864
7865 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
7866 [Ulf Möller]
7867
7868 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
7869 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
7870 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
7871 the comments.
7872 [Ulf Möller]
7873
7874 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
7875 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
7876 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
7877 [Bodo Moeller]
7878
7879 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
7880 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
7881 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
7882 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7883
7884 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
7885 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
7886 [Steve Henson]
7887
7888 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
7889 [Ulf Möller]
7890
7891 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
7892 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
7893 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
7894 Rabin-Miller iterations.
7895 [Ulf Möller]
7896
7897 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
7898 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
7899 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
7900 [Ulf Möller]
7901
7902 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
7903 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
7904 (instead of parameters) in future.
7905 [Steve Henson]
7906
7907 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
7908 when a new cipher list is set.
7909 [Steve Henson]
7910
7911 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
7912 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
7913 wrong.
7914
7915 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
7916 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
7917 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
7918
7919 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
7920 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
7921 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
7922 an error is flagged.
7923
7924 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
7925 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
7926 the readability was also increased :-)
7927 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7928
7929 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
7930 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
7931 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
7932 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
7933 as the root CA.
7934 [Steve Henson]
7935
7936 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
7937 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
7938 [Steve Henson]
7939
7940 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
7941 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
7942 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
7943 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
7944 instead.
7945
7946 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
7947 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
7948 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
7949 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
7950 because they handle more complex structures.)
7951 [Steve Henson]
7952
7953 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
7954 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
7955 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
7956 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7957
7958 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
7959 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
7960 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
7961 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
7962 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
7963 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
7964 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
7965 [Ulf Möller]
7966
7967 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
7968 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
7969 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
7970 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
7971 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
7972 [Bodo Moeller]
7973
7974 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
7975 [Bodo Moeller]
7976
7977 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
7978 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
7979 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
7980 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
7981 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
7982 to use this.
7983
7984 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
7985 code.
7986 [Steve Henson]
7987
7988 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
7989 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
7990 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
7991 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
7992 [Steve Henson]
7993
7994 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
7995 [Ulf Möller]
7996
7997 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
7998 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
7999 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8000 international characters are used.
8001
8002 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8003 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8004 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8005 in ASN1 order.
8006 [Steve Henson]
8007
8008 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8009 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8010 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8011 request.
8012
8013 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8014 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8015 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8016 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8017 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8018 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8019
8020 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8021 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8022 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8023 be handled by the string table functions.
8024
8025 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8026 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8027 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8028 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8029 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8030 types at all.
8031 [Steve Henson]
8032
8033 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8034 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8035 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8036 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8037 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8038
8039 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8040 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8041 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8042 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8043 [Bodo Moeller]
8044
8045 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8046 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8047 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8048 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8049 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8050 SHA1.
8051 [Andy Polyakov]
8052
8053 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8054 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8055 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8056 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8057 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8058 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8059 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8060 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8061
8062 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8063 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8064 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8065 [Steve Henson]
8066
8067 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8068 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8069 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8070 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8071 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8072 support to pkcs8 application.
8073 [Steve Henson]
8074
8075 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8076 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8077 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8078 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8079 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8080 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8081 [Bodo Moeller]
8082
8083 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8084 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8085 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8086 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8087 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8088 consistency.
8089 [Bodo Moeller]
8090
8091 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8092 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8093 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8094 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8095 example.
8096 [Steve Henson]
8097
8098 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8099 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8100 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8101 and any application specific purposes.
8102
8103 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8104 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8105 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8106 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8107 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8108 if the certificate is self signed.
8109 [Steve Henson]
8110
8111 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8112 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8113 [Steve Henson]
8114
8115 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8116 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8117 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8118 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8119 [Steve Henson]
8120
8121 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8122 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8123 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8124 Update documentation.
8125 [Steve Henson]
8126
8127 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8128 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8129 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8130 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8131 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8132 [Steve Henson]
8133
8134 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8135 for details.
8136 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8137
8138 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8139 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8140 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8141 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8142 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8143 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8144 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8145 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8146 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8147 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8148
8149 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8150
8151 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8152 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8153 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8154 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8155 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8156
8157 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8158 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8159 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8160 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8161 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8162 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8163 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8164 request additional information:
8165 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8166 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8167
8168 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8169 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8170 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8171 options.
8172
8173 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8174 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8175
8176 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8177 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8178 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8179
8180 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8181 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8182
8183 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8184 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8185 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8186 algorithm.
8187 [Steve Henson]
8188
8189 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8190 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8191 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8192
8193 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8194 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8195 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8196 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8197 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8198 included in OpenSSL.
8199 [Steve Henson]
8200
8201 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8202 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8203 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8204 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8205 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8206 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8207 [Bodo Moeller]
8208
8209 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8210 PKCS12 structure.
8211 [Steve Henson]
8212
8213 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8214 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8215 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8216 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8217 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8218 structure.
8219 [Steve Henson]
8220
8221 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8222 need initialising.
8223 [Steve Henson]
8224
8225 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8226 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8227 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8228 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8229 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8230 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8231 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8232 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8233 be maintained manually.
8234
8235 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8236 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8237 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8238 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8239 work because people forget to call this function]
8240 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8241 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8242 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8243 [Steve Henson]
8244
8245 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8246 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8247 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8248 should be discouraged from doing it.
8249 [Ben Laurie]
8250
8251 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8252 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8253 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8254 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8255 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8256 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8257 [Steve Henson]
8258
8259 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8260 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8261 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8262
8263 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8264 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8265 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8266
8267 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8268 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8269 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8270 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8271 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8272 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8273
8274 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8275 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8276 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8277
8278 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8279 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8280 and vice versa.
8281
8282 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8283 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8284 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8285 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8286 [Steve Henson]
8287
8288 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8289 [Steve Henson]
8290
8291 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8292 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8293 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8294 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8295 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8296 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8297 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8298 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8299 keys so we should be OK.
8300
8301 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8302 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8303 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8304 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8305 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8306 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8307 stay in the name of compatibility.
8308
8309 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8310 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8311 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8312
8313 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8314 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8315 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8316 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8317 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8318 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8319 supplied key).
8320 [Steve Henson]
8321
8322 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8323 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8324 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8325 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8326 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8327 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8328 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8329 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8330 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8331 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8332 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8333 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8334 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8335 [Steve Henson]
8336
8337 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8338 [Steve Henson]
8339
8340 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8341 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8342 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8343 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8344 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8345 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8346 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8347 openssl verify ss.pem
8348 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8349 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8350 is OK.
8351 [Steve Henson]
8352
8353 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8354 (and add it to external session representation).
8355 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8356 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8357 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8358 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8359 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8360 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8361 security holes.
8362 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8363
8364 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8365 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8366 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8367 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8368
8369 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8370 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8371 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8372 [Steve Henson]
8373
8374 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8375 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8376 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8377 code.
8378 [Steve Henson]
8379
8380 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8381 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8382 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8383
8384 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8385 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8386 certificate auxiliary information.
8387 [Steve Henson]
8388
8389 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8390 the 'enc' command.
8391 [Steve Henson]
8392
8393 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8394 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8395 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8396 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8397 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8398 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8399 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8400 [Richard Levitte]
8401
8402 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8403 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8404 [Steve Henson]
8405
8406 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8407 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8408 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8409 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8410 [Steve Henson]
8411
8412 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8413 [Steve Henson]
8414
8415 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8416 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8417 [Steve Henson]
8418
8419 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8420 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8421 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8422 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8423 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8424 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8425 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8426 using the new 'x509' options.
8427
8428 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8429 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8430 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8431 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8432 for all purposes.
8433 [Steve Henson]
8434
8435 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8436 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8437 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8438 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8439 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8440 [Mark Cox]
8441
8442 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8443 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8444 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8445 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8446 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8447 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8448 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8449 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8450 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8451 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8452 [Steve Henson]
8453
8454 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8455 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8456 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8457 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8458 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8459 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8460 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8461 [Steve Henson]
8462
8463 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8464 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8465 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8466 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8467 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8468 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8469 openssl.cnf for more info.
8470 [Steve Henson]
8471
8472 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8473 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8474 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8475 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8476 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8477 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8478 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8479 md should be large enough anyway.
8480 [Bodo Moeller]
8481
8482 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8483 for handling the random seed file.
8484
8485 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8486 ca,
8487 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8488 s_client,
8489 s_server,
8490 x509 (when signing).
8491 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8492 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8493 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8494
8495 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8496 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8497 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8498 that support '-rand'.
8499 [Bodo Moeller]
8500
8501 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8502 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8503 [Bodo Moeller]
8504
8505 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8506 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8507 [Bill Perry]
8508
8509 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8510 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8511 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8512 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8513 is suitable.
8514 [Steve Henson]
8515
8516 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8517 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8518 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8519 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8520 [Steve Henson]
8521
8522 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8523 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8524 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8525 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8526 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8527 print out all the purposes.
8528 [Steve Henson]
8529
8530 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8531 functions.
8532 [Steve Henson]
8533
8534 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8535 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8536 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8537 single function call.
8538 [Steve Henson]
8539
8540 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8541 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8542 [Andy Polyakov]
8543
8544 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8545 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8546 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8547 [Steve Henson]
8548
8549 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8550 when producing the local key id.
8551 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8552
8553 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8554 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8555 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8556 "server.pem".
8557 [Steve Henson]
8558
8559 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8560 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8561 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8562 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8563 [Steve Henson]
8564
8565 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8566 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8567 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8568 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8569
8570 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8571 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8572 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8573 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8574
8575 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8576 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8577 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8578 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8579 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8580 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8581 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8582 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8583 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8584 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8585 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8586 trivial: move one line.
8587 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8588
8589 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8590 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8591 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8592 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8593 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8594 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8595 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8596 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8597 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8598 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8599 with an event loop for example.
8600 [Steve Henson]
8601
8602 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8603 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8604 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8605 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8606 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8607 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8608 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8609 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8610 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8611 [Steve Henson]
8612
8613 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8614 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8615 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
8616 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
8617 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8618 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8619 [Steve Henson]
8620
8621 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8622 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8623 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8624 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8625
8626 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8627 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8628 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8629 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8630 key generation.
8631 [Steve Henson]
8632
8633 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
8634 (still largely untested)
8635 [Bodo Moeller]
8636
8637 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8638 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8639 [Steve Henson]
8640
8641 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8642 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8643 [Steve Henson]
8644
8645 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8646 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8647 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8648 [Bodo Moeller]
8649
8650 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8651 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8652 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
8653 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
8654 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
8655 [Steve Henson]
8656
8657 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
8658 [Andy Polyakov]
8659
8660 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
8661 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
8662 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
8663 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
8664 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
8665 in ca.
8666 [Steve Henson]
8667
8668 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
8669 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
8670 1.OU="Unit name 1"
8671 2.OU="Unit name 2"
8672 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
8673 [Steve Henson]
8674
8675 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
8676 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
8677 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
8678 are otherwise ignored at present.
8679 [Steve Henson]
8680
8681 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
8682 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
8683 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
8684 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
8685 copied until the next read.
8686 [Steve Henson]
8687
8688 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
8689 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
8690 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
8691 [Steve Henson]
8692
8693 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
8694 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
8695 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
8696 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
8697 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
8698 associated functions.
8699 [Steve Henson]
8700
8701 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
8702 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
8703 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
8704 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
8705 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
8706 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
8707 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
8708 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
8709 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
8710 memory BIOs.
8711 [Steve Henson]
8712
8713 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
8714 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
8715 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
8716 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
8717 [Bodo Moeller]
8718
8719 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
8720 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
8721 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
8722 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
8723 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
8724 functionality.
8725 [Steve Henson]
8726
8727 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
8728 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
8729 under Win32.
8730 [Steve Henson]
8731
8732 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
8733 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
8734 extensions to be obtained and added.
8735 [Steve Henson]
8736
8737 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
8738 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
8739 [Bodo Moeller]
8740
8741 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
8742
8743 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8744 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8745
8746 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
8747 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
8748
8749 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
8750 program.
8751 [Steve Henson]
8752
8753 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
8754 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
8755 DH parameters contain its length).
8756
8757 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
8758 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
8759 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
8760 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
8761 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
8762 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
8763 utter importance to use
8764 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8765 or
8766 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8767 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
8768 attacks may become possible!
8769 [Bodo Moeller]
8770
8771 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
8772 [Bodo Moeller]
8773
8774 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
8775 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
8776 [Steve Henson]
8777
8778 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
8779 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
8780 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
8781 or long name.
8782 [Steve Henson]
8783
8784 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
8785 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
8786 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
8787 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
8788 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
8789 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
8790 private key operations.
8791 [Steve Henson]
8792
8793 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
8794 [Andy Polyakov]
8795
8796 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
8797 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
8798 to
8799 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
8800 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
8801 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
8802 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
8803 the password callback is called.
8804 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
8805
8806 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
8807
8808 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
8809 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
8810 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
8811 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
8812 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
8813 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
8814 this will work.
8815
8816 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
8817 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
8818 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
8819 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
8820 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
8821 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
8822 [Bodo Moeller]
8823
8824 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
8825 [Andy Polyakov]
8826
8827 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
8828 delete an unused file.
8829 [Ulf Möller]
8830
8831 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
8832 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
8833 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
8834 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
8835 [Steve Henson]
8836
8837 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
8838 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
8839 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
8840 of an error.
8841 [Bodo Moeller]
8842
8843 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
8844 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
8845 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8846
8847 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
8848 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
8849 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
8850 comparison" warnings.
8851 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
8852 [Steve Henson]
8853
8854 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
8855 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
8856 derived keys are printed to stderr.
8857 [Steve Henson]
8858
8859 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
8860 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
8861
8862 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
8863 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
8864
8865 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
8866 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
8867 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
8868
8869 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
8870 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
8871 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
8872 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
8873 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
8874 this bug.
8875 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
8876
8877 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
8878 The interface is as follows:
8879 Applications can use
8880 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
8881 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
8882 "off" is now the default.
8883 The library internally uses
8884 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
8885 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
8886 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
8887
8888 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
8889 even the default) are now avoided.
8890
8891 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
8892 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
8893 than just having a counter.
8894
8895 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
8896
8897 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
8898 extensions.
8899 [Bodo Moeller]
8900
8901 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
8902 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
8903 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
8904 Initial "mode" flags are:
8905
8906 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
8907 a single record has been written.
8908 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
8909 retries use the same buffer location.
8910 (But all of the contents must be
8911 copied!)
8912 [Bodo Moeller]
8913
8914 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
8915 worked.
8916
8917 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
8918 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
8919
8920 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
8921 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
8922 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
8923 [Steve Henson]
8924
8925 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
8926 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
8927 test programs.
8928 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
8929
8930 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
8931 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
8932 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
8933 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
8934 point to the end.
8935 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
8936 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
8937
8938 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
8939 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
8940 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
8941 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
8942 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
8943 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
8944 [Steve Henson]
8945
8946 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
8947 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
8948 necessary function names.
8949 [Steve Henson]
8950
8951 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
8952 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
8953 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
8954 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
8955 [Bodo Moeller]
8956
8957 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
8958 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
8959 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
8960 [Steve Henson]
8961
8962 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
8963 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
8964 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
8965 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
8966 such programs?)
8967 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
8968 need locks.
8969 [Bodo Moeller]
8970
8971 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
8972 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
8973 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
8974 [Bodo Moeller]
8975
8976 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
8977 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
8978 appropriate.
8979 [Bodo Moeller]
8980
8981 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
8982 for the encoded length.
8983 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
8984
8985 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
8986 [Steve Henson]
8987
8988 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
8989 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
8990 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
8991 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
8992 [Steve Henson]
8993
8994 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
8995 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
8996 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8997
8998 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
8999 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9000 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9001 unusual formatting.
9002 [Steve Henson]
9003
9004 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9005 to use the new extension code.
9006 [Steve Henson]
9007
9008 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9009 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9010 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9011 constant.
9012 [Steve Henson]
9013
9014 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9015 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9016 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9017 [Bodo Moeller]
9018
9019 #if 0
9020 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9021 [Ben Laurie]
9022 #else
9023 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9024 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9025 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9026 #endif
9027
9028 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9029 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9030 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9031 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9032 [Ben Laurie]
9033
9034 *) DES library cleanups.
9035 [Ulf Möller]
9036
9037 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9038 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9039 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9040 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9041 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9042 of v2.0.
9043 [Steve Henson]
9044
9045 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9046 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9047 [Bodo Moeller]
9048
9049 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9050 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9051 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9052 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9053 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9054 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9055 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9056 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9057 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9058 [Steve Henson]
9059
9060 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9061 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9062 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9063 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9064 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9065 value doesn't matter.
9066 [Steve Henson]
9067
9068 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9069 support mutable.
9070 [Ben Laurie]
9071
9072 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9073 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9074 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9075 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9076
9077 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9078 [Ulf Möller]
9079
9080 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9081 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9082 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9083
9084 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9085 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9086
9087 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9088 [Ben Laurie]
9089
9090 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9091 [Ben Laurie]
9092
9093 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9094 [Ben Laurie]
9095
9096 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9097 [Bodo Moeller]
9098
9099
9100 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9101
9102 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9103
9104 *) Updated some demos.
9105 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9106
9107 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9108 [Wu Zhigang]
9109
9110 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9111 [Steve Henson]
9112
9113 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9114 [Steve Henson]
9115
9116 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9117 instead of using a fixed path.
9118 [Bodo Moeller]
9119
9120 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9121 [Andy Polyakov]
9122
9123 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9124 [Richard Levitte]
9125
9126
9127 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9128
9129 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9130 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9131 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9132
9133 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9134 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9135 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9136 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9137 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9138 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9139 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9140 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9141 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9142 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9143 [Steve Henson]
9144
9145 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9146 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9147 [Steve Henson]
9148
9149 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9150 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9151 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9152 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9153 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9154
9155 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9156 [Bodo Moeller]
9157
9158 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9159 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9160 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9161 [Steve Henson]
9162
9163 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9164 [Ben Laurie]
9165
9166 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9167 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9168 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9169 key elements as negative integers.
9170 [Steve Henson]
9171
9172 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9173 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9174
9175 *) VMS support.
9176 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9177
9178 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9179 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9180 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9181 [Steve Henson]
9182
9183 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9184 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9185 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9186 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9187 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9188 [Bodo Moeller]
9189
9190 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9191 [Ulf Möller]
9192
9193 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9194 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9195 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9196 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9197
9198 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9199 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9200 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9201
9202 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9203 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9204 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9205 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9206 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9207 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9208 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9209 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9210 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9211
9212 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9213 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9214 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9215 does not influence s as it used to.
9216
9217 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9218 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9219 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9220 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9221 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9222 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9223 [Bodo Moeller]
9224
9225 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9226 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9227 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9228 key type.
9229 [Steve Henson]
9230
9231 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9232 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9233 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9234 and 'x509').
9235 [Steve Henson]
9236
9237 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9238 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9239 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9240 extension option.
9241 [Steve Henson]
9242
9243 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9244 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9245 [Ben Laurie]
9246
9247 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9248 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9249
9250 *) Support Mingw32.
9251 [Ulf Möller]
9252
9253 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9254 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9255
9256 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9257 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9258
9259 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9260 [Ulf Möller]
9261
9262 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9263 [Anonymous]
9264
9265 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9266 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9267
9268 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9269 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9270 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9271 DER-encoded.)
9272 [Bodo Moeller]
9273
9274 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9275 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9276 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9277 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9278 now it really counts the depth.
9279 [Bodo Moeller]
9280
9281 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9282 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9283 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9284 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9285 didn't match the private key).
9286
9287 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9288 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9289 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9290 [Bodo Moeller]
9291
9292 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9293 [Ulf Möller]
9294
9295 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9296 David Harris.
9297 [Bodo Moeller]
9298
9299 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9300 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9301 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9302 [Bodo Moeller]
9303
9304 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9305 [Bodo Moeller]
9306
9307 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9308 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9309 such as /usr/local/bin.
9310 [Bodo Moeller]
9311
9312 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9313 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9314
9315 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9316 [Ulf Möller]
9317
9318 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9319 extension adding in x509 utility.
9320 [Steve Henson]
9321
9322 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9323 [Ulf Möller]
9324
9325 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9326 prototypes.
9327 [Steve Henson]
9328
9329 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9330 [Ulf Möller]
9331
9332 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9333 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9334 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9335 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9336 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9337 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9338 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9339 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9340 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9341 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9342 [Steve Henson]
9343
9344 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9345 [Bodo Moeller]
9346
9347 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9348 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9349 [Bodo Moeller]
9350
9351 *) Fix some race conditions.
9352 [Bodo Moeller]
9353
9354 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9355 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9356 [Steve Henson]
9357
9358 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9359 [Ulf Möller]
9360
9361 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9362 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9363 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9364 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9365
9366 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9367 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9368
9369 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9370 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9371 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9372
9373 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9374 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9375
9376 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9377 [Ulf Möller]
9378
9379 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9380 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9381
9382 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9383 [Ulf Möller]
9384
9385 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9386 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9387
9388 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9389 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9390 [Steve Henson]
9391
9392 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9393 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9394 [Ben Laurie]
9395
9396 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9397 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9398 [Steve Henson]
9399
9400 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9401 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9402 [Steve Henson]
9403
9404 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9405 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9406 [Steve Henson]
9407
9408 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9409 support typesafe stack.
9410 [Steve Henson]
9411
9412 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9413 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9414
9415 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9416 old X509V3 handling code.
9417 [Steve Henson]
9418
9419 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9420 [Ulf Möller]
9421
9422 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9423 [Bodo Moeller]
9424
9425 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9426 [Ben Laurie]
9427
9428 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9429 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9430
9431 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9432 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9433 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9434 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9435 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9436 [Ben Laurie]
9437
9438 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9439 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9440 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9441 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9442 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9443
9444 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9445 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9446 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9447 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9448
9449 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9450 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9451 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9452 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9453
9454 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9455 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9456 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9457 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9458 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9459 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9460 [Bodo Moeller]
9461
9462 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9463 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9464 [Bodo Moeller]
9465
9466 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9467 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9468 [Ulf Möller]
9469
9470 *) Tweaks to Configure
9471 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9472
9473 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9474 yet...
9475 [Steve Henson]
9476
9477 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9478 [Ulf Möller]
9479
9480 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9481 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9482 [Ulf Möller]
9483
9484 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9485 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9486 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9487 [Bodo Moeller]
9488
9489 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9490 [Bodo Moeller]
9491
9492 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9493 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9494 [Steve Henson]
9495
9496 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9497 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9498 to library startup routines.
9499 [Steve Henson]
9500
9501 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9502 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9503 codes along the way.
9504 [Steve Henson]
9505
9506 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9507 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9508 objects to objects.h
9509 [Steve Henson]
9510
9511 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9512 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9513 [Steve Henson]
9514
9515 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9516 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9517
9518 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9519 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9520 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9521
9522 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9523 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9524 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9525
9526 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9527 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9528 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9529
9530
9531 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9532
9533 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9534 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9535 [Ben Laurie]
9536
9537 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9538 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9539 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9540 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9541 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9542
9543 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9544 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9545 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9546 document.
9547 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9548
9549 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9550 Malloc, Free.
9551 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9552
9553 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9554 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9555
9556 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9557 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9558 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9559 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9560
9561 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9562 [Ben Laurie]
9563
9564 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9565 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9566 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9567 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9568 [Steve Henson]
9569
9570 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9571 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9572 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9573 [Steve Henson]
9574
9575 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9576 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9577 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9578 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9579 installed as `perl').
9580 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9581
9582 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9583 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9584
9585 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9586 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9587 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9588 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9589 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9590 [Steve Henson]
9591
9592 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9593 [Ben Laurie]
9594
9595 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9596 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9597 is horrible: I feel ill....
9598 [Steve Henson]
9599
9600 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9601 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9602 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9603 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
9604 [Steve Henson]
9605
9606 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9607 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9608
9609 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9610 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9611 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9612 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9613
9614 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9615 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9616 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9617 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9618 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9619 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9620 openssl_bio.xs.
9621 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9622
9623 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9624 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9625
9626 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9627 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9628
9629 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
9630 [Ben Laurie]
9631
9632 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9633 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9634 in CRLs.
9635 [Steve Henson]
9636
9637 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9638 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9639 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9640 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9641 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9642 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9643 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9644 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9645 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9646 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9647 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9648
9649 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9650 [Ben Laurie]
9651
9652 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
9653 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
9654 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
9655 for linking it into DSOs.
9656 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9657
9658 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
9659 Fixed.
9660 [Ben Laurie]
9661
9662 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
9663 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
9664 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
9665 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
9666 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
9667 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9668
9669 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
9670 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
9671 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
9672 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
9673 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
9674 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
9675 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9676
9677 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
9678 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
9679 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
9680 encryption.
9681 [Ben Laurie]
9682
9683 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
9684 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
9685 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
9686 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
9687 [Steve Henson]
9688
9689 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
9690 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
9691 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
9692 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
9693 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
9694 field as blank.
9695 [Steve Henson]
9696
9697 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
9698 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
9699 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
9700 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
9701 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9702
9703 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
9704 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
9705 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9706
9707 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
9708 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9709
9710 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
9711 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
9712 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
9713 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
9714 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
9715 [Steve Henson]
9716
9717 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
9718 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
9719 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
9720 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
9721 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
9722 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
9723 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
9724 [Ben Laurie]
9725
9726 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
9727 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
9728 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
9729 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
9730 [Ben Laurie]
9731
9732 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
9733 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
9734
9735 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
9736 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
9737 [Steve Henson]
9738
9739 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
9740 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
9741 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
9742 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
9743 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
9744 (e.g. s_server).
9745 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
9746 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
9747 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
9748 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
9749 no way to reconfigure them.
9750 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
9751 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
9752 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
9753 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
9754 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
9755 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9756
9757 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
9758 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
9759 recognized by the users.
9760 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9761
9762 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
9763 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
9764 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
9765 already masked variable.
9766 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9767
9768 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
9769 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9770
9771 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
9772 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
9773 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
9774 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9775
9776 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
9777 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
9778 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9779
9780 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
9781 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
9782 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
9783 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
9784 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
9785 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
9786 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
9787 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
9788 now, too.
9789 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9790
9791 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
9792 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
9793 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9794
9795 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
9796 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
9797 config file.
9798 [Steve Henson]
9799
9800 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
9801 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9802
9803 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
9804 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
9805 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
9806 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
9807 [Ben Laurie]
9808
9809 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
9810 [Steve Henson]
9811
9812 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
9813 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9814
9815 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
9816 [Ben Laurie]
9817
9818 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
9819 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
9820 [Steve Henson]
9821
9822 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
9823 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
9824 [Steve Henson]
9825
9826 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
9827 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
9828 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
9829 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
9830 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
9831 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
9832 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
9833 Ben Laurie]
9834
9835 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
9836 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9837
9838 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
9839 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
9840 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
9841 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
9842 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9843
9844 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
9845 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
9846 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
9847 [Steve Henson]
9848
9849 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
9850 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
9851 an example.
9852 [Steve Henson]
9853
9854 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
9855 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
9856 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9857
9858 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
9859 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
9860 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
9861 build instructions.
9862 [Steve Henson]
9863
9864 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
9865 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
9866 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
9867 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
9868 [Steve Henson]
9869
9870 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
9871 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
9872 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
9873 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
9874 [Ben Laurie]
9875
9876 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
9877 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
9878 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
9879 so it wasn't spotted.
9880 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
9881
9882 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
9883 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
9884 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
9885 vectors if you have them.
9886 [Ben Laurie]
9887
9888 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
9889 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
9890 [Ben Laurie]
9891
9892 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
9893 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
9894 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
9895 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
9896 If you do a:
9897 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
9898 it will update them.
9899 [Steve Henson]
9900
9901 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
9902 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
9903 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
9904 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
9905 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
9906 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
9907 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
9908 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9909
9910 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
9911 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
9912 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
9913 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
9914 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
9915 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
9916 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
9917 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
9918 the crypto/md/ stuff).
9919 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9920
9921 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
9922 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
9923 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
9924 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
9925 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
9926 [Steve Henson]
9927
9928 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
9929 INTEGER code.
9930 [Steve Henson]
9931
9932 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
9933 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9934
9935 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
9936 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9937
9938 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
9939 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
9940 [Ben Laurie]
9941
9942 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
9943 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
9944
9945 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
9946 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
9947
9948 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
9949 [Steve Henson]
9950
9951 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
9952 few typos.
9953 [Steve Henson]
9954
9955 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
9956 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
9957 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
9958 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9959
9960 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9961 [Steve Henson]
9962
9963 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9964 [Steve Henson]
9965
9966 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
9967 [Steve Henson]
9968
9969 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
9970 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
9971 [Steve Henson]
9972
9973 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
9974 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
9975 CA extensions.
9976 [Steve Henson]
9977
9978 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
9979 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
9980 [Steve Henson]
9981
9982 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
9983 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
9984 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
9985 [Steve Henson]
9986
9987 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
9988 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
9989 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
9990 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
9991 properly to be processed.
9992 [Steve Henson]
9993
9994 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
9995 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
9996 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
9997 [Ben Laurie]
9998
9999 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10000 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10001
10002 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10003 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10004 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10005 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10006 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10007 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10008 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10009 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10010 or delete all the .err files.
10011 [Steve Henson]
10012
10013 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10014 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10015 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10016 to regenerate it if needed.
10017 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10018 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10019
10020 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10021 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10022
10023 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10024 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10025 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10026 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10027 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10028 [Steve Henson]
10029
10030 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10031 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10032
10033 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10034 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10035
10036 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10037 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10038 error, but didn't set one).
10039 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10040
10041 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10042 [Ben Laurie]
10043
10044 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10045 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10046 [Steve Henson]
10047
10048 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10049 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10050
10051 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10052 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10053 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10054 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10055 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10056 OID is not part of the table.
10057 [Steve Henson]
10058
10059 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10060 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10061 [Ben Laurie]
10062
10063 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10064 [Ben Laurie]
10065
10066 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10067 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10068 was "1234").
10069 [Steve Henson]
10070
10071 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10072 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10073
10074 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10075 NULL pointers.
10076 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10077
10078 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10079 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10080
10081 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10082 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10083
10084 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10085 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10086
10087 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10088 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10089 [Ben Laurie]
10090
10091 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10092 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10093 [Steve Henson]
10094
10095 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10096 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10097
10098 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10099 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10100
10101 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10102 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10103
10104 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10105 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10106
10107 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10108 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10109 unused in the certificate verification process.
10110 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10111
10112 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10113 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10114 [Steve Henson]
10115
10116 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10117 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10118 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10119
10120 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10121 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10122 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10123 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10124 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10125
10126 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10127 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10128 [Steve Henson]
10129
10130 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10131 [Steve Henson]
10132
10133 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10134 [Paul Sutton]
10135
10136 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10137 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10138
10139 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10140 [Ben Laurie]
10141
10142 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10143 [Ben Laurie]
10144
10145 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10146 [Ben Laurie]
10147
10148 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10149 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10150 other error libraries.
10151 [Steve Henson]
10152
10153 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10154 [Steve Henson]
10155
10156 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10157 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10158 be read in.
10159 [Steve Henson]
10160
10161 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10162 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10163 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10164 the new set of documenation files.
10165 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10166
10167 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10168 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10169 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10170 number of arguments.
10171 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10172
10173 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10174 [Ben Laurie]
10175
10176 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10177 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10178 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10179
10180 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10181 [Ben Laurie]
10182
10183 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10184 nextstep
10185 ncr-scde
10186 unixware-2.0
10187 unixware-2.0-pentium
10188 sco5-cc.
10189 [Ben Laurie]
10190
10191 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10192 before they are needed.
10193 [Ben Laurie]
10194
10195 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10196 [Ben Laurie]
10197
10198
10199 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10200
10201 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10202 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10203 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10204
10205 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10206 [Paul Sutton]
10207
10208 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10209 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10210 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10211
10212 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10213 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10214 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10215
10216 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10217 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10218 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10219
10220 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10221 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10222
10223 *) Updated the README file.
10224 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10225
10226 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10227 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10228 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10229
10230 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10231 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10232 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10233
10234 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10235 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE

10238 o removed obsolete TODO file
10239 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
10240 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10241
10242 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
10243 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
10244 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
10245 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
10246 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
10247 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10248 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10249
10250 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10251 [Mark J. Cox]
10252
10253 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10254 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10255 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10256 summer 1998.

10268 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
10269 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
10270 [Eric A. Young]
10271
10272 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
10273 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
10274 available).
10275 [Eric A. Young]
10276
10277 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
10278 binary structures
10279 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]

10334 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
10335 [Eric A. Young]
10336
10337 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
10338 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
10339 [Eric A. Young]
10340
10341 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
