10 Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
11
12 *) Added command 'openssl kdf' that uses the EVP_KDF API.
13 [Shane Lontis]
14
15 *) Added command 'openssl mac' that uses the EVP_MAC API.
16 [Shane Lontis]
17
18 *) Added OPENSSL_info() to get diverse built-in OpenSSL data, such
19 as default directories. Also added the command 'openssl info'
20 for scripting purposes.
21 [Richard Levitte]
22
23 *) The functions AES_ige_encrypt() and AES_bi_ige_encrypt() have been
24 deprecated. These undocumented functions were never integrated into the EVP
25 layer and implement the AES Infinite Garble Extension (IGE) mode and AES
26 Bi-directional IGE mode. These modes were never formally standardised and
27 usage of these functions is believed to be very small. In particular
28 AES_bi_ige_encrypt() has a known bug. It accepts 2 AES keys, but only one
29 is ever used. The security implications are believed to be minimal, but
30 this issue was never fixed for backwards compatibility reasons. New code
31 should not use these modes.
32 [Matt Caswell]
33
34 *) Add prediction resistance to the DRBG reseeding process.
35 [Paul Dale]
36
37 *) Limit the number of blocks in a data unit for AES-XTS to 2^20 as
38 mandated by IEEE Std 1619-2018.
39 [Paul Dale]
40
41 *) Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
42 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the '*sum'
43 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
44 [Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale]
45
46 *) Removed the heartbeat message in DTLS feature, as it has very
47 little usage and doesn't seem to fulfill a valuable purpose.
48 The configuration option is now deprecated.
49 [Richard Levitte]
50
51 *) Changed the output of 'openssl {digestname} < file' to display the
52 digest name in its output.
53 [Richard Levitte]
54
55 *) Added a new generic trace API which provides support for enabling
56 instrumentation through trace output. This feature is mainly intended
57 as an aid for developers and is disabled by default. To utilize it,
58 OpenSSL needs to be configured with the `enable-trace` option.
59
60 If the tracing API is enabled, the application can activate trace output
61 by registering BIOs as trace channels for a number of tracing and debugging
62 categories.
63
64 The 'openssl' application has been expanded to enable any of the types
65 available via environment variables defined by the user, and serves as
66 one possible example on how to use this functionality.
67 [Richard Levitte & Matthias St. Pierre]
68
69 *) Added build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
70 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
71 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
72
73 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
74 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
75 [Richard Levitte]
76
77 *) Add Single Step KDF (EVP_KDF_SS) to EVP_KDF.
78 [Shane Lontis]
79
80 *) Add KMAC to EVP_MAC.
81 [Shane Lontis]
82
83 *) Added property based algorithm implementation selection framework to
84 the core.
85 [Paul Dale]
86
87 *) Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
88 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
89 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
90 to affine coordinates.
91 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
92
93 *) Added EVP_KDF, an EVP layer KDF API, to simplify adding KDF and PRF
94 implementations. This includes an EVP_PKEY to EVP_KDF bridge for
95 those algorithms that were already supported through the EVP_PKEY API
96 (scrypt, TLS1 PRF and HKDF). The low-level KDF functions for PBKDF2
97 and scrypt are now wrappers that call EVP_KDF.
98 [David Makepeace]
99
100 *) Build devcrypto engine as a dynamic engine.
101 [Eneas U de Queiroz]
102
103 *) Add keyed BLAKE2 to EVP_MAC.
104 [Antoine Salon]
105
106 *) Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
107 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
108 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
109 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
110 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
111 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
112
113 *) Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
114 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
115 [Bernd Edlinger]
116
117 *) Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
118 [Richard Levitte]
119
120 *) Change the license to the Apache License v2.0.
121 [Richard Levitte]
122
123 *) Change the possible version information given with OPENSSL_API_COMPAT.
124 It may be a pre-3.0.0 style numerical version number as it was defined
125 in 1.1.0, and it may also simply take the major version number.
126
127 Because of the version numbering of pre-3.0.0 releases, the values 0,
128 1 and 2 are equivalent to 0x00908000L (0.9.8), 0x10000000L (1.0.0) and
129 0x10100000L (1.1.0), respectively.
130 [Richard Levitte]
131
132 *) Switch to a new version scheme using three numbers MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
133
134 o Major releases (indicated by incrementing the MAJOR release number)
135 may introduce incompatible API/ABI changes.
136 o Minor releases (indicated by incrementing the MINOR release number)
137 may introduce new features but retain API/ABI compatibility.
138 o Patch releases (indicated by incrementing the PATCH number)
139 are intended for bug fixes and other improvements of existing
140 features only (like improving performance or adding documentation)
141 and retain API/ABI compatibility.
142 [Richard Levitte]
143
144 *) Add support for RFC5297 SIV mode (siv128), including AES-SIV.
145 [Todd Short]
146
147 *) Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
148 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
149 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
150 [Richard Levitte]
151
152 *) Recreate the OS390-Unix config target. It no longer relies on a
153 special script like it did for OpenSSL pre-1.1.0.
154 [Richard Levitte]
155
156 *) Instead of having the source directories listed in Configure, add
157 a 'build.info' keyword SUBDIRS to indicate what sub-directories to
158 look into.
159 [Richard Levitte]
160
161 *) Add GMAC to EVP_MAC.
162 [Paul Dale]
163
164 *) Ported the HMAC, CMAC and SipHash EVP_PKEY_METHODs to EVP_MAC.
165 [Richard Levitte]
166
167 *) Added EVP_MAC, an EVP layer MAC API, to simplify adding MAC
168 implementations. This includes a generic EVP_PKEY to EVP_MAC bridge,
169 to facilitate the continued use of MACs through raw private keys in
170 functionality such as EVP_DigestSign* and EVP_DigestVerify*.
171 [Richard Levitte]
172
173 *) Deprecate ECDH_KDF_X9_62() and mark its replacement as internal. Users
174 should use the EVP interface instead (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_type).
175 [Antoine Salon]
176
177 *) Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
178 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
179 are retained for backwards compatibility.
180 [Antoine Salon]
181
182 *) AES-XTS mode now enforces that its two keys are different to mitigate
183 the attacked described in "Efficient Instantiations of Tweakable
184 Blockciphers and Refinements to Modes OCB and PMAC" by Phillip Rogaway.
185 Details of this attack can be obtained from:
186 http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/%7Erogaway/papers/offsets.pdf
187 [Paul Dale]
188
189 *) Rename the object files, i.e. give them other names than in previous
190 versions. Their names now include the name of the final product, as
191 well as its type mnemonic (bin, lib, shlib).
192 [Richard Levitte]
193
194 *) Added new option for 'openssl list', '-objects', which will display the
195 list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names.
196 [Richard Levitte]
197
198 *) Added support for Linux Kernel TLS data-path. The Linux Kernel data-path
199 improves application performance by removing data copies and providing
200 applications with zero-copy system calls such as sendfile and splice.
201 [Boris Pismenny]
202
203 Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [xx XXX xxxx]
204
205 *) Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
206 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
207 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
208 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
209 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
210 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
211 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
212 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
213 applications.
214 [Matt Caswell]
215
216 Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
217
218 *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
219
220 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
221 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
222 algorithm to recover the private key.
223
224 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
225 (CVE-2018-0734)
226 [Paul Dale]
227
228 *) Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
229
230 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
231 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
232 algorithm to recover the private key.
233
234 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
235 (CVE-2018-0735)
236 [Paul Dale]
237
238 *) Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
239 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
240 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
241
242 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
243 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
244 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
245 provided by the application.
246
247 Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
248
249 *) Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
250 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
251 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
252 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
253 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
254 of the ClientHello
255 [Benjamin Kaduk]
256
257 *) Add SM2 base algorithm support.
258 [Jack Lloyd]
259
260 *) s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
261 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
262 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
263 [Patrick Steuer]
264
265 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
266 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
267 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
268 [Richard Levitte]
269
270 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
271 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
272 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
273 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
274 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
275 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
276 to work in projective coordinates.
277 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
278
279 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
280 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
281 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
282 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
283 to 2^-128.
284 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
285
286 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
287 [Kurt Roeckx]
288
289 *) The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
290 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
291 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
292 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
293 [Richard Levitte]
294
295 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
296 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
297 [Andy Polyakov]
298
299 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
300 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
301 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
302 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
303 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
304
305 *) Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
306 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
307 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
308 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
309 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
310 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
311
312 *) Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
313 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
314 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
315 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
316 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
317 [Paul Dale]
318
319 *) Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
320 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
321 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
322 authors.
323 [Matt Caswell]
324
325 *) AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
326 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
327 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
328 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
329 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
330 multi-version installation is managed.
331 [Andy Polyakov]
332
333 *) Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
334 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
335 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
336 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
337 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
338 [Billy Bob Brumley]
339
340 *) Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
341 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
342 chosen point SCA attacks.
343 [Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley]
344
345 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
346 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
347 [Matt Caswell]
348
349 *) Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
350 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
351 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
352 [Matt Caswell]
353
354 *) SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
355 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
356 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
357 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
358 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
359 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
360 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
361 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
362 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
363 [Kurt Roeckx]
364
365 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
366 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
367 [Richard Levitte]
368
369 *) Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
370 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
371 [Billy Bob Brumley]
372
373 *) Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
374 binary and prime elliptic curves.
375 [Billy Bob Brumley]
376
377 *) Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
378 constant time fixed point multiplication.
379 [Billy Bob Brumley]
380
381 *) Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
382 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
383 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
384 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
385 ECDH derive operations).
386 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
387 Sohaib ul Hassan]
388
389 *) Updated CONTRIBUTING
390 [Rich Salz]
391
392 *) Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
393 randomness from the system.
394 [Matthias St. Pierre]
395
396 *) Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
397 [Richard Levitte]
398
399 *) Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
400 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
401 [Matt Caswell]
402
403 *) Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
404 [Matt Caswell]
405
406 *) Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
407 [Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz]
408
409 *) Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
410 [Richard Levitte]
411
412 *) Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
413 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
414 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
415 [Matt Caswell]
416
417 *) Memory allocation failures consistenly add an error to the error
418 stack.
419 [Rich Salz]
420
421 *) Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
422 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
423 [Bernd Edlinger]
424
425 *) Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
426 [Matt Caswell]
427
428 *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
429 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
430 [Matthias St. Pierre]
431
432 *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
433 for the license change).
434 [Rich Salz]
435
436 *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
437 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
438 [Matt Caswell]
439
440 *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
441 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
442 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
443 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
444 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
445 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
446 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
447 [Matt Caswell]
448
449 *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
450 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
451 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
452 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
453 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
454 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
455 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
456 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
457 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
458 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
459 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
460 written to stderr.
461 [Viktor Dukhovni]
462
463 *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
464 Mike Hamburg.
465 [Matt Caswell]
466
467 *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
468 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
469 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
470 get the search data out of them.
471 [Richard Levitte]
472
473 *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
474 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
475 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
476 https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3
477 [Matt Caswell]
478
479 *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
480
481 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
482 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
483 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
484 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
485 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
486 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
487
488 Some of its new features are:
489 o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
490 o The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
491 o There is a public and private DRBG instance.
492 o The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
493 o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
494 o The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
495 operation
496 [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
497
498 *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
499 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
500 to display all sorts of configuration data.
501 [Richard Levitte]
502
503 *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
504 [Richard Levitte]
505
506 *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
507 [Paul Dale]
508
509 *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
510 now been removed.
511 [Rich Salz]
512
513 *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
514 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
515 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
516 debug (or make silent).
517 [Richard Levitte]
518
519 *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
520 arguments to config / Configure.
521 [Richard Levitte]
522
523 *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
524 [Paul Yang]
525
526 *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
527 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
528 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
529 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
530
531 *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
532 as documented in RFC6066.
533 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
534 [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
535
536 *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
537 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
538 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
539 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
540
541 *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
542 original author does not agree with the license change.
543 [Rich Salz]
544
545 *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
546 [Jon Spillett]
547
548 *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
549 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
550 [Rich Salz]
551
552 *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
553 without clearing the errors.
554 [Richard Levitte]
555
556 *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
557 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
558 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
559 [Rich Salz]
560
561 *) Add SHA3.
562 [Andy Polyakov]
563
564 *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
565 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
566 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
567 as a fallback).
568
569 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
570 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
571 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
572 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
573 [Richard Levitte]
574
575 *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
576 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
577 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
578 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
579 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
580 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
581 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
582 [Richard Levitte]
583
584 *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
585 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
586 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
587 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
588 [Richard Levitte]
589
590 *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
591 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
592 error code calls like this:
593
594 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
595
596 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
597 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
598 affect new modules.
599 [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
600
601 *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
602 [Rich Salz]
603
604 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
605 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
606 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
607 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
608 [Richard Levitte]
609
610 *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
611 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
612 than just the call where this user data is passed.
613 [Richard Levitte]
614
615 *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
616 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
617 [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
618
619 *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
620 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
621 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
622 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
623 prohibts this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
624 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
625 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause inter-operability
626 issues.
627 [Matt Caswell]
628
629 *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
630 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
631 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
632 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
633 [Richard Levitte]
634
635 *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
636 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
637 [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
638
639 *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
640 does for RSA, etc.
641 [Richard Levitte]
642
643 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
644 platform rather than 'mingw'.
645 [Richard Levitte]
646
647 *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
648 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
649 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
650 certificates and CRLs.
651 [Paul Dale]
652
653 *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
654 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
655 [Andy Polyakov]
656
657 *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
658 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
659 [Richard Levitte]
660
661 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
662 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
663 which is the minimum version we support.
664 [Richard Levitte]
665
666 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
667 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
668 are no longer allowed.
669 [Emilia Käsper]
670
671 *) Add support for ARIA
672 [Paul Dale]
673
674 *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
675 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
676 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
677 using "-servername".
678 [Matt Caswell]
679
680 *) Add support for SipHash
681 [Todd Short]
682
683 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
684 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
685 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
686 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
687 [Matt Caswell]
688
689 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
690 using the algorithm defined in
691 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
692 [Richard Levitte]
693
694 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
695 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
696
697 *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
698 [Emilia Käsper]
699
700 *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
701 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
702 [Rich Salz]
703
704
705 Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [xx XXX xxxx]
706
707 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
708
709 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
710 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
711 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
712 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
713 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
714
715 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
716 (CVE-2018-0732)
717 [Guido Vranken]
718
719 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
720
721 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
722 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
723 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
724 recover the private key.
725
726 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
727 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
728 (CVE-2018-0737)
729 [Billy Brumley]
730
731 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
732 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
733 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
734 [Richard Levitte]
735
736 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
737 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
738 [Andy Polyakov]
739
740 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
741 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
742 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
743 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
744 to 2^-128.
745 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
746
747 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
748 [Kurt Roeckx]
749
750 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
751 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
752 [Matt Caswell]
753
754 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
755 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
756 [Richard Levitte]
757
758 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
759 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
760 are no longer allowed.
761 [Emilia Käsper]
762
763 *) Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
764
765 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
766 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
767 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
768 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
769 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
770 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
771 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
772 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
773 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
774 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
775 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
776 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
777 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).
778 [Matt Caswell]
779
780 Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
781
782 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
783
784 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
785 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
786 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
787 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
788 so this is considered safe.
789
790 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
791 project.
792 (CVE-2018-0739)
793 [Matt Caswell]
794
795 *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
796
797 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
798 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
799 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
800 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
801 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
802 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
803
804 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
805 (IBM).
806 (CVE-2018-0733)
807 [Andy Polyakov]
808
809 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
810 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
811 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
812 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
813 [Richard Levitte]
814
815 *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
816
817 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
818 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
819 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
820 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
821 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
822
823 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
824 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
825 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
826 [Matt Caswell]
827
828 *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
829 exist.
830 [Rich Salz]
831
832 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
833
834 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
835 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
836 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
837 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
838 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
839 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
840 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
841 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
842 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
843 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
844
845 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
846 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
847
848 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
849 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
850 (CVE-2017-3738)
851 [Andy Polyakov]
852
853 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
854
855 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
856
857 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
858 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
859 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
860 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
861 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
862 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
863 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
864 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
865 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
866 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
867 key that is shared between multiple clients.
868
869 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
870 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
871
872 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
873 (CVE-2017-3736)
874 [Andy Polyakov]
875
876 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
877
878 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
879 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
880 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
881
882 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
883 (CVE-2017-3735)
884 [Rich Salz]
885
886 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
887
888 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
889 platform rather than 'mingw'.
890 [Richard Levitte]
891
892 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
893 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
894 which is the minimum version we support.

896
897 Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
898
899 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
900
901 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
902 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
903 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
904 and servers are affected.
905
906 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
907 (CVE-2017-3733)
908 [Matt Caswell]
909
910 Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
911
912 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
913
914 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
915 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
916 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
917
918 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
919 (CVE-2017-3731)
920 [Andy Polyakov]
921
922 *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
923
924 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
925 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
926 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
927 of Service attack.
928
929 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
930 (CVE-2017-3730)
931 [Matt Caswell]
932
933 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
934
935 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
936 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
937 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
938 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
939 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
940 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
941 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
942 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
943 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
944 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
945 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
946 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
947 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
948
949 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
950 (CVE-2017-3732)
951 [Andy Polyakov]

953 Changes between 1.1.0b and 1.1.0c [10 Nov 2016]
954
955 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
956
957 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
958 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
959 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.
960
961 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki (Google Security Team)
962 (CVE-2016-7054)
963 [Richard Levitte]
964
965 *) CMS Null dereference
966
967 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
968 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
969 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
970 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
971 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
972 affected.
973
974 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
975 (CVE-2016-7053)
976 [Stephen Henson]
977
978 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
979
980 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
981 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
982 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
983 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
984 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
985 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
986 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
987 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
988 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
989 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
990 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
991 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
992 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
993 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
994
995 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
996 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
997 providing reproducible case.
998 (CVE-2016-7055)
999 [Andy Polyakov]
1000
1001 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
1002 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
1003 [Richard Levitte]
1004
1005 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
1006
1007 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
1008
1009 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
1010 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
1011 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
1012 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
1013 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
1014 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
1015
1016 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.

1018 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.

1022 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
1023
1024 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
1025
1026 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
1027 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
1028 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
1029 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
1030 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
1031 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
1032 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
1033
1034 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1035 (CVE-2016-6304)
1036 [Matt Caswell]
1037
1038 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
1039
1040 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
1041 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
1042 Denial Of Service attack.
1043
1044 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
1045 (CVE-2016-6305)
1046 [Matt Caswell]
1047
1048 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
1049 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
1050
1051 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
1052 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
1053 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
1054 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
1055 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
1056 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
1057 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
1058 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
1059 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
1060 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
1061 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
1062 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
1063 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
1064 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
1065 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
1066
1067 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
1068 that the connection fails
1069 or
1070 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
1071 very little free memory
1072 or
1073 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
1074 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
1075 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
1076 memory to service the multiple requests.
1077
1078 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
1079 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
1080 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
1081 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
1082 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.

1084 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1085 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
1086 [Matt Caswell]
1087
1088 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
1089 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
1090 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
1091 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
1092 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
1093 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
1094 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
1095 [Andy Polyakov]
1096
1097 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
1098
1099 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
1100 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
1101 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
1102 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
1103 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
1104 non-ASCII password.
1105 [Andy Polyakov]
1106
1107 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
1108 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
1109 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
1110 [Rich Salz]
1111
1112 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
1113 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
1114 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
1115 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
1116 [Matt Caswell]
1117
1118 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
1119 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
1120 success.
1121 [Matt Caswell]
1122
1123 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
1124 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
1125 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
1126 no-ops and deprecated.
1127 [Matt Caswell]
1128
1129 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
1130 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
1131 were also closed.
1132 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
1133
1134 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
1135 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
1136 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
1137 [Rich Salz]
1138
1139 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
1140 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
1141 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
1142 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
1143 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
1144 and the validity of object reference counter.
1145 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
1146
1147 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
1148 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
1149 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
1150 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
1151 [Richard Levitte]
1152
1153 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
1154 [Richard Levitte]
1155
1156 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
1157 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
1158 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
1159 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
1160
1161 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
1162
1163 [Richard Levitte]
1164
1165 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
1166 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
1167 [Steve Henson]
1168
1169 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
1170 [Andy Polyakov]
1171
1172 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
1173 [Rich Salz]
1174
1175 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
1176 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
1177 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
1178 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
1179 name and is used as is.
1180 [Richard Levitte]
1181
1182 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
1183 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
1184 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
1185 [Rich Salz]
1186
1187 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
1188 the "no-shared" Configure option.
1189 [Matt Caswell]
1190
1191 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
1192 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
1193 algorithms.
1194 [Matt Caswell]
1195
1196 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
1197 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
1198 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
1199 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
1200 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
1201 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
1202 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
1203 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
1204 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
1205 [Matt Caswell]
1206
1207 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
1208 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
1209 enabled with '--debug' builds.
1210 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
1211
1212 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
1213 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1214 these have been added.
1215 [Matt Caswell]
1216
1217 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
1218 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
1219 functions for managing these have been added.
1220 [Richard Levitte]
1221
1222 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1223 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1224 these have been added.
1225 [Matt Caswell]
1226
1227 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1228 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1229 have been added.
1230 [Matt Caswell]
1231
1232 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1233 [Matt Caswell]
1234
1235 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1236 [Richard Levitte]
1237
1238 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1239 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1240 [Rich Salz]
1241
1242 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1243 [Richard Levitte]
1244
1245 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1246 [Rich Salz]
1247
1248 *) Add support for HKDF.
1249 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1250
1251 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1252 [Bill Cox]
1253
1254 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1255 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1256 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1257 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1258 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1259 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1260 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1261 [Matt Caswell]
1262
1263 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1264 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1265 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1266 [Catriona Lucey]
1267
1268 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1269 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1270 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1271 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1272 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1273 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1274 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1275
1276 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1277 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1278 [Todd Short]
1279
1280 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1281 [Todd Short]
1282
1283 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1284 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1285 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1286 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1287 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1288 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1289 default cipherlist.
1290 [Emilia Käsper]
1291
1292 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1293 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1294 [Rich Salz]
1295
1296 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1297 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1298 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1299 [Matt Caswell]
1300
1301 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1302 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1303 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1304 implemented by other servers.
1305 [Emilia Käsper]
1306
1307 *) Add X25519 support.
1308 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1309 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1310 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1311 key generation and key derivation.
1312
1313 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1314 X25519(29).
1315 [Steve Henson]
1316
1317 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1318 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1319 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1320 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1321 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1322
1323 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1324 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1325 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1326 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1327 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1328 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1329 that of a valid user.
1330 [Emilia Käsper]
1331
1332 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1333 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1334 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1335 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1336
1337 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1338 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1339
1340 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1341 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1342 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1343 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1344
1345 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1346 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1347 irrelevant.
1348 [Richard Levitte]
1349
1350 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1351 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1352 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1353 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1354 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1355 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1356
1357 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1358 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1359 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1360 [Richard Levitte]
1361
1362 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1363 [Rich Salz]
1364
1365 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1366 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1367 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1368 removed.
1369 [Richard Levitte]
1370
1371 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1372 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1373 old #define's might need to be updated.
1374 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1375
1376 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1377 [Rich Salz]
1378
1379 *) New "unified" build system
1380
1381 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1382 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1383
1384 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1385 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1386 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1387
1388 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1389 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1390 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1391 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1392 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1393
1394 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1395 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1396 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1397 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1398 libraries" in INSTALL.
1399
1400 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1401 [Richard Levitte]
1402
1403 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1404 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1405 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1406 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1407 [Matt Caswell]
1408
1409 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1410 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1411
1412 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1413 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1414 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1415 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1416 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1417 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1418 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1419 have been adapted accordingly.
1420 [Richard Levitte]
1421
1422 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1423 the leading 0-byte.
1424 [Emilia Käsper]
1425
1426 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1427 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1428 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1429 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1430 [Emilia Käsper]
1431
1432 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1433 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1434 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1435 'unsigned char*'.
1436 [Emilia Käsper]
1437
1438 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1439 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1440 [Emilia Käsper]
1441
1442 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1443 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1444 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1445 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1446 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1447 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1448 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1449
1450 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1451 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1452
1453 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1454 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1455 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1456 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1457 Text::Template.
1458
1459 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1460 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1461 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1462 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1463 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1464 %target).
1465 [Richard Levitte]
1466
1467 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1468 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1469 straightforward and less interdependent.
1470
1471 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1472 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1473 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1474
1475 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1476 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1477 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1478 installed.
1479 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1480 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1481 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1482 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1483
1484 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1485 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1486 [Richard Levitte]
1487
1488 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1489 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1490 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1491 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1492 is present).
1493 [Matt Caswell]
1494
1495 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1496 configuring.
1497 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1498
1499 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1500 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1501 before trying to build now.*
1502 [Rich Salz]
1503
1504 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1505 has changed.
1506 [Rich Salz]
1507
1508 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1509
1510 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1511 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1512 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
1513 used to authenticate the peer.
1514
1515 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
1516 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
1517 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
1518 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
1519 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
1520 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1521
1522 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
1523 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
1524 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
1525 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
1526 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
1527 or the 1.1.0 releases.
1528
1529 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
1530 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
1531 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
1532 support for the deprecated features from the library and
1533 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
1534 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
1535 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
1536 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
1537 version.
1538
1539 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
1540 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
1541 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
1542 compile with later releases.
1543
1544 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
1545 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
1546 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
1547 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
1548 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
1549 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1550
1551 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
1552 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
1553 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
1554 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
1555 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
1556 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
1557 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
1558 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
1559 [Kurt Roeckx]
1560
1561 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
1562 [Andy Polyakov]
1563
1564 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
1565 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
1566 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
1567 ECDSA_SIG format.
1568
1569 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
1570 include the ec.h header file instead.
1571 [Steve Henson]
1572
1573 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
1574 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
1575 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
1576 [Kurt Roeckx]
1577
1578 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
1579 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
1580 were added:
1581
1582 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
1583 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
1584
1585 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
1586 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
1587 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
1588
1589 Additional changes:
1590 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
1591 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
1592 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
1593 an already created structure.
1594 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
1595 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
1596 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
1597 for deprecated builds.
1598 [Richard Levitte]
1599
1600 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
1601 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
1602 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
1603 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
1604 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
1605 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
1606 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
1607 [Matt Caswell]
1608
1609 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
1610 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
1611 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
1612 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
1613 [Kurt Roeckx]
1614
1615 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
1616 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
1617 [Kurt Roeckx]
1618
1619 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
1620 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
1621 [Kurt Roeckx]
1622
1623 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
1624 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
1625 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
1626 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
1627 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
1628 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
1629 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
1630 also been removed.
1631 [Matt Caswell]
1632
1633 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
1634 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
1635 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
1636 [Rich Salz]
1637
1638 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
1639 [Rich Salz]
1640
1641 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
1642 sureware and ubsec.
1643 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
1644
1645 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
1646
1647 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
1648 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
1649
1650 FOO *x;
1651
1652 it must be:
1653
1654 FOO x;
1655
1656 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
1657 set a mandatory field to NULL.
1658
1659 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
1660 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
1661 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
1662 SEQUENCE OF.
1663 [Steve Henson]
1664
1665 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
1666 [Emilia Käsper]
1667
1668 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
1669 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
1670 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
1671 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
1672 [Matt Caswell]
1673
1674 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
1675 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
1676 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
1677 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
1678 [Emilia Käsper]
1679
1680 *) Fix no-stdio build.
1681 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
1682 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
1683
1684 *) New testing framework
1685 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
1686 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
1687 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
1688 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
1689 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
1690 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
1691
1692 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
1693
1694 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
1695 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
1696
1697 [Richard Levitte]
1698
1699 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
1700 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
1701 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
1702 and others were changed. All are now documented.
1703 [Rich Salz]
1704
1705 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
1706 return an error
1707 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
1708
1709 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
1710 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
1711
1712 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
1713 original RSA_PSK patch.
1714 [Steve Henson]
1715
1716 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
1717 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
1718 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
1719 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
1720 [Matt Caswell]
1721
1722 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
1723 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
1724 [Richard Levitte]
1725
1726 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
1727 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
1728 hasn't been working properly for a while.
1729 [Emilia Käsper]
1730
1731 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
1732 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
1733 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
1734 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
1735 transferred.
1736 [Matt Caswell]
1737
1738 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
1739 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
1740 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
1741 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
1742 [Matt Caswell]
1743
1744 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
1745 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
1746 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
1747 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
1748 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
1749 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
1750 [Matt Caswell]
1751
1752 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
1753 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
1754 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
1755 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
1756 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
1757 header file has been removed.
1758 [Matt Caswell]
1759
1760 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
1761 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
1762 [Matt Caswell]
1763
1764 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
1765 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
1766 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
1767
1768 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
1769 Added a test.
1770 [Rich Salz]
1771
1772 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
1773 [Rich Salz]
1774
1775 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
1776 sha256
1777 [Rich Salz]
1778
1779 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
1780 [Matt Caswell]
1781
1782 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
1783 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
1784 initial patch which was a great help during development.
1785 [Steve Henson]
1786
1787 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
1788 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
1789 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
1790 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
1791 [Matt Caswell]
1792
1793 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
1794 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
1795 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
1796 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
1797 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
1798 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
1799 [Matt Caswell]
1800
1801 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
1802 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
1803 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
1804 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
1805 [Matt Caswell]
1806
1807 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
1808 compatible client hello.
1809 [Kurt Roeckx]
1810
1811 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
1812 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
1813 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
1814
1815 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
1816 [Rich Salz]
1817
1818 *) Removed old DES API.
1819 [Rich Salz]
1820
1821 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
1822 Sony NEWS4
1823 BEOS and BEOS_R5
1824 NeXT
1825 SUNOS
1826 MPE/iX
1827 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
1828 DGUX
1829 NCR
1830 Tandem
1831 Cray
1832 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
1833 [Rich Salz]
1834
1835 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
1836 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
1837 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
1838 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
1839 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
1840 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
1841 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
1842 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
1843 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
1844 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
1845 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
1846 [Rich Salz]
1847
1848 *) Cleaned up dead code
1849 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
1850 [Rich Salz]
1851
1852 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
1853 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
1854 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
1855 [Rich Salz]
1856
1857 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
1858 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
1859 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
1860 [Rich Salz]
1861
1862 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
1863 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
1864 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
1865
1866 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
1867 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
1868 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
1869
1870 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1871 compilation flags.
1872 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1873
1874 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1875 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1876 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1877
1878 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1879 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1880
1881 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1882 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1883 server.
1884
1885 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1886 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1887 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1888 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1889
1890 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1891 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1892 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1893 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1894
1895 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1896 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1897 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1898
1899 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1900 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1901 [Steve Henson]
1902
1903 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
1904
1905 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
1906 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
1907
1908 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
1909 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
1910
1911 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
1912 effect.
1913
1914 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
1915
1916 [Steve Henson]
1917
1918 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1919 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1920 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1921 algorithms and include tests cases.
1922 [Steve Henson]
1923
1924 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
1925 enveloped data.
1926 [Steve Henson]
1927
1928 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1929 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1930 [Steve Henson]
1931
1932 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1933 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1934
1935 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
1936 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
1937 [Steve Henson]
1938
1939 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
1940 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
1941 failures.
1942 [Steve Henson]
1943
1944 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
1945 sign or verify all in one operation.
1946 [Steve Henson]
1947
1948 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
1949 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
1950 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
1951 [Steve Henson]
1952
1953 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
1954 [Steve Henson]
1955
1956 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
1957 [Steve Henson]
1958
1959 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
1960 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
1961 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
1962 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
1963 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
1964 [Steve Henson]
1965
1966 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
1967 based on NID.
1968 [Steve Henson]
1969
1970 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
1971 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
1972 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
1973 [Steve Henson]
1974
1975 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
1976 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
1977
1978 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
1979 POST to handle HMAC cases.
1980 [Steve Henson]
1981
1982 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
1983 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
1984 [Steve Henson]
1985
1986 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
1987 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
1988 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1989 [Steve Henson]
1990
1991 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
1992 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
1993 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
1994 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
1995 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
1996 requested amount of entropy.
1997 [Steve Henson]
1998
1999 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
2000 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
2001 [Steve Henson]
2002
2003 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
2004 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
2005 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
2006 support.
2007 [Steve Henson]
2008
2009 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
2010 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
2011 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
2012 [Steve Henson]
2013
2014 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
2015 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
2016 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
2017 will never use XTS mode.
2018 [Steve Henson]
2019
2020 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
2021 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
2022 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
2023 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
2024 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
2025 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
2028 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
2029 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
2030 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
2031 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
2032 [Steve Henson]
2033
2034 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
2035 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
2036 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
2037 [Steve Henson]
2038
2039 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
2040 [Steve Henson]
2041
2042 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
2043 [Steve Henson]
2044
2045 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
2046 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
2047 [Steve Henson]
2048
2049 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
2050 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
2051 [Steve Henson]
2052
2053 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
2054 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
2055 [Steve Henson]
2056
2057 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
2058 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
2059 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
2060 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
2061 and rename any affected symbols.
2062 [Steve Henson]
2063
2064 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
2065 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
2066 [Steve Henson]
2067
2068 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
2069 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
2070 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
2071 [Steve Henson]
2072
2073 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2074 [Steve Henson]
2075
2076 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
2077 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
2078 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
2079 [Steve Henson]
2080
2081 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
2082 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
2083 [Steve Henson]
2084
2085 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
2086 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
2087 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
2088 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
2089 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
2090 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
2091 set before the key.
2092 [Steve Henson]
2093
2094 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
2095 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
2096 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
2097 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
2098 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
2099 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
2100 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
2101 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
2102 [Steve Henson]
2103
2104 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
2105 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
2106 [Steve Henson]
2107
2108 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
2109
2110 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2111 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2112
2113 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
2114 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
2115 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
2116 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
2117 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
2118 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
2119
2120 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
2121 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
2122 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
2123 security.
2124 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2125
2126 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
2127 parameters by name.
2128 [Steve Henson]
2129
2130 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
2131 Add CMAC pkey methods.
2132 [Steve Henson]
2133
2134 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
2135 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
2136 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
2137 [Steve Henson]
2138
2139 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
2140 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
2141 multi-process servers.
2142 [Steve Henson]
2143
2144 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
2145 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
2146 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
2147 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
2148 RAND_METHOD structure.
2149 [Steve Henson]
2150
2151 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
2152 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
2153 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
2154 whose return value is often ignored.
2155 [Steve Henson]
2156
2157 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
2158 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
2159 validated when establishing a connection.
2160 [Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>]
2161
2162 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
2163
2164 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
2165
2166 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
2167 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
2168 AES-NI.
2169
2170 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
2171 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
2172 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
2173 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
2174 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
2175 bytes.
2176
2177 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
2178 (CVE-2016-2107)
2179 [Kurt Roeckx]
2180
2181 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
2182
2183 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
2184 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
2185 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
2186 corruption.
2187
2188 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
2189 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
2190 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
2191 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
2192 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
2193 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
2194
2195 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2196 (CVE-2016-2105)
2197 [Matt Caswell]
2198
2199 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
2200
2201 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
2202 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
2203 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
2204 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
2205 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
2206 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
2207 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
2208 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
2209 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
2210 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
2211 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
2212 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
2213 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
2214 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
2215 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
2216 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
2217
2218 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2219 (CVE-2016-2106)
2220 [Matt Caswell]
2221
2222 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2223
2224 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2225 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2226 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2227
2228 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2229 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2230 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2231 applications are not affected.
2232
2233 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
2234 (CVE-2016-2109)
2235 [Stephen Henson]
2236
2237 *) EBCDIC overread
2238
2239 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2240 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2241 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
2242
2243 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2244 (CVE-2016-2176)
2245 [Matt Caswell]
2246
2247 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2248 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2249 [Todd Short]
2250
2251 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
2252 default.
2253 [Kurt Roeckx]
2254
2255 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
2256 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
2257 [Kurt Roeckx]
2258
2259 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2260
2261 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2262 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2263 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2264 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2265
2266 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2267 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2268 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2269 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2270 will need to explicitly call either of:
2271
2272 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2273 or
2274 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2275
2276 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2277 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2278 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2279 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2280 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
2281 (CVE-2016-0800)
2282 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2283
2284 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2285
2286 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2287 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2288 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2289 considered rare.
2290
2291 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2292 libFuzzer.
2293 (CVE-2016-0705)
2294 [Stephen Henson]
2295
2296 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2297
2298 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2299
2300 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2301 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2302 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2303 is configured.
2304
2305 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2306 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2307 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2308 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2309 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2310 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2311 that of a valid user.
2312 (CVE-2016-0798)
2313 [Emilia Käsper]
2314
2315 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2316
2317 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2318 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2319 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2320 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2321 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2322 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2323 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2324 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2325 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2326 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2327 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2328
2329 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2330 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2331 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2332 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2333 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
2334
2335 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
2336 (CVE-2016-0797)
2337 [Matt Caswell]
2338
2339 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2340
2341 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2342 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2343 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2344
2345 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2346 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2347 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2348 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2349 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2350 also occur.
2351
2352 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2353 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2354 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2355 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2356 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2357 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2358 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2359 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2360 as command line arguments.
2361
2362 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2363 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2364 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
2365
2366 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
2367 (CVE-2016-0799)
2368 [Matt Caswell]
2369
2370 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2371
2372 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2373 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2374 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2375 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2376 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2377
2378 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2379 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
2380 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
2381 http://cachebleed.info.

2384
2385 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
2386 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
2387 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
2388 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
2389 [Emilia Käsper]
2390
2391 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2392 *) DH small subgroups
2393
2394 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2395 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2396 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2397 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2398 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2399 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2400 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2401 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2402 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2403 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2404
2405 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2406 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2407 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2408 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2409 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2410
2411 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2412 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2413 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2414 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2415
2416 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2417 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
2418

2421 [Matt Caswell]
2422
2423 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
2424
2425 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
2426 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
2427 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2428 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

2437 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2438
2439 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2440 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2441 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2442 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2443 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2444 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2445 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2446 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2447 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2448 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2449 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2450 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2456 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
2457
2458 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2459 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2460 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2461 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2462 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
2463 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
2464 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
2465 authentication.

2470
2471 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
2472
2473 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
2474 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
2475 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
2476 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
2477
2478 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
2479 libFuzzer.
2480 (CVE-2015-3195)
2481 [Stephen Henson]
2482
2483 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2484 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
2485 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
2486 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
2487 [Emilia Käsper]
2488
2489 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
2490 return an error
2491 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
2492
2493 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
2494
2495 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
2496
2497 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
2498 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2499 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2500 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2501 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2502 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
2503
2504 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
2505 (Google/BoringSSL).
2506 [Matt Caswell]
2507
2508 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
2509
2510 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
2511 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
2512 restored.
2513 [Matt Caswell]
2514
2515 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
2516
2517 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
2518
2519 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
2520 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
2521 field.
2522
2523 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
2524 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
2525 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
2526 client authentication enabled.
2527
2528 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
2529 (CVE-2015-1788)
2530 [Andy Polyakov]
2531
2532 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
2533
2534 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
2535 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
2536 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
2537 time string.
2538
2539 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
2540 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
2541 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
2542 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
2543 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
2544 callbacks.
2545
2546 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
2547 independently by Hanno Böck.
2548 (CVE-2015-1789)
2549 [Emilia Käsper]
2550
2551 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
2552
2553 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
2554 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
2555 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2556
2557 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
2558 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
2559 servers are not affected.
2560
2561 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2562 (CVE-2015-1790)
2563 [Emilia Käsper]
2564
2565 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
2566
2567 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
2568 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
2569 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
2570 the CMS code.
2571 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
2572 (CVE-2015-1792)
2573 [Stephen Henson]
2574
2575 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
2576
2577 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
2578 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
2579 a double free of the ticket data.
2580 (CVE-2015-1791)
2581 [Matt Caswell]
2582
2583 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
2584 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
2585 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
2586 [Emilia Kasper]
2587
2588 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
2589
2590 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
2591
2592 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
2593 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
2594 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
2595
2596 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
2597 University.
2598 (CVE-2015-0291)
2599 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
2600
2601 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
2602
2603 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
2604 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
2605 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
2606 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
2607 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
2608 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
2609 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
2610 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
2611
2612 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
2613 (CVE-2015-0290)
2614 [Matt Caswell]
2615
2616 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
2617
2618 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
2619 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
2620 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
2621 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
2622 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
2623 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
2624 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
2625 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
2626 server.
2627
2628 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
2629 (CVE-2015-0207)
2630 [Matt Caswell]
2631
2632 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
2633
2634 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
2635 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
2636 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
2637 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2638 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2639 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2640 (CVE-2015-0286)
2641 [Stephen Henson]
2642
2643 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
2644
2645 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2646 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2647 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
2648 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
2649 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2650 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2651 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2652
2653 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
2654 (CVE-2015-0208)
2655 [Stephen Henson]
2656
2657 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
2658
2659 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
2660 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
2661 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
2662
2663 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
2664 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
2665 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
2666 not affected.
2667 (CVE-2015-0287)
2668 [Stephen Henson]
2669
2670 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
2671
2672 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
2673 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
2674 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2675
2676 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
2677 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
2678 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
2679
2680 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2681 (CVE-2015-0289)
2682 [Emilia Käsper]
2683
2684 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
2685
2686 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
2687 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
2688 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
2689
2690 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
2691 (OpenSSL development team).
2692 (CVE-2015-0293)
2693 [Emilia Käsper]
2694
2695 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
2696
2697 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
2698 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
2699 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
2700 (CVE-2015-1787)
2701 [Matt Caswell]
2702
2703 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
2704
2705 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
2706 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
2707 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
2708 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
2709 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
2710 SSL_client_methodv23)
2711 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
2712 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
2713
2714 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
2715 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
2716 output may be predictable.
2717
2718 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
2719 succeed on an unpatched platform:
2720
2721 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
2722 (CVE-2015-0285)
2723 [Matt Caswell]
2724
2725 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
2726
2727 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
2728 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
2729 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
2730 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
2731 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
2732 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
2733
2734 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
2735 commit 517073cd4b.
2736 (CVE-2015-0209)
2737 [Matt Caswell]
2738
2739 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
2740
2741 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
2742 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
2743
2744 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
2745 (CVE-2015-0288)
2746 [Stephen Henson]
2747
2748 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
2749 [Kurt Roeckx]
2750
2751 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
2752
2753 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
2754 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
2755 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
2756 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
2757 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
2758 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
2759 [Andy Polyakov]
2760
2761 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
2762 (other platforms pending).
2763 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
2764
2765 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
2766 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
2767 [Rob Stradling]
2768
2769 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2770 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2771 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2772 [Bodo Moeller]
2773
2774 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
2775 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
2776 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
2777 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
2778 [Andy Polyakov]
2779
2780 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
2781 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
2782
2783 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
2784 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
2785 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
2786 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
2787 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
2788
2789 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
2790 [Andy Polyakov]
2791
2792 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
2793 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
2794 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
2795 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
2796
2797 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
2798 RSAZ.
2799 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
2800
2801 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
2802 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
2803 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
2804 for TLS encrypt.
2805
2806 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
2807 [Andy Polyakov]
2808
2809 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
2810 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
2811 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
2812 [Steve Henson]
2813
2814 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2815 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2816 [Steve Henson]
2817
2818 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2819 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2820 [Steve Henson]
2821
2822 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2823 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2824 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2825 algorithms and include tests cases.
2826 [Steve Henson]
2827
2828 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
2829 structure.
2830 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
2831
2832 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
2833 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
2834 [Steve Henson]
2835
2836 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
2837 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
2838 summary of the connection parameters.
2839 [Steve Henson]
2840
2841 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
2842 of connection parameters.
2843 [Steve Henson]
2844
2845 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
2846 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
2847
2848 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
2849 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
2850 [Steve Henson]
2851
2852 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
2853 [Steve Henson]
2854
2855 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
2856 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
2857 [Steve Henson]
2858
2859 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
2860 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
2861 [Steve Henson]
2862
2863 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
2864 certificates.
2865 [Steve Henson]
2866
2867 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
2868 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
2869 CRLs using the OCSP API.
2870 [Steve Henson]
2871
2872 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
2873 [Steve Henson]
2874
2875 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
2876 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
2877 [Steve Henson]
2878
2879 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
2880 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
2881 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
2882 tracing.
2883 [Steve Henson]
2884
2885 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
2886 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
2887 [Steve Henson]
2888
2889 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
2890 OID NID.
2891 [Steve Henson]
2892
2893 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
2894 client to OpenSSL.
2895 [Steve Henson]
2896
2897 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
2898 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
2899 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
2900 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
2901 [Steve Henson]
2902
2903 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
2904 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
2905 [Steve Henson]
2906
2907 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
2908 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
2909 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
2910 comparison.
2911 [Steve Henson]
2912
2913 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
2914 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
2915 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
2916 use the certificate.
2917 [Steve Henson]
2918
2919 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
2920 [Steve Henson]
2921
2922 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
2923 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
2924 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
2925 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
2926 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
2927 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
2928 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
2929
2930 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
2931 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
2932
2933 [Steve Henson]
2934
2935 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
2936 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
2937 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
2938 [Steve Henson]
2939
2940 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
2941 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
2942 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
2943 supported signature algorithms.
2944 [Steve Henson]
2945
2946 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
2947 [Steve Henson]
2948
2949 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
2950 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
2951 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
2952 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
2953 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
2954 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
2955 certificate and specify the whole chain.
2956 [Steve Henson]
2957
2958 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
2959 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
2960 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
2961 to have similar checks in it.
2962
2963 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
2964 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
2965 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
2966 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
2967 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
2968 [Steve Henson]
2969
2970 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
2971 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
2972 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
2973 shared signature algorithms.
2974 [Steve Henson]
2975
2976 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
2977 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
2978 to support them.
2979 [Steve Henson]
2980
2981 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
2982 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
2983 it couldn't be removed.
2984 [Steve Henson]
2985
2986 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
2987 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
2988 [Steve Henson]
2989
2990 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
2991 functions. Add manual page.
2992 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
2993
2994 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
2995 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
2996 a certificate.
2997 [Steve Henson]
2998
2999 *) Fix OCSP checking.
3000 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
3001
3002 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
3003 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
3004 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
3005 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
3006 utility) or reject.
3007 [Steve Henson]
3008
3009 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
3010 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
3011 [Steve Henson]
3012
3013 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
3014 platform support for Linux and Android.
3015 [Andy Polyakov]
3016
3017 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
3018 [Andy Polyakov]
3019
3020 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
3021 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
3022 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
3023 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
3024 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
3025 [Steve Henson]
3026
3027 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
3028 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
3029 the new parameter format automatically.
3030 [Steve Henson]
3031
3032 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
3033 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
3034 [Steve Henson]
3035
3036 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
3037 [Steve Henson]
3038
3039 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
3040 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
3041 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
3042 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
3043 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
3044 [Steve Henson]
3045
3046 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
3047 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
3048 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
3049 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
3050 to set list of supported curves.
3051 [Steve Henson]
3052
3053 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
3054 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
3055 to print out received values.
3056 [Steve Henson]
3057
3058 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
3059 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
3060 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
3061 [Steve Henson]
3062
3063 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
3064 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
3065 [Steve Henson]
3066
3067 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
3068 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
3069 [Steve Henson]
3070
3071 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
3072 certificates.
3073 [Steve Henson]
3074
3075 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
3076 the certificate.
3077 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
3078 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
3079 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
3080
3081 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
3082
3083 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
3084 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
3085
3086 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
3087
3088 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
3089 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
3090 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
3091 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
3092 (CVE-2014-3571)
3093 [Steve Henson]
3094
3095 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
3096 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
3097 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
3098 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
3099 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
3100 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
3101 (CVE-2015-0206)
3102 [Matt Caswell]
3103
3104 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
3105 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
3106 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
3107 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
3108 (CVE-2014-3569)
3109 [Kurt Roeckx]
3110
3111 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
3112 ECDH ciphersuites.
3113
3114 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
3115 reporting this issue.
3116 (CVE-2014-3572)
3117 [Steve Henson]
3118
3119 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
3120 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
3121 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
3122 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
3123 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
3124 INRIA or reporting this issue.
3125 (CVE-2015-0204)
3126 [Steve Henson]
3127
3128 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
3129 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
3130 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
3131 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
3132 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
3133 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
3134 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
3135 this issue.
3136 (CVE-2015-0205)
3137 [Steve Henson]
3138
3139 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
3140 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
3141
3142 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
3143 and can vary with the CTX.
3144 [Adam Langley]
3145
3146 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
3147
3148 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
3149 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
3150 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
3151 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
3152 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
3153
3154 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
3155
3156 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
3157 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
3158
3159 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
3160
3161 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
3162 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
3163 errors for some broken certificates.
3164
3165 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
3166
3167 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
3168
3169 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
3170 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
3171
3172 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
3173 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
3174 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
3175 (negative or with leading zeroes).
3176
3177 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
3178 of the OpenSSL core team.
3179
3180 (CVE-2014-8275)
3181 [Steve Henson]
3182
3183 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
3184 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
3185 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
3186 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
3187 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
3188 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
3189 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
3190 the OpenSSL core team.
3191 (CVE-2014-3570)
3192 [Andy Polyakov]
3193
3194 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
3195 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
3196 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
3197 sanity and breaks all known clients.
3198 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
3199
3200 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
3201 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
3202 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
3203 [Emilia Käsper]
3204
3205 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
3206 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
3207 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3208 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
3209 announced in the initial ServerHello.
3210
3211 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
3212 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3213 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
3214 [Emilia Käsper]
3215
3216 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
3217
3218 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
3219
3220 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
3221 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
3222 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3223 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3224 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3225 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3226 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3227
3228 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3229 (CVE-2014-3513)
3230 [OpenSSL team]
3231
3232 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3233
3234 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3235 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3236 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3237 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3238 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3239 attack.
3240 (CVE-2014-3567)
3241 [Steve Henson]
3242
3243 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3244
3245 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3246 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3247 configured to send them.
3248 (CVE-2014-3568)
3249 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3250
3251 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3252 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3253 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3254 (CVE-2014-3566)
3255 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3256
3257 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3258
3259 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3260 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3261 DigestInfo structures.
3262
3263 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
3264
3265 [Steve Henson]
3266
3267 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3268
3269 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3270 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3271 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3272
3273 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3274 Group for discovering this issue.
3275 (CVE-2014-3512)
3276 [Steve Henson]
3277
3278 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3279 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3280 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3281 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3282 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3283
3284 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3285 researching this issue.
3286 (CVE-2014-3511)
3287 [David Benjamin]
3288
3289 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3290 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3291 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3292 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3293
3294 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3295 issue.
3296 (CVE-2014-3510)
3297 [Emilia Käsper]
3298
3299 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3300 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3301 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3302 (CVE-2014-3507)
3303 [Adam Langley]
3304
3305 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3306 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3307 Denial of Service attack.
3308 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3309 (CVE-2014-3506)
3310 [Adam Langley]
3311
3312 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3313 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3314 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3315 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3316 this issue.
3317 (CVE-2014-3505)
3318 [Adam Langley]
3319
3320 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3321 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3322 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3323
3324 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3325 issue.
3326 (CVE-2014-3509)
3327 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3328
3329 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3330 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3331 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3332 Denial of Service attack.
3333
3334 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3335 discovering and researching this issue.
3336 (CVE-2014-5139)
3337 [Steve Henson]
3338
3339 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3340 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3341 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3342 output to the attacker.
3343
3344 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3345 (CVE-2014-3508)
3346 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3347
3348 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3349 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3350 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3351 [Bodo Moeller]
3352
3353 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3354
3355 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3356 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3357 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3358
3359 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3360 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3361 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3362
3363 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3364 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3365 in a DoS attack.
3366
3367 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3368 (CVE-2014-0221)
3369 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3370
3371 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3372 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3373 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3374 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3375
3376 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3377 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3378
3379 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3380 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3381
3382 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3383 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3384 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3385
3386 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3387 compilation flags.
3388 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3389
3390 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3391 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3392 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3393
3394 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3395 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3396
3397 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3398
3399 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3400 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3401 server.
3402
3403 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3404 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3405 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3406 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3407
3408 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3409 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3410 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3411 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3412
3413 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3414 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3415 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3416
3417 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3418
3419 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3420 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3421 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3422 is at least 512 bytes long.
3423
3424 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
3425
3426 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3427
3428 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3429 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3430 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3431 (CVE-2013-4353)
3432
3433 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3434 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3435 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3436 [Steve Henson]
3437
3438 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3439 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3440 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3441 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3442 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3443 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3444 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3445
3446 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3447
3448 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3449 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3450 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3451
3452 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3453
3454 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3455
3456 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3457 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3458 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3459
3460 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3461 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3462 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
3463 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
3464 (CVE-2013-0169)
3465 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3466
3467 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3468 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3469 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
3470 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
3471 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
3472 (CVE-2012-2686)
3473 [Adam Langley]
3474
3475 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3476 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3477 [Steve Henson]
3478
3479 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3480 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3481
3482 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3483 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3484 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3485 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
3486 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
3487
3488 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3489 [Steve Henson]
3490
3491 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3492 if renegotiating.
3493 [Steve Henson]
3494
3495 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3496
3497 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3498 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3499
3500 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3501 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3502 (CVE-2012-2333)
3503 [Steve Henson]
3504
3505 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3506 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3507 [Steve Henson]
3508
3509 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3510 approved.
3511 [Steve Henson]
3512
3513 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
3514
3515 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
3516 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
3517 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
3518 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
3519 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
3520 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
3521 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
3522 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
3523 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
3524 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
3525 [Steve Henson]
3526
3527 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
3528 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
3529 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
3530 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
3531 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
3532 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
3533 client side.
3534 [Andy Polyakov]
3535
3536 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
3537
3538 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
3539 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
3540 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
3541
3542 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
3543 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
3544 (CVE-2012-2110)
3545 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
3546
3547 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
3548 [Adam Langley]
3549
3550 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
3551 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
3552
3553 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
3554 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
3555 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
3556 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
3557 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
3558 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
3559 Most broken servers should now work.
3560 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
3561 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
3562 [Steve Henson]
3563
3564 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
3565 [Andy Polyakov]
3566
3567 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
3568
3569 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
3570 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
3571 [Steve Henson]
3572
3573 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
3574 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
3575 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
3576 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
3577 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
3578 [Steve Henson]
3579
3580 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
3581 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
3582 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
3583 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
3584 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
3585 [Steve Henson]
3586
3587 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
3588 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3589
3590 *) Add support for SCTP.
3591 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3592
3593 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3594 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3595
3596 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
3597
3598 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
3599 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
3600 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
3601 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
3602 - s390x: z196 support;
3603 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
3604
3605 [Andy Polyakov]
3606
3607 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
3608 (removal of unnecessary code)
3609 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
3610
3611 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
3612 [Eric Rescorla]
3613
3614 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
3615 [Eric Rescorla]
3616
3617 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
3618 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
3619 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
3620 by Google.
3621 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3622
3623 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
3624 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
3625 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
3626 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
3627 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
3628
3629 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
3630 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
3631 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
3632
3633 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
3634 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
3635 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
3636
3637 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
3638 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
3639 implementations).
3640 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3641
3642 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
3643 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
3644 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
3645 [Steve Henson]
3646
3647 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
3648 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
3649 particular PSS.
3650 [Steve Henson]
3651
3652 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
3653 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
3654 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
3655 [Steve Henson]
3656
3657 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
3658 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
3659 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
3660 the appropriate parameters.
3661 [Steve Henson]
3662
3663 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
3664 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
3665 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
3666 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
3667 against a number of sample certificates.
3668 [Steve Henson]
3669
3670 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
3671 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
3672
3673 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
3674 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
3675
3676 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
3677 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
3678 parameters r, s.
3679 [Steve Henson]
3680
3681 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
3682 RFC3211.
3683 [Steve Henson]
3684
3685 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
3686 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
3687 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
3688 password based CMS).
3689 [Steve Henson]
3690
3691 *) Session-handling fixes:
3692 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
3693 but also support Session Tickets.
3694 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
3695 presented a ticket with an expired session.
3696 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
3697 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
3698 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
3699 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3700
3701 *) Fix PSK session representation.
3702 [Bodo Moeller]
3703
3704 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
3705
3706 This work was sponsored by Intel.
3707 [Andy Polyakov]
3708
3709 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
3710 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
3711 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
3712 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
3713 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
3714 [Steve Henson]
3715
3716 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
3717 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
3718 [Steve Henson]
3719
3720 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
3721 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
3722 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
3723 [Steve Henson]
3724
3725 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
3726 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
3727 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
3728 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
3729 [Steve Henson]
3730
3731 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
3732 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
3733 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
3734 [Steve Henson]
3735
3736 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
3737 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
3738
3739 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
3740 [Steve Henson]
3741
3742 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
3743 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
3744 [Steve Henson]
3745
3746 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
3747 [Steve Henson]
3748
3749 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
3750 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
3751 [Steve Henson]
3752
3753 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
3754 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
3755 [Steve Henson]
3756
3757 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
3758 [Steve Henson]
3759
3760 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
3761 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
3762 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
3763 [Steve Henson]
3764
3765 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3766 [Steve Henson]
3767
3768 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3769 [Steve Henson]
3770
3771 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
3772 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
3773 [Steve Henson]
3774
3775 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
3776 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
3777 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
3778 [Steve Henson]
3779
3780 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
3781 [Steve Henson]
3782
3783 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
3784 and enable MD5.
3785 [Steve Henson]
3786
3787 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
3788 FIPS modules versions.
3789 [Steve Henson]
3790
3791 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
3792 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
3793 until after the certificate request message is received.
3794 [Steve Henson]
3795
3796 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
3797 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
3798 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
3799 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
3800 [Steve Henson]
3801
3802 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
3803 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
3804 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
3805 support yet and no support for client certificates.
3806 [Steve Henson]
3807
3808 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
3809 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
3810 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
3811 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
3812 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
3813 and version checking.
3814 [Steve Henson]
3815
3816 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
3817 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
3818 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
3819 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
3820 [Steve Henson]
3821
3822 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
3823 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
3824 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
3825 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
3826 Ben Laurie]
3827
3828 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
3829 [Steve Henson]
3830
3831 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
3832 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
3833 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3834
3835 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
3836 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
3837 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
3838 [Steve Henson]
3839
3840 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
3841 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
3842
3843 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
3844 a few changes are required:
3845
3846 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
3847 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
3848 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
3849 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
3850 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
3851 [Steve Henson]
3852
3853 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
3854
3855 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
3856 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
3857 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
3858 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
3859 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3860 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
3861 an MMA defence is not necessary.
3862 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
3863 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
3864 [Steve Henson]
3865
3866 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
3867 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
3868 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
3869 [Steve Henson]
3870
3871 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
3872
3873 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
3874 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
3875 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
3876 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
3877 [Antonio Martin]
3878
3879 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
3880
3881 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
3882 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
3883 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
3884 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
3885 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
3886 paper describing this attack can be found at:
3887 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
3888 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3889 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3890 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
3891 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
3892 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
3893 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
3894
3895 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
3896 (CVE-2011-4576)
3897 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3898
3899 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
3900 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
3901 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
3902 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3903
3904 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
3905 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
3906
3907 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
3908 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
3909 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
3910 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3911
3912 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3913 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3914
3915 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
3916 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3917
3918 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
3919 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3920
3921 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
3922 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
3923 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3924
3925 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
3926 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
3927 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
3928
3929 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
3930 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
3931 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
3932 the last update always remained unused).
3933 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3934
3935 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
3936 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
3937
3938 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
3939
3940 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
3941 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
3942 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
3943
3944 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
3945 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
3946 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3947
3948 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
3949 [Bodo Moeller]
3950
3951 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
3952 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
3953 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
3954 [Steve Henson]
3955
3956 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
3957 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
3958

3960
3961 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
3962
3963 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
3964
3965 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
3966 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3967
3968 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
3969 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
3970 ambiguous.
3971 [Steve Henson]
3972
3973 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
3974
3975 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
3976 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
3977 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
3978 [Steve Henson]
3979
3980 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
3981 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
3982 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
3983 [Ben Laurie]
3984
3985 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
3986
3987 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
3988 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
3989 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
3990 [Steve Henson]
3991
3992 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
3993 a DLL.
3994 [Steve Henson]
3995
3996 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
3997
3998 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
3999 (CVE-2010-1633)
4000 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
4001
4002 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
4003
4004 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
4005 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
4006 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
4007 [Steve Henson]
4008
4009 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
4010 [Steve Henson]
4011
4012 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
4013 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
4014 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
4015
4016 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
4017 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
4018 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
4019 [Steve Henson]
4020
4021 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
4022 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
4023 [Steve Henson]
4024
4025 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
4026 some responders need this.
4027 [Steve Henson]
4028
4029 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
4030 correctly.
4031 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4032
4033 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
4034 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
4035 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
4036 [Steve Henson]
4037
4038 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
4039 [Steve Henson]
4040
4041 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
4042 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
4043 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
4044 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
4045 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
4046 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
4047 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
4048 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
4049 [Steve Henson]
4050
4051 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
4052 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
4053 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
4054 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4055
4056 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
4057 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
4058
4059 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
4060 be used on C++.
4061 [Steve Henson]
4062
4063 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
4064 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
4065 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
4066 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
4067 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
4068 attempting to work them out.
4069 [Steve Henson]
4070
4071 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
4072 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
4073 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
4074 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
4075 [Steve Henson]
4076
4077 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
4078 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
4079 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
4080 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
4081 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
4082 [Steve Henson]
4083
4084 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
4085 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
4086 you can do:
4087
4088 openssl sha256 foo
4089
4090 as well as:
4091
4092 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
4093
4094 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
4095
4096 [Steve Henson]
4097
4098 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
4099 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4100
4101 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
4102 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
4103
4104 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
4105 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
4106 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
4107 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
4108 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
4109 [Steve Henson]
4110
4111 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
4112 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
4113 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
4114 [Steve Henson]
4115
4116 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
4117 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
4118 [Steve Henson]
4119
4120 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
4121 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
4122
4123 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
4124 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
4125 [Steve Henson]
4126
4127 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
4128 [Ben Laurie]
4129
4130 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
4131 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
4132 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
4133 CONF_VALUE.
4134 [Ben Laurie]
4135
4136 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
4137 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
4138 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
4139 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
4140 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
4141 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
4142 [Steve Henson]
4143
4144 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
4145 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
4146
4147 This work was sponsored by Google.
4148 [Steve Henson]
4149
4150 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
4151 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
4152 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
4153 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
4154 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
4155 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
4156 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
4157 default.
4158
4159 This work was sponsored by Google.
4160 [Steve Henson]
4161
4162 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
4163
4164 This work was sponsored by Google.
4165 [Steve Henson]
4166
4167 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
4168 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
4169 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4170 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
4171
4172 This work was sponsored by Google.
4173 [Steve Henson]
4174
4175 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
4176 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
4177 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
4178 CRL functionality in future.
4179
4180 This work was sponsored by Google.
4181 [Steve Henson]
4182
4183 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
4184
4185 This work was sponsored by Google.
4186 [Steve Henson]
4187
4188 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
4189 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
4190
4191 This work was sponsored by Google.
4192 [Steve Henson]
4193
4194 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
4195 and URI types are currently supported.
4196
4197 This work was sponsored by Google.
4198 [Steve Henson]
4199
4200 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
4201 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
4202 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
4203 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
4204 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
4205 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
4206 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
4207 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
4208
4209 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
4210 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
4211 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
4212
4213 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
4214 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
4215 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
4216 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
4217
4218 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
4219 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
4220 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
4221 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
4222 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4223 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4224 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4225 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4226 of &errno.)
4227 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4228
4229 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4230 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4231 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4232
4233 This work was sponsored by Google.
4234 [Steve Henson]
4235
4236 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4237 [Ben Laurie]
4238
4239 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4240 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4241 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4242 [Ben Laurie]
4243
4244 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4245 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4246 [Nick Mathewson]
4247
4248 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4249 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4250 [Ben Laurie]
4251
4252 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4253 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4254 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4255 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4256 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4257 content types and variants.
4258 [Steve Henson]
4259
4260 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4261 [Steve Henson]
4262
4263 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4264 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4265 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4266 files from the associated perl scripts.
4267 [Steve Henson]
4268
4269 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4270 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4271 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4272
4273 *) s390x assembler pack.
4274 [Andy Polyakov]
4275
4276 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4277 "family."
4278 [Andy Polyakov]
4279
4280 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4281 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4282 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4283 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4284 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4285 to use. For example, specify an option
4286
4287 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4288
4289 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4290 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4291 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4292 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4293 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4294 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4295
4296 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4297 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4298 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4299 return non-zero for success.
4300
4301 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4302 by using
4303
4304 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4305 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4306
4307 where
4308
4309 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4310 void *arg;
4311
4312 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4313 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4314 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4315 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4316 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4317 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4318 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4319 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4320 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4321
4322 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4323 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4324 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4325 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4326 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4327 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4328
4329 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4330 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4331 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4332 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4333 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4334 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4335
4336 [Bodo Moeller]
4337
4338 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4339 MAC.
4340
4341 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4342
4343 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4344 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4345 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4346 supported.
4347
4348 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4349 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4350 SSL_SESSION.
4351
4352 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4353 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4354 with no application modification.
4355
4356 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4357 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4358
4359 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4360 or server extensions to be examined.
4361
4362 This work was sponsored by Google.
4363 [Steve Henson]
4364
4365 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4366 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4367 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4368
4369 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4370 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4371 ciphersuite support.
4372 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4373
4374 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4375 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4376 to output in BER and PEM format.
4377 [Steve Henson]
4378
4379 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4380 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4381 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4382 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4383 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4384 [Steve Henson]
4385
4386 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4387 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4388 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4389 utility.
4390 [Steve Henson]
4391
4392 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4393 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4394 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4395 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4396 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4397 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4398 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4399 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4400 enabled again.
4401
4402 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4403 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4404 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4405 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4406
4407 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4408 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4409 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4410 the default order.
4411 [Bodo Moeller]
4412
4413 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4414 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4415 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4416 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4417 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4418 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4419 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4420 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4421 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4422
4423 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4424 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4425 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4426 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4427 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4428 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4429 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4430 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4431 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4432 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4433 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4434 kinds of kludges.
4435
4436 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4437 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4438 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4439
4440 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4441 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4442 "CAMELLIA256".
4443 [Bodo Moeller]
4444
4445 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4446 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4447 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4448 [Nils Larsch]
4449
4450 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4451 it yet and it is largely untested.
4452 [Steve Henson]
4453
4454 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4455 [Nils Larsch]
4456
4457 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4458 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4459 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4460 [Steve Henson]
4461
4462 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4463 [Andy Polyakov]
4464
4465 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4466 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4467 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4468 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4469 [Steve Henson]
4470
4471 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4472 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4473 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4474 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4475 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4476 [Steve Henson]
4477
4478 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4479 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4480 [Cryptocom]
4481
4482 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4483 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4484 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4485 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4486 [Steve Henson]
4487
4488 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4489 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4490 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4491 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4492 [Steve Henson]
4493
4494 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4495 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4496 [Steve Henson]
4497
4498 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4499 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4500 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4501 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4502 [Steve Henson]
4503
4504 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4505 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4506 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4507 [Steve Henson]
4508
4509 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4510 utility.
4511 [Steve Henson]
4512
4513 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
4514 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
4515 [Steve Henson]
4516
4517 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
4518 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
4519 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
4520 if necessary.
4521 [Steve Henson]
4522
4523 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
4524 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
4525 to free up any added signature OIDs.
4526 [Steve Henson]
4527
4528 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
4529 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
4530 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
4531 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
4532 [Steve Henson]
4533
4534 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
4535 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
4536 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
4537 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
4538 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
4539 the array representation useful in a more general context.
4540 [Douglas Stebila]
4541
4542 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
4543 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
4544 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
4545 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
4546 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
4547
4548 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
4549 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
4550 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
4551 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
4552 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
4553 protocol).
4554
4555 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
4556 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
4557 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
4558 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
4559
4560 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
4561 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
4562 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
4563 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
4564 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
4565
4566 aECDH - ECDH cert
4567 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
4568 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
4569
4570 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
4571 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
4572
4573 [Bodo Moeller]
4574
4575 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
4576 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
4577 [Steve Henson]
4578
4579 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
4580 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
4581 [Steve Henson]
4582
4583 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
4584 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
4585 functional reference processing.
4586 [Steve Henson]
4587
4588 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
4589 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
4590 process.
4591 [Steve Henson]
4592
4593 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
4594 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
4595 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
4596 [Steve Henson]
4597
4598 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
4599 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
4600 application to support multiple signers.
4601 [Steve Henson]
4602
4603 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
4604 digest MAC.
4605 [Steve Henson]
4606
4607 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
4608 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
4609 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
4610 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
4611 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
4612 [Steve Henson]
4613
4614 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
4615 new API.
4616 [Steve Henson]
4617
4618 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
4619 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
4620 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
4621 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
4622 a no op.
4623 [Steve Henson]
4624
4625 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
4626 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
4627 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
4628 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
4629 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
4630 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
4631 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
4632 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
4633 [Steve Henson]
4634
4635 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
4636 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
4637 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
4638 between digests and public key types.
4639 [Steve Henson]
4640
4641 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
4642 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
4643 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
4644 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
4645 [Steve Henson]
4646
4647 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
4648 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
4649 key ASN1 method.
4650 [Steve Henson]
4651
4652 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
4653 [Steve Henson]
4654
4655 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
4656 pkeyutl.
4657 [Steve Henson]
4658
4659 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
4660 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
4661 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
4662 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
4663 pkey, genpkey.
4664 [Steve Henson]
4665
4666 *) BeOS support.
4667 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4668
4669 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
4670 manual pages.
4671 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4672
4673 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
4674 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
4675 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
4676 functionality for RSA.
4677 [Steve Henson]
4678
4679 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
4680 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
4681 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
4682 [Steve Henson]
4683
4684 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
4685 key API, doesn't do much yet.
4686 [Steve Henson]
4687
4688 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
4689 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
4690 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
4691 [Steve Henson]
4692
4693 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
4694 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4695 [Douglas Stebila]
4696
4697 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
4698 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
4699 [Steve Henson]
4700
4701 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
4702 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
4703 type.
4704 [Steve Henson]
4705
4706 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
4707 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
4708 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
4709 structure.
4710 [Steve Henson]
4711
4712 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
4713 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
4714 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
4715 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
4716 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
4717 of public and private key structures.
4718 [Steve Henson]
4719
4720 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
4721 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4722 [Douglas Stebila]
4723
4724 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
4725 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
4726 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
4727
4728 New ciphersuites:
4729 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
4730 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
4731
4732 New functions:
4733 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
4734 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
4735 SSL_get_psk_identity
4736 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
4737
4738 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
4739
4740 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
4741 and response verification functionality.
4742 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
4743
4744 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4745 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4746 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4747 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4748 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4749 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4750 server_name extension.
4751
4752 New functions (subject to change):
4753
4754 SSL_get_servername()
4755 SSL_get_servername_type()
4756 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4757
4758 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4759
4760 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4761 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4762 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4763 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4764 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4765
4766 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4767
4768 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4769 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4770 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4771 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4772 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4773 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4774 option.
4775
4776 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
4777
4778 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
4779 [Andy Polyakov]
4780
4781 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
4782 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
4783 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
4784 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
4785 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
4786 [Andy Polyakov]
4787
4788 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
4789 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
4790 macro.
4791 [Bodo Moeller]
4792
4793 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
4794 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
4795 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
4796 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
4797 [Andy Polyakov]
4798
4799 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
4800 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
4801 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
4802 using the maximum available value.
4803 [Steve Henson]
4804
4805 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
4806 in addition to the text details.
4807 [Bodo Moeller]
4808
4809 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
4810 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
4811 handle several customised structures at all.
4812 [Steve Henson]
4813
4814 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
4815 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
4816 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
4817 [Steve Henson]
4818
4819 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
4820 [Steve Henson]
4821
4822 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
4823 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
4824 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
4825 [Steve Henson]
4826
4827 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
4828 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
4829 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
4830 [Nils Larsch]
4831
4832 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
4833 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
4834 all fields.
4835 [Steve Henson]
4836
4837 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
4838 [Steve Henson]
4839
4840 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
4841 [NTT]
4842
4843 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
4844
4845 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
4846 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
4847 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
4848 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
4849 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
4850 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
4851 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
4852 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
4853
4854 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
4855 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
4856 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
4857
4858 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
4859
4860 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
4861 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
4862
4863 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
4864 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
4865 [Bodo Moeller]
4866
4867 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
4868 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
4869 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
4870 [Steve Henson]
4871
4872 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
4873 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
4874 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
4875 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
4876 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
4877 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
4878 [Steve Henson]
4879
4880 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
4881 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
4882 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
4883 [Steve Henson]
4884
4885 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
4886 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
4887 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
4888 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
4889 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
4890 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
4891 CVE-2009-4355.
4892 [Steve Henson]
4893
4894 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
4895 change when encrypting or decrypting.
4896 [Bodo Moeller]
4897
4898 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
4899 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
4900 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
4901 [Steve Henson]
4902
4903 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
4904 [Steve Henson]
4905
4906 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
4907 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
4908 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
4909 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
4910 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
4911 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
4912 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
4913 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
4914 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
4915 [Steve Henson]
4916
4917 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
4918 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
4919 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
4920 [Steve Henson]
4921
4922 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
4923 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
4924 [Steve Henson]
4925
4926 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
4927 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
4928 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
4929 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
4930 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
4931 know what you are doing.
4932 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
4933
4934 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
4935 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
4936 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
4937 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
4938 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
4939 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
4940 the handshake.
4941 [Steve Henson]
4942
4943 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
4944 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
4945 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
4946 correctly.
4947 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4948
4949 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
4950 warnings in other configurations.
4951 [Steve Henson]
4952
4953 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
4954 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
4955 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
4956 systems need.
4957 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
4958
4959 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
4960 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
4961 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
4962
4963 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
4964 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
4965 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
4966 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
4967 [Steve Henson]
4968
4969 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
4970 and restored.
4971 [Steve Henson]
4972
4973 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
4974 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
4975 clash.
4976 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4977
4978 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
4979 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
4980 other than a simple chain.
4981 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
4982
4983 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
4984 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
4985 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
4986 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
4987 [Steve Henson]
4988
4989 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
4990 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
4991 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
4992 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
4993 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
4994 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
4995 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
4996 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
4997 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4998
4999 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
5000 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
5001 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
5002 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
5003 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
5004 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
5005 (CVE-2009-1377)
5006 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5007
5008 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
5009 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
5010 [Daniel Mentz]
5011
5012 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
5013 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
5014
5015 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
5016 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
5017
5018 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
5019
5020 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
5021 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
5022 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
5023 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
5024 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
5025 you're doing.
5026 [Ben Laurie]
5027
5028 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
5029
5030 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
5031 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
5032 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
5033 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
5034
5035 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
5036 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
5037 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
5038 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5039
5040 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
5041 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
5042 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
5043 [Steve Henson]
5044
5045 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
5046 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
5047 level.
5048 [Steve Henson]
5049
5050 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
5051 to handle some structures.
5052 [Steve Henson]
5053
5054 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
5055 for a '\n'
5056 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
5057
5058 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
5059 [Matthieu Herrb]
5060
5061 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
5062 [Steve Henson]
5063
5064 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
5065 [Steve Henson]
5066
5067 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
5068 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
5069 chosen compiler.
5070 [Ben Laurie]
5071
5072 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
5073
5074 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
5075 (CVE-2008-5077).
5076 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
5077
5078 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
5079 [Ben Laurie]
5080
5081 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
5082 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
5083 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
5084 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
5085
5086 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
5087 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
5088
5089 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
5090 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
5091 [Bodo Moeller]
5092
5093 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
5094 s_client and s_server.
5095 [Ben Laurie]
5096
5097 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
5098 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
5099
5100 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
5101 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
5102
5103 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
5104 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
5105 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
5106 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
5107 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
5108 [Bodo Moeller]
5109
5110 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
5111
5112 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
5113 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
5114 [PR #1679]
5115
5116 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
5117 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
5118 [Nagendra Modadugu]
5119
5120 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
5121 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
5122 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
5123 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
5124
5125 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
5126 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
5127
5128 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
5129
5130 *) Various precautionary measures:
5131
5132 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
5133
5134 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
5135 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
5136 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
5137
5138 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
5139 outside the expected range.
5140
5141 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
5142 builds.
5143
5144 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
5145
5146 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
5147 the load fails. Useful for distros.
5148 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
5149
5150 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
5151 [Steve Henson]
5152
5153 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
5154 [Huang Ying]
5155
5156 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
5157
5158 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5159 [Steve Henson]
5160
5161 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
5162 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
5163 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
5164
5165 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5166 [Steve Henson]
5167
5168 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
5169 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
5170 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
5171 files.
5172 [Steve Henson]
5173
5174 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
5175
5176 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
5177 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
5178 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
5179 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
5180
5181 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
5182 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
5183 [Joe Orton]
5184
5185 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
5186
5187 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
5188 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
5189 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
5190
5191 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
5192
5193 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
5194 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
5195 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
5196 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
5197 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5198
5199 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
5200 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
5201 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
5202 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
5203 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
5204 invalid read after the end of 'db').
5205 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5206
5207 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
5208
5209 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
5210 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
5211 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
5212 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
5213 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
5214
5215 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
5216 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
5217
5218 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
5219 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
5220 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
5221 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
5222 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5223
5224 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5225
5226 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5227 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5228 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5229 sets may exist with different names.
5230 [Steve Henson]
5231
5232 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5233 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5234 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5235 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5236 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5237 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5238 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5239 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5240 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5241 implementation.
5242 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5243
5244 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5245 implementation in the following ways:
5246
5247 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5248 hard coded.
5249
5250 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5251 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5252 ignored for embedded content.
5253
5254 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5255 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5256 [Steve Henson]
5257
5258 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5259 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5260 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5261 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5262
5263 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5264 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5265 [Steve Henson]
5266
5267 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5268 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5269 [Steve Henson]
5270
5271 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5272 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5273 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5274 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5275 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5276 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5277 data.
5278 [Steve Henson]
5279
5280 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5281 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5282 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5283
5284 *) Netware support:
5285
5286 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5287 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5288 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5289 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5290 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5291 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5292 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5293 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5294 platform
5295 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5296 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5297 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5298 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5299 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5300 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5301 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5302
5303 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5304 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5305 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5306 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5307 to s_client and s_server.
5308 [Steve Henson]
5309
5310 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5311
5312 *) Fix various bugs:
5313 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5314 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5315 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5316 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5317 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5318
5319 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5320
5321 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5322 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5323 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5324 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5325 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5326 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5327 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5328 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5329 [Andy Polyakov]
5330
5331 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5332 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5333 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5334 Steve Henson]
5335
5336 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5337 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5338 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5339 supported.
5340
5341 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5342 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5343 SSL_SESSION.
5344
5345 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5346 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5347 with no application modification.
5348
5349 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5350 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5351
5352 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5353 or server extensions to be examined.
5354
5355 This work was sponsored by Google.
5356 [Steve Henson]
5357
5358 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5359 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5360 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5361 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5362 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5363 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5364 server_name extension.
5365
5366 New functions (subject to change):
5367
5368 SSL_get_servername()
5369 SSL_get_servername_type()
5370 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5371
5372 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5373
5374 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5375 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5376 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5377 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5378 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5379
5380 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5381
5382 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5383 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5384 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5385 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5386 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5387 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5388 option.
5389
5390 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5391
5392 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5393 [Steve Henson]
5394
5395 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5396 [Andy Polyakov]
5397
5398 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5399 (which previously caused an internal error).
5400 [Bodo Moeller]
5401
5402 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5403 [Ben Laurie]
5404
5405 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5406 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5407
5408 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5409 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5410 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5411
5412 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5413 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5414 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5415 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5416
5417 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5418 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5419 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5420 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5421
5422 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5423 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5424 information. For detailed background information, see
5425 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5426 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5427 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5428 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5429 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5430 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5431 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5432 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5433 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5434 remove a conditional branch.
5435
5436 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5437 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5438 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5439 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5440 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5441 remains as a deprecated alias.
5442
5443 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5444 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5445 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5446 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5447
5448 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5449 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5450 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5451 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5452 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5453 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5454 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5455 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5456
5457 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5458
5459 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5460 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5461 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5462 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5463 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5464 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5465 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5466 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5467 in a different context.
5468 [Bodo Moeller]
5469
5470 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5471 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5472 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5473 [Bodo Moeller]
5474
5475 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5476 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5477 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5478
5479 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5480
5481 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5482 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5483 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5484 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5485 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5486 [Victor Duchovni]
5487
5488 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5489 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5490 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5491 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5492 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5493 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5494 [Bodo Moeller]
5495
5496 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5497 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5498 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5499 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5500 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5501 [Bodo Moeller]
5502
5503 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5504 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5505
5506 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5507 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5508 Improve header file function name parsing.
5509 [Steve Henson]
5510
5511 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5512 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
5513 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
5514
5515 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
5516
5517 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5518 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5519 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5520
5521 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5522 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5523
5524 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5525 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5526
5527 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5528 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5529 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5530
5531 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
5532 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
5533 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
5534 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
5535 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
5536 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
5537 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
5538 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
5539 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
5540
5541 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
5542 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
5543 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
5544 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
5545 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
5546
5547 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
5548 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
5549 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
5550 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
5551 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
5552 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
5553 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
5554 multiple values to extend the available space.
5555
5556 [Bodo Moeller]
5557
5558 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
5559
5560 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5561 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5562
5563 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
5564 [Ben Laurie]
5565
5566 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5567 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5568 undesirable limitations.
5569 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5570
5571 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
5572 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
5573 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
5574 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
5575 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
5576 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
5577 to avoid potential handshake problems.
5578 [Bodo Moeller]
5579
5580 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5581
5582 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5583 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5584 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5585
5586 The latter two were purportedly from
5587 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5588 appear there.
5589
5590 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
5591 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5592 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5593 [Bodo Moeller]
5594
5595 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5596 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5597 [Bodo Moeller]
5598
5599 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
5600 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
5601 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
5602 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
5603
5604 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5605 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5606 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
5607 [NTT]
5608
5609 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
5610 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
5611 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
5612 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
5613 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
5614 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
5615 [Steve Henson]
5616
5617 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
5618
5619 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
5620 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
5621 [Steve Henson]
5622
5623 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
5624 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
5625
5626 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5627 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
5628 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
5629 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
5630 [Douglas Stebila]
5631
5632 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
5633 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
5634 [Steve Henson]
5635
5636 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
5637 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
5638 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
5639 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
5640 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
5641 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
5642 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
5643 can't be loaded.
5644 [Steve Henson]
5645
5646 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
5647 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
5648 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
5649 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
5650 [Steve Henson]
5651
5652 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
5653 under VC++ build system.
5654 [Steve Henson]
5655
5656 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
5657 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
5658 [Richard Levitte]
5659
5660 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
5661
5662 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5663 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5664 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5665 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5666 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5667
5668 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5669 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5670 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5671
5672 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
5673 [Steve Henson]
5674
5675 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
5676 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5677 [Nils Larsch]
5678
5679 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
5680 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
5681
5682 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
5683 [Nick Mathewson]
5684
5685 *) Extended Windows CE support.
5686 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
5687
5688 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
5689 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5690 [Steve Henson]
5691
5692 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
5693 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
5694 smime utility.
5695 [Steve Henson]
5696
5697 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
5698
5699 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5700 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5701
5702 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
5703 [Richard Levitte]
5704
5705 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
5706 key into the same file any more.
5707 [Richard Levitte]
5708
5709 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
5710 [Andy Polyakov]
5711
5712 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
5713 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
5714
5715 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
5716 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
5717 [Richard Levitte]
5718
5719 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
5720 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
5721 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
5722 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
5723 this only applies when building 'shared'.
5724 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
5725
5726 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
5727 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
5728 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
5729 [Steve Henson]
5730
5731 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
5732 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
5733 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
5734 - add new function for parameter creation
5735 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
5736 BN_BLINDING parameters
5737 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
5738 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
5739 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
5740 threads.
5741 [Nils Larsch]
5742
5743 *) Add support for DTLS.
5744 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
5745
5746 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
5747 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
5748 [Walter Goulet]
5749
5750 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
5751 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
5752 [Nils Larsch]
5753
5754 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
5755 the apps/openssl applications.
5756 [Nils Larsch]
5757
5758 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
5759 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
5760 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
5761 [Ben Laurie]
5762
5763 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
5764 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
5765
5766 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
5767 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
5768
5769 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
5770 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
5771 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
5772 avoid this algorithm.)
5773
5774 [Bodo Moeller]
5775
5776 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
5777 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
5778 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
5779 [Richard Levitte]
5780
5781 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
5782 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
5783 [Andy Polyakov]
5784
5785 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
5786 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
5787 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
5788 pod file:
5789
5790 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
5791
5792 The blank line is mandatory.
5793
5794 [Steve Henson]
5795
5796 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
5797 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
5798 sources.
5799 [Steve Henson]
5800
5801 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
5802 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
5803
5804 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
5805 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
5806 to support policy checking and print out.
5807 [Steve Henson]
5808
5809 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
5810 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
5811 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
5812 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
5813
5814 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
5815 [Geoff Thorpe]
5816
5817 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
5818 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
5819
5820 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
5821 implementation contributed by IBM.
5822 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
5823
5824 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
5825 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
5826 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
5827 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
5828
5829 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
5830 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
5831
5832 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
5833 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
5834 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
5835 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
5836 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
5837 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
5838 [Steve Henson]
5839
5840 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
5841 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
5842 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
5843 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
5844 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
5845 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
5846 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
5847 [Geoff Thorpe]
5848
5849 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
5850 [Steve Henson]
5851
5852 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
5853 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
5854 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
5855 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
5856 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
5857 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
5858 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
5859 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
5860 [Steve Henson]
5861
5862 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
5863 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
5864 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
5865 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
5866 [Steve Henson]
5867
5868 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
5869 syntax:
5870
5871 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
5872 [Steve Henson]
5873
5874 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
5875 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
5876 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
5877 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
5878 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
5879 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
5880 BN_CTX's "bundling".
5881 [Geoff Thorpe]
5882
5883 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
5884 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
5885 [Geoff Thorpe]
5886
5887 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
5888 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
5889 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
5890 [Steve Henson]
5891
5892 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
5893 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
5894 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
5895 below).
5896 [Geoff Thorpe]
5897
5898 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
5899 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
5900 [Richard Levitte]
5901
5902 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
5903 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
5904 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
5905 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
5906 [Geoff Thorpe]
5907
5908 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
5909 initialised value as BN_new().
5910 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
5911
5912 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
5913 [Steve Henson]
5914
5915 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
5916 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
5917 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
5918 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
5919 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
5920 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
5921 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
5922 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
5923 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
5924 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
5925 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
5926 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
5927 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
5928 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
5929 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
5930
5931 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
5932 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
5933 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
5934 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
5935 [Geoff Thorpe]
5936
5937 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
5938 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
5939 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
5940 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
5941 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
5942 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
5943 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
5944 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
5945 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
5946 [Geoff Thorpe]
5947
5948 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
5949 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
5950 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
5951 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
5952 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
5953 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
5954 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
5955 [Geoff Thorpe]
5956
5957 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
5958 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
5959 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
5960 these have been updated also.
5961 [Geoff Thorpe]
5962
5963 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
5964 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
5965 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
5966 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
5967 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
5968 functions.
5969 [Steve Henson]
5970
5971 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
5972 structure of type "other".
5973 [Steve Henson]
5974
5975 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
5976 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
5977 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
5978 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
5979 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
5980 situation in the script.
5981 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5982
5983 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5984 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
5985 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
5986 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
5987 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
5988 used as premaster secret.
5989 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5990
5991 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
5992 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
5993 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5994
5995 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
5996 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
5997
5998 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
5999 control of the error stack.
6000 [Richard Levitte]
6001
6002 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
6003 [Richard Levitte]
6004
6005 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
6006 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
6007 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
6008 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
6009 [Richard Levitte]
6010
6011 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
6012 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
6013 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
6014 [Richard Levitte]
6015
6016 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
6017 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
6018 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
6019 a memory area.
6020 [Richard Levitte]
6021
6022 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
6023 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
6024 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
6025 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
6026 [Richard Levitte]
6027
6028 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
6029 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
6030 the following flags are defined:
6031
6032 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
6033 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6034 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
6035 number.
6036
6037 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
6038 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6039 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
6040 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
6041 returns zero.
6042 [Richard Levitte]
6043
6044 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
6045 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
6046 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
6047 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
6048 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
6049 [Richard Levitte]
6050
6051 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
6052 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
6053 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
6054 [Richard Levitte]
6055
6056 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6057 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6058 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6059 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6060 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6061 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6062 [Richard Levitte]
6063
6064 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
6065 req and dirName.
6066 [Steve Henson]
6067
6068 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
6069 [Steve Henson]
6070
6071 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
6072 [Steve Henson]
6073
6074 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
6075 [Steve Henson]
6076
6077 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
6078 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
6079 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
6080 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
6081 default implementation more easily.
6082 [Geoff Thorpe]
6083
6084 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
6085 in config files.
6086 [Steve Henson]
6087
6088 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
6089 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
6090 [Richard Levitte]
6091
6092 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
6093 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
6094 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
6095 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
6096
6097 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
6098 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
6099 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
6100 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
6101 [Steve Henson]
6102
6103 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
6104 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
6105 to do it.
6106 [Richard Levitte]
6107
6108 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
6109 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
6110 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
6111 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
6112 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
6113 scalar * generator).
6114 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
6115
6116 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
6117 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
6118 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
6119 correctly.
6120 [Steve Henson]
6121
6122 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
6123 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
6124 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
6125 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
6126 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
6127 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
6128 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
6129 linker additions, eg;
6130 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
6131 [Geoff Thorpe]
6132
6133 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
6134 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
6135 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
6136 [Geoff Thorpe]
6137
6138 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6139 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6140 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
6141 via PR#459)
6142 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6143
6144 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
6145 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
6146 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
6147 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
6148 [Geoff Thorpe]
6149
6150 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
6151 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
6152 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
6153 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
6154 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
6155 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
6156 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
6157 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
6158 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
6159 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
6160
6161 Example for using the new callback interface:
6162
6163 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
6164 void *my_arg = ...;
6165 BN_GENCB my_cb;
6166
6167 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
6168
6169 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
6170 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
6171 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
6172 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
6173 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
6174 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
6175 */
6176
6177 [Geoff Thorpe]
6178
6179 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
6180 available to TLS with the number defined in
6181 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
6182 [Richard Levitte]
6183
6184 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
6185 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
6186
6187 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
6188 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6189 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6190 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
6191
6192 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
6193 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
6194
6195 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
6196 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
6197 well.
6198 [Richard Levitte]
6199
6200 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
6201 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
6202 [Richard Levitte]
6203
6204 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
6205 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
6206 and a macro that behave like
6207 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
6208
6209 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
6210 [Nils Larsch]
6211
6212 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
6213 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
6214 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
6215 if applicable.
6216 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6217
6218 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
6219 [Bodo Moeller]
6220
6221 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
6222 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6223 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6224 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6225 directory engines/.
6226 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6227 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6228 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6229 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6230 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6231 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6232 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6233 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6234
6235 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6236 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6237 [Richard Levitte]
6238
6239 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6240 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6241
6242 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6243 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6244 files while avoiding the low level API.
6245
6246 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6247 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6248 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6249 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6250
6251 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6252 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6253 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6254 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6255 instead of the low level API.
6256 [Steve Henson]
6257
6258 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6259 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6260 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6261 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6262 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6263 PKCS#7 code.
6264
6265 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6266 down to the template encoder.
6267 [Steve Henson]
6268
6269 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6270 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6271 [Bodo Moeller]
6272
6273 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6274 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6275 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6276 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6277
6278 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6279 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6280
6281 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6282 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6283
6284 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6285 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6286 [Bodo Moeller]
6287
6288 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6289 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6290 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6291 [Bodo Moeller]
6292
6293 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6294 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6295
6296 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6297 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6298
6299 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6300 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6301 New EC_METHOD:
6302
6303 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6304
6305 New API functions:
6306
6307 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6308 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6309 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6310 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6311 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6312 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6313
6314 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6315 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6316 enable it).
6317
6318 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6319 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6320 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6321 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6322 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6323 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6324 various internal method names.)
6325
6326 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6327 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6328
6329 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6330 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6331
6332 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6333 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6334
6335 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6336 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6337 methods are undefined.
6338
6339 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6340 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6341
6342 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6343 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6344 length of the modulus.
6345
6346 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6347 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6348
6349 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6350 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6351
6352 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6353 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6354
6355 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6356 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6357 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6358
6359 BN_GF2m_add
6360 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
6361 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
6362 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
6363 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
6364 BN_GF2m_mod_inv

6366 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
6367 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]

6369
6370 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6371 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6372
6373 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6374 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6375 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6376 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6377 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6378 where
6379 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6380 This applies to the following functions:
6381
6382 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6383 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6384 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6385 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6386 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6387 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6388 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6389 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6390 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6391 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6392
6393 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6394
6395 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6396 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6397
6398 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6399
6400 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6401 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6402 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6403 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6404 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6405
6406 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6407 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6408
6409 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6410 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6411 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6412
6413 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6414 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6415
6416 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6417 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6418 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6419 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6420 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6421
6422 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6423 functions
6424 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6425 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6426 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6427 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6428 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6429 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6430 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6431 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6432 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6433 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6434 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6435 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6436
6437 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6438 functions
6439 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6440 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6441 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6442 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6443 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6444
6445 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6446 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6447 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6448 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6449
6450 *) Add functions
6451 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6452 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6453 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6454 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6455 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6456 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6457 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6458
6459 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6460 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6461 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6462 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6463 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6464 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6465 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6466 adding different types of curves.
6467 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6468
6469 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6470 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6471 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6472 [Bodo Moeller]
6473
6474 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6475 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6476
6477 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6478 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6479 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6480 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6481
6482 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6483
6484 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6485 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6486
6487 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6488 library. Most notably,
6489 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6490 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6491 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6492 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6493 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6494 extracted before the specific public key;
6495 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6496 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6497
6498 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6499 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6500 function
6501 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6502 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6503 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6504 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6505 accessed via
6506 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6507 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6508 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6509
6510 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6511 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6512 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6513 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6514 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6515 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6516 differing sizes.
6517 [Richard Levitte]
6518
6519 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
6520
6521 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
6522 sensitive data.
6523 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
6524
6525 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
6526 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
6527 authentication-only ciphersuites.
6528 [Bodo Moeller]
6529
6530 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
6531 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
6532 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
6533 [Victor Duchovni]
6534
6535 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
6536 [Steve Henson]
6537
6538 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
6539 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
6540 [Steve Henson]
6541
6542 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
6543 run algorithm test programs.
6544 [Steve Henson]
6545
6546 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
6547 [Steve Henson]
6548
6549 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
6550 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
6551 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
6552 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
6553 message has informed the client about his choice.)
6554 [Bodo Moeller]
6555
6556 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
6557 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
6558 [Steve Henson]
6559
6560 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
6561
6562 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6563 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6564 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6565
6566 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
6567 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
6568
6569 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
6570 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6571
6572 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
6573 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
6574 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6575
6576 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
6577 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
6578 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
6579 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
6580 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
6581 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
6582 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
6583 [Bodo Moeller]
6584
6585 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
6586
6587 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
6588 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
6589
6590 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6591 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6592 undesirable limitations.
6593 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6594
6595 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6596
6597 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6598 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6599 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6600
6601 The latter two were purportedly from
6602 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6603 appear there.
6604
6605 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6606 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6607 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6608 [Bodo Moeller]
6609
6610 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6611 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6612 [Bodo Moeller]
6613
6614 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
6615
6616 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
6617 module in FIPS mode.
6618 [Steve Henson]
6619
6620 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
6621 [Steve Henson]
6622
6623 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
6624 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
6625 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
6626 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
6627 [Steve Henson]
6628
6629 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
6630
6631 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
6632 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
6633 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
6634 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
6635 the difference induced by this change.
6636 [Andy Polyakov]
6637
6638 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
6639
6640 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6641 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6642 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6643 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6644 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6645
6646 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6647 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6648 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6649
6650 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
6651 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
6652 [Steve Henson]
6653
6654 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
6655 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
6656 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
6657 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
6658 biased k.)
6659 [Bodo Moeller]
6660
6661 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
6662 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
6663 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
6664 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
6665 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
6666
6667 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
6668 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
6669 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
6670 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
6671 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
6672 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
6673
6674 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
6675
6676 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
6677 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
6678 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
6679 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
6680 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
6681 [Bodo Moeller]
6682
6683 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
6684 clients need.
6685 [Steve Henson]
6686
6687 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
6688 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
6689 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
6690 [Steve Henson]
6691
6692 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
6693 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
6694 structures constant.
6695 [Steve Henson]
6696
6697 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
6698
6699 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6700 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6701
6702 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
6703 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
6704 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
6705 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
6706 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
6707 some needed definitions.
6708 [Steve Henson]
6709
6710 *) Undo Cygwin change.
6711 [Ulf Möller]
6712
6713 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
6714 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
6715 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
6716 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
6717 [Richard Levitte]
6718
6719 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
6720
6721 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
6722 server and client random values. Previously
6723 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
6724 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
6725
6726 This change has negligible security impact because:
6727
6728 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
6729 data.
6730
6731 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
6732 handshake.
6733
6734 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
6735 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
6736 values.
6737
6738 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
6739 to our attention.
6740
6741 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
6742
6743 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
6744 [Ulf Möller]
6745
6746 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
6747 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
6748 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
6749
6750 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
6751 [Steve Henson]
6752
6753 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
6754 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
6755 [Andy Polyakov]
6756
6757 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
6758 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
6759 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
6760
6761 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
6762 [Steve Henson]
6763
6764 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
6765 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
6766 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
6767 certificates.
6768 [Steve Henson]
6769
6770 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
6771 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
6772 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
6773 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
6774
6775 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
6776 has chosen to ignore this fault)
6777 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
6778 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
6779 been given)
6780 [Richard Levitte]
6781
6782 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
6783
6784 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
6785 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
6786 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
6787 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
6788 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
6789 [Steve Henson]
6790
6791 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
6792 [Steve Henson]
6793
6794 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
6795 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
6796
6797 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
6798 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
6799 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
6800 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
6801 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
6802 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
6803 rather than being initialized to 1.
6804 [Steve Henson]
6805
6806 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
6807
6808 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6809 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6810 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6811
6812 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
6813 (CVE-2004-0112)
6814 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6815
6816 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6817 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6818 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6819 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6820 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6821 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6822 [Richard Levitte]
6823
6824 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
6825 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
6826 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
6827 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
6828 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
6829 for these cases.
6830 [Steve Henson]
6831
6832 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
6833 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
6834 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
6835 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
6836 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
6837 [Steve Henson]
6838
6839 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
6840 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
6841 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
6842 < 0.9.7.
6843 [Steve Henson]
6844
6845 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
6846 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6847
6848 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
6849 [Steve Henson]
6850
6851 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
6852
6853 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6854
6855 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6856 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6857
6858 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
6859
6860 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6861 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6862
6863 [Steve Henson]
6864
6865 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
6866 exiting on the first error in a request.
6867 [Steve Henson]
6868
6869 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6870 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6871 specifications.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
6874 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6875 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6876 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6877 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6878
6879 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6880 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6881 [Richard Levitte]
6882
6883 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
6884 blocks during encryption.
6885 [Richard Levitte]
6886
6887 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
6888 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
6889 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
6890 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
6891 certain size.
6892 [Steve Henson]
6893
6894 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
6895 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
6896 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
6897 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
6898 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
6899 parser.
6900 [Steve Henson]
6901
6902 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
6903
6904 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6905 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6906 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6907 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6908 [Bodo Moeller]
6909
6910 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6911 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6912 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6913 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6914 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6915
6916 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6917 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6918 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6919 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6920 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6921 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6922 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6923 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6924 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6925 [Bodo Moeller]
6926
6927 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
6928 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
6929 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
6930 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
6931 [Geoff Thorpe]
6932
6933 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
6934 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
6935 [Ulf Moeller]
6936
6937 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
6938
6939 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6940 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
6941 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6942 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6943 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6944
6945 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6946 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6947 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6948
6949 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
6950 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
6951 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
6952 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
6953 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
6954
6955 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
6956 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
6957 used by default when no-err is given.
6958 [Richard Levitte]
6959
6960 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
6961 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
6962
6963 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
6964 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
6965 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
6966 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
6967 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
6968
6969 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
6970 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
6971 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
6972 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
6973
6974 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
6975
6976 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
6977
6978 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
6979
6980 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
6981 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
6982 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
6983 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
6984 root is omitted).
6985 [Steve Henson]
6986
6987 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
6988 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
6989
6990 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
6991 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
6992 [Steve Henson]
6993
6994 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6995 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6996 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
6997 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
6998 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6999
7000 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
7001 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
7002 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
7003 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
7004 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
7005 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7006 followup to PR #377.
7007 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7008
7009 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
7010 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
7011 [Andy Polyakov]
7012
7013 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
7014 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
7015 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
7016 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
7017
7018 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
7019
7020 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
7021 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
7022
7023 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
7024 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
7025 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
7026 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
7027 client and server.
7028 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7029 PR #377.
7030 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7031
7032 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
7033 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
7034 removed entirely.
7035 [Richard Levitte]
7036
7037 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
7038 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
7039 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
7040 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
7041 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
7042 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
7043 of libcrypto.
7044 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
7045 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
7046 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
7047 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
7048 have to be made anyway).
7049 [Richard Levitte]
7050
7051 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
7052 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
7053 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
7054 [Steve Henson]
7055
7056 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
7057 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
7058 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
7059 [Richard Levitte]
7060
7061 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
7062 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
7063 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7064
7065 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
7066 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
7067 edit numbers of the version.
7068 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7069
7070 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
7071 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
7072 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
7073
7074 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
7075 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7076
7077 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7078 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7079 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7080
7081 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
7082 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7083
7084 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
7085 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7086
7087 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
7088 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7089
7090 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
7091 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7092
7093 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
7094 overflows.
7095 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7096
7097 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
7098 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
7099 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7100
7101 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
7102 representations in a platform independent manner.
7103 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7104
7105 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7106 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7107 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7108
7109 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
7110 indents.
7111 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7112
7113 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
7114 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7115
7116 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
7117 full. Fixed.
7118 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7119
7120 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
7121 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
7122 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7123
7124 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
7125 unconditionally).
7126 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7127
7128 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
7129 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7130
7131 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
7132 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7133
7134 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
7135 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7136
7137 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
7138 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7139
7140 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
7141 CBCParameter.
7142 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7143
7144 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
7145 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7146
7147 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
7148 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7149
7150 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
7151 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
7152 exploitable.
7153 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7154
7155 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
7156 the 0.9.6 release series:
7157
7158 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7159 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
7160 (CVE-2002-0657)
7161 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7162
7163 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
7164 [Richard Levitte]
7165
7166 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
7167 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
7168
7169 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
7170 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
7171
7172 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
7173 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
7174 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
7175 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
7176
7177 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
7178 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
7179 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
7180
7181 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
7182 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
7183 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
7184 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7185
7186 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
7187 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
7188 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
7189 some local tweaks:
7190
7191 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
7192 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
7193 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
7194 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7195 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7196 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
7197 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
7198 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
7199 done
7200
7201 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
7202 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
7203 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
7204 [Richard Levitte]
7205
7206 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
7207 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
7208 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
7209 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
7210 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
7211
7212 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
7213 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
7214
7215 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
7216 error in AES-CFB decryption.
7217 [Richard Levitte]
7218
7219 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
7220 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
7221 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
7222 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7223 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7224 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7225 [Steve Henson]
7226
7227 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7228 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7229 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7230 [Steve Henson]
7231
7232 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7233 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7234 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7235
7236 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7237 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7238 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7239 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7240 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7241 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7242 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7243 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7244
7245 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7246 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7247 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7248 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7249 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7250 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7251 [Steve Henson]
7252
7253 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7254 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7255 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7256 declaration has been changed from
7257 int (*cb)()
7258 into
7259 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7260 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7261 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7262 has been changed into
7263 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7264
7265 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7266 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
7267 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
7268
7269 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7270 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7271
7272 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7273 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7274 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7275 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7276 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7277 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7278 always load it have also been added.
7279 [Steve Henson]
7280
7281 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7282 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7283 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7284
7285 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7286
7287 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7288 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7289 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7290
7291 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7292 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7293 command line option can be used to specify an
7294 alternative file.
7295 [Steve Henson]
7296
7297 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7298 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7299 [Steve Henson]
7300
7301 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7302 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7303 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7304 [Steve Henson]
7305
7306 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7307 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7308 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7309 to work with the new engine framework.
7310 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7311
7312 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7313 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7314 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7315 to work with the new engine framework.
7316 [Richard Levitte]
7317
7318 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7319 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7320 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7321
7322 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7323 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7324
7325 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7326 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7327 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7328 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7329 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7330 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7331
7332 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7333 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7334
7335 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7336 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7337
7338 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7339 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7340 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7341 [Ben Laurie]
7342
7343 *) Add new functions
7344 ERR_peek_last_error
7345 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7346 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7347 These are similar to
7348 ERR_peek_error
7349 ERR_peek_error_line
7350 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7351 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7352 still in the error queue.
7353 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7354
7355 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7356 like:
7357 default_algorithms = ALL
7358 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7359 [Steve Henson]
7360
7361 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7362 [Steve Henson]
7363
7364 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7365 [Steve Henson]
7366
7367 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7368 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7369 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7370 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7371
7372 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7373 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7374
7375 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7376 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7377
7378 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7379 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7380 [Bodo Moeller]
7381
7382 *) New functions/macros
7383
7384 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7385 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7386 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7387 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7388
7389 to request calling a callback function
7390
7391 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7392 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7393
7394 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7395 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7396 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7397 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7398 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7399 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7400 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7401 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7402 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7403 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7404
7405 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7406 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7407 [Bodo Moeller]
7408
7409 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7410 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7411 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7412 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7413 the configuration scripts.
7414
7415 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7416 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7417 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7418
7419 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7420 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7421
7422 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7423 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7424 when reusing an existing buffer.
7425 [Bodo Moeller]
7426
7427 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7428 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7429 [Steve Henson]
7430
7431 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7432 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7433 [Ben Laurie]
7434
7435 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7436 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7437 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7438 has the same effect.
7439 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7440
7441 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7442 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7443 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7444 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7445 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7446 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7447 exception.
7448
7449 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7450 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7451 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7452 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7453
7454 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7455 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7456 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7457 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7458
7459 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7460 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7461 won't work.
7462
7463 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7464 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7465 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7466 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7467 default), and then completely removed.
7468 [Richard Levitte]
7469
7470 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7471 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7472 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7473 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7474 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7475 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7476 particular extension is supported.
7477 [Steve Henson]
7478
7479 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7480 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7481 [Steve Henson]
7482
7483 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7484 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7485 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7486 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7487 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7488 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7489 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7490 requires the destination to be valid.
7491
7492 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7493 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7494 [Steve Henson]
7495
7496 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7497 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7498 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7499 [Bodo Moeller]
7500
7501 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7502 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7503
7504 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7505 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7506 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7507 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7508 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7509 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7510 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7511 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7512 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
7513 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
7514 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
7515 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
7516 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
7517 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
7518 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
7519 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
7520 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
7521 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
7522 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
7523 the new code.
7524 [Geoff Thorpe]
7525
7526 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
7527 [Steve Henson]
7528
7529 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
7530 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
7531 become part of libeay.num as well.
7532 [Richard Levitte]
7533
7534 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
7535 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
7536 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
7537 false once a handshake has been completed.
7538 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
7539 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
7540 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
7541 client has followed the request.)
7542 [Bodo Moeller]
7543
7544 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
7545 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
7546 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
7547 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
7548
7549 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
7550 more bits available for options that should not be part of
7551 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
7552 [Bodo Moeller]
7553
7554 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
7555 [Steve Henson]
7556
7557 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
7558 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
7559 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
7560 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7561
7562 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
7563 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7564 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7565
7566 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
7567 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
7568 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
7569 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
7570 [Geoff Thorpe]
7571
7572 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
7573 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
7574 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
7575 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
7576 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
7577 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
7578 [Geoff Thorpe]
7579
7580 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
7581 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
7582 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
7583 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
7584 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
7585 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
7586 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
7587 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
7588 [Geoff Thorpe]
7589
7590 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
7591 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
7592 [Geoff Thorpe]
7593
7594 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
7595 [Ben Laurie]
7596
7597 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
7598 md_data void pointer.
7599 [Ben Laurie]
7600
7601 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
7602 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
7603 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
7604 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
7605 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
7606 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
7607 [Ben Laurie]
7608
7609 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
7610 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
7611 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
7612 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
7613 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
7614 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
7615 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
7616 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
7617 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
7618 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
7619 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
7620 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
7621 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
7622 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
7623 rather than letting it slide.
7624
7625 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
7626 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
7627 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
7628 [Geoff Thorpe]
7629
7630 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
7631 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
7632 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
7633 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
7634 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
7635 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
7636 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
7637 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
7638 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
7639 [Geoff Thorpe]
7640
7641 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
7642 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
7643 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
7644 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
7645 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
7646
7647 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
7648 [Geoff Thorpe]
7649
7650 *) Add EVP test program.
7651 [Ben Laurie]
7652
7653 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
7654 [Ben Laurie]
7655
7656 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
7657 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
7658 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
7659 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
7660 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
7661 [Steve Henson]
7662
7663 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
7664 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
7665 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
7666 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
7667 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
7668 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
7669 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
7670
7671 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
7672 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
7673 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
7674 Usage example:
7675
7676 EVP_MD_CTX md;
7677
7678 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
7679 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
7680 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
7681 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
7682 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
7683
7684 [Ben Laurie]
7685
7686 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
7687 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
7688 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
7689 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
7690 anyway): E.g.,
7691
7692 des_key_schedule ks;
7693
7694 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
7695 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
7696
7697 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
7698 [Ben Laurie]
7699
7700 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
7701 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
7702 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
7703 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
7704 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
7705 functions prevents this.
7706 [Steve Henson]
7707
7708 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
7709 [Ben Laurie]
7710
7711 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
7712 correct _ecb suffix.
7713 [Ben Laurie]
7714
7715 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
7716 revocation information is handled using the text based index
7717 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
7718 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
7719 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
7720 [Steve Henson]
7721
7722 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
7723 [Richard Levitte]
7724
7725 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
7726 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
7727 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
7728 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
7729
7730 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
7731 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
7732
7733 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
7734 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7735 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
7736 via Richard Levitte]
7737
7738 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
7739 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
7740 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
7741 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
7742 [Geoff Thorpe]
7743
7744 *) Speed up EVP routines.

7760 [Ben Laurie]
7761
7762 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
7763 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
7764
7765 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
7766 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
7767 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
7768 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
7769 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
7770 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
7771 [Steve Henson]
7772
7773 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
7774 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
7775 [Richard Levitte]
7776
7777 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
7778 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
7779 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
7780 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
7781
7782 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
7783 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
7784 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
7785 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
7786 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
7787 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
7788 callback.
7789 [Richard Levitte]
7790
7791 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
7792 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
7793 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
7794 and interrupts/cancellations.
7795 [Richard Levitte]
7796
7797 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
7798 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
7799 [Steve Henson]
7800
7801 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
7802 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
7803 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
7804
7805 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
7806 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
7807 kind of callback.
7808 [Richard Levitte]
7809
7810 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
7811 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
7812 than this minimum value is recommended.
7813 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7814
7815 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
7816 that are easily reachable.
7817 [Richard Levitte]
7818
7819 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
7820 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
7821
7822 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
7823
7824 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
7825 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
7826 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
7827 needed for static libraries under Win32.
7828 [Steve Henson]
7829
7830 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
7831 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
7832 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
7833 [Steve Henson]
7834
7835 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
7836 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
7837 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
7838 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
7839 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
7840 internally such as S/MIME.
7841
7842 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
7843 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
7844 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
7845
7846 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
7847 applications.
7848 [Steve Henson]
7849
7850 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
7851 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
7852 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
7853 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
7854
7855 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7856
7857 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
7858
7859 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
7860 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
7861 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
7862 handling.
7863 [Steve Henson]
7864
7865 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
7866 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
7867 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
7868 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
7869 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
7870 a window system and the like.
7871 [Richard Levitte]
7872
7873 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
7874 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
7875 [Geoff]
7876
7877 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
7878 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
7879 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
7880 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
7881 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
7882 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
7883 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
7884 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
7885 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
7886 ENGINE structure.
7887 [Geoff]
7888
7889 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
7890 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
7891 tag cache.
7892 [Steve Henson]
7893
7894 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
7895 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
7896 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
7897 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
7898 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
7899 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
7900 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
7901 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
7902 [Geoff]
7903
7904 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
7905 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
7906 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
7907 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
7908 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
7909 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
7910 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
7911 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
7912 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
7913 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
7914 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
7915 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
7916 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
7917 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
7918 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
7919 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
7920 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
7921 [Geoff]
7922
7923 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
7924 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
7925 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
7926 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
7927 internal engine_int.h header.
7928 [Geoff]
7929
7930 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
7931 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
7932 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
7933 modify their own ones).
7934 [Geoff]
7935
7936 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
7937 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
7938 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
7939 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
7940 later on via ctrl() commands.
7941 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
7942 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
7943 structural references.
7944 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
7945 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
7946 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
7947 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
7948 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
7949 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
7950 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
7951 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
7952 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
7953 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
7954 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
7955 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
7956 [Geoff]
7957
7958 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
7959 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
7960 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
7961 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
7962 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
7963 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
7964 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
7965 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
7966 [Bodo Moeller]
7967
7968 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
7969 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
7970 [Steve Henson]
7971
7972 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
7973 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
7974 [Steve Henson]
7975
7976 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
7977 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
7978 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
7979 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
7980 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
7981 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
7982 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
7983 [Steve Henson]
7984
7985 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
7986 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
7987 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
7988 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
7989 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
7990
7991 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
7992 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
7993 generator).
7994 [Bodo Moeller]
7995
7996 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
7997
7998 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
7999 operations and provides various method functions that can also
8000 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
8001
8002 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
8003 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
8004
8005 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
8006 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
8007 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
8008
8009 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
8010 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
8011
8012 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
8013 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
8014
8015 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
8016
8017 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
8018 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
8019 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
8020 [Bodo Moeller]
8021
8022 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
8023 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
8024 [Richard Levitte]
8025
8026 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
8027 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
8028 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
8029 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
8030 is 40 of more characters long.
8031 [Steve Henson]
8032
8033 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
8034 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
8035 pointers.
8036 [Steve Henson]
8037
8038 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
8039 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
8040 [Bodo Moeller]
8041
8042 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
8043 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
8044 might.
8045 [Steve Henson]
8046
8047 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
8048
8049 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
8050 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
8051
8052 ASN1 error codes
8053 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
8054 ...
8055 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
8056 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
8057 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
8058 ...
8059 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
8060 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
8061
8062 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
8063 [Bodo Moeller]
8064
8065 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
8066 suffices.
8067 [Bodo Moeller]
8068
8069 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
8070 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
8071 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
8072 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
8073 and
8074 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
8075
8076 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
8077 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
8078
8079 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
8080 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
8081 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
8082 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
8083 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
8084 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
8085
8086 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
8087 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
8088
8089 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
8090 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8091
8092 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
8093 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
8094
8095 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
8096 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
8097 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8098 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
8099
8100 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
8101 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
8102
8103 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
8104 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
8105
8106 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
8107 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
8108 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
8109 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
8110 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
8111 [Richard Levitte]
8112
8113 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
8114 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
8115 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
8116 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
8117 [Steve Henson]
8118
8119 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
8120 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
8121 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
8122 trust settings.
8123 [Steve Henson]
8124
8125 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
8126 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
8127 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
8128 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
8129 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
8130 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
8131 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
8132 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
8133 ocsp utility.
8134 [Steve Henson]
8135
8136 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
8137 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
8138 [Steve Henson]
8139
8140 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
8141 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
8142 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
8143 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
8144 [Steve Henson]
8145
8146 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
8147 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
8148 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
8149 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
8150 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
8151 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
8152 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
8153 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
8154 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
8155 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
8156 [Steve Henson]
8157
8158 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
8159 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
8160 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
8161 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
8162 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
8163 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
8164 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
8165 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8166
8167 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
8168 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
8169 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
8170 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
8171 [Richard Levitte]
8172
8173 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
8174 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
8175 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
8176 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
8177 opensslconf.h.
8178 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
8179 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
8180 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
8181 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
8182 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
8183 what is available.
8184 [Richard Levitte]
8185
8186 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
8187 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
8188 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
8189 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
8190 auto incremented.
8191 [Steve Henson]
8192
8193 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
8194 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
8195 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
8196 [Steve Henson]
8197
8198 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
8199 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
8200 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
8201 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
8202 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
8203 [Steve Henson]
8204
8205 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
8206 [Steve Henson]
8207
8208 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
8209 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
8210 option to ocsp utility.
8211 [Steve Henson]
8212
8213 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
8214 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
8215 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
8216 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
8217 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
8218 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
8219 the request is nonce-less.
8220 [Steve Henson]
8221
8222 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8223 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8224 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8225 [Bodo Moeller]
8226
8227 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8228 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8229 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8230 [Steve Henson]
8231
8232 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8233 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8234 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8235 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8236 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8237 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8238
8239 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8240 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8241 appear to exist.
8242 [Steve Henson]
8243
8244 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8245 additional certificates supplied.
8246 [Steve Henson]
8247
8248 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8249 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8250 signature against.
8251 [Richard Levitte]
8252
8253 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8254 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8255 AES OIDs.
8256
8257 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8258 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8259 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8260 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8261 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8262 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8263 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8264 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8265 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8266
8267 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8268 request to response.
8269 [Steve Henson]
8270
8271 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8272 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8273 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8274 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8275 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8276 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8277 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8278 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8279 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8280 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8281 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8282 [Steve Henson]
8283
8284 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8285 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8286 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8287 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8288 [Steve Henson]
8289
8290 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8291 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8292
8293 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8294 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8295 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8296 [Steve Henson]
8297
8298 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8299 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8300 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8301 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8302 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8303
8304 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8305 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8306 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8307 [Steve Henson]
8308
8309 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8310 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8311 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8312 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8313 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8314 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8315 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8316 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8317
8318 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8319 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8320 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8321 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8322 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8323 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8324 [Steve Henson]
8325
8326 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8327 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8328 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8329 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8330 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8331 printout format cleaned up.
8332 [Steve Henson]
8333
8334 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8335 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8336 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8337 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8338 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8339 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8340 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8341 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8342 [Steve Henson]
8343
8344 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8345 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8346 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8347 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8348 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8349 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8350 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8351 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8352 [Steve Henson]
8353
8354 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8355 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8356 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8357 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8358 section to use.
8359 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8360
8361 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8362 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8363 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8364 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8365 [Steve Henson]
8366
8367 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8368 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8369 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8370 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8371 in the index file.
8372 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8373
8374 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8375 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8376 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8377 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8378
8379 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8380 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8381
8382 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8383 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8384 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8385 [Steve Henson]
8386
8387 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8388 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8389 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8390 [Bodo Moeller]
8391
8392 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8393 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8394 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8395 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8396 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8397 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8398 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8399 functions are provided:
8400
8401 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8402 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8403 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8404 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8405
8406 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8407 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8408 extended allocation function is enabled.
8409 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8410 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8411 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8412
8413 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8414 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8415 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8416 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8417 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8418 [Geoff Thorpe]
8419
8420 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8421 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8422 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8423 be queried.
8424 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8425 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8426 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8427 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8428
8429 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8430 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8431 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8432 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8433 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8434 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8435 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8436 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8437 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8438 [Richard Levitte]
8439
8440 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8441 provide utility functions which an application needing
8442 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8443 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8444 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8445
8446 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8447 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8448 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8449 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8450 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8451 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8452 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8453 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8454 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8455
8456 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8457 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8458 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8459 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8460 [Steve Henson]
8461
8462 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8463 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8464 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8465 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8466 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8467 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8468 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8469 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8470 will be added elsewhere.
8471 [Steve Henson]
8472
8473 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8474 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8475 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8476 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8477 [Steve Henson]
8478
8479 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8480 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8481 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8482 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8483 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8484 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8485 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8486 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8487 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8488 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8489 to produce the required SET OF.
8490 [Steve Henson]
8491
8492 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8493 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8494 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8495 [Richard Levitte]
8496
8497 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8498 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8499 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8500 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8501 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8502 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8503 [Steve Henson]
8504
8505 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8506 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8507 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8508 [Steve Henson]
8509
8510 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8511 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8512 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
8513 [Richard Levitte]
8514
8515 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
8516 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
8517 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
8518 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
8519 code will still work when these eventually go away.
8520 [Steve Henson]
8521
8522 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
8523 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
8524 [Steve Henson]
8525
8526 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
8527 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
8528 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
8529 certificates and CRLs.
8530 [Steve Henson]
8531
8532 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
8533 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
8534 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
8535 [Steve Henson]
8536
8537 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
8538 entries for variables.
8539 [Steve Henson]
8540
8541 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
8542 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
8543 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
8544 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
8545 [Bodo Moeller]
8546
8547 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
8548 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
8549 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
8550 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
8551 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
8552 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
8553 [Bodo Moeller]
8554
8555 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
8556 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
8557
8558 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
8559 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
8560 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
8561 [Steve Henson]
8562
8563 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
8564 print routines.
8565 [Steve Henson]
8566
8567 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
8568 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
8569 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
8570 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
8571 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
8572 order did not reflect the encoded order.
8573 [Steve Henson]
8574
8575 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
8576 [Steve Henson]
8577
8578 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
8579 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
8580 for now but they will eventually go away.
8581 [Steve Henson]
8582
8583 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
8584 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
8585 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
8586 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
8587 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
8588 has also been converted to the new form.
8589 [Steve Henson]
8590
8591 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
8592 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
8593 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
8594 for negative moduli.
8595 [Bodo Moeller]
8596
8597 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
8598 of not touching the result's sign bit.
8599 [Bodo Moeller]
8600
8601 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
8602 set.
8603 [Bodo Moeller]
8604
8605 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
8606 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
8607 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
8608 type-specific callbacks.
8609 [Geoff Thorpe]
8610
8611 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
8612 RFC 2712.
8613 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
8614 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
8615
8616 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
8617 in sections depending on the subject.
8618 [Richard Levitte]
8619
8620 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
8621 Windows.
8622 [Richard Levitte]
8623
8624 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
8625 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
8626 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
8627 be handled deterministically).
8628 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8629
8630 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
8631 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
8632 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
8633 [Bodo Moeller]
8634
8635 *) New function BN_kronecker.
8636 [Bodo Moeller]
8637
8638 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
8639 positive unless both parameters are zero.
8640 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
8641 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
8642 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
8643 [Bodo Moeller]
8644
8645 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
8646 sign of the number in question.
8647
8648 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
8649
8650 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
8651 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
8652 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
8653 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
8654 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
8655 [Bodo Moeller]
8656
8657 *) New function BN_swap.
8658 [Bodo Moeller]
8659
8660 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
8661 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
8662 results on negative inputs.
8663 [Bodo Moeller]
8664
8665 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
8666 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
8667 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
8668 [Bodo Moeller]
8669
8670 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
8671 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
8672 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
8673 and add new functions:
8674
8675 BN_nnmod
8676 BN_mod_sqr
8677 BN_mod_add
8678 BN_mod_add_quick
8679 BN_mod_sub
8680 BN_mod_sub_quick
8681 BN_mod_lshift1
8682 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
8683 BN_mod_lshift
8684 BN_mod_lshift_quick
8685
8686 These functions always generate non-negative results.
8687
8688 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
8689 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
8690
8691 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
8692 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
8693 be reduced modulo m.
8694 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8695
8696 #if 0
8697 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
8698 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
8699 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
8700
8701 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
8702 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
8703 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
8704 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
8705 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
8706 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
8707 differing sizes.
8708 [Richard Levitte]
8709 #endif
8710
8711 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
8712 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
8713 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
8714 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
8715 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
8716
8717 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
8718 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
8719 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
8720 cause any problems.
8721 [Bodo Moeller]
8722
8723 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
8724 [Richard Levitte]
8725
8726 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
8727 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
8728 [Richard Levitte]
8729
8730 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
8731 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
8732 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
8733 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
8734 time)
8735 [Richard Levitte]
8736
8737 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
8738 [Richard Levitte]
8739
8740 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
8741 [Richard Levitte]
8742
8743 *) Add the following functions:
8744
8745 ENGINE_load_cswift()
8746 ENGINE_load_chil()
8747 ENGINE_load_atalla()
8748 ENGINE_load_nuron()
8749 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
8750
8751 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
8752 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
8753 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
8754 libraries unless it's really needed.
8755
8756 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
8757 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
8758 declarations (they differed!).
8759 [Richard Levitte]
8760
8761 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
8762 [Richard Levitte]
8763
8764 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
8765 [Richard Levitte]
8766
8767 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
8768 [Bodo Moeller]
8769
8770 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
8771 identity, and test if they are actually available.
8772 [Richard Levitte]
8773
8774 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
8775 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
8776 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8777
8778 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
8779 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
8780 [Richard Levitte]
8781
8782 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
8783 [Richard Levitte]
8784
8785 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
8786 [Richard Levitte]
8787
8788 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
8789 [Ben Laurie]
8790
8791 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
8792 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
8793 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
8794
8795 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
8796 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
8797 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
8798 different shared library filenames on each system.
8799 [Geoff Thorpe]
8800
8801 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
8802 [Richard Levitte]
8803
8804 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
8805 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
8806 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
8807 of two sections.
8808 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
8809
8810 *) NCONF changes.
8811 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
8812 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
8813 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
8814 binary backward compatibility.
8815 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
8816 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
8817 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
8818 LDAP server.
8819 [Richard Levitte]
8820
8821 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
8822 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
8823 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
8824 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
8825 this case.
8826 [Steve Henson]
8827
8828 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
8829 [Ben Laurie]
8830
8831 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
8832 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
8833 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
8834 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
8835 set.
8836 [Steve Henson]
8837
8838 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
8839 [Richard Levitte]
8840
8841 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
8842
8843 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
8844 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
8845 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
8846
8847 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
8848
8849 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
8850
8851 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
8852 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
8853 [Steve Henson]
8854
8855 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
8856
8857 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
8858
8859 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
8860 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
8861
8862 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
8863 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
8864
8865 [Steve Henson]
8866
8867 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
8868 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
8869 specifications.
8870 [Steve Henson]
8871
8872 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
8873 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
8874 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
8875 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
8876
8877 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
8878 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
8879 [Richard Levitte]
8880
8881 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
8882
8883 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
8884 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
8885 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
8886 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
8887 [Bodo Moeller]
8888
8889 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
8890 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
8891 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
8892 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
8893 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8894
8895 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
8896 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
8897 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
8898 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
8899 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
8900 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
8901 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
8902 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
8903 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
8904 [Bodo Moeller]
8905
8906 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
8907
8908 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
8909 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
8910 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
8911 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
8912 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
8913
8914 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
8915 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
8916 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
8917
8918 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
8919
8920 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
8921 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
8922 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
8923 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
8924 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
8925 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
8926 [Geoff Thorpe]
8927
8928 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
8929 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
8930 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
8931 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
8932 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
8933 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8934
8935 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
8936 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
8937 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
8938
8939 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
8940 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
8941 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
8942 EVP_cleanup().
8943 [Richard Levitte]
8944
8945 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
8946 being properly terminated.
8947 [Richard Levitte]
8948
8949 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
8950 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
8951 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
8952 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
8953
8954 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
8955 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
8956 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
8957 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
8958 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
8959 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
8960 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
8961 change.
8962 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
8963
8964 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
8965 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
8966 [Bodo Moeller]
8967
8968 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
8969 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
8970 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
8971 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
8972 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
8973 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
8974 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
8975 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
8976
8977 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
8978 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
8979 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
8980 (see [openssl.org #212]).
8981 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8982
8983 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
8984 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
8985 [Steve Henson]
8986
8987 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
8988
8989 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
8990 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
8991 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
8992
8993 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
8994
8995 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
8996 and get fix the header length calculation.
8997 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
8998 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
8999 Steve Henson]
9000
9001 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
9002 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
9003 assertions could call abort()).
9004 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
9005
9006 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
9007
9008 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9009 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9010 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9011 supplied buffer.
9012 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9013
9014 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
9015 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
9016 by the selection routines (PR #130).
9017 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9018
9019 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
9020 [Nils Larsch]
9021
9022 *) New option
9023 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
9024 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
9025 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
9026
9027 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
9028 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
9029 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
9030 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
9031 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
9032 applications.
9033 [Bodo Moeller]
9034
9035 *) Changes in security patch:
9036
9037 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
9038 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
9039 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
9040 F30602-01-2-0537.
9041
9042 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9043 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9044 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9045 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
9046 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9047
9048 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
9049 happen in practice.
9050 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9051
9052 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
9053 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
9054 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
9055
9056 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
9057 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
9058 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9059
9060 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
9061 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
9062 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9063
9064 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
9065
9066 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
9067 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
9068 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
9069
9070 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
9071 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
9072
9073 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
9074 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
9075 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
9076 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
9077 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
9078 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
9079 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9080
9081 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
9082 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
9083 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
9084 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
9085 [Bodo Moeller]
9086
9087 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
9088 [Bodo Moeller]
9089
9090 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
9091 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
9092 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
9093 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
9094 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
9095 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9096
9097 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
9098 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
9099 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
9100 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
9101 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
9102 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9103
9104 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
9105 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
9106 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
9107 BN_generate_prime().)
9108
9109 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
9110 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
9111 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
9112 better.
9113 [Bodo Moeller]
9114
9115 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
9116 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
9117 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9118
9119 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
9120 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
9121 when using non-blocking I/O.
9122 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
9123
9124 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
9125 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
9126
9127 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
9128 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
9129 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9130
9131 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
9132 configuration for the versions before that.
9133 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
9134
9135 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
9136 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
9137 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
9138 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
9139 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9140
9141 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
9142 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
9143 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
9144 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9145
9146 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
9147 value is 0.
9148 [Richard Levitte]
9149
9150 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
9151 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
9152 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
9153
9154 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
9155 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
9156
9157 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
9158 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
9159 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
9160 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
9161 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
9162 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
9163 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
9164 session cache.
9165
9166 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
9167 using a local variable.
9168 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
9169
9170 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
9171 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
9172 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9173
9174 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
9175 [Richard Levitte]
9176
9177 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
9178 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
9179
9180 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
9181 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
9182 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
9183
9184 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
9185
9186 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
9187 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
9188 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
9189 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
9190 [Bodo Moeller]
9191
9192 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
9193 present.
9194 [Steve Henson]
9195
9196 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
9197 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
9198 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
9199 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
9200 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
9201
9202 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
9203 returns early because it has nothing to do.
9204 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9205
9206 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9207 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
9208 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9209
9210 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9211 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
9212 (Use engine 'keyclient')
9213 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
9214
9215 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
9216 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
9217 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
9218 modules).
9219 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
9220
9221 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9222 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9223 from 0.9.7.
9224 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9225
9226 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9227 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9228 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9229 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9230
9231 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9232 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9233 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9234 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9235
9236 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9237 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9238
9239 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9240 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9241 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9242 [Bodo Moeller]
9243
9244 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9245 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9246 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9247 become invalid.
9248 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9249
9250 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9251 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9252 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9253 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9254 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9255 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9256 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9257 [Bodo Moeller]
9258
9259 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9260 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9261 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9262 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9263
9264 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9265 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9266 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9267 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9268 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9269 the client will at least see that alert.
9270 [Bodo Moeller]
9271
9272 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9273 correctly.
9274 [Bodo Moeller]
9275
9276 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9277 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9278 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9279
9280 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9281 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9282 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9283 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9284 HelloRequest.
9285
9286 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9287 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9288 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9289
9290 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9291 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9292 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9293 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9294 may leak via logfiles.)
9295
9296 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9297 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9298 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9299 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9300 the legal range.
9301 [Bodo Moeller]
9302
9303 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9304 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9305 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9306
9307 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9308 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9309 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9310 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9311 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9312 [Bodo Moeller]
9313
9314 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9315 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9316
9317 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9318 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9319 followed by modular reduction.
9320 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9321
9322 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9323 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9324 [Bodo Moeller]
9325
9326 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9327 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9328 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9329 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9330 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9331
9332 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9333 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9334
9335 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9336 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9337 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9338
9339 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9340 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9341 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9342 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9343 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9344 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9345 automatically.
9346 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9347
9348 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9349 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9350 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9351 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9352 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9353
9354 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9355 [Andy Polyakov]
9356
9357 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9358 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9359 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9360 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9361 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9362 to allow the necessary settings.
9363 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9364
9365 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9366 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9367 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9368 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9369 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9370
9371 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9372 dh->length and always used
9373
9374 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9375
9376 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9377 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9378 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9379 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9380 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9381 dh->length.
9382
9383 So switch back to
9384
9385 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9386
9387 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9388 otherwise.
9389 [Bodo Moeller]
9390
9391 *) In
9392
9393 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9394 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9395 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9396 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9397
9398 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9399 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9400 always reject numbers >= n.
9401 [Bodo Moeller]
9402
9403 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9404 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9405 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9406 variable) is not atomic.
9407 [Bodo Moeller]
9408
9409 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9410 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9411 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9412 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9413
9414 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9415 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9416
9417 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9418 little-endian MIPS.
9419 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9420
9421 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9422 [Richard Levitte]
9423
9424 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9425
9426 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9427 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9428 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9429 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9430 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9431 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9432 to traverse all of 'state'.
9433
9434 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9435 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9436 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9437
9438 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9439 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9440
9441 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9442 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9443 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9444 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9445 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9446 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9447 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9448 further strengthens the PRNG.
9449 [Bodo Moeller]
9450
9451 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9452 [Andy Polyakov]
9453
9454 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9455 an error message in this case.
9456 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9457
9458 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9459 [Steve Henson]
9460
9461 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9462 positive and less than q.
9463 [Bodo Moeller]
9464
9465 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9466 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9467 that itself.
9468 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9469
9470 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9471 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9472 [Bodo Moeller]
9473
9474 *) Fix OAEP check.
9475 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9476
9477 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9478 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9479 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9480 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9481 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9482 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9483 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9484 paper.)
9485
9486 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9487 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9488 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9489 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9490
9491 Both problems are now fixed.
9492 [Bodo Moeller]
9493
9494 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9495 (previously it was 1024).
9496 [Bodo Moeller]
9497
9498 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9499 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9500 [Steve Henson]
9501
9502 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9503 [Steve Henson]
9504
9505 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9506 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9507 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9508 [Steve Henson]
9509
9510 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9511 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9512 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
9513 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
9514 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
9515 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
9516 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
9517 environment variables.
9518
9519 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
9520 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
9521 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
9522 [Bodo Moeller]
9523
9524 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
9525 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
9526 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
9527 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
9528 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
9529 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
9530 [Bodo Moeller]
9531
9532 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
9533 versions of 'test'.
9534 [Bodo Moeller]
9535
9536 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
9537
9538 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
9539 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
9540
9541 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
9542 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
9543 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
9544 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
9545 CygWin.
9546 [Richard Levitte]
9547
9548 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
9549 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
9550 amount of data available.
9551 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
9552 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9553
9554 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
9555 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
9556 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
9557 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
9558 [Bodo Moeller]
9559
9560 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
9561 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
9562 and UnixWare.
9563 [Richard Levitte]
9564
9565 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
9566 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
9567 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
9568 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
9569 [Ulf Moeller]
9570
9571 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
9572 [Andy Polyakov]
9573
9574 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
9575 [Richard Levitte]
9576
9577 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
9578 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
9579 [Steve Henson]
9580 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9581
9582 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
9583 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
9584 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
9585 (but broken) behaviour.
9586 [Steve Henson]
9587
9588 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
9589 it when found.
9590 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
9591
9592 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
9593 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
9594 [Bodo Moeller]
9595
9596 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
9597 did not exist.
9598 [Bodo Moeller]
9599
9600 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
9601 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
9602
9603 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
9604 [Richard Levitte]
9605
9606 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
9607 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
9608 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
9609
9610 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
9611 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
9612 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
9613 [Steve Henson]
9614
9615 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
9616 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
9617 [Ulf Moeller]
9618
9619 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
9620 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
9621
9622 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
9623
9624 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
9625
9626 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
9627 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
9628 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
9629 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
9630 [Bodo Moeller]
9631
9632 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
9633 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9634
9635 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
9636 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
9637 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9638
9639 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
9640 was empty.
9641 [Steve Henson]
9642 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9643
9644 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
9645 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
9646 but the code is actually correct.
9647 [Steve Henson]
9648
9649 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
9650 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
9651 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
9652 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
9653 and leaves the highest bit random.
9654 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9655
9656 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
9657 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
9658 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
9659 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
9660 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
9661 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
9662 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
9663 [Bodo Moeller]
9664
9665 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
9666 [Ulf Moeller]
9667
9668 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
9669 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
9670 [Steve Henson]
9671
9672 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
9673 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
9674 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
9675 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
9676 headers.
9677 [Richard Levitte]
9678
9679 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
9680 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
9681 and break the signature.
9682 [Steve Henson]
9683 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9684
9685 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
9686 DH ciphersuites.
9687 [Steve Henson]
9688
9689 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
9690 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
9691 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
9692 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
9693 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
9694 [Bodo Moeller]
9695
9696 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
9697 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9698
9699 *) ./config script fixes.
9700 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
9701
9702 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
9703 [Bodo Moeller]
9704
9705 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
9706 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
9707 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
9708 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
9709 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
9710
9711 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
9712 call failed, free the DSA structure.
9713 [Bodo Moeller]
9714
9715 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
9716 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
9717 [Steve Henson]
9718
9719 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
9720 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
9721 when writing a 32767 byte record.
9722 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
9723
9724 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
9725 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
9726
9727 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
9728 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
9729 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
9730 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
9731 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
9732
9733 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
9734 [Bodo Moeller]
9735
9736 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
9737 [Ulf Möller]
9738
9739 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
9740 [Ulf Möller]
9741
9742 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
9743 [Bodo Moeller]
9744
9745 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
9746 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
9747 [Bodo Moeller]
9748
9749 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
9750 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
9751 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
9752 result of the server certificate verification.)
9753 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9754
9755 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
9756 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
9757 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
9758 [Bodo Moeller]
9759
9760 *) Fix SSL_peek:
9761 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
9762 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
9763 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
9764 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
9765 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
9766 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
9767 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
9768 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
9769 [Bodo Moeller]
9770
9771 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
9772 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
9773 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
9774 happening the other way round.
9775 [Geoff Thorpe]
9776
9777 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
9778 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
9779 [Bodo Moeller]
9780
9781 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
9782 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
9783 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
9784 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
9785 [Richard Levitte]
9786
9787 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
9788 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
9789
9790 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
9791
9792 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
9793 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
9794 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
9795 that.
9796
9797 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
9798
9799 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
9800
9801 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
9802 static ones.
9803 [Richard Levitte]
9804
9805 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
9806
9807 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
9808 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
9809 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
9810 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
9811 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
9812
9813 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
9814 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
9815 matter what.
9816 [Richard Levitte]
9817
9818 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
9819 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9820
9821 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
9822
9823 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
9824 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
9825 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
9826 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
9827 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
9828 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
9829 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
9830 by the Finished messages.
9831 [Bodo Moeller]
9832
9833 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
9834 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
9835
9836 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
9837 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
9838 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
9839 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
9840 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
9841 appropriately.
9842 [Steve Henson]
9843
9844 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
9845 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
9846 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
9847 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
9848 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
9849 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
9850 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
9851 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
9852 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
9853 together.
9854 [Steve Henson]
9855
9856 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
9857 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
9858 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
9859 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
9860
9861 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
9862 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
9863 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
9864 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
9865 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
9866 the answer.
9867
9868 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
9869 been tested well enough.
9870 [Richard Levitte]
9871
9872 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
9873 it can return incorrect results.
9874 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
9875 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
9876 [Bodo Moeller]
9877
9878 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
9879 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
9880 include zero length content when signing messages.
9881 [Steve Henson]
9882
9883 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
9884 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
9885 [Bodo Möller]
9886
9887 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
9888 [Richard Levitte]
9889
9890 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
9891 wrong sign.
9892 [Ulf Möller]
9893
9894 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
9895 packages. The default package contains applications, application
9896 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
9897 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
9898 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
9899 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
9900 [Richard Levitte]
9901
9902 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
9903 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9904
9905 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
9906 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
9907
9908 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
9909 random number < q in the DSA library.
9910 [Ulf Möller]
9911
9912 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
9913 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
9914 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
9915 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
9916 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
9917 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
9918 just makes things more complicated.)
9919 [Bodo Moeller]
9920
9921 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
9922 from EGD.
9923 [Ben Laurie]
9924
9925 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
9926 work better on such systems.
9927 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9928
9929 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
9930 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
9931 keyid to the certificates aux info.
9932 [Steve Henson]
9933
9934 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
9935 if there was more than one signature.
9936 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
9937
9938 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
9939 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
9940 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
9941 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
9942 [Richard Levitte]
9943
9944 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
9945 rather than always using the current time.
9946 [Steve Henson]
9947
9948 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
9949 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
9950 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
9951 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
9952 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
9953 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
9954
9955 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
9956 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
9957
9958 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
9959
9960 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
9961 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
9962 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
9963 the same hash value.
9964
9965 As a result various functions (which were all internal
9966 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
9967 structure. This will break anything that messed round
9968 with X509_STORE internally.
9969
9970 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
9971 exact match, rather than just subject name.
9972
9973 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
9974 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
9975 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
9976 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
9977 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
9978 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
9979 entirely (maybe later...).
9980
9981 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
9982
9983 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
9984 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
9985 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
9986 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
9987 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
9988 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
9989 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
9990 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
9991
9992 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
9993 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
9994
9995 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
9996 to customise the verify behaviour.
9997 [Steve Henson]
9998
9999 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
10000 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
10001 [Steve Henson]
10002
10003 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
10004 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
10005 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
10006 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
10007 request is improperly encoded.
10008 [Steve Henson]
10009
10010 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
10011 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
10012 BIO_write(b, ...).
10013
10014 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
10015 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
10016
10017 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
10018 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
10019 words set to zero.)
10020 [Bodo Moeller]
10021
10022 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
10023 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
10024 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
10025 [Bodo Moeller]
10026
10027 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
10028 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
10029 BIO/fp routines also added.
10030 [Steve Henson]
10031
10032 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
10033 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
10034
10035 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
10036 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
10037 demos/state_machine.
10038 [Ben Laurie]
10039
10040 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
10041 generation and verification.
10042 [Steve Henson]
10043
10044 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
10045 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
10046 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
10047 encode and decode it manually.
10048 [Steve Henson]
10049
10050 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
10051 compile under VC++.
10052 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
10053
10054 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
10055 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
10056 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
10057 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
10058
10059 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
10060 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
10061 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
10062 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
10063 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
10064 [Steve Henson]
10065
10066 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
10067 [Richard Levitte]
10068
10069 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
10070 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
10071 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
10072
10073 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
10074 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
10075 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
10076 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
10077 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
10078 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
10079 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
10080 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
10081
10082 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
10083 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
10084
10085 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
10086
10087 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
10088 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
10089 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
10090
10091 [Richard Levitte]
10092
10093 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
10094 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
10095 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
10096 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
10097 [Richard Levitte]
10098
10099 *) MD4 implemented.
10100 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
10101
10102 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
10103 [Richard Levitte]
10104
10105 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
10106 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
10107 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
10108 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
10109 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
10110 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
10111 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
10112 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
10113 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
10114 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
10115 short or long names are found.
10116 [Steve Henson]
10117
10118 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
10119 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
10120
10121 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
10122 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
10123 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
10124 version rollback attacks was not effective.
10125
10126 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
10127 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
10128 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
10129 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
10130 [Bodo Moeller]
10131
10132 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
10133 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
10134 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
10135 [Richard Levitte]
10136
10137 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
10138 these print out strings and name structures based on various
10139 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
10140 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
10141 to allow the various flags to be set.
10142 [Steve Henson]
10143
10144 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
10145 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
10146 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
10147 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
10148 dates to be checked.
10149 [Steve Henson]
10150
10151 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
10152 negative public key encodings) on by default,
10153 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
10154 [Steve Henson]
10155
10156 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
10157 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
10158 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
10159 [Steve Henson]
10160
10161 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
10162 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
10163 [Bodo Moeller]
10164
10165 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
10166 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
10167 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
10168 are always statically linked for now, but there are
10169 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
10170 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
10171 [Richard Levitte]
10172
10173 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
10174 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
10175 Random Numbers.
10176 [Ulf Möller]
10177
10178 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
10179 DSA key.
10180 [Steve Henson]
10181
10182 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
10183 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
10184 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
10185 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
10186 form signing output easier to verify.
10187 [Steve Henson]
10188
10189 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
10190 [Steve Henson]
10191
10192 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
10193 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
10194 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
10195 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
10196 are needed because all other string types have virtually
10197 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
10198 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
10199 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
10200 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
10201 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
10202 [Steve Henson]
10203
10204 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
10205
10206 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
10207 the syntax given in objects.README.
10208 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
10209 obj_mac.h.
10210 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
10211 obj_mac.h.
10212
10213 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
10214 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
10215 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
10216 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
10217 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
10218 consistent name changes.
10219 [Richard Levitte]
10220
10221 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
10222 [Bodo Moeller]
10223
10224 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10225 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10226 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10227 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10228 [Richard Levitte]
10229
10230 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10231 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10232 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10233 of safestack.h .
10234 [Steve Henson]
10235
10236 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10237 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10238 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10239 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10240 [Steve Henson]
10241
10242 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10243 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10244 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10245 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10246 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10247 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10248 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10249 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10250 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10251 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10252 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10253 [Steve Henson]
10254
10255 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10256 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10257 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10258 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10259 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10260 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10261 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10262 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10263 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10264 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10265 [Steve Henson]
10266
10267 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10268 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10269 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10270 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10271
10272 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10273 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10274 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10275 omit any duplicate addresses.
10276 [Steve Henson]
10277
10278 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10279 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10280 [Bodo Moeller]
10281
10282 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10283 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10284 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10285 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10286 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10287 [Bodo Moeller]
10288
10289 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10290 software:
10291 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10292 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10293 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10294 Free => OPENSSL_free
10295 [Richard Levitte]
10296
10297 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10298 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10299 [Bodo Moeller]
10300
10301 *) CygWin32 support.
10302 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10303
10304 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10305 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10306 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10307 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10308 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10309 approach.
10310 [Geoff Thorpe]
10311
10312 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10313 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10314 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10315 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10316 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10317 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10318 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10319 [Geoff Thorpe]
10320
10321 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10322 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10323 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10324 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10325 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10326 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10327 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10328 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10329 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10330 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10331 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10332 [Bodo Moeller]
10333
10334 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10335 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10336 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10337 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10338 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10339
10340 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10341 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10342 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10343 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10344 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10345
10346 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10347 ciphers.
10348
10349 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10350 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10351 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10352 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10353
10354 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10355
10356 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10357 of macros.
10358
10359 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10360 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10361 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10362 flags.
10363
10364 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10365 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10366 any installed hardware versions can.
10367 [Steve Henson]
10368
10369 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10370 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10371 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10372 number.
10373 [Bodo Moeller]
10374
10375 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10376 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10377 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10378 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10379 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10380
10381 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10382 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10383 [Steve Henson]
10384
10385 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10386 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10387 [Richard Levitte]
10388
10389 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10390 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10391 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10392 features.
10393 [Steve Henson]
10394
10395 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10396 [Ulf Möller]
10397
10398 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10399 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10400 but no ssl client purpose.
10401 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10402
10403 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10404 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10405 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10406 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10407 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10408 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10409 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10410 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10411 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10412 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10413 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10414 [Steve Henson]
10415
10416 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10417 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10418 be obtained from the error queue.
10419 [Bodo Moeller]
10420
10421 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10422 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10423 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10424 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10425 [Bodo Moeller]
10426
10427 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10428 [Ulf Möller]
10429
10430 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10431 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10432 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10433 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10434 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10435 [Geoff Thorpe]
10436
10437 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10438 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10439 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10440 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10441 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10442 [Geoff Thorpe]
10443
10444 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10445 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10446 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10447 may not be NULL.
10448 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10449
10450 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10451 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10452 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10453 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10454 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10455 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10456 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10457 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10458 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10459 or "the configuration storage API"...
10460
10461 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10462
10463 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10464 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10465
10466 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10467
10468 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10469
10470 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10471 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10472 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10473 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10474 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10475 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
10476 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10477
10478 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10479 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10480 [Richard Levitte]
10481
10482 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10483 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10484 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10485 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10486 [Bodo Moeller]
10487
10488 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10489 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10490 them in a portable way.
10491 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10492
10493 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10494
10495 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10496
10497 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10498 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10499
10500 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10501 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10502 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10503 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10504
10505 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10506 was larger than the MD block size.
10507 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10508
10509 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10510 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10511 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10512 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
10513 components.
10514 [Steve Henson]
10515
10516 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
10517 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
10518 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
10519
10520 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
10521 discouraged.
10522 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
10523
10524 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
10525 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
10526 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
10527 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
10528 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
10529 Additional arguments are always ignored.
10530
10531 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
10532 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
10533
10534 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
10535 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
10536 [Bodo Moeller]
10537
10538 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
10539 [Bodo Moeller]
10540
10541 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
10542 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
10543 its own key.
10544 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
10545 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
10546 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
10547 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
10548 [Bodo Moeller]
10549
10550 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
10551 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
10552 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
10553 does not suppress any output.
10554 [Richard Levitte]
10555
10556 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
10557 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
10558 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
10559 with all the associated security issues.
10560
10561 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
10562 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
10563 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
10564 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
10565 use the value in the default purpose.
10566 [Steve Henson]
10567
10568 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
10569 and fix a memory leak.
10570 [Steve Henson]
10571
10572 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
10573 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
10574 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
10575 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
10576 [Bodo Moeller]
10577
10578 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
10579 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
10580 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
10581 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
10582 [Bodo Moeller]
10583
10584 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
10585 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
10586 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
10587 [Bodo Moeller]
10588
10589 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
10590 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
10591 [Bodo Moeller]
10592
10593 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
10594 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
10595 which was free.
10596 [Steve Henson]
10597
10598 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
10599 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
10600 [Bodo Moeller]
10601
10602 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
10603 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
10604 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
10605 [Bodo Moeller]
10606
10607 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
10608 number generation fails.
10609 [Bodo Moeller]
10610
10611 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
10612 [Bodo Moeller]
10613
10614 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
10615 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
10616
10617 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
10618 [Ulf Möller]
10619
10620 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
10621 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
10622
10623 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
10624 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
10625
10626 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
10627
10628 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
10629 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
10630 [Steve Henson]
10631
10632 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
10633 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
10634
10635 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
10636 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
10637 [Ulf Möller]
10638
10639 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
10640 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
10641 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
10642 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
10643 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
10644 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
10645
10646 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
10647 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
10648 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
10649 for example.
10650 [Steve Henson]
10651
10652 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
10653 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
10654 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
10655 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
10656 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
10657 counter, some don't.)
10658 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
10659 counters or duplicate objects.
10660 [Steve Henson]
10661
10662 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
10663 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
10664 [Steve Henson]
10665
10666 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
10667 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
10668 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
10669
10670 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
10671 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
10672 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
10673 or -rand.
10674 [Ulf Möller]
10675
10676 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
10677 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
10678 [Steve Henson]
10679
10680 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
10681 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
10682 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
10683 cipher list.
10684 [Steve Henson]
10685
10686 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
10687 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
10688 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
10689 [Steve Henson]
10690
10691 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
10692 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
10693 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
10694 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
10695 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
10696 should work without changes.
10697 [Richard Levitte]
10698
10699 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
10700 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
10701 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
10702 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
10703 must be defined. E.g.,
10704 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
10705 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
10706 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
10707 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
10708
10709 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
10710 record layer.
10711 [Bodo Moeller]
10712
10713 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
10714 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
10715 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
10716 [Steve Henson]
10717
10718 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
10719 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
10720 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
10721 request header lines. Some software needs this.
10722 [Steve Henson]
10723
10724 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
10725 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
10726 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
10727 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
10728 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
10729 is prompted for as usual.
10730 [Steve Henson]
10731
10732 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
10733 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
10734 autodetect the card and use it if present.
10735 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
10736
10737 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
10738 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
10739 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
10740 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
10741 [Steve Henson]
10742
10743 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
10744 [Andy Polyakov]
10745
10746 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
10747 of seed file.
10748 [Steve Henson]
10749
10750 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
10751 [Bodo Moeller]
10752
10753 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
10754 [Steve Henson]
10755
10756 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
10757 bits.
10758 [Ulf Möller]
10759
10760 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
10761 [Ulf Möller]
10762
10763 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
10764 [Andy Polyakov]
10765
10766 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
10767 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
10768 [Ulf Möller]
10769
10770 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
10771 options to produce them.
10772 [Steve Henson]
10773
10774 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
10775 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
10776 [Ulf Möller]
10777
10778 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
10779 for p == 0.
10780 [Ulf Möller]
10781
10782 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
10783 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
10784 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
10785 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
10786 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
10787 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
10788 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
10789 [Steve Henson]
10790
10791 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
10792 [Steve Henson]
10793
10794 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
10795 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
10796 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
10797 [Bodo Moeller]
10798
10799 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
10800 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
10801
10802 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
10803 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
10804 [Ulf Möller]
10805
10806 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
10807 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
10808 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
10809 has already seen).
10810 [Bodo Moeller]
10811
10812 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
10813 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
10814
10815 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
10816 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
10817 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
10818 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
10819 generation becomes much faster.
10820
10821 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
10822 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
10823 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
10824 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
10825 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
10826 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
10827 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
10828 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
10829 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
10830 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
10831 [Bodo Moeller]
10832
10833 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
10834 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
10835 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
10836 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
10837 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
10838 trial division stage.
10839 [Bodo Moeller]
10840
10841 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
10842 as ASN1_TIME.
10843 [Steve Henson]
10844
10845 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
10846 [Steve Henson]
10847
10848 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
10849 [Ulf Möller]
10850
10851 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
10852 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
10853 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
10854 the comments.
10855 [Ulf Möller]
10856
10857 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
10858 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
10859 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
10860 [Bodo Moeller]
10861
10862 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
10863 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
10864 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
10865 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
10866
10867 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
10868 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
10869 [Steve Henson]
10870
10871 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
10872 [Ulf Möller]
10873
10874 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
10875 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
10876 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
10877 Rabin-Miller iterations.
10878 [Ulf Möller]
10879
10880 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
10881 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
10882 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
10883 [Ulf Möller]
10884
10885 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
10886 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
10887 (instead of parameters) in future.
10888 [Steve Henson]
10889
10890 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
10891 when a new cipher list is set.
10892 [Steve Henson]
10893
10894 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
10895 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
10896 wrong.
10897
10898 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
10899 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
10900 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
10901
10902 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
10903 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
10904 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
10905 an error is flagged.
10906
10907 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
10908 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
10909 the readability was also increased :-)
10910 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10911
10912 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
10913 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
10914 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
10915 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
10916 as the root CA.
10917 [Steve Henson]
10918
10919 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
10920 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
10921 [Steve Henson]
10922
10923 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
10924 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
10925 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
10926 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
10927 instead.
10928
10929 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
10930 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
10931 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
10932 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
10933 because they handle more complex structures.)
10934 [Steve Henson]
10935
10936 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
10937 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
10938 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
10939 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10940
10941 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
10942 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
10943 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
10944 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
10945 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
10946 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
10947 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
10948 [Ulf Möller]
10949
10950 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
10951 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
10952 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
10953 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
10954 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
10955 [Bodo Moeller]
10956
10957 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
10958 [Bodo Moeller]
10959
10960 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
10961 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
10962 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
10963 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
10964 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
10965 to use this.
10966
10967 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
10968 code.
10969 [Steve Henson]
10970
10971 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
10972 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
10973 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
10974 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
10975 [Steve Henson]
10976
10977 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
10978 [Ulf Möller]
10979
10980 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
10981 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
10982 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
10983 international characters are used.
10984
10985 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
10986 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
10987 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
10988 in ASN1 order.
10989 [Steve Henson]
10990
10991 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
10992 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
10993 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
10994 request.
10995
10996 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
10997 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
10998 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
10999 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
11000 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
11001 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
11002
11003 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
11004 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
11005 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
11006 be handled by the string table functions.
11007
11008 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
11009 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
11010 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
11011 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
11012 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
11013 types at all.
11014 [Steve Henson]
11015
11016 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
11017 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
11018 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
11019 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
11020 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
11021
11022 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
11023 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
11024 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
11025 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
11026 [Bodo Moeller]
11027
11028 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
11029 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
11030 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
11031 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
11032 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
11033 SHA1.
11034 [Andy Polyakov]
11035
11036 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
11037 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
11038 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
11039 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
11040 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
11041 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
11042 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
11043 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
11044
11045 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
11046 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
11047 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
11048 [Steve Henson]
11049
11050 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
11051 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
11052 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
11053 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
11054 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
11055 support to pkcs8 application.
11056 [Steve Henson]
11057
11058 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
11059 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
11060 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
11061 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
11062 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
11063 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
11064 [Bodo Moeller]
11065
11066 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
11067 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
11068 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
11069 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
11070 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
11071 consistency.
11072 [Bodo Moeller]
11073
11074 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
11075 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
11076 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
11077 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
11078 example.
11079 [Steve Henson]
11080
11081 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
11082 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
11083 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
11084 and any application specific purposes.
11085
11086 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
11087 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
11088 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
11089 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
11090 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
11091 if the certificate is self signed.
11092 [Steve Henson]
11093
11094 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
11095 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
11096 [Steve Henson]
11097
11098 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
11099 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
11100 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
11101 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
11102 [Steve Henson]
11103
11104 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
11105 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
11106 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
11107 Update documentation.
11108 [Steve Henson]
11109
11110 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
11111 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
11112 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
11113 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
11114 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
11115 [Steve Henson]
11116
11117 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
11118 for details.
11119 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
11120
11121 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
11122 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
11123 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
11124 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
11125 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
11126 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
11127 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
11128 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
11129 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
11130 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
11131
11132 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
11133
11134 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11135 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11136 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
11137 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
11138 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
11139
11140 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
11141 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
11142 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
11143 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
11144 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
11145 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
11146 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
11147 request additional information:
11148 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
11149 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
11150
11151 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
11152 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
11153 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
11154 options.
11155
11156 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
11157 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
11158
11159 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
11160 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
11161 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
11162
11163 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
11164 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
11165
11166 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
11167 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
11168 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
11169 algorithm.
11170 [Steve Henson]
11171
11172 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
11173 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
11174 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
11175
11176 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
11177 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
11178 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
11179 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
11180 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
11181 included in OpenSSL.
11182 [Steve Henson]
11183
11184 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
11185 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
11186 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
11187 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
11188 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
11189 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
11190 [Bodo Moeller]
11191
11192 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
11193 PKCS12 structure.
11194 [Steve Henson]
11195
11196 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
11197 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
11198 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
11199 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
11200 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
11201 structure.
11202 [Steve Henson]
11203
11204 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
11205 need initialising.
11206 [Steve Henson]
11207
11208 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
11209 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
11210 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
11211 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
11212 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
11213 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
11214 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
11215 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
11216 be maintained manually.
11217
11218 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
11219 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
11220 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
11221 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
11222 work because people forget to call this function]
11223 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11224 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11225 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11226 [Steve Henson]
11227
11228 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11229 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11230 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11231 should be discouraged from doing it.
11232 [Ben Laurie]
11233
11234 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11235 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11236 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11237 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11238 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11239 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11240 [Steve Henson]
11241
11242 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11243 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11244 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11245
11246 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11247 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11248 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11249
11250 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11251 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11252 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11253 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11254 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11255 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11256
11257 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11258 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11259 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11260
11261 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11262 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11263 and vice versa.
11264
11265 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11266 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11267 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11268 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11269 [Steve Henson]
11270
11271 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11272 [Steve Henson]
11273
11274 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11275 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11276 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11277 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11278 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11279 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11280 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11281 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11282 keys so we should be OK.
11283
11284 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11285 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11286 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11287 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11288 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11289 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11290 stay in the name of compatibility.
11291
11292 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11293 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11294 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11295
11296 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11297 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11298 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11299 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11300 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11301 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11302 supplied key).
11303 [Steve Henson]
11304
11305 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11306 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11307 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11308 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11309 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11310 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11311 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11312 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11313 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11314 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11315 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11316 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11317 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11318 [Steve Henson]
11319
11320 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11321 [Steve Henson]
11322
11323 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11324 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11325 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11326 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11327 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11328 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11329 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11330 openssl verify ss.pem
11331 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11332 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11333 is OK.
11334 [Steve Henson]
11335
11336 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11337 (and add it to external session representation).
11338 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11339 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11340 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11341 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11342 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11343 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11344 security holes.
11345 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11346
11347 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11348 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11349 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11350 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11351
11352 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11353 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11354 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11355 [Steve Henson]
11356
11357 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11358 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11359 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11360 code.
11361 [Steve Henson]
11362
11363 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11364 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11365 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11366
11367 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11368 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11369 certificate auxiliary information.
11370 [Steve Henson]
11371
11372 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11373 the 'enc' command.
11374 [Steve Henson]
11375
11376 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11377 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11378 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11379 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11380 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11381 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11382 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11383 [Richard Levitte]
11384
11385 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11386 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11387 [Steve Henson]
11388
11389 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11390 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11391 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11392 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11393 [Steve Henson]
11394
11395 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11396 [Steve Henson]
11397
11398 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11399 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11400 [Steve Henson]
11401
11402 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11403 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11404 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11405 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11406 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11407 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11408 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11409 using the new 'x509' options.
11410
11411 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11412 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11413 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11414 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11415 for all purposes.
11416 [Steve Henson]
11417
11418 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11419 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11420 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11421 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11422 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11423 [Mark Cox]
11424
11425 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11426 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11427 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11428 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11429 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11430 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11431 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11432 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11433 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11434 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11435 [Steve Henson]
11436
11437 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11438 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11439 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11440 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11441 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11442 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11443 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11444 [Steve Henson]
11445
11446 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11447 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11448 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11449 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11450 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11451 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11452 openssl.cnf for more info.
11453 [Steve Henson]
11454
11455 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11456 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11457 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11458 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11459 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11460 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11461 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11462 md should be large enough anyway.
11463 [Bodo Moeller]
11464
11465 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11466 for handling the random seed file.
11467
11468 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11469 ca,
11470 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11471 s_client,
11472 s_server,
11473 x509 (when signing).
11474 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11475 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11476 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11477
11478 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11479 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11480 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11481 that support '-rand'.
11482 [Bodo Moeller]
11483
11484 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11485 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11486 [Bodo Moeller]
11487
11488 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11489 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11490 [Bill Perry]
11491
11492 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11493 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11494 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11495 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11496 is suitable.
11497 [Steve Henson]
11498
11499 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11500 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11501 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11502 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11503 [Steve Henson]
11504
11505 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11506 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11507 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11508 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11509 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11510 print out all the purposes.
11511 [Steve Henson]
11512
11513 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
11514 functions.
11515 [Steve Henson]
11516
11517 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
11518 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
11519 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
11520 single function call.
11521 [Steve Henson]
11522
11523 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
11524 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
11525 [Andy Polyakov]
11526
11527 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
11528 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
11529 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
11530 [Steve Henson]
11531
11532 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
11533 when producing the local key id.
11534 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11535
11536 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
11537 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
11538 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
11539 "server.pem".
11540 [Steve Henson]
11541
11542 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
11543 a public key to be input or output. For example:
11544 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
11545 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
11546 [Steve Henson]
11547
11548 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
11549 in the message. This was handled by allowing
11550 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
11551 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
11552
11553 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
11554 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
11555 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
11556 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11557
11558 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
11559 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
11560 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
11561 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
11562 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
11563 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
11564 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
11565 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
11566 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
11567 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
11568 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
11569 trivial: move one line.
11570 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
11571
11572 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
11573 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
11574 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
11575 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
11576 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
11577 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
11578 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
11579 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
11580 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
11581 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
11582 with an event loop for example.
11583 [Steve Henson]
11584
11585 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
11586 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
11587 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
11588 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
11589 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
11590 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
11591 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
11592 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
11593 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
11594 [Steve Henson]
11595
11596 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
11597 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
11598 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
11599 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
11600 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
11601 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
11602 [Steve Henson]
11603
11604 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
11605 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
11606 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
11607 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
11608
11609 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
11610 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
11611 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
11612 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
11613 key generation.
11614 [Steve Henson]
11615
11616 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
11617 (still largely untested)
11618 [Bodo Moeller]
11619
11620 *) New function ASN1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
11621 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
11622 [Steve Henson]
11623
11624 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
11625 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
11626 [Steve Henson]
11627
11628 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
11629 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
11630 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
11631 [Bodo Moeller]
11632
11633 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
11634 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
11635 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
11636 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
11637 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
11638 [Steve Henson]
11639
11640 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
11641 [Andy Polyakov]
11642
11643 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
11644 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
11645 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
11646 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
11647 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
11648 in ca.
11649 [Steve Henson]
11650
11651 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
11652 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
11653 1.OU="Unit name 1"
11654 2.OU="Unit name 2"
11655 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
11656 [Steve Henson]
11657
11658 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
11659 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
11660 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
11661 are otherwise ignored at present.
11662 [Steve Henson]
11663
11664 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
11665 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
11666 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
11667 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
11668 copied until the next read.
11669 [Steve Henson]
11670
11671 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
11672 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
11673 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
11674 [Steve Henson]
11675
11676 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
11677 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
11678 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
11679 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
11680 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
11681 associated functions.
11682 [Steve Henson]
11683
11684 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
11685 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
11686 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
11687 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
11688 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
11689 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
11690 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
11691 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
11692 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
11693 memory BIOs.
11694 [Steve Henson]
11695
11696 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
11697 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
11698 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
11699 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
11700 [Bodo Moeller]
11701
11702 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
11703 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
11704 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
11705 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
11706 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
11707 functionality.
11708 [Steve Henson]
11709
11710 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
11711 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
11712 under Win32.
11713 [Steve Henson]
11714
11715 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
11716 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
11717 extensions to be obtained and added.
11718 [Steve Henson]
11719
11720 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
11721 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
11722 [Bodo Moeller]
11723
11724 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
11725
11726 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11727 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11728
11729 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
11730 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
11731
11732 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
11733 program.
11734 [Steve Henson]
11735
11736 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
11737 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
11738 DH parameters contain its length).
11739
11740 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
11741 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
11742 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
11743 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
11744 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
11745 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
11746 utter importance to use
11747 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11748 or
11749 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11750 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
11751 attacks may become possible!
11752 [Bodo Moeller]
11753
11754 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
11755 [Bodo Moeller]
11756
11757 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
11758 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
11759 [Steve Henson]
11760
11761 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
11762 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
11763 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
11764 or long name.
11765 [Steve Henson]
11766
11767 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
11768 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
11769 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
11770 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
11771 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
11772 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
11773 private key operations.
11774 [Steve Henson]
11775
11776 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
11777 [Andy Polyakov]
11778
11779 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
11780 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
11781 to
11782 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
11783 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
11784 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
11785 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
11786 the password callback is called.
11787 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
11788
11789 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
11790
11791 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
11792 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
11793 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
11794 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
11795 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
11796 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
11797 this will work.
11798
11799 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
11800 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
11801 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
11802 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
11803 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
11804 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
11805 [Bodo Moeller]
11806
11807 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
11808 [Andy Polyakov]
11809
11810 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
11811 delete an unused file.
11812 [Ulf Möller]
11813
11814 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
11815 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
11816 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
11817 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
11818 [Steve Henson]
11819
11820 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
11821 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
11822 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
11823 of an error.
11824 [Bodo Moeller]
11825
11826 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
11827 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
11828 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
11829
11830 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
11831 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
11832 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
11833 comparison" warnings.
11834 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
11835 [Steve Henson]
11836
11837 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
11838 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
11839 derived keys are printed to stderr.
11840 [Steve Henson]
11841
11842 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
11843 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
11844
11845 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
11846 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
11847
11848 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
11849 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
11850 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
11851
11852 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
11853 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
11854 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
11855 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
11856 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
11857 this bug.
11858 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
11859
11860 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
11861 The interface is as follows:
11862 Applications can use
11863 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
11864 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
11865 "off" is now the default.
11866 The library internally uses
11867 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
11868 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
11869 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
11870
11871 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
11872 even the default) are now avoided.
11873
11874 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
11875 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
11876 than just having a counter.
11877
11878 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
11879
11880 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
11881 extensions.
11882 [Bodo Moeller]
11883
11884 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
11885 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
11886 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
11887 Initial "mode" flags are:
11888
11889 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
11890 a single record has been written.
11891 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
11892 retries use the same buffer location.
11893 (But all of the contents must be
11894 copied!)
11895 [Bodo Moeller]
11896
11897 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
11898 worked.
11899
11900 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
11901 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
11902
11903 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
11904 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
11905 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
11906 [Steve Henson]
11907
11908 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
11909 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
11910 test programs.
11911 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
11912
11913 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
11914 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
11915 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
11916 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
11917 point to the end.
11918 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
11919 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
11920
11921 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
11922 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
11923 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
11924 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
11925 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
11926 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
11927 [Steve Henson]
11928
11929 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
11930 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
11931 necessary function names.
11932 [Steve Henson]
11933
11934 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
11935 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
11936 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
11937 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
11938 [Bodo Moeller]
11939
11940 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
11941 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
11942 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
11943 [Steve Henson]
11944
11945 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
11946 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
11947 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
11948 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
11949 such programs?)
11950 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
11951 need locks.
11952 [Bodo Moeller]
11953
11954 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
11955 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
11956 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
11957 [Bodo Moeller]
11958
11959 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
11960 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
11961 appropriate.
11962 [Bodo Moeller]
11963
11964 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
11965 for the encoded length.
11966 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
11967
11968 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
11969 [Steve Henson]
11970
11971 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
11972 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
11973 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
11974 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
11975 [Steve Henson]
11976
11977 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
11978 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
11979 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11980
11981 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
11982 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
11983 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
11984 unusual formatting.
11985 [Steve Henson]
11986
11987 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
11988 to use the new extension code.
11989 [Steve Henson]
11990
11991 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
11992 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
11993 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
11994 constant.
11995 [Steve Henson]
11996
11997 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
11998 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
11999 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
12000 [Bodo Moeller]
12001
12002 #if 0
12003 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
12004 [Ben Laurie]
12005 #else
12006 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
12007 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
12008 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
12009 #endif
12010
12011 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
12012 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
12013 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
12014 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
12015 [Ben Laurie]
12016
12017 *) DES library cleanups.
12018 [Ulf Möller]
12019
12020 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
12021 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
12022 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
12023 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
12024 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
12025 of v2.0.
12026 [Steve Henson]
12027
12028 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
12029 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
12030 [Bodo Moeller]
12031
12032 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
12033 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
12034 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
12035 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
12036 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
12037 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
12038 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
12039 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
12040 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
12041 [Steve Henson]
12042
12043 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
12044 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
12045 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
12046 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
12047 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
12048 value doesn't matter.
12049 [Steve Henson]
12050
12051 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
12052 support mutable.
12053 [Ben Laurie]
12054
12055 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
12056 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
12057 "linux-sparc" configuration.
12058 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
12059
12060 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
12061 [Ulf Möller]
12062
12063 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
12064 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
12065 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12066
12067 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
12068 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12069
12070 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
12071 [Ben Laurie]
12072
12073 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
12074 [Ben Laurie]
12075
12076 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
12077 [Ben Laurie]
12078
12079 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
12080 [Bodo Moeller]
12081
12082
12083 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
12084
12085 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
12086
12087 *) Updated some demos.
12088 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
12089
12090 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
12091 [Wu Zhigang]
12092
12093 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
12094 [Steve Henson]
12095
12096 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
12097 [Steve Henson]
12098
12099 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
12100 instead of using a fixed path.
12101 [Bodo Moeller]
12102
12103 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
12104 [Andy Polyakov]
12105
12106 *) Improvements for VMS support.
12107 [Richard Levitte]
12108
12109
12110 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
12111
12112 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
12113 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
12114 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12115
12116 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
12117 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
12118 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
12119 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
12120 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
12121 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
12122 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
12123 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
12124 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
12125 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
12126 [Steve Henson]
12127
12128 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
12129 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
12130 [Steve Henson]
12131
12132 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
12133 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
12134 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
12135 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
12136 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
12137
12138 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
12139 [Bodo Moeller]
12140
12141 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
12142 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
12143 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
12144 [Steve Henson]
12145
12146 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
12147 [Ben Laurie]
12148
12149 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
12150 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
12151 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
12152 key elements as negative integers.
12153 [Steve Henson]
12154
12155 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
12156 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12157
12158 *) VMS support.
12159 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
12160
12161 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
12162 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
12163 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
12164 [Steve Henson]
12165
12166 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
12167 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
12168 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
12169 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
12170 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
12171 [Bodo Moeller]
12172
12173 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
12174 [Ulf Möller]
12175
12176 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
12177 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
12178 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
12179 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12180
12181 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
12182 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
12183 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
12184
12185 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
12186 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
12187 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
12188 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
12189 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
12190 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
12191 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
12192 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
12193 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
12194
12195 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
12196 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
12197 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
12198 does not influence s as it used to.
12199
12200 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
12201 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
12202 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
12203 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
12204 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
12205 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
12206 [Bodo Moeller]
12207
12208 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
12209 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
12210 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
12211 key type.
12212 [Steve Henson]
12213
12214 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
12215 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
12216 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
12217 and 'x509').
12218 [Steve Henson]
12219
12220 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
12221 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
12222 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12223 extension option.
12224 [Steve Henson]
12225
12226 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12227 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12228 [Ben Laurie]
12229
12230 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12231 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12232
12233 *) Support Mingw32.
12234 [Ulf Möller]
12235
12236 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12237 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12238
12239 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12240 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12241
12242 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12243 [Ulf Möller]
12244
12245 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12246 [Anonymous]
12247
12248 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12249 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12250
12251 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12252 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12253 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12254 DER-encoded.)
12255 [Bodo Moeller]
12256
12257 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12258 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12259 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12260 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12261 now it really counts the depth.
12262 [Bodo Moeller]
12263
12264 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12265 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12266 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12267 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12268 didn't match the private key).
12269
12270 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12271 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12272 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12273 [Bodo Moeller]
12274
12275 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12276 [Ulf Möller]
12277
12278 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12279 David Harris.
12280 [Bodo Moeller]
12281
12282 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12283 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12284 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12285 [Bodo Moeller]
12286
12287 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12288 [Bodo Moeller]
12289
12290 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12291 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12292 such as /usr/local/bin.
12293 [Bodo Moeller]
12294
12295 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12296 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12297
12298 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12299 [Ulf Möller]
12300
12301 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12302 extension adding in x509 utility.
12303 [Steve Henson]
12304
12305 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12306 [Ulf Möller]
12307
12308 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12309 prototypes.
12310 [Steve Henson]
12311
12312 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12313 [Ulf Möller]
12314
12315 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12316 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12317 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12318 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12319 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12320 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12321 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
12322 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12323 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12324 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12325 [Steve Henson]
12326
12327 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12328 [Bodo Moeller]
12329
12330 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12331 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12332 [Bodo Moeller]
12333
12334 *) Fix some race conditions.
12335 [Bodo Moeller]
12336
12337 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12338 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12339 [Steve Henson]
12340
12341 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12342 [Ulf Möller]
12343
12344 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12345 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12346 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12347 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12348
12349 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12350 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12351
12352 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12353 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12354 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12355
12356 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12357 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12358
12359 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12360 [Ulf Möller]
12361
12362 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12363 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12364
12365 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12366 [Ulf Möller]
12367
12368 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12369 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12370
12371 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12372 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12373 [Steve Henson]
12374
12375 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12376 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12377 [Ben Laurie]
12378
12379 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12380 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12381 [Steve Henson]
12382
12383 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12384 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12385 [Steve Henson]
12386
12387 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12388 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12389 [Steve Henson]
12390
12391 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12392 support typesafe stack.
12393 [Steve Henson]
12394
12395 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12396 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12397
12398 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12399 old X509V3 handling code.
12400 [Steve Henson]
12401
12402 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12403 [Ulf Möller]
12404
12405 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12406 [Bodo Moeller]
12407
12408 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12409 [Ben Laurie]
12410
12411 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12412 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12413
12414 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12415 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12416 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12417 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12418 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12419 [Ben Laurie]
12420
12421 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12422 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12423 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12424 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12425 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12426
12427 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12428 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12429 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12430 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12431
12432 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12433 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12434 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12435 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12436
12437 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12438 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12439 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12440 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12441 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12442 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12443 [Bodo Moeller]
12444
12445 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12446 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12447 [Bodo Moeller]
12448
12449 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12450 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12451 [Ulf Möller]
12452
12453 *) Tweaks to Configure
12454 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12455
12456 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12457 yet...
12458 [Steve Henson]
12459
12460 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12461 [Ulf Möller]
12462
12463 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12464 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12465 [Ulf Möller]
12466
12467 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12468 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12469 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12470 [Bodo Moeller]
12471
12472 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12473 [Bodo Moeller]
12474
12475 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12476 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12477 [Steve Henson]
12478
12479 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12480 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12481 to library startup routines.
12482 [Steve Henson]
12483
12484 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12485 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12486 codes along the way.
12487 [Steve Henson]
12488
12489 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12490 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12491 objects to objects.h
12492 [Steve Henson]
12493
12494 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12495 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12496 [Steve Henson]
12497
12498 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12499 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12500
12501 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12502 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12503 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12504
12505 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12506 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12507 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12508
12509 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12510 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12511 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12512
12513
12514 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
12515
12516 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
12517 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
12518 [Ben Laurie]
12519
12520 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
12521 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
12522 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
12523 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
12524 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
12525
12526 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
12527 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
12528 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
12529 document.
12530 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12531
12532 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
12533 Malloc, Free.
12534 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
12535
12536 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
12537 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12538
12539 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
12540 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
12541 if someone would make that last step automatic.
12542 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
12543
12544 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
12545 [Ben Laurie]
12546
12547 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
12548 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
12549 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
12550 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
12551 [Steve Henson]
12552
12553 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
12554 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
12555 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
12556 [Steve Henson]
12557
12558 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
12559 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
12560 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
12561 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
12562 installed as `perl').
12563 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12564
12565 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
12566 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12567
12568 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
12569 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
12570 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
12571 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
12572 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
12573 [Steve Henson]
12574
12575 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
12576 [Ben Laurie]
12577
12578 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
12579 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
12580 is horrible: I feel ill....
12581 [Steve Henson]
12582
12583 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
12584 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
12585 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
12586 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
12587 [Steve Henson]
12588
12589 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
12590 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12591
12592 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
12593 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
12594 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
12595 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12596
12597 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
12598 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
12599 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
12600 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
12601 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
12602 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
12603 openssl_bio.xs.
12604 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12605
12606 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
12607 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12608
12609 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
12610 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
12611
12612 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
12613 [Ben Laurie]
12614
12615 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
12616 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
12617 in CRLs.
12618 [Steve Henson]
12619
12620 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
12621 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
12622 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
12623 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
12624 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
12625 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
12626 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
12627 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
12628 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
12629 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
12630 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12631
12632 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
12633 [Ben Laurie]
12634
12635 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
12636 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
12637 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
12638 for linking it into DSOs.
12639 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12640
12641 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
12642 Fixed.
12643 [Ben Laurie]
12644
12645 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
12646 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
12647 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
12648 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
12649 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
12650 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12651
12652 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
12653 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
12654 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
12655 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
12656 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
12657 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
12658 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12659
12660 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
12661 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
12662 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
12663 encryption.
12664 [Ben Laurie]
12665
12666 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
12667 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
12668 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
12669 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
12670 [Steve Henson]
12671
12672 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
12673 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
12674 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
12675 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
12676 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
12677 field as blank.
12678 [Steve Henson]
12679
12680 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
12681 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
12682 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
12683 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
12684 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12685
12686 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
12687 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
12688 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12689
12690 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
12691 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12692
12693 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
12694 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
12695 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
12696 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
12697 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
12698 [Steve Henson]
12699
12700 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
12701 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
12702 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
12703 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
12704 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
12705 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
12706 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
12707 [Ben Laurie]
12708
12709 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
12710 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
12711 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
12712 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
12713 [Ben Laurie]
12714
12715 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
12716 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
12717
12718 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
12719 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
12720 [Steve Henson]
12721
12722 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
12723 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
12724 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
12725 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
12726 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
12727 (e.g. s_server).
12728 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
12729 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
12730 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
12731 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
12732 no way to reconfigure them.
12733 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
12734 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
12735 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
12736 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
12737 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
12738 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12739
12740 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
12741 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
12742 recognized by the users.
12743 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12744
12745 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
12746 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
12747 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
12748 already masked variable.
12749 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12750
12751 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
12752 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12753
12754 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
12755 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
12756 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
12757 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12758
12759 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
12760 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
12761 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12762
12763 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
12764 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
12765 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
12766 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
12767 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
12768 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
12769 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
12770 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
12771 now, too.
12772 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12773
12774 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
12775 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
12776 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12777
12778 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
12779 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
12780 config file.
12781 [Steve Henson]
12782
12783 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
12784 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12785
12786 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
12787 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
12788 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
12789 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
12790 [Ben Laurie]
12791
12792 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
12793 [Steve Henson]
12794
12795 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
12796 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12797
12798 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
12799 [Ben Laurie]
12800
12801 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
12802 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
12803 [Steve Henson]
12804
12805 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
12806 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
12807 [Steve Henson]
12808
12809 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
12810 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
12811 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
12812 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
12813 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
12814 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
12815 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
12816 Ben Laurie]
12817
12818 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
12819 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12820
12821 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
12822 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
12823 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
12824 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
12825 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12826
12827 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
12828 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
12829 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
12830 [Steve Henson]
12831
12832 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
12833 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
12834 an example.
12835 [Steve Henson]
12836
12837 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
12838 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
12839 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12840
12841 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
12842 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
12843 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
12844 build instructions.
12845 [Steve Henson]
12846
12847 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
12848 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
12849 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
12850 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
12851 [Steve Henson]
12852
12853 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
12854 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
12855 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
12856 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
12857 [Ben Laurie]
12858
12859 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
12860 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
12861 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
12862 so it wasn't spotted.
12863 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
12864
12865 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
12866 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
12867 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
12868 vectors if you have them.
12869 [Ben Laurie]
12870
12871 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
12872 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
12873 [Ben Laurie]
12874
12875 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
12876 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
12877 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
12878 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
12879 If you do a:
12880 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
12881 it will update them.
12882 [Steve Henson]
12883
12884 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
12885 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
12886 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
12887 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
12888 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
12889 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
12890 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
12891 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12892
12893 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
12894 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
12895 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
12896 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
12897 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
12898 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
12899 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
12900 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
12901 the crypto/md/ stuff).
12902 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12903
12904 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
12905 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
12906 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
12907 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
12908 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
12909 [Steve Henson]
12910
12911 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
12912 INTEGER code.
12913 [Steve Henson]
12914
12915 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
12916 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12917
12918 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
12919 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12920
12921 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
12922 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
12923 [Ben Laurie]
12924
12925 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
12926 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
12927
12928 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
12929 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
12930
12931 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
12932 [Steve Henson]
12933
12934 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
12935 few typos.
12936 [Steve Henson]
12937
12938 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
12939 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
12940 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
12941 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12942
12943 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12944 [Steve Henson]
12945
12946 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12947 [Steve Henson]
12948
12949 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
12950 [Steve Henson]
12951
12952 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
12953 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
12954 [Steve Henson]
12955
12956 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
12957 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
12958 CA extensions.
12959 [Steve Henson]
12960
12961 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
12962 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
12963 [Steve Henson]
12964
12965 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
12966 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
12967 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
12968 [Steve Henson]
12969
12970 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
12971 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
12972 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
12973 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
12974 properly to be processed.
12975 [Steve Henson]
12976
12977 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
12978 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
12979 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
12980 [Ben Laurie]
12981
12982 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
12983 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
12984
12985 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
12986 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
12987 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
12988 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
12989 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
12990 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
12991 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
12992 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
12993 or delete all the .err files.
12994 [Steve Henson]
12995
12996 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
12997 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
12998 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
12999 to regenerate it if needed.
13000 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
13001 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
13002
13003 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
13004 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13005
13006 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
13007 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
13008 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
13009 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
13010 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
13011 [Steve Henson]
13012
13013 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
13014 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13015
13016 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
13017 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13018
13019 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
13020 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
13021 error, but didn't set one).
13022 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13023
13024 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
13025 [Ben Laurie]
13026
13027 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
13028 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
13029 [Steve Henson]
13030
13031 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
13032 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
13033
13034 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
13035 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
13036 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
13037 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
13038 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
13039 OID is not part of the table.
13040 [Steve Henson]
13041
13042 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
13043 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
13044 [Ben Laurie]
13045
13046 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
13047 [Ben Laurie]
13048
13049 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
13050 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
13051 was "1234").
13052 [Steve Henson]
13053
13054 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
13055 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
13056
13057 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
13058 NULL pointers.
13059 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13060
13061 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
13062 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13063
13064 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
13065 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13066
13067 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
13068 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13069
13070 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
13071 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
13072 [Ben Laurie]
13073
13074 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
13075 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
13076 [Steve Henson]
13077
13078 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
13079 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13080
13081 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
13082 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13083
13084 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
13085 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13086
13087 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
13088 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13089
13090 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
13091 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
13092 unused in the certificate verification process.
13093 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13094
13095 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
13096 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
13097 [Steve Henson]
13098
13099 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
13100 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
13101 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
13102
13103 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
13104 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
13105 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
13106 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
13107 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
13108
13109 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
13110 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
13111 [Steve Henson]
13112
13113 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
13114 [Steve Henson]
13115
13116 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
13117 [Paul Sutton]
13118
13119 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
13120 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
13121
13122 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
13123 [Ben Laurie]
13124
13125 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
13126 [Ben Laurie]
13127
13128 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
13129 [Ben Laurie]
13130
13131 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
13132 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
13133 other error libraries.
13134 [Steve Henson]
13135
13136 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
13137 [Steve Henson]
13138
13139 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
13140 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
13141 be read in.
13142 [Steve Henson]
13143
13144 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
13145 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
13146 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
13147 the new set of documentation files.
13148 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13149
13150 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
13151 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
13152 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
13153 number of arguments.
13154 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
13155
13156 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
13157 [Ben Laurie]
13158
13159 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
13160 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
13161 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13162
13163 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
13164 [Ben Laurie]
13165
13166 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
13167 nextstep
13168 ncr-scde
13169 unixware-2.0
13170 unixware-2.0-pentium
13171 sco5-cc.
13172 [Ben Laurie]
13173
13174 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
13175 before they are needed.
13176 [Ben Laurie]
13177
13178 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
13179 [Ben Laurie]
13180
13181
13182 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
13183
13184 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
13185 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
13186 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13187
13188 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
13189 [Paul Sutton]
13190
13191 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
13192 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
13193 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13194
13195 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
13196 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
13197 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
13198
13199 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
13200 when "ssleay" is still not found.
13201 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13202
13203 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
13204 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
13205
13206 *) Updated the README file.
13207 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13208
13209 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
13210 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
13211 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13212
13213 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
13214 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
13215 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13216
13217 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
13218 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
13219 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
13220 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
13221 o removed obsolete TODO file
13222 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
13223 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13224
13225 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
13226 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
13227 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
13228 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
13229 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
13230 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
13231 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13232
13233 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
13234 [Mark J. Cox]
13235
13236 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
13237 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
13238 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
13239 summer 1998.
13240 [The OpenSSL Project]
13241
13242
13243 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
13244
13245 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
13246 [Eric A. Young]
13247
13248 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
13249 [Eric A. Young]
13250
13251 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
13252 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
13253 [Eric A. Young]
13254
13255 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
13256 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
13257 available).
13258 [Eric A. Young]
13259
13260 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
13261 binary structures
13262 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
13263
13264 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
13265 [Eric A. Young]
13266
13267 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
13268 [Eric A. Young]
13269
13270 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
13271 [Eric A. Young]
13272
13273 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
13274 [Eric A. Young]
13275
13276 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
13277 [Eric A. Young]
13278
13279 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
13280 [Eric A. Young]
13281
13282 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
13283 [Eric A. Young]
13284
13285 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
13286 [Eric A. Young]
13287
13288 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
13289 [Eric A. Young]
13290
13291 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
13292 [Eric A. Young]
13293
13294 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
13295 [Eric A. Young]
13296
13297 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
13298 [Eric A. Young]
13299
13300 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
13301 [Eric A. Young]
13302
13303 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
13304 [Eric A. Young]
13305
13306 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
13307 [Eric A. Young]
13308
13309 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
