4
5 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7 [xx XXX 2000]
6
7 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
8
9 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
10 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
11 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
12 that.
13
14 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
15
16 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
17
18 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
19 static ones.
20 [Richard Levitte]
21
22 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
23 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
24 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
25 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
26 this case.
27 [Steve Henson]
28
29 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
30 [Ben Laurie]
31
32 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
33 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
34 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
35 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
36 set.
37 [Steve Henson]
38
39 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
40 [Richard Levitte]
41
42 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
43
44 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
45 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
46 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
47 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
48 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
49
50 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
51 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
52 matter what.
53 [Richard Levitte]
54
55 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
56
57 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
58 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
59 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
60 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
61 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
62 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
63 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
64 by the Finished messages.
65 [Bodo Moeller]
66
67 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
68 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
69
70 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
71 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
72 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
73 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
74 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
75 appropriately.
76 [Steve Henson]
77
78 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
79 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
80 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
81 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
82 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
83 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
84 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
85 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
86 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
87 together.
88 [Steve Henson]
89
90 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
91 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
92 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
93 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
94
95 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
96 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
97 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
98 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
99 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
100 the answer.
101
102 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
103 been tested well enough.
104 [Richard Levitte]
105
106 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
107 it can return incorrect results.
108 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
109 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
110 [Bodo Moeller]
111
112 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
113 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
114 include zero length content when signing messages.
115 [Steve Henson]
116
117 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
118 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
119 [Bodo Möller]
120
121 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
122 [Richard Levitte]
123
124 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
125 wrong sign.
126 [Ulf Möller]
127
128 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
129 packages. The default package contains applications, application
130 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
131 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
132 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
133 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
134 [Richard Levitte]
135
136 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
137 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
138
139 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
140 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
141
142 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
143 random number < q in the DSA library.
144 [Ulf Möller]
145
146 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
147 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
148 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
149 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
150 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
151 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
152 just makes things more complicated.)
153 [Bodo Moeller]
154
155 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
156 from EGD.
157 [Ben Laurie]
158
159 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
160 work better on such systems.
161 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
162
163 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
164 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
165 keyid to the certificates aux info.
166 [Steve Henson]
167
168 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
169 if there was more than one signature.
170 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
171
172 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
173 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
174 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
175 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
176 [Richard Levitte]
177
178 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
179 rather than always using the current time.
180 [Steve Henson]
181
182 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
183 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
184 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
185 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
186 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
187 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
188
189 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
190 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
191
192 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
193
194 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
195 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
196 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
197 the same hash value.
198
199 As a result various functions (which were all internal
200 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
201 structure. This will break anything that messed round
202 with X509_STORE internally.
203
204 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
205 exact match, rather than just subject name.
206
207 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
208 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
209 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
210 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
211 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
212 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
213 entirely (maybe later...).
214
215 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
216
217 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
218 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
219 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
220 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
221 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
222 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
223 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
224 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
225
226 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
227 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
228
229 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
230 to customise the verify behaviour.
231 [Steve Henson]
232
233 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
234 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
235 [Steve Henson]
236
237 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
238 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
239 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
240 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
241 request is improperly encoded.
242 [Steve Henson]
243
244 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
245 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
246 BIO_write(b, ...).
247
248 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
249 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
250
251 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
252 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
253 words set to zero.)
254 [Bodo Moeller]
255
256 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
257 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
258 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
259 [Bodo Moeller]
260
261 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
262 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
263 BIO/fp routines also added.
264 [Steve Henson]
265
266 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
267 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
268
269 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
270 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
271 demos/state_machine.
272 [Ben Laurie]
273
274 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
275 generation and verification.
276 [Steve Henson]
277
278 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
279 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
280 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
281 encode and decode it manually.
282 [Steve Henson]
283
284 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
285 compile under VC++.
286 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
287
288 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
289 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
290 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
291 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
292
293 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
294 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
295 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
296 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
297 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
298 [Steve Henson]
299
300 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
301 [Richard Levitte]
302
303 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
304 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
305 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
306
307 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
308 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
309 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
310 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
311 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
312 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
313 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
314 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
315
316 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
317 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
318
319 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
320
321 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
322 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
323 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
324
325 [Richard Levitte]
326
327 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
328 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
329 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
330 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
331 [Richard Levitte]
332
333 *) MD4 implemented.
334 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
335
336 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
337 [Richard Levitte]
338
339 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
340 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
341 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
342 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
343 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
344 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
345 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
346 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
347 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
348 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
349 short or long names are found.
350 [Steve Henson]
351
352 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
353 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
354
355 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
356 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
357 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
358 version rollback attacks was not effective.
359
360 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
361 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
362 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
363 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
364 [Bodo Moeller]
365
366 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
367 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
368 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
369 [Richard Levitte]
370
371 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
372 these print out strings and name structures based on various
373 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
374 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
375 to allow the various flags to be set.
376 [Steve Henson]
377
378 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
379 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
380 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
381 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
382 dates to be checked.
383 [Steve Henson]
384
385 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
386 negative public key encodings) on by default,
387 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
388 [Steve Henson]
389
390 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
391 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
392 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
393 [Steve Henson]
394
395 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
396 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
397 [Bodo Moeller]
398
399 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
400 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
401 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
402 are always statically linked for now, but there are
403 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
404 This has been tested on Linux and True64.
405 [Richard Levitte]
406
407 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
408 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
409 Random Numbers.
410 [Ulf Möller]
411
412 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
413 DSA key.
414 [Steve Henson]
415
416 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
417 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
418 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
419 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
420 form signing output easier to verify.
421 [Steve Henson]
422
423 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
424 [Steve Henson]
425
426 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
427 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
428 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
429 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
430 are needed because all other string types have virtually
431 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
432 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
433 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
434 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
435 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
436 [Steve Henson]
437
438 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
439
440 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
441 the syntax given in objects.README.
442 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
443 obj_mac.h.
444 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
445 obj_mac.h.
446
447 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
448 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
449 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
450 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
451 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
452 consistent name changes.
453 [Richard Levitte]
454
455 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
456 [Bodo Moeller]
457
458 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
459 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
460 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
461 environment variable, or the default random state file.
462 [Richard Levitte]
463
464 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
465 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
466 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
467 of safestack.h .
468 [Steve Henson]
469
470 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
471 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
472 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
473 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
474 [Steve Henson]
475
476 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
477 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
478 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
479 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
480 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
481 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
482 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
483 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
484 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
485 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
486 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
487 [Steve Henson]
488
489 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
490 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
491 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
492 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
493 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
494 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
495 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
496 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
497 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
498 algorithm to openssl-dev.
499 [Steve Henson]
500
501 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
502 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
503 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
504 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
505
506 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
507 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
508 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
509 omit any duplicate addresses.
510 [Steve Henson]
511
512 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
513 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
514 [Bodo Moeller]
515
516 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
517 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
518 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
519 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
520 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
521 [Bodo Moeller]
522
523 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
524 software:
525 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
526 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
527 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
528 Free => OPENSSL_free
529 [Richard Levitte]
530
531 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
532 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
533 [Bodo Moeller]
534
535 *) CygWin32 support.
536 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
537
538 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
539 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
540 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
541 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
542 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
543 approach.
544 [Geoff Thorpe]
545
546 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
547 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
548 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
549 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
550 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
551 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
552 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
553 [Geoff Thorpe]
554
555 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
556 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
557 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
558 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
559 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
560 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
561 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
562 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
563 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
564 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
565 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
566 [Bodo Moeller]
567
568 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
569 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
570 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
571 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
572 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
573
574 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
575 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
576 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
577 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
578 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
579
580 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
581 ciphers.
582
583 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
584 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
585 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
586 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
587
588 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
589
590 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
591 of macros.
592
593 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
594 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
595 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
596 flags.
597
598 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
599 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
600 any installed hardware versions can.
601 [Steve Henson]
602
603 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
604 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
605 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
606 number.
607 [Bodo Moeller]
608
609 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
610 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
611 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
612 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
613 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
614
615 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
616 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
617 [Steve Henson]
618
619 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
620 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
621 [Richard Levitte]
622
623 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
624 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
625 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
626 features.
627 [Steve Henson]
628
629 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
630 [Ulf Möller]
631
632 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
633 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
634 but no ssl client purpose.
635 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
636
637 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
638 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
639 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
640 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
641 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
642 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
643 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
644 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
645 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
646 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
647 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
648 [Steve Henson]
649
650 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
651 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
652 be obtained from the error queue.
653 [Bodo Moeller]
654
655 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
656 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
657 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
658 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
659 [Bodo Moeller]
660
661 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
662 [Ulf Möller]
663
664 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
665 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
666 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
667 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
668 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
669 [Geoff Thorpe]
670
671 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
672 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
673 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
674 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
675 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
676 [Geoff Thorpe]
677
678 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
679 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
680 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
681 may not be NULL.
682 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
683
684 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
685 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
686 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
687 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
688 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
689 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
690 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
691 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
692 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
693 or "the configuration storage API"...
694
695 The new configuration file reading functions are:
696
697 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
698 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
699
700 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
701
702 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
703
704 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
705 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
706 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
707 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
708 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
709 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
710 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
711
712 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
713 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
714 [Richard Levitte]
715
716 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
717 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
718 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
719 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
720 [Bodo Moeller]
721
722 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
723 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
724 them in a portable way.
725 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
726
727 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
728
729 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
730
731 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
732 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
733
734 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
735 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
736 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
737 <attili@amaxo.com>]
738
739 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
740 was larger than the MD block size.
741 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
742
743 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
744 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
745 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
746 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
747 components.
748 [Steve Henson]
749
750 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
751 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
752 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
753
754 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
755 discouraged.
756 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
757
758 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
759 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
760 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
761 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
762 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
763 Additional arguments are always ignored.
764
765 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
766 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
767
768 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
769 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
770 [Bodo Moeller]
771
772 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
773 [Bodo Moeller]
774
775 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
776 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
777 its own key.
778 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
779 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
780 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
781 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
782 [Bodo Moeller]
783
784 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
785 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
786 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
787 does not suppress any output.
788 [Richard Levitte]
789
790 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
791 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
792 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
793 with all the associated security issues.
794
795 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
796 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
797 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
798 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
799 use the value in the default purpose.
800 [Steve Henson]
801
802 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
803 and fix a memory leak.
804 [Steve Henson]
805
806 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
807 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
808 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
809 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
810 [Bodo Moeller]
811
812 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
813 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
814 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
815 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
816 [Bodo Moeller]
817
818 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
819 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
820 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
821 [Bodo Moeller]
822
823 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
824 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
825 [Bodo Moeller]
826
827 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
828 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
829 which was free.
830 [Steve Henson]
831
832 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
833 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
834 [Bodo Moeller]
835
836 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
837 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
838 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
839 [Bodo Moeller]
840
841 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
842 number generation fails.
843 [Bodo Moeller]
844
845 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
846 [Bodo Moeller]
847
848 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
849 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
850
851 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
852 [Ulf Möller]
853
854 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
855 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
856
857 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
858 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
859
860 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
861
862 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
863 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
864 [Steve Henson]
865
866 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
867 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
868
869 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
870 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
871 [Ulf Möller]
872
873 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
874 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
875 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
876 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
877 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
878 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
879
880 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
881 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
882 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
883 for example.
884 [Steve Henson]
885
886 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
887 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
888 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
889 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
890 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
891 counter, some don't.)
892 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
893 counters or duplicate objects.
894 [Steve Henson]
895
896 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
897 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
898 [Steve Henson]
899
900 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
901 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
902 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
903
904 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
905 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
906 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
907 or -rand.
908 [Ulf Möller]
909
910 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
911 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
912 [Steve Henson]
913
914 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
915 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
916 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
917 cipher list.
918 [Steve Henson]
919
920 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
921 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
922 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
923 [Steve Henson]
924
925 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
926 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
927 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
928 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
929 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
930 should work without changes.
931 [Richard Levitte]
932
933 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
934 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
935 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
936 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
937 must be defined. E.g.,
938 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
939 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
940 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
941 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
942
943 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
944 record layer.
945 [Bodo Moeller]
946
947 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
948 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
949 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
950 [Steve Henson]
951
952 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
953 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
954 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
955 request header lines. Some software needs this.
956 [Steve Henson]
957
958 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
959 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
960 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
961 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
962 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
963 is prompted for as usual.
964 [Steve Henson]
965
966 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
967 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
968 autodetect the card and use it if present.
969 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
970
971 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
972 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
973 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
974 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
975 [Steve Henson]
976
977 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
978 [Andy Polyakov]
979
980 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
981 of seed file.
982 [Steve Henson]
983
984 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
985 [Bodo Moeller]
986
987 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
988 [Steve Henson]
989
990 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
991 bits.
992 [Ulf Möller]
993
994 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
995 [Ulf Möller]
996
997 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
998 [Andy Polyakov]
999
1000 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
1001 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
1002 [Ulf Möller]
1003
1004 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
1005 options to produce them.
1006 [Steve Henson]
1007
1008 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
1009 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
1010 [Ulf Möller]
1011
1012 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
1013 for p == 0.
1014 [Ulf Möller]
1015
1016 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
1017 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
1018 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
1019 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
1020 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
1021 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
1022 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
1023 [Steve Henson]
1024
1025 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
1026 [Steve Henson]
1027
1028 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
1029 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
1030 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
1031 [Bodo Moeller]
1032
1033 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
1034 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
1035
1036 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
1037 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
1038 [Ulf Möller]
1039
1040 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
1041 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
1042 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
1043 has already seen).
1044 [Bodo Moeller]
1045
1046 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
1047 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
1048
1049 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
1050 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
1051 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
1052 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
1053 generation becomes much faster.
1054
1055 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
1056 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
1057 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
1058 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
1059 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
1060 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
1061 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
1062 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
1063 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
1064 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
1065 [Bodo Moeller]
1066
1067 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
1068 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
1069 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
1070 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
1071 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
1072 trial division stage.
1073 [Bodo Moeller]
1074
1075 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
1076 as ASN1_TIME.
1077 [Steve Henson]
1078
1079 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
1080 [Steve Henson]
1081
1082 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
1083 [Ulf Möller]
1084
1085 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
1086 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
1087 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
1088 the comments.
1089 [Ulf Möller]
1090
1091 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
1092 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
1093 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
1094 [Bodo Moeller]
1095
1096 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
1097 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
1098 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
1099 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
1100
1101 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
1102 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
1103 [Steve Henson]
1104
1105 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
1106 [Ulf Möller]
1107
1108 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
1109 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
1110 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
1111 Rabin-Miller iterations.
1112 [Ulf Möller]
1113
1114 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
1115 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
1116 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
1117 [Ulf Möller]
1118
1119 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
1120 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
1121 (instead of parameters) in future.
1122 [Steve Henson]
1123
1124 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
1125 when a new cipher list is set.
1126 [Steve Henson]
1127
1128 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
1129 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
1130 wrong.
1131
1132 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
1133 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
1134 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
1135
1136 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
1137 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
1138 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
1139 an error is flagged.
1140
1141 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
1142 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
1143 the readability was also increased :-)
1144 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
1145
1146 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
1147 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
1148 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
1149 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
1150 as the root CA.
1151 [Steve Henson]
1152
1153 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
1154 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
1155 [Steve Henson]
1156
1157 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
1158 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
1159 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
1160 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
1161 instead.
1162
1163 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
1164 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
1165 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
1166 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
1167 because they handle more complex structures.)
1168 [Steve Henson]
1169
1170 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
1171 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
1172 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
1173 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
1174
1175 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
1176 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
1177 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
1178 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
1179 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
1180 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
1181 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
1182 [Ulf Möller]
1183
1184 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
1185 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
1186 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
1187 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
1188 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
1189 [Bodo Moeller]
1190
1191 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
1192 [Bodo Moeller]
1193
1194 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
1195 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
1196 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
1197 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
1198 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
1199 to use this.
1200
1201 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
1202 code.
1203 [Steve Henson]
1204
1205 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
1206 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
1207 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
1208 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
1209 [Steve Henson]
1210
1211 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
1212 [Ulf Möller]
1213
1214 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
1215 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
1216 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
1217 international characters are used.
1218
1219 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
1220 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
1221 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
1222 in ASN1 order.
1223 [Steve Henson]
1224
1225 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
1226 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
1227 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
1228 request.
1229
1230 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
1231 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
1232 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
1233 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
1234 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
1235 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
1236
1237 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
1238 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
1239 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
1240 be handled by the string table functions.
1241
1242 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
1243 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
1244 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
1245 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
1246 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
1247 types at all.
1248 [Steve Henson]
1249
1250 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
1251 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
1252 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
1253 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
1254 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
1255
1256 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
1257 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
1258 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
1259 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
1260 [Bodo Moeller]
1261
1262 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
1263 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
1264 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
1265 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
1266 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
1267 SHA1.
1268 [Andy Polyakov]
1269
1270 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
1271 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
1272 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
1273 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
1274 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
1275 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
1276 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
1277 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
1278
1279 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
1280 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
1281 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
1282 [Steve Henson]
1283
1284 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
1285 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
1286 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
1287 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
1288 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
1289 support to pkcs8 application.
1290 [Steve Henson]
1291
1292 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
1293 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
1294 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
1295 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
1296 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
1297 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
1298 [Bodo Moeller]
1299
1300 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
1301 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
1302 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
1303 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
1304 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
1305 consistency.
1306 [Bodo Moeller]
1307
1308 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
1309 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
1310 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
1311 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
1312 example.
1313 [Steve Henson]
1314
1315 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
1316 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
1317 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
1318 and any application specific purposes.
1319
1320 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
1321 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
1322 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
1323 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
1324 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
1325 if the certificate is self signed.
1326 [Steve Henson]
1327
1328 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
1329 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
1330 [Steve Henson]
1331
1332 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
1333 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
1334 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
1335 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
1336 [Steve Henson]
1337
1338 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
1339 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
1340 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
1341 Update documentation.
1342 [Steve Henson]
1343
1344 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
1345 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
1346 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
1347 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
1348 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
1349 [Steve Henson]
1350
1351 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
1352 for details.
1353 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
1354
1355 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
1356 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
1357 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
1358 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
1359 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
1360 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
1361 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
1362 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
1363 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
1364 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
1365
1366 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
1367
1368 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
1369 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
1370 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
1371 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
1372 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
1373
1374 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
1375 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
1376 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
1377 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
1378 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
1379 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
1380 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
1381 request additional information:
1382 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
1383 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
1384
1385 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
1386 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
1387 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
1388 options.
1389
1390 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
1391 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
1392
1393 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
1394 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
1395 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
1396
1397 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
1398 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
1399
1400 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
1401 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
1402 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
1403 algorithm.
1404 [Steve Henson]
1405
1406 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
1407 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
1408 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
1409
1410 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
1411 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
1412 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
1413 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
1414 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
1415 included in OpenSSL.
1416 [Steve Henson]
1417
1418 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
1419 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
1420 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
1421 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
1422 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
1423 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
1424 [Bodo Moeller]
1425
1426 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
1427 PKCS12 structure.
1428 [Steve Henson]
1429
1430 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
1431 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
1432 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
1433 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
1434 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
1435 structure.
1436 [Steve Henson]
1437
1438 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
1439 need initialising.
1440 [Steve Henson]
1441
1442 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
1443 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
1444 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
1445 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
1446 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
1447 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
1448 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
1449 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
1450 be maintained manually.
1451
1452 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
1453 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
1454 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
1455 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
1456 work because people forget to call this function]
1457 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
1458 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
1459 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
1460 [Steve Henson]
1461
1462 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
1463 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
1464 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
1465 should be discouraged from doing it.
1466 [Ben Laurie]
1467
1468 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
1469 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
1470 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
1471 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
1472 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
1473 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
1474 [Steve Henson]
1475
1476 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
1477 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
1478 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
1479
1480 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
1481 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
1482 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
1483
1484 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
1485 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
1486 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
1487 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
1488 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
1489 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
1490
1491 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
1492 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
1493 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
1494
1495 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
1496 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
1497 and vice versa.
1498
1499 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
1500 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
1501 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
1502 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
1503 [Steve Henson]
1504
1505 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
1506 [Steve Henson]
1507
1508 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
1509 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
1510 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
1511 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
1512 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
1513 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
1514 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
1515 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
1516 keys so we should be OK.
1517
1518 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
1519 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
1520 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
1521 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
1522 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
1523 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
1524 stay in the name of compatibility.
1525
1526 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
1527 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
1528 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
1529
1530 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
1531 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
1532 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
1533 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
1534 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
1535 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
1536 supplied key).
1537 [Steve Henson]
1538
1539 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
1540 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
1541 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
1542 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
1543 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
1544 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
1545 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
1546 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
1547 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
1548 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
1549 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
1550 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
1551 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
1552 [Steve Henson]
1553
1554 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
1555 [Steve Henson]
1556
1557 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
1558 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
1559 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
1560 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
1561 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
1562 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
1563 single self signed certificate. This means that:
1564 openssl verify ss.pem
1565 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
1566 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
1567 is OK.
1568 [Steve Henson]
1569
1570 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
1571 (and add it to external session representation).
1572 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
1573 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
1574 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
1575 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
1576 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
1577 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
1578 security holes.
1579 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
1580
1581 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
1582 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
1583 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
1584 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
1585
1586 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
1587 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
1588 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
1589 [Steve Henson]
1590
1591 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
1592 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
1593 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
1594 code.
1595 [Steve Henson]
1596
1597 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
1598 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
1599 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
1600
1601 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
1602 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
1603 certificate auxiliary information.
1604 [Steve Henson]
1605
1606 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
1607 the 'enc' command.
1608 [Steve Henson]
1609
1610 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
1611 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
1612 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
1613 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
1614 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
1615 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
1616 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
1617 [Richard Levitte]
1618
1619 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
1620 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
1621 [Steve Henson]
1622
1623 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
1624 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
1625 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
1626 manpages and fix a few bugs.
1627 [Steve Henson]
1628
1629 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
1630 [Steve Henson]
1631
1632 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
1633 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
1634 [Steve Henson]
1635
1636 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
1637 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
1638 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
1639 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
1640 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
1641 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
1642 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
1643 using the new 'x509' options.
1644
1645 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
1646 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
1647 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
1648 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
1649 for all purposes.
1650 [Steve Henson]
1651
1652 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
1653 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
1654 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
1655 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
1656 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
1657 [Mark Cox]
1658
1659 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
1660 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
1661 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
1662 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
1663 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
1664 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
1665 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
1666 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
1667 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
1668 the key length and effective key length are equal.
1669 [Steve Henson]
1670
1671 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
1672 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
1673 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
1674 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
1675 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
1676 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
1677 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
1678 [Steve Henson]
1679
1680 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
1681 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
1682 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
1683 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
1684 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
1685 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
1686 openssl.cnf for more info.
1687 [Steve Henson]
1688
1689 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
1690 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
1691 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
1692 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
1693 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
1694 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
1695 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
1696 md should be large enough anyway.
1697 [Bodo Moeller]
1698
1699 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
1700 for handling the random seed file.
1701
1702 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
1703 ca,
1704 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
1705 s_client,
1706 s_server,
1707 x509 (when signing).
1708 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
1709 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
1710 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
1711
1712 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
1713 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
1714 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
1715 that support '-rand'.
1716 [Bodo Moeller]
1717
1718 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
1719 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
1720 [Bodo Moeller]
1721
1722 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
1723 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
1724 [Bill Perry]
1725
1726 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
1727 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
1728 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
1729 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
1730 is suitable.
1731 [Steve Henson]
1732
1733 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
1734 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
1735 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
1736 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
1737 [Steve Henson]
1738
1739 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
1740 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
1741 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
1742 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
1743 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
1744 print out all the purposes.
1745 [Steve Henson]
1746
1747 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
1748 functions.
1749 [Steve Henson]
1750
1751 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
1752 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
1753 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
1754 single function call.
1755 [Steve Henson]
1756
1757 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
1758 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
1759 [Andy Polyakov]
1760
1761 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
1762 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
1763 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
1764 [Steve Henson]
1765
1766 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
1767 when producing the local key id.
1768 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
1769
1770 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
1771 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
1772 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
1773 "server.pem".
1774 [Steve Henson]
1775
1776 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
1777 a public key to be input or output. For example:
1778 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
1779 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
1780 [Steve Henson]
1781
1782 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
1783 in the message. This was handled by allowing
1784 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
1785 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
1786
1787 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
1788 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
1789 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
1790 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1791
1792 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
1793 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
1794 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
1795 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
1796 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
1797 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
1798 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
1799 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
1800 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
1801 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
1802 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
1803 trivial: move one line.
1804 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
1805
1806 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
1807 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
1808 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
1809 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
1810 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
1811 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
1812 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
1813 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
1814 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
1815 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
1816 with an event loop for example.
1817 [Steve Henson]
1818
1819 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
1820 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
1821 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
1822 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
1823 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
1824 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
1825 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
1826 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
1827 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
1828 [Steve Henson]
1829
1830 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
1831 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
1832 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
1833 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
1834 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
1835 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
1836 [Steve Henson]
1837
1838 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
1839 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
1840 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
1841 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
1842
1843 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
1844 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
1845 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
1846 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
1847 key generation.
1848 [Steve Henson]
1849
1850 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
1851 (still largely untested)
1852 [Bodo Moeller]
1853
1854 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
1855 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
1856 [Steve Henson]
1857
1858 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
1859 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
1860 [Steve Henson]
1861
1862 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
1863 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
1864 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
1865 [Bodo Moeller]
1866
1867 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
1868 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
1869 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
1870 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
1871 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
1872 [Steve Henson]
1873
1874 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
1875 [Andy Polyakov]
1876
1877 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
1878 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
1879 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
1880 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
1881 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
1882 in ca.
1883 [Steve Henson]
1884
1885 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
1886 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
1887 1.OU="Unit name 1"
1888 2.OU="Unit name 2"
1889 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
1890 [Steve Henson]
1891
1892 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
1893 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
1894 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
1895 are otherwise ignored at present.
1896 [Steve Henson]
1897
1898 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
1899 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
1900 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
1901 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
1902 copied until the next read.
1903 [Steve Henson]
1904
1905 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
1906 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
1907 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
1908 [Steve Henson]
1909
1910 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
1911 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
1912 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
1913 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
1914 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
1915 associated functions.
1916 [Steve Henson]
1917
1918 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
1919 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
1920 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
1921 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
1922 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
1923 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
1924 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
1925 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
1926 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
1927 memory BIOs.
1928 [Steve Henson]
1929
1930 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
1931 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
1932 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
1933 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
1934 [Bodo Moeller]
1935
1936 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
1937 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
1938 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
1939 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
1940 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
1941 functionality.
1942 [Steve Henson]
1943
1944 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
1945 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
1946 under Win32.
1947 [Steve Henson]
1948
1949 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
1950 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
1951 extensions to be obtained and added.
1952 [Steve Henson]
1953
1954 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
1955 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
1956 [Bodo Moeller]
1957
1958 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
1959
1960 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
1961 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1962
1963 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
1964 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
1965
1966 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
1967 program.
1968 [Steve Henson]
1969
1970 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
1971 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
1972 DH parameters contain its length).
1973
1974 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
1975 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
1976 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
1977 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
1978 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
1979 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
1980 utter importance to use
1981 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
1982 or
1983 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
1984 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
1985 attacks may become possible!
1986 [Bodo Moeller]
1987
1988 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
1989 [Bodo Moeller]
1990
1991 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
1992 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
1993 [Steve Henson]
1994
1995 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
1996 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
1997 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
1998 or long name.
1999 [Steve Henson]
2000
2001 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
2002 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
2003 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
2004 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
2005 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
2006 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
2007 private key operations.
2008 [Steve Henson]
2009
2010 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
2011 [Andy Polyakov]
2012
2013 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
2014 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
2015 to
2016 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
2017 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
2018 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
2019 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
2020 the password callback is called.
2021 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
2022
2023 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
2024
2025 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
2026 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
2027 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
2028 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
2029 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
2030 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
2031 this will work.
2032
2033 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
2034 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
2035 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
2036 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
2037 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
2038 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
2039 [Bodo Moeller]
2040
2041 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
2042 [Andy Polyakov]
2043
2044 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
2045 delete an unused file.
2046 [Ulf Möller]
2047
2048 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
2049 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
2050 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
2051 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
2052 [Steve Henson]
2053
2054 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
2055 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
2056 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
2057 of an error.
2058 [Bodo Moeller]
2059
2060 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
2061 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
2062 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
2063
2064 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
2065 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
2066 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
2067 comparison" warnings.
2068 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
2069 [Steve Henson]
2070
2071 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
2072 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
2073 derived keys are printed to stderr.
2074 [Steve Henson]
2075
2076 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
2077 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
2078
2079 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
2080 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
2081
2082 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
2083 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
2084 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
2085
2086 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
2087 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
2088 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
2089 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
2090 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
2091 this bug.
2092 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
2093
2094 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
2095 The interface is as follows:
2096 Applications can use
2097 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
2098 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
2099 "off" is now the default.
2100 The library internally uses
2101 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
2102 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
2103 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
2104
2105 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
2106 even the default) are now avoided.
2107
2108 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
2109 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
2110 than just having a counter.
2111
2112 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
2113
2114 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
2115 extensions.
2116 [Bodo Moeller]
2117
2118 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
2119 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
2120 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
2121 Initial "mode" flags are:
2122
2123 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
2124 a single record has been written.
2125 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
2126 retries use the same buffer location.
2127 (But all of the contents must be
2128 copied!)
2129 [Bodo Moeller]
2130
2131 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_mode ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_mode
2132 worked.
2133
2134 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
2135 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
2136
2137 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
2138 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
2139 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
2140 [Steve Henson]
2141
2142 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
2143 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
2144 test programs.
2145 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
2146
2147 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
2148 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
2149 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
2150 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
2151 point to the end.
2152 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
2153 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
2154
2155 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
2156 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
2157 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
2158 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
2159 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
2160 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
2161 [Steve Henson]
2162
2163 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
2164 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
2165 necessary function names.
2166 [Steve Henson]
2167
2168 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
2169 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
2170 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
2171 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
2172 [Bodo Moeller]
2173
2174 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
2175 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
2176 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
2177 [Steve Henson]
2178
2179 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
2180 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
2181 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
2182 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
2183 such programs?)
2184 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
2185 need locks.
2186 [Bodo Moeller]
2187
2188 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
2189 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
2190 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
2191 [Bodo Moeller]
2192
2193 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
2194 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
2195 appropriate.
2196 [Bodo Moeller]
2197
2198 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
2199 for the encoded length.
2200 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
2201
2202 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
2203 [Steve Henson]
2204
2205 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
2206 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
2207 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
2208 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
2209 [Steve Henson]
2210
2211 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
2212 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
2213 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2214
2215 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
2216 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
2217 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
2218 unusual formatting.
2219 [Steve Henson]
2220
2221 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
2222 to use the new extension code.
2223 [Steve Henson]
2224
2225 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
2226 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
2227 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
2228 constant.
2229 [Steve Henson]
2230
2231 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
2232 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
2233 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
2234 [Bodo Moeller]
2235
2236 #if 0
2237 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
2238 [Ben Laurie]
2239 #else
2240 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
2241 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
2242 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
2243 #endif
2244
2245 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
2246 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
2247 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
2248 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
2249 [Ben Laurie]
2250
2251 *) DES library cleanups.
2252 [Ulf Möller]
2253
2254 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
2255 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
2256 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
2257 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
2258 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
2259 of v2.0.
2260 [Steve Henson]
2261
2262 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
2263 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
2264 [Bodo Moeller]
2265
2266 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
2267 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
2268 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
2269 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
2270 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
2271 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
2272 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
2273 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
2274 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
2275 [Steve Henson]
2276
2277 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
2278 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
2279 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
2280 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
2281 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
2282 value doesn't matter.
2283 [Steve Henson]
2284
2285 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
2286 support mutable.
2287 [Ben Laurie]
2288
2289 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
2290 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
2291 "linux-sparc" configuration.
2292 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
2293
2294 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
2295 [Ulf Möller]
2296
2297 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
2298 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
2299 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
2300
2301 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
2302 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
2303
2304 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
2305 [Ben Laurie]
2306
2307 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
2308 [Ben Laurie]
2309
2310 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
2311 [Ben Laurie]
2312
2313 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
2314 [Bodo Moeller]
2315
2316
2317 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
2318
2319 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
2320
2321 *) Updated some demos.
2322 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
2323
2324 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
2325 [Wu Zhigang]
2326
2327 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
2328 [Steve Henson]
2329
2330 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
2331 [Steve Henson]
2332
2333 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
2334 instead of using a fixed path.
2335 [Bodo Moeller]
2336
2337 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
2338 [Andy Polyakov]
2339
2340 *) Improvements for VMS support.
2341 [Richard Levitte]
2342
2343
2344 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
2345
2346 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
2347 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
2348 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
2349
2350 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
2351 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
2352 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
2353 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
2354 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
2355 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
2356 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
2357 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
2358 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
2359 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
2360 [Steve Henson]
2361
2362 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
2363 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
2364 [Steve Henson]
2365
2366 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
2367 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
2368 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
2369 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
2370 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
2371
2372 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
2373 [Bodo Moeller]
2374
2375 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
2376 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
2377 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
2378 [Steve Henson]
2379
2380 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
2381 [Ben Laurie]
2382
2383 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
2384 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
2385 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
2386 key elements as negative integers.
2387 [Steve Henson]
2388
2389 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
2390 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
2391
2392 *) VMS support.
2393 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
2394
2395 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
2396 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
2397 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
2398 [Steve Henson]
2399
2400 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
2401 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
2402 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
2403 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
2404 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
2405 [Bodo Moeller]
2406
2407 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
2408 [Ulf Möller]
2409
2410 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
2411 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
2412 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
2413 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2414
2415 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
2416 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
2417 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
2418
2419 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
2420 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
2421 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
2422 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
2423 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
2424 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
2425 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
2426 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
2427 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
2428
2429 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
2430 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
2431 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
2432 does not influence s as it used to.
2433
2434 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
2435 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
2436 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
2437 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
2438 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
2439 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
2440 [Bodo Moeller]
2441
2442 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
2443 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
2444 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
2445 key type.
2446 [Steve Henson]
2447
2448 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
2449 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
2450 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
2451 and 'x509').
2452 [Steve Henson]
2453
2454 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
2455 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
2456 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
2457 extension option.
2458 [Steve Henson]
2459
2460 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
2461 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
2462 [Ben Laurie]
2463
2464 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
2465 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
2466
2467 *) Support Mingw32.
2468 [Ulf Möller]
2469
2470 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
2471 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
2472
2473 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
2474 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
2475
2476 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
2477 [Ulf Möller]
2478
2479 *) Update HPUX configuration.
2480 [Anonymous]
2481
2482 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
2483 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2484
2485 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
2486 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
2487 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
2488 DER-encoded.)
2489 [Bodo Moeller]
2490
2491 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
2492 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
2493 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
2494 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
2495 now it really counts the depth.
2496 [Bodo Moeller]
2497
2498 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
2499 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
2500 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
2501 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
2502 didn't match the private key).
2503
2504 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
2505 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
2506 connection using the SSL_CTX).
2507 [Bodo Moeller]
2508
2509 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
2510 [Ulf Möller]
2511
2512 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
2513 David Harris.
2514 [Bodo Moeller]
2515
2516 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
2517 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
2518 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
2519 [Bodo Moeller]
2520
2521 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
2522 [Bodo Moeller]
2523
2524 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
2525 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
2526 such as /usr/local/bin.
2527 [Bodo Moeller]
2528
2529 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
2530 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
2531
2532 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
2533 [Ulf Möller]
2534
2535 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
2536 extension adding in x509 utility.
2537 [Steve Henson]
2538
2539 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
2540 [Ulf Möller]
2541
2542 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
2543 prototypes.
2544 [Steve Henson]
2545
2546 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
2547 [Ulf Möller]
2548
2549 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
2550 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
2551 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
2552 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
2553 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
2554 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
2555 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
2556 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
2557 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
2558 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
2559 [Steve Henson]
2560
2561 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
2562 [Bodo Moeller]
2563
2564 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
2565 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
2566 [Bodo Moeller]
2567
2568 *) Fix some race conditions.
2569 [Bodo Moeller]
2570
2571 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
2572 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
2573 [Steve Henson]
2574
2575 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
2576 [Ulf Möller]
2577
2578 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
2579 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
2580 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
2581 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
2582
2583 *) Fix lots of warnings.
2584 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
2585
2586 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
2587 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
2588 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
2589
2590 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
2591 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
2592
2593 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
2594 [Ulf Möller]
2595
2596 *) Fix typos in error codes.
2597 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
2598
2599 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
2600 [Ulf Möller]
2601
2602 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
2603 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
2604
2605 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
2606 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
2607 [Steve Henson]
2608
2609 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
2610 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
2611 [Ben Laurie]
2612
2613 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
2614 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
2615 [Steve Henson]
2616
2617 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
2618 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
2619 [Steve Henson]
2620
2621 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
2622 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
2623 [Steve Henson]
2624
2625 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
2626 support typesafe stack.
2627 [Steve Henson]
2628
2629 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
2630 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
2631
2632 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
2633 old X509V3 handling code.
2634 [Steve Henson]
2635
2636 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
2637 [Ulf Möller]
2638
2639 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
2640 [Bodo Moeller]
2641
2642 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
2643 [Ben Laurie]
2644
2645 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
2646 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
2647
2648 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
2649 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
2650 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
2651 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
2652 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
2653 [Ben Laurie]
2654
2655 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
2656 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
2657 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
2658 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
2659 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
2660
2661 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
2662 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
2663 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
2664 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2665
2666 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
2667 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
2668 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
2669 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2670
2671 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
2672 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
2673 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
2674 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
2675 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
2676 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
2677 [Bodo Moeller]
2678
2679 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
2680 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
2681 [Bodo Moeller]
2682
2683 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
2684 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
2685 [Ulf Möller]
2686
2687 *) Tweaks to Configure
2688 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
2689
2690 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
2691 yet...
2692 [Steve Henson]
2693
2694 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
2695 [Ulf Möller]
2696
2697 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
2698 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
2699 [Ulf Möller]
2700
2701 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
2702 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
2703 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
2704 [Bodo Moeller]
2705
2706 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
2707 [Bodo Moeller]
2708
2709 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
2710 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
2711 [Steve Henson]
2712
2713 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
2714 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
2715 to library startup routines.
2716 [Steve Henson]
2717
2718 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
2719 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
2720 codes along the way.
2721 [Steve Henson]
2722
2723 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
2724 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
2725 objects to objects.h
2726 [Steve Henson]
2727
2728 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
2729 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
2730 [Steve Henson]
2731
2732 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
2733 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
2734
2735 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
2736 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
2737 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
2738
2739 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
2740 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
2741 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
2742
2743 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
2744 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
2745 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
2746
2747
2748 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
2749
2750 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
2751 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
2752 [Ben Laurie]
2753
2754 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
2755 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
2756 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
2757 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
2758 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
2759
2760 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
2761 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
2762 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
2763 document.
2764 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
2765
2766 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
2767 Malloc, Free.
2768 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
2769
2770 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
2771 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
2772
2773 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
2774 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
2775 if someone would make that last step automatic.
2776 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
2777
2778 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
2779 [Ben Laurie]
2780
2781 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
2782 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
2783 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
2784 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
2785 [Steve Henson]
2786
2787 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
2788 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
2789 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
2790 [Steve Henson]
2791
2792 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
2793 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
2794 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
2795 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
2796 installed as `perl').
2797 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
2798
2799 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
2800 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
2801
2802 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
2803 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
2804 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
2805 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
2806 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
2807 [Steve Henson]
2808
2809 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
2810 [Ben Laurie]
2811
2812 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
2813 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
2814 is horrible: I feel ill....
2815 [Steve Henson]
2816
2817 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
2818 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
2819 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
2820 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
2821 [Steve Henson]
2822
2823 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
2824 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2825
2826 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
2827 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
2828 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
2829 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2830
2831 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
2832 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
2833 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
2834 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
2835 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
2836 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
2837 openssl_bio.xs.
2838 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2839
2840 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
2841 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
2842
2843 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
2844 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
2845
2846 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
2847 [Ben Laurie]
2848
2849 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
2850 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
2851 in CRLs.
2852 [Steve Henson]
2853
2854 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
2855 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
2856 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
2857 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
2858 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
2859 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
2860 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
2861 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
2862 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
2863 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
2864 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2865
2866 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
2867 [Ben Laurie]
2868
2869 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
2870 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
2871 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
2872 for linking it into DSOs.
2873 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2874
2875 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
2876 Fixed.
2877 [Ben Laurie]
2878
2879 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
2880 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
2881 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
2882 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
2883 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
2884 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2885
2886 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
2887 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
2888 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
2889 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
2890 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
2891 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
2892 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2893
2894 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
2895 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
2896 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
2897 encryption.
2898 [Ben Laurie]
2899
2900 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
2901 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
2902 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
2903 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
2904 [Steve Henson]
2905
2906 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
2907 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
2908 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
2909 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
2910 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
2911 field as blank.
2912 [Steve Henson]
2913
2914 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
2915 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
2916 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
2917 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
2918 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2919
2920 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
2921 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
2922 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
2923
2924 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
2925 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
2926
2927 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
2928 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
2929 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
2930 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
2931 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
2932 [Steve Henson]
2933
2934 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
2935 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
2936 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
2937 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
2938 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
2939 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
2940 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
2941 [Ben Laurie]
2942
2943 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
2944 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
2945 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
2946 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
2947 [Ben Laurie]
2948
2949 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
2950 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
2951
2952 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
2953 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
2954 [Steve Henson]
2955
2956 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
2957 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
2958 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
2959 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
2960 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
2961 (e.g. s_server).
2962 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
2963 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
2964 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
2965 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
2966 no way to reconfigure them.
2967 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
2968 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
2969 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
2970 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
2971 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
2972 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2973
2974 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
2975 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
2976 recognized by the users.
2977 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2978
2979 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
2980 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
2981 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
2982 already masked variable.
2983 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
2984
2985 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
2986 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
2987
2988 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
2989 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
2990 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
2991 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
2992
2993 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
2994 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
2995 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2996
2997 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
2998 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
2999 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
3000 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
3001 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
3002 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
3003 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
3004 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
3005 now, too.
3006 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3007
3008 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
3009 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
3010 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3011
3012 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
3013 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
3014 config file.
3015 [Steve Henson]
3016
3017 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
3018 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
3019
3020 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
3021 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
3022 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
3023 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
3024 [Ben Laurie]
3025
3026 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
3027 [Steve Henson]
3028
3029 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
3030 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3031
3032 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
3033 [Ben Laurie]
3034
3035 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
3036 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
3037 [Steve Henson]
3038
3039 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
3040 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
3041 [Steve Henson]
3042
3043 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
3044 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
3045 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
3046 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
3047 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
3048 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
3049 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
3050 Ben Laurie]
3051
3052 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
3053 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3054
3055 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
3056 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
3057 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
3058 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
3059 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3060
3061 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
3062 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
3063 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
3064 [Steve Henson]
3065
3066 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
3067 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
3068 an example.
3069 [Steve Henson]
3070
3071 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
3072 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
3073 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
3074
3075 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
3076 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
3077 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
3078 build instructions.
3079 [Steve Henson]
3080
3081 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
3082 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
3083 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
3084 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
3085 [Steve Henson]
3086
3087 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
3088 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
3089 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
3090 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
3091 [Ben Laurie]
3092
3093 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
3094 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
3095 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
3096 so it wasn't spotted.
3097 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
3098
3099 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
3100 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
3101 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
3102 vectors if you have them.
3103 [Ben Laurie]
3104
3105 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
3106 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
3107 [Ben Laurie]
3108
3109 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
3110 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
3111 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
3112 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
3113 If you do a:
3114 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
3115 it will update them.
3116 [Steve Henson]
3117
3118 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
3119 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
3120 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
3121 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
3122 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
3123 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
3124 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
3125 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3126
3127 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
3128 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
3129 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
3130 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
3131 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
3132 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
3133 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
3134 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
3135 the crypto/md/ stuff).
3136 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3137
3138 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
3139 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
3140 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
3141 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
3142 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
3143 [Steve Henson]
3144
3145 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
3146 INTEGER code.
3147 [Steve Henson]
3148
3149 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
3150 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3151
3152 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
3153 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
3154
3155 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
3156 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
3157 [Ben Laurie]
3158
3159 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
3160 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
3161
3162 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
3163 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
3164
3165 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
3166 [Steve Henson]
3167
3168 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
3169 few typos.
3170 [Steve Henson]
3171
3172 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
3173 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
3174 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
3175 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3176
3177 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
3178 [Steve Henson]
3179
3180 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
3181 [Steve Henson]
3182
3183 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
3184 [Steve Henson]
3185
3186 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
3187 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
3188 [Steve Henson]
3189
3190 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
3191 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
3192 CA extensions.
3193 [Steve Henson]
3194
3195 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
3196 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
3197 [Steve Henson]
3198
3199 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
3200 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
3201 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
3202 [Steve Henson]
3203
3204 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
3205 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
3206 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
3207 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
3208 properly to be processed.
3209 [Steve Henson]
3210
3211 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
3212 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
3213 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
3214 [Ben Laurie]
3215
3216 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
3217 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
3218
3219 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
3220 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
3221 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
3222 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
3223 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
3224 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
3225 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
3226 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
3227 or delete all the .err files.
3228 [Steve Henson]
3229
3230 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
3231 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
3232 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
3233 to regenerate it if needed.
3234 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
3235 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
3236
3237 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
3238 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3239
3240 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
3241 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
3242 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
3243 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
3244 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
3245 [Steve Henson]
3246
3247 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
3248 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3249
3250 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
3251 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
3252
3253 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
3254 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
3255 error, but didn't set one).
3256 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
3257
3258 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
3259 [Ben Laurie]
3260
3261 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
3262 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
3263 [Steve Henson]
3264
3265 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
3266 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
3267
3268 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
3269 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
3270 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
3271 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
3272 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
3273 OID is not part of the table.
3274 [Steve Henson]
3275
3276 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
3277 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
3278 [Ben Laurie]
3279
3280 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
3281 [Ben Laurie]
3282
3283 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
3284 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
3285 was "1234").
3286 [Steve Henson]
3287
3288 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
3289 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
3290
3291 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
3292 NULL pointers.
3293 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
3294
3295 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
3296 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
3297
3298 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
3299 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
3300
3301 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
3302 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
3303
3304 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
3305 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
3306 [Ben Laurie]
3307
3308 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
3309 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
3310 [Steve Henson]
3311
3312 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
3313 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3314
3315 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
3316 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3317
3318 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
3319 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3320
3321 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
3322 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3323
3324 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
3325 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
3326 unused in the certificate verification process.
3327 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3328
3329 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
3330 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
3331 [Steve Henson]
3332
3333 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
3334 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
3335 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
3336
3337 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
3338 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
3339 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
3340 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
3341 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
3342
3343 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
3344 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
3345 [Steve Henson]
3346
3347 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
3348 [Steve Henson]
3349
3350 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
3351 [Paul Sutton]
3352
3353 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
3354 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
3355
3356 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
3357 [Ben Laurie]
3358
3359 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
3360 [Ben Laurie]
3361
3362 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
3363 [Ben Laurie]
3364
3365 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
3366 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
3367 other error libraries.
3368 [Steve Henson]
3369
3370 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
3371 [Steve Henson]
3372
3373 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
3374 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
3375 be read in.
3376 [Steve Henson]
3377
3378 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
3379 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
3380 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
3381 the new set of documenation files.
3382 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3383
3384 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
3385 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
3386 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
3387 number of arguments.
3388 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
3389
3390 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
3391 [Ben Laurie]
3392
3393 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
3394 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
3395 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3396
3397 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
3398 [Ben Laurie]
3399
3400 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
3401 nextstep
3402 ncr-scde
3403 unixware-2.0
