4
5 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
8 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
9 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
10 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
11 [Matt Caswell]
12
13 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
14 using the algorithm defined in
15 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
16 [Richard Levitte]
17
18 Changes between 1.1.0b and 1.1.0c [xx XXX xxxx]
19
20 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
21 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
22 [Richard Levitte]
23
24 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
25
26 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
27
28 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
29 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
30 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
31 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
32 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
33 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
34
35 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
36
37 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.
38 (CVE-2016-6309)
39 [Matt Caswell]
40
41 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
42
43 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
44
45 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
46 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
47 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
48 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
49 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
50 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
51 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
52
53 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
54 (CVE-2016-6304)
55 [Matt Caswell]
56
57 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
58
59 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
60 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
61 Denial Of Service attack.
62
63 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
64 (CVE-2016-6305)
65 [Matt Caswell]
66
67 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
68 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
69
70 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
71 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
72 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
73 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
74 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
75 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
76 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
77 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
78 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
79 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
80 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
81 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed conneciton in a timely
82 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
83 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
84 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
85
86 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
87 that the connection fails
88 or
89 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
90 very little free memory
91 or
92 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
93 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
94 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
95 memory to service the multiple requests.
96
97 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
98 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
99 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
100 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
101 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
102
103 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
104 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
105 [Matt Caswell]
106
107 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
108 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
109 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
110 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
111 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
112 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
113 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
114 [Andy Polyakov]
115
116 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
117
118 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
119 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
120 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
121 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
122 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
123 non-ASCII password.
124 [Andy Polyakov]
125
126 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
127 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
128 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
129 [Rich Salz]
130
131 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
132 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
133 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
134 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
135 [Matt Caswell]
136
137 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
138 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
139 success.
140 [Matt Caswell]
141
142 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
143 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
144 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
145 no-ops and deprecated.
146 [Matt Caswell]
147
148 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
149 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
150 were also closed.
151 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
152
153 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
154 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
155 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
156 [Rich Salz]
157
158 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
159 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
160 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
161 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
162 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
163 and the validity of object reference counter.
164 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
165
166 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
167 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
168 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
169 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
170 [Richard Levitte]
171
172 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
173 [Richard Levitte]
174
175 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
176 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
177 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
178 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
179
180 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
181
182 [Richard Levitte]
183
184 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
185 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
186 [Steve Henson]
187
188 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
189 [Andy Polyakov]
190
191 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
192 [Rich Salz]
193
194 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
195 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
196 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
197 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
198 name and is used as is.
199 [Richard Levitte]
200
201 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
202 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
203 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
204 [Rich Salz]
205
206 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
207 the "no-shared" Configure option.
208 [Matt Caswell]
209
210 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
211 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
212 algorithms.
213 [Matt Caswell]
214
215 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
216 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
217 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
218 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
219 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
220 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
221 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
222 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
223 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
224 [Matt Caswell]
225
226 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
227 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
228 enabled with '--debug' builds.
229 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
230
231 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
232 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
233 these have been added.
234 [Matt Caswell]
235
236 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
237 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
238 functions for managing these have been added.
239 [Richard Levitte]
240
241 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
242 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
243 these have been added.
244 [Matt Caswell]
245
246 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
247 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
248 have been added.
249 [Matt Caswell]
250
251 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
252 [Matt Caswell]
253
254 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
255 [Richard Levitte]
256
257 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
258 it is always safe to #include a header now.
259 [Rich Salz]
260
261 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
262 [Richard Levitte]
263
264 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
265 [Rich Salz]
266
267 *) Add support for HKDF.
268 [Alessandro Ghedini]
269
270 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
271 [Bill Cox]
272
273 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
274 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
275 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
276 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
277 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
278 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
279 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
280 [Matt Caswell]
281
282 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
283 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
284 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
285 [Catriona Lucey]
286
287 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
288 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
289 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
290 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
291 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
292 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
293 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
294
295 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
296 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
297 [Todd Short]
298
299 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
300 [Todd Short]
301
302 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
303 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
304 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
305 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
306 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
307 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
308 default cipherlist.
309 [Emilia Käsper]
310
311 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
312 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
313 [Rich Salz]
314
315 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
316 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
317 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
318 [Matt Caswell]
319
320 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
321 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
322 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
323 implemented by other servers.
324 [Emilia Käsper]
325
326 *) Add X25519 support.
327 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
328 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
329 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The coresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
330 key generation and key derivation.
331
332 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
333 X25519(29).
334 [Steve Henson]
335
336 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
337 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
338 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
339 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
340 seed, even if the seed is configured.
341
342 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
343 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
344 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
345 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
346 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
347 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
348 that of a valid user.
349 [Emilia Käsper]
350
351 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
352 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
353 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
354 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
355
356 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
357 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
358
359 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
360 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
361 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
362 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
363
364 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
365 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
366 irrelevant.
367 [Richard Levitte]
368
369 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
370 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
371 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
372 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
373 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
374 of how OpenSSL was configured.
375
376 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
377 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
378 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
379 [Richard Levitte]
380
381 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
382 [Rich Salz]
383
384 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
385 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
386 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
387 removed.
388 [Richard Levitte]
389
390 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
391 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
392 old #define's might need to be updated.
393 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
394
395 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
396 [Rich Salz]
397
398 *) New "unified" build system
399
400 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
401 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
402
403 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
404 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
405 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
406
407 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
408 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
409 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
410 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
411 descrip.mms.tmpl.
412
413 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
414 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
415 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
416 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
417 libraries" in INSTALL.
418
419 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
420 [Richard Levitte]
421
422 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
423 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
424 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
425 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
426 [Matt Caswell]
427
428 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
429 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
430
431 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
432 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
433 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
434 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
435 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
436 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
437 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
438 have been adapted accordingly.
439 [Richard Levitte]
440
441 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
442 the leading 0-byte.
443 [Emilia Käsper]
444
445 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
446 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
447 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
448 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
449 [Emilia Käsper]
450
451 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
452 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
453 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
454 'unsigned char*'.
455 [Emilia Käsper]
456
457 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
458 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
459 [Emilia Käsper]
460
461 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
462 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
463 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
464 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
465 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
466 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
467 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
468
469 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
470 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
471
472 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
473 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
474 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
475 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
476 Text::Template.
477
478 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
479 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
480 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
481 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
482 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
483 %target).
484 [Richard Levitte]
485
486 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
487 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
488 straightforward and less interdependent.
489
490 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
491 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
492 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
493
494 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
495 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
496 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
497 installed.
498 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
499 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
500 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
501 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
502
503 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
504 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
505 [Richard Levitte]
506
507 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
508 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
509 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
510 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
511 is present).
512 [Matt Caswell]
513
514 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
515 configuring.
516 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
517
518 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
519 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
520 before trying to build now.*
521 [Rich Salz]
522
523 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
524 has changed.
525 [Rich Salz]
526
527 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
528
529 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
530 the application's responsibility. The application provides
531 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
532 used to authenticate the peer.
533
534 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
535 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
536 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
537 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
538 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
539 [Viktor Dukhovni]
540
541 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
542 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
543 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
544 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
545 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
546 or the 1.1.0 releases.
547
548 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
549 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
550 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
551 support for the deprecated features from the library and
552 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
553 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
554 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
555 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
556 version.
557
558 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
559 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
560 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
561 compile with later releases.
562
563 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
564 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
565 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
566 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
567 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
568 [Viktor Dukhovni]
569
570 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
571 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
572 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
573 MaxProtcol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
574 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
575 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
576 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
577 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
578 [Kurt Roeckx]
579
580 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
581 [Andy Polyakov]
582
583 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
584 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
585 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
586 ECDSA_SIG format.
587
588 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
589 include the ec.h header file instead.
590 [Steve Henson]
591
592 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
593 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
594 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
595 [Kurt Roeckx]
596
597 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
598 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
599 were added:
600
601 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
602 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
603
604 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
605 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
606 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
607
608 Additional changes:
609 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
610 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
611 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
612 an already created structure.
613 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
614 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
615 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
616 for deprecated builds.
617 [Richard Levitte]
618
619 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
620 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
621 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
622 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
623 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
624 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
625 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
626 [Matt Caswell]
627
628 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
629 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
630 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
631 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
632 [Kurt Roeckx]
633
634 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
635 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
636 [Kurt Roeckx]
637
638 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
639 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
640 [Kurt Roeckx]
641
642 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
643 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
644 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
645 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
646 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
647 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
648 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
649 also been removed.
650 [Matt Caswell]
651
652 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
653 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
654 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
655 [Rich Salz]
656
657 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
658 [Rich Salz]
659
660 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
661 sureware and ubsec.
662 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
663
664 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
665
666 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
667 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
668
669 FOO *x;
670
671 it must be:
672
673 FOO x;
674
675 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
676 set a mandatory field to NULL.
677
678 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
679 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
680 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
681 SEQUENCE OF.
682 [Steve Henson]
683
684 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
685 [Emilia Käsper]
686
687 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
688 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
689 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
690 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
691 [Matt Caswell]
692
693 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
694 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
695 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
696 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
697 [Emilia Käsper]
698
699 *) Fix no-stdio build.
700 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
701 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
702
703 *) New testing framework
704 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
705 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
706 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
707 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
708 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
709 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
710
711 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
712
713 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
714 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
715
716 [Richard Levitte]
717
718 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
719 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
720 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
721 and others were changed. All are now documented.
722 [Rich Salz]
723
724 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
725 return an error
726 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
727
728 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
729 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
730
731 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
732 original RSA_PSK patch.
733 [Steve Henson]
734
735 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
736 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
737 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
738 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
739 [Matt Caswell]
740
741 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
742 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
743 [Richard Levitte]
744
745 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
746 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
747 hasn't been working properly for a while.
748 [Emilia Käsper]
749
750 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
751 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
752 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
753 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
754 transferred.
755 [Matt Caswell]
756
757 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
758 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
759 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
760 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
761 [Matt Caswell]
762
763 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
764 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
765 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
766 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
767 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
768 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
769 [Matt Caswell]
770
771 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
772 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
773 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
774 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
775 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
776 header file has been removed.
777 [Matt Caswell]
778
779 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
780 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
781 [Matt Caswell]
782
783 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
784 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
785 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
786
787 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
788 Added a test.
789 [Rich Salz]
790
791 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
792 [Rich Salz]
793
794 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
795 sha256
796 [Rich Salz]
797
798 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
799 [Matt Caswell]
800
801 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
802 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
803 initial patch which was a great help during development.
804 [Steve Henson]
805
806 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
807 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
808 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
809 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
810 [Matt Caswell]
811
812 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
813 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
814 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
815 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
816 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
817 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
818 [Matt Caswell]
819
820 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
821 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
822 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
823 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
824 [Matt Caswell]
825
826 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
827 compatible client hello.
828 [Kurt Roeckx]
829
830 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
831 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
832 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
833
834 *) CA.sh has been removmed; use CA.pl instead.
835 [Rich Salz]
836
837 *) Removed old DES API.
838 [Rich Salz]
839
840 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
841 Sony NEWS4
842 BEOS and BEOS_R5
843 NeXT
844 SUNOS
845 MPE/iX
846 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
847 DGUX
848 NCR
849 Tandem
850 Cray
851 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
852 [Rich Salz]
853
854 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
855 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
856 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
857 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
858 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
859 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
860 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
861 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
862 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
863 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
864 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
865 [Rich Salz]
866
867 *) Cleaned up dead code
868 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
869 [Rich Salz]
870
871 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
872 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
873 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
874 [Rich Salz]
875
876 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
877 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
878 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
879 [Rich Salz]
880
881 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
882 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
883 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
884
885 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
886 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
887 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
888
889 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
890 compilation flags.
891 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
892
893 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
894 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
895 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
896
897 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
898 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
899
900 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
901 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
902 server.
903
904 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
905 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
906 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
907 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
908
909 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
910 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
911 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
912 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
913
914 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
915 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
916 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
917
918 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
919 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
920 [Steve Henson]
921
922 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
923
924 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
925 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
926
927 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
928 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
929
930 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
931 effect.
932
933 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
934
935 [Steve Henson]
936
937 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
938 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
939 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
940 algorithms and include tests cases.
941 [Steve Henson]
942
943 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
944 enveloped data.
945 [Steve Henson]
946
947 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
948 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
949 [Steve Henson]
950
951 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
952 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
953
954 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
955 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
956 [Steve Henson]
957
958 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
959 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
960 failures.
961 [Steve Henson]
962
963 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
964 sign or verify all in one operation.
965 [Steve Henson]
966
967 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
968 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
969 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
970 [Steve Henson]
971
972 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
973 [Steve Henson]
974
975 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
976 [Steve Henson]
977
978 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
979 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
980 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
981 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
982 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
983 [Steve Henson]
984
985 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
986 based on NID.
987 [Steve Henson]
988
989 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
990 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
991 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
992 [Steve Henson]
993
994 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
995 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
996
997 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
998 POST to handle HMAC cases.
999 [Steve Henson]
1000
1001 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
1002 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
1003 [Steve Henson]
1004
1005 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
1006 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
1007 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1008 [Steve Henson]
1009
1010 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
1011 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
1012 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
1013 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
1014 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
1015 requested amount of entropy.
1016 [Steve Henson]
1017
1018 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
1019 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
1020 [Steve Henson]
1021
1022 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
1023 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
1024 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
1025 support.
1026 [Steve Henson]
1027
1028 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
1029 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
1030 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
1031 [Steve Henson]
1032
1033 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
1034 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
1035 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
1036 will never use XTS mode.
1037 [Steve Henson]
1038
1039 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
1040 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
1041 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
1042 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
1043 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
1044 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
1045 [Steve Henson]
1046
1047 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
1048 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
1049 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
1050 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
1051 [Steve Henson]
1052
1053 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
1054 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
1055 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
1056 [Steve Henson]
1057
1058 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
1059 [Steve Henson]
1060
1061 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
1062 [Steve Henson]
1063
1064 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
1065 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
1066 [Steve Henson]
1067
1068 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
1069 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
1070 [Steve Henson]
1071
1072 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
1073 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
1074 [Steve Henson]
1075
1076 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
1077 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
1078 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
1079 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
1080 and rename any affected symbols.
1081 [Steve Henson]
1082
1083 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
1084 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
1085 [Steve Henson]
1086
1087 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
1088 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
1089 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
1090 [Steve Henson]
1091
1092 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1093 [Steve Henson]
1094
1095 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
1096 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
1097 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
1098 [Steve Henson]
1099
1100 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
1101 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
1102 [Steve Henson]
1103
1104 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
1105 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
1106 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
1107 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
1108 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
1109 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
1110 set before the key.
1111 [Steve Henson]
1112
1113 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
1114 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
1115 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
1116 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
1117 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
1118 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
1119 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
1120 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
1121 [Steve Henson]
1122
1123 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
1124 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
1125 [Steve Henson]
1126
1127 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
1128
1129 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
1130 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
1131
1132 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
1133 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
1134 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
1135 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
1136 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
1137 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
1138
1139 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
1140 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
1141 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
1142 security.
1143 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1144
1145 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
1146 parameters by name.
1147 [Steve Henson]
1148
1149 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
1150 Add CMAC pkey methods.
1151 [Steve Henson]
1152
1153 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
1154 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
1155 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
1156 [Steve Henson]
1157
1158 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
1159 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
1160 multi-process servers.
1161 [Steve Henson]
1162
1163 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
1164 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
1165 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
1166 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
1167 RAND_METHOD structure.
1168 [Steve Henson]
1169
1170 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
1171 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
1172 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
1173 whose return value is often ignored.
1174 [Steve Henson]
1175
1176 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
1177 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
1178 validated when establishing a connection.

1181 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
1182
1183 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
1184
1185 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
1186 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
1187 AES-NI.
1188
1189 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
1190 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
1191 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
1192 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
1193 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
1194 bytes.
1195
1196 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
1197 (CVE-2016-2107)
1198 [Kurt Roeckx]
1199
1200 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
1201
1202 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
1203 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
1204 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
1205 corruption.
1206
1207 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
1208 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
1209 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
1210 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
1211 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
1212 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
1213
1214 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
1215 (CVE-2016-2105)
1216 [Matt Caswell]
1217
1218 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
1219
1220 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
1221 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
1222 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
1223 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
1224 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
1225 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
1226 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
1227 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
1228 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
1229 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
1230 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
1231 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
1232 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
1233 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
1234 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
1235 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
1236
1237 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
1238 (CVE-2016-2106)
1239 [Matt Caswell]
1240
1241 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
1242
1243 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
1244 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
1245 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
1246
1247 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
1248 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
1249 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
1250 applications are not affected.
1251
1252 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
1253 (CVE-2016-2109)
1254 [Stephen Henson]
1255
1256 *) EBCDIC overread
1257
1258 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
1259 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
1260 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
1261
1262 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
1263 (CVE-2016-2176)
1264 [Matt Caswell]
1265
1266 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1267 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1268 [Todd Short]
1269
1270 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
1271 default.
1272 [Kurt Roeckx]
1273
1274 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
1275 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
1276 [Kurt Roeckx]
1277
1278 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
1279
1280 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
1281 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
1282 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
1283 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1284
1285 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
1286 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
1287 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
1288 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
1289 will need to explicitly call either of:
1290
1291 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
1292 or
1293 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
1294
1295 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
1296 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
1297 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
1298 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
1299 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
1300 (CVE-2016-0800)
1301 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1302
1303 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
1304
1305 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
1306 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
1307 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
1308 considered rare.
1309
1310 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
1311 libFuzzer.
1312 (CVE-2016-0705)
1313 [Stephen Henson]
1314
1315 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
1316
1317 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
1318
1319 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1320 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
1321 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
1322 is configured.
1323
1324 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1325 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1326 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1327 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1328 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1329 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1330 that of a valid user.
1331 (CVE-2016-0798)
1332 [Emilia Käsper]
1333
1334 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
1335
1336 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
1337 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
1338 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
1339 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
1340 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
1341 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
1342 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
1343 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
1344 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
1345 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
1346 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
1347
1348 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
1349 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
1350 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
1351 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
1352 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
1353
1354 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
1355 (CVE-2016-0797)
1356 [Matt Caswell]
1357
1358 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
1359
1360 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
1361 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
1362 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
1363
1364 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
1365 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
1366 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
1367 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
1368 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
1369 also occur.
1370
1371 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
1372 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
1373 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
1374 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
1375 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
1376 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
1377 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
1378 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
1379 as command line arguments.
1380
1381 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
1382 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
1383 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
1384
1385 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
1386 (CVE-2016-0799)
1387 [Matt Caswell]
1388
1389 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
1390
1391 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
1392 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
1393 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
1394 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
1395 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
1396
1397 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
1398 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
1399 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
1400 http://cachebleed.info.

1404 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
1405 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
1406 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
1407 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
1408 [Emilia Käsper]
1409
1410 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
1411 *) DH small subgroups
1412
1413 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
1414 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
1415 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
1416 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
1417 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
1418 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
1419 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
1420 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
1421 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
1422 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
1423
1424 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
1425 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
1426 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
1427 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
1428 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
1429
1430 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
1431 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
1432 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
1433 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
1434
1435 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
1436 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
1437

1441
1442 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
1443
1444 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
1445 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
1446 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
1447 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

1456 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
1457
1458 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
1459 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
1460 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
1461 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
1462 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
1463 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
1464 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
1465 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
1466 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
1467 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
1468 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
1469 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

1476
1477 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
1478 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
1479 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
1480 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
1481 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
1482 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
1483 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client

1512 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
1513
1514 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
1515
1516 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
1517 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
1518 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
1519 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
1520 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
1521 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
1522
1523 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
1524 (Google/BoringSSL).
1525 [Matt Caswell]
1526
1527 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
1528
1529 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
1530 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
1531 restored.
1532 [Matt Caswell]
1533
1534 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
1535
1536 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
1537
1538 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
1539 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
1540 field.
1541
1542 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
1543 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
1544 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
1545 client authentication enabled.
1546
1547 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
1548 (CVE-2015-1788)
1549 [Andy Polyakov]
1550
1551 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
1552
1553 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
1554 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
1555 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
1556 time string.
1557
1558 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
1559 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
1560 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
1561 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
1562 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
1563 callbacks.
1564
1565 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
1566 independently by Hanno Böck.
1567 (CVE-2015-1789)
1568 [Emilia Käsper]
1569
1570 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
1571
1572 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
1573 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
1574 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
1575
1576 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
1577 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
1578 servers are not affected.
1579
1580 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
1581 (CVE-2015-1790)
1582 [Emilia Käsper]
1583
1584 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
1585
1586 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
1587 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
1588 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
1589 the CMS code.
1590 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
1591 (CVE-2015-1792)
1592 [Stephen Henson]
1593
1594 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
1595
1596 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
1597 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
1598 a double free of the ticket data.
1599 (CVE-2015-1791)
1600 [Matt Caswell]
1601
1602 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
1603 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
1604 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
1605 [Emilia Kasper]
1606
1607 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
1608
1609 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
1610
1611 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
1612 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
1613 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
1614
1615 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
1616 University.
1617 (CVE-2015-0291)
1618 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
1619
1620 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
1621
1622 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
1623 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
1624 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
1625 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
1626 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
1627 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
1628 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
1629 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
1630
1631 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
1632 (CVE-2015-0290)
1633 [Matt Caswell]
1634
1635 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
1636
1637 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
1638 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
1639 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
1640 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
1641 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
1642 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
1643 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
1644 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
1645 server.
1646
1647 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
1648 (CVE-2015-0207)
1649 [Matt Caswell]
1650
1651 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
1652
1653 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
1654 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
1655 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
1656 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
1657 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
1658 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
1659 (CVE-2015-0286)
1660 [Stephen Henson]
1661
1662 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
1663
1664 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
1665 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
1666 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
1667 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
1668 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
1669 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
1670 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
1671
1672 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
1673 (CVE-2015-0208)
1674 [Stephen Henson]
1675
1676 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
1677
1678 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
1679 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
1680 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
1681
1682 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
1683 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
1684 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
1685 not affected.
1686 (CVE-2015-0287)
1687 [Stephen Henson]
1688
1689 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
1690
1691 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
1692 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
1693 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
1694
1695 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
1696 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
1697 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
1698
1699 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
1700 (CVE-2015-0289)
1701 [Emilia Käsper]
1702
1703 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
1704
1705 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
1706 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
1707 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
1708
1709 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
1710 (OpenSSL development team).
1711 (CVE-2015-0293)
1712 [Emilia Käsper]
1713
1714 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
1715
1716 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
1717 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
1718 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
1719 (CVE-2015-1787)
1720 [Matt Caswell]
1721
1722 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
1723
1724 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
1725 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
1726 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
1727 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
1728 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
1729 SSL_client_methodv23)
1730 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
1731 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
1732
1733 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
1734 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
1735 output may be predictable.
1736
1737 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
1738 succeed on an unpatched platform:
1739
1740 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
1741 (CVE-2015-0285)
1742 [Matt Caswell]
1743
1744 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
1745
1746 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
1747 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
1748 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
1749 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
1750 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
1751 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
1752
1753 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
1754 commit 517073cd4b.
1755 (CVE-2015-0209)
1756 [Matt Caswell]
1757
1758 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
1759
1760 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
1761 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
1762
1763 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
1764 (CVE-2015-0288)
1765 [Stephen Henson]
1766
1767 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
1768 [Kurt Roeckx]
1769
1770 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
1771
1772 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
1773 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
1774 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
1775 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
1776 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
1777 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
1778 [Andy Polyakov]
1779
1780 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
1781 (other platforms pending).
1782 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
1783
1784 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
1785 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
1786 [Rob Stradling]
1787
1788 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1789 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1790 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1791 [Bodo Moeller]
1792
1793 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
1794 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
1795 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
1796 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
1797 [Andy Polyakov]
1798
1799 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
1800 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
1801
1802 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
1803 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
1804 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
1805 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
1806 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
1807
1808 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
1809 [Andy Polyakov]
1810
1811 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
1812 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
1813 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
1814 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
1815
1816 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
1817 RSAZ.
1818 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
1819
1820 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
1821 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
1822 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
1823 for TLS encrypt.
1824
1825 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
1826 [Andy Polyakov]
1827
1828 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
1829 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
1830 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
1831 [Steve Henson]
1832
1833 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1834 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1835 [Steve Henson]
1836
1837 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1838 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1839 [Steve Henson]
1840
1841 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1842 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1843 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1844 algorithms and include tests cases.
1845 [Steve Henson]
1846
1847 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
1848 structure.
1849 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
1850
1851 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
1852 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
1853 [Steve Henson]
1854
1855 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
1856 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
1857 summary of the connection parameters.
1858 [Steve Henson]
1859
1860 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
1861 of connection parameters.
1862 [Steve Henson]
1863
1864 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
1865 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
1866
1867 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
1868 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
1869 [Steve Henson]
1870
1871 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
1872 [Steve Henson]
1873
1874 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
1875 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
1876 [Steve Henson]
1877
1878 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
1879 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
1880 [Steve Henson]
1881
1882 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
1883 certificates.
1884 [Steve Henson]
1885
1886 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
1887 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
1888 CRLs using the OCSP API.
1889 [Steve Henson]
1890
1891 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
1892 [Steve Henson]
1893
1894 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
1895 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
1896 [Steve Henson]
1897
1898 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
1899 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
1900 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
1901 tracing.
1902 [Steve Henson]
1903
1904 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
1905 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
1906 [Steve Henson]
1907
1908 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
1909 OID NID.
1910 [Steve Henson]
1911
1912 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
1913 client to OpenSSL.
1914 [Steve Henson]
1915
1916 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
1917 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
1918 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
1919 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
1920 [Steve Henson]
1921
1922 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
1923 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
1924 [Steve Henson]
1925
1926 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
1927 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
1928 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
1929 comparison.
1930 [Steve Henson]
1931
1932 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
1933 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
1934 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
1935 use the certificate.
1936 [Steve Henson]
1937
1938 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
1939 [Steve Henson]
1940
1941 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
1942 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
1943 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
1944 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
1945 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
1946 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
1947 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
1948
1949 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
1950 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
1951
1952 [Steve Henson]
1953
1954 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
1955 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
1956 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
1957 [Steve Henson]
1958
1959 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
1960 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
1961 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
1962 supported signature algorithms.
1963 [Steve Henson]
1964
1965 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
1966 [Steve Henson]
1967
1968 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
1969 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
1970 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
1971 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
1972 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
1973 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
1974 certificate and specify the whole chain.
1975 [Steve Henson]
1976
1977 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
1978 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
1979 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
1980 to have similar checks in it.
1981
1982 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
1983 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
1984 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
1985 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
1986 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
1987 [Steve Henson]
1988
1989 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
1990 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
1991 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
1992 shared signature algorithms.
1993 [Steve Henson]
1994
1995 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
1996 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
1997 to support them.
1998 [Steve Henson]
1999
2000 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
2001 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
2002 it couldn't be removed.
2003 [Steve Henson]
2004
2005 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
2006 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
2007 [Steve Henson]
2008
2009 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
2010 functions. Add manual page.
2011 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
2012
2013 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
2014 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
2015 a certificate.
2016 [Steve Henson]
2017
2018 *) Fix OCSP checking.
2019 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
2020
2021 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
2022 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
2023 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
2024 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
2025 utility) or reject.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
2028 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
2029 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
2030 [Steve Henson]
2031
2032 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
2033 platform support for Linux and Android.
2034 [Andy Polyakov]
2035
2036 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
2037 [Andy Polyakov]
2038
2039 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2040 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
2041 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
2042 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
2043 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
2044 [Steve Henson]
2045
2046 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
2047 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
2048 the new parameter format automatically.
2049 [Steve Henson]
2050
2051 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
2052 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
2053 [Steve Henson]
2054
2055 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
2056 [Steve Henson]
2057
2058 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
2059 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
2060 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
2061 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
2062 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
2063 [Steve Henson]
2064
2065 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
2066 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
2067 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
2068 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
2069 to set list of supported curves.
2070 [Steve Henson]
2071
2072 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
2073 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
2074 to print out received values.
2075 [Steve Henson]
2076
2077 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
2078 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
2079 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
2080 [Steve Henson]
2081
2082 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
2083 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
2084 [Steve Henson]
2085
2086 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
2087 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
2088 [Steve Henson]
2089
2090 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
2091 certificates.
2092 [Steve Henson]
2093
2094 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
2095 the certificate.
2096 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
2097 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
2098 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
2099
2100 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
2101
2102 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
2103 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
2104
2105 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
2106
2107 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
2108 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
2109 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
2110 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
2111 (CVE-2014-3571)
2112 [Steve Henson]
2113
2114 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
2115 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
2116 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
2117 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
2118 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
2119 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
2120 (CVE-2015-0206)
2121 [Matt Caswell]
2122
2123 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
2124 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
2125 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
2126 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
2127 (CVE-2014-3569)
2128 [Kurt Roeckx]
2129
2130 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
2131 ECDH ciphersuites.
2132
2133 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
2134 reporting this issue.
2135 (CVE-2014-3572)
2136 [Steve Henson]
2137
2138 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
2139 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
2140 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
2141 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
2142 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
2143 INRIA or reporting this issue.
2144 (CVE-2015-0204)
2145 [Steve Henson]
2146
2147 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
2148 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
2149 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
2150 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
2151 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
2152 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
2153 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
2154 this issue.
2155 (CVE-2015-0205)
2156 [Steve Henson]
2157
2158 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
2159 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
2160
2161 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
2162 and can vary with the CTX.
2163 [Adam Langley]
2164
2165 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
2166
2167 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
2168 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
2169 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
2170 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
2171 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
2172
2173 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
2174
2175 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
2176 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
2177
2178 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
2179
2180 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
2181 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
2182 errors for some broken certificates.
2183
2184 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
2185
2186 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
2187
2188 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
2189 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
2190
2191 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
2192 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
2193 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
2194 (negative or with leading zeroes).
2195
2196 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
2197 of the OpenSSL core team.
2198
2199 (CVE-2014-8275)
2200 [Steve Henson]
2201
2202 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
2203 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
2204 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
2205 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
2206 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
2207 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
2208 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
2209 the OpenSSL core team.
2210 (CVE-2014-3570)
2211 [Andy Polyakov]
2212
2213 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
2214 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
2215 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
2216 sanity and breaks all known clients.
2217 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
2218
2219 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
2220 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
2221 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
2222 [Emilia Käsper]
2223
2224 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
2225 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
2226 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
2227 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
2228 announced in the initial ServerHello.
2229
2230 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
2231 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
2232 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
2233 [Emilia Käsper]
2234
2235 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
2236
2237 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
2238
2239 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
2240 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
2241 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
2242 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
2243 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
2244 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
2245 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
2246
2247 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
2248 (CVE-2014-3513)
2249 [OpenSSL team]
2250
2251 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
2252
2253 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
2254 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
2255 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
2256 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
2257 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
2258 attack.
2259 (CVE-2014-3567)
2260 [Steve Henson]
2261
2262 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
2263
2264 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
2265 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
2266 configured to send them.
2267 (CVE-2014-3568)
2268 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
2269
2270 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
2271 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
2272 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
2273 (CVE-2014-3566)
2274 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
2275
2276 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
2277
2278 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
2279 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
2280 DigestInfo structures.
2281
2282 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
2283
2284 [Steve Henson]
2285
2286 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
2287
2288 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
2289 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
2290 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
2291
2292 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
2293 Group for discovering this issue.
2294 (CVE-2014-3512)
2295 [Steve Henson]
2296
2297 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
2298 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
2299 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
2300 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
2301 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
2302
2303 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
2304 researching this issue.
2305 (CVE-2014-3511)
2306 [David Benjamin]
2307
2308 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
2309 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
2310 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
2311 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
2312
2313 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
2314 issue.
2315 (CVE-2014-3510)
2316 [Emilia Käsper]
2317
2318 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
2319 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
2320 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
2321 (CVE-2014-3507)
2322 [Adam Langley]
2323
2324 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
2325 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
2326 Denial of Service attack.
2327 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
2328 (CVE-2014-3506)
2329 [Adam Langley]
2330
2331 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
2332 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
2333 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
2334 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
2335 this issue.
2336 (CVE-2014-3505)
2337 [Adam Langley]
2338
2339 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
2340 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
2341 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
2342
2343 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
2344 issue.
2345 (CVE-2014-3509)
2346 [Gabor Tyukasz]
2347
2348 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
2349 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
2350 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
2351 Denial of Service attack.
2352
2353 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
2354 discovering and researching this issue.
2355 (CVE-2014-5139)
2356 [Steve Henson]
2357
2358 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
2359 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
2360 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
2361 output to the attacker.
2362
2363 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
2364 (CVE-2014-3508)
2365 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
2366
2367 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2368 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2369 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2370 [Bodo Moeller]
2371
2372 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
2373
2374 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
2375 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
2376 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
2377
2378 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
2379 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
2380 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
2381
2382 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
2383 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
2384 in a DoS attack.
2385
2386 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
2387 (CVE-2014-0221)
2388 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
2389
2390 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
2391 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
2392 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
2393 code on a vulnerable client or server.
2394
2395 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
2396 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
2397
2398 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
2399 are subject to a denial of service attack.
2400
2401 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
2402 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
2403 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
2404
2405 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
2406 compilation flags.
2407 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2408
2409 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
2410 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
2411 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2412
2413 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
2414 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2415
2416 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
2417
2418 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
2419 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
2420 server.
2421
2422 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
2423 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
2424 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
2425 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
2426
2427 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
2428 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
2429 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
2430 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
2431
2432 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
2433 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
2434 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
2435
2436 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
2437
2438 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
2439 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
2440 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
2441 is at least 512 bytes long.
2442
2443 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
2444
2445 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
2446
2447 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
2448 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
2449 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
2450 (CVE-2013-4353)
2451
2452 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
2453 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
2454 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
2455 [Steve Henson]
2456
2457 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
2458 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
2459 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
2460 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
2461 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
2462 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
2463 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
2464
2465 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
2466
2467 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
2468 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
2469 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2470
2471 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
2472
2473 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
2474
2475 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
2476 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
2477 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
2478
2479 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2480 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2481 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
2482 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
2483 (CVE-2013-0169)
2484 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2485
2486 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
2487 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
2488 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
2489 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
2490 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
2491 (CVE-2012-2686)
2492 [Adam Langley]
2493
2494 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2495 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2496 [Steve Henson]
2497
2498 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
2499 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
2500
2501 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
2502 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
2503 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
2504 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
2505 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2506
2507 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2508 [Steve Henson]
2509
2510 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
2511 if renegotiating.
2512 [Steve Henson]
2513
2514 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
2515
2516 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
2517 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
2518
2519 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2520 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2521 (CVE-2012-2333)
2522 [Steve Henson]
2523
2524 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2525 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2526 [Steve Henson]
2527
2528 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
2529 approved.
2530 [Steve Henson]
2531
2532 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
2533
2534 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
2535 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
2536 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
2537 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
2538 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
2539 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
2540 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
2541 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
2542 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
2543 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
2544 [Steve Henson]
2545
2546 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
2547 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
2548 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
2549 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
2550 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
2551 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
2552 client side.
2553 [Andy Polyakov]
2554
2555 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
2556
2557 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2558 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2559 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2560
2561 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2562 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2563 (CVE-2012-2110)
2564 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2565
2566 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
2567 [Adam Langley]
2568
2569 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
2570 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
2571
2572 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
2573 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
2574 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
2575 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
2576 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
2577 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
2578 Most broken servers should now work.
2579 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
2580 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
2581 [Steve Henson]
2582
2583 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
2584 [Andy Polyakov]
2585
2586 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
2587
2588 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
2589 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
2590 [Steve Henson]
2591
2592 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
2593 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
2594 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
2595 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
2596 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
2597 [Steve Henson]
2598
2599 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
2600 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
2601 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
2602 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
2603 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
2604 [Steve Henson]
2605
2606 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
2607 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2608
2609 *) Add support for SCTP.
2610 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2611
2612 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
2613 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
2614
2615 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
2616
2617 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
2618 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
2619 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
2620 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
2621 - s390x: z196 support;
2622 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
2623
2624 [Andy Polyakov]
2625
2626 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
2627 (removal of unnecessary code)
2628 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
2629
2630 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
2631 [Eric Rescorla]
2632
2633 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
2634 [Eric Rescorla]
2635
2636 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
2637 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
2638 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
2639 by Google.
2640 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
2641
2642 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
2643 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
2644 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
2645 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
2646 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
2647
2648 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
2649 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
2650 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
2651
2652 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
2653 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
2654 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
2655
2656 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
2657 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
2658 implementations).
2659 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2660
2661 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
2662 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
2663 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
2664 [Steve Henson]
2665
2666 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
2667 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
2668 particular PSS.
2669 [Steve Henson]
2670
2671 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
2672 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
2673 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
2674 [Steve Henson]
2675
2676 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
2677 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
2678 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
2679 the appropriate parameters.
2680 [Steve Henson]
2681
2682 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
2683 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
2684 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
2685 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
2686 against a number of sample certificates.
2687 [Steve Henson]
2688
2689 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
2690 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
2691
2692 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
2693 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
2694
2695 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
2696 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
2697 parameters r, s.
2698 [Steve Henson]
2699
2700 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
2701 RFC3211.
2702 [Steve Henson]
2703
2704 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
2705 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
2706 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
2707 password based CMS).
2708 [Steve Henson]
2709
2710 *) Session-handling fixes:
2711 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
2712 but also support Session Tickets.
2713 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
2714 presented a ticket with an expired session.
2715 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
2716 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
2717 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
2718 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2719
2720 *) Fix PSK session representation.
2721 [Bodo Moeller]
2722
2723 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
2724
2725 This work was sponsored by Intel.
2726 [Andy Polyakov]
2727
2728 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
2729 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
2730 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
2731 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
2732 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
2733 [Steve Henson]
2734
2735 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
2736 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
2737 [Steve Henson]
2738
2739 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
2740 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
2741 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
2742 [Steve Henson]
2743
2744 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
2745 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
2746 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
2747 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
2748 [Steve Henson]
2749
2750 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
2751 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
2752 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
2753 [Steve Henson]
2754
2755 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
2756 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
2757
2758 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
2759 [Steve Henson]
2760
2761 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
2762 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
2763 [Steve Henson]
2764
2765 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2766 [Steve Henson]
2767
2768 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
2769 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
2770 [Steve Henson]
2771
2772 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
2773 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
2774 [Steve Henson]
2775
2776 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
2777 [Steve Henson]
2778
2779 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
2780 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
2781 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
2782 [Steve Henson]
2783
2784 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
2785 [Steve Henson]
2786
2787 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
2788 [Steve Henson]
2789
2790 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
2791 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
2792 [Steve Henson]
2793
2794 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
2795 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
2796 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
2797 [Steve Henson]
2798
2799 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
2800 [Steve Henson]
2801
2802 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
2803 and enable MD5.
2804 [Steve Henson]
2805
2806 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
2807 FIPS modules versions.
2808 [Steve Henson]
2809
2810 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
2811 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
2812 until after the certificate request message is received.
2813 [Steve Henson]
2814
2815 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
2816 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
2817 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
2818 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
2819 [Steve Henson]
2820
2821 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
2822 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
2823 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
2824 support yet and no support for client certificates.
2825 [Steve Henson]
2826
2827 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
2828 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
2829 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
2830 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
2831 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
2832 and version checking.
2833 [Steve Henson]
2834
2835 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
2836 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
2837 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
2838 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
2839 [Steve Henson]
2840
2841 *) Add SRP support.
2842 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2843
2844 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
2845 [Steve Henson]
2846
2847 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
2848 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
2849 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2850
2851 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
2852 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
2853 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
2854 [Steve Henson]
2855
2856 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
2857 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
2858
2859 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
2860 a few changes are required:
2861
2862 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
2863 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
2864 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
2865 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
2866 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
2867 [Steve Henson]
2868
2869 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
2870
2871 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2872 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2873 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2874 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2875 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
2876 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2877 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2878 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2879 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2880 [Steve Henson]
2881
2882 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2883 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2884 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2885 [Steve Henson]
2886
2887 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
2888
2889 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2890 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2891 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2892 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2893 [Antonio Martin]
2894
2895 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
2896
2897 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2898 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2899 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2900 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2901 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2902 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2903 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2904 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2905 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2906 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2907 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2908 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2909 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2910
2911 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2912 (CVE-2011-4576)
2913 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2914
2915 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2916 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2917 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2918 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2919
2920 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
2921 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
2922
2923 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2924 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2925 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2926 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2927
2928 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
2929 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
2930
2931 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2932 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2933
2934 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2935 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2936
2937 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2938 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2939 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2940
2941 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2942 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2943 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2944
2945 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2946 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2947 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2948 the last update always remained unused).
2949 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2950
2951 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
2952 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
2953
2954 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
2955
2956 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
2957 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
2958 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
2959
2960 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2961 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
2962 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2963
2964 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2965 [Bodo Moeller]
2966
2967 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
2968 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
2969 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
2970 [Steve Henson]
2971
2972 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2973 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2974
2975 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2976
2977 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2978
2979 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
2980
2981 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2982 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2983
2984 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2985 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2986 ambiguous.
2987 [Steve Henson]
2988
2989 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
2990
2991 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2992 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2993 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2994 [Steve Henson]
2995
2996 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2997 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2998 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2999 [Ben Laurie]
3000
3001 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
3002
3003 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
3004 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
3005 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
3006 [Steve Henson]
3007
3008 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
3009 a DLL.
3010 [Steve Henson]
3011
3012 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
3013
3014 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
3015 (CVE-2010-1633)
3016 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
3017
3018 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
3019
3020 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
3021 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
3022 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
3023 [Steve Henson]
3024
3025 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
3026 [Steve Henson]
3027
3028 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
3029 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
3030 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
3031
3032 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
3033 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
3034 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
3035 [Steve Henson]
3036
3037 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
3038 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
3039 [Steve Henson]
3040
3041 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
3042 some responders need this.
3043 [Steve Henson]
3044
3045 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
3046 correctly.
3047 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
3048
3049 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
3050 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
3051 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
3052 [Steve Henson]
3053
3054 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
3055 [Steve Henson]
3056
3057 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
3058 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
3059 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
3060 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
3061 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
3062 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
3063 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
3064 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
3065 [Steve Henson]
3066
3067 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
3068 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
3069 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
3070 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
3071
3072 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
3073 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
3074
3075 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
3076 be used on C++.
3077 [Steve Henson]
3078
3079 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
3080 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
3081 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
3082 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
3083 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
3084 attempting to work them out.
3085 [Steve Henson]
3086
3087 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
3088 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
3089 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
3090 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
3091 [Steve Henson]
3092
3093 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
3094 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
3095 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
3096 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
3097 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
3098 [Steve Henson]
3099
3100 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
3101 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
3102 you can do:
3103
3104 openssl sha256 foo
3105
3106 as well as:
3107
3108 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
3109
3110 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
3111
3112 [Steve Henson]
3113
3114 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
3115 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
3116
3117 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
3118 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
3119
3120 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
3121 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
3122 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
3123 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
3124 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
3125 [Steve Henson]
3126
3127 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
3128 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
3129 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
3130 [Steve Henson]
3131
3132 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
3133 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
3134 [Steve Henson]
3135
3136 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
3137 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
3138
3139 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
3140 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
3141 [Steve Henson]
3142
3143 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
3144 [Ben Laurie]
3145
3146 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
3147 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
3148 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
3149 CONF_VALUE.
3150 [Ben Laurie]
3151
3152 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
3153 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
3154 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
3155 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
3156 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
3157 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
3158 [Steve Henson]
3159
3160 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
3161 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
3162
3163 This work was sponsored by Google.
3164 [Steve Henson]
3165
3166 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
3167 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
3168 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
3169 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
3170 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
3171 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
3172 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
3173 default.
3174
3175 This work was sponsored by Google.
3176 [Steve Henson]
3177
3178 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
3179
3180 This work was sponsored by Google.
3181 [Steve Henson]
3182
3183 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
3184 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
3185 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
3186 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
3187
3188 This work was sponsored by Google.
3189 [Steve Henson]
3190
3191 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
3192 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
3193 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
3194 CRL functionality in future.
3195
3196 This work was sponsored by Google.
3197 [Steve Henson]
3198
3199 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
3200
3201 This work was sponsored by Google.
3202 [Steve Henson]
3203
3204 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
3205 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
3206
3207 This work was sponsored by Google.
3208 [Steve Henson]
3209
3210 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
3211 and URI types are currently supported.
3212
3213 This work was sponsored by Google.
3214 [Steve Henson]
3215
3216 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
3217 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
3218 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
3219 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
3220 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
3221 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
3222 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
3223 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
3224
3225 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
3226 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
3227 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
3228
3229 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
3230 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
3231 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
3232 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
3233
3234 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
3235 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
3236 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
3237 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
3238 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
3239 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
3240 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
3241 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
3242 of &errno.)
3243 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
3244
3245 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
3246 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
3247 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
3248
3249 This work was sponsored by Google.
3250 [Steve Henson]
3251
3252 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
3253 [Ben Laurie]
3254
3255 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
3256 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
3257 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
3258 [Ben Laurie]
3259
3260 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
3261 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
3262 [Nick Mathewson]
3263
3264 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
3265 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
3266 [Ben Laurie]
3267
3268 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
3269 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
3270 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
3271 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
3272 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
3273 content types and variants.
3274 [Steve Henson]
3275
3276 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
3277 [Steve Henson]
3278
3279 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
3280 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
3281 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
3282 files from the associated perl scripts.
3283 [Steve Henson]
3284
3285 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
3286 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
3287 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
3288
3289 *) s390x assembler pack.
3290 [Andy Polyakov]
3291
3292 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
3293 "family."
3294 [Andy Polyakov]
3295
3296 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
3297 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
3298 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
3299 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
3300 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
3301 to use. For example, specify an option
3302
3303 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
3304
3305 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
3306 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
3307 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
3308 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
3309 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
3310 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
3311
3312 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
3313 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
3314 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
3315 return non-zero for success.
3316
3317 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
3318 by using
3319
3320 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
3321 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
3322
3323 where
3324
3325 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
3326 void *arg;
3327
3328 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
3329 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
3330 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
3331 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
3332 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
3333 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
3334 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
3335 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
3336 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
3337
3338 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
3339 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
3340 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
3341 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
3342 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
3343 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
3344
3345 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
3346 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
3347 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
3348 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
3349 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
3350 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
3351
3352 [Bodo Moeller]
3353
3354 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
3355 MAC.
3356
3357 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
3358
3359 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3360 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3361 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3362 supported.
3363
3364 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3365 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3366 SSL_SESSION.
3367
3368 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3369 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3370 with no application modification.
3371
3372 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3373 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3374
3375 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3376 or server extensions to be examined.
3377
3378 This work was sponsored by Google.
3379 [Steve Henson]
3380
3381 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
3382 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
3383 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
3384
3385 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
3386 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
3387 ciphersuite support.
3388 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
3389
3390 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
3391 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
3392 to output in BER and PEM format.
3393 [Steve Henson]
3394
3395 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
3396 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
3397 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
3398 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
3399 -macopt options to dgst utility.
3400 [Steve Henson]
3401
3402 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
3403 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
3404 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
3405 utility.
3406 [Steve Henson]
3407
3408 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
3409 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
3410 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
3411 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
3412 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
3413 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
3414 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
3415 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
3416 enabled again.
3417
3418 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
3419 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
3420 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
3421 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
3422
3423 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
3424 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
3425 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
3426 the default order.
3427 [Bodo Moeller]
3428
3429 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
3430 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
3431 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
3432 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
3433 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
3434 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
3435 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
3436 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
3437 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
3438
3439 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
3440 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
3441 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
3442 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
3443 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
3444 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
3445 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
3446 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
3447 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
3448 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
3449 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
3450 kinds of kludges.
3451
3452 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
3453 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
3454 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
3455
3456 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
3457 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
3458 "CAMELLIA256".
3459 [Bodo Moeller]
3460
3461 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
3462 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
3463 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
3464 [Nils Larsch]
3465
3466 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
3467 it yet and it is largely untested.
3468 [Steve Henson]
3469
3470 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
3471 [Nils Larsch]
3472
3473 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
3474 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
3475 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
3476 [Steve Henson]
3477
3478 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
3479 [Andy Polyakov]
3480
3481 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
3482 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
3483 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
3484 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
3485 [Steve Henson]
3486
3487 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
3488 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
3489 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
3490 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
3491 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
3492 [Steve Henson]
3493
3494 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
3495 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
3496 [Cryptocom]
3497
3498 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
3499 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
3500 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
3501 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
3502 [Steve Henson]
3503
3504 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
3505 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
3506 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
3507 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
3508 [Steve Henson]
3509
3510 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
3511 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
3512 [Steve Henson]
3513
3514 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
3515 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
3516 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
3517 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
3518 [Steve Henson]
3519
3520 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
3521 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
3522 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
3523 [Steve Henson]
3524
3525 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
3526 utility.
3527 [Steve Henson]
3528
3529 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
3530 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
3531 [Steve Henson]
3532
3533 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
3534 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
3535 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
3536 if necessary.
3537 [Steve Henson]
3538
3539 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
3540 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
3541 to free up any added signature OIDs.
3542 [Steve Henson]
3543
3544 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
3545 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
3546 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
3547 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
3548 [Steve Henson]
3549
3550 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
3551 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
3552 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
3553 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
3554 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
3555 the array representation useful in a more general context.
3556 [Douglas Stebila]
3557
3558 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
3559 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
3560 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
3561 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
3562 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
3563
3564 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
3565 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
3566 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
3567 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
3568 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
3569 protocol).
3570
3571 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
3572 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
3573 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
3574 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
3575
3576 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
3577 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
3578 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
3579 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
3580 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
3581
3582 aECDH - ECDH cert
3583 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
3584 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
3585
3586 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
3587 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
3588
3589 [Bodo Moeller]
3590
3591 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
3592 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
3593 [Steve Henson]
3594
3595 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
3596 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
3597 [Steve Henson]
3598
3599 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
3600 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
3601 functional reference processing.
3602 [Steve Henson]
3603
3604 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
3605 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
3606 process.
3607 [Steve Henson]
3608
3609 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
3610 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
3611 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
3612 [Steve Henson]
3613
3614 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
3615 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
3616 application to support multiple signers.
3617 [Steve Henson]
3618
3619 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
3620 digest MAC.
3621 [Steve Henson]
3622
3623 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
3624 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
3625 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
3626 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
3627 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
3628 [Steve Henson]
3629
3630 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
3631 new API.
3632 [Steve Henson]
3633
3634 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
3635 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
3636 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
3637 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
3638 a no op.
3639 [Steve Henson]
3640
3641 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
3642 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
3643 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
3644 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
3645 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
3646 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
3647 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
3648 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
3649 [Steve Henson]
3650
3651 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
3652 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
3653 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
3654 between digests and public key types.
3655 [Steve Henson]
3656
3657 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
3658 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
3659 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
3660 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
3661 [Steve Henson]
3662
3663 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
3664 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
3665 key ASN1 method.
3666 [Steve Henson]
3667
3668 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
3669 [Steve Henson]
3670
3671 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
3672 pkeyutl.
3673 [Steve Henson]
3674
3675 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
3676 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
3677 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
3678 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
3679 pkey, genpkey.
3680 [Steve Henson]
3681
3682 *) BeOS support.
3683 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
3684
3685 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
3686 manual pages.
3687 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
3688
3689 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
3690 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
3691 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
3692 functionality for RSA.
3693 [Steve Henson]
3694
3695 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
3696 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
3697 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
3698 [Steve Henson]
3699
3700 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
3701 key API, doesn't do much yet.
3702 [Steve Henson]
3703
3704 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
3705 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
3706 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
3707 [Steve Henson]
3708
3709 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
3710 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
3711 [Douglas Stebila]
3712
3713 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
3714 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
3715 [Steve Henson]
3716
3717 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
3718 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
3719 type.
3720 [Steve Henson]
3721
3722 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
3723 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
3724 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
3725 structure.
3726 [Steve Henson]
3727
3728 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
3729 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
3730 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
3731 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
3732 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
3733 of public and private key structures.
3734 [Steve Henson]
3735
3736 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
3737 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
3738 [Douglas Stebila]
3739
3740 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
3741 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
3742 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
3743
3744 New ciphersuites:
3745 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
3746 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
3747
3748 New functions:
3749 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
3750 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
3751 SSL_get_psk_identity
3752 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
3753
3754 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
3755
3756 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
3757 and response verification functionality.
3758 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
3759
3760 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3761 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3762 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3763 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3764 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3765 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3766 server_name extension.
3767
3768 New functions (subject to change):
3769
3770 SSL_get_servername()
3771 SSL_get_servername_type()
3772 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3773
3774 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3775
3776 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3777 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3778 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3779 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3780 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3781
3782 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3783
3784 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3785 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3786 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3787 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3788 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
3789 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3790 option.
3791
3792 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
3793
3794 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
3795 [Andy Polyakov]
3796
3797 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
3798 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
3799 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
3800 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
3801 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
3802 [Andy Polyakov]
3803
3804 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
3805 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
3806 macro.
3807 [Bodo Moeller]
3808
3809 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
3810 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
3811 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
3812 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
3813 [Andy Polyakov]
3814
3815 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
3816 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
3817 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
3818 using the maximum available value.
3819 [Steve Henson]
3820
3821 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
3822 in addition to the text details.
3823 [Bodo Moeller]
3824
3825 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
3826 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
3827 handle several customised structures at all.
3828 [Steve Henson]
3829
3830 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
3831 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
3832 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
3833 [Steve Henson]
3834
3835 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
3836 [Steve Henson]
3837
3838 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
3839 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
3840 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
3841 [Steve Henson]
3842
3843 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
3844 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
3845 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
3846 [Nils Larsch]
3847
3848 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
3849 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
3850 all fields.
3851 [Steve Henson]
3852
3853 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
3854 [Steve Henson]
3855
3856 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
3857 [NTT]
3858
3859 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
3860
3861 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
3862 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
3863 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
3864 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
3865 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
3866 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
3867 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
3868 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
3869
3870 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
3871 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
3872 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
3873
3874 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
3875
3876 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
3877 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
3878
3879 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
3880 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
3881 [Bodo Moeller]
3882
3883 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
3884 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
3885 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
3886 [Steve Henson]
3887
3888 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
3889 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
3890 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
3891 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
3892 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
3893 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
3894 [Steve Henson]
3895
3896 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
3897 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
3898 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
3899 [Steve Henson]
3900
3901 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
3902 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
3903 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
3904 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
3905 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
3906 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
3907 CVE-2009-4355.
3908 [Steve Henson]
3909
3910 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
3911 change when encrypting or decrypting.
3912 [Bodo Moeller]
3913
3914 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
3915 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
3916 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
3917 [Steve Henson]
3918
3919 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
3920 [Steve Henson]
3921
3922 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
3923 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
3924 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
3925 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
3926 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
3927 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
3928 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
3929 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
3930 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
3931 [Steve Henson]
3932
3933 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
3934 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
3935 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
3936 [Steve Henson]
3937
3938 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
3939 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
3940 [Steve Henson]
3941
3942 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
3943 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
3944 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
3945 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
3946 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
3947 know what you are doing.
3948 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
3949
3950 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
3951 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
3952 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
3953 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
3954 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
3955 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
3956 the handshake.
3957 [Steve Henson]
3958
3959 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
3960 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
3961 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
3962 correctly.
3963 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
3964
3965 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
3966 warnings in other configurations.
3967 [Steve Henson]
3968
3969 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
3970 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
3971 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
3972 systems need.
3973 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
3974
3975 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
3976 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
3977 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
3978
3979 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
3980 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
3981 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
3982 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
3983 [Steve Henson]
3984
3985 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
3986 and restored.
3987 [Steve Henson]
3988
3989 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
3990 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
3991 clash.
3992 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
3993
3994 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
3995 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
3996 other than a simple chain.
3997 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
3998
3999 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
4000 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
4001 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
4002 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
4003 [Steve Henson]
4004
4005 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
4006 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
4007 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
4008 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
4009 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
4010 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
4011 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
4012 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
4013 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4014
4015 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
4016 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
4017 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
4018 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
4019 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
4020 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
4021 (CVE-2009-1377)
4022 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4023
4024 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
4025 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
4026 [Daniel Mentz]
4027
4028 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
4029 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
4030
4031 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
4032 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
4033
4034 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
4035
4036 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
4037 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
4038 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
4039 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
4040 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
4041 you're doing.
4042 [Ben Laurie]
4043
4044 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
4045
4046 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
4047 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
4048 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
4049 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
4050
4051 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
4052 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
4053 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
4054 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
4055
4056 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
4057 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
4058 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
4059 [Steve Henson]
4060
4061 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
4062 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
4063 level.
4064 [Steve Henson]
4065
4066 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
4067 to handle some structures.
4068 [Steve Henson]
4069
4070 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
4071 for a '\n'
4072 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
4073
4074 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
4075 [Matthieu Herrb]
4076
4077 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
4078 [Steve Henson]
4079
4080 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
4081 [Steve Henson]
4082
4083 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
4084 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
4085 chosen compiler.
4086 [Ben Laurie]
4087
4088 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
4089
4090 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
4091 (CVE-2008-5077).
4092 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
4093
4094 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
4095 [Ben Laurie]
4096
4097 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
4098 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
4099 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
4100 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
4101
4102 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
4103 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
4104
4105 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
4106 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
4107 [Bodo Moeller]
4108
4109 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
4110 s_client and s_server.
4111 [Ben Laurie]
4112
4113 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
4114 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
4115
4116 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
4117 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
4118
4119 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
4120 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
4121 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
4122 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
4123 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
4124 [Bodo Moeller]
4125
4126 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
4127
4128 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
4129 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
4130 [PR #1679]
4131
4132 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
4133 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
4134 [Nagendra Modadugu]
4135
4136 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
4137 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
4138 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
4139 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
4140
4141 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
4142 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
4143
4144 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
4145
4146 *) Various precautionary measures:
4147
4148 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
4149
4150 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
4151 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
4152 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
4153
4154 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
4155 outside the expected range.
4156
4157 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
4158 builds.
4159
4160 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
4161
4162 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
4163 the load fails. Useful for distros.
4164 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
4165
4166 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
4167 [Steve Henson]
4168
4169 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
4170 [Huang Ying]
4171
4172 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
4173
4174 This work was sponsored by Logica.
4175 [Steve Henson]
4176
4177 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
4178 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
4179 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
4180
4181 This work was sponsored by Logica.
4182 [Steve Henson]
4183
4184 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
4185 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
4186 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
4187 files.
4188 [Steve Henson]
4189
4190 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
4191
4192 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
4193 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
4194 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
4195 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
4196
4197 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
4198 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
4199 [Joe Orton]
4200
4201 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
4202
4203 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
4204 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
4205 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
4206
4207 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
4208
4209 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
4210 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
4211 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
4212 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
4213 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4214
4215 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
4216 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
4217 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
4218 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
4219 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
4220 invalid read after the end of 'db').
4221 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
4222
4223 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
4224
4225 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
4226 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
4227 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
4228 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
4229 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
4230
4231 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
4232 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
4233
4234 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
4235 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
4236 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
4237 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
4238 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
4239
4240 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
4241
4242 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
4243 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
4244 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
4245 sets may exist with different names.
4246 [Steve Henson]
4247
4248 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
4249 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
4250 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
4251 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
4252 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
4253 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
4254 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
4255 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
4256 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
4257 implementation.
4258 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
4259
4260 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
4261 implementation in the following ways:
4262
4263 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
4264 hard coded.
4265
4266 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
4267 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
4268 ignored for embedded content.
4269
4270 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
4271 with the enable-cms configuration option.
4272 [Steve Henson]
4273
4274 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
4275 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
4276 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
4277 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
4278
4279 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
4280 uncompresses any data passed through it.
4281 [Steve Henson]
4282
4283 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
4284 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
4285 [Steve Henson]
4286
4287 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
4288 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
4289 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
4290 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
4291 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
4292 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
4293 data.
4294 [Steve Henson]
4295
4296 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
4297 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
4298 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4299
4300 *) Netware support:
4301
4302 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
4303 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
4304 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
4305 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
4306 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
4307 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
4308 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
4309 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
4310 platform
4311 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
4312 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
4313 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
4314 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
4315 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
4316 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
4317 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
4318
4319 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
4320 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
4321 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
4322 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
4323 to s_client and s_server.
4324 [Steve Henson]
4325
4326 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
4327
4328 *) Fix various bugs:
4329 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
4330 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
4331 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
4332 + Fix ia64 assembler code
4333 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
4334
4335 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
4336
4337 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
4338 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
4339 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
4340 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
4341 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
4342 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
4343 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
4344 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
4345 [Andy Polyakov]
4346
4347 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
4348 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
4349 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
4350 Steve Henson]
4351
4352 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4353 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4354 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4355 supported.
4356
4357 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4358 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4359 SSL_SESSION.
4360
4361 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4362 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4363 with no application modification.
4364
4365 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4366 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4367
4368 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4369 or server extensions to be examined.
4370
4371 This work was sponsored by Google.
4372 [Steve Henson]
4373
4374 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4375 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4376 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4377 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4378 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4379 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4380 server_name extension.
4381
4382 New functions (subject to change):
4383
4384 SSL_get_servername()
4385 SSL_get_servername_type()
4386 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4387
4388 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4389
4390 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4391 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4392 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4393 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4394 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4395
4396 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4397
4398 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4399 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4400 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4401 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4402 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4403 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4404 option.
4405
4406 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
4407
4408 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
4409 [Steve Henson]
4410
4411 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
4412 [Andy Polyakov]
4413
4414 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
4415 (which previously caused an internal error).
4416 [Bodo Moeller]
4417
4418 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
4419 [Ben Laurie]
4420
4421 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
4422 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
4423
4424 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
4425 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
4426 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
4427
4428 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
4429 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
4430 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
4431 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
4432
4433 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
4434 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
4435 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
4436 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
4437
4438 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
4439 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
4440 information. For detailed background information, see
4441 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
4442 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
4443 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
4444 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
4445 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
4446 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
4447 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
4448 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
4449 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
4450 remove a conditional branch.
4451
4452 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
4453 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
4454 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
4455 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
4456 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
4457 remains as a deprecated alias.
4458
4459 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
4460 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
4461 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
4462 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
4463
4464 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
4465 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
4466 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
4467 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
4468 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
4469 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
4470 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
4471 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
4472
4473 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
4474
4475 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
4476 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
4477 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
4478 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
4479 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
4480 with applications using a single external cache for quite
4481 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
4482 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
4483 in a different context.
4484 [Bodo Moeller]
4485
4486 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4487 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4488 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4489 [Bodo Moeller]
4490
4491 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
4492 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
4493 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
4494
4495 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
4496
4497 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
4498 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
4499 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4500 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
4501 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
4502 [Victor Duchovni]
4503
4504 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
4505 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
4506 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
4507 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
4508 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
4509 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
4510 [Bodo Moeller]
4511
4512 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4513 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4514 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4515 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4516 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4517 [Bodo Moeller]
4518
4519 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
4520 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
4521
4522 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4523 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4524 Improve header file function name parsing.
4525 [Steve Henson]
4526
4527 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
4528 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
4529 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
4530
4531 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
4532
4533 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4534 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4535 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4536
4537 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4538 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4539
4540 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4541 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4542
4543 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4544 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4545 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4546
4547 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
4548 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
4549 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
4550 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
4551 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
4552 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
4553 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
4554 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
4555 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
4556
4557 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
4558 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
4559 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
4560 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
4561 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
4562
4563 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
4564 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
4565 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
4566 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
4567 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
4568 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
4569 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
4570 multiple values to extend the available space.
4571
4572 [Bodo Moeller]
4573
4574 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
4575
4576 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4577 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4578
4579 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
4580 [Ben Laurie]
4581
4582 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4583 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4584 undesirable limitations.
4585 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4586
4587 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
4588 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
4589 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
4590 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
4591 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
4592 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
4593 to avoid potential handshake problems.
4594 [Bodo Moeller]
4595
4596 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4597
4598 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4599 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4600 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4601
4602 The latter two were purportedly from
4603 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4604 appear there.
4605
4606 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
4607 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4608 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4609 [Bodo Moeller]
4610
4611 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
4612 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4613 [Bodo Moeller]
4614
4615 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
4616 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
4617 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
4618 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
4619
4620 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
4621 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
4622 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
4623 [NTT]
4624
4625 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
4626 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
4627 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
4628 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
4629 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
4630 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
4631 [Steve Henson]
4632
4633 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
4634
4635 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
4636 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
4637 [Steve Henson]
4638
4639 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
4640 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
4641
4642 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
4643 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
4644 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
4645 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
4646 [Douglas Stebila]
4647
4648 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
4649 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
4650 [Steve Henson]
4651
4652 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
4653 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
4654 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
4655 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
4656 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
4657 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
4658 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
4659 can't be loaded.
4660 [Steve Henson]
4661
4662 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
4663 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
4664 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
4665 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
4666 [Steve Henson]
4667
4668 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
4669 under VC++ build system.
4670 [Steve Henson]
4671
4672 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
4673 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
4674 [Richard Levitte]
4675
4676 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
4677
4678 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4679 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4680 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4681 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4682 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4683
4684 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4685 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4686 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4687
4688 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
4689 [Steve Henson]
4690
4691 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
4692 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
4693 [Nils Larsch]
4694
4695 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
4696 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
4697
4698 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
4699 [Nick Mathewson]
4700
4701 *) Extended Windows CE support.
4702 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
4703
4704 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
4705 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
4706 [Steve Henson]
4707
4708 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
4709 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
4710 smime utility.
4711 [Steve Henson]
4712
4713 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
4714
4715 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4716 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4717
4718 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
4719 [Richard Levitte]
4720
4721 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
4722 key into the same file any more.
4723 [Richard Levitte]
4724
4725 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
4726 [Andy Polyakov]
4727
4728 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
4729 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
4730
4731 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
4732 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
4733 [Richard Levitte]
4734
4735 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
4736 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
4737 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
4738 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
4739 this only applies when building 'shared'.
4740 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
4741
4742 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
4743 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
4744 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
4745 [Steve Henson]
4746
4747 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
4748 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
4749 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
4750 - add new function for parameter creation
4751 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
4752 BN_BLINDING parameters
4753 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
4754 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
4755 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
4756 threads.
4757 [Nils Larsch]
4758
4759 *) Add support for DTLS.
4760 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
4761
4762 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
4763 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
4764 [Walter Goulet]
4765
4766 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
4767 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
4768 [Nils Larsch]
4769
4770 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
4771 the apps/openssl applications.
4772 [Nils Larsch]
4773
4774 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
4775 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
4776 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
4777 [Ben Laurie]
4778
4779 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
4780 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
4781
4782 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
4783 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
4784
4785 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
4786 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
4787 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
4788 avoid this algorithm.)
4789
4790 [Bodo Moeller]
4791
4792 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
4793 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
4794 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
4795 [Richard Levitte]
4796
4797 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
4798 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
4799 [Andy Polyakov]
4800
4801 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
4802 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
4803 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
4804 pod file:
4805
4806 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
4807
4808 The blank line is mandatory.
4809
4810 [Steve Henson]
4811
4812 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
4813 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
4814 sources.
4815 [Steve Henson]
4816
4817 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
4818 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
4819
4820 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
4821 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
4822 to support policy checking and print out.
4823 [Steve Henson]
4824
4825 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
4826 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
4827 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
4828 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
4829
4830 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
4831 [Geoff Thorpe]
4832
4833 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
4834 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
4835
4836 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
4837 implementation contributed by IBM.
4838 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
4839
4840 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
4841 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
4842 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
4843 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
4844
4845 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
4846 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
4847
4848 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
4849 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
4850 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
4851 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
4852 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
4853 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
4854 [Steve Henson]
4855
4856 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
4857 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
4858 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
4859 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
4860 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
4861 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
4862 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
4863 [Geoff Thorpe]
4864
4865 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
4866 [Steve Henson]
4867
4868 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
4869 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
4870 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
4871 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
4872 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
4873 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
4874 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
4875 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
4876 [Steve Henson]
4877
4878 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
4879 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
4880 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
4881 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
4882 [Steve Henson]
4883
4884 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
4885 syntax:
4886
4887 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
4888 [Steve Henson]
4889
4890 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
4891 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
4892 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
4893 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
4894 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
4895 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
4896 BN_CTX's "bundling".
4897 [Geoff Thorpe]
4898
4899 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
4900 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
4901 [Geoff Thorpe]
4902
4903 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
4904 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
4905 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
4906 [Steve Henson]
4907
4908 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
4909 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
4910 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
4911 below).
4912 [Geoff Thorpe]
4913
4914 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
4915 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
4916 [Richard Levitte]
4917
4918 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
4919 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
4920 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
4921 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
4922 [Geoff Thorpe]
4923
4924 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
4925 initialised value as BN_new().
4926 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
4927
4928 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
4929 [Steve Henson]
4930
4931 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
4932 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
4933 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
4934 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
4935 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
4936 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
4937 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
4938 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
4939 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
4940 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
4941 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
4942 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
4943 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
4944 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
4945 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
4946
4947 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
4948 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
4949 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
4950 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
4951 [Geoff Thorpe]
4952
4953 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
4954 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
4955 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
4956 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
4957 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
4958 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
4959 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
4960 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
4961 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
4962 [Geoff Thorpe]
4963
4964 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
4965 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
4966 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
4967 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
4968 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
4969 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
4970 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
4971 [Geoff Thorpe]
4972
4973 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
4974 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
4975 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
4976 these have been updated also.
4977 [Geoff Thorpe]
4978
4979 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
4980 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
4981 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
4982 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
4983 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
4984 functions.
4985 [Steve Henson]
4986
4987 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
4988 structure of type "other".
4989 [Steve Henson]
4990
4991 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
4992 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
4993 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
4994 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
4995 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
4996 situation in the script.
4997 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4998
4999 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5000 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
5001 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
5002 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
5003 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
5004 used as premaster secret.
5005 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5006
5007 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
5008 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
5009 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5010
5011 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
5012 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
5013
5014 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
5015 control of the error stack.
5016 [Richard Levitte]
5017
5018 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
5019 [Richard Levitte]
5020
5021 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
5022 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
5023 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
5024 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
5025 [Richard Levitte]
5026
5027 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
5028 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
5029 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
5030 [Richard Levitte]
5031
5032 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
5033 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
5034 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
5035 a memory area.
5036 [Richard Levitte]
5037
5038 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
5039 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
5040 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
5041 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
5042 [Richard Levitte]
5043
5044 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
5045 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
5046 the following flags are defined:
5047
5048 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
5049 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
5050 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
5051 number.
5052
5053 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
5054 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
5055 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
5056 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
5057 returns zero.
5058 [Richard Levitte]
5059
5060 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
5061 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
5062 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
5063 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
5064 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
5065 [Richard Levitte]
5066
5067 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
5068 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
5069 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
5070 [Richard Levitte]
5071
5072 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
5073 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
5074 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
5075 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
5076 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
5077 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
5078 [Richard Levitte]
5079
5080 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
5081 req and dirName.
5082 [Steve Henson]
5083
5084 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
5085 [Steve Henson]
5086
5087 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
5088 [Steve Henson]
5089
5090 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
5091 [Steve Henson]
5092
5093 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
5094 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
5095 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
5096 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
5097 default implementation more easily.
5098 [Geoff Thorpe]
5099
5100 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
5101 in config files.
5102 [Steve Henson]
5103
5104 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
5105 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
5106 [Richard Levitte]
5107
5108 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
5109 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
5110 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
5111 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
5112
5113 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
5114 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
5115 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
5116 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
5117 [Steve Henson]
5118
5119 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
5120 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
5121 to do it.
5122 [Richard Levitte]
5123
5124 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
5125 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
5126 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
5127 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
5128 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
5129 scalar * generator).
5130 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
5131
5132 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
5133 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
5134 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
5135 correctly.
5136 [Steve Henson]
5137
5138 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
5139 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
5140 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
5141 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
5142 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
5143 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
5144 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
5145 linker additions, eg;
5146 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
5147 [Geoff Thorpe]
5148
5149 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
5150 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
5151 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
5152 [Geoff Thorpe]
5153
5154 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
5155 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
5156 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
5157 via PR#459)
5158 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5159
5160 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
5161 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
5162 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
5163 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
5164 [Geoff Thorpe]
5165
5166 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
5167 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
5168 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
5169 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
5170 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
5171 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
5172 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
5173 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
5174 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
5175 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
5176
5177 Example for using the new callback interface:
5178
5179 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
5180 void *my_arg = ...;
5181 BN_GENCB my_cb;
5182
5183 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
5184
5185 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
5186 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
5187 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
5188 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
5189 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
5190 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
5191 */
5192
5193 [Geoff Thorpe]
5194
5195 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
5196 available to TLS with the number defined in
5197 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
5198 [Richard Levitte]
5199
5200 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
5201 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
5202
5203 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
5204 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
5205 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
5206 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
5207
5208 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
5209 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
5210
5211 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
5212 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
5213 well.
5214 [Richard Levitte]
5215
5216 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
5217 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
5218 [Richard Levitte]
5219
5220 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
5221 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
5222 and a macro that behave like
5223 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
5224
5225 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
5226 [Nils Larsch]
5227
5228 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
5229 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
5230 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
5231 if applicable.
5232 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5233
5234 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
5235 [Bodo Moeller]
5236
5237 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
5238 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
5239 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
5240 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
5241 directory engines/.
5242 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
5243 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
5244 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
5245 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
5246 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
5247 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
5248 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
5249 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
5250
5251 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
5252 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
5253 [Richard Levitte]
5254
5255 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
5256 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
5257
5258 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
5259 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
5260 files while avoiding the low level API.
5261
5262 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
5263 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
5264 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
5265 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
5266
5267 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
5268 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
5269 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
5270 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
5271 instead of the low level API.
5272 [Steve Henson]
5273
5274 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
5275 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
5276 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
5277 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
5278 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
5279 PKCS#7 code.
5280
5281 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
5282 down to the template encoder.
5283 [Steve Henson]
5284
5285 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
5286 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
5287 [Bodo Moeller]
5288
5289 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
5290 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
5291 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
5292 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5293
5294 *) Add ECDH engine support.
5295 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5296
5297 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
5298 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5299
5300 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
5301 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
5302 [Bodo Moeller]
5303
5304 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
5305 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
5306 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
5307 [Bodo Moeller]
5308
5309 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
5310 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
5311
5312 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5313 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5314
5315 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
5316 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
5317 New EC_METHOD:
5318
5319 EC_GF2m_simple_method
5320
5321 New API functions:
5322
5323 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
5324 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
5325 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
5326 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
5327 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
5328 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
5329
5330 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
5331 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
5332 enable it).
5333
5334 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
5335 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
5336 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
5337 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
5338 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
5339 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
5340 various internal method names.)
5341
5342 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
5343 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
5344
5345 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5346 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5347
5348 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
5349 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
5350
5351 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
5352 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
5353 methods are undefined.
5354
5355 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5356 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5357
5358 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
5359 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
5360 length of the modulus.
5361
5362 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5363 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5364
5365 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
5366 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
5367
5368 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5369 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5370
5371 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
5372 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
5373 used) in the following functions [macros]:
5374
5375 BN_GF2m_add
5376 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
5377 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
5378 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
5379 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
5380 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
5381 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
5382 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
5383 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
5384 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
5385
5386 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
5387 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
5388
5389 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
5390 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
5391 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
5392 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
5393 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
5394 where
5395 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
5396 This applies to the following functions:

5410
5411 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
5412 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
5413
5414 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
5415
5416 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
5417 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
5418 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
5419 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
5420 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
5421
5422 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5423 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5424
5425 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
5426 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
5427 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
5428
5429 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
5430 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
5431
5432 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
5433 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
5434 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
5435 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
5436 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5437
5438 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
5439 functions
5440 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
5441 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
5442 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
5443 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
5444 These control ASN1 encoding details:
5445 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
5446 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
5447 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
5448 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
5449 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
5450 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
5451 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
5452
5453 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
5454 functions
5455 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
5456 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
5457 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
5458 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
5459 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5460
5461 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
5462 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
5463 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
5464 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5465
5466 *) Add functions
5467 EC_POINT_point2bn()
5468 EC_POINT_bn2point()
5469 EC_POINT_point2hex()
5470 EC_POINT_hex2point()
5471 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
5472 EC_POINT_oct2point().
5473 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5474
5475 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
5476 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
5477 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
5478 EC_GROUP_get_order()
5479 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
5480 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
5481 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
5482 adding different types of curves.
5483 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
5484
5485 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
5486 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
5487 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
5488 [Bodo Moeller]
5489
5490 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
5491 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
5492
5493 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
5494 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
5495 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
5496 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5497
5498 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
5499
5500 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
5501 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
5502
5503 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
5504 library. Most notably,
5505 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
5506 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
5507 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
5508 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
5509 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
5510 extracted before the specific public key;
5511 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
5512 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5513
5514 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
5515 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
5516 function
5517 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
5518 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
5519 EC_get_builtin_curves().
5520 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
5521 accessed via
5522 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
5523 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
5524 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
5525
5526 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5527 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5528 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5529 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5530 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5531 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5532 differing sizes.
5533 [Richard Levitte]
5534
5535 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
5536
5537 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
5538 sensitive data.
5539 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
5540
5541 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5542 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5543 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5544 [Bodo Moeller]
5545
5546 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
5547 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5548 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
5549 [Victor Duchovni]
5550
5551 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
5552 [Steve Henson]
5553
5554 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
5555 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
5556 [Steve Henson]
5557
5558 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
5559 run algorithm test programs.
5560 [Steve Henson]
5561
5562 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
5563 [Steve Henson]
5564
5565 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5566 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5567 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5568 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5569 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5570 [Bodo Moeller]
5571
5572 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5573 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5574 [Steve Henson]
5575
5576 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
5577
5578 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5579 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5580 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5581
5582 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5583 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5584
5585 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5586 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5587
5588 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5589 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5590 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5591
5592 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
5593 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
5594 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
5595 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
5596 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
5597 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
5598 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
5599 [Bodo Moeller]
5600
5601 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
5602
5603 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5604 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5605
5606 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5607 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5608 undesirable limitations.
5609 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5610
5611 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5612
5613 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5614 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5615 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5616
5617 The latter two were purportedly from
5618 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5619 appear there.
5620
5621 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
5622 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5623 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5624 [Bodo Moeller]
5625
5626 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5627 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5628 [Bodo Moeller]
5629
5630 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
5631
5632 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
5633 module in FIPS mode.
5634 [Steve Henson]
5635
5636 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
5637 [Steve Henson]
5638
5639 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
5640 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
5641 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
5642 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
5643 [Steve Henson]
5644
5645 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
5646
5647 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
5648 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
5649 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
5650 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
5651 the difference induced by this change.
5652 [Andy Polyakov]
5653
5654 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
5655
5656 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5657 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5658 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5659 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5660 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5661
5662 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5663 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5664 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5665
5666 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
5667 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
5668 [Steve Henson]
5669
5670 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
5671 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
5672 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
5673 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
5674 biased k.)
5675 [Bodo Moeller]
5676
5677 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
5678 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
5679 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
5680 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
5681 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
5682
5683 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
5684 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
5685 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
5686 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
5687 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
5688 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
5689
5690 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
5691
5692 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
5693 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
5694 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
5695 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
5696 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
5697 [Bodo Moeller]
5698
5699 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
5700 clients need.
5701 [Steve Henson]
5702
5703 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
5704 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
5705 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
5706 [Steve Henson]
5707
5708 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
5709 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
5710 structures constant.
5711 [Steve Henson]
5712
5713 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
5714
5715 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5716 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5717
5718 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
5719 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
5720 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
5721 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
5722 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
5723 some needed definitions.
5724 [Steve Henson]
5725
5726 *) Undo Cygwin change.
5727 [Ulf Möller]
5728
5729 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
5730 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
5731 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
5732 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
5733 [Richard Levitte]
5734
5735 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
5736
5737 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
5738 server and client random values. Previously
5739 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
5740 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
5741
5742 This change has negligible security impact because:
5743
5744 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
5745 data.
5746
5747 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
5748 handshake.
5749
5750 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
5751 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
5752 values.
5753
5754 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
5755 to our attention.
5756
5757 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
5758
5759 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
5760 [Ulf Möller]
5761
5762 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
5763 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
5764 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
5765
5766 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
5767 [Steve Henson]
5768
5769 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
5770 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
5771 [Andy Polyakov]
5772
5773 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
5774 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
5775 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
5776
5777 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
5778 [Steve Henson]
5779
5780 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
5781 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
5782 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
5783 certificates.
5784 [Steve Henson]
5785
5786 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
5787 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
5788 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
5789 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
5790
5791 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
5792 has chosen to ignore this fault)
5793 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
5794 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
5795 been given)
5796 [Richard Levitte]
5797
5798 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
5799
5800 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
5801 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
5802 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
5803 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
5804 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
5805 [Steve Henson]
5806
5807 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
5808 [Steve Henson]
5809
5810 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
5811 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
5812
5813 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
5814 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
5815 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
5816 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
5817 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
5818 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
5819 rather than being initialized to 1.
5820 [Steve Henson]
5821
5822 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
5823
5824 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5825 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5826 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5827
5828 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
5829 (CVE-2004-0112)
5830 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5831
5832 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
5833 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
5834 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
5835 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
5836 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
5837 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
5838 [Richard Levitte]
5839
5840 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
5841 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
5842 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
5843 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
5844 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
5845 for these cases.
5846 [Steve Henson]
5847
5848 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
5849 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
5850 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
5851 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
5852 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
5853 [Steve Henson]
5854
5855 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
5856 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
5857 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
5858 < 0.9.7.
5859 [Steve Henson]
5860
5861 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
5862 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5863
5864 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
5865 [Steve Henson]
5866
5867 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
5868
5869 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5870
5871 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
5872 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
5873
5874 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
5875
5876 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5877 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
5878
5879 [Steve Henson]
5880
5881 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
5882 exiting on the first error in a request.
5883 [Steve Henson]
5884
5885 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5886 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5887 specifications.
5888 [Steve Henson]
5889
5890 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5891 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5892 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
5893 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
5894
5895 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
5896 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5897 [Richard Levitte]
5898
5899 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
5900 blocks during encryption.
5901 [Richard Levitte]
5902
5903 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
5904 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
5905 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
5906 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
5907 certain size.
5908 [Steve Henson]
5909
5910 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
5911 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
5912 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
5913 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
5914 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
5915 parser.
5916 [Steve Henson]
5917
5918 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
5919
5920 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5921 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5922 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5923 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5924 [Bodo Moeller]
5925
5926 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5927 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5928 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5929 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5930 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5931
5932 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5933 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5934 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5935 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5936 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5937 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5938 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5939 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5940 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5941 [Bodo Moeller]
5942
5943 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
5944 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
5945 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
5946 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
5947 [Geoff Thorpe]
5948
5949 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
5950 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
5951 [Ulf Moeller]
5952
5953 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
5954
5955 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5956 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
5957 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5958 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
5959 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
5960
5961 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
5962 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
5963 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
5964
5965 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
5966 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
5967 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
5968 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
5969 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
5970
5971 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
5972 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
5973 used by default when no-err is given.
5974 [Richard Levitte]
5975
5976 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
5977 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
5978
5979 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
5980 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
5981 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
5982 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
5983 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
5984
5985 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
5986 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
5987 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
5988 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
5989
5990 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
5991
5992 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
5993
5994 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
5995
5996 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
5997 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
5998 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
5999 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
6000 root is omitted).
6001 [Steve Henson]
6002
6003 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
6004 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
6005
6006 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
6007 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
6008 [Steve Henson]
6009
6010 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6011 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6012 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
6013 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
6014 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6015
6016 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
6017 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
6018 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
6019 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
6020 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
6021 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
6022 followup to PR #377.
6023 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6024
6025 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
6026 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
6027 [Andy Polyakov]
6028
6029 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
6030 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
6031 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
6032 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
6033
6034 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
6035
6036 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
6037 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
6038
6039 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
6040 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
6041 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
6042 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
6043 client and server.
6044 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
6045 PR #377.
6046 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6047
6048 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
6049 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
6050 removed entirely.
6051 [Richard Levitte]
6052
6053 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
6054 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
6055 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
6056 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
6057 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
6058 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
6059 of libcrypto.
6060 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
6061 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
6062 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
6063 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
6064 have to be made anyway).
6065 [Richard Levitte]
6066
6067 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
6068 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
6069 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
6070 [Steve Henson]
6071
6072 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
6073 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
6074 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
6075 [Richard Levitte]
6076
6077 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
6078 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
6079 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
6080
6081 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
6082 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
6083 edit numbers of the version.
6084 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6085
6086 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
6087 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
6088 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
6089
6090 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
6091 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6092
6093 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
6094 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
6095 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6096
6097 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
6098 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6099
6100 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
6101 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6102
6103 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
6104 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6105
6106 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
6107 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6108
6109 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
6110 overflows.
6111 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6112
6113 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
6114 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
6115 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6116
6117 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
6118 representations in a platform independent manner.
6119 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6120
6121 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
6122 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
6123 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6124
6125 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
6126 indents.
6127 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6128
6129 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
6130 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6131
6132 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
6133 full. Fixed.
6134 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6135
6136 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
6137 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
6138 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6139
6140 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
6141 unconditionally).
6142 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6143
6144 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
6145 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6146
6147 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
6148 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6149
6150 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
6151 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6152
6153 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
6154 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6155
6156 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
6157 CBCParameter.
6158 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6159
6160 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
6161 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6162
6163 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
6164 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6165
6166 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
6167 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
6168 exploitable.
6169 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6170
6171 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
6172 the 0.9.6 release series:
6173
6174 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6175 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
6176 (CVE-2002-0657)
6177 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6178
6179 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
6180 [Richard Levitte]
6181
6182 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
6183 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
6184
6185 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
6186 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
6187
6188 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
6189 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
6190 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
6191 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
6192
6193 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
6194 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
6195 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
6196
6197 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
6198 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
6199 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
6200 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6201
6202 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
6203 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
6204 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
6205 some local tweaks:
6206
6207 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
6208 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
6209 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
6210 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
6211 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
6212 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
6213 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
6214 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
6215 done
6216
6217 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
6218 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
6219 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
6220 [Richard Levitte]
6221
6222 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
6223 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
6224 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
6225 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
6226 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
6227
6228 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
6229 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
6230
6231 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
6232 error in AES-CFB decryption.
6233 [Richard Levitte]
6234
6235 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
6236 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
6237 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
6238 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
6239 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
6240 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
6241 [Steve Henson]
6242
6243 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
6244 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
6245 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
6246 [Steve Henson]
6247
6248 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
6249 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
6250 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6251
6252 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
6253 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
6254 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
6255 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
6256 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
6257 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
6258 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
6259 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6260
6261 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
6262 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
6263 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
6264 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
6265 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
6266 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
6267 [Steve Henson]
6268
6269 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
6270 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
6271 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
6272 declaration has been changed from
6273 int (*cb)()
6274 into
6275 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
6276 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
6277 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
6278 has been changed into
6279 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
6280
6281 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
6282 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
6283 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
6284
6285 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
6286 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
6287
6288 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
6289 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
6290 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
6291 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
6292 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
6293 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
6294 always load it have also been added.
6295 [Steve Henson]
6296
6297 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
6298 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
6299 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
6300
6301 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
6302
6303 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
6304 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
6305 because it couldn't be used for anything.
6306
6307 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
6308 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
6309 command line option can be used to specify an
6310 alternative file.
6311 [Steve Henson]
6312
6313 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
6314 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
6315 [Steve Henson]
6316
6317 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
6318 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
6319 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
6320 [Steve Henson]
6321
6322 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
6323 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6324 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
6325 to work with the new engine framework.
6326 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
6327
6328 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
6329 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6330 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
6331 to work with the new engine framework.
6332 [Richard Levitte]
6333
6334 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
6335 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
6336 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
6337
6338 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
6339 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
6340
6341 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
6342 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
6343 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
6344 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
6345 FORMAT_IISSGC.
6346 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6347
6348 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6349 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6350
6351 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
6352 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
6353
6354 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
6355 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
6356 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
6357 [Ben Laurie]
6358
6359 *) Add new functions
6360 ERR_peek_last_error
6361 ERR_peek_last_error_line
6362 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
6363 These are similar to
6364 ERR_peek_error
6365 ERR_peek_error_line
6366 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
6367 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
6368 still in the error queue.
6369 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
6370
6371 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
6372 like:
6373 default_algorithms = ALL
6374 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
6375 [Steve Henson]
6376
6377 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
6378 [Steve Henson]
6379
6380 *) New experimental application configuration code.
6381 [Steve Henson]
6382
6383 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
6384 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
6385 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
6386 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
6387
6388 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
6389 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
6390
6391 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
6392 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
6393
6394 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
6395 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
6396 [Bodo Moeller]
6397
6398 *) New functions/macros
6399
6400 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
6401 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
6402 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
6403 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
6404
6405 to request calling a callback function
6406
6407 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
6408 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
6409
6410 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
6411 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
6412 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
6413 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
6414 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
6415 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
6416 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
6417 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
6418 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
6419 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
6420
6421 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
6422 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
6423 [Bodo Moeller]
6424
6425 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
6426 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
6427 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
6428 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
6429 the configuration scripts.
6430
6431 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
6432 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
6433 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
6434
6435 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
6436 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6437
6438 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
6439 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
6440 when reusing an existing buffer.
6441 [Bodo Moeller]
6442
6443 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
6444 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
6445 [Steve Henson]
6446
6447 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
6448 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
6449 [Ben Laurie]
6450
6451 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
6452 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
6453 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
6454 has the same effect.
6455 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
6456
6457 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
6458 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
6459 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
6460 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
6461 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
6462 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
6463 exception.
6464
6465 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
6466 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
6467 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
6468 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
6469
6470 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
6471 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
6472 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
6473 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
6474
6475 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
6476 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
6477 won't work.
6478
6479 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
6480 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
6481 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
6482 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
6483 default), and then completely removed.
6484 [Richard Levitte]
6485
6486 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
6487 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
6488 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
6489 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
6490 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
6491 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
6492 particular extension is supported.
6493 [Steve Henson]
6494
6495 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
6496 to retain compatibility with existing code.
6497 [Steve Henson]
6498
6499 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
6500 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
6501 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
6502 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
6503 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
6504 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
6505 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
6506 requires the destination to be valid.
6507
6508 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
6509 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
6510 [Steve Henson]
6511
6512 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
6513 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
6514 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
6515 [Bodo Moeller]
6516
6517 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
6518 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
6519
6520 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
6521 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
6522 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
6523 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
6524 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
6525 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
6526 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
6527 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
6528 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
6529 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
6530 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
6531 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
6532 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
6533 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
6534 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
6535 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
6536 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
6537 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
6538 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
6539 the new code.
6540 [Geoff Thorpe]
6541
6542 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
6543 [Steve Henson]
6544
6545 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
6546 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
6547 become part of libeay.num as well.
6548 [Richard Levitte]
6549
6550 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
6551 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
6552 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
6553 false once a handshake has been completed.
6554 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
6555 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
6556 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
6557 client has followed the request.)
6558 [Bodo Moeller]
6559
6560 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
6561 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
6562 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
6563 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
6564
6565 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
6566 more bits available for options that should not be part of
6567 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
6568 [Bodo Moeller]
6569
6570 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
6571 [Steve Henson]
6572
6573 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
6574 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
6575 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
6576 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6577
6578 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
6579 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6580 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6581
6582 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
6583 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
6584 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
6585 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
6586 [Geoff Thorpe]
6587
6588 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
6589 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
6590 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
6591 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
6592 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
6593 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
6594 [Geoff Thorpe]
6595
6596 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
6597 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
6598 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
6599 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
6600 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
6601 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
6602 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
6603 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
6604 [Geoff Thorpe]
6605
6606 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
6607 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
6608 [Geoff Thorpe]
6609
6610 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
6611 [Ben Laurie]
6612
6613 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
6614 md_data void pointer.
6615 [Ben Laurie]
6616
6617 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
6618 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
6619 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
6620 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
6621 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
6622 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
6623 [Ben Laurie]
6624
6625 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
6626 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
6627 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
6628 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
6629 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
6630 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
6631 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
6632 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
6633 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
6634 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
6635 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
6636 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
6637 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
6638 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
6639 rather than letting it slide.
6640
6641 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
6642 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
6643 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
6644 [Geoff Thorpe]
6645
6646 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
6647 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
6648 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
6649 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
6650 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
6651 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
6652 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
6653 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
6654 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
6655 [Geoff Thorpe]
6656
6657 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
6658 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
6659 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
6660 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
6661 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
6662
6663 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
6664 [Geoff Thorpe]
6665
6666 *) Add EVP test program.
6667 [Ben Laurie]
6668
6669 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
6670 [Ben Laurie]
6671
6672 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
6673 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
6674 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
6675 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
6676 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
6677 [Steve Henson]
6678
6679 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
6680 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
6681 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
6682 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
6683 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
6684 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
6685 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
6686
6687 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
6688 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
6689 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
6690 Usage example:
6691
6692 EVP_MD_CTX md;
6693
6694 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
6695 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
6696 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
6697 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
6698 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
6699
6700 [Ben Laurie]
6701
6702 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
6703 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
6704 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
6705 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
6706 anyway): E.g.,
6707
6708 des_key_schedule ks;
6709
6710 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
6711 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
6712
6713 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
6714 [Ben Laurie]
6715
6716 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
6717 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
6718 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
6719 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
6720 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
6721 functions prevents this.
6722 [Steve Henson]
6723
6724 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
6725 [Ben Laurie]
6726
6727 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
6728 correct _ecb suffix.
6729 [Ben Laurie]
6730
6731 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
6732 revocation information is handled using the text based index
6733 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
6734 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
6735 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
6736 [Steve Henson]
6737
6738 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
6739 [Richard Levitte]
6740
6741 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
6742 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
6743 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
6744 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
6745
6746 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
6747 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
6748
6749 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
6750 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6751 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
6752 via Richard Levitte]
6753
6754 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
6755 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
6756 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
6757 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
6758 [Geoff Thorpe]
6759
6760 *) Speed up EVP routines.
6761 Before:

6776 [Ben Laurie]
6777
6778 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
6779 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
6780
6781 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
6782 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
6783 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
6784 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
6785 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
6786 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
6787 [Steve Henson]
6788
6789 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
6790 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
6791 [Richard Levitte]
6792
6793 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
6794 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
6795 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
6796 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
6797
6798 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
6799 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
6800 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
6801 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
6802 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
6803 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
6804 callback.
6805 [Richard Levitte]
6806
6807 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
6808 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
6809 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
6810 and interrupts/cancellations.
6811 [Richard Levitte]
6812
6813 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
6814 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
6815 [Steve Henson]
6816
6817 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
6818 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
6819 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
6820
6821 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
6822 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
6823 kind of callback.
6824 [Richard Levitte]
6825
6826 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
6827 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
6828 than this minimum value is recommended.
6829 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6830
6831 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
6832 that are easily reachable.
6833 [Richard Levitte]
6834
6835 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
6836 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
6837
6838 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
6839
6840 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
6841 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
6842 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
6843 needed for static libraries under Win32.
6844 [Steve Henson]
6845
6846 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
6847 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
6848 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
6849 [Steve Henson]
6850
6851 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
6852 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
6853 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
6854 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
6855 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
6856 internally such as S/MIME.
6857
6858 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
6859 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
6860 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
6861
6862 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
6863 applications.
6864 [Steve Henson]
6865
6866 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
6867 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
6868 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
6869 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
6870
6871 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
6872
6873 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
6874
6875 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
6876 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
6877 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
6878 handling.
6879 [Steve Henson]
6880
6881 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
6882 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
6883 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
6884 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
6885 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
6886 a window system and the like.
6887 [Richard Levitte]
6888
6889 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
6890 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
6891 [Geoff]
6892
6893 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
6894 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
6895 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
6896 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
6897 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
6898 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
6899 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
6900 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
6901 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
6902 ENGINE structure.
6903 [Geoff]
6904
6905 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
6906 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
6907 tag cache.
6908 [Steve Henson]
6909
6910 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
6911 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
6912 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
6913 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
6914 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
6915 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
6916 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
6917 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
6918 [Geoff]
6919
6920 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
6921 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
6922 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
6923 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
6924 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
6925 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
6926 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
6927 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
6928 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
6929 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
6930 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
6931 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
6932 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
6933 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
6934 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
6935 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
6936 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
6937 [Geoff]
6938
6939 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
6940 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
6941 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
6942 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
6943 internal engine_int.h header.
6944 [Geoff]
6945
6946 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
6947 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
6948 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
6949 modify their own ones).
6950 [Geoff]
6951
6952 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
6953 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
6954 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
6955 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
6956 later on via ctrl() commands.
6957 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
6958 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
6959 structural references.
6960 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
6961 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
6962 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
6963 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
6964 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
6965 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
6966 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
6967 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
6968 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
6969 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
6970 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
6971 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
6972 [Geoff]
6973
6974 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
6975 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
6976 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
6977 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
6978 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
6979 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
6980 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
6981 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
6982 [Bodo Moeller]
6983
6984 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
6985 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
6986 [Steve Henson]
6987
6988 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
6989 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
6990 [Steve Henson]
6991
6992 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
6993 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
6994 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
6995 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
6996 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
6997 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
6998 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
6999 [Steve Henson]
7000
7001 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
7002 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
7003 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
7004 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
7005 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
7006
7007 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
7008 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
7009 generator).
7010 [Bodo Moeller]
7011
7012 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
7013
7014 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
7015 operations and provides various method functions that can also
7016 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
7017
7018 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
7019 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
7020
7021 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
7022 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
7023 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
7024
7025 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
7026 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
7027
7028 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
7029 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
7030
7031 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
7032
7033 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
7034 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
7035 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
7036 [Bodo Moeller]
7037
7038 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
7039 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
7040 [Richard Levitte]
7041
7042 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
7043 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
7044 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
7045 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
7046 is 40 of more characters long.
7047 [Steve Henson]
7048
7049 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
7050 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
7051 pointers.
7052 [Steve Henson]
7053
7054 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
7055 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
7056 [Bodo Moeller]
7057
7058 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
7059 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
7060 might.
7061 [Steve Henson]
7062
7063 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
7064
7065 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
7066 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
7067
7068 ASN1 error codes
7069 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
7070 ...
7071 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
7072 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
7073 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
7074 ...
7075 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
7076 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
7077
7078 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
7079 [Bodo Moeller]
7080
7081 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
7082 suffices.
7083 [Bodo Moeller]
7084
7085 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
7086 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
7087 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
7088 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
7089 and
7090 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
7091
7092 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
7093 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
7094
7095 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
7096 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
7097 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
7098 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
7099 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
7100 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
7101
7102 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
7103 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
7104
7105 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
7106 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
7107
7108 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
7109 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
7110
7111 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
7112 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
7113 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
7114 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
7115
7116 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
7117 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
7118
7119 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
7120 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
7121
7122 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
7123 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
7124 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
7125 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
7126 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
7127 [Richard Levitte]
7128
7129 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
7130 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
7131 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
7132 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
7133 [Steve Henson]
7134
7135 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
7136 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
7137 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
7138 trust settings.
7139 [Steve Henson]
7140
7141 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
7142 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
7143 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
7144 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
7145 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
7146 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
7147 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
7148 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
7149 ocsp utility.
7150 [Steve Henson]
7151
7152 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
7153 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
7154 [Steve Henson]
7155
7156 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
7157 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
7158 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
7159 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
7160 [Steve Henson]
7161
7162 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
7163 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
7164 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
7165 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
7166 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
7167 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
7168 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
7169 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
7170 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
7171 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
7172 [Steve Henson]
7173
7174 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
7175 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
7176 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
7177 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
7178 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
7179 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
7180 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
7181 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
7182
7183 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
7184 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
7185 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
7186 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
7187 [Richard Levitte]
7188
7189 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
7190 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
7191 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
7192 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
7193 opensslconf.h.
7194 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
7195 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
7196 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
7197 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
7198 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
7199 what is available.
7200 [Richard Levitte]
7201
7202 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
7203 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
7204 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
7205 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
7206 auto incremented.
7207 [Steve Henson]
7208
7209 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
7210 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
7211 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
7212 [Steve Henson]
7213
7214 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
7215 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
7216 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
7217 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
7218 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
7219 [Steve Henson]
7220
7221 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
7222 [Steve Henson]
7223
7224 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
7225 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
7226 option to ocsp utility.
7227 [Steve Henson]
7228
7229 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
7230 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
7231 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
7232 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
7233 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
7234 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
7235 the request is nonce-less.
7236 [Steve Henson]
7237
7238 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
7239 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
7240 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
7241 [Bodo Moeller]
7242
7243 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
7244 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
7245 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
7246 [Steve Henson]
7247
7248 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
7249 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
7250 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
7251 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
7252 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
7253 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7254
7255 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
7256 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
7257 appear to exist.
7258 [Steve Henson]
7259
7260 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
7261 additional certificates supplied.
7262 [Steve Henson]
7263
7264 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
7265 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
7266 signature against.
7267 [Richard Levitte]
7268
7269 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
7270 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
7271 AES OIDs.
7272
7273 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
7274 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
7275 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
7276 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
7277 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
7278 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
7279 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
7280 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
7281 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
7282
7283 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
7284 request to response.
7285 [Steve Henson]
7286
7287 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
7288 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
7289 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
7290 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
7291 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
7292 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
7293 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
7294 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
7295 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
7296 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
7297 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
7298 [Steve Henson]
7299
7300 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
7301 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
7302 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
7303 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
7304 [Steve Henson]
7305
7306 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
7307 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
7308
7309 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
7310 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
7311 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
7312 [Steve Henson]
7313
7314 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
7315 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
7316 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
7317 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
7318 <support@securenetterm.com>]
7319
7320 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
7321 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
7322 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
7323 [Steve Henson]
7324
7325 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
7326 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
7327 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
7328 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
7329 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
7330 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
7331 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
7332 <support@securenetterm.com>]
7333
7334 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
7335 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
7336 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
7337 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
7338 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
7339 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
7340 [Steve Henson]
7341
7342 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
7343 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
7344 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
7345 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
7346 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
7347 printout format cleaned up.
7348 [Steve Henson]
7349
7350 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
7351 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
7352 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
7353 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
7354 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
7355 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
7356 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
7357 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
7358 [Steve Henson]
7359
7360 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
7361 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
7362 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
7363 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
7364 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
7365 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
7366 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
7367 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
7368 [Steve Henson]
7369
7370 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
7371 extensions from a separate configuration file.
7372 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
7373 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
7374 section to use.
7375 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
7376
7377 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
7378 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
7379 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
7380 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
7381 [Steve Henson]
7382
7383 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
7384 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
7385 the given serial number (according to the index file).
7386 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
7387 in the index file.
7388 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
7389
7390 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
7391 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
7392 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
7393 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
7394
7395 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
7396 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
7397
7398 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
7399 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
7400 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
7401 [Steve Henson]
7402
7403 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
7404 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
7405 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
7406 [Bodo Moeller]
7407
7408 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
7409 file name and line number information in additional arguments
7410 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
7411 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
7412 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
7413 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
7414 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
7415 functions are provided:
7416
7417 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
7418 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
7419 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
7420 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
7421
7422 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
7423 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
7424 extended allocation function is enabled.
7425 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
7426 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
7427 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
7428
7429 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
7430 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
7431 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
7432 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
7433 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
7434 [Geoff Thorpe]
7435
7436 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
7437 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
7438 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
7439 be queried.
7440 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
7441 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
7442 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
7443 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7444
7445 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
7446 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
7447 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
7448 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
7449 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
7450 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
7451 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
7452 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
7453 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
7454 [Richard Levitte]
7455
7456 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
7457 provide utility functions which an application needing
7458 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
7459 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
7460 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
7461
7462 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
7463 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
7464 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
7465 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
7466 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
7467 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
7468 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
7469 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
7470 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
7471
7472 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
7473 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
7474 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
7475 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
7476 [Steve Henson]
7477
7478 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
7479 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
7480 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
7481 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
7482 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
7483 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
7484 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
7485 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
7486 will be added elsewhere.
7487 [Steve Henson]
7488
7489 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
7490 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
7491 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
7492 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
7493 [Steve Henson]
7494
7495 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
7496 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
7497 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
7498 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
7499 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
7500 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
7501 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
7502 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
7503 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
7504 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
7505 to produce the required SET OF.
7506 [Steve Henson]
7507
7508 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
7509 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
7510 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
7511 [Richard Levitte]
7512
7513 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
7514 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
7515 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
7516 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
7517 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
7518 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
7519 [Steve Henson]
7520
7521 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
7522 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
7523 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
7524 [Steve Henson]
7525
7526 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
7527 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
7528 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
7529 [Richard Levitte]
7530
7531 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
7532 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
7533 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
7534 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
7535 code will still work when these eventually go away.
7536 [Steve Henson]
7537
7538 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
7539 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
7540 [Steve Henson]
7541
7542 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
7543 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
7544 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
7545 certificates and CRLs.
7546 [Steve Henson]
7547
7548 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
7549 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
7550 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
7551 [Steve Henson]
7552
7553 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
7554 entries for variables.
7555 [Steve Henson]
7556
7557 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
7558 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
7559 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
7560 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
7561 [Bodo Moeller]
7562
7563 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
7564 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
7565 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
7566 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
7567 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
7568 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
7569 [Bodo Moeller]
7570
7571 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
7572 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
7573
7574 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
7575 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
7576 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
7577 [Steve Henson]
7578
7579 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
7580 print routines.
7581 [Steve Henson]
7582
7583 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
7584 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
7585 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
7586 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
7587 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
7588 order did not reflect the encoded order.
7589 [Steve Henson]
7590
7591 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
7592 [Steve Henson]
7593
7594 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
7595 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
7596 for now but they will eventually go away.
7597 [Steve Henson]
7598
7599 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
7600 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
7601 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
7602 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
7603 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
7604 has also been converted to the new form.
7605 [Steve Henson]
7606
7607 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
7608 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
7609 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
7610 for negative moduli.
7611 [Bodo Moeller]
7612
7613 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
7614 of not touching the result's sign bit.
7615 [Bodo Moeller]
7616
7617 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
7618 set.
7619 [Bodo Moeller]
7620
7621 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
7622 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
7623 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
7624 type-specific callbacks.
7625 [Geoff Thorpe]
7626
7627 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
7628 RFC 2712.
7629 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7630 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
7631
7632 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
7633 in sections depending on the subject.
7634 [Richard Levitte]
7635
7636 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
7637 Windows.
7638 [Richard Levitte]
7639
7640 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
7641 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
7642 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
7643 be handled deterministically).
7644 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
7645
7646 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
7647 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
7648 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
7649 [Bodo Moeller]
7650
7651 *) New function BN_kronecker.
7652 [Bodo Moeller]
7653
7654 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
7655 positive unless both parameters are zero.
7656 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
7657 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
7658 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
7659 [Bodo Moeller]
7660
7661 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
7662 sign of the number in question.
7663
7664 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
7665
7666 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
7667 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
7668 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
7669 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
7670 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
7671 [Bodo Moeller]
7672
7673 *) New function BN_swap.
7674 [Bodo Moeller]
7675
7676 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
7677 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
7678 results on negative inputs.
7679 [Bodo Moeller]
7680
7681 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
7682 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
7683 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
7684 [Bodo Moeller]
7685
7686 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
7687 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
7688 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
7689 and add new functions:
7690
7691 BN_nnmod
7692 BN_mod_sqr
7693 BN_mod_add
7694 BN_mod_add_quick
7695 BN_mod_sub
7696 BN_mod_sub_quick
7697 BN_mod_lshift1
7698 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
7699 BN_mod_lshift
7700 BN_mod_lshift_quick
7701
7702 These functions always generate non-negative results.
7703
7704 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
7705 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
7706
7707 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
7708 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
7709 be reduced modulo m.
7710 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
7711
7712 #if 0
7713 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
7714 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
7715 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
7716
7717 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
7718 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
7719 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
7720 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
7721 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
7722 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
7723 differing sizes.
7724 [Richard Levitte]
7725 #endif
7726
7727 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
7728 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
7729 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
7730 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
7731 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
7732
7733 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
7734 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
7735 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
7736 cause any problems.
7737 [Bodo Moeller]
7738
7739 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
7740 [Richard Levitte]
7741
7742 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
7743 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
7744 [Richard Levitte]
7745
7746 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
7747 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
7748 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
7749 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
7750 time)
7751 [Richard Levitte]
7752
7753 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
7754 [Richard Levitte]
7755
7756 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
7757 [Richard Levitte]
7758
7759 *) Add the following functions:
7760
7761 ENGINE_load_cswift()
7762 ENGINE_load_chil()
7763 ENGINE_load_atalla()
7764 ENGINE_load_nuron()
7765 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
7766
7767 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
7768 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
7769 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
7770 libraries unless it's really needed.
7771
7772 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
7773 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
7774 declarations (they differed!).
7775 [Richard Levitte]
7776
7777 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
7778 [Richard Levitte]
7779
7780 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
7781 [Richard Levitte]
7782
7783 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
7784 [Bodo Moeller]
7785
7786 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
7787 identity, and test if they are actually available.
7788 [Richard Levitte]
7789
7790 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
7791 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
7792 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
7793
7794 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
7795 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
7796 [Richard Levitte]
7797
7798 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
7799 [Richard Levitte]
7800
7801 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
7802 [Richard Levitte]
7803
7804 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
7805 [Ben Laurie]
7806
7807 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
7808 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
7809 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
7810
7811 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
7812 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
7813 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
7814 different shared library filenames on each system.
7815 [Geoff Thorpe]
7816
7817 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
7818 [Richard Levitte]
7819
7820 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
7821 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
7822 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
7823 of two sections.
7824 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
7825
7826 *) NCONF changes.
7827 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
7828 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
7829 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
7830 binary backward compatibility.
7831 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
7832 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
7833 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
7834 LDAP server.
7835 [Richard Levitte]
7836
7837 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
7838 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
7839 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
7840 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
7841 this case.
7842 [Steve Henson]
7843
7844 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
7845 [Ben Laurie]
7846
7847 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
7848 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
7849 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
7850 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
7851 set.
7852 [Steve Henson]
7853
7854 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
7855 [Richard Levitte]
7856
7857 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
7858
7859 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
7860 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
7861 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
7862
7863 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
7864
7865 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
7866
7867 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
7868 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
7869 [Steve Henson]
7870
7871 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
7872
7873 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
7874
7875 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
7876 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
7877
7878 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
7879 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
7880
7881 [Steve Henson]
7882
7883 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
7884 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
7885 specifications.
7886 [Steve Henson]
7887
7888 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
7889 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
7890 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
7891 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
7892
7893 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
7894 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
7895 [Richard Levitte]
7896
7897 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
7898
7899 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
7900 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
7901 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
7902 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
7903 [Bodo Moeller]
7904
7905 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
7906 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
7907 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
7908 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
7909 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7910
7911 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
7912 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
7913 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
7914 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
7915 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
7916 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
7917 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
7918 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
7919 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
7920 [Bodo Moeller]
7921
7922 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
7923
7924 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
7925 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
7926 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
7927 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
7928 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
7929
7930 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
7931 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
7932 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
7933
7934 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
7935
7936 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
7937 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
7938 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
7939 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
7940 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
7941 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
7942 [Geoff Thorpe]
7943
7944 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
7945 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
7946 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
7947 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
7948 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
7949 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7950
7951 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
7952 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
7953 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
7954
7955 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
7956 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
7957 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
7958 EVP_cleanup().
7959 [Richard Levitte]
7960
7961 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
7962 being properly terminated.
7963 [Richard Levitte]
7964
7965 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
7966 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
7967 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
7968 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
7969
7970 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
7971 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
7972 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
7973 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
7974 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
7975 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
7976 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
7977 change.
7978 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
7979
7980 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
7981 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
7982 [Bodo Moeller]
7983
7984 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
7985 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
7986 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
7987 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
7988 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
7989 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
7990 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
7991 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
7992
7993 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
7994 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
7995 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
7996 (see [openssl.org #212]).
7997 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
7998
7999 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
8000 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
8001 [Steve Henson]
8002
8003 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
8004
8005 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
8006 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
8007 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
8008
8009 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
8010
8011 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
8012 and get fix the header length calculation.
8013 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
8014 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
8015 Steve Henson]
8016
8017 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
8018 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
8019 assertions could call abort()).
8020 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
8021
8022 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
8023
8024 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
8025 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
8026 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
8027 supplied buffer.
8028 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
8029
8030 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
8031 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
8032 by the selection routines (PR #130).
8033 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8034
8035 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
8036 [Nils Larsch]
8037
8038 *) New option
8039 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
8040 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
8041 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
8042
8043 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
8044 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
8045 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
8046 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
8047 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
8048 applications.
8049 [Bodo Moeller]
8050
8051 *) Changes in security patch:
8052
8053 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
8054 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
8055 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
8056 F30602-01-2-0537.
8057
8058 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
8059 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
8060 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
8061 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
8062 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
8063
8064 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
8065 happen in practice.
8066 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8067
8068 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
8069 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
8070 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
8071
8072 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
8073 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
8074 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8075
8076 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
8077 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
8078 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8079
8080 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
8081
8082 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
8083 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
8084 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
8085
8086 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
8087 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
8088
8089 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
8090 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
8091 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
8092 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
8093 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
8094 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
8095 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8096
8097 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
8098 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
8099 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
8100 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
8101 [Bodo Moeller]
8102
8103 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
8104 [Bodo Moeller]
8105
8106 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
8107 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
8108 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
8109 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
8110 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
8111 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8112
8113 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
8114 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
8115 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
8116 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
8117 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
8118 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8119
8120 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
8121 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
8122 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
8123 BN_generate_prime().)
8124
8125 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
8126 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
8127 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
8128 better.
8129 [Bodo Moeller]
8130
8131 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
8132 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
8133 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8134
8135 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
8136 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
8137 when using non-blocking I/O.
8138 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
8139
8140 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
8141 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
8142
8143 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
8144 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
8145 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8146
8147 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
8148 configuration for the versions before that.
8149 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
8150
8151 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
8152 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
8153 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
8154 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
8155 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8156
8157 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
8158 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
8159 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
8160 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8161
8162 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
8163 value is 0.
8164 [Richard Levitte]
8165
8166 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
8167 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
8168 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
8169
8170 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
8171 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
8172
8173 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
8174 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
8175 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
8176 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
8177 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
8178 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
8179 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
8180 session cache.
8181
8182 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
8183 using a local variable.
8184 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
8185
8186 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
8187 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
8188 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8189
8190 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
8191 [Richard Levitte]
8192
8193 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
8194 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
8195
8196 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
8197 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
8198 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
8199
8200 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
8201
8202 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
8203 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
8204 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
8205 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
8206 [Bodo Moeller]
8207
8208 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
8209 present.
8210 [Steve Henson]
8211
8212 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
8213 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
8214 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
8215 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
8216 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
8217
8218 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
8219 returns early because it has nothing to do.
8220 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
8221
8222 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8223 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
8224 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
8225
8226 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8227 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
8228 (Use engine 'keyclient')
8229 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
8230
8231 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
8232 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
8233 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
8234 modules).
8235 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
8236
8237 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8238 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
8239 from 0.9.7.
8240 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
8241
8242 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8243 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
8244 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
8245 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
8246
8247 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8248 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
8249 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
8250 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
8251
8252 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
8253 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
8254
8255 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
8256 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
8257 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
8258 [Bodo Moeller]
8259
8260 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
8261 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
8262 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
8263 become invalid.
8264 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
8265
8266 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
8267 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
8268 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
8269 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
8270 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
8271 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
8272 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
8273 [Bodo Moeller]
8274
8275 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
8276 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
8277 one of the SSL handshake functions.
8278 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
8279
8280 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
8281 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
8282 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
8283 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
8284 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
8285 the client will at least see that alert.
8286 [Bodo Moeller]
8287
8288 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
8289 correctly.
8290 [Bodo Moeller]
8291
8292 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
8293 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
8294 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
8295
8296 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
8297 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
8298 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
8299 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
8300 HelloRequest.
8301
8302 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
8303 before just sending a HelloRequest.
8304 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
8305
8306 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
8307 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
8308 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
8309 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
8310 may leak via logfiles.)
8311
8312 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
8313 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
8314 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
8315 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
8316 the legal range.
8317 [Bodo Moeller]
8318
8319 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
8320 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
8321 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8322
8323 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
8324 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
8325 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
8326 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
8327 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
8328 [Bodo Moeller]
8329
8330 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
8331 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
8332
8333 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
8334 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
8335 followed by modular reduction.
8336 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
8337
8338 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
8339 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
8340 [Bodo Moeller]
8341
8342 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
8343 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
8344 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
8345 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
8346 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8347
8348 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
8349 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8350
8351 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
8352 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
8353 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8354
8355 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
8356 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
8357 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
8358 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
8359 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
8360 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
8361 automatically.
8362 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
8363
8364 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
8365 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
8366 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
8367 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
8368 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
8369
8370 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
8371 [Andy Polyakov]
8372
8373 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
8374 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
8375 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
8376 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
8377 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
8378 to allow the necessary settings.
8379 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8380
8381 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
8382 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
8383 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
8384 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
8385 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8386
8387 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
8388 dh->length and always used
8389
8390 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
8391
8392 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
8393 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
8394 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
8395 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
8396 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
8397 dh->length.
8398
8399 So switch back to
8400
8401 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
8402
8403 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
8404 otherwise.
8405 [Bodo Moeller]
8406
8407 *) In
8408
8409 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
8410 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
8411 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
8412 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
8413
8414 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
8415 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
8416 always reject numbers >= n.
8417 [Bodo Moeller]
8418
8419 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
8420 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
8421 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
8422 variable) is not atomic.
8423 [Bodo Moeller]
8424
8425 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
8426 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
8427 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
8428 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
8429
8430 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
8431 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
8432
8433 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
8434 little-endian MIPS.
8435 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
8436
8437 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
8438 [Richard Levitte]
8439
8440 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
8441
8442 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
8443 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
8444 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
8445 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
8446 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
8447 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
8448 to traverse all of 'state'.
8449
8450 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
8451 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
8452 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
8453
8454 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
8455 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
8456
8457 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
8458 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
8459 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
8460 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
8461 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
8462 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
8463 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
8464 further strengthens the PRNG.
8465 [Bodo Moeller]
8466
8467 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
8468 [Andy Polyakov]
8469
8470 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
8471 an error message in this case.
8472 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8473
8474 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
8475 [Steve Henson]
8476
8477 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
8478 positive and less than q.
8479 [Bodo Moeller]
8480
8481 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
8482 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
8483 that itself.
8484 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
8485
8486 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
8487 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
8488 [Bodo Moeller]
8489
8490 *) Fix OAEP check.
8491 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8492
8493 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
8494 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
8495 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
8496 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
8497 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
8498 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
8499 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
8500 paper.)
8501
8502 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
8503 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
8504 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
8505 detect the supposedly ignored error.
8506
8507 Both problems are now fixed.
8508 [Bodo Moeller]
8509
8510 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
8511 (previously it was 1024).
8512 [Bodo Moeller]
8513
8514 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
8515 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
8516 [Steve Henson]
8517
8518 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
8519 [Steve Henson]
8520
8521 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
8522 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
8523 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
8524 [Steve Henson]
8525
8526 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
8527 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
8528 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
8529 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
8530 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
8531 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
8532 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
8533 environment variables.
8534
8535 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
8536 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
8537 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
8538 [Bodo Moeller]
8539
8540 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
8541 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
8542 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
8543 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
8544 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
8545 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
8546 [Bodo Moeller]
8547
8548 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
8549 versions of 'test'.
8550 [Bodo Moeller]
8551
8552 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
8553
8554 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
8555 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
8556
8557 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
8558 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
8559 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
8560 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
8561 CygWin.
8562 [Richard Levitte]
8563
8564 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
8565 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
8566 amount of data available.
8567 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
8568 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8569
8570 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
8571 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
8572 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
8573 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
8574 [Bodo Moeller]
8575
8576 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
8577 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
8578 and UnixWare.
8579 [Richard Levitte]
8580
8581 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
8582 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
8583 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
8584 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
8585 [Ulf Moeller]
8586
8587 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
8588 [Andy Polyakov]
8589
8590 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
8591 [Richard Levitte]
8592
8593 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
8594 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
8595 [Steve Henson]
8596 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8597
8598 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
8599 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
8600 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
8601 (but broken) behaviour.
8602 [Steve Henson]
8603
8604 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
8605 it when found.
8606 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
8607
8608 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
8609 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
8610 [Bodo Moeller]
8611
8612 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
8613 did not exist.
8614 [Bodo Moeller]
8615
8616 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
8617 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
8618
8619 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
8620 [Richard Levitte]
8621
8622 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
8623 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
8624 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
8625
8626 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
8627 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
8628 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
8629 [Steve Henson]
8630
8631 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
8632 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
8633 [Ulf Moeller]
8634
8635 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
8636 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
8637
8638 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
8639
8640 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
8641
8642 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
8643 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
8644 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
8645 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
8646 [Bodo Moeller]
8647
8648 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
8649 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8650
8651 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
8652 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
8653 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
8654
8655 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
8656 was empty.
8657 [Steve Henson]
8658 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8659
8660 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
8661 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
8662 but the code is actually correct.
8663 [Steve Henson]
8664
8665 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
8666 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
8667 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
8668 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
8669 and leaves the highest bit random.
8670 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8671
8672 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
8673 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
8674 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
8675 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
8676 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
8677 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
8678 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
8679 [Bodo Moeller]
8680
8681 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
8682 [Ulf Moeller]
8683
8684 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
8685 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
8686 [Steve Henson]
8687
8688 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
8689 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
8690 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
8691 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
8692 headers.
8693 [Richard Levitte]
8694
8695 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
8696 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
8697 and break the signature.
8698 [Steve Henson]
8699 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8700
8701 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
8702 DH ciphersuites.
8703 [Steve Henson]
8704
8705 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
8706 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
8707 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
8708 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
8709 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
8710 [Bodo Moeller]
8711
8712 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
8713 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
8714
8715 *) ./config script fixes.
8716 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
8717
8718 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
8719 [Bodo Moeller]
8720
8721 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
8722 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
8723 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
8724 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
8725 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
8726
8727 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
8728 call failed, free the DSA structure.
8729 [Bodo Moeller]
8730
8731 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
8732 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
8733 [Steve Henson]
8734
8735 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
8736 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
8737 when writing a 32767 byte record.
8738 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
8739
8740 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
8741 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
8742
8743 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
8744 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
8745 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
8746 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
8747 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
8748
8749 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
8750 [Bodo Moeller]
8751
8752 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
8753 [Ulf Möller]
8754
8755 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
8756 [Ulf Möller]
8757
8758 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
8759 [Bodo Moeller]
8760
8761 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
8762 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
8763 [Bodo Moeller]
8764
8765 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
8766 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
8767 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
8768 result of the server certificate verification.)
8769 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8770
8771 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
8772 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
8773 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
8774 [Bodo Moeller]
8775
8776 *) Fix SSL_peek:
8777 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
8778 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
8779 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
8780 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
8781 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
8782 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
8783 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
8784 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
8785 [Bodo Moeller]
8786
8787 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
8788 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
8789 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
8790 happening the other way round.
8791 [Geoff Thorpe]
8792
8793 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
8794 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
8795 [Bodo Moeller]
8796
8797 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
8798 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
8799 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
8800 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
8801 [Richard Levitte]
8802
8803 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
8804 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
8805
8806 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
8807
8808 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
8809 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
8810 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
8811 that.
8812
8813 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
8814
8815 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
8816
8817 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
8818 static ones.
8819 [Richard Levitte]
8820
8821 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
8822
8823 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
8824 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
8825 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
8826 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
8827 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
8828
8829 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
8830 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
8831 matter what.
8832 [Richard Levitte]
8833
8834 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
8835 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8836
8837 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
8838
8839 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
8840 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
8841 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
8842 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
8843 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
8844 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
8845 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
8846 by the Finished messages.
8847 [Bodo Moeller]
8848
8849 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
8850 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
8851
8852 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
8853 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
8854 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
8855 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
8856 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
8857 appropriately.
8858 [Steve Henson]
8859
8860 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
8861 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
8862 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
8863 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
8864 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
8865 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
8866 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
8867 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
8868 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
8869 together.
8870 [Steve Henson]
8871
8872 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
8873 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
8874 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
8875 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
8876
8877 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
8878 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
8879 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
8880 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
8881 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
8882 the answer.
8883
8884 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
8885 been tested well enough.
8886 [Richard Levitte]
8887
8888 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
8889 it can return incorrect results.
8890 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
8891 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
8892 [Bodo Moeller]
8893
8894 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
8895 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
8896 include zero length content when signing messages.
8897 [Steve Henson]
8898
8899 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
8900 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
8901 [Bodo Möller]
8902
8903 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
8904 [Richard Levitte]
8905
8906 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
8907 wrong sign.
8908 [Ulf Möller]
8909
8910 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
8911 packages. The default package contains applications, application
8912 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
8913 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
8914 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
8915 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
8916 [Richard Levitte]
8917
8918 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
8919 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8920
8921 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
8922 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
8923
8924 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
8925 random number < q in the DSA library.
8926 [Ulf Möller]
8927
8928 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
8929 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
8930 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
8931 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
8932 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
8933 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
8934 just makes things more complicated.)
8935 [Bodo Moeller]
8936
8937 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
8938 from EGD.
8939 [Ben Laurie]
8940
8941 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
8942 work better on such systems.
8943 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8944
8945 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
8946 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
8947 keyid to the certificates aux info.
8948 [Steve Henson]
8949
8950 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
8951 if there was more than one signature.
8952 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
8953
8954 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
8955 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
8956 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
8957 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
8958 [Richard Levitte]
8959
8960 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
8961 rather than always using the current time.
8962 [Steve Henson]
8963
8964 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
8965 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
8966 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
8967 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
8968 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
8969 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
8970
8971 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
8972 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
8973
8974 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
8975
8976 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
8977 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
8978 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
8979 the same hash value.
8980
8981 As a result various functions (which were all internal
8982 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
8983 structure. This will break anything that messed round
8984 with X509_STORE internally.
8985
8986 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
8987 exact match, rather than just subject name.
8988
8989 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
8990 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
8991 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
8992 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
8993 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
8994 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
8995 entirely (maybe later...).
8996
8997 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
8998
8999 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
9000 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
9001 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
9002 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
9003 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
9004 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
9005 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
9006 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
9007
9008 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
9009 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
9010
9011 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
9012 to customise the verify behaviour.
9013 [Steve Henson]
9014
9015 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
9016 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
9017 [Steve Henson]
9018
9019 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
9020 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
9021 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
9022 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
9023 request is improperly encoded.
9024 [Steve Henson]
9025
9026 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
9027 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
9028 BIO_write(b, ...).
9029
9030 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
9031 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
9032
9033 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
9034 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
9035 words set to zero.)
9036 [Bodo Moeller]
9037
9038 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
9039 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
9040 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
9041 [Bodo Moeller]
9042
9043 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
9044 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
9045 BIO/fp routines also added.
9046 [Steve Henson]
9047
9048 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
9049 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
9050
9051 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
9052 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
9053 demos/state_machine.
9054 [Ben Laurie]
9055
9056 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
9057 generation and verification.
9058 [Steve Henson]
9059
9060 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
9061 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
9062 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
9063 encode and decode it manually.
9064 [Steve Henson]
9065
9066 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
9067 compile under VC++.
9068 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
9069
9070 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
9071 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
9072 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
9073 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
9074
9075 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
9076 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
9077 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
9078 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
9079 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
9080 [Steve Henson]
9081
9082 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
9083 [Richard Levitte]
9084
9085 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
9086 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
9087 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
9088
9089 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
9090 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
9091 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
9092 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
9093 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
9094 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
9095 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
9096 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
9097
9098 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
9099 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
9100
9101 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
9102
9103 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
9104 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
9105 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
9106
9107 [Richard Levitte]
9108
9109 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
9110 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
9111 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
9112 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
9113 [Richard Levitte]
9114
9115 *) MD4 implemented.
9116 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
9117
9118 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
9119 [Richard Levitte]
9120
9121 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
9122 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
9123 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
9124 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
9125 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
9126 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
9127 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
9128 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
9129 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
9130 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
9131 short or long names are found.
9132 [Steve Henson]
9133
9134 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
9135 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
9136
9137 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
9138 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
9139 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
9140 version rollback attacks was not effective.
9141
9142 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
9143 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
9144 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
9145 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
9146 [Bodo Moeller]
9147
9148 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
9149 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
9150 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
9151 [Richard Levitte]
9152
9153 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
9154 these print out strings and name structures based on various
9155 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
9156 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
9157 to allow the various flags to be set.
9158 [Steve Henson]
9159
9160 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
9161 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
9162 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
9163 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
9164 dates to be checked.
9165 [Steve Henson]
9166
9167 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
9168 negative public key encodings) on by default,
9169 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
9170 [Steve Henson]
9171
9172 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
9173 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
9174 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
9175 [Steve Henson]
9176
9177 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
9178 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
9179 [Bodo Moeller]
9180
9181 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
9182 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
9183 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
9184 are always statically linked for now, but there are
9185 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
9186 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
9187 [Richard Levitte]
9188
9189 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
9190 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
9191 Random Numbers.
9192 [Ulf Möller]
9193
9194 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
9195 DSA key.
9196 [Steve Henson]
9197
9198 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
9199 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
9200 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
9201 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
9202 form signing output easier to verify.
9203 [Steve Henson]
9204
9205 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
9206 [Steve Henson]
9207
9208 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
9209 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
9210 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
9211 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
9212 are needed because all other string types have virtually
9213 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
9214 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
9215 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
9216 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
9217 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
9218 [Steve Henson]
9219
9220 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
9221
9222 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
9223 the syntax given in objects.README.
9224 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
9225 obj_mac.h.
9226 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
9227 obj_mac.h.
9228
9229 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
9230 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
9231 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
9232 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
9233 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
9234 consistent name changes.
9235 [Richard Levitte]
9236
9237 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
9238 [Bodo Moeller]
9239
9240 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
9241 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
9242 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
9243 environment variable, or the default random state file.
9244 [Richard Levitte]
9245
9246 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
9247 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
9248 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
9249 of safestack.h .
9250 [Steve Henson]
9251
9252 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
9253 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
9254 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
9255 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
9256 [Steve Henson]
9257
9258 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
9259 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
9260 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
9261 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
9262 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
9263 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
9264 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
9265 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
9266 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
9267 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
9268 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
9269 [Steve Henson]
9270
9271 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
9272 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
9273 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
9274 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
9275 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
9276 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
9277 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
9278 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
9279 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
9280 algorithm to openssl-dev.
9281 [Steve Henson]
9282
9283 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
9284 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
9285 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
9286 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
9287
9288 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
9289 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
9290 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
9291 omit any duplicate addresses.
9292 [Steve Henson]
9293
9294 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
9295 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
9296 [Bodo Moeller]
9297
9298 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
9299 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
9300 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
9301 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
9302 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
9303 [Bodo Moeller]
9304
9305 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
9306 software:
9307 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
9308 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
9309 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
9310 Free => OPENSSL_free
9311 [Richard Levitte]
9312
9313 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
9314 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
9315 [Bodo Moeller]
9316
9317 *) CygWin32 support.
9318 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
9319
9320 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
9321 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
9322 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
9323 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
9324 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
9325 approach.
9326 [Geoff Thorpe]
9327
9328 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
9329 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
9330 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
9331 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
9332 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
9333 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
9334 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
9335 [Geoff Thorpe]
9336
9337 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
9338 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
9339 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
9340 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
9341 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
9342 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
9343 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
9344 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
9345 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
9346 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
9347 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
9348 [Bodo Moeller]
9349
9350 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
9351 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
9352 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
9353 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
9354 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
9355
9356 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
9357 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
9358 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
9359 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
9360 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
9361
9362 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
9363 ciphers.
9364
9365 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
9366 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
9367 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
9368 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
9369
9370 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
9371
9372 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
9373 of macros.
9374
9375 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
9376 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
9377 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
9378 flags.
9379
9380 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
9381 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
9382 any installed hardware versions can.
9383 [Steve Henson]
9384
9385 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
9386 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
9387 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
9388 number.
9389 [Bodo Moeller]
9390
9391 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
9392 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
9393 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
9394 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
9395 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
9396
9397 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
9398 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
9399 [Steve Henson]
9400
9401 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
9402 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
9403 [Richard Levitte]
9404
9405 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
9406 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
9407 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
9408 features.
9409 [Steve Henson]
9410
9411 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
9412 [Ulf Möller]
9413
9414 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
9415 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
9416 but no ssl client purpose.
9417 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
9418
9419 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
9420 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
9421 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
9422 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
9423 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
9424 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
9425 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
9426 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
9427 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
9428 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
9429 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
9430 [Steve Henson]
9431
9432 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
9433 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
9434 be obtained from the error queue.
9435 [Bodo Moeller]
9436
9437 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
9438 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
9439 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
9440 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
9441 [Bodo Moeller]
9442
9443 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
9444 [Ulf Möller]
9445
9446 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
9447 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
9448 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
9449 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
9450 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
9451 [Geoff Thorpe]
9452
9453 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
9454 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
9455 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
9456 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
9457 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
9458 [Geoff Thorpe]
9459
9460 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
9461 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
9462 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
9463 may not be NULL.
9464 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
9465
9466 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
9467 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
9468 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
9469 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
9470 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
9471 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
9472 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
9473 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
9474 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
9475 or "the configuration storage API"...
9476
9477 The new configuration file reading functions are:
9478
9479 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
9480 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
9481
9482 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
9483
9484 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
9485
9486 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
9487 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
9488 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
9489 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
9490 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
9491 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
9492 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
9493
9494 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
9495 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
9496 [Richard Levitte]
9497
9498 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
9499 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
9500 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
9501 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
9502 [Bodo Moeller]
9503
9504 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
9505 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
9506 them in a portable way.
9507 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
9508
9509 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
9510
9511 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
9512
9513 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
9514 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
9515
9516 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
9517 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
9518 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
9519 <attili@amaxo.com>]
9520
9521 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
9522 was larger than the MD block size.
9523 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
9524
9525 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
9526 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
9527 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
9528 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
9529 components.
9530 [Steve Henson]
9531
9532 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
9533 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
9534 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
9535
9536 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
9537 discouraged.
9538 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
9539
9540 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
9541 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
9542 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
9543 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
9544 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
9545 Additional arguments are always ignored.
9546
9547 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
9548 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
9549
9550 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
9551 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
9552 [Bodo Moeller]
9553
9554 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
9555 [Bodo Moeller]
9556
9557 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
9558 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
9559 its own key.
9560 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
9561 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
9562 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
9563 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
9564 [Bodo Moeller]
9565
9566 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
9567 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
9568 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
9569 does not suppress any output.
9570 [Richard Levitte]
9571
9572 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
9573 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
9574 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
9575 with all the associated security issues.
9576
9577 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
9578 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
9579 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
9580 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
9581 use the value in the default purpose.
9582 [Steve Henson]
9583
9584 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
9585 and fix a memory leak.
9586 [Steve Henson]
9587
9588 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
9589 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
9590 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
9591 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
9592 [Bodo Moeller]
9593
9594 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
9595 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
9596 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
9597 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
9598 [Bodo Moeller]
9599
9600 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
9601 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
9602 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
9603 [Bodo Moeller]
9604
9605 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
9606 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
9607 [Bodo Moeller]
9608
9609 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
9610 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
9611 which was free.
9612 [Steve Henson]
9613
9614 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
9615 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
9616 [Bodo Moeller]
9617
9618 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
9619 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
9620 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
9621 [Bodo Moeller]
9622
9623 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
9624 number generation fails.
9625 [Bodo Moeller]
9626
9627 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
9628 [Bodo Moeller]
9629
9630 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
9631 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
9632
9633 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
9634 [Ulf Möller]
9635
9636 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
9637 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
9638
9639 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
9640 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
9641
9642 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
9643
9644 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
9645 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
9646 [Steve Henson]
9647
9648 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
9649 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
9650
9651 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
9652 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
9653 [Ulf Möller]
9654
9655 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
9656 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
9657 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
9658 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
9659 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
9660 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
9661
9662 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
9663 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
9664 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
9665 for example.
9666 [Steve Henson]
9667
9668 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
9669 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
9670 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
9671 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
9672 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
9673 counter, some don't.)
9674 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
9675 counters or duplicate objects.
9676 [Steve Henson]
9677
9678 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
9679 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
9680 [Steve Henson]
9681
9682 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
9683 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
9684 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
9685
9686 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
9687 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
9688 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
9689 or -rand.
9690 [Ulf Möller]
9691
9692 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
9693 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
9694 [Steve Henson]
9695
9696 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
9697 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
9698 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
9699 cipher list.
9700 [Steve Henson]
9701
9702 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
9703 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
9704 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
9705 [Steve Henson]
9706
9707 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
9708 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
9709 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
9710 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
9711 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
9712 should work without changes.
9713 [Richard Levitte]
9714
9715 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
9716 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
9717 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
9718 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
9719 must be defined. E.g.,
9720 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
9721 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
9722 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
9723 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
9724
9725 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
9726 record layer.
9727 [Bodo Moeller]
9728
9729 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
9730 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
9731 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
9732 [Steve Henson]
9733
9734 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
9735 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
9736 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
9737 request header lines. Some software needs this.
9738 [Steve Henson]
9739
9740 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
9741 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
9742 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
9743 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
9744 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
9745 is prompted for as usual.
9746 [Steve Henson]
9747
9748 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
9749 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
9750 autodetect the card and use it if present.
9751 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
9752
9753 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
9754 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
9755 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
9756 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
9757 [Steve Henson]
9758
9759 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
9760 [Andy Polyakov]
9761
9762 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
9763 of seed file.
9764 [Steve Henson]
9765
9766 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
9767 [Bodo Moeller]
9768
9769 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
9770 [Steve Henson]
9771
9772 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
9773 bits.
9774 [Ulf Möller]
9775
9776 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
9777 [Ulf Möller]
9778
9779 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
9780 [Andy Polyakov]
9781
9782 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
9783 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
9784 [Ulf Möller]
9785
9786 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
9787 options to produce them.
9788 [Steve Henson]
9789
9790 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
9791 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
9792 [Ulf Möller]
9793
9794 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
9795 for p == 0.
9796 [Ulf Möller]
9797
9798 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
9799 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
9800 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
9801 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
9802 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
9803 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
9804 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
9805 [Steve Henson]
9806
9807 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
9808 [Steve Henson]
9809
9810 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
9811 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
9812 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
9813 [Bodo Moeller]
9814
9815 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
9816 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
9817
9818 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
9819 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
9820 [Ulf Möller]
9821
9822 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
9823 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
9824 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
9825 has already seen).
9826 [Bodo Moeller]
9827
9828 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
9829 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
9830
9831 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
9832 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
9833 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
9834 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
9835 generation becomes much faster.
9836
9837 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
9838 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
9839 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
9840 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
9841 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
9842 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
9843 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
9844 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
9845 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
9846 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
9847 [Bodo Moeller]
9848
9849 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
9850 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
9851 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
9852 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
9853 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
9854 trial division stage.
9855 [Bodo Moeller]
9856
9857 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
9858 as ASN1_TIME.
9859 [Steve Henson]
9860
9861 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
9862 [Steve Henson]
9863
9864 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
9865 [Ulf Möller]
9866
9867 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
9868 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
9869 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
9870 the comments.
9871 [Ulf Möller]
9872
9873 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
9874 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
9875 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
9876 [Bodo Moeller]
9877
9878 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
9879 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
9880 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
9881 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9882
9883 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
9884 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
9885 [Steve Henson]
9886
9887 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
9888 [Ulf Möller]
9889
9890 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
9891 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
9892 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
9893 Rabin-Miller iterations.
9894 [Ulf Möller]
9895
9896 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
9897 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
9898 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
9899 [Ulf Möller]
9900
9901 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
9902 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
9903 (instead of parameters) in future.
9904 [Steve Henson]
9905
9906 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
9907 when a new cipher list is set.
9908 [Steve Henson]
9909
9910 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
9911 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
9912 wrong.
9913
9914 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
9915 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
9916 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
9917
9918 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
9919 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
9920 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
9921 an error is flagged.
9922
9923 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
9924 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
9925 the readability was also increased :-)
9926 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9927
9928 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
9929 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
9930 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
9931 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
9932 as the root CA.
9933 [Steve Henson]
9934
9935 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
9936 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
9937 [Steve Henson]
9938
9939 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
9940 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
9941 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
9942 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
9943 instead.
9944
9945 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
9946 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
9947 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
9948 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
9949 because they handle more complex structures.)
9950 [Steve Henson]
9951
9952 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
9953 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
9954 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
9955 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9956
9957 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
9958 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
9959 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
9960 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
9961 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
9962 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
9963 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
9964 [Ulf Möller]
9965
9966 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
9967 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
9968 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
9969 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
9970 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
9971 [Bodo Moeller]
9972
9973 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
9974 [Bodo Moeller]
9975
9976 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
9977 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
9978 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
9979 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
9980 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
9981 to use this.
9982
9983 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
9984 code.
9985 [Steve Henson]
9986
9987 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
9988 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
9989 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
9990 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
9991 [Steve Henson]
9992
9993 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
9994 [Ulf Möller]
9995
9996 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
9997 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
9998 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
9999 international characters are used.
10000
10001 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
10002 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
10003 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
10004 in ASN1 order.
10005 [Steve Henson]
10006
10007 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
10008 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
10009 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
10010 request.
10011
10012 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
10013 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
10014 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
10015 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
10016 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
10017 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
10018
10019 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
10020 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
10021 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
10022 be handled by the string table functions.
10023
10024 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
10025 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
10026 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
10027 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
10028 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
10029 types at all.
10030 [Steve Henson]
10031
10032 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
10033 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
10034 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
10035 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
10036 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
10037
10038 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
10039 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
10040 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
10041 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
10042 [Bodo Moeller]
10043
10044 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
10045 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
10046 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
10047 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
10048 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
10049 SHA1.
10050 [Andy Polyakov]
10051
10052 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
10053 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
10054 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
10055 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
10056 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
10057 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
10058 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
10059 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
10060
10061 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
10062 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
10063 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
10064 [Steve Henson]
10065
10066 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
10067 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
10068 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
10069 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
10070 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
10071 support to pkcs8 application.
10072 [Steve Henson]
10073
10074 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
10075 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
10076 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
10077 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
10078 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
10079 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
10080 [Bodo Moeller]
10081
10082 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
10083 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
10084 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
10085 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
10086 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
10087 consistency.
10088 [Bodo Moeller]
10089
10090 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
10091 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
10092 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
10093 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
10094 example.
10095 [Steve Henson]
10096
10097 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
10098 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
10099 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
10100 and any application specific purposes.
10101
10102 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
10103 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
10104 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
10105 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
10106 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
10107 if the certificate is self signed.
10108 [Steve Henson]
10109
10110 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
10111 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
10112 [Steve Henson]
10113
10114 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
10115 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
10116 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
10117 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
10118 [Steve Henson]
10119
10120 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
10121 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
10122 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
10123 Update documentation.
10124 [Steve Henson]
10125
10126 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
10127 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
10128 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
10129 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
10130 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
10131 [Steve Henson]
10132
10133 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
10134 for details.
10135 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
10136
10137 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
10138 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
10139 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
10140 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
10141 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
10142 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
10143 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
10144 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
10145 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
10146 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
10147
10148 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
10149
10150 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
10151 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
10152 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
10153 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
10154 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
10155
10156 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
10157 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
10158 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
10159 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
10160 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
10161 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
10162 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
10163 request additional information:
10164 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
10165 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
10166
10167 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
10168 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
10169 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
10170 options.
10171
10172 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
10173 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
10174
10175 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
10176 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
10177 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
10178
10179 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
10180 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
10181
10182 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
10183 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
10184 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
10185 algorithm.
10186 [Steve Henson]
10187
10188 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
10189 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
10190 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
10191
10192 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
10193 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
10194 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
10195 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
10196 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
10197 included in OpenSSL.
10198 [Steve Henson]
10199
10200 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
10201 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
10202 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
10203 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
10204 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
10205 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
10206 [Bodo Moeller]
10207
10208 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
10209 PKCS12 structure.
10210 [Steve Henson]
10211
10212 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
10213 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
10214 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
10215 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
10216 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
10217 structure.
10218 [Steve Henson]
10219
10220 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
10221 need initialising.
10222 [Steve Henson]
10223
10224 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
10225 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
10226 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
10227 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
10228 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
10229 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
10230 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
10231 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
10232 be maintained manually.
10233
10234 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
10235 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
10236 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
10237 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
10238 work because people forget to call this function]
10239 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
10240 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
10241 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
10242 [Steve Henson]
10243
10244 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
10245 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
10246 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
10247 should be discouraged from doing it.
10248 [Ben Laurie]
10249
10250 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
10251 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
10252 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
10253 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
10254 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
10255 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
10256 [Steve Henson]
10257
10258 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
10259 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
10260 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
10261
10262 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
10263 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
10264 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
10265
10266 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
10267 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
10268 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
10269 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
10270 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
10271 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
10272
10273 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
10274 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
10275 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
10276
10277 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
10278 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
10279 and vice versa.
10280
10281 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
10282 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
10283 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
10284 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
10285 [Steve Henson]
10286
10287 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
10288 [Steve Henson]
10289
10290 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
10291 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
10292 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
10293 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
10294 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
10295 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
10296 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
10297 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
10298 keys so we should be OK.
10299
10300 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
10301 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
10302 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
10303 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
10304 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
10305 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
10306 stay in the name of compatibility.
10307
10308 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
10309 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
10310 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
10311
10312 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
10313 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
10314 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
10315 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
10316 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
10317 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
10318 supplied key).
10319 [Steve Henson]
10320
10321 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
10322 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
10323 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
10324 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
10325 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
10326 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
10327 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
10328 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
10329 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
10330 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
10331 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
10332 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
10333 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
10334 [Steve Henson]
10335
10336 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
10337 [Steve Henson]
10338
10339 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
10340 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
10341 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
10342 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
10343 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
10344 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
10345 single self signed certificate. This means that:
10346 openssl verify ss.pem
10347 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
10348 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
10349 is OK.
10350 [Steve Henson]
10351
10352 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
10353 (and add it to external session representation).
10354 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
10355 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
10356 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
10357 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
10358 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
10359 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
10360 security holes.
10361 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
10362
10363 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
10364 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
10365 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
10366 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
10367
10368 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
10369 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
10370 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
10371 [Steve Henson]
10372
10373 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
10374 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
10375 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
10376 code.
10377 [Steve Henson]
10378
10379 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
10380 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
10381 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
10382
10383 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
10384 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
10385 certificate auxiliary information.
10386 [Steve Henson]
10387
10388 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
10389 the 'enc' command.
10390 [Steve Henson]
10391
10392 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
10393 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
10394 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
10395 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
10396 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
10397 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
10398 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
10399 [Richard Levitte]
10400
10401 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
10402 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
10403 [Steve Henson]
10404
10405 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
10406 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
10407 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
10408 manpages and fix a few bugs.
10409 [Steve Henson]
10410
10411 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
10412 [Steve Henson]
10413
10414 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
10415 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
10416 [Steve Henson]
10417
10418 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
10419 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
10420 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
10421 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
10422 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
10423 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
10424 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
10425 using the new 'x509' options.
10426
10427 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
10428 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
10429 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
10430 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
10431 for all purposes.
10432 [Steve Henson]
10433
10434 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
10435 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
10436 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
10437 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
10438 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
10439 [Mark Cox]
10440
10441 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
10442 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
10443 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
10444 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
10445 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
10446 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
10447 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
10448 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
10449 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
10450 the key length and effective key length are equal.
10451 [Steve Henson]
10452
10453 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
10454 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
10455 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
10456 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
10457 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
10458 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
10459 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
10460 [Steve Henson]
10461
10462 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
10463 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
10464 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
10465 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
10466 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
10467 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
10468 openssl.cnf for more info.
10469 [Steve Henson]
10470
10471 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
10472 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
10473 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
10474 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
10475 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
10476 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
10477 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
10478 md should be large enough anyway.
10479 [Bodo Moeller]
10480
10481 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
10482 for handling the random seed file.
10483
10484 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
10485 ca,
10486 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
10487 s_client,
10488 s_server,
10489 x509 (when signing).
10490 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
10491 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
10492 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
10493
10494 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
10495 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
10496 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
10497 that support '-rand'.
10498 [Bodo Moeller]
10499
10500 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
10501 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
10502 [Bodo Moeller]
10503
10504 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
10505 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
10506 [Bill Perry]
10507
10508 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
10509 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
10510 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
10511 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
10512 is suitable.
10513 [Steve Henson]
10514
10515 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
10516 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
10517 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
10518 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
10519 [Steve Henson]
10520
10521 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
10522 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
10523 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
10524 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
10525 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
10526 print out all the purposes.
10527 [Steve Henson]
10528
10529 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
10530 functions.
10531 [Steve Henson]
10532
10533 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
10534 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
10535 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
10536 single function call.
10537 [Steve Henson]
10538
10539 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
10540 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
10541 [Andy Polyakov]
10542
10543 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
10544 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
10545 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
10546 [Steve Henson]
10547
10548 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
10549 when producing the local key id.
10550 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10551
10552 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
10553 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
10554 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
10555 "server.pem".
10556 [Steve Henson]
10557
10558 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
10559 a public key to be input or output. For example:
10560 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
10561 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
10562 [Steve Henson]
10563
10564 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
10565 in the message. This was handled by allowing
10566 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
10567 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
10568
10569 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
10570 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
10571 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
10572 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10573
10574 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
10575 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
10576 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
10577 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
10578 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
10579 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
10580 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
10581 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
10582 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
10583 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
10584 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
10585 trivial: move one line.
10586 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
10587
10588 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
10589 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
10590 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
10591 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
10592 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
10593 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
10594 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
10595 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
10596 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
10597 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
10598 with an event loop for example.
10599 [Steve Henson]
10600
10601 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
10602 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
10603 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
10604 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
10605 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
10606 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
10607 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
10608 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
10609 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
10610 [Steve Henson]
10611
10612 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
10613 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
10614 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
10615 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
10616 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
10617 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
10618 [Steve Henson]
10619
10620 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
10621 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
10622 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
10623 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
10624
10625 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
10626 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
10627 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
10628 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
10629 key generation.
10630 [Steve Henson]
10631
10632 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
10633 (still largely untested)
10634 [Bodo Moeller]
10635
10636 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
10637 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
10638 [Steve Henson]
10639
10640 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
10641 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
10642 [Steve Henson]
10643
10644 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
10645 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
10646 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
10647 [Bodo Moeller]
10648
10649 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
10650 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
10651 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
10652 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
10653 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
10654 [Steve Henson]
10655
10656 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
10657 [Andy Polyakov]
10658
10659 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
10660 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
10661 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
10662 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
10663 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
10664 in ca.
10665 [Steve Henson]
10666
10667 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
10668 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
10669 1.OU="Unit name 1"
10670 2.OU="Unit name 2"
10671 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
10672 [Steve Henson]
10673
10674 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
10675 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
10676 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
10677 are otherwise ignored at present.
10678 [Steve Henson]
10679
10680 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
10681 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
10682 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
10683 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
10684 copied until the next read.
10685 [Steve Henson]
10686
10687 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
10688 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
10689 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
10690 [Steve Henson]
10691
10692 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
10693 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
10694 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
10695 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
10696 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
10697 associated functions.
10698 [Steve Henson]
10699
10700 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
10701 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
10702 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
10703 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
10704 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
10705 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
10706 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
10707 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
10708 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
10709 memory BIOs.
10710 [Steve Henson]
10711
10712 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
10713 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
10714 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
10715 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
10716 [Bodo Moeller]
10717
10718 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
10719 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
10720 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
10721 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
10722 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
10723 functionality.
10724 [Steve Henson]
10725
10726 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
10727 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
10728 under Win32.
10729 [Steve Henson]
10730
10731 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
10732 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
10733 extensions to be obtained and added.
10734 [Steve Henson]
10735
10736 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
10737 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
10738 [Bodo Moeller]
10739
10740 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
10741
10742 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10743 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10744
10745 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
10746 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
10747
10748 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
10749 program.
10750 [Steve Henson]
10751
10752 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
10753 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
10754 DH parameters contain its length).
10755
10756 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
10757 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
10758 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
10759 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
10760 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
10761 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
10762 utter importance to use
10763 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
10764 or
10765 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
10766 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
10767 attacks may become possible!
10768 [Bodo Moeller]
10769
10770 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
10771 [Bodo Moeller]
10772
10773 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
10774 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
10775 [Steve Henson]
10776
10777 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
10778 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
10779 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
10780 or long name.
10781 [Steve Henson]
10782
10783 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
10784 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
10785 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
10786 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
10787 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
10788 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
10789 private key operations.
10790 [Steve Henson]
10791
10792 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
10793 [Andy Polyakov]
10794
10795 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
10796 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
10797 to
10798 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
10799 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
10800 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
10801 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
10802 the password callback is called.
10803 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
10804
10805 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
10806
10807 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
10808 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
10809 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
10810 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
10811 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
10812 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
10813 this will work.
10814
10815 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
10816 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
10817 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
10818 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
10819 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
10820 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
10821 [Bodo Moeller]
10822
10823 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
10824 [Andy Polyakov]
10825
10826 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
10827 delete an unused file.
10828 [Ulf Möller]
10829
10830 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
10831 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
10832 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
10833 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
10834 [Steve Henson]
10835
10836 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
10837 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
10838 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
10839 of an error.
10840 [Bodo Moeller]
10841
10842 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
10843 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
10844 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
10845
10846 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
10847 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
10848 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
10849 comparison" warnings.
10850 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
10851 [Steve Henson]
10852
10853 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
10854 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
10855 derived keys are printed to stderr.
10856 [Steve Henson]
10857
10858 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
10859 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
10860
10861 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
10862 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
10863
10864 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
10865 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
10866 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
10867
10868 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
10869 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
10870 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
10871 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
10872 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
10873 this bug.
10874 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
10875
10876 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
10877 The interface is as follows:
10878 Applications can use
10879 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
10880 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
10881 "off" is now the default.
10882 The library internally uses
10883 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
10884 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
10885 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
10886
10887 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
10888 even the default) are now avoided.
10889
10890 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
10891 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
10892 than just having a counter.
10893
10894 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
10895
10896 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
10897 extensions.
10898 [Bodo Moeller]
10899
10900 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
10901 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
10902 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
10903 Initial "mode" flags are:
10904
10905 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
10906 a single record has been written.
10907 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
10908 retries use the same buffer location.
10909 (But all of the contents must be
10910 copied!)
10911 [Bodo Moeller]
10912
10913 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
10914 worked.
10915
10916 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
10917 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
10918
10919 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
10920 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
10921 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
10922 [Steve Henson]
10923
10924 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
10925 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
10926 test programs.
10927 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
10928
10929 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
10930 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
10931 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
10932 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
10933 point to the end.
10934 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
10935 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
10936
10937 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
10938 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
10939 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
10940 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
10941 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
10942 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
10943 [Steve Henson]
10944
10945 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
10946 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
10947 necessary function names.
10948 [Steve Henson]
10949
10950 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
10951 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
10952 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
10953 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
10954 [Bodo Moeller]
10955
10956 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
10957 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
10958 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
10959 [Steve Henson]
10960
10961 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
10962 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
10963 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
10964 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
10965 such programs?)
10966 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
10967 need locks.
10968 [Bodo Moeller]
10969
10970 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
10971 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
10972 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
10973 [Bodo Moeller]
10974
10975 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
10976 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
10977 appropriate.
10978 [Bodo Moeller]
10979
10980 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
10981 for the encoded length.
10982 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
10983
10984 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
10985 [Steve Henson]
10986
10987 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
10988 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
10989 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
10990 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
10991 [Steve Henson]
10992
10993 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
10994 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
10995 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10996
10997 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
10998 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
10999 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
11000 unusual formatting.
11001 [Steve Henson]
11002
11003 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
11004 to use the new extension code.
11005 [Steve Henson]
11006
11007 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
11008 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
11009 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
11010 constant.
11011 [Steve Henson]
11012
11013 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
11014 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
11015 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
11016 [Bodo Moeller]
11017
11018 #if 0
11019 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
11020 [Ben Laurie]
11021 #else
11022 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
11023 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
11024 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
11025 #endif
11026
11027 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
11028 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
11029 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
11030 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
11031 [Ben Laurie]
11032
11033 *) DES library cleanups.
11034 [Ulf Möller]
11035
11036 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
11037 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
11038 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
11039 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
11040 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
11041 of v2.0.
11042 [Steve Henson]
11043
11044 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
11045 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
11046 [Bodo Moeller]
11047
11048 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
11049 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
11050 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
11051 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
11052 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
11053 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
11054 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
11055 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
11056 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
11057 [Steve Henson]
11058
11059 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
11060 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
11061 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
11062 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
11063 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
11064 value doesn't matter.
11065 [Steve Henson]
11066
11067 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
11068 support mutable.
11069 [Ben Laurie]
11070
11071 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
11072 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
11073 "linux-sparc" configuration.
11074 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
11075
11076 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
11077 [Ulf Möller]
11078
11079 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
11080 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
11081 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
11082
11083 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
11084 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
11085
11086 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
11087 [Ben Laurie]
11088
11089 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
11090 [Ben Laurie]
11091
11092 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
11093 [Ben Laurie]
11094
11095 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
11096 [Bodo Moeller]
11097
11098
11099 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
11100
11101 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
11102
11103 *) Updated some demos.
11104 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
11105
11106 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
11107 [Wu Zhigang]
11108
11109 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
11110 [Steve Henson]
11111
11112 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
11113 [Steve Henson]
11114
11115 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
11116 instead of using a fixed path.
11117 [Bodo Moeller]
11118
11119 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
11120 [Andy Polyakov]
11121
11122 *) Improvements for VMS support.
11123 [Richard Levitte]
11124
11125
11126 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
11127
11128 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
11129 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
11130 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11131
11132 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
11133 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
11134 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
11135 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
11136 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
11137 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
11138 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
11139 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
11140 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
11141 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
11142 [Steve Henson]
11143
11144 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
11145 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
11146 [Steve Henson]
11147
11148 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
11149 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
11150 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
11151 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
11152 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
11153
11154 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
11155 [Bodo Moeller]
11156
11157 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
11158 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
11159 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
11160 [Steve Henson]
11161
11162 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
11163 [Ben Laurie]
11164
11165 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
11166 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
11167 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
11168 key elements as negative integers.
11169 [Steve Henson]
11170
11171 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
11172 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11173
11174 *) VMS support.
11175 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
11176
11177 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
11178 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
11179 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
11180 [Steve Henson]
11181
11182 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
11183 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
11184 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
11185 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
11186 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
11187 [Bodo Moeller]
11188
11189 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
11190 [Ulf Möller]
11191
11192 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
11193 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
11194 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
11195 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11196
11197 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
11198 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
11199 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
11200
11201 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
11202 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
11203 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
11204 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
11205 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
11206 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
11207 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
11208 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
11209 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
11210
11211 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
11212 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
11213 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
11214 does not influence s as it used to.
11215
11216 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
11217 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
11218 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
11219 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
11220 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
11221 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
11222 [Bodo Moeller]
11223
11224 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
11225 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
11226 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
11227 key type.
11228 [Steve Henson]
11229
11230 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
11231 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
11232 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
11233 and 'x509').
11234 [Steve Henson]
11235
11236 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
11237 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
11238 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
11239 extension option.
11240 [Steve Henson]
11241
11242 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
11243 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
11244 [Ben Laurie]
11245
11246 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
11247 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
11248
11249 *) Support Mingw32.
11250 [Ulf Möller]
11251
11252 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
11253 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11254
11255 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
11256 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11257
11258 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
11259 [Ulf Möller]
11260
11261 *) Update HPUX configuration.
11262 [Anonymous]
11263
11264 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
11265 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11266
11267 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
11268 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
11269 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
11270 DER-encoded.)
11271 [Bodo Moeller]
11272
11273 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
11274 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
11275 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
11276 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
11277 now it really counts the depth.
11278 [Bodo Moeller]
11279
11280 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
11281 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
11282 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
11283 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
11284 didn't match the private key).
11285
11286 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
11287 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
11288 connection using the SSL_CTX).
11289 [Bodo Moeller]
11290
11291 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
11292 [Ulf Möller]
11293
11294 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
11295 David Harris.
11296 [Bodo Moeller]
11297
11298 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
11299 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
11300 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
11301 [Bodo Moeller]
11302
11303 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
11304 [Bodo Moeller]
11305
11306 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
11307 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
11308 such as /usr/local/bin.
11309 [Bodo Moeller]
11310
11311 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
11312 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
11313
11314 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
11315 [Ulf Möller]
11316
11317 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
11318 extension adding in x509 utility.
11319 [Steve Henson]
11320
11321 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
11322 [Ulf Möller]
11323
11324 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
11325 prototypes.
11326 [Steve Henson]
11327
11328 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
11329 [Ulf Möller]
11330
11331 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
11332 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
11333 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
11334 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
11335 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
11336 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
11337 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
11338 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
11339 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
11340 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
11341 [Steve Henson]
11342
11343 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
11344 [Bodo Moeller]
11345
11346 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
11347 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
11348 [Bodo Moeller]
11349
11350 *) Fix some race conditions.
11351 [Bodo Moeller]
11352
11353 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
11354 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
11355 [Steve Henson]
11356
11357 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
11358 [Ulf Möller]
11359
11360 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
11361 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
11362 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
11363 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
11364
11365 *) Fix lots of warnings.
11366 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11367
11368 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
11369 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
11370 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11371
11372 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
11373 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11374
11375 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
11376 [Ulf Möller]
11377
11378 *) Fix typos in error codes.
11379 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
11380
11381 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
11382 [Ulf Möller]
11383
11384 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
11385 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11386
11387 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
11388 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
11389 [Steve Henson]
11390
11391 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
11392 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
11393 [Ben Laurie]
11394
11395 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
11396 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
11397 [Steve Henson]
11398
11399 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
11400 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
11401 [Steve Henson]
11402
11403 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
11404 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
11405 [Steve Henson]
11406
11407 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
11408 support typesafe stack.
11409 [Steve Henson]
11410
11411 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
11412 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
11413
11414 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
11415 old X509V3 handling code.
11416 [Steve Henson]
11417
11418 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
11419 [Ulf Möller]
11420
11421 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
11422 [Bodo Moeller]
11423
11424 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
11425 [Ben Laurie]
11426
11427 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
11428 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
11429
11430 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
11431 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
11432 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
11433 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
11434 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
11435 [Ben Laurie]
11436
11437 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
11438 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
11439 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
11440 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
11441 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
11442
11443 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
11444 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
11445 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
11446 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11447
11448 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
11449 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
11450 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
11451 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11452
11453 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
11454 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
11455 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
11456 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
11457 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
11458 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
11459 [Bodo Moeller]
11460
11461 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
11462 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
11463 [Bodo Moeller]
11464
11465 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
11466 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
11467 [Ulf Möller]
11468
11469 *) Tweaks to Configure
11470 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
11471
11472 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
11473 yet...
11474 [Steve Henson]
11475
11476 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
11477 [Ulf Möller]
11478
11479 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
11480 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
11481 [Ulf Möller]
11482
11483 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
11484 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
11485 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
11486 [Bodo Moeller]
11487
11488 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
11489 [Bodo Moeller]
11490
11491 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
11492 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
11493 [Steve Henson]
11494
11495 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
11496 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
11497 to library startup routines.
11498 [Steve Henson]
11499
11500 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
11501 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
11502 codes along the way.
11503 [Steve Henson]
11504
11505 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
11506 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
11507 objects to objects.h
11508 [Steve Henson]
11509
11510 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
11511 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
11512 [Steve Henson]
11513
11514 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
11515 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
11516
11517 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
11518 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
11519 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
11520
11521 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
11522 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11523 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11524
11525 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
11526 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
11527 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
11528
11529
11530 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
11531
11532 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
11533 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
11534 [Ben Laurie]
11535
11536 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
11537 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
11538 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
11539 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
11540 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
11541
11542 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
11543 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
11544 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
11545 document.
11546 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11547
11548 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
11549 Malloc, Free.
11550 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
11551
11552 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
11553 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11554
11555 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
11556 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
11557 if someone would make that last step automatic.
11558 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
11559
11560 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
11561 [Ben Laurie]
11562
11563 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
11564 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
11565 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
11566 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
11567 [Steve Henson]
11568
11569 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
11570 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
11571 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
11572 [Steve Henson]
11573
11574 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
11575 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
11576 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
11577 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
11578 installed as `perl').
11579 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11580
11581 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
11582 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11583
11584 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
11585 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
11586 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
11587 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
11588 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
11589 [Steve Henson]
11590
11591 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
11592 [Ben Laurie]
11593
11594 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
11595 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
11596 is horrible: I feel ill....
11597 [Steve Henson]
11598
11599 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
11600 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
11601 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
11602 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
11603 [Steve Henson]
11604
11605 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
11606 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11607
11608 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
11609 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
11610 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
11611 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11612
11613 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
11614 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
11615 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
11616 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
11617 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
11618 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
11619 openssl_bio.xs.
11620 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11621
11622 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
11623 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
11624
11625 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
11626 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
11627
11628 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
11629 [Ben Laurie]
11630
11631 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
11632 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
11633 in CRLs.
11634 [Steve Henson]
11635
11636 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
11637 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
11638 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
11639 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
11640 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
11641 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
11642 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
11643 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
11644 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
11645 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
11646 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11647
11648 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
11649 [Ben Laurie]
11650
11651 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
11652 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
11653 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
11654 for linking it into DSOs.
11655 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11656
11657 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
11658 Fixed.
11659 [Ben Laurie]
11660
11661 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
11662 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
11663 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
11664 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
11665 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
11666 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11667
11668 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
11669 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
11670 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
11671 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
11672 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
11673 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
11674 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11675
11676 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
11677 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
11678 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
11679 encryption.
11680 [Ben Laurie]
11681
11682 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
11683 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
11684 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
11685 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
11686 [Steve Henson]
11687
11688 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
11689 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
11690 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
11691 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
11692 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
11693 field as blank.
11694 [Steve Henson]
11695
11696 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
11697 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
11698 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
11699 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
11700 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11701
11702 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
11703 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
11704 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
11705
11706 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
11707 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
11708
11709 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
11710 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
11711 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
11712 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
11713 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
11714 [Steve Henson]
11715
11716 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
11717 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
11718 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
11719 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
11720 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
11721 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
11722 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
11723 [Ben Laurie]
11724
11725 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
11726 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
11727 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
11728 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
11729 [Ben Laurie]
11730
11731 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
11732 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
11733
11734 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
11735 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
11736 [Steve Henson]
11737
11738 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
11739 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
11740 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
11741 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
11742 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
11743 (e.g. s_server).
11744 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
11745 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
11746 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
11747 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
11748 no way to reconfigure them.
11749 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
11750 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
11751 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
11752 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
11753 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
11754 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11755
11756 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
11757 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
11758 recognized by the users.
11759 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11760
11761 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
11762 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
11763 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
11764 already masked variable.
11765 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11766
11767 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
11768 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11769
11770 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
11771 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
11772 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
11773 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11774
11775 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
11776 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
11777 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11778
11779 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
11780 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
11781 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
11782 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
11783 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
11784 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
11785 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
11786 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
11787 now, too.
11788 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11789
11790 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
11791 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
11792 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11793
11794 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
11795 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
11796 config file.
11797 [Steve Henson]
11798
11799 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
11800 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
11801
11802 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
11803 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
11804 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
11805 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
11806 [Ben Laurie]
11807
11808 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
11809 [Steve Henson]
11810
11811 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
11812 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11813
11814 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
11815 [Ben Laurie]
11816
11817 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
11818 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
11819 [Steve Henson]
11820
11821 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
11822 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
11823 [Steve Henson]
11824
11825 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
11826 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
11827 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
11828 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
11829 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
11830 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
11831 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
11832 Ben Laurie]
11833
11834 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
11835 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11836
11837 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
11838 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
11839 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
11840 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
11841 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11842
11843 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
11844 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
11845 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
11846 [Steve Henson]
11847
11848 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
11849 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
11850 an example.
11851 [Steve Henson]
11852
11853 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
11854 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
11855 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11856
11857 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
11858 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
11859 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
11860 build instructions.
11861 [Steve Henson]
11862
11863 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
11864 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
11865 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
11866 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
11867 [Steve Henson]
11868
11869 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
11870 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
11871 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
11872 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
11873 [Ben Laurie]
11874
11875 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
11876 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
11877 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
11878 so it wasn't spotted.
11879 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
11880
11881 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
11882 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
11883 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
11884 vectors if you have them.
11885 [Ben Laurie]
11886
11887 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
11888 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
11889 [Ben Laurie]
11890
11891 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
11892 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
11893 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
11894 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
11895 If you do a:
11896 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
11897 it will update them.
11898 [Steve Henson]
11899
11900 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
11901 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
11902 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
11903 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
11904 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
11905 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
11906 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
11907 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11908
11909 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
11910 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
11911 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
11912 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
11913 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
11914 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
11915 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
11916 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
11917 the crypto/md/ stuff).
11918 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11919
11920 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
11921 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
11922 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
11923 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
11924 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
11925 [Steve Henson]
11926
11927 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
11928 INTEGER code.
11929 [Steve Henson]
11930
11931 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
11932 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11933
11934 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
11935 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11936
11937 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
11938 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
11939 [Ben Laurie]
11940
11941 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
11942 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
11943
11944 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
11945 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
11946
11947 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
11948 [Steve Henson]
11949
11950 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
11951 few typos.
11952 [Steve Henson]
11953
11954 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
11955 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
11956 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
11957 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11958
11959 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
11960 [Steve Henson]
11961
11962 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
11963 [Steve Henson]
11964
11965 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
11966 [Steve Henson]
11967
11968 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
11969 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
11970 [Steve Henson]
11971
11972 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
11973 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
11974 CA extensions.
11975 [Steve Henson]
11976
11977 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
11978 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
11979 [Steve Henson]
11980
11981 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
11982 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
11983 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
11984 [Steve Henson]
11985
11986 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
11987 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
11988 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
11989 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
11990 properly to be processed.
11991 [Steve Henson]
11992
11993 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
11994 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
11995 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
11996 [Ben Laurie]
11997
11998 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
11999 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
12000
12001 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
12002 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
12003 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
12004 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
12005 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
12006 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
12007 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
12008 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
12009 or delete all the .err files.
12010 [Steve Henson]
12011
12012 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
12013 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
12014 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
12015 to regenerate it if needed.
12016 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
12017 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
12018
12019 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
12020 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12021
12022 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
12023 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
12024 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
12025 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
12026 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
12027 [Steve Henson]
12028
12029 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
12030 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12031
12032 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
12033 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12034
12035 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
12036 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
12037 error, but didn't set one).
12038 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12039
12040 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
12041 [Ben Laurie]
12042
12043 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
12044 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
12045 [Steve Henson]
12046
12047 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
12048 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
12049
12050 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
12051 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
12052 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
12053 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
12054 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
12055 OID is not part of the table.
12056 [Steve Henson]
12057
12058 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
12059 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
12060 [Ben Laurie]
12061
12062 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
12063 [Ben Laurie]
12064
12065 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
12066 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
12067 was "1234").
12068 [Steve Henson]
12069
12070 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
12071 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
12072
12073 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
12074 NULL pointers.
12075 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12076
12077 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
12078 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12079
12080 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
12081 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12082
12083 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
12084 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12085
12086 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
12087 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
12088 [Ben Laurie]
12089
12090 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
12091 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
12092 [Steve Henson]
12093
12094 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
12095 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12096
12097 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
12098 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12099
12100 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
12101 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12102
12103 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
12104 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12105
12106 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
12107 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
12108 unused in the certificate verification process.
12109 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12110
12111 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
12112 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
12113 [Steve Henson]
12114
12115 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
12116 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
12117 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
12118
12119 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
12120 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
12121 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
12122 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
12123 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
12124
12125 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
12126 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
12127 [Steve Henson]
12128
12129 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
12130 [Steve Henson]
12131
12132 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
12133 [Paul Sutton]
12134
12135 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
12136 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
12137
12138 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
12139 [Ben Laurie]
12140
12141 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
12142 [Ben Laurie]
12143
12144 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
12145 [Ben Laurie]
12146
12147 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
12148 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
12149 other error libraries.
12150 [Steve Henson]
12151
12152 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
12153 [Steve Henson]
12154
12155 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
12156 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
12157 be read in.
12158 [Steve Henson]
12159
12160 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
12161 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
12162 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
12163 the new set of documentation files.
12164 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12165
12166 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
12167 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
12168 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
12169 number of arguments.
12170 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
12171
12172 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
12173 [Ben Laurie]
12174
12175 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
12176 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
12177 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12178
12179 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
12180 [Ben Laurie]
12181
12182 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
12183 nextstep
12184 ncr-scde
12185 unixware-2.0
12186 unixware-2.0-pentium
12187 sco5-cc.
12188 [Ben Laurie]
12189
12190 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
12191 before they are needed.
12192 [Ben Laurie]
12193
12194 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
12195 [Ben Laurie]
12196
12197
12198 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
12199
12200 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
12201 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
12202 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12203
12204 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
12205 [Paul Sutton]
12206
12207 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
12208 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
12209 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12210
12211 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
12212 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
12213 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
12214
12215 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
12216 when "ssleay" is still not found.
12217 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12218
12219 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
12220 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
12221
12222 *) Updated the README file.
12223 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12224
12225 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
12226 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
12227 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12228
12229 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
12230 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
12231 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12232
12233 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
12234 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
12235 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
12236 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
12237 o removed obsolete TODO file
12238 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
12239 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12240
12241 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
12242 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
12243 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
12244 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
12245 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
12246 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
12247 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12248
12249 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
12250 [Mark J. Cox]
12251
12252 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
12253 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
12254 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
12255 summer 1998.
12256 [The OpenSSL Project]
12257
12258
12259 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
12260
12261 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
12262 [Eric A. Young]
12263
12264 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
12265 [Eric A. Young]
12266
12267 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
12268 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
12269 [Eric A. Young]
12270
12271 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
12272 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
12273 available).
12274 [Eric A. Young]
12275
12276 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
12277 binary structures
12278 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
12279
12280 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
12281 [Eric A. Young]
12282
12283 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
12284 [Eric A. Young]
12285
12286 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
12287 [Eric A. Young]
12288
12289 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
12290 [Eric A. Young]
12291
12292 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
12293 [Eric A. Young]
12294
12295 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
12296 [Eric A. Young]
12297
12298 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
12299 [Eric A. Young]
12300
12301 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
12302 [Eric A. Young]
12303
12304 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
12305 [Eric A. Young]
12306
12307 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
12308 [Eric A. Young]
12309
12310 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
12311 [Eric A. Young]
12312
12313 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
12314 [Eric A. Young]
12315
12316 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
12317 [Eric A. Young]
12318
12319 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
12320 [Eric A. Young]
12321
12322 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
12323 [Eric A. Young]
12324
12325 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
12326 [Eric A. Young]
12327
12328 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
12329 [Eric A. Young]
12330
12331 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
12332 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
12333 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
12334 [Eric A. Young]
12335
12336 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
12337 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
12338 [Eric A. Young]
12339
12340 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
12341 [Eric A. Young]
12342
12343 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
12344 [Eric A. Young]
12345
12346 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
12347 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
12348 [Eric A. Young]
12349
12350 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
12351 [Eric A. Young]
12352
12353 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
12354 [Eric A. Young]
12355
12356 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
12357 bytes sent in the client random.
12358 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
12359
