5 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
8
9 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
10 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
11 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
12 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
13 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
14 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
15 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
16
17 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
18 (CVE-2014-3513)
19 [OpenSSL team]
20
21 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
22
23 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
24 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
25 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
26 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
27 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
28 attack.
29 (CVE-2014-3567)
30 [Steve Henson]
31
32 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
33
34 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
35 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
36 configured to send them.
37 (CVE-2014-3568)
38 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
39
40 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
41 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
42 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
43 (CVE-2014-3566)
44 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
45
46 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
47 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
48 So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
49 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
50 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
51 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
52 [Andy Polyakov]
53
54 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
55 (other platforms pending).
56 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
57
58 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
59 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
60 [Rob Stradling]
61
62 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
63 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
64 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
65 [Bodo Moeller]
66
67 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
68 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
69 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
70 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
71 [Andy Polyakov]
72
73 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
74 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
75
76 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
77 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
78 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
79 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
80 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
81
82 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
83 [Andy Polyakov]
84
85 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
86 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
87 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
88 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
89
90 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
91 RSAZ.
92 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
93
94 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
95 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
96 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
97 for TLS encrypt.
98
99 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
100 [Andy Polyakov]
101
102 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
103 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
104 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
105 [Steve Henson]
106
107 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
108 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
109 [Steve Henson]
110
111 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
112 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
113 [Steve Henson]
114
115 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
116 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
117 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
118 algorithms and include tests cases.
119 [Steve Henson]
120
121 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
122 structure.
123 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
124
125 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
126 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
127 [Steve Henson]
128
129 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
130 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
131 summary of the connection parameters.
132 [Steve Henson]
133
134 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
135 of connection parameters.
136 [Steve Henson]
137
138 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
139 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
140
141 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
142 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
146 [Steve Henson]
147
148 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
149 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
150 [Steve Henson]
151
152 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
153 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
154 [Steve Henson]
155
156 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
157 certificates.
158 [Steve Henson]
159
160 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
161 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
162 CRLs using the OCSP API.
163 [Steve Henson]
164
165 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
166 [Steve Henson]
167
168 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
169 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
170 [Steve Henson]
171
172 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
173 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
174 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
175 tracing.
176 [Steve Henson]
177
178 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
179 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
180 [Steve Henson]
181
182 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
183 OID NID.
184 [Steve Henson]
185
186 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
187 client to OpenSSL.
188 [Steve Henson]
189
190 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
191 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
192 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
193 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
194 [Steve Henson]
195
196 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
197 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
198 [Steve Henson]
199
200 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
201 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
202 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
203 comparison.
204 [Steve Henson]
205
206 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
207 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
208 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
209 use the certificate.
210 [Steve Henson]
211
212 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
213 [Steve Henson]
214
215 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
216 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
217 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
218 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
219 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
220 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
221 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
222
223 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
224 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
225
226 [Steve Henson]
227
228 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
229 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
230 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
231 [Steve Henson]
232
233 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
234 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
235 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
236 supported signature algorithms.
237 [Steve Henson]
238
239 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
240 [Steve Henson]
241
242 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
243 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
244 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
245 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
246 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
247 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
248 certificate and specify the whole chain.
249 [Steve Henson]
250
251 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
252 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
253 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
254 to have similar checks in it.
255
256 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
257 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
258 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
259 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
260 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
261 [Steve Henson]
262
263 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
264 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
265 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
266 shared signature algorithms.
267 [Steve Henson]
268
269 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
270 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
271 to support them.
272 [Steve Henson]
273
274 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
275 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
276 it couldn't be removed.
277 [Steve Henson]
278
279 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
280 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
281 [Steve Henson]
282
283 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
284 functions. Add manual page.
285 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
286
287 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
288 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
289 a certificate.
290 [Steve Henson]
291
292 *) Fix OCSP checking.
293 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
294
295 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
296 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
297 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
298 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
299 utility) or reject.
300 [Steve Henson]
301
302 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
303 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
304 [Steve Henson]
305
306 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
307 platform support for Linux and Android.
308 [Andy Polyakov]
309
310 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
311 [Andy Polyakov]
312
313 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
314 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
315 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
316 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
317 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
318 [Steve Henson]
319
320 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
321 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
322 the new parameter format automatically.
323 [Steve Henson]
324
325 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
326 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
327 [Steve Henson]
328
329 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
330 [Steve Henson]
331
332 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
333 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
334 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
335 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
336 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
337 [Steve Henson]
338
339 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
340 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
341 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
342 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
343 to set list of supported curves.
344 [Steve Henson]
345
346 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
347 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
348 to print out received values.
349 [Steve Henson]
350
351 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
352 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
353 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
354 [Steve Henson]
355
356 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
357 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
358 [Steve Henson]
359
360 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
361 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
362 [Steve Henson]
363
364 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
365 certificates.
366 [Steve Henson]
367
368 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
369 the certificate.
370 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
371 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
372 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
373
374 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [xx XXX xxxx]
375
376 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
377 ECDH ciphersuites.
378
379 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan for reporting this issue.
380 (CVE-2014-3572)
381 [Steve Henson]
382
383 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
384 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
385
386 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
387 and can vary with the CTX.
388 [Adam Langley]
389
390 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
391
392 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
393 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
394 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
395 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
396 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
397
398 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
399
400 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
401 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
402
403 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
404
405 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
406 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
407 errors for some broken certificates.
408
409 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
410
411 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
412
413 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
414 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
415
416 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
417 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
418 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
419 (negative or with leading zeroes).
420
421 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
422 of the OpenSSL core team.
423
424 (CVE-2014-8275)
425 [Steve Henson]
426
427 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
428 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
429 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
430 sanity and breaks all known clients.
431 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
432
433 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
434 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
435 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
436 [Emilia Käsper]
437
438 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
439 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
440 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
441 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
442 announced in the initial ServerHello.
443
444 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
445 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
446 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
447 [Emilia Käsper]
448
449 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
450
451 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
452
453 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
454 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
455 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
456 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
457 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
458 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
459 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
460
461 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
462 (CVE-2014-3513)
463 [OpenSSL team]
464
465 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
466
467 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
468 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
469 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
470 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
471 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
472 attack.
473 (CVE-2014-3567)
474 [Steve Henson]
475
476 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
477
478 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
479 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
480 configured to send them.
481 (CVE-2014-3568)
482 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
483
484 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
485 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
486 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
487 (CVE-2014-3566)
488 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
489
490 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
491
492 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
493 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
494 DigestInfo structures.
495
496 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
497
498 [Steve Henson]
499
500 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
501
502 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
503 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
504 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
505
506 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
507 Group for discovering this issue.
508 (CVE-2014-3512)
509 [Steve Henson]
510
511 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
512 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
513 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
514 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
515 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
516
517 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
518 researching this issue.
519 (CVE-2014-3511)
520 [David Benjamin]
521
522 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
523 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
524 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
525 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
526
527 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
528 issue.
529 (CVE-2014-3510)
530 [Emilia Käsper]
531
532 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
533 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
534 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
535 (CVE-2014-3507)
536 [Adam Langley]
537
538 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
539 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
540 Denial of Service attack.
541 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
542 (CVE-2014-3506)
543 [Adam Langley]
544
545 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
546 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
547 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
548 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
549 this issue.
550 (CVE-2014-3505)
551 [Adam Langley]
552
553 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
554 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
555 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
556
557 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
558 issue.
559 (CVE-2014-3509)
560 [Gabor Tyukasz]
561
562 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
563 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
564 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
565 Denial of Service attack.
566
567 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
568 discovering and researching this issue.
569 (CVE-2014-5139)
570 [Steve Henson]
571
572 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
573 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
574 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
575 output to the attacker.
576
577 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
578 (CVE-2014-3508)
579 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
580
581 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
582 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
583 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
584 [Bodo Moeller]
585
586 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [xx XXX xxxx]
587
588 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
589
590 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
591 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
592 DigestInfo structures.
593
594 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
595
596 [Steve Henson]
597
598 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
599
600 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
601 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
602 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
603
604 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
605 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
606 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
607
608 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
609 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
610 in a DoS attack.
611
612 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
613 (CVE-2014-0221)
614 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
615
616 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
617 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
618 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
619 code on a vulnerable client or server.
620
621 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
622 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
623
624 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
625 are subject to a denial of service attack.
626
627 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
628 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
629 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
630
631 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
632 compilation flags.
633 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
634
635 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
636 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
637 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
638
639 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
640 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
641
642 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
643
644 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
645 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
646 server.
647
648 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
649 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
650 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
651 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
652
653 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
654 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
655 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
656 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
657
658 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
659 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
660 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
661
662 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
663
664 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
665 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
666 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
667 is at least 512 bytes long.
668
669 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
670
671 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
672
673 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
674 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
675 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
676 (CVE-2013-4353)
677
678 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
679 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
680 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
681 [Steve Henson]
682
683 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
684 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
685 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
686 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
687 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
688 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
689 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
690
691 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
692
693 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
694 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
695 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
696
697 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
698
699 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
700
701 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
702 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
703 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
704
705 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
706 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
707 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
708 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
709 (CVE-2013-0169)
710 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
711
712 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
713 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
714 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
715 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
716 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
717 (CVE-2012-2686)
718 [Adam Langley]
719
720 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
721 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
722 [Steve Henson]
723
724 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
725 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
726
727 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
728 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
729 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
730 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
731 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
732
733 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
734 [Steve Henson]
735
736 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
737 if renegotiating.
738 [Steve Henson]
739
740 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
741
742 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
743 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
744
745 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
746 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
747 (CVE-2012-2333)
748 [Steve Henson]
749
750 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
751 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
752 [Steve Henson]
753
754 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
755 approved.
756 [Steve Henson]
757
758 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
759
760 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
761 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
762 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
763 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
764 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
765 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
766 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
767 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
768 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
769 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
770 [Steve Henson]
771
772 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
773 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
774 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
775 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
776 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
777 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
778 client side.
779 [Andy Polyakov]
780
781 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
782
783 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
784 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
785 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
786
787 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
788 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
789 (CVE-2012-2110)
790 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
791
792 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
793 [Adam Langley]
794
795 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
796 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
797
798 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
799 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
800 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
801 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
802 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
803 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
804 Most broken servers should now work.
805 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
806 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
807 [Steve Henson]
808
809 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
810 [Andy Polyakov]
811
812 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
813
814 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
815 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
816 [Steve Henson]
817
818 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
819 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
820 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
821 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
822 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
823 [Steve Henson]
824
825 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
826 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
827 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
828 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
829 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
830 [Steve Henson]
831
832 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
833 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
834
835 *) Add support for SCTP.
836 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
837
838 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
839 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
840
841 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
842
843 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
844 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
845 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
846 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
847 - s390x: z196 support;
848 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
849
850 [Andy Polyakov]
851
852 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
853 (removal of unnecessary code)
854 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
855
856 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
857 [Eric Rescorla]
858
859 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
860 [Eric Rescorla]
861
862 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
863 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
864 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
865 by Google.
866 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
867
868 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
869 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
870 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
871 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
872 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
873
874 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
875 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
876 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
877
878 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
879 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
880 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
881
882 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
883 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
884 implementations).
885 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
886
887 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
888 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
889 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
890 [Steve Henson]
891
892 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
893 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
894 particular PSS.
895 [Steve Henson]
896
897 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
898 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
899 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
900 [Steve Henson]
901
902 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
903 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
904 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
905 the appropriate parameters.
906 [Steve Henson]
907
908 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
909 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
910 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
911 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
912 against a number of sample certificates.
913 [Steve Henson]
914
915 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
916 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
917
918 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
919 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
920
921 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
922 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
923 parameters r, s.
924 [Steve Henson]
925
926 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
927 RFC3211.
928 [Steve Henson]
929
930 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
931 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
932 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
933 password based CMS).
934 [Steve Henson]
935
936 *) Session-handling fixes:
937 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
938 but also support Session Tickets.
939 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
940 presented a ticket with an expired session.
941 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
942 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
943 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
944 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
945
946 *) Fix PSK session representation.
947 [Bodo Moeller]
948
949 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
950
951 This work was sponsored by Intel.
952 [Andy Polyakov]
953
954 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
955 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
956 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
957 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
958 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
959 [Steve Henson]
960
961 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
962 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
963 [Steve Henson]
964
965 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
966 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
967 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
968 [Steve Henson]
969
970 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
971 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
972 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
973 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
974 [Steve Henson]
975
976 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
977 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
978 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
979 [Steve Henson]
980
981 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
982 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
983
984 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
985 [Steve Henson]
986
987 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
988 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
989 [Steve Henson]
990
991 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
992 [Steve Henson]
993
994 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
995 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
996 [Steve Henson]
997
998 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
999 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
1000 [Steve Henson]
1001
1002 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
1003 [Steve Henson]
1004
1005 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
1006 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
1007 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
1008 [Steve Henson]
1009
1010 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1011 [Steve Henson]
1012
1013 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1014 [Steve Henson]
1015
1016 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
1017 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
1018 [Steve Henson]
1019
1020 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
1021 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
1022 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
1023 [Steve Henson]
1024
1025 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
1026 [Steve Henson]
1027
1028 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
1029 and enable MD5.
1030 [Steve Henson]
1031
1032 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
1033 FIPS modules versions.
1034 [Steve Henson]
1035
1036 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
1037 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
1038 until after the certificate request message is received.
1039 [Steve Henson]
1040
1041 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
1042 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
1043 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
1044 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
1045 [Steve Henson]
1046
1047 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
1048 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
1049 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
1050 support yet and no support for client certificates.
1051 [Steve Henson]
1052
1053 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
1054 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
1055 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
1056 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
1057 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
1058 and version checking.
1059 [Steve Henson]
1060
1061 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
1062 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
1063 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
1064 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
1065 [Steve Henson]
1066
1067 *) Add SRP support.
1068 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1069
1070 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
1071 [Steve Henson]
1072
1073 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
1074 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
1075 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1076
1077 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
1078 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
1079 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
1080 [Steve Henson]
1081
1082 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
1083 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
1084
1085 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
1086 a few changes are required:
1087
1088 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
1089 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
1090 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
1091 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
1092 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
1093 [Steve Henson]
1094
1095 Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
1096
1097 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1098
1099 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1100 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1101 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1102
1103 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1104 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1105 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1106 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1107 (CVE-2013-0169)
1108 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1109
1110 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1111 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1112 [Steve Henson]
1113
1114 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1115 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1116 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1117 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1118 (This is a backport)
1119 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1120
1121 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1122 [Steve Henson]
1123
1124 Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
1125
1126 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
1127 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
1128
1129 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
1130 to fix DoS attack.
1131
1132 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1133 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1134 (CVE-2012-2333)
1135 [Steve Henson]
1136
1137 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1138 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1139 [Steve Henson]
1140
1141 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
1142
1143 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1144 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1145 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1146
1147 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1148 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1149 (CVE-2012-2110)
1150 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1151
1152 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1153
1154 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1155 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1156 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1157 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1158 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1159 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1160 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1161 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1162 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1163 [Steve Henson]
1164
1165 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1166 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1167 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1168 [Steve Henson]
1169
1170 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1171
1172 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1173 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1174 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1175 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1176 [Antonio Martin]
1177
1178 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1179
1180 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1181 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1182 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1183 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1184 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1185 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1186 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1187 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1188 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1189 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1190 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1191 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1192 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1193
1194 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1195 (CVE-2011-4576)
1196 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1197
1198 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1199 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1200 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1201 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1202
1203 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1204 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1205
1206 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1207 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1208 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1209 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1210
1211 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1212 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1213
1214 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1215 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1216
1217 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1218 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1219
1220 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1221 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1222 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1223
1224 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1225 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1226 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1227
1228 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1229 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1230 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1231 the last update always remained unused).
1232 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1233
1234 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1235 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1236
1237 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1238
1239 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1240 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1241 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1242
1243 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1244 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1245 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1246
1247 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1248 [Bodo Moeller]
1249
1250 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1251 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1252 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1253 [Steve Henson]
1254
1255 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1256 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1257
1258 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1259
1260 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1261
1262 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1263
1264 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1265 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1266
1267 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1268 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1269 ambiguous.
1270 [Steve Henson]
1271
1272 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1273
1274 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1275 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1276 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1277 [Steve Henson]
1278
1279 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1280 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1281 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1282 [Ben Laurie]
1283
1284 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1285
1286 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1287 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1288 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1289 [Steve Henson]
1290
1291 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1292 a DLL.
1293 [Steve Henson]
1294
1295 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1296
1297 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1298 (CVE-2010-1633)
1299 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1300
1301 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1302
1303 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1304 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1305 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1306 [Steve Henson]
1307
1308 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1309 [Steve Henson]
1310
1311 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1312 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1313 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1314
1315 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1316 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1317 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1318 [Steve Henson]
1319
1320 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1321 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1322 [Steve Henson]
1323
1324 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1325 some responders need this.
1326 [Steve Henson]
1327
1328 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1329 correctly.
1330 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1331
1332 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1333 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1334 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1335 [Steve Henson]
1336
1337 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1338 [Steve Henson]
1339
1340 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1341 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1342 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1343 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1344 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1345 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1346 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1347 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1348 [Steve Henson]
1349
1350 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1351 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1352 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1353 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1354
1355 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1356 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1357
1358 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1359 be used on C++.
1360 [Steve Henson]
1361
1362 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1363 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1364 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1365 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1366 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1367 attempting to work them out.
1368 [Steve Henson]
1369
1370 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1371 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1372 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1373 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1374 [Steve Henson]
1375
1376 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1377 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1378 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1379 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1380 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1381 [Steve Henson]
1382
1383 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1384 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1385 you can do:
1386
1387 openssl sha256 foo
1388
1389 as well as:
1390
1391 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1392
1393 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1394
1395 [Steve Henson]
1396
1397 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1398 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1399
1400 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1401 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1402
1403 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1404 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1405 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1406 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1407 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1408 [Steve Henson]
1409
1410 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1411 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1412 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1413 [Steve Henson]
1414
1415 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1416 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1417 [Steve Henson]
1418
1419 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1420 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1421
1422 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1423 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1424 [Steve Henson]
1425
1426 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1427 [Ben Laurie]
1428
1429 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1430 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1431 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1432 CONF_VALUE.
1433 [Ben Laurie]
1434
1435 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1436 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1437 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1438 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1439 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1440 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1441 [Steve Henson]
1442
1443 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1444 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1445
1446 This work was sponsored by Google.
1447 [Steve Henson]
1448
1449 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1450 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1451 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1452 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1453 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1454 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1455 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1456 default.
1457
1458 This work was sponsored by Google.
1459 [Steve Henson]
1460
1461 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1462
1463 This work was sponsored by Google.
1464 [Steve Henson]
1465
1466 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1467 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1468 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1469 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1470
1471 This work was sponsored by Google.
1472 [Steve Henson]
1473
1474 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1475 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1476 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1477 CRL functionality in future.
1478
1479 This work was sponsored by Google.
1480 [Steve Henson]
1481
1482 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1483
1484 This work was sponsored by Google.
1485 [Steve Henson]
1486
1487 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1488 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1489
1490 This work was sponsored by Google.
1491 [Steve Henson]
1492
1493 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1494 and URI types are currently supported.
1495
1496 This work was sponsored by Google.
1497 [Steve Henson]
1498
1499 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1500 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1501 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1502 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1503 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1504 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1505 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1506 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1507
1508 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1509 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1510 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1511
1512 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1513 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1514 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1515 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1516
1517 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1518 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1519 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1520 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1521 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1522 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1523 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1524 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1525 of &errno.)
1526 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1527
1528 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1529 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1530 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1531
1532 This work was sponsored by Google.
1533 [Steve Henson]
1534
1535 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1536 [Ben Laurie]
1537
1538 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1539 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1540 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1541 [Ben Laurie]
1542
1543 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1544 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1545 [Nick Mathewson]
1546
1547 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1548 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1549 [Ben Laurie]
1550
1551 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1552 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1553 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1554 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1555 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1556 content types and variants.
1557 [Steve Henson]
1558
1559 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1560 [Steve Henson]
1561
1562 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1563 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1564 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1565 files from the associated perl scripts.
1566 [Steve Henson]
1567
1568 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1569 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1570 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1571
1572 *) s390x assembler pack.
1573 [Andy Polyakov]
1574
1575 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1576 "family."
1577 [Andy Polyakov]
1578
1579 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1580 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1581 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1582 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1583 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1584 to use. For example, specify an option
1585
1586 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1587
1588 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1589 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1590 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1591 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1592 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1593 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1594
1595 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1596 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1597 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1598 return non-zero for success.
1599
1600 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1601 by using
1602
1603 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1604 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1605
1606 where
1607
1608 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1609 void *arg;
1610
1611 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1612 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1613 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1614 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1615 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1616 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1617 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1618 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1619 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1620
1621 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1622 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1623 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1624 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1625 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1626 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1627
1628 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1629 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1630 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1631 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1632 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1633 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1634
1635 [Bodo Moeller]
1636
1637 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1638 MAC.
1639
1640 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1641
1642 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1643 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1644 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1645 supported.
1646
1647 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1648 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1649 SSL_SESSION.
1650
1651 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1652 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1653 with no application modification.
1654
1655 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1656 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1657
1658 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1659 or server extensions to be examined.
1660
1661 This work was sponsored by Google.
1662 [Steve Henson]
1663
1664 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1665 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1666 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1667
1668 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1669 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1670 ciphersuite support.
1671 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1672
1673 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1674 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1675 to output in BER and PEM format.
1676 [Steve Henson]
1677
1678 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1679 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1680 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1681 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1682 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1683 [Steve Henson]
1684
1685 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1686 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1687 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1688 utility.
1689 [Steve Henson]
1690
1691 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1692 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1693 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1694 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1695 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1696 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1697 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1698 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1699 enabled again.
1700
1701 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1702 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1703 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1704 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1705
1706 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1707 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1708 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1709 the default order.
1710 [Bodo Moeller]
1711
1712 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1713 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1714 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1715 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1716 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1717 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1718 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1719 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1720 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1721
1722 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1723 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1724 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1725 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1726 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1727 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1728 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1729 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1730 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1731 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1732 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1733 kinds of kludges.
1734
1735 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1736 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1737 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1738
1739 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1740 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1741 "CAMELLIA256".
1742 [Bodo Moeller]
1743
1744 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1745 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1746 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1747 [Nils Larsch]
1748
1749 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1750 it yet and it is largely untested.
1751 [Steve Henson]
1752
1753 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1754 [Nils Larsch]
1755
1756 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1757 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1758 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1759 [Steve Henson]
1760
1761 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1762 [Andy Polyakov]
1763
1764 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1765 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1766 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1767 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1768 [Steve Henson]
1769
1770 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1771 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1772 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1773 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1774 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1775 [Steve Henson]
1776
1777 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1778 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1779 [Cryptocom]
1780
1781 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1782 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1783 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1784 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1785 [Steve Henson]
1786
1787 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1788 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1789 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1790 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1791 [Steve Henson]
1792
1793 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1794 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1795 [Steve Henson]
1796
1797 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1798 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1799 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1800 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1801 [Steve Henson]
1802
1803 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1804 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1805 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1806 [Steve Henson]
1807
1808 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1809 utility.
1810 [Steve Henson]
1811
1812 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1813 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1814 [Steve Henson]
1815
1816 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1817 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1818 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1819 if necessary.
1820 [Steve Henson]
1821
1822 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1823 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1824 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1825 [Steve Henson]
1826
1827 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1828 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1829 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1830 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1831 [Steve Henson]
1832
1833 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1834 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1835 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1836 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1837 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1838 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1839 [Douglas Stebila]
1840
1841 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1842 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1843 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1844 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1845 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1846
1847 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1848 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1849 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1850 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1851 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1852 protocol).
1853
1854 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1855 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1856 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1857 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1858
1859 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1860 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1861 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1862 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1863 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1864
1865 aECDH - ECDH cert
1866 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1867 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1868
1869 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1870 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1871
1872 [Bodo Moeller]
1873
1874 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1875 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1876 [Steve Henson]
1877
1878 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1879 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1880 [Steve Henson]
1881
1882 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1883 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1884 functional reference processing.
1885 [Steve Henson]
1886
1887 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1888 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1889 process.
1890 [Steve Henson]
1891
1892 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1893 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1894 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1895 [Steve Henson]
1896
1897 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1898 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1899 application to support multiple signers.
1900 [Steve Henson]
1901
1902 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1903 digest MAC.
1904 [Steve Henson]
1905
1906 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1907 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1908 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1909 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1910 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1911 [Steve Henson]
1912
1913 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1914 new API.
1915 [Steve Henson]
1916
1917 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1918 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1919 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1920 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1921 a no op.
1922 [Steve Henson]
1923
1924 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1925 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1926 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1927 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1928 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1929 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1930 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1931 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1932 [Steve Henson]
1933
1934 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1935 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1936 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1937 between digests and public key types.
1938 [Steve Henson]
1939
1940 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1941 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1942 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1943 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1944 [Steve Henson]
1945
1946 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1947 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1948 key ASN1 method.
1949 [Steve Henson]
1950
1951 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1952 [Steve Henson]
1953
1954 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1955 pkeyutl.
1956 [Steve Henson]
1957
1958 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1959 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1960 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1961 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1962 pkey, genpkey.
1963 [Steve Henson]
1964
1965 *) BeOS support.
1966 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1967
1968 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1969 manual pages.
1970 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1971
1972 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1973 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1974 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1975 functionality for RSA.
1976 [Steve Henson]
1977
1978 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1979 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1980 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1981 [Steve Henson]
1982
1983 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1984 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1985 [Steve Henson]
1986
1987 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1988 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1989 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1990 [Steve Henson]
1991
1992 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1993 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1994 [Douglas Stebila]
1995
1996 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1997 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1998 [Steve Henson]
1999
2000 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
2001 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
2002 type.
2003 [Steve Henson]
2004
2005 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
2006 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
2007 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
2008 structure.
2009 [Steve Henson]
2010
2011 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
2012 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
2013 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
2014 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
2015 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
2016 of public and private key structures.
2017 [Steve Henson]
2018
2019 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
2020 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2021 [Douglas Stebila]
2022
2023 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
2024 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
2025 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
2026
2027 New ciphersuites:
2028 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
2029 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
2030
2031 New functions:

2036
2037 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
2038
2039 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
2040 and response verification functionality.
2041 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
2042
2043 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2044 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2045 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2046 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2047 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2048 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2049 server_name extension.
2050
2051 New functions (subject to change):
2052
2053 SSL_get_servername()
2054 SSL_get_servername_type()
2055 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2056
2057 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2058
2059 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2060 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2061 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2062 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2063 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2064
2065 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2066
2067 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2068 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2069 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2070 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2071 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2072 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2073 option.
2074
2075 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
2076
2077 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
2078 [Andy Polyakov]
2079
2080 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
2081 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
2082 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
2083 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
2084 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
2085 [Andy Polyakov]
2086
2087 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
2088 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
2089 macro.
2090 [Bodo Moeller]
2091
2092 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
2093 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
2094 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
2095 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
2096 [Andy Polyakov]
2097
2098 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
2099 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
2100 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
2101 using the maximum available value.
2102 [Steve Henson]
2103
2104 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
2105 in addition to the text details.
2106 [Bodo Moeller]
2107
2108 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2109 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2110 handle several customised structures at all.
2111 [Steve Henson]
2112
2113 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2114 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2115 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2116 [Steve Henson]
2117
2118 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2119 [Steve Henson]
2120
2121 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2122 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2123 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2124 [Steve Henson]
2125
2126 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2127 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2128 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2129 [Nils Larsch]
2130
2131 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2132 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2133 all fields.
2134 [Steve Henson]
2135
2136 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2137 [Steve Henson]
2138
2139 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2140 [NTT]
2141
2142 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
2143
2144 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
2145
2146 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
2147 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
2148 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
2149
2150 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2151 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2152 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
2153 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
2154 (CVE-2013-0169)
2155 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2156
2157 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2158 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2159 [Steve Henson]
2160
2161 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
2162 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
2163 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
2164 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
2165 (This is a backport)
2166 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2167
2168 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2169 [Steve Henson]
2170
2171 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
2172
2173 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
2174 to fix DoS attack.
2175
2176 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2177 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2178 (CVE-2012-2333)
2179 [Steve Henson]
2180
2181 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2182 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2183 [Steve Henson]
2184
2185 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
2186
2187 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
2188 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
2189 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
2190 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
2191 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2192
2193 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
2194
2195 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2196 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2197 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2198
2199 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2200 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2201 (CVE-2012-2110)
2202 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2203
2204 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
2205
2206 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2207 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2208 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2209 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2210 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2211 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2212 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2213 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2214 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2215 [Steve Henson]
2216
2217 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2218 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2219 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2220 [Steve Henson]
2221
2222 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
2223
2224 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2225 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2226 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2227 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2228 [Antonio Martin]
2229
2230 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
2231
2232 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2233 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2234 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2235 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2236 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2237 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2238 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2239 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2240 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2241 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2242 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2243 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2244 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2245
2246 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
2247 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
2248
2249 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2250 (CVE-2011-4576)
2251 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2252
2253 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2254 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2255 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2256 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2257
2258 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2259 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2260 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2261 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2262
2263 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2264 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2265
2266 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2267 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2268
2269 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2270 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2271 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2272
2273 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2274 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2275 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2276
2277 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2278 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2279 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2280 the last update always remained unused).
2281 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2282
2283 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2284 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
2285 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2286
2287 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2288 [Bodo Moeller]
2289
2290 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2291 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2292
2293 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2294
2295 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2296
2297 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
2298
2299 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2300 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2301
2302 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2303 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2304 ambiguous.
2305 [Steve Henson]
2306
2307 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
2308
2309 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2310 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2311 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2312 [Steve Henson]
2313
2314 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2315 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2316 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2317 [Ben Laurie]
2318
2319 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
2320
2321 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2322 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2323 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2324 [Steve Henson]
2325
2326 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
2327 [Steve Henson]
2328
2329 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
2330 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
2331 some broken encodings work correctly.
2332 [Steve Henson]
2333
2334 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
2335 is also one of the inputs.
2336 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2337
2338 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
2339 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
2340 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
2341 etc are non-op.
2342 [Steve Henson]
2343
2344 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
2345
2346 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
2347 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
2348
2349 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
2350 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
2351 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
2352
2353 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
2354 common in certificates and some applications which only call
2355 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
2356 [Steve Henson]
2357
2358 *) VMS fixes:
2359 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
2360 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
2361 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
2362 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
2363
2364 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2365
2366 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2367 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2368 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2369 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2370 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2371 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2372 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2373 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2374
2375 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2376 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2377 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2378
2379 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2380
2381 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2382 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2383
2384 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2385 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2386 [Bodo Moeller]
2387
2388 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2389 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2390 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2391 [Steve Henson]
2392
2393 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2394 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2395 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2396 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2397 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2398 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2399 [Steve Henson]
2400
2401 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2402 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2403 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2404 [Steve Henson]
2405
2406 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2407 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2408 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2409 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2410 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2411 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2412 CVE-2009-4355.
2413 [Steve Henson]
2414
2415 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2416 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2417 [Bodo Moeller]
2418
2419 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2420 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2421 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2422 [Steve Henson]
2423
2424 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2425 [Steve Henson]
2426
2427 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2428 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2429 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2430 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2431 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2432 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2433 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2434 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2435 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2436 [Steve Henson]
2437
2438 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2439 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2440 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2441 [Steve Henson]
2442
2443 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2444 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2445 [Steve Henson]
2446
2447 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2448 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2449 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2450 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2451 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2452 know what you are doing.
2453 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2454
2455 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2456 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2457 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2458 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2459 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2460 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2461 the handshake.
2462 [Steve Henson]
2463
2464 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2465 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2466 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2467 correctly.
2468 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2469
2470 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2471 warnings in other configurations.
2472 [Steve Henson]
2473
2474 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2475 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2476 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2477 systems need.
2478 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2479
2480 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2481 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2482 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2483
2484 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2485 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2486 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2487 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2488 [Steve Henson]
2489
2490 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2491 and restored.
2492 [Steve Henson]
2493
2494 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2495 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2496 clash.
2497 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2498
2499 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2500 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2501 other than a simple chain.
2502 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2503
2504 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2505 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2506 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2507 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2508 [Steve Henson]
2509
2510 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2511 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2512 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2513 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2514 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2515 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2516 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2517 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2518 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2519
2520 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2521 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2522 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2523 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2524 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2525 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2526 (CVE-2009-1377)
2527 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2528
2529 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2530 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2531 [Daniel Mentz]
2532
2533 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2534 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2535
2536 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2537 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2538
2539 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2540
2541 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2542 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2543 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2544 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2545 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2546 you're doing.
2547 [Ben Laurie]
2548
2549 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2550
2551 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2552 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2553 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2554 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2555
2556 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2557 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2558 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2559 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2560
2561 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2562 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2563 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2564 [Steve Henson]
2565
2566 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2567 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2568 level.
2569 [Steve Henson]
2570
2571 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2572 to handle some structures.
2573 [Steve Henson]
2574
2575 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2576 for a '\n'
2577 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2578
2579 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2580 [Matthieu Herrb]
2581
2582 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2583 [Steve Henson]
2584
2585 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2586 [Steve Henson]
2587
2588 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2589 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2590 chosen compiler.
2591 [Ben Laurie]
2592
2593 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2594
2595 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2596 (CVE-2008-5077).
2597 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2598
2599 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2600 [Ben Laurie]
2601
2602 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2603 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2604 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2605 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2606
2607 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2608 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2609
2610 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2611 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2612 [Bodo Moeller]
2613
2614 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2615 s_client and s_server.
2616 [Ben Laurie]
2617
2618 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2619 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2620
2621 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2622 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2623
2624 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2625 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2626 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2627 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2628 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2629 [Bodo Moeller]
2630
2631 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2632
2633 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2634 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2635 [PR #1679]
2636
2637 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2638 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2639 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2640
2641 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2642 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2643 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2644 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2645
2646 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2647 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2648
2649 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2650
2651 *) Various precautionary measures:
2652
2653 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2654
2655 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2656 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2657 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2658
2659 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2660 outside the expected range.
2661
2662 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2663 builds.
2664
2665 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2666
2667 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2668 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2669 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2670
2671 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2672 [Steve Henson]
2673
2674 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2675 [Huang Ying]
2676
2677 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2678
2679 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2680 [Steve Henson]
2681
2682 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2683 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2684 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2685
2686 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2687 [Steve Henson]
2688
2689 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2690 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2691 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2692 files.
2693 [Steve Henson]
2694
2695 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2696
2697 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2698 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2699 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2700 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2701
2702 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2703 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2704 [Joe Orton]
2705
2706 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2707
2708 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2709 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2710 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2711
2712 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2713
2714 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2715 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2716 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2717 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2718 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2719
2720 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2721 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2722 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2723 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2724 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2725 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2726 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2727
2728 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2729
2730 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2731 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2732 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2733 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2734 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2735
2736 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2737 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2738
2739 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2740 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2741 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2742 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2743 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2744
2745 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2746
2747 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2748 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2749 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2750 sets may exist with different names.
2751 [Steve Henson]
2752
2753 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2754 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2755 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2756 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2757 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2758 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2759 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2760 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2761 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2762 implementation.
2763 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2764
2765 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2766 implemention in the following ways:
2767
2768 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2769 hard coded.
2770
2771 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2772 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2773 ignored for embedded content.
2774
2775 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2776 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2777 [Steve Henson]
2778
2779 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2780 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2781 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2782 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2783
2784 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2785 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2786 [Steve Henson]
2787
2788 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2789 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2790 [Steve Henson]
2791
2792 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2793 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2794 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2795 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2796 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2797 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2798 data.
2799 [Steve Henson]
2800
2801 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2802 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2803 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2804
2805 *) Netware support:
2806
2807 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2808 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2809 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2810 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2811 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2812 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2813 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2814 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2815 platform
2816 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2817 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2818 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2819 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2820 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2821 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2822 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2823
2824 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2825 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2826 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2827 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2828 to s_client and s_server.
2829 [Steve Henson]
2830
2831 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2832
2833 *) Fix various bugs:
2834 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2835 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2836 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2837 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2838 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2839
2840 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2841
2842 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2843 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2844 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2845 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2846 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2847 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2848 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2849 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2850 [Andy Polyakov]
2851
2852 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2853 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2854 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2855 Steve Henson]
2856
2857 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2858 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2859 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2860 supported.
2861
2862 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2863 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2864 SSL_SESSION.
2865
2866 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2867 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2868 with no application modification.
2869
2870 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2871 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2872
2873 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2874 or server extensions to be examined.
2875
2876 This work was sponsored by Google.
2877 [Steve Henson]
2878
2879 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2880 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2881 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2882 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2883 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2884 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2885 server_name extension.
2886
2887 New functions (subject to change):
2888
2889 SSL_get_servername()
2890 SSL_get_servername_type()
2891 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2892
2893 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2894
2895 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2896 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2897 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2898 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2899 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2900
2901 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2902
2903 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2904 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2905 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2906 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2907 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2908 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2909 option.
2910
2911 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2912
2913 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2914 [Steve Henson]
2915
2916 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2917 [Andy Polyakov]
2918
2919 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2920 (which previously caused an internal error).
2921 [Bodo Moeller]
2922
2923 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2924 [Ben Laurie]
2925
2926 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2927 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2928
2929 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2930 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2931 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2932
2933 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2934 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2935 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2936 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2937
2938 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2939 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2940 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2941 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2942
2943 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2944 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2945 information. For detailed background information, see
2946 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2947 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2948 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2949 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2950 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2951 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2952 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2953 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2954 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2955 remove a conditional branch.
2956
2957 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2958 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2959 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2960 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2961 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2962 remains as a deprecated alias.
2963
2964 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2965 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2966 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2967 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2968
2969 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2970 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2971 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2972 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2973 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2974 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2975 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2976 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2977
2978 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2979
2980 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2981 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2982 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2983 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2984 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2985 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2986 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2987 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2988 in a different context.
2989 [Bodo Moeller]
2990
2991 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2992 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2993 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2994 [Bodo Moeller]
2995
2996 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2997 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2998 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2999
3000 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
3001
3002 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
3003 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
3004 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3005 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
3006 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
3007 [Victor Duchovni]
3008
3009 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
3010 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
3011 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
3012 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
3013 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
3014 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
3015 [Bodo Moeller]
3016
3017 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3018 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3019 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3020 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3021 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3022 [Bodo Moeller]
3023
3024 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
3025 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
3026
3027 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3028 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3029 Improve header file function name parsing.
3030 [Steve Henson]
3031
3032 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
3033 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
3034 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
3035
3036 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
3037
3038 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3039 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3040 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3041
3042 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3043 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3044
3045 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3046 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3047
3048 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3049 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3050 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3051
3052 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
3053 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
3054 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
3055 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
3056 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
3057 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
3058 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
3059 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
3060 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
3061
3062 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
3063 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
3064 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
3065 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
3066 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
3067
3068 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
3069 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
3070 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
3071 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
3072 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
3073 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
3074 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
3075 multiple values to extend the available space.
3076
3077 [Bodo Moeller]
3078
3079 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
3080
3081 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3082 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3083
3084 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3085 [Ben Laurie]
3086
3087 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3088 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3089 undesirable limitations.
3090 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3091
3092 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3093 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3094 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3095 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3096 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3097 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3098 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3099 [Bodo Moeller]
3100
3101 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3102
3103 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3104 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3105 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3106
3107 The latter two were purportedly from
3108 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3109 appear there.
3110
3111 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3112 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3113 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3114 [Bodo Moeller]
3115
3116 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3117 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3118 [Bodo Moeller]
3119
3120 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3121 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3122 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3123 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3124
3125 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3126 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3127 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3128 [NTT]
3129
3130 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3131 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3132 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3133 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3134 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3135 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3136 [Steve Henson]
3137
3138 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3139
3140 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3141 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3142 [Steve Henson]
3143
3144 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3145 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3146
3147 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3148 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3149 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3150 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3151 [Douglas Stebila]
3152
3153 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3154 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3155 [Steve Henson]
3156
3157 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3158 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3159 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3160 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3161 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3162 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3163 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3164 can't be loaded.
3165 [Steve Henson]
3166
3167 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3168 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3169 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3170 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3171 [Steve Henson]
3172
3173 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3174 under VC++ build system.
3175 [Steve Henson]
3176
3177 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3178 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3179 [Richard Levitte]
3180
3181 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3182
3183 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3184 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3185 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3186 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3187 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3188
3189 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3190 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3191 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3192
3193 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3194 [Steve Henson]
3195
3196 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3197 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3198 [Nils Larsch]
3199
3200 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3201 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3202
3203 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3204 [Nick Mathewson]
3205
3206 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3207 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3208
3209 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3210 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3211 [Steve Henson]
3212
3213 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3214 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3215 smime utility.
3216 [Steve Henson]
3217
3218 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3219
3220 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3221 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3222
3223 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3224 [Richard Levitte]
3225
3226 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3227 key into the same file any more.
3228 [Richard Levitte]
3229
3230 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3231 [Andy Polyakov]
3232
3233 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3234 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3235
3236 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3237 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3238 [Richard Levitte]
3239
3240 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3241 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3242 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3243 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3244 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3245 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3246
3247 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3248 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3249 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3250 [Steve Henson]
3251
3252 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3253 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3254 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3255 - add new function for parameter creation
3256 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3257 BN_BLINDING parameters
3258 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3259 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3260 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3261 threads.
3262 [Nils Larsch]
3263
3264 *) Add support for DTLS.
3265 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3266
3267 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3268 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3269 [Walter Goulet]
3270
3271 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3272 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3273 [Nils Larsch]
3274
3275 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3276 the apps/openssl applications.
3277 [Nils Larsch]
3278
3279 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3280 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3281 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3282 [Ben Laurie]
3283
3284 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3285 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3286
3287 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3288 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3289
3290 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3291 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3292 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3293 avoid this algorithm.)
3294
3295 [Bodo Moeller]
3296
3297 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3298 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3299 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3300 [Richard Levitte]
3301
3302 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3303 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3304 [Andy Polyakov]
3305
3306 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3307 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3308 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3309 pod file:
3310
3311 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3312
3313 The blank line is mandatory.
3314
3315 [Steve Henson]
3316
3317 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3318 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3319 sources.
3320 [Steve Henson]
3321
3322 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3323 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3324
3325 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3326 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3327 to support policy checking and print out.
3328 [Steve Henson]
3329
3330 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3331 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3332 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3333 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3334
3335 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3336 [Geoff Thorpe]
3337
3338 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3339 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3340
3341 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3342 implementation contributed by IBM.
3343 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3344
3345 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3346 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3347 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3348 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3349
3350 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3351 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3352
3353 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3354 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3355 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3356 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3357 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3358 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3359 [Steve Henson]
3360
3361 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3362 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3363 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3364 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3365 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3366 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3367 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3368 [Geoff Thorpe]
3369
3370 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3371 [Steve Henson]
3372
3373 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3374 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3375 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3376 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3377 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3378 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3379 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3380 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3381 [Steve Henson]
3382
3383 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3384 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3385 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3386 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3387 [Steve Henson]
3388
3389 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3390 syntax:
3391
3392 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3393 [Steve Henson]
3394
3395 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3396 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3397 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3398 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3399 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3400 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3401 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3402 [Geoff Thorpe]
3403
3404 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3405 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3406 [Geoff Thorpe]
3407
3408 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3409 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3410 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3411 [Steve Henson]
3412
3413 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3414 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3415 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3416 below).
3417 [Geoff Thorpe]
3418
3419 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3420 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3421 [Richard Levitte]
3422
3423 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3424 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3425 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3426 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3427 [Geoff Thorpe]
3428
3429 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3430 initialised value as BN_new().
3431 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3432
3433 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3434 [Steve Henson]
3435
3436 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3437 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3438 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3439 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3440 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3441 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3442 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3443 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3444 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3445 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3446 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3447 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3448 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3449 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3450 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3451
3452 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3453 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3454 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3455 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3456 [Geoff Thorpe]
3457
3458 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3459 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3460 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3461 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3462 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3463 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3464 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3465 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3466 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3467 [Geoff Thorpe]
3468
3469 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3470 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3471 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3472 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3473 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3474 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3475 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3476 [Geoff Thorpe]
3477
3478 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3479 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3480 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3481 these have been updated also.
3482 [Geoff Thorpe]
3483
3484 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3485 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3486 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3487 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3488 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3489 functions.
3490 [Steve Henson]
3491
3492 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3493 structure of type "other".
3494 [Steve Henson]
3495
3496 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3497 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3498 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3499 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3500 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3501 situation in the script.
3502 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3503
3504 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3505 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3506 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3507 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3508 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3509 used as premaster secret.
3510 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3511
3512 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3513 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3514 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3515
3516 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3517 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3518
3519 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3520 control of the error stack.
3521 [Richard Levitte]
3522
3523 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3524 [Richard Levitte]
3525
3526 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3527 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3528 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3529 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3530 [Richard Levitte]
3531
3532 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3533 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3534 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3535 [Richard Levitte]
3536
3537 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3538 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3539 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3540 a memory area.
3541 [Richard Levitte]
3542
3543 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3544 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3545 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3546 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3547 [Richard Levitte]
3548
3549 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3550 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3551 the following flags are defined:
3552
3553 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3554 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3555 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3556 number.
3557
3558 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3559 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3560 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3561 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3562 returns zero.
3563 [Richard Levitte]
3564
3565 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3566 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3567 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3568 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3569 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3570 [Richard Levitte]
3571
3572 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3573 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3574 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3575 [Richard Levitte]
3576
3577 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3578 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3579 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3580 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3581 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3582 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3583 [Richard Levitte]
3584
3585 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3586 req and dirName.
3587 [Steve Henson]
3588
3589 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3590 [Steve Henson]
3591
3592 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3593 [Steve Henson]
3594
3595 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3596 [Steve Henson]
3597
3598 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3599 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3600 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3601 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3602 default implementation more easily.
3603 [Geoff Thorpe]
3604
3605 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3606 in config files.
3607 [Steve Henson]
3608
3609 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3610 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3611 [Richard Levitte]
3612
3613 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3614 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3615 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3616 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3617
3618 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3619 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3620 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3621 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3622 [Steve Henson]
3623
3624 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3625 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3626 to do it.
3627 [Richard Levitte]
3628
3629 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3630 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3631 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3632 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3633 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3634 scalar * generator).
3635 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3636
3637 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3638 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3639 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3640 correctly.
3641 [Steve Henson]
3642
3643 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3644 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3645 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3646 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3647 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3648 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3649 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3650 linker additions, eg;
3651 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3652 [Geoff Thorpe]
3653
3654 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3655 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3656 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3657 [Geoff Thorpe]
3658
3659 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3660 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3661 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3662 via PR#459)
3663 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3664
3665 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3666 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3667 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3668 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3669 [Geoff Thorpe]
3670
3671 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3672 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3673 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3674 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3675 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3676 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3677 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3678 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3679 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3680 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3681
3682 Example for using the new callback interface:
3683
3684 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3685 void *my_arg = ...;
3686 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3687
3688 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3689
3690 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3691 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3692 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3693 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3694 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3695 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3696 */
3697
3698 [Geoff Thorpe]
3699
3700 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3701 available to TLS with the number defined in
3702 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3703 [Richard Levitte]
3704
3705 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3706 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3707
3708 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3709 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3710 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3711 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3712
3713 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3714 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3715
3716 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3717 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3718 well.
3719 [Richard Levitte]
3720
3721 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3722 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3723 [Richard Levitte]
3724
3725 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3726 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3727 and a macro that behave like
3728 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3729
3730 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3731 [Nils Larsch]
3732
3733 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3734 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3735 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3736 if applicable.
3737 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3738
3739 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3740 [Bodo Moeller]
3741
3742 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3743 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3744 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3745 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3746 directory engines/.
3747 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3748 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3749 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3750 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3751 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3752 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3753 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3754 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3755
3756 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3757 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3758 [Richard Levitte]
3759
3760 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3761 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3762
3763 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3764 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3765 files while avoiding the low level API.
3766
3767 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3768 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3769 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3770 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3771
3772 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3773 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3774 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3775 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3776 instead of the low level API.
3777 [Steve Henson]
3778
3779 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3780 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3781 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3782 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3783 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3784 PKCS#7 code.
3785
3786 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3787 down to the template encoder.
3788 [Steve Henson]
3789
3790 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3791 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3792 [Bodo Moeller]
3793
3794 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3795 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3796 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3797 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3798
3799 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3800 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3801
3802 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3803 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3804
3805 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3806 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3807 [Bodo Moeller]
3808
3809 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3810 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3811 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3812 [Bodo Moeller]
3813
3814 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3815 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3816
3817 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3818 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3819
3820 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3821 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3822 New EC_METHOD:
3823
3824 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3825
3826 New API functions:
3827
3828 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3829 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3830 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3831 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3832 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3833 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3834
3835 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3836 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3837 enable it).
3838
3839 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3840 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3841 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3842 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3843 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3844 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3845 various internal method names.)
3846
3847 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3848 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3849
3850 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3851 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3852
3853 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3854 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3855
3856 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3857 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3858 methods are undefined.
3859
3860 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3861 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3862
3863 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3864 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3865 length of the modulus.
3866
3867 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3868 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3869
3870 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3871 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3872
3873 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3874 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3875
3876 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3877 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3878 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3879
3880 BN_GF2m_add
3881 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3882 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3883 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3884 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3885 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3886 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3887 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3888 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3889 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3890
3891 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3892 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3893
3894 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3895 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3896 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3897 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3898 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3899 where
3900 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3901 This applies to the following functions:
3902
3903 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3904 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3905 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3906 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3907 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3908 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3909 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3910 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3911 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3912 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3913
3914 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3915
3916 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3917 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3918
3919 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3920
3921 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3922 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3923 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3924 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3925 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3926
3927 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3928 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3929
3930 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3931 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3932 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3933
3934 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3935 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3936
3937 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3938 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3939 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3940 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3941 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3942
3943 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3944 functions
3945 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3946 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3947 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3948 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3949 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3950 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3951 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3952 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3953 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3954 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3955 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3956 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3957
3958 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3959 functions
3960 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3961 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3962 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3963 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3964 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3965
3966 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3967 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3968 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3969 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3970
3971 *) Add functions
3972 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3973 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3974 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3975 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3976 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3977 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3978 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3979
3980 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3981 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3982 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3983 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3984 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3985 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3986 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3987 adding different types of curves.
3988 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3989
3990 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3991 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3992 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3993 [Bodo Moeller]
3994
3995 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3996 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3997
3998 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3999 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
4000 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
4001 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4002
4003 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
4004
4005 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
4006 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
4007
4008 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
4009 library. Most notably,
4010 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
4011 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
4012 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
4013 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
4014 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
4015 extracted before the specific public key;
4016 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
4017 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4018
4019 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
4020 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
4021 function
4022 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
4023 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
4024 EC_get_builtin_curves().
4025 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
4026 accessed via
4027 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
4028 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
4029 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
4030
4031 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4032 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4033 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4034 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4035 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4036 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4037 differing sizes.
4038 [Richard Levitte]
4039
4040 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
4041
4042 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
4043 sensitive data.
4044 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
4045
4046 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4047 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4048 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4049 [Bodo Moeller]
4050
4051 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
4052 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4053 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
4054 [Victor Duchovni]
4055
4056 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
4057 [Steve Henson]
4058
4059 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
4060 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
4061 [Steve Henson]
4062
4063 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
4064 run algorithm test programs.
4065 [Steve Henson]
4066
4067 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
4068 [Steve Henson]
4069
4070 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4071 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4072 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4073 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4074 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4075 [Bodo Moeller]
4076
4077 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4078 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4079 [Steve Henson]
4080
4081 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
4082
4083 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4084 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4085 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4086
4087 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4088 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4089
4090 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4091 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4092
4093 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4094 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4095 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4096
4097 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4098 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4099 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4100 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4101 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4102 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4103 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4104 [Bodo Moeller]
4105
4106 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4107
4108 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4109 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4110
4111 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4112 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4113 undesirable limitations.
4114 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4115
4116 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4117
4118 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4119 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4120 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4121
4122 The latter two were purportedly from
4123 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4124 appear there.
4125
4126 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4127 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4128 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4129 [Bodo Moeller]
4130
4131 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4132 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4133 [Bodo Moeller]
4134
4135 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4136
4137 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4138 module in FIPS mode.
4139 [Steve Henson]
4140
4141 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4142 [Steve Henson]
4143
4144 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4145 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4146 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4147 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4148 [Steve Henson]
4149
4150 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4151
4152 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4153 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4154 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4155 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4156 the difference induced by this change.
4157 [Andy Polyakov]
4158
4159 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4160
4161 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4162 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4163 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4164 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4165 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4166
4167 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4168 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4169 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4170
4171 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4172 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4173 [Steve Henson]
4174
4175 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4176 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4177 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4178 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4179 biased k.)
4180 [Bodo Moeller]
4181
4182 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4183 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4184 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4185 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4186 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4187
4188 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4189 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4190 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4191 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4192 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4193 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4194
4195 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4196
4197 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4198 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4199 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4200 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4201 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4202 [Bodo Moeller]
4203
4204 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4205 clients need.
4206 [Steve Henson]
4207
4208 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4209 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4210 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4211 [Steve Henson]
4212
4213 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4214 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4215 structures constant.
4216 [Steve Henson]
4217
4218 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4219
4220 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4221 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4222
4223 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4224 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4225 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4226 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4227 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4228 some needed definitions.
4229 [Steve Henson]
4230
4231 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4232 [Ulf Möller]
4233
4234 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4235 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4236 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4237 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4238 [Richard Levitte]
4239
4240 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4241
4242 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4243 server and client random values. Previously
4244 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4245 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4246
4247 This change has negligible security impact because:
4248
4249 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4250 data.
4251
4252 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4253 handshake.
4254
4255 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4256 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4257 values.
4258
4259 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4260 to our attention.
4261
4262 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4263
4264 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4265 [Ulf Möller]
4266
4267 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4268 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4269 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4270
4271 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4272 [Steve Henson]
4273
4274 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4275 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4276 [Andy Polyakov]
4277
4278 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4279 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4280 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4281
4282 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4283 [Steve Henson]
4284
4285 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4286 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4287 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4288 certificates.
4289 [Steve Henson]
4290
4291 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4292 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4293 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4294 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4295
4296 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4297 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4298 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4299 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4300 been given)
4301 [Richard Levitte]
4302
4303 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4304
4305 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4306 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4307 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4308 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4309 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4310 [Steve Henson]
4311
4312 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4313 [Steve Henson]
4314
4315 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4316 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4317
4318 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4319 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4320 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4321 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4322 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4323 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4324 rather than being initialized to 1.
4325 [Steve Henson]
4326
4327 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4328
4329 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4330 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4331 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4332
4333 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4334 (CVE-2004-0112)
4335 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4336
4337 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4338 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4339 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4340 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4341 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4342 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4343 [Richard Levitte]
4344
4345 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4346 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4347 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4348 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4349 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4350 for these cases.
4351 [Steve Henson]
4352
4353 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4354 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4355 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4356 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4357 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4358 [Steve Henson]
4359
4360 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4361 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4362 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4363 < 0.9.7.
4364 [Steve Henson]
4365
4366 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4367 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4368
4369 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4370 [Steve Henson]
4371
4372 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4373
4374 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4375
4376 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4377 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4378
4379 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4380
4381 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4382 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4383
4384 [Steve Henson]
4385
4386 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4387 exiting on the first error in a request.
4388 [Steve Henson]
4389
4390 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4391 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4392 specifications.
4393 [Steve Henson]
4394
4395 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4396 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4397 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4398 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4399
4400 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4401 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4402 [Richard Levitte]
4403
4404 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4405 blocks during encryption.
4406 [Richard Levitte]
4407
4408 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4409 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4410 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4411 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4412 certain size.
4413 [Steve Henson]
4414
4415 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4416 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4417 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4418 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4419 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4420 parser.
4421 [Steve Henson]
4422
4423 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4424
4425 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4426 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4427 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4428 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4429 [Bodo Moeller]
4430
4431 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4432 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4433 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4434 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4435 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4436
4437 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4438 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4439 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4440 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4441 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4442 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4443 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4444 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4445 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4446 [Bodo Moeller]
4447
4448 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4449 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4450 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4451 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4452 [Geoff Thorpe]
4453
4454 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4455 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4456 [Ulf Moeller]
4457
4458 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4459
4460 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4461 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4462 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4463 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4464 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4465
4466 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4467 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4468 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4469
4470 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4471 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4472 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4473 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4474 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4475
4476 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4477 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4478 used by default when no-err is given.
4479 [Richard Levitte]
4480
4481 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4482 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4483
4484 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4485 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4486 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4487 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4488 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4489
4490 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4491 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4492 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4493 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4494
4495 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4496
4497 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4498
4499 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4500
4501 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4502 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4503 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4504 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4505 root is omitted).
4506 [Steve Henson]
4507
4508 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4509 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4510
4511 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4512 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4513 [Steve Henson]
4514
4515 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4516 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4517 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4518 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4519 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4520
4521 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4522 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4523 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4524 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4525 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4526 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4527 followup to PR #377.
4528 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4529
4530 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4531 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4532 [Andy Polyakov]
4533
4534 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4535 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4536 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4537 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4538
4539 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4540
4541 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4542 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4543
4544 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4545 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4546 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4547 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4548 client and server.
4549 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4550 PR #377.
4551 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4552
4553 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4554 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4555 removed entirely.
4556 [Richard Levitte]
4557
4558 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4559 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4560 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4561 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4562 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4563 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4564 of libcrypto.
4565 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4566 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4567 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4568 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4569 have to be made anyway).
4570 [Richard Levitte]
4571
4572 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4573 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4574 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4575 [Steve Henson]
4576
4577 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4578 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4579 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4580 [Richard Levitte]
4581
4582 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4583 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4584 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4585
4586 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4587 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4588 edit numbers of the version.
4589 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4590
4591 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4592 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4593 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4594
4595 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4596 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4597
4598 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4599 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4600 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4601
4602 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4603 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4604
4605 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4606 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4607
4608 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4609 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4610
4611 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4612 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4613
4614 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4615 overflows.
4616 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4617
4618 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4619 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4620 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4621
4622 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4623 representations in a platform independent manner.
4624 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4625
4626 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4627 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4628 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4629
4630 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4631 indents.
4632 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4633
4634 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4635 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4636
4637 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4638 full. Fixed.
4639 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4640
4641 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4642 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4643 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4644
4645 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4646 unconditionally).
4647 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4648
4649 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4650 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4651
4652 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4653 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4654
4655 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4656 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4657
4658 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4659 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4660
4661 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4662 CBCParameter.
4663 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4664
4665 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4666 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4667
4668 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4669 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4670
4671 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4672 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4673 exploitable.
4674 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4675
4676 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4677 the 0.9.6 release series:
4678
4679 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4680 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4681 (CVE-2002-0657)
4682 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4683
4684 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4685 [Richard Levitte]
4686
4687 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4688 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4689
4690 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4691 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4692
4693 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4694 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4695 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4696 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4697
4698 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4699 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4700 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4701
4702 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4703 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4704 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4705 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4706
4707 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4708 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4709 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4710 some local tweaks:
4711
4712 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4713 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4714 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4715 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4716 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4717 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4718 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4719 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4720 done
4721
4722 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4723 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4724 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4725 [Richard Levitte]
4726
4727 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4728 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4729 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4730 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4731 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4732
4733 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4734 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4735
4736 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4737 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4738 [Richard Levitte]
4739
4740 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4741 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4742 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4743 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4744 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4745 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4746 [Steve Henson]
4747
4748 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4749 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4750 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4751 [Steve Henson]
4752
4753 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4754 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4755 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4756
4757 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4758 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4759 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4760 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4761 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4762 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4763 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4764 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4765
4766 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4767 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4768 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4769 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4770 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4771 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4772 [Steve Henson]
4773
4774 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4775 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4776 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4777 declaration has been changed from
4778 int (*cb)()
4779 into
4780 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4781 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4782 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4783 has been changed into
4784 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4785
4786 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4787 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4788 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4789
4790 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4791 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4792
4793 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4794 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4795 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4796 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4797 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4798 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4799 always load it have also been added.
4800 [Steve Henson]
4801
4802 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4803 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4804 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4805
4806 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4807
4808 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4809 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4810 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4811
4812 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4813 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4814 command line option can be used to specify an
4815 alternative file.
4816 [Steve Henson]
4817
4818 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4819 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4820 [Steve Henson]
4821
4822 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4823 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4824 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4825 [Steve Henson]
4826
4827 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4828 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4829 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4830 to work with the new engine framework.
4831 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4832
4833 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4834 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4835 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4836 to work with the new engine framework.
4837 [Richard Levitte]
4838
4839 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4840 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4841 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4842
4843 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4844 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4845
4846 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4847 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4848 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4849 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4850 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4851 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4852
4853 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4854 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4855
4856 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4857 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4858
4859 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4860 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4861 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4862 [Ben Laurie]
4863
4864 *) Add new functions
4865 ERR_peek_last_error
4866 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4867 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4868 These are similar to
4869 ERR_peek_error
4870 ERR_peek_error_line
4871 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4872 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4873 still in the error queue.
4874 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4875
4876 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4877 like:
4878 default_algorithms = ALL
4879 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4880 [Steve Henson]
4881
4882 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4883 [Steve Henson]
4884
4885 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4886 [Steve Henson]
4887
4888 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4889 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4890 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4891 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4892
4893 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4894 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4895
4896 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4897 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4898
4899 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4900 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4901 [Bodo Moeller]
4902
4903 *) New functions/macros
4904
4905 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4906 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4907 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4908 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4909
4910 to request calling a callback function
4911
4912 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4913 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4914
4915 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4916 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4917 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4918 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4919 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4920 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4921 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4922 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4923 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4924 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4925
4926 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4927 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4928 [Bodo Moeller]
4929
4930 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4931 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4932 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4933 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4934 the configuration scripts.
4935
4936 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4937 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4938 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4939
4940 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4941 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4942
4943 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4944 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4945 when reusing an existing buffer.
4946 [Bodo Moeller]
4947
4948 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4949 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4950 [Steve Henson]
4951
4952 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4953 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4954 [Ben Laurie]
4955
4956 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4957 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4958 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4959 has the same effect.
4960 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4961
4962 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4963 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4964 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4965 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4966 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4967 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4968 exception.
4969
4970 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4971 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4972 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4973 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4974
4975 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4976 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4977 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4978 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4979
4980 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4981 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4982 won't work.
4983
4984 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4985 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4986 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4987 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4988 default), and then completely removed.
4989 [Richard Levitte]
4990
4991 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4992 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4993 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4994 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4995 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4996 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4997 particular extension is supported.
4998 [Steve Henson]
4999
5000 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
5001 to retain compatibility with existing code.
5002 [Steve Henson]
5003
5004 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
5005 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
5006 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
5007 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
5008 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
5009 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
5010 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
5011 requires the destination to be valid.
5012
5013 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
5014 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
5015 [Steve Henson]
5016
5017 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
5018 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
5019 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
5020 [Bodo Moeller]
5021
5022 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
5023 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
5024
5025 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
5026 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
5027 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
5028 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
5029 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
5030 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
5031 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
5032 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
5033 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
5034 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
5035 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
5036 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
5037 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
5038 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
5039 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
5040 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
5041 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
5042 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
5043 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
5044 the new code.
5045 [Geoff Thorpe]
5046
5047 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
5048 [Steve Henson]
5049
5050 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
5051 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
5052 become part of libeay.num as well.
5053 [Richard Levitte]
5054
5055 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
5056 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
5057 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
5058 false once a handshake has been completed.
5059 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
5060 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
5061 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
5062 client has followed the request.)
5063 [Bodo Moeller]
5064
5065 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
5066 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
5067 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
5068 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
5069
5070 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
5071 more bits available for options that should not be part of
5072 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
5073 [Bodo Moeller]
5074
5075 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
5076 [Steve Henson]
5077
5078 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
5079 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
5080 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
5081 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5082
5083 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5084 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5085 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5086
5087 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5088 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5089 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5090 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5091 [Geoff Thorpe]
5092
5093 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5094 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5095 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5096 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5097 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5098 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5099 [Geoff Thorpe]
5100
5101 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5102 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5103 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5104 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5105 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5106 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5107 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5108 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5109 [Geoff Thorpe]
5110
5111 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5112 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5113 [Geoff Thorpe]
5114
5115 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5116 [Ben Laurie]
5117
5118 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5119 md_data void pointer.
5120 [Ben Laurie]
5121
5122 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5123 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5124 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5125 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5126 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5127 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5128 [Ben Laurie]
5129
5130 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5131 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5132 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5133 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5134 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5135 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5136 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5137 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5138 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5139 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5140 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5141 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5142 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5143 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5144 rather than letting it slide.
5145
5146 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5147 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5148 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5149 [Geoff Thorpe]
5150
5151 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5152 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5153 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5154 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5155 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5156 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5157 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5158 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5159 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5160 [Geoff Thorpe]
5161
5162 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5163 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5164 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5165 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5166 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5167
5168 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5169 [Geoff Thorpe]
5170
5171 *) Add EVP test program.
5172 [Ben Laurie]
5173
5174 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5175 [Ben Laurie]
5176
5177 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5178 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5179 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5180 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5181 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5182 [Steve Henson]
5183
5184 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5185 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5186 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5187 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5188 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5189 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5190 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5191
5192 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5193 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5194 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5195 Usage example:
5196
5197 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5198
5199 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5200 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5201 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5202 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5203 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5204
5205 [Ben Laurie]
5206
5207 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5208 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5209 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5210 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5211 anyway): E.g.,
5212
5213 des_key_schedule ks;
5214
5215 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5216 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5217
5218 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5219 [Ben Laurie]
5220
5221 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5222 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5223 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5224 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5225 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5226 functions prevents this.
5227 [Steve Henson]
5228
5229 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5230 [Ben Laurie]
5231
5232 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5233 correct _ecb suffix.
5234 [Ben Laurie]
5235
5236 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5237 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5238 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5239 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5240 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5241 [Steve Henson]
5242
5243 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5244 [Richard Levitte]
5245
5246 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5247 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5248 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5249 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5250
5251 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5252 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5253
5254 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5255 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5256 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5257 via Richard Levitte]
5258
5259 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5260 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5261 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5262 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5263 [Geoff Thorpe]
5264
5265 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5266 Before:
5267 encrypt
5268 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes

5281 [Ben Laurie]
5282
5283 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5284 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5285
5286 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5287 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5288 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5289 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5290 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5291 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5292 [Steve Henson]
5293
5294 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5295 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5296 [Richard Levitte]
5297
5298 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5299 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5300 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5301 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5302
5303 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5304 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5305 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5306 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5307 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5308 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5309 callback.
5310 [Richard Levitte]
5311
5312 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5313 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5314 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5315 and interrupts/cancellations.
5316 [Richard Levitte]
5317
5318 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5319 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5320 [Steve Henson]
5321
5322 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5323 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5324 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5325
5326 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5327 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5328 kind of callback.
5329 [Richard Levitte]
5330
5331 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5332 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5333 than this minimum value is recommended.
5334 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5335
5336 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5337 that are easily reachable.
5338 [Richard Levitte]
5339
5340 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5341 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5342
5343 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5344
5345 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5346 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5347 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5348 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5349 [Steve Henson]
5350
5351 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5352 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5353 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5354 [Steve Henson]
5355
5356 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5357 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5358 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5359 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5360 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5361 internally such as S/MIME.
5362
5363 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5364 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5365 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5366
5367 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5368 applications.
5369 [Steve Henson]
5370
5371 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5372 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5373 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5374 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5375
5376 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5377
5378 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5379
5380 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5381 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5382 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5383 handling.
5384 [Steve Henson]
5385
5386 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5387 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5388 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5389 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5390 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5391 a window system and the like.
5392 [Richard Levitte]
5393
5394 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5395 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5396 [Geoff]
5397
5398 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5399 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5400 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5401 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5402 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5403 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5404 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5405 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5406 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5407 ENGINE structure.
5408 [Geoff]
5409
5410 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5411 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5412 tag cache.
5413 [Steve Henson]
5414
5415 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5416 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5417 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5418 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5419 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5420 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5421 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5422 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5423 [Geoff]
5424
5425 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5426 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5427 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5428 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5429 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5430 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5431 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5432 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5433 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5434 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5435 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5436 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5437 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5438 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5439 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5440 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5441 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5442 [Geoff]
5443
5444 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5445 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5446 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5447 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5448 internal engine_int.h header.
5449 [Geoff]
5450
5451 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5452 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5453 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5454 modify their own ones).
5455 [Geoff]
5456
5457 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5458 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5459 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5460 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5461 later on via ctrl() commands.
5462 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5463 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5464 structural references.
5465 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5466 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5467 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5468 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5469 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5470 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5471 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5472 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5473 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5474 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5475 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5476 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5477 [Geoff]
5478
5479 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5480 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5481 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5482 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5483 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5484 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5485 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5486 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5487 [Bodo Moeller]
5488
5489 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5490 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5491 [Steve Henson]
5492
5493 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5494 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5495 [Steve Henson]
5496
5497 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5498 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5499 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5500 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5501 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5502 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5503 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5504 [Steve Henson]
5505
5506 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5507 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5508 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5509 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5510 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5511
5512 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5513 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5514 generator).
5515 [Bodo Moeller]
5516
5517 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5518
5519 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5520 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5521 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5522
5523 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5524 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5525
5526 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5527 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5528 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5529
5530 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5531 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5532
5533 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5534 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5535
5536 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5537
5538 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5539 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5540 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5541 [Bodo Moeller]
5542
5543 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5544 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5545 [Richard Levitte]
5546
5547 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5548 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5549 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5550 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5551 is 40 of more characters long.
5552 [Steve Henson]
5553
5554 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5555 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5556 pointers.
5557 [Steve Henson]
5558
5559 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5560 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5561 [Bodo Moeller]
5562
5563 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5564 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5565 might.
5566 [Steve Henson]
5567
5568 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5569
5570 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5571 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5572
5573 ASN1 error codes
5574 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5575 ...
5576 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5577 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5578 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5579 ...
5580 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5581 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5582
5583 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5584 [Bodo Moeller]
5585
5586 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5587 suffices.
5588 [Bodo Moeller]
5589
5590 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5591 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5592 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5593 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5594 and
5595 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5596
5597 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5598 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5599
5600 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5601 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5602 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5603 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5604 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5605 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5606
5607 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5608 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5609
5610 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5611 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5612
5613 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5614 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5615
5616 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5617 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5618 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5619 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5620
5621 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5622 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5623
5624 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5625 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5626
5627 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5628 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5629 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5630 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5631 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5632 [Richard Levitte]
5633
5634 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5635 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5636 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5637 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5638 [Steve Henson]
5639
5640 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5641 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5642 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5643 trust settings.
5644 [Steve Henson]
5645
5646 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5647 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5648 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5649 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5650 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5651 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5652 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5653 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5654 ocsp utility.
5655 [Steve Henson]
5656
5657 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5658 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5659 [Steve Henson]
5660
5661 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5662 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5663 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5664 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5665 [Steve Henson]
5666
5667 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5668 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5669 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5670 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5671 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5672 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5673 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5674 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5675 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5676 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5677 [Steve Henson]
5678
5679 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5680 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5681 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5682 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5683 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5684 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5685 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5686 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5687
5688 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5689 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5690 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5691 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5692 [Richard Levitte]
5693
5694 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5695 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5696 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5697 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5698 opensslconf.h.
5699 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5700 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5701 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5702 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5703 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5704 what is available.
5705 [Richard Levitte]
5706
5707 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5708 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5709 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5710 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5711 auto incremented.
5712 [Steve Henson]
5713
5714 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5715 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5716 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5717 [Steve Henson]
5718
5719 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5720 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5721 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5722 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5723 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5724 [Steve Henson]
5725
5726 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5727 [Steve Henson]
5728
5729 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5730 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5731 option to ocsp utility.
5732 [Steve Henson]
5733
5734 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5735 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5736 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5737 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5738 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5739 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5740 the request is nonce-less.
5741 [Steve Henson]
5742
5743 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5744 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5745 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5746 [Bodo Moeller]
5747
5748 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5749 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5750 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5751 [Steve Henson]
5752
5753 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5754 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5755 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5756 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5757 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5758 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5759
5760 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5761 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5762 appear to exist.
5763 [Steve Henson]
5764
5765 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5766 additional certificates supplied.
5767 [Steve Henson]
5768
5769 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5770 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5771 signature against.
5772 [Richard Levitte]
5773
5774 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5775 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5776 AES OIDs.
5777
5778 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5779 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5780 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5781 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5782 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5783 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5784 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5785 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5786 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5787
5788 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5789 request to response.
5790 [Steve Henson]
5791
5792 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5793 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5794 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5795 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5796 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5797 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5798 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5799 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5800 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5801 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5802 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5803 [Steve Henson]
5804
5805 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5806 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5807 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5808 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5809 [Steve Henson]
5810
5811 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5812 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5813
5814 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5815 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5816 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5817 [Steve Henson]
5818
5819 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5820 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5821 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5822 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5823 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5824
5825 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5826 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5827 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5828 [Steve Henson]
5829
5830 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5831 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5832 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5833 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5834 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5835 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5836 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5837 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5838
5839 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5840 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5841 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5842 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5843 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5844 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5845 [Steve Henson]
5846
5847 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5848 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5849 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5850 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5851 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5852 printout format cleaned up.
5853 [Steve Henson]
5854
5855 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5856 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5857 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5858 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5859 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5860 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5861 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5862 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5863 [Steve Henson]
5864
5865 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5866 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5867 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5868 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5869 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5870 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5871 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5872 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5873 [Steve Henson]
5874
5875 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5876 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5877 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5878 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5879 section to use.
5880 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5881
5882 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5883 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5884 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5885 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5886 [Steve Henson]
5887
5888 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5889 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5890 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5891 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5892 in the index file.
5893 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5894
5895 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5896 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5897 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5898 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5899
5900 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5901 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5902
5903 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5904 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5905 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5906 [Steve Henson]
5907
5908 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5909 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5910 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5911 [Bodo Moeller]
5912
5913 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5914 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5915 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5916 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5917 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5918 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5919 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5920 functions are provided:
5921
5922 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5923 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5924 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5925 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5926
5927 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5928 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5929 extended allocation function is enabled.
5930 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5931 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5932 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5933
5934 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5935 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5936 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5937 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5938 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5939 [Geoff Thorpe]
5940
5941 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5942 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5943 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5944 be queried.
5945 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5946 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5947 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5948 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5949
5950 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5951 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5952 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5953 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5954 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5955 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5956 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5957 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5958 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5959 [Richard Levitte]
5960
5961 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5962 provide utility functions which an application needing
5963 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5964 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5965 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5966
5967 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5968 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5969 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5970 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5971 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5972 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5973 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5974 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5975 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5976
5977 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5978 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5979 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5980 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5981 [Steve Henson]
5982
5983 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5984 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5985 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5986 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5987 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5988 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5989 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5990 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5991 will be added elsewhere.
5992 [Steve Henson]
5993
5994 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5995 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5996 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5997 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5998 [Steve Henson]
5999
6000 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
6001 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
6002 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
6003 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
6004 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
6005 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
6006 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
6007 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
6008 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
6009 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
6010 to produce the required SET OF.
6011 [Steve Henson]
6012
6013 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
6014 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
6015 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
6016 [Richard Levitte]
6017
6018 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
6019 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
6020 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
6021 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
6022 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
6023 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
6024 [Steve Henson]
6025
6026 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
6027 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
6028 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
6029 [Steve Henson]
6030
6031 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
6032 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
6033 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
6034 [Richard Levitte]
6035
6036 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
6037 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
6038 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
6039 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
6040 code will still work when these eventually go away.
6041 [Steve Henson]
6042
6043 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
6044 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
6045 [Steve Henson]
6046
6047 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
6048 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
6049 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
6050 certifcates and CRLs.
6051 [Steve Henson]
6052
6053 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
6054 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
6055 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
6056 [Steve Henson]
6057
6058 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
6059 entries for variables.
6060 [Steve Henson]
6061
6062 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
6063 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
6064 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
6065 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
6066 [Bodo Moeller]
6067
6068 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
6069 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
6070 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
6071 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
6072 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
6073 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
6074 [Bodo Moeller]
6075
6076 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
6077 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
6078
6079 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
6080 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
6081 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
6082 [Steve Henson]
6083
6084 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6085 print routines.
6086 [Steve Henson]
6087
6088 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6089 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6090 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6091 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6092 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6093 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6094 [Steve Henson]
6095
6096 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6097 [Steve Henson]
6098
6099 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6100 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6101 for now but they will eventually go away.
6102 [Steve Henson]
6103
6104 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6105 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6106 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6107 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6108 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6109 has also been converted to the new form.
6110 [Steve Henson]
6111
6112 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6113 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6114 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6115 for negative moduli.
6116 [Bodo Moeller]
6117
6118 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6119 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6120 [Bodo Moeller]
6121
6122 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6123 set.
6124 [Bodo Moeller]
6125
6126 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6127 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6128 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6129 type-specific callbacks.
6130 [Geoff Thorpe]
6131
6132 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6133 RFC 2712.
6134 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6135 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6136
6137 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6138 in sections depending on the subject.
6139 [Richard Levitte]
6140
6141 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6142 Windows.
6143 [Richard Levitte]
6144
6145 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6146 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6147 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6148 be handled deterministically).
6149 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6150
6151 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6152 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6153 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6154 [Bodo Moeller]
6155
6156 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6157 [Bodo Moeller]
6158
6159 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6160 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6161 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6162 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6163 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6164 [Bodo Moeller]
6165
6166 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6167 sign of the number in question.
6168
6169 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6170
6171 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6172 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6173 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6174 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6175 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6176 [Bodo Moeller]
6177
6178 *) New function BN_swap.
6179 [Bodo Moeller]
6180
6181 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6182 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6183 results on negative inputs.
6184 [Bodo Moeller]
6185
6186 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6187 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6188 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6189 [Bodo Moeller]
6190
6191 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6192 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6193 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6194 and add new functions:
6195
6196 BN_nnmod
6197 BN_mod_sqr
6198 BN_mod_add
6199 BN_mod_add_quick
6200 BN_mod_sub
6201 BN_mod_sub_quick
6202 BN_mod_lshift1
6203 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6204 BN_mod_lshift
6205 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6206
6207 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6208
6209 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6210 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6211
6212 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6213 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6214 be reduced modulo m.
6215 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6216
6217 #if 0
6218 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6219 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6220 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6221
6222 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6223 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6224 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6225 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6226 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6227 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6228 differing sizes.
6229 [Richard Levitte]
6230 #endif
6231
6232 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6233 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6234 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6235 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6236 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6237
6238 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6239 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6240 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6241 cause any problems.
6242 [Bodo Moeller]
6243
6244 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6245 [Richard Levitte]
6246
6247 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6248 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6249 [Richard Levitte]
6250
6251 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6252 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6253 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6254 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6255 time)
6256 [Richard Levitte]
6257
6258 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6259 [Richard Levitte]
6260
6261 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6262 [Richard Levitte]
6263
6264 *) Add the following functions:
6265
6266 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6267 ENGINE_load_chil()
6268 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6269 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6270 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6271
6272 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6273 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6274 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6275 libraries unless it's really needed.
6276
6277 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6278 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6279 declarations (they differed!).
6280 [Richard Levitte]
6281
6282 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6283 [Richard Levitte]
6284
6285 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6286 [Richard Levitte]
6287
6288 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6289 [Bodo Moeller]
6290
6291 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6292 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6293 [Richard Levitte]
6294
6295 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6296 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6297 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6298
6299 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6300 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6301 [Richard Levitte]
6302
6303 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6304 [Richard Levitte]
6305
6306 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6307 [Richard Levitte]
6308
6309 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6310 [Ben Laurie]
6311
6312 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6313 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6314 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6315
6316 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6317 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6318 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6319 different shared library filenames on each system.
6320 [Geoff Thorpe]
6321
6322 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6323 [Richard Levitte]
6324
6325 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6326 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6327 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6328 of two sections.
6329 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6330
6331 *) NCONF changes.
6332 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6333 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6334 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6335 binary backward compatibility.
6336 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6337 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6338 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6339 LDAP server.
6340 [Richard Levitte]
6341
6342 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6343 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6344 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6345 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6346 this case.
6347 [Steve Henson]
6348
6349 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6350 [Ben Laurie]
6351
6352 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6353 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6354 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6355 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6356 set.
6357 [Steve Henson]
6358
6359 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6360 [Richard Levitte]
6361
6362 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6363
6364 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6365 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6366 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6367
6368 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6369
6370 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6371
6372 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6373 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6374 [Steve Henson]
6375
6376 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6377
6378 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6379
6380 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6381 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6382
6383 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6384 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6385
6386 [Steve Henson]
6387
6388 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6389 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6390 specifications.
6391 [Steve Henson]
6392
6393 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6394 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6395 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6396 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6397
6398 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6399 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6400 [Richard Levitte]
6401
6402 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6403
6404 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6405 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6406 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6407 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6408 [Bodo Moeller]
6409
6410 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6411 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6412 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6413 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6414 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6415
6416 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6417 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6418 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6419 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6420 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6421 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6422 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6423 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6424 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6425 [Bodo Moeller]
6426
6427 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6428
6429 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6430 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6431 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6432 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6433 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6434
6435 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6436 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6437 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6438
6439 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6440
6441 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6442 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6443 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6444 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6445 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6446 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6447 [Geoff Thorpe]
6448
6449 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6450 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6451 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6452 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6453 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6454 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6455
6456 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6457 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6458 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6459
6460 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6461 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6462 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6463 EVP_cleanup().
6464 [Richard Levitte]
6465
6466 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6467 being properly terminated.
6468 [Richard Levitte]
6469
6470 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6471 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6472 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6473 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6474
6475 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6476 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6477 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6478 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6479 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6480 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6481 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6482 change.
6483 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6484
6485 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6486 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6487 [Bodo Moeller]
6488
6489 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6490 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6491 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6492 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6493 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6494 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6495 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6496 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6497
6498 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6499 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6500 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6501 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6502 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6503
6504 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6505 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6506 [Steve Henson]
6507
6508 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6509
6510 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6511 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6512 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6513
6514 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6515
6516 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6517 and get fix the header length calculation.
6518 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6519 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6520 Steve Henson]
6521
6522 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6523 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6524 assertions could call abort()).
6525 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6526
6527 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6528
6529 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6530 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6531 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6532 supplied buffer.
6533 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6534
6535 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6536 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6537 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6538 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6539
6540 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6541 [Nils Larsch]
6542
6543 *) New option
6544 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6545 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6546 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6547
6548 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6549 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6550 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6551 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6552 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6553 applications.
6554 [Bodo Moeller]
6555
6556 *) Changes in security patch:
6557
6558 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6559 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6560 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6561 F30602-01-2-0537.
6562
6563 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6564 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6565 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6566 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6567 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6568
6569 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6570 happen in practice.
6571 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6572
6573 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6574 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6575 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6576
6577 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6578 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6579 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6580
6581 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6582 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6583 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6584
6585 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6586
6587 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6588 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6589 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6590
6591 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6592 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6593
6594 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6595 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6596 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6597 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6598 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6599 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6600 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6601
6602 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6603 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6604 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6605 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6606 [Bodo Moeller]
6607
6608 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6609 [Bodo Moeller]
6610
6611 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6612 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6613 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6614 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6615 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6616 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6617
6618 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6619 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6620 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6621 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6622 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6623 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6624
6625 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6626 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6627 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6628 BN_generate_prime().)
6629
6630 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6631 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6632 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6633 better.
6634 [Bodo Moeller]
6635
6636 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6637 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6638 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6639
6640 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6641 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6642 when using non-blocking I/O.
6643 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6644
6645 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6646 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6647
6648 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6649 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6650 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6651
6652 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6653 configuration for the versions before that.
6654 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6655
6656 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6657 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6658 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6659 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6660 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6661
6662 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6663 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6664 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6665 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6666
6667 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6668 value is 0.
6669 [Richard Levitte]
6670
6671 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6672 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6673 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6674
6675 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6676 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6677
6678 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6679 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6680 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6681 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6682 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6683 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6684 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6685 session cache.
6686
6687 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6688 using a local variable.
6689 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6690
6691 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6692 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6693 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6694
6695 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6696 [Richard Levitte]
6697
6698 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6699 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6700
6701 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6702 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6703 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6704
6705 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6706
6707 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6708 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6709 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6710 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6711 [Bodo Moeller]
6712
6713 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6714 present.
6715 [Steve Henson]
6716
6717 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6718 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6719 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6720 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6721 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6722
6723 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6724 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6725 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6726
6727 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6728 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6729 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6730
6731 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6732 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6733 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6734 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6735
6736 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6737 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6738 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6739 modules).
6740 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6741
6742 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6743 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6744 from 0.9.7.
6745 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6746
6747 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6748 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6749 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6750 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6751
6752 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6753 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6754 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6755 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6756
6757 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6758 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6759
6760 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6761 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6762 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6763 [Bodo Moeller]
6764
6765 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6766 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6767 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6768 become invalid.
6769 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6770
6771 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6772 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6773 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6774 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6775 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6776 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6777 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6778 [Bodo Moeller]
6779
6780 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6781 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6782 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6783 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6784
6785 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6786 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6787 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6788 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6789 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6790 the client will at least see that alert.
6791 [Bodo Moeller]
6792
6793 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6794 correctly.
6795 [Bodo Moeller]
6796
6797 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6798 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6799 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6800
6801 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6802 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6803 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6804 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6805 HelloRequest.
6806
6807 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6808 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6809 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6810
6811 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6812 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6813 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6814 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6815 may leak via logfiles.)
6816
6817 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6818 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6819 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6820 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6821 the legal range.
6822 [Bodo Moeller]
6823
6824 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6825 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6826 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6827
6828 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6829 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6830 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6831 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6832 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6833 [Bodo Moeller]
6834
6835 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6836 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6837
6838 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6839 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6840 followed by modular reduction.
6841 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6842
6843 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6844 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6845 [Bodo Moeller]
6846
6847 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6848 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6849 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6850 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6851 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6852
6853 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6854 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6855
6856 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6857 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6858 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6859
6860 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6861 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6862 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6863 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6864 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6865 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6866 automatically.
6867 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6868
6869 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6870 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6871 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6872 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6873 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6874
6875 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6876 [Andy Polyakov]
6877
6878 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6879 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6880 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6881 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6882 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6883 to allow the necessary settings.
6884 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6885
6886 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6887 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6888 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6889 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6890 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6891
6892 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6893 dh->length and always used
6894
6895 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6896
6897 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6898 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6899 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6900 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6901 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6902 dh->length.
6903
6904 So switch back to
6905
6906 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6907
6908 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6909 otherwise.
6910 [Bodo Moeller]
6911
6912 *) In
6913
6914 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6915 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6916 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6917 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6918
6919 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6920 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6921 always reject numbers >= n.
6922 [Bodo Moeller]
6923
6924 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6925 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6926 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6927 variable) is not atomic.
6928 [Bodo Moeller]
6929
6930 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6931 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6932 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6933 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6934
6935 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6936 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6937
6938 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6939 little-endian MIPS.
6940 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6941
6942 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6943 [Richard Levitte]
6944
6945 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6946
6947 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6948 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6949 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6950 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6951 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6952 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6953 to traverse all of 'state'.
6954
6955 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6956 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6957 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6958
6959 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6960 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6961
6962 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6963 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6964 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6965 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6966 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6967 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6968 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6969 further strengthens the PRNG.
6970 [Bodo Moeller]
6971
6972 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6973 [Andy Polyakov]
6974
6975 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6976 an error message in this case.
6977 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6978
6979 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6980 [Steve Henson]
6981
6982 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6983 positive and less than q.
6984 [Bodo Moeller]
6985
6986 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6987 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6988 that itself.
6989 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6990
6991 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6992 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6993 [Bodo Moeller]
6994
6995 *) Fix OAEP check.
6996 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6997
6998 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6999 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
7000 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
7001 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
7002 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
7003 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
7004 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
7005 paper.)
7006
7007 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
7008 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
7009 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
7010 detect the supposedly ignored error.
7011
7012 Both problems are now fixed.
7013 [Bodo Moeller]
7014
7015 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
7016 (previously it was 1024).
7017 [Bodo Moeller]
7018
7019 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
7020 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
7021 [Steve Henson]
7022
7023 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
7024 [Steve Henson]
7025
7026 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
7027 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
7028 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
7029 [Steve Henson]
7030
7031 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
7032 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
7033 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
7034 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
7035 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
7036 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
7037 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
7038 environment variables.
7039
7040 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
7041 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
7042 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
7043 [Bodo Moeller]
7044
7045 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
7046 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
7047 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
7048 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
7049 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
7050 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
7051 [Bodo Moeller]
7052
7053 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
7054 versions of 'test'.
7055 [Bodo Moeller]
7056
7057 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
7058
7059 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
7060 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
7061
7062 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
7063 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
7064 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
7065 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
7066 CygWin.
7067 [Richard Levitte]
7068
7069 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
7070 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
7071 amount of data available.
7072 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
7073 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7074
7075 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
7076 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
7077 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
7078 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
7079 [Bodo Moeller]
7080
7081 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
7082 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7083 and UnixWare.
7084 [Richard Levitte]
7085
7086 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7087 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7088 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7089 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
7090 [Ulf Moeller]
7091
7092 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7093 [Andy Polyakov]
7094
7095 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7096 [Richard Levitte]
7097
7098 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7099 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7100 [Steve Henson]
7101 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7102
7103 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7104 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7105 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7106 (but broken) behaviour.
7107 [Steve Henson]
7108
7109 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7110 it when found.
7111 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7112
7113 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7114 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7115 [Bodo Moeller]
7116
7117 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7118 did not exist.
7119 [Bodo Moeller]
7120
7121 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7122 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7123
7124 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7125 [Richard Levitte]
7126
7127 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7128 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7129 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7130
7131 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7132 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7133 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7134 [Steve Henson]
7135
7136 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7137 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7138 [Ulf Moeller]
7139
7140 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7141 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7142
7143 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7144
7145 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7146
7147 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7148 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7149 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7150 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7151 [Bodo Moeller]
7152
7153 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7154 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7155
7156 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7157 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7158 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7159
7160 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7161 was empty.
7162 [Steve Henson]
7163 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7164
7165 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7166 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7167 but the code is actually correct.
7168 [Steve Henson]
7169
7170 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7171 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7172 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7173 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7174 and leaves the highest bit random.
7175 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7176
7177 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7178 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7179 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7180 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7181 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7182 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7183 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7184 [Bodo Moeller]
7185
7186 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7187 [Ulf Moeller]
7188
7189 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7190 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7191 [Steve Henson]
7192
7193 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7194 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7195 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7196 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7197 headers.
7198 [Richard Levitte]
7199
7200 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7201 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7202 and break the signature.
7203 [Steve Henson]
7204 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7205
7206 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7207 DH ciphersuites.
7208 [Steve Henson]
7209
7210 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7211 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7212 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7213 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7214 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7215 [Bodo Moeller]
7216
7217 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7218 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7219
7220 *) ./config script fixes.
7221 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7222
7223 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7224 [Bodo Moeller]
7225
7226 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7227 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7228 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7229 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7230 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7231
7232 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7233 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7234 [Bodo Moeller]
7235
7236 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7237 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7238 [Steve Henson]
7239
7240 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7241 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7242 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7243 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7244
7245 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7246 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7247
7248 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7249 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7250 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7251 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7252 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7253
7254 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7255 [Bodo Moeller]
7256
7257 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7258 [Ulf Möller]
7259
7260 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7261 [Ulf Möller]
7262
7263 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7264 [Bodo Moeller]
7265
7266 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7267 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7268 [Bodo Moeller]
7269
7270 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7271 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7272 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7273 result of the server certificate verification.)
7274 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7275
7276 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7277 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7278 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7279 [Bodo Moeller]
7280
7281 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7282 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7283 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7284 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7285 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7286 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7287 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7288 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7289 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7290 [Bodo Moeller]
7291
7292 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7293 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7294 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7295 happening the other way round.
7296 [Geoff Thorpe]
7297
7298 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7299 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7300 [Bodo Moeller]
7301
7302 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7303 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7304 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7305 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7306 [Richard Levitte]
7307
7308 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7309 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7310
7311 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7312
7313 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7314 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7315 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7316 that.
7317
7318 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7319
7320 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7321
7322 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7323 static ones.
7324 [Richard Levitte]
7325
7326 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7327
7328 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7329 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7330 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7331 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7332 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7333
7334 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7335 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7336 matter what.
7337 [Richard Levitte]
7338
7339 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7340 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7341
7342 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7343
7344 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7345 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7346 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7347 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7348 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7349 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7350 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7351 by the Finished messages.
7352 [Bodo Moeller]
7353
7354 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7355 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7356
7357 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7358 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7359 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7360 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7361 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7362 appropriately.
7363 [Steve Henson]
7364
7365 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7366 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7367 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7368 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7369 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7370 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7371 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7372 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7373 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7374 together.
7375 [Steve Henson]
7376
7377 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7378 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7379 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7380 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7381
7382 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7383 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7384 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7385 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7386 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7387 the answer.
7388
7389 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7390 been tested well enough.
7391 [Richard Levitte]
7392
7393 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7394 it can return incorrect results.
7395 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7396 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7397 [Bodo Moeller]
7398
7399 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7400 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7401 include zero length content when signing messages.
7402 [Steve Henson]
7403
7404 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7405 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7406 [Bodo Möller]
7407
7408 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7409 [Richard Levitte]
7410
7411 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7412 wrong sign.
7413 [Ulf Möller]
7414
7415 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7416 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7417 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7418 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7419 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7420 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7421 [Richard Levitte]
7422
7423 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7424 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7425
7426 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7427 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7428
7429 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7430 random number < q in the DSA library.
7431 [Ulf Möller]
7432
7433 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7434 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7435 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7436 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7437 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7438 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7439 just makes things more complicated.)
7440 [Bodo Moeller]
7441
7442 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7443 from EGD.
7444 [Ben Laurie]
7445
7446 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7447 work better on such systems.
7448 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7449
7450 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7451 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7452 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7453 [Steve Henson]
7454
7455 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7456 if there was more than one signature.
7457 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7458
7459 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7460 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7461 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7462 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7463 [Richard Levitte]
7464
7465 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7466 rather than always using the current time.
7467 [Steve Henson]
7468
7469 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7470 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7471 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7472 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7473 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7474 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7475
7476 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7477 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7478
7479 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7480
7481 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7482 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7483 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7484 the same hash value.
7485
7486 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7487 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7488 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7489 with X509_STORE internally.
7490
7491 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7492 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7493
7494 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7495 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7496 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7497 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7498 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7499 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7500 entirely (maybe later...).
7501
7502 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7503
7504 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7505 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7506 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7507 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7508 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7509 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7510 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7511 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7512
7513 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7514 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7515
7516 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7517 to customise the verify behaviour.
7518 [Steve Henson]
7519
7520 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7521 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7522 [Steve Henson]
7523
7524 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7525 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7526 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7527 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7528 request is improperly encoded.
7529 [Steve Henson]
7530
7531 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7532 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7533 BIO_write(b, ...).
7534
7535 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7536 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7537
7538 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7539 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7540 words set to zero.)
7541 [Bodo Moeller]
7542
7543 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7544 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7545 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7546 [Bodo Moeller]
7547
7548 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7549 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7550 BIO/fp routines also added.
7551 [Steve Henson]
7552
7553 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7554 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7555
7556 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7557 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7558 demos/state_machine.
7559 [Ben Laurie]
7560
7561 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7562 generation and verification.
7563 [Steve Henson]
7564
7565 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7566 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7567 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7568 encode and decode it manually.
7569 [Steve Henson]
7570
7571 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7572 compile under VC++.
7573 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7574
7575 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7576 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7577 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7578 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7579
7580 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7581 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7582 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7583 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7584 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7585 [Steve Henson]
7586
7587 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7588 [Richard Levitte]
7589
7590 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7591 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7592 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7593
7594 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7595 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7596 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7597 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7598 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7599 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7600 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7601 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7602
7603 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7604 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7605
7606 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7607
7608 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7609 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7610 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7611
7612 [Richard Levitte]
7613
7614 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7615 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7616 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7617 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7618 [Richard Levitte]
7619
7620 *) MD4 implemented.
7621 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7622
7623 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7624 [Richard Levitte]
7625
7626 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7627 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7628 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7629 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7630 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7631 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7632 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7633 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7634 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7635 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7636 short or long names are found.
7637 [Steve Henson]
7638
7639 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7640 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7641
7642 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7643 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7644 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7645 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7646
7647 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7648 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7649 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7650 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7651 [Bodo Moeller]
7652
7653 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7654 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7655 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7656 [Richard Levitte]
7657
7658 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7659 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7660 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7661 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7662 to allow the various flags to be set.
7663 [Steve Henson]
7664
7665 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7666 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7667 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7668 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7669 dates to be checked.
7670 [Steve Henson]
7671
7672 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7673 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7674 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7675 [Steve Henson]
7676
7677 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7678 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7679 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7680 [Steve Henson]
7681
7682 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7683 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7684 [Bodo Moeller]
7685
7686 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7687 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7688 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7689 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7690 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7691 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7692 [Richard Levitte]
7693
7694 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7695 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7696 Random Numbers.
7697 [Ulf Möller]
7698
7699 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7700 DSA key.
7701 [Steve Henson]
7702
7703 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7704 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7705 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7706 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7707 form signing output easier to verify.
7708 [Steve Henson]
7709
7710 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7711 [Steve Henson]
7712
7713 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7714 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7715 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7716 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7717 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7718 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7719 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7720 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7721 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7722 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7723 [Steve Henson]
7724
7725 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7726
7727 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7728 the syntax given in objects.README.
7729 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7730 obj_mac.h.
7731 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7732 obj_mac.h.
7733
7734 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7735 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7736 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7737 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7738 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7739 consistent name changes.
7740 [Richard Levitte]
7741
7742 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7743 [Bodo Moeller]
7744
7745 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7746 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7747 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7748 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7749 [Richard Levitte]
7750
7751 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7752 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7753 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7754 of safestack.h .
7755 [Steve Henson]
7756
7757 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7758 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7759 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7760 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7761 [Steve Henson]
7762
7763 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7764 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7765 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7766 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7767 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7768 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7769 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7770 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7771 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7772 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7773 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7774 [Steve Henson]
7775
7776 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7777 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7778 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7779 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7780 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7781 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7782 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7783 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7784 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7785 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7786 [Steve Henson]
7787
7788 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7789 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7790 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7791 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7792
7793 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7794 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7795 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7796 omit any duplicate addresses.
7797 [Steve Henson]
7798
7799 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7800 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7801 [Bodo Moeller]
7802
7803 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7804 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7805 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7806 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7807 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7808 [Bodo Moeller]
7809
7810 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7811 software:
7812 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7813 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7814 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7815 Free => OPENSSL_free
7816 [Richard Levitte]
7817
7818 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7819 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7820 [Bodo Moeller]
7821
7822 *) CygWin32 support.
7823 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7824
7825 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7826 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7827 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7828 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7829 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7830 approach.
7831 [Geoff Thorpe]
7832
7833 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7834 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7835 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7836 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7837 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7838 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7839 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7840 [Geoff Thorpe]
7841
7842 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7843 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7844 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7845 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7846 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7847 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7848 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7849 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7850 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7851 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7852 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7853 [Bodo Moeller]
7854
7855 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7856 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7857 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7858 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7859 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7860
7861 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7862 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7863 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7864 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7865 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7866
7867 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7868 ciphers.
7869
7870 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7871 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7872 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7873 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7874
7875 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7876
7877 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7878 of macros.
7879
7880 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7881 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7882 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7883 flags.
7884
7885 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7886 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7887 any installed hardware versions can.
7888 [Steve Henson]
7889
7890 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7891 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7892 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7893 number.
7894 [Bodo Moeller]
7895
7896 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7897 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7898 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7899 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7900 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7901
7902 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7903 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7904 [Steve Henson]
7905
7906 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7907 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7908 [Richard Levitte]
7909
7910 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7911 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7912 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7913 features.
7914 [Steve Henson]
7915
7916 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7917 [Ulf Möller]
7918
7919 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7920 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7921 but no ssl client purpose.
7922 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7923
7924 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7925 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7926 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7927 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7928 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7929 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7930 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7931 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7932 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7933 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7934 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7935 [Steve Henson]
7936
7937 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7938 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7939 be obtained from the error queue.
7940 [Bodo Moeller]
7941
7942 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7943 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7944 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7945 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7946 [Bodo Moeller]
7947
7948 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7949 [Ulf Möller]
7950
7951 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7952 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7953 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7954 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7955 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7956 [Geoff Thorpe]
7957
7958 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7959 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7960 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7961 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7962 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7963 [Geoff Thorpe]
7964
7965 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7966 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7967 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7968 may not be NULL.
7969 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7970
7971 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7972 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7973 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7974 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7975 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7976 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7977 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7978 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7979 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7980 or "the configuration storage API"...
7981
7982 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7983
7984 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7985 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7986
7987 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7988
7989 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7990
7991 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7992 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7993 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7994 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7995 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7996 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7997 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7998
7999 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
8000 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
8001 [Richard Levitte]
8002
8003 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
8004 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
8005 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
8006 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
8007 [Bodo Moeller]
8008
8009 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
8010 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
8011 them in a portable way.
8012 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
8013
8014 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
8015
8016 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
8017
8018 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
8019 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
8020
8021 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
8022 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
8023 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
8024 <attili@amaxo.com>]
8025
8026 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
8027 was larger than the MD block size.
8028 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
8029
8030 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
8031 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
8032 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
8033 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
8034 components.
8035 [Steve Henson]
8036
8037 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
8038 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
8039 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
8040
8041 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
8042 discouraged.
8043 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
8044
8045 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
8046 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
8047 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
8048 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
8049 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
8050 Additional arguments are always ignored.
8051
8052 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
8053 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
8054
8055 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
8056 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
8057 [Bodo Moeller]
8058
8059 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
8060 [Bodo Moeller]
8061
8062 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
8063 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
8064 its own key.
8065 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
8066 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
8067 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
8068 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
8069 [Bodo Moeller]
8070
8071 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
8072 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
8073 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
8074 does not suppress any output.
8075 [Richard Levitte]
8076
8077 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
8078 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
8079 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
8080 with all the associated security issues.
8081
8082 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8083 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8084 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8085 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8086 use the value in the default purpose.
8087 [Steve Henson]
8088
8089 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8090 and fix a memory leak.
8091 [Steve Henson]
8092
8093 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8094 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8095 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8096 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8097 [Bodo Moeller]
8098
8099 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8100 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8101 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8102 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8103 [Bodo Moeller]
8104
8105 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8106 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8107 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8108 [Bodo Moeller]
8109
8110 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8111 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8112 [Bodo Moeller]
8113
8114 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8115 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8116 which was free.
8117 [Steve Henson]
8118
8119 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8120 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8121 [Bodo Moeller]
8122
8123 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8124 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8125 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8126 [Bodo Moeller]
8127
8128 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8129 number generation fails.
8130 [Bodo Moeller]
8131
8132 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8133 [Bodo Moeller]
8134
8135 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8136 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8137
8138 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8139 [Ulf Möller]
8140
8141 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8142 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8143
8144 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8145 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8146
8147 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8148
8149 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8150 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8151 [Steve Henson]
8152
8153 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8154 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8155
8156 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8157 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8158 [Ulf Möller]
8159
8160 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8161 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8162 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8163 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8164 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8165 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8166
8167 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8168 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8169 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8170 for example.
8171 [Steve Henson]
8172
8173 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8174 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8175 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8176 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8177 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8178 counter, some don't.)
8179 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8180 counters or duplicate objects.
8181 [Steve Henson]
8182
8183 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8184 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8185 [Steve Henson]
8186
8187 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8188 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8189 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8190
8191 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8192 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8193 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8194 or -rand.
8195 [Ulf Möller]
8196
8197 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8198 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8199 [Steve Henson]
8200
8201 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8202 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8203 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8204 cipher list.
8205 [Steve Henson]
8206
8207 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8208 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8209 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8210 [Steve Henson]
8211
8212 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8213 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8214 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8215 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8216 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8217 should work without changes.
8218 [Richard Levitte]
8219
8220 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8221 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8222 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8223 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8224 must be defined. E.g.,
8225 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8226 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8227 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8228 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8229
8230 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8231 record layer.
8232 [Bodo Moeller]
8233
8234 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8235 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8236 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8237 [Steve Henson]
8238
8239 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8240 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8241 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8242 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8243 [Steve Henson]
8244
8245 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8246 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8247 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8248 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8249 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8250 is prompted for as usual.
8251 [Steve Henson]
8252
8253 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8254 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8255 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8256 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8257
8258 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8259 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8260 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8261 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8262 [Steve Henson]
8263
8264 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8265 [Andy Polyakov]
8266
8267 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8268 of seed file.
8269 [Steve Henson]
8270
8271 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8272 [Bodo Moeller]
8273
8274 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8275 [Steve Henson]
8276
8277 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8278 bits.
8279 [Ulf Möller]
8280
8281 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8282 [Ulf Möller]
8283
8284 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8285 [Andy Polyakov]
8286
8287 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8288 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8289 [Ulf Möller]
8290
8291 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8292 options to produce them.
8293 [Steve Henson]
8294
8295 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8296 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8297 [Ulf Möller]
8298
8299 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8300 for p == 0.
8301 [Ulf Möller]
8302
8303 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8304 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8305 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8306 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8307 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8308 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8309 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8310 [Steve Henson]
8311
8312 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8313 [Steve Henson]
8314
8315 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8316 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8317 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8318 [Bodo Moeller]
8319
8320 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8321 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8322
8323 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8324 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8325 [Ulf Möller]
8326
8327 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8328 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8329 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8330 has already seen).
8331 [Bodo Moeller]
8332
8333 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8334 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8335
8336 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8337 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8338 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8339 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8340 generation becomes much faster.
8341
8342 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8343 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8344 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8345 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8346 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8347 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8348 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8349 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8350 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8351 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8352 [Bodo Moeller]
8353
8354 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8355 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8356 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8357 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8358 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8359 trial division stage.
8360 [Bodo Moeller]
8361
8362 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8363 as ASN1_TIME.
8364 [Steve Henson]
8365
8366 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8367 [Steve Henson]
8368
8369 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8370 [Ulf Möller]
8371
8372 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8373 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8374 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8375 the comments.
8376 [Ulf Möller]
8377
8378 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8379 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8380 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8381 [Bodo Moeller]
8382
8383 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8384 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8385 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8386 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8387
8388 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8389 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8390 [Steve Henson]
8391
8392 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8393 [Ulf Möller]
8394
8395 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8396 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8397 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8398 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8399 [Ulf Möller]
8400
8401 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8402 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8403 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8404 [Ulf Möller]
8405
8406 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8407 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8408 (instead of parameters) in future.
8409 [Steve Henson]
8410
8411 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8412 when a new cipher list is set.
8413 [Steve Henson]
8414
8415 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8416 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8417 wrong.
8418
8419 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8420 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8421 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8422
8423 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8424 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8425 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8426 an error is flagged.
8427
8428 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8429 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8430 the readability was also increased :-)
8431 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8432
8433 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8434 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8435 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8436 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8437 as the root CA.
8438 [Steve Henson]
8439
8440 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8441 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8442 [Steve Henson]
8443
8444 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8445 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8446 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8447 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8448 instead.
8449
8450 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8451 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8452 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8453 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8454 because they handle more complex structures.)
8455 [Steve Henson]
8456
8457 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8458 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8459 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8460 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8461
8462 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8463 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8464 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8465 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8466 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8467 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8468 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8469 [Ulf Möller]
8470
8471 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8472 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8473 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8474 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8475 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8476 [Bodo Moeller]
8477
8478 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8479 [Bodo Moeller]
8480
8481 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8482 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8483 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8484 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8485 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8486 to use this.
8487
8488 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8489 code.
8490 [Steve Henson]
8491
8492 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8493 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8494 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8495 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8496 [Steve Henson]
8497
8498 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8499 [Ulf Möller]
8500
8501 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8502 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8503 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8504 international characters are used.
8505
8506 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8507 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8508 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8509 in ASN1 order.
8510 [Steve Henson]
8511
8512 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8513 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8514 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8515 request.
8516
8517 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8518 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8519 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8520 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8521 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8522 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8523
8524 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8525 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8526 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8527 be handled by the string table functions.
8528
8529 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8530 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8531 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8532 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8533 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8534 types at all.
8535 [Steve Henson]
8536
8537 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8538 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8539 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8540 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8541 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8542
8543 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8544 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8545 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8546 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8547 [Bodo Moeller]
8548
8549 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8550 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8551 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8552 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8553 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8554 SHA1.
8555 [Andy Polyakov]
8556
8557 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8558 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8559 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8560 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8561 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8562 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8563 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8564 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8565
8566 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8567 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8568 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8569 [Steve Henson]
8570
8571 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8572 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8573 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8574 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8575 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8576 support to pkcs8 application.
8577 [Steve Henson]
8578
8579 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8580 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8581 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8582 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8583 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8584 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8585 [Bodo Moeller]
8586
8587 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8588 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8589 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8590 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8591 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8592 consistency.
8593 [Bodo Moeller]
8594
8595 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8596 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8597 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8598 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8599 example.
8600 [Steve Henson]
8601
8602 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8603 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8604 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8605 and any application specific purposes.
8606
8607 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8608 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8609 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8610 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8611 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8612 if the certificate is self signed.
8613 [Steve Henson]
8614
8615 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8616 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8617 [Steve Henson]
8618
8619 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8620 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8621 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8622 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8623 [Steve Henson]
8624
8625 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8626 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8627 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8628 Update documentation.
8629 [Steve Henson]
8630
8631 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8632 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8633 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8634 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8635 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8636 [Steve Henson]
8637
8638 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8639 for details.
8640 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8641
8642 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8643 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8644 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8645 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8646 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8647 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8648 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8649 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8650 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8651 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8652
8653 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8654
8655 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8656 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8657 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8658 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8659 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8660
8661 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8662 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8663 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8664 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8665 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8666 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8667 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8668 request additional information:
8669 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8670 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8671
8672 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8673 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8674 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8675 options.
8676
8677 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8678 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8679
8680 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8681 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8682 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8683
8684 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8685 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8686
8687 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8688 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8689 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8690 algorithm.
8691 [Steve Henson]
8692
8693 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8694 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8695 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8696
8697 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8698 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8699 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8700 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8701 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8702 included in OpenSSL.
8703 [Steve Henson]
8704
8705 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8706 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8707 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8708 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8709 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8710 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8711 [Bodo Moeller]
8712
8713 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8714 PKCS12 structure.
8715 [Steve Henson]
8716
8717 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8718 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8719 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8720 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8721 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8722 structure.
8723 [Steve Henson]
8724
8725 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8726 need initialising.
8727 [Steve Henson]
8728
8729 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8730 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8731 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8732 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8733 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8734 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8735 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8736 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8737 be maintained manually.
8738
8739 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8740 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8741 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8742 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8743 work because people forget to call this function]
8744 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8745 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8746 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8747 [Steve Henson]
8748
8749 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8750 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8751 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8752 should be discouraged from doing it.
8753 [Ben Laurie]
8754
8755 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8756 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8757 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8758 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8759 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8760 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8761 [Steve Henson]
8762
8763 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8764 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8765 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8766
8767 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8768 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8769 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8770
8771 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8772 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8773 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8774 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8775 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8776 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8777
8778 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8779 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8780 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8781
8782 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8783 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8784 and vice versa.
8785
8786 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8787 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8788 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8789 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8790 [Steve Henson]
8791
8792 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8793 [Steve Henson]
8794
8795 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8796 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8797 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8798 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8799 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8800 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8801 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8802 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8803 keys so we should be OK.
8804
8805 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8806 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8807 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8808 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8809 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8810 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8811 stay in the name of compatibility.
8812
8813 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8814 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8815 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8816
8817 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8818 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8819 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8820 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8821 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8822 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8823 supplied key).
8824 [Steve Henson]
8825
8826 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8827 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8828 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8829 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8830 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8831 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8832 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8833 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8834 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8835 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8836 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8837 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8838 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8839 [Steve Henson]
8840
8841 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8842 [Steve Henson]
8843
8844 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8845 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8846 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8847 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8848 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8849 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8850 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8851 openssl verify ss.pem
8852 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8853 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8854 is OK.
8855 [Steve Henson]
8856
8857 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8858 (and add it to external session representation).
8859 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8860 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8861 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8862 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8863 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8864 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8865 security holes.
8866 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8867
8868 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8869 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8870 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8871 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8872
8873 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8874 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8875 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8876 [Steve Henson]
8877
8878 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8879 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8880 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8881 code.
8882 [Steve Henson]
8883
8884 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8885 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8886 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8887
8888 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8889 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8890 certificate auxiliary information.
8891 [Steve Henson]
8892
8893 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8894 the 'enc' command.
8895 [Steve Henson]
8896
8897 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8898 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8899 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8900 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8901 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8902 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8903 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8904 [Richard Levitte]
8905
8906 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8907 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8908 [Steve Henson]
8909
8910 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8911 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8912 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8913 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8914 [Steve Henson]
8915
8916 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8917 [Steve Henson]
8918
8919 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8920 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8921 [Steve Henson]
8922
8923 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8924 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8925 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8926 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8927 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8928 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8929 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8930 using the new 'x509' options.
8931
8932 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8933 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8934 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8935 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8936 for all purposes.
8937 [Steve Henson]
8938
8939 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8940 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8941 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8942 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8943 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8944 [Mark Cox]
8945
8946 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8947 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8948 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8949 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8950 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8951 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8952 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8953 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8954 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8955 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8956 [Steve Henson]
8957
8958 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8959 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8960 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8961 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8962 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8963 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8964 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8965 [Steve Henson]
8966
8967 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8968 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8969 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8970 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8971 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8972 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8973 openssl.cnf for more info.
8974 [Steve Henson]
8975
8976 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8977 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8978 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8979 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8980 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8981 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8982 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8983 md should be large enough anyway.
8984 [Bodo Moeller]
8985
8986 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8987 for handling the random seed file.
8988
8989 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8990 ca,
8991 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8992 s_client,
8993 s_server,
8994 x509 (when signing).
8995 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8996 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8997 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8998
8999 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
9000 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
9001 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
9002 that support '-rand'.
9003 [Bodo Moeller]
9004
9005 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
9006 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
9007 [Bodo Moeller]
9008
9009 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
9010 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
9011 [Bill Perry]
9012
9013 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
9014 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
9015 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
9016 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
9017 is suitable.
9018 [Steve Henson]
9019
9020 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
9021 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
9022 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
9023 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
9024 [Steve Henson]
9025
9026 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
9027 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
9028 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
9029 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
9030 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
9031 print out all the purposes.
9032 [Steve Henson]
9033
9034 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
9035 functions.
9036 [Steve Henson]
9037
9038 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
9039 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
9040 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
9041 single function call.
9042 [Steve Henson]
9043
9044 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
9045 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
9046 [Andy Polyakov]
9047
9048 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
9049 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
9050 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
9051 [Steve Henson]
9052
9053 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
9054 when producing the local key id.
9055 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9056
9057 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
9058 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
9059 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
9060 "server.pem".
9061 [Steve Henson]
9062
9063 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
9064 a public key to be input or output. For example:
9065 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
9066 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
9067 [Steve Henson]
9068
9069 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
9070 in the message. This was handled by allowing
9071 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
9072 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
9073
9074 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
9075 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
9076 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
9077 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9078
9079 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
9080 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
9081 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
9082 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9083 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9084 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9085 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9086 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9087 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9088 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9089 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9090 trivial: move one line.
9091 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9092
9093 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9094 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9095 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9096 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9097 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9098 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9099 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9100 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9101 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9102 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9103 with an event loop for example.
9104 [Steve Henson]
9105
9106 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9107 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9108 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9109 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9110 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9111 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9112 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9113 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9114 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9115 [Steve Henson]
9116
9117 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9118 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9119 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9120 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9121 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9122 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9123 [Steve Henson]
9124
9125 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9126 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9127 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9128 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9129
9130 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9131 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9132 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9133 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9134 key generation.
9135 [Steve Henson]
9136
9137 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9138 (still largely untested)
9139 [Bodo Moeller]
9140
9141 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9142 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9143 [Steve Henson]
9144
9145 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9146 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9147 [Steve Henson]
9148
9149 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9150 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9151 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9152 [Bodo Moeller]
9153
9154 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9155 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9156 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9157 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9158 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9159 [Steve Henson]
9160
9161 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9162 [Andy Polyakov]
9163
9164 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9165 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9166 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9167 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9168 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9169 in ca.
9170 [Steve Henson]
9171
9172 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9173 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9174 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9175 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9176 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9177 [Steve Henson]
9178
9179 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9180 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9181 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9182 are otherwise ignored at present.
9183 [Steve Henson]
9184
9185 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9186 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9187 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9188 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9189 copied until the next read.
9190 [Steve Henson]
9191
9192 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9193 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9194 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9195 [Steve Henson]
9196
9197 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9198 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9199 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9200 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9201 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9202 associated functions.
9203 [Steve Henson]
9204
9205 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9206 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9207 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9208 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9209 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9210 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9211 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9212 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9213 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9214 memory BIOs.
9215 [Steve Henson]
9216
9217 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9218 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9219 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9220 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9221 [Bodo Moeller]
9222
9223 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9224 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9225 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9226 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9227 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9228 functionality.
9229 [Steve Henson]
9230
9231 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9232 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9233 under Win32.
9234 [Steve Henson]
9235
9236 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9237 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9238 extensions to be obtained and added.
9239 [Steve Henson]
9240
9241 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9242 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9243 [Bodo Moeller]
9244
9245 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9246
9247 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9248 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9249
9250 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9251 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9252
9253 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9254 program.
9255 [Steve Henson]
9256
9257 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9258 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9259 DH parameters contain its length).
9260
9261 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9262 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9263 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9264 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9265 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9266 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9267 utter importance to use
9268 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9269 or
9270 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9271 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9272 attacks may become possible!
9273 [Bodo Moeller]
9274
9275 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9276 [Bodo Moeller]
9277
9278 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9279 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9280 [Steve Henson]
9281
9282 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9283 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9284 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9285 or long name.
9286 [Steve Henson]
9287
9288 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9289 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9290 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9291 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9292 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9293 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9294 private key operations.
9295 [Steve Henson]
9296
9297 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9298 [Andy Polyakov]
9299
9300 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9301 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9302 to
9303 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9304 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9305 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9306 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9307 the password callback is called.
9308 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9309
9310 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9311
9312 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9313 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9314 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9315 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9316 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9317 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9318 this will work.
9319
9320 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9321 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9322 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9323 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9324 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9325 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9326 [Bodo Moeller]
9327
9328 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9329 [Andy Polyakov]
9330
9331 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9332 delete an unused file.
9333 [Ulf Möller]
9334
9335 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9336 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9337 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9338 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9339 [Steve Henson]
9340
9341 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9342 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9343 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9344 of an error.
9345 [Bodo Moeller]
9346
9347 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9348 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9349 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9350
9351 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9352 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9353 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9354 comparison" warnings.
9355 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9356 [Steve Henson]
9357
9358 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9359 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9360 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9361 [Steve Henson]
9362
9363 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9364 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9365
9366 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9367 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9368
9369 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9370 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9371 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9372
9373 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9374 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9375 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9376 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9377 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9378 this bug.
9379 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9380
9381 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9382 The interface is as follows:
9383 Applications can use
9384 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9385 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9386 "off" is now the default.
9387 The library internally uses
9388 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9389 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9390 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9391
9392 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9393 even the default) are now avoided.
9394
9395 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9396 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9397 than just having a counter.
9398
9399 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9400
9401 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9402 extensions.
9403 [Bodo Moeller]
9404
9405 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9406 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9407 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9408 Initial "mode" flags are:
9409
9410 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9411 a single record has been written.
9412 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9413 retries use the same buffer location.
9414 (But all of the contents must be
9415 copied!)
9416 [Bodo Moeller]
9417
9418 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9419 worked.
9420
9421 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9422 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9423
9424 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9425 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9426 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9427 [Steve Henson]
9428
9429 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9430 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9431 test programs.
9432 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9433
9434 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9435 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9436 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9437 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9438 point to the end.
9439 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9440 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9441
9442 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9443 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9444 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9445 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9446 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9447 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9448 [Steve Henson]
9449
9450 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9451 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9452 necessary function names.
9453 [Steve Henson]
9454
9455 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9456 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9457 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9458 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9459 [Bodo Moeller]
9460
9461 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9462 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9463 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9464 [Steve Henson]
9465
9466 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9467 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9468 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9469 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9470 such programs?)
9471 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9472 need locks.
9473 [Bodo Moeller]
9474
9475 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9476 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9477 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9478 [Bodo Moeller]
9479
9480 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9481 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9482 appropriate.
9483 [Bodo Moeller]
9484
9485 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9486 for the encoded length.
9487 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9488
9489 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9490 [Steve Henson]
9491
9492 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9493 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9494 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9495 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9496 [Steve Henson]
9497
9498 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9499 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9500 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9501
9502 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9503 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9504 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9505 unusual formatting.
9506 [Steve Henson]
9507
9508 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9509 to use the new extension code.
9510 [Steve Henson]
9511
9512 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9513 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9514 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9515 constant.
9516 [Steve Henson]
9517
9518 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9519 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9520 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9521 [Bodo Moeller]
9522
9523 #if 0
9524 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9525 [Ben Laurie]
9526 #else
9527 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9528 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9529 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9530 #endif
9531
9532 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9533 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9534 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9535 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9536 [Ben Laurie]
9537
9538 *) DES library cleanups.
9539 [Ulf Möller]
9540
9541 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9542 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9543 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9544 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9545 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9546 of v2.0.
9547 [Steve Henson]
9548
9549 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9550 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9551 [Bodo Moeller]
9552
9553 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9554 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9555 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9556 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9557 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9558 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9559 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9560 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9561 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9562 [Steve Henson]
9563
9564 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9565 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9566 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9567 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9568 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9569 value doesn't matter.
9570 [Steve Henson]
9571
9572 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9573 support mutable.
9574 [Ben Laurie]
9575
9576 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9577 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9578 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9579 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9580
9581 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9582 [Ulf Möller]
9583
9584 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9585 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9586 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9587
9588 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9589 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9590
9591 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9592 [Ben Laurie]
9593
9594 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9595 [Ben Laurie]
9596
9597 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9598 [Ben Laurie]
9599
9600 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9601 [Bodo Moeller]
9602
9603
9604 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9605
9606 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9607
9608 *) Updated some demos.
9609 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9610
9611 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9612 [Wu Zhigang]
9613
9614 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9615 [Steve Henson]
9616
9617 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9618 [Steve Henson]
9619
9620 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9621 instead of using a fixed path.
9622 [Bodo Moeller]
9623
9624 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9625 [Andy Polyakov]
9626
9627 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9628 [Richard Levitte]
9629
9630
9631 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9632
9633 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9634 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9635 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9636
9637 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9638 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9639 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9640 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9641 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9642 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9643 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9644 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9645 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9646 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9647 [Steve Henson]
9648
9649 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9650 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9651 [Steve Henson]
9652
9653 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9654 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9655 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9656 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9657 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9658
9659 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9660 [Bodo Moeller]
9661
9662 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9663 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9664 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9665 [Steve Henson]
9666
9667 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9668 [Ben Laurie]
9669
9670 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9671 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9672 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9673 key elements as negative integers.
9674 [Steve Henson]
9675
9676 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9677 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9678
9679 *) VMS support.
9680 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9681
9682 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9683 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9684 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9685 [Steve Henson]
9686
9687 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9688 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9689 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9690 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9691 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9692 [Bodo Moeller]
9693
9694 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9695 [Ulf Möller]
9696
9697 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9698 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9699 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9700 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9701
9702 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9703 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9704 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9705
9706 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9707 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9708 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9709 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9710 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9711 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9712 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9713 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9714 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9715
9716 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9717 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9718 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9719 does not influence s as it used to.
9720
9721 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9722 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9723 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9724 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9725 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9726 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9727 [Bodo Moeller]
9728
9729 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9730 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9731 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9732 key type.
9733 [Steve Henson]
9734
9735 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9736 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9737 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9738 and 'x509').
9739 [Steve Henson]
9740
9741 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9742 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9743 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9744 extension option.
9745 [Steve Henson]
9746
9747 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9748 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9749 [Ben Laurie]
9750
9751 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9752 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9753
9754 *) Support Mingw32.
9755 [Ulf Möller]
9756
9757 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9758 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9759
9760 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9761 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9762
9763 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9764 [Ulf Möller]
9765
9766 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9767 [Anonymous]
9768
9769 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9770 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9771
9772 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9773 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9774 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9775 DER-encoded.)
9776 [Bodo Moeller]
9777
9778 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9779 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9780 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9781 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9782 now it really counts the depth.
9783 [Bodo Moeller]
9784
9785 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9786 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9787 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9788 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9789 didn't match the private key).
9790
9791 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9792 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9793 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9794 [Bodo Moeller]
9795
9796 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9797 [Ulf Möller]
9798
9799 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9800 David Harris.
9801 [Bodo Moeller]
9802
9803 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9804 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9805 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9806 [Bodo Moeller]
9807
9808 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9809 [Bodo Moeller]
9810
9811 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9812 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9813 such as /usr/local/bin.
9814 [Bodo Moeller]
9815
9816 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9817 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9818
9819 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9820 [Ulf Möller]
9821
9822 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9823 extension adding in x509 utility.
9824 [Steve Henson]
9825
9826 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9827 [Ulf Möller]
9828
9829 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9830 prototypes.
9831 [Steve Henson]
9832
9833 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9834 [Ulf Möller]
9835
9836 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9837 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9838 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9839 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9840 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9841 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9842 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9843 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9844 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9845 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9846 [Steve Henson]
9847
9848 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9849 [Bodo Moeller]
9850
9851 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9852 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9853 [Bodo Moeller]
9854
9855 *) Fix some race conditions.
9856 [Bodo Moeller]
9857
9858 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9859 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9860 [Steve Henson]
9861
9862 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9863 [Ulf Möller]
9864
9865 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9866 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9867 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9868 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9869
9870 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9871 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9872
9873 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9874 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9875 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9876
9877 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9878 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9879
9880 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9881 [Ulf Möller]
9882
9883 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9884 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9885
9886 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9887 [Ulf Möller]
9888
9889 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9890 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9891
9892 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9893 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9894 [Steve Henson]
9895
9896 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9897 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9898 [Ben Laurie]
9899
9900 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9901 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9902 [Steve Henson]
9903
9904 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9905 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9906 [Steve Henson]
9907
9908 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9909 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9910 [Steve Henson]
9911
9912 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9913 support typesafe stack.
9914 [Steve Henson]
9915
9916 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9917 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9918
9919 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9920 old X509V3 handling code.
9921 [Steve Henson]
9922
9923 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9924 [Ulf Möller]
9925
9926 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9927 [Bodo Moeller]
9928
9929 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9930 [Ben Laurie]
9931
9932 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9933 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9934
9935 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9936 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9937 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9938 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9939 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9940 [Ben Laurie]
9941
9942 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9943 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9944 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9945 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9946 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9947
9948 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9949 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9950 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9951 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9952
9953 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9954 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9955 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9956 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9957
9958 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9959 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9960 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9961 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9962 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9963 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9964 [Bodo Moeller]
9965
9966 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9967 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9968 [Bodo Moeller]
9969
9970 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9971 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9972 [Ulf Möller]
9973
9974 *) Tweaks to Configure
9975 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9976
9977 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9978 yet...
9979 [Steve Henson]
9980
9981 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9982 [Ulf Möller]
9983
9984 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9985 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9986 [Ulf Möller]
9987
9988 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9989 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9990 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9991 [Bodo Moeller]
9992
9993 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9994 [Bodo Moeller]
9995
9996 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9997 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9998 [Steve Henson]
9999
10000 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
10001 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
10002 to library startup routines.
10003 [Steve Henson]
10004
10005 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
10006 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
10007 codes along the way.
10008 [Steve Henson]
10009
10010 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
10011 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
10012 objects to objects.h
10013 [Steve Henson]
10014
10015 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
10016 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
10017 [Steve Henson]
10018
10019 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
10020 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
10021
10022 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
10023 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
10024 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
10025
10026 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
10027 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10028 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10029
10030 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
10031 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
10032 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
10033
10034
10035 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
10036
10037 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
10038 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
10039 [Ben Laurie]
10040
10041 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
10042 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
10043 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
10044 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
10045 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
10046
10047 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
10048 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
10049 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
10050 document.
10051 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10052
10053 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
10054 Malloc, Free.
10055 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
10056
10057 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
10058 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10059
10060 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
10061 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
10062 if someone would make that last step automatic.
10063 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
10064
10065 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
10066 [Ben Laurie]
10067
10068 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
10069 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
10070 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
10071 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
10072 [Steve Henson]
10073
10074 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
10075 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
10076 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
10077 [Steve Henson]
10078
10079 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
10080 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
10081 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
10082 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10083 installed as `perl').
10084 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10085
10086 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10087 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10088
10089 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10090 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
10091 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10092 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10093 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10094 [Steve Henson]
10095
10096 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10097 [Ben Laurie]
10098
10099 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10100 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10101 is horrible: I feel ill....
10102 [Steve Henson]
10103
10104 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10105 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10106 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10107 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10108 [Steve Henson]
10109
10110 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10111 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10112
10113 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10114 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10115 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10116 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10117
10118 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10119 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10120 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10121 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10122 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10123 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10124 openssl_bio.xs.
10125 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10126
10127 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10128 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10129
10130 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10131 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10132
10133 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10134 [Ben Laurie]
10135
10136 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10137 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10138 in CRLs.
10139 [Steve Henson]
10140
10141 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10142 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10143 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10144 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10145 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10146 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10147 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10148 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10149 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10150 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10151 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10152
10153 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10154 [Ben Laurie]
10155
10156 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10157 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10158 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10159 for linking it into DSOs.
10160 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10161
10162 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10163 Fixed.
10164 [Ben Laurie]
10165
10166 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10167 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10168 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10169 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10170 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10171 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10172
10173 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10174 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10175 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10176 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10177 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10178 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10179 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10180
10181 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10182 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10183 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10184 encryption.
10185 [Ben Laurie]
10186
10187 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10188 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10189 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10190 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10191 [Steve Henson]
10192
10193 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10194 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10195 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10196 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10197 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10198 field as blank.
10199 [Steve Henson]
10200
10201 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10202 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10203 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10204 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10205 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10206
10207 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10208 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10209 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10210
10211 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10212 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10213
10214 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10215 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10216 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10217 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10218 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10219 [Steve Henson]
10220
10221 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10222 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10223 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10224 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10225 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10226 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10227 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10228 [Ben Laurie]
10229
10230 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10231 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10232 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10233 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10234 [Ben Laurie]
10235
10236 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10237 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10238
10239 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10240 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10241 [Steve Henson]
10242
10243 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10244 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10245 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10246 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10247 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10248 (e.g. s_server).
10249 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10250 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10251 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10252 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10253 no way to reconfigure them.
10254 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10255 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10256 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10257 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10258 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10259 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10260
10261 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10262 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10263 recognized by the users.
10264 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10265
10266 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10267 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10268 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10269 already masked variable.
10270 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10271
10272 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10273 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10274
10275 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10276 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10277 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10278 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10279
10280 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10281 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10282 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10283
10284 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10285 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10286 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10287 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10288 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10289 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10290 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10291 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10292 now, too.
10293 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10294
10295 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10296 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10297 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10298
10299 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10300 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10301 config file.
10302 [Steve Henson]
10303
10304 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10305 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10306
10307 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10308 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10309 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10310 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10311 [Ben Laurie]
10312
10313 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10314 [Steve Henson]
10315
10316 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10317 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10318
10319 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10320 [Ben Laurie]
10321
10322 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10323 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10324 [Steve Henson]
10325
10326 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10327 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10328 [Steve Henson]
10329
10330 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10331 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10332 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10333 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10334 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10335 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10336 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10337 Ben Laurie]
10338
10339 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10340 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10341
10342 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10343 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10344 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10345 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10346 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10347
10348 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10349 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10350 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10351 [Steve Henson]
10352
10353 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10354 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10355 an example.
10356 [Steve Henson]
10357
10358 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10359 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10360 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10361
10362 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10363 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10364 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10365 build instructions.
10366 [Steve Henson]
10367
10368 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10369 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10370 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10371 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10372 [Steve Henson]
10373
10374 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10375 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10376 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10377 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10378 [Ben Laurie]
10379
10380 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10381 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10382 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10383 so it wasn't spotted.
10384 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10385
10386 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10387 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10388 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10389 vectors if you have them.
10390 [Ben Laurie]
10391
10392 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10393 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10394 [Ben Laurie]
10395
10396 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10397 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10398 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10399 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10400 If you do a:
10401 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10402 it will update them.
10403 [Steve Henson]
10404
10405 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10406 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10407 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10408 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10409 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10410 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10411 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10412 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10413
10414 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10415 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10416 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10417 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10418 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10419 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10420 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10421 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10422 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10423 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10424
10425 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10426 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10427 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10428 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10429 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10430 [Steve Henson]
10431
10432 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10433 INTEGER code.
10434 [Steve Henson]
10435
10436 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10437 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10438
10439 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10440 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10441
10442 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10443 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10444 [Ben Laurie]
10445
10446 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10447 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10448
10449 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10450 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10451
10452 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10453 [Steve Henson]
10454
10455 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10456 few typos.
10457 [Steve Henson]
10458
10459 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10460 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10461 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10462 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10463
10464 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10465 [Steve Henson]
10466
10467 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10468 [Steve Henson]
10469
10470 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10471 [Steve Henson]
10472
10473 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10474 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10475 [Steve Henson]
10476
10477 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10478 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10479 CA extensions.
10480 [Steve Henson]
10481
10482 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10483 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10484 [Steve Henson]
10485
10486 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10487 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10488 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10489 [Steve Henson]
10490
10491 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10492 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10493 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10494 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10495 properly to be processed.
10496 [Steve Henson]
10497
10498 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10499 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10500 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10501 [Ben Laurie]
10502
10503 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10504 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10505
10506 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10507 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10508 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10509 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10510 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10511 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10512 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10513 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10514 or delete all the .err files.
10515 [Steve Henson]
10516
10517 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10518 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10519 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10520 to regenerate it if needed.
10521 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10522 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10523
10524 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10525 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10526
10527 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10528 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10529 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10530 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10531 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10532 [Steve Henson]
10533
10534 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10535 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10536
10537 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10538 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10539
10540 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10541 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10542 error, but didn't set one).
10543 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10544
10545 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10546 [Ben Laurie]
10547
10548 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10549 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10550 [Steve Henson]
10551
10552 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10553 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10554
10555 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10556 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10557 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10558 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10559 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10560 OID is not part of the table.
10561 [Steve Henson]
10562
10563 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10564 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10565 [Ben Laurie]
10566
10567 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10568 [Ben Laurie]
10569
10570 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10571 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10572 was "1234").
10573 [Steve Henson]
10574
10575 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10576 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10577
10578 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10579 NULL pointers.
10580 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10581
10582 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10583 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10584
10585 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10586 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10587
10588 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10589 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10590
10591 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10592 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10593 [Ben Laurie]
10594
10595 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10596 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10597 [Steve Henson]
10598
10599 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10600 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10601
10602 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10603 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10604
10605 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10606 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10607
10608 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10609 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10610
10611 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10612 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10613 unused in the certificate verification process.
10614 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10615
10616 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10617 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10618 [Steve Henson]
10619
10620 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10621 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10622 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10623
10624 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10625 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10626 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10627 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10628 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10629
10630 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10631 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10632 [Steve Henson]
10633
10634 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10635 [Steve Henson]
10636
10637 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10638 [Paul Sutton]
10639
10640 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10641 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10642
10643 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10644 [Ben Laurie]
10645
10646 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10647 [Ben Laurie]
10648
10649 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10650 [Ben Laurie]
10651
10652 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10653 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10654 other error libraries.
10655 [Steve Henson]
10656
10657 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10658 [Steve Henson]
10659
10660 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10661 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10662 be read in.
10663 [Steve Henson]
10664
10665 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10666 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10667 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10668 the new set of documenation files.
10669 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10670
10671 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10672 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10673 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10674 number of arguments.
10675 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10676
10677 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10678 [Ben Laurie]
10679
10680 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10681 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10682 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10683
10684 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10685 [Ben Laurie]
10686
10687 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10688 nextstep
10689 ncr-scde
10690 unixware-2.0
10691 unixware-2.0-pentium
10692 sco5-cc.
10693 [Ben Laurie]
10694
10695 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10696 before they are needed.
10697 [Ben Laurie]
10698
10699 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10700 [Ben Laurie]
10701
10702
10703 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10704
10705 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10706 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10707 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10708
10709 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10710 [Paul Sutton]
10711
10712 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10713 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10714 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10715
10716 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10717 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10718 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10719
10720 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10721 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10722 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10723
10724 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10725 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10726
10727 *) Updated the README file.
10728 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10729
10730 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10731 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10732 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10733
10734 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10735 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10736 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10737
10738 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10739 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
10740 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
10741 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
10742 o removed obsolete TODO file
10743 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
10744 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10745
10746 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
10747 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
10748 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
10749 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
10750 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
10751 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10752 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10753
10754 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10755 [Mark J. Cox]
10756
10757 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10758 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10759 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10760 summer 1998.
10761 [The OpenSSL Project]
10762
10763
10764 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]

10768
10769 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
10770 [Eric A. Young]
10771
10772 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
10773 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
10774 [Eric A. Young]
10775
10776 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
10777 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
10778 available).
10779 [Eric A. Young]
10780
10781 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
10782 binary structures
10783 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
10784
10785 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
10786 [Eric A. Young]
10787
10788 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
10789 [Eric A. Young]
10790
10791 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
10792 [Eric A. Young]
10793
10794 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
10795 [Eric A. Young]
10796
10797 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
10798 [Eric A. Young]
10799
10800 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.

10802
10803 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
10804 [Eric A. Young]
10805
10806 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
10807 [Eric A. Young]
10808
10809 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
10810 [Eric A. Young]
10811
10812 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
10813 [Eric A. Young]
10814
10815 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
10816 [Eric A. Young]
10817
10818 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
10819 [Eric A. Young]
10820
10821 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
10822 [Eric A. Young]
10823
10824 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
10825 [Eric A. Young]
10826
10827 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
10828 [Eric A. Young]
10829
10830 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
10831 [Eric A. Young]
10832
10833 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
10834 [Eric A. Young]
10835
10836 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
10837 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
10838 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
10839 [Eric A. Young]
10840
10841 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
10842 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
10843 [Eric A. Young]
10844
10845 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
10846 [Eric A. Young]
10847
10848 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
10849 [Eric A. Young]
10850
10851 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
10852 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
10853 [Eric A. Young]
10854
10855 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
10856 [Eric A. Young]
10857
10858 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
10859 [Eric A. Young]
10860

10862 bytes sent in the client random.
10863 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
10864
