2 OpenSSL CHANGES
3 _______________
4
5 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
8 [Richard Levitte]
9
10 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
11 it is always safe to #include a header now.
12 [Rich Salz]
13
14 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
15 [Richard Levitte]
16
17 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
18 [Rich Salz]
19
20 *) Add support for HKDF.
21 [Alessandro Ghedini]
22
23 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
24 [Bill Cox]
25
26 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
27 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
28 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
29 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
30 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
31 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
32 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
33 [Matt Caswell]
34
35 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
36 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
37 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
38 [Catriona Lucey]
39
40 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
41 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
42 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
43 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
44 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
45 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
46 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
47
48 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
49 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
50 [Todd Short]
51
52 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
53 [Todd Short]
54
55 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
56 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
57 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
58 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
59 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
60 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
61 default cipherlist.
62 [Emilia Käsper]
63
64 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
65 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
66 [Rich Salz]
67
68 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
69 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
70 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
71 [Matt Caswell]
72
73 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
74 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
75 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
76 implemented by other servers.
77 [Emilia Käsper]
78
79 *) Add X25519 support.
80 Integrate support for X25519 into EC library. This includes support
81 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
82 draft-josefsson-pkix-newcurves-01: specifically X25519 uses the
83 OID from that draft, encodes public keys using little endian
84 format in the ECPoint structure and private keys using
85 little endian form in the privateKey field of the ECPrivateKey
86 structure. TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-06
87 and uses X25519(29).
88
89 Note: the current version supports key generation, public and
90 private key encoding and ECDH key agreement using the EC API.
91 Low level point operations such as EC_POINT_add(), EC_POINT_mul()
92 are NOT supported.
93 [Steve Henson]
94
95 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
96 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
97 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
98 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
99 seed, even if the seed is configured.
100
101 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
102 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
103 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
104 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
105 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
106 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
107 that of a valid user.
108 [Emilia Käsper]
109
110 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
111 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
112 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
113 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
114
115 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
116 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
117
118 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
119 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
120 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
121 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
122
123 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
124 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
125 irrelevant.
126 [Richard Levitte]
127
128 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
129 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
130 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
131 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
132 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
133 of how OpenSSL was configured.
134
135 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
136 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
137 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
138 [Richard Levitte]
139
140 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
141 [Rich Salz]
142
143 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
144 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
145 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
146 removed.
147 [Richard Levitte]
148
149 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
150 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
151 old #define's might need to be updated.
152 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
153
154 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
155 [Rich Salz]
156
157 *) New "unified" build system
158
159 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
160 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
161
162 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
163 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
164 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
165
166 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
167 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
168 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
169 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
170 descrip.mms.tmpl.
171
172 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
173 [Richard Levitte]
174
175 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
176 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
177 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
178 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
179 [Matt Caswell]
180
181 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
182 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
183
184 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
185 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
186 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
187 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
188 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
189 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
190 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
191 have been adapted accordingly.
192 [Richard Levitte]
193
194 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
195 the leading 0-byte.
196 [Emilia Käsper]
197
198 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
199 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
200 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
201 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
202 [Emilia Käsper]
203
204 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
205 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
206 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
207 'unsigned char*'.
208 [Emilia Käsper]
209
210 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
211 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
212 [Emilia Käsper]
213
214 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
215 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
216 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
217 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
218 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
219 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
220 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
221
222 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
223 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
224
225 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
226 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
227 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
228 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
229 Text::Template.
230
231 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
232 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
233 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
234 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
235 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
236 %target).
237 [Richard Levitte]
238
239 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
240 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
241 straightforward and less interdependent.
242
243 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
244 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
245 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
246
247 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
248 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
249 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
250 installed.
251 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
252 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
253 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
254 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
255
256 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
257 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
258 [Richard Levitte]
259
260 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
261 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
262 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
263 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
264 is present).
265 [Matt Caswell]
266
267 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
268 configuring.
269 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
270
271 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
272 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
273 before trying to build now.*
274 [Rich Salz]
275
276 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
277 has changed.
278 [Rich Salz]
279
280 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
281
282 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
283 the application's responsibility. The application provides
284 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
285 used to authenticate the peer.
286
287 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
288 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
289 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
290 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
291 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
292 [Viktor Dukhovni]
293
294 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
295 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
296 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
297 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
298 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
299 or the 1.1.0 releases.
300
301 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
302 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
303 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
304 support for the deprecated features from the library and
305 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
306 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
307 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
308 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
309 version.
310
311 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
312 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
313 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
314 compile with later releases.
315
316 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
317 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
318 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
319 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
320 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
321 [Viktor Dukhovni]
322
323 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
324 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
325 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
326 MaxProtcol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
327 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
328 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
329 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
330 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
331 [Kurt Roeckx]
332
333 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
334 [Andy Polyakov]
335
336 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
337 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
338 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
339 ECDSA_SIG format.
340
341 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
342 include the ec.h header file instead.
343 [Steve Henson]
344
345 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
346 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
347 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
348 [Kurt Roeckx]
349
350 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
351 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
352 were added:
353
354 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
355 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
356
357 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
358 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
359 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
360
361 Additional changes:
362 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
363 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
364 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
365 an already created structure.
366 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
367 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
368 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
369 for deprecated builds.
370 [Richard Levitte]
371
372 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
373 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
374 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
375 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
376 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
377 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
378 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
379 [Matt Caswell]
380
381 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
382 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
383 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
384 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
385 [Kurt Roeckx]
386
387 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
388 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
389 [Kurt Roeckx]
390
391 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
392 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
393 [Kurt Roeckx]
394
395 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
396 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
397 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
398 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
399 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
400 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
401 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
402 also been removed.
403 [Matt Caswell]
404
405 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
406 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
407 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
408 [Rich Salz]
409
410 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
411 [Rich Salz]
412
413 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
414 sureware and ubsec.
415 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
416
417 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
418
419 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
420 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
421
422 FOO *x;
423
424 it must be:
425
426 FOO x;
427
428 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
429 set a mandatory field to NULL.
430
431 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
432 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
433 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
434 SEQUENCE OF.
435 [Steve Henson]
436
437 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
438 [Emilia Käsper]
439
440 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
441 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
442 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
443 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
444 [Matt Caswell]
445
446 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
447 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
448 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
449 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
450 [Emilia Käsper]
451
452 *) Fix no-stdio build.
453 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
454 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
455
456 *) New testing framework
457 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
458 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
459 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
460 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
461 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
462 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
463
464 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
465
466 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
467 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
468
469 [Richard Levitte]
470
471 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
472 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
473 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
474 and others were changed. All are now documented.
475 [Rich Salz]
476
477 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
478 return an error
479 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
480
481 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
482 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
483
484 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
485 original RSA_PSK patch.
486 [Steve Henson]
487
488 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
489 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
490 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
491 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
492 [Matt Caswell]
493
494 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
495 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
496 [Richard Levitte]
497
498 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
499 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
500 hasn't been working properly for a while.
501 [Emilia Käsper]
502
503 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
504 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
505 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
506 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
507 transferred.
508 [Matt Caswell]
509
510 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
511 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
512 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
513 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
514 [Matt Caswell]
515
516 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
517 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
518 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
519 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
520 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
521 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
522 [Matt Caswell]
523
524 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
525 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
526 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
527 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
528 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
529 header file has been removed.
530 [Matt Caswell]
531
532 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
533 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
534 [Matt Caswell]
535
536 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
537 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
538 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
539
540 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
541 Added a test.
542 [Rich Salz]
543
544 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
545 [Rich Salz]
546
547 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
548 sha256
549 [Rich Salz]
550
551 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
552 [Matt Caswell]
553
554 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
555 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
556 initial patch which was a great help during development.
557 [Steve Henson]
558
559 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
560 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
561 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
562 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
563 [Matt Caswell]
564
565 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
566 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
567 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
568 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
569 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
570 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
571 [Matt Caswell]
572
573 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
574 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
575 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
576 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
577 [Matt Caswell]
578
579 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
580 compatible client hello.
581 [Kurt Roeckx]
582
583 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
584 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
585 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
586
587 *) CA.sh has been removmed; use CA.pl instead.
588 [Rich Salz]
589
590 *) Removed old DES API.
591 [Rich Salz]
592
593 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
594 Sony NEWS4
595 BEOS and BEOS_R5
596 NeXT
597 SUNOS
598 MPE/iX
599 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
600 DGUX
601 NCR
602 Tandem
603 Cray
604 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
605 [Rich Salz]
606
607 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
608 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
609 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
610 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
611 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
612 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
613 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
614 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
615 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
616 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
617 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
618 [Rich Salz]
619
620 *) Cleaned up dead code
621 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
622 [Rich Salz]
623
624 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
625 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
626 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
627 [Rich Salz]
628
629 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
630 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
631 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
632 [Rich Salz]
633
634 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
635 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
636 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
637
638 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
639 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
640 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
641
642 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
643 compilation flags.
644 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
645
646 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
647 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
648 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
649
650 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
651 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
652
653 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
654 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
655 server.
656
657 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
658 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
659 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
660 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
661
662 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
663 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
664 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
665 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
666
667 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
668 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
669 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
670
671 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
672 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
673 [Steve Henson]
674
675 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
676
677 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
678 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
679
680 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
681 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
682
683 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
684 effect.
685
686 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
687
688 [Steve Henson]
689
690 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
691 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
692 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
693 algorithms and include tests cases.
694 [Steve Henson]
695
696 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
697 enveloped data.
698 [Steve Henson]
699
700 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
701 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
702 [Steve Henson]
703
704 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
705 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
706
707 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
708 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
709 [Steve Henson]
710
711 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
712 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
713 failures.
714 [Steve Henson]
715
716 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
717 sign or verify all in one operation.
718 [Steve Henson]
719
720 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
721 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
722 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
723 [Steve Henson]
724
725 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
726 [Steve Henson]
727
728 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
729 [Steve Henson]
730
731 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
732 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
733 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
734 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
735 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
736 [Steve Henson]
737
738 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
739 based on NID.
740 [Steve Henson]
741
742 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
743 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
744 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
745 [Steve Henson]
746
747 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
748 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
749 [Steve Henson]
750
751 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
752 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
753
754 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
755 POST to handle HMAC cases.
756 [Steve Henson]
757
758 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
759 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
760 [Steve Henson]
761
762 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
763 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
764 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
765 [Steve Henson]
766
767 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
768 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
769 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
770 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
771 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
772 requested amount of entropy.
773 [Steve Henson]
774
775 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
776 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
777 [Steve Henson]
778
779 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
780 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
781 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
782 support.
783 [Steve Henson]
784
785 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
786 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
787 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
788 [Steve Henson]
789
790 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
791 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
792 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
793 will never use XTS mode.
794 [Steve Henson]
795
796 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
797 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
798 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
799 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
800 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
801 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
802 [Steve Henson]
803
804 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
805 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
806 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
807 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
808 [Steve Henson]
809
810 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
811 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
812 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
813 [Steve Henson]
814
815 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
816 [Steve Henson]
817
818 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
819 [Steve Henson]
820
821 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
822 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
823 [Steve Henson]
824
825 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
826 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
827 [Steve Henson]
828
829 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
830 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
831 [Steve Henson]
832
833 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
834 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
835 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
836 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
837 and rename any affected symbols.
838 [Steve Henson]
839
840 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
841 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
842 [Steve Henson]
843
844 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
845 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
846 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
847 [Steve Henson]
848
849 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
850 [Steve Henson]
851
852 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
853 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
854 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
855 [Steve Henson]
856
857 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
858 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
859 [Steve Henson]
860
861 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
862 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
863 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
864 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
865 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
866 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
867 set before the key.
868 [Steve Henson]
869
870 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
871 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
872 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
873 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
874 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
875 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
876 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
877 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
878 [Steve Henson]
879
880 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
881 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
882 [Steve Henson]
883
884 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
885
886 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
887 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
888
889 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
890 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
891 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
892 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
893 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
894 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
895
896 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
897 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
898 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
899 security.
900 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
901
902 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
903 parameters by name.
904 [Steve Henson]
905
906 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
907 Add CMAC pkey methods.
908 [Steve Henson]
909
910 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
911 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
912 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
913 [Steve Henson]
914
915 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
916 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
917 multi-process servers.
918 [Steve Henson]
919
920 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
921 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
922 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
923 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
924 RAND_METHOD structure.
925 [Steve Henson]
926
927 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
928 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
929 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
930 whose return value is often ignored.
931 [Steve Henson]
932
933 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
934 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
935 validated when establishing a connection.
936 [Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>]
937
938 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
939
940 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
941 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
942 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
943 [Viktor Dukhovni]
944
945 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
946 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
947 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
948 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
949 will need to explicitly call either of:
950
951 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
952 or
953 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
954
955 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
956 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
957 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
958 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
959 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
960 (CVE-2016-0800)
961 [Viktor Dukhovni]
962
963 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
964
965 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
966 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
967 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
968 considered rare.
969
970 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
971 libFuzzer.
972 (CVE-2016-0705)
973 [Stephen Henson]
974
975 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
976
977 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
978
979 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
980 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
981 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
982 is configured.
983
984 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
985 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
986 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
987 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
988 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
989 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
990 that of a valid user.
991 (CVE-2016-0798)
992 [Emilia Käsper]
993
994 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
995
996 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
997 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
998 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
999 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
1000 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
1001 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
1002 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
1003 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
1004 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
1005 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
1006 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
1007
1008 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
1009 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
1010 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
1011 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
1012 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
1013
1014 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
1015 (CVE-2016-0797)
1016 [Matt Caswell]
1017
1018 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
1019
1020 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
1021 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
1022 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
1023
1024 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
1025 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
1026 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
1027 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
1028 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
1029 also occur.
1030
1031 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
1032 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
1033 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
1034 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
1035 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
1036 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
1037 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
1038 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
1039 as command line arguments.
1040
1041 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
1042 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
1043 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.

1046 (CVE-2016-0799)
1047 [Matt Caswell]
1048
1049 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
1050
1051 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
1052 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
1053 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
1054 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
1055 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
1056
1057 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
1058 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
1059 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
1060 http://cachebleed.info.

1063
1064 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
1065 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
1066 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
1067 apps to use 2048 bits by default.

1069
1070 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
1071 *) DH small subgroups
1072
1073 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
1074 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
1075 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
1076 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
1077 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
1078 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
1079 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
1080 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
1081 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
1082 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
1083
1084 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
1085 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
1086 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
1087 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
1088 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
1089
1090 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
1091 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
1092 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
1093 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
1094
1095 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
1096 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
1097

1100 [Matt Caswell]
1101
1102 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
1103
1104 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
1105 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
1106 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
1107 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

1115
1116 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
1117
1118 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
1119 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
1120 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
1121 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
1122 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
1123 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
1124 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
1125 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
1126 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
1127 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
1128 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
1129 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

1133 [Andy Polyakov]
1134
1135 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
1136
1137 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
1138 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
1139 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
1140 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
1141 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
1142 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
1143 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
1144 authentication.

1149
1150 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
1151
1152 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
1153 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
1154 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
1155 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.

1161
1162 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.

1173
1174 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
1175
1176 During certificate verfification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
1177 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
1178 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
1179 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
1180 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
1181 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.

1195
1196 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
1197
1198 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
1199 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
1200 field.
1201
1202 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
1203 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
1204 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
1205 client authentication enabled.
1206
1207 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.

1209 [Andy Polyakov]
1210
1211 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
1212
1213 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
1214 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
1215 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
1216 time string.
1217
1218 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
1219 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
1220 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
1221 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
1222 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
1223 callbacks.

1229
1230 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
1231
1232 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
1233 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
1234 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
1235
1236 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
1237 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
1238 servers are not affected.

1243
1244 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
1245
1246 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
1247 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
1248 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
1249 the CMS code.

1269 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
1270
1271 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
1272 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
1273 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
1274
1275 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
1276 University.
1277 (CVE-2015-0291)
1278 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
1279
1280 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
1281
1282 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
1283 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
1284 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
1285 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
1286 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
1287 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
1288 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
1289 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
1290
1291 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
1292 (CVE-2015-0290)
1293 [Matt Caswell]
1294
1295 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
1296
1297 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
1298 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
1299 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
1300 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
1301 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
1302 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
1303 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
1304 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
1305 server.

1307 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
1308 (CVE-2015-0207)
1309 [Matt Caswell]
1310
1311 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
1312
1313 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
1314 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
1315 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
1316 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
1317 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
1318 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
1319 (CVE-2015-0286)
1320 [Stephen Henson]
1321
1322 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
1323
1324 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
1325 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
1326 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
1327 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
1328 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
1329 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
1330 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.

1332 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
1333 (CVE-2015-0208)
1334 [Stephen Henson]
1335
1336 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
1337
1338 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
1339 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
1340 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
1341
1342 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
1343 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
1344 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
1345 not affected.
1346 (CVE-2015-0287)
1347 [Stephen Henson]
1348
1349 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
1350
1351 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
1352 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
1353 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
1354
1355 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
1356 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
1357 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
1358

1361 [Emilia Käsper]
1362
1363 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
1364
1365 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
1366 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
1367 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.

1369 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
1370 (OpenSSL development team).
1371 (CVE-2015-0293)
1372 [Emilia Käsper]
1373
1374 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
1375
1376 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
1377 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
1378 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
1379 (CVE-2015-1787)
1380 [Matt Caswell]
1381
1382 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
1383
1384 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
1385 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
1386 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
1387 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
1388 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
1389 SSL_client_methodv23)
1390 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
1391 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
1392
1393 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
1394 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
1395 output may be predictable.
1396
1397 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
1398 succeed on an unpatched platform:
1399
1400 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA

1403
1404 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
1405
1406 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
1407 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
1408 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
1409 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
1410 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
1411 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
1412
1413 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their

1421 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.

1430 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
1431
1432 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
1433 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
1434 So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
1435 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
1436 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
1437 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.

1447
1448 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)

1450 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1451 [Bodo Moeller]
1452
1453 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
1454 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
1455 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
1456 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
1457 [Andy Polyakov]
1458
1459 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
1460 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
1461
1462 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
1463 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases

1467
1468 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
1469 [Andy Polyakov]
1470
1471 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
1472 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
1473 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.

1478 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
1479
1480 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
1481 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
1482 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
1483 for TLS encrypt.
1484
1485 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
1486 [Andy Polyakov]
1487
1488 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
1489 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
1490 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
1491 [Steve Henson]
1492
1493 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1494 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1495 [Steve Henson]
1496
1497 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1498 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1499 [Steve Henson]
1500
1501 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1502 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1503 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1504 algorithms and include tests cases.
1505 [Steve Henson]

1507 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
1508 structure.
1509 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]

1512 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
1513 [Steve Henson]
1514
1515 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
1516 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
1517 summary of the connection parameters.
1518 [Steve Henson]
1519
1520 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
1521 of connection parameters.
1522 [Steve Henson]
1523
1524 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
1525 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
1526
1527 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
1528 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
1529 [Steve Henson]
1530
1531 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
1532 [Steve Henson]
1533
1534 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
1535 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
1536 [Steve Henson]
1537
1538 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
1539 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
1540 [Steve Henson]
1541
1542 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
1543 certificates.
1544 [Steve Henson]
1545
1546 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
1547 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
1548 CRLs using the OCSP API.
1549 [Steve Henson]
1550
1551 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
1552 [Steve Henson]
1553
1554 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
1555 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
1556 [Steve Henson]
1557
1558 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
1559 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
1560 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
1561 tracing.
1562 [Steve Henson]
1563
1564 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
1565 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
1566 [Steve Henson]
1567
1568 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
1569 OID NID.
1570 [Steve Henson]
1571
1572 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
1573 client to OpenSSL.
1574 [Steve Henson]
1575
1576 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
1577 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
1578 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
1579 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
1580 [Steve Henson]
1581
1582 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
1583 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
1584 [Steve Henson]
1585
1586 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
1587 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
1588 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
1589 comparison.
1590 [Steve Henson]
1591
1592 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
1593 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
1594 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
1595 use the certificate.
1596 [Steve Henson]
1597
1598 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
1599 [Steve Henson]
1600
1601 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
1602 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
1603 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
1604 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
1605 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
1606 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
1607 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
1608
1609 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
1610 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
1611
1612 [Steve Henson]
1613
1614 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
1615 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
1616 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
1617 [Steve Henson]
1618
1619 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
1620 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
1621 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
1622 supported signature algorithms.
1623 [Steve Henson]
1624
1625 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
1626 [Steve Henson]
1627
1628 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
1629 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
1630 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
1631 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
1632 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
1633 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
1634 certificate and specify the whole chain.
1635 [Steve Henson]
1636
1637 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
1638 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
1639 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
1640 to have similar checks in it.
1641
1642 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
1643 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
1644 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
1645 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
1646 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
1647 [Steve Henson]
1648
1649 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
1650 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
1651 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
1652 shared signature algorithms.
1653 [Steve Henson]
1654
1655 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
1656 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
1657 to support them.
1658 [Steve Henson]
1659
1660 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
1661 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
1662 it couldn't be removed.
1663 [Steve Henson]
1664
1665 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
1666 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
1667 [Steve Henson]
1668
1669 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
1670 functions. Add manual page.
1671 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
1672
1673 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
1674 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
1675 a certificate.
1676 [Steve Henson]
1677
1678 *) Fix OCSP checking.
1679 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
1680
1681 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
1682 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
1683 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
1684 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
1685 utility) or reject.
1686 [Steve Henson]
1687
1688 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
1689 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
1690 [Steve Henson]
1691
1692 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
1693 platform support for Linux and Android.
1694 [Andy Polyakov]
1695
1696 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
1697 [Andy Polyakov]
1698
1699 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1700 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
1701 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
1702 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
1703 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
1704 [Steve Henson]
1705
1706 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
1707 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
1708 the new parameter format automatically.
1709 [Steve Henson]
1710
1711 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
1712 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
1713 [Steve Henson]
1714
1715 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
1716 [Steve Henson]
1717
1718 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
1719 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
1720 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
1721 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
1722 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
1723 [Steve Henson]
1724
1725 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
1726 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
1727 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
1728 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
1729 to set list of supported curves.
1730 [Steve Henson]
1731
1732 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
1733 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
1734 to print out received values.
1735 [Steve Henson]
1736
1737 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
1738 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
1739 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
1740 [Steve Henson]
1741
1742 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
1743 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
1744 [Steve Henson]
1745
1746 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
1747 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
1748 [Steve Henson]
1749
1750 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
1751 certificates.
1752 [Steve Henson]
1753
1754 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
1755 the certificate.
1756 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
1757 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
1758 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
1759
1760 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
1761
1762 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
1763 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
1764
1765 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
1766
1767 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
1768 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
1769 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
1770 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
1771 (CVE-2014-3571)
1772 [Steve Henson]
1773
1774 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
1775 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
1776 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
1777 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
1778 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
1779 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
1780 (CVE-2015-0206)
1781 [Matt Caswell]
1782
1783 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
1784 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
1785 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
1786 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
1787 (CVE-2014-3569)
1788 [Kurt Roeckx]
1789
1790 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
1791 ECDH ciphersuites.
1792
1793 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
1794 reporting this issue.
1795 (CVE-2014-3572)
1796 [Steve Henson]
1797
1798 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
1799 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
1800 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
1801 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
1802 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
1803 INRIA or reporting this issue.
1804 (CVE-2015-0204)
1805 [Steve Henson]
1806
1807 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
1808 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
1809 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
1810 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
1811 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
1812 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
1813 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
1814 this issue.
1815 (CVE-2015-0205)
1816 [Steve Henson]
1817
1818 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
1819 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
1820
1821 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
1822 and can vary with the CTX.
1823 [Adam Langley]
1824
1825 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
1826
1827 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
1828 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
1829 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
1830 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
1831 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
1832
1833 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
1834
1835 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
1836 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
1837
1838 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
1839
1840 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
1841 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
1842 errors for some broken certificates.
1843
1844 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
1845
1846 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
1847
1848 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
1849 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
1850
1851 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
1852 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
1853 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
1854 (negative or with leading zeroes).
1855
1856 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
1857 of the OpenSSL core team.
1858
1859 (CVE-2014-8275)
1860 [Steve Henson]
1861
1862 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
1863 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
1864 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
1865 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
1866 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
1867 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
1868 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
1869 the OpenSSL core team.
1870 (CVE-2014-3570)
1871 [Andy Polyakov]
1872
1873 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
1874 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
1875 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
1876 sanity and breaks all known clients.
1877 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
1878
1879 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
1880 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
1881 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
1882 [Emilia Käsper]
1883
1884 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
1885 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
1886 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1887 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
1888 announced in the initial ServerHello.
1889
1890 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
1891 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1892 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
1893 [Emilia Käsper]
1894
1895 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
1896
1897 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
1898
1899 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
1900 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
1901 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
1902 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
1903 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
1904 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
1905 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
1906
1907 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
1908 (CVE-2014-3513)
1909 [OpenSSL team]
1910
1911 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
1912
1913 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
1914 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
1915 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
1916 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
1917 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
1918 attack.
1919 (CVE-2014-3567)
1920 [Steve Henson]
1921
1922 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
1923
1924 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
1925 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
1926 configured to send them.
1927 (CVE-2014-3568)
1928 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
1929
1930 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
1931 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
1932 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
1933 (CVE-2014-3566)
1934 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1935
1936 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
1937
1938 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
1939 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
1940 DigestInfo structures.
1941
1942 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
1943
1944 [Steve Henson]
1945
1946 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
1947
1948 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
1949 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
1950 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
1951
1952 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
1953 Group for discovering this issue.
1954 (CVE-2014-3512)
1955 [Steve Henson]
1956
1957 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
1958 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
1959 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
1960 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
1961 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
1962
1963 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
1964 researching this issue.
1965 (CVE-2014-3511)
1966 [David Benjamin]
1967
1968 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
1969 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
1970 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
1971 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
1972
1973 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
1974 issue.
1975 (CVE-2014-3510)
1976 [Emilia Käsper]
1977
1978 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
1979 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1980 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1981 (CVE-2014-3507)
1982 [Adam Langley]
1983
1984 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
1985 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
1986 Denial of Service attack.
1987 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1988 (CVE-2014-3506)
1989 [Adam Langley]
1990
1991 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
1992 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
1993 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1994 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
1995 this issue.
1996 (CVE-2014-3505)
1997 [Adam Langley]
1998
1999 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
2000 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
2001 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
2002
2003 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
2004 issue.
2005 (CVE-2014-3509)
2006 [Gabor Tyukasz]
2007
2008 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
2009 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
2010 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
2011 Denial of Service attack.
2012
2013 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
2014 discovering and researching this issue.
2015 (CVE-2014-5139)
2016 [Steve Henson]
2017
2018 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
2019 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
2020 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
2021 output to the attacker.
2022
2023 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
2024 (CVE-2014-3508)
2025 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
2026
2027 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2028 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2029 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2030 [Bodo Moeller]
2031
2032 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]

2034 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
2035 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
2036 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
2037
2038 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
2039 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
2040 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
2041
2042 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
2043 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
2044 in a DoS attack.
2045
2046 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
2047 (CVE-2014-0221)
2048 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
2049
2050 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
2051 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
2052 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
2053 code on a vulnerable client or server.
2054
2055 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
2056 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
2057
2058 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
2059 are subject to a denial of service attack.
2060
2061 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
2062 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
2063 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
2064
2065 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
2066 compilation flags.
2067 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2068
2069 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
2070 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
2071 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2072
2073 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
2074 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2075
2076 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
2077
2078 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
2079 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
2080 server.
2081
2082 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
2083 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
2084 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
2085 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
2086
2087 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
2088 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
2089 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
2090 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
2091
2092 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
2093 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
2094 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
2095
2096 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
2097
2098 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
2099 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
2100 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
2101 is at least 512 bytes long.
2102
2103 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
2104
2105 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
2106
2107 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
2108 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
2109 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
2110 (CVE-2013-4353)
2111
2112 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
2113 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
2114 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
2115 [Steve Henson]
2116
2117 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
2118 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
2119 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
2120 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
2121 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
2122 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
2123 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
2124
2125 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
2126
2127 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
2128 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
2129 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2130
2131 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
2132
2133 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
2134
2135 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
2136 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
2137 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
2138
2139 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2140 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2141 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
2142 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
2143 (CVE-2013-0169)
2144 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2145
2146 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
2147 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
2148 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
2149 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
2150 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
2151 (CVE-2012-2686)
2152 [Adam Langley]
2153
2154 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2155 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2156 [Steve Henson]
2157
2158 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
2159 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
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 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2166
2167 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2168 [Steve Henson]
2169
2170 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
2171 if renegotiating.
2172 [Steve Henson]
2173
2174 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
2175
2176 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
2177 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
2178
2179 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2180 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2181 (CVE-2012-2333)
2182 [Steve Henson]
2183
2184 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2185 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2186 [Steve Henson]
2187
2188 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
2189 approved.
2190 [Steve Henson]
2191
2192 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
2193
2194 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
2195 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
2196 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
2197 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
2198 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
2199 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
2200 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
2201 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
2202 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
2203 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
2204 [Steve Henson]
2205
2206 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
2207 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
2208 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
2209 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
2210 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
2211 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
2212 client side.
2213 [Andy Polyakov]
2214
2215 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
2216
2217 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2218 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2219 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2220
2221 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2222 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2223 (CVE-2012-2110)
2224 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2225
2226 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
2227 [Adam Langley]
2228
2229 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
2230 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
2231
2232 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
2233 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
2234 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
2235 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
2236 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
2237 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
2238 Most broken servers should now work.
2239 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
2240 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
2241 [Steve Henson]
2242
2243 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
2244 [Andy Polyakov]
2245
2246 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
2247
2248 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
2249 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
2250 [Steve Henson]
2251
2252 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
2253 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
2254 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
2255 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
2256 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
2257 [Steve Henson]
2258
2259 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
2260 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
2261 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
2262 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
2263 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
2264 [Steve Henson]
2265
2266 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
2267 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2268
2269 *) Add support for SCTP.
2270 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2271
2272 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
2273 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
2274
2275 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
2276
2277 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
2278 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
2279 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
2280 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
2281 - s390x: z196 support;
2282 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
2283
2284 [Andy Polyakov]
2285
2286 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
2287 (removal of unnecessary code)
2288 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
2289
2290 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
2291 [Eric Rescorla]
2292
2293 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
2294 [Eric Rescorla]
2295
2296 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
2297 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
2298 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
2299 by Google.
2300 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
2301
2302 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
2303 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
2304 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
2305 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
2306 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
2307
2308 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
2309 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
2310 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
2311
2312 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
2313 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
2314 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
2315
2316 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
2317 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
2318 implementations).
2319 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2320
2321 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
2322 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
2323 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
2324 [Steve Henson]
2325
2326 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
2327 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
2328 particular PSS.
2329 [Steve Henson]
2330
2331 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
2332 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
2333 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
2334 [Steve Henson]
2335
2336 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
2337 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
2338 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
2339 the appropriate parameters.
2340 [Steve Henson]
2341
2342 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
2343 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
2344 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
2345 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
2346 against a number of sample certificates.
2347 [Steve Henson]
2348
2349 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
2350 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
2351
2352 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
2353 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
2354
2355 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
2356 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
2357 parameters r, s.
2358 [Steve Henson]
2359
2360 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
2361 RFC3211.
2362 [Steve Henson]
2363
2364 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
2365 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
2366 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
2367 password based CMS).
2368 [Steve Henson]
2369
2370 *) Session-handling fixes:
2371 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
2372 but also support Session Tickets.
2373 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
2374 presented a ticket with an expired session.
2375 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
2376 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
2377 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
2378 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2379
2380 *) Fix PSK session representation.
2381 [Bodo Moeller]
2382
2383 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
2384
2385 This work was sponsored by Intel.
2386 [Andy Polyakov]
2387
2388 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
2389 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
2390 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
2391 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
2392 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
2393 [Steve Henson]
2394
2395 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
2396 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
2397 [Steve Henson]
2398
2399 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
2400 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
2401 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
2402 [Steve Henson]
2403
2404 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
2405 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
2406 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
2407 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
2408 [Steve Henson]
2409
2410 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
2411 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
2412 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
2413 [Steve Henson]
2414
2415 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
2416 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
2417
2418 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
2419 [Steve Henson]
2420
2421 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
2422 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
2423 [Steve Henson]
2424
2425 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2426 [Steve Henson]
2427
2428 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
2429 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
2430 [Steve Henson]
2431
2432 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
2433 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
2434 [Steve Henson]
2435
2436 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
2437 [Steve Henson]
2438
2439 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
2440 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
2441 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
2442 [Steve Henson]
2443
2444 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
2445 [Steve Henson]
2446
2447 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
2448 [Steve Henson]
2449
2450 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
2451 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
2452 [Steve Henson]
2453
2454 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
2455 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
2456 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
2457 [Steve Henson]
2458
2459 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
2460 [Steve Henson]
2461
2462 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
2463 and enable MD5.
2464 [Steve Henson]
2465
2466 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
2467 FIPS modules versions.
2468 [Steve Henson]
2469
2470 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
2471 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
2472 until after the certificate request message is received.
2473 [Steve Henson]
2474
2475 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
2476 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
2477 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
2478 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
2479 [Steve Henson]
2480
2481 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
2482 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
2483 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
2484 support yet and no support for client certificates.
2485 [Steve Henson]
2486
2487 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
2488 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
2489 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
2490 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
2491 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
2492 and version checking.
2493 [Steve Henson]
2494
2495 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
2496 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
2497 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
2498 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
2499 [Steve Henson]
2500
2501 *) Add SRP support.
2502 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2503
2504 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
2505 [Steve Henson]
2506
2507 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
2508 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
2509 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2510
2511 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
2512 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
2513 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
2514 [Steve Henson]
2515
2516 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
2517 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
2518
2519 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
2520 a few changes are required:
2521
2522 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
2523 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
2524 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
2525 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
2526 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
2527 [Steve Henson]
2528
2529 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
2530
2531 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2532 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2533 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2534 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2535 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2536 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2537 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2538 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2539 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2540 [Steve Henson]
2541
2542 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2543 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2544 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2545 [Steve Henson]
2546
2547 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
2548
2549 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2550 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2551 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2552 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2553 [Antonio Martin]
2554
2555 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
2556
2557 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2558 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2559 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2560 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2561 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2562 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2563 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2564 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2565 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2566 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2567 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2568 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2569 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2570
2571 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2572 (CVE-2011-4576)
2573 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2574
2575 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2576 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2577 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2578 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2579
2580 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
2581 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
2582
2583 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2584 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2585 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2586 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2587
2588 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
2589 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
2590
2591 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2592 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2593
2594 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2595 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2596
2597 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2598 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2599 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2600
2601 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2602 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2603 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2604
2605 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2606 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2607 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2608 the last update always remained unused).
2609 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2610
2611 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
2612 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
2613
2614 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
2615
2616 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
2617 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
2618 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
2619
2620 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2621 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
2622 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2623
2624 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2625 [Bodo Moeller]
2626
2627 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
2628 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
2629 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
2630 [Steve Henson]
2631
2632 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2633 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2634
2635 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2636
2637 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2638
2639 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
2640
2641 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2642 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2643
2644 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2645 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2646 ambiguous.
2647 [Steve Henson]
2648
2649 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
2650
2651 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2652 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2653 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2654 [Steve Henson]
2655
2656 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2657 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2658 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2659 [Ben Laurie]
2660
2661 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
2662
2663 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2664 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2665 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2666 [Steve Henson]
2667
2668 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
2669 a DLL.
2670 [Steve Henson]
2671
2672 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
2673
2674 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
2675 (CVE-2010-1633)
2676 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
2677
2678 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
2679
2680 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
2681 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
2682 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
2683 [Steve Henson]
2684
2685 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
2686 [Steve Henson]
2687
2688 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
2689 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
2690 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
2691
2692 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
2693 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
2694 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
2695 [Steve Henson]
2696
2697 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
2698 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
2699 [Steve Henson]
2700
2701 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
2702 some responders need this.
2703 [Steve Henson]
2704
2705 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
2706 correctly.
2707 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2708
2709 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
2710 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
2711 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
2712 [Steve Henson]
2713
2714 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
2715 [Steve Henson]
2716
2717 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
2718 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
2719 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
2720 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
2721 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
2722 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
2723 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
2724 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
2725 [Steve Henson]
2726
2727 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
2728 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
2729 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
2730 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2731
2732 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
2733 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
2734
2735 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
2736 be used on C++.
2737 [Steve Henson]
2738
2739 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
2740 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
2741 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
2742 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
2743 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
2744 attempting to work them out.
2745 [Steve Henson]
2746
2747 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
2748 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
2749 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
2750 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
2751 [Steve Henson]
2752
2753 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
2754 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
2755 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
2756 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
2757 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
2758 [Steve Henson]
2759
2760 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
2761 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
2762 you can do:
2763
2764 openssl sha256 foo
2765
2766 as well as:
2767
2768 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
2769
2770 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
2771
2772 [Steve Henson]
2773
2774 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
2775 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2776
2777 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
2778 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
2779
2780 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
2781 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
2782 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
2783 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
2784 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
2785 [Steve Henson]
2786
2787 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
2788 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
2789 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
2790 [Steve Henson]
2791
2792 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
2793 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
2794 [Steve Henson]
2795
2796 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
2797 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
2798
2799 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
2800 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
2801 [Steve Henson]
2802
2803 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
2804 [Ben Laurie]
2805
2806 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
2807 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
2808 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
2809 CONF_VALUE.
2810 [Ben Laurie]
2811
2812 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
2813 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
2814 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
2815 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
2816 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
2817 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
2818 [Steve Henson]
2819
2820 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
2821 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
2822
2823 This work was sponsored by Google.
2824 [Steve Henson]
2825
2826 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
2827 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
2828 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
2829 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
2830 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
2831 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
2832 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
2833 default.
2834
2835 This work was sponsored by Google.
2836 [Steve Henson]
2837
2838 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
2839
2840 This work was sponsored by Google.
2841 [Steve Henson]
2842
2843 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
2844 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
2845 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
2846 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
2847
2848 This work was sponsored by Google.
2849 [Steve Henson]
2850
2851 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
2852 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
2853 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
2854 CRL functionality in future.
2855
2856 This work was sponsored by Google.
2857 [Steve Henson]
2858
2859 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
2860
2861 This work was sponsored by Google.
2862 [Steve Henson]
2863
2864 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
2865 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
2866
2867 This work was sponsored by Google.
2868 [Steve Henson]
2869
2870 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
2871 and URI types are currently supported.
2872
2873 This work was sponsored by Google.
2874 [Steve Henson]
2875
2876 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
2877 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
2878 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
2879 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
2880 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
2881 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
2882 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
2883 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
2884
2885 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
2886 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
2887 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
2888
2889 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
2890 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
2891 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
2892 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
2893
2894 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
2895 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
2896 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
2897 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
2898 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
2899 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
2900 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
2901 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
2902 of &errno.)
2903 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
2904
2905 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
2906 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
2907 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
2908
2909 This work was sponsored by Google.
2910 [Steve Henson]
2911
2912 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
2913 [Ben Laurie]
2914
2915 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2916 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
2917 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
2918 [Ben Laurie]
2919
2920 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
2921 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
2922 [Nick Mathewson]
2923
2924 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2925 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
2926 [Ben Laurie]
2927
2928 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
2929 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
2930 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
2931 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
2932 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
2933 content types and variants.
2934 [Steve Henson]
2935
2936 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
2937 [Steve Henson]
2938
2939 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
2940 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
2941 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
2942 files from the associated perl scripts.
2943 [Steve Henson]
2944
2945 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
2946 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
2947 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2948
2949 *) s390x assembler pack.
2950 [Andy Polyakov]
2951
2952 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
2953 "family."
2954 [Andy Polyakov]
2955
2956 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
2957 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
2958 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
2959 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
2960 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
2961 to use. For example, specify an option
2962
2963 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
2964
2965 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
2966 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
2967 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
2968 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
2969 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
2970 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
2971
2972 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
2973 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
2974 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
2975 return non-zero for success.
2976
2977 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
2978 by using
2979
2980 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
2981 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2982
2983 where
2984
2985 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
2986 void *arg;
2987
2988 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
2989 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
2990 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
2991 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
2992 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
2993 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
2994 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
2995 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
2996 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
2997
2998 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
2999 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
3000 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
3001 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
3002 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
3003 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
3004
3005 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
3006 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
3007 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
3008 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
3009 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
3010 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
3011
3012 [Bodo Moeller]
3013
3014 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
3015 MAC.
3016
3017 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
3018
3019 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3020 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3021 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3022 supported.
3023
3024 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3025 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3026 SSL_SESSION.
3027
3028 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3029 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3030 with no application modification.
3031
3032 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3033 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3034
3035 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3036 or server extensions to be examined.
3037
3038 This work was sponsored by Google.
3039 [Steve Henson]
3040
3041 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
3042 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
3043 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
3044
3045 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
3046 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
3047 ciphersuite support.
3048 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
3049
3050 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
3051 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
3052 to output in BER and PEM format.
3053 [Steve Henson]
3054
3055 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
3056 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
3057 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
3058 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
3059 -macopt options to dgst utility.
3060 [Steve Henson]
3061
3062 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
3063 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
3064 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
3065 utility.
3066 [Steve Henson]
3067
3068 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
3069 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
3070 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
3071 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
3072 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
3073 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
3074 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
3075 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
3076 enabled again.
3077
3078 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
3079 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
3080 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
3081 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
3082
3083 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
3084 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
3085 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
3086 the default order.
3087 [Bodo Moeller]
3088
3089 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
3090 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
3091 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
3092 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
3093 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
3094 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
3095 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
3096 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
3097 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
3098
3099 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
3100 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
3101 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
3102 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
3103 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
3104 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
3105 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
3106 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
3107 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
3108 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
3109 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
3110 kinds of kludges.
3111
3112 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
3113 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
3114 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
3115
3116 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
3117 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
3118 "CAMELLIA256".
3119 [Bodo Moeller]
3120
3121 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
3122 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
3123 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
3124 [Nils Larsch]
3125
3126 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
3127 it yet and it is largely untested.
3128 [Steve Henson]
3129
3130 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
3131 [Nils Larsch]
3132
3133 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
3134 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
3135 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
3136 [Steve Henson]
3137
3138 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
3139 [Andy Polyakov]
3140
3141 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
3142 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
3143 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
3144 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
3145 [Steve Henson]
3146
3147 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
3148 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
3149 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
3150 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
3151 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
3152 [Steve Henson]
3153
3154 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
3155 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
3156 [Cryptocom]
3157
3158 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
3159 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
3160 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
3161 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
3162 [Steve Henson]
3163
3164 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
3165 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
3166 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
3167 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
3168 [Steve Henson]
3169
3170 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
3171 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
3172 [Steve Henson]
3173
3174 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
3175 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
3176 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
3177 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
3178 [Steve Henson]
3179
3180 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
3181 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
3182 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
3183 [Steve Henson]
3184
3185 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
3186 utility.
3187 [Steve Henson]
3188
3189 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
3190 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
3191 [Steve Henson]
3192
3193 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
3194 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
3195 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
3196 if necessary.
3197 [Steve Henson]
3198
3199 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
3200 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
3201 to free up any added signature OIDs.
3202 [Steve Henson]
3203
3204 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
3205 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
3206 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
3207 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
3208 [Steve Henson]
3209
3210 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
3211 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
3212 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
3213 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
3214 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
3215 the array representation useful in a more general context.
3216 [Douglas Stebila]
3217
3218 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
3219 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
3220 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
3221 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
3222 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
3223
3224 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
3225 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
3226 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
3227 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
3228 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
3229 protocol).
3230
3231 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
3232 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
3233 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
3234 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
3235
3236 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
3237 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
3238 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
3239 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
3240 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
3241
3242 aECDH - ECDH cert
3243 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
3244 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
3245
3246 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
3247 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
3248
3249 [Bodo Moeller]
3250
3251 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
3252 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
3253 [Steve Henson]
3254
3255 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
3256 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
3257 [Steve Henson]
3258
3259 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
3260 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
3261 functional reference processing.
3262 [Steve Henson]
3263
3264 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
3265 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
3266 process.
3267 [Steve Henson]
3268
3269 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
3270 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
3271 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
3272 [Steve Henson]
3273
3274 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
3275 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
3276 application to support multiple signers.
3277 [Steve Henson]
3278
3279 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
3280 digest MAC.
3281 [Steve Henson]
3282
3283 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
3284 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
3285 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
3286 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
3287 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
3288 [Steve Henson]
3289
3290 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
3291 new API.
3292 [Steve Henson]
3293
3294 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
3295 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
3296 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
3297 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
3298 a no op.
3299 [Steve Henson]
3300
3301 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
3302 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
3303 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
3304 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
3305 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
3306 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
3307 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
3308 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
3309 [Steve Henson]
3310
3311 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
3312 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
3313 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
3314 between digests and public key types.
3315 [Steve Henson]
3316
3317 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
3318 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
3319 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
3320 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
3321 [Steve Henson]
3322
3323 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
3324 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
3325 key ASN1 method.
3326 [Steve Henson]
3327
3328 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
3329 [Steve Henson]
3330
3331 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
3332 pkeyutl.
3333 [Steve Henson]
3334
3335 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
3336 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
3337 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
3338 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
3339 pkey, genpkey.
3340 [Steve Henson]
3341
3342 *) BeOS support.
3343 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
3344
3345 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
3346 manual pages.
3347 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
3348
3349 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
3350 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
3351 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
3352 functionality for RSA.
3353 [Steve Henson]
3354
3355 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
3356 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
3357 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
3358 [Steve Henson]
3359
3360 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
3361 key API, doesn't do much yet.
3362 [Steve Henson]
3363
3364 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
3365 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
3366 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
3367 [Steve Henson]
3368
3369 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
3370 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
3371 [Douglas Stebila]
3372
3373 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
3374 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
3375 [Steve Henson]
3376
3377 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
3378 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
3379 type.
3380 [Steve Henson]
3381
3382 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
3383 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
3384 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
3385 structure.
3386 [Steve Henson]
3387
3388 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
3389 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
3390 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
3391 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
3392 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
3393 of public and private key structures.
3394 [Steve Henson]
3395
3396 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
3397 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
3398 [Douglas Stebila]
3399
3400 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
3401 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
3402 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
3403
3404 New ciphersuites:
3405 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
3406 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
3407
3408 New functions:
3409 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
3410 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
3411 SSL_get_psk_identity
3412 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
3413
3414 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
3415
3416 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
3417 and response verification functionality.
3418 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
3419
3420 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3421 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3422 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3423 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3424 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3425 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3426 server_name extension.
3427
3428 New functions (subject to change):
3429
3430 SSL_get_servername()
3431 SSL_get_servername_type()
3432 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3433
3434 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3435
3436 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3437 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3438 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3439 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3440 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3441
3442 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3443
3444 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3445 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3446 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3447 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3448 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
3449 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3450 option.
3451
3452 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
3453
3454 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
3455 [Andy Polyakov]
3456
3457 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
3458 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
3459 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
3460 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
3461 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
3462 [Andy Polyakov]
3463
3464 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
3465 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
3466 macro.
3467 [Bodo Moeller]
3468
3469 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
3470 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
3471 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
3472 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
3473 [Andy Polyakov]
3474
3475 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
3476 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
3477 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
3478 using the maximum available value.
3479 [Steve Henson]
3480
3481 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
3482 in addition to the text details.
3483 [Bodo Moeller]
3484
3485 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
3486 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
3487 handle several customised structures at all.
3488 [Steve Henson]
3489
3490 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
3491 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
3492 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
3493 [Steve Henson]
3494
3495 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
3496 [Steve Henson]
3497
3498 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
3499 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
3500 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
3501 [Steve Henson]
3502
3503 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
3504 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
3505 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
3506 [Nils Larsch]
3507
3508 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
3509 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
3510 all fields.
3511 [Steve Henson]
3512
3513 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
3514 [Steve Henson]
3515
3516 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
3517 [NTT]
3518
3519 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
3520
3521 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
3522 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
3523 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
3524 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
3525 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
3526 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
3527 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
3528 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
3529
3530 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
3531 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
3532 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
3533
3534 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
3535
3536 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
3537 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
3538
3539 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
3540 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
3541 [Bodo Moeller]
3542
3543 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
3544 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
3545 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
3546 [Steve Henson]
3547
3548 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
3549 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
3550 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
3551 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
3552 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
3553 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
3554 [Steve Henson]
3555
3556 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
3557 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
3558 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
3559 [Steve Henson]
3560
3561 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
3562 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
3563 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
3564 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
3565 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
3566 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
3567 CVE-2009-4355.
3568 [Steve Henson]
3569
3570 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
3571 change when encrypting or decrypting.
3572 [Bodo Moeller]
3573
3574 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
3575 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
3576 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
3577 [Steve Henson]
3578
3579 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
3580 [Steve Henson]
3581
3582 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
3583 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
3584 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
3585 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
3586 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
3587 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
3588 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
3589 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
3590 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
3591 [Steve Henson]
3592
3593 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
3594 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
3595 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
3596 [Steve Henson]
3597
3598 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
3599 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
3600 [Steve Henson]
3601
3602 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
3603 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
3604 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
3605 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
3606 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
3607 know what you are doing.
3608 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
3609
3610 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
3611 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
3612 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
3613 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
3614 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
3615 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
3616 the handshake.
3617 [Steve Henson]
3618
3619 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
3620 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
3621 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
3622 correctly.
3623 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
3624
3625 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
3626 warnings in other configurations.
3627 [Steve Henson]
3628
3629 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
3630 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
3631 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
3632 systems need.
3633 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
3634
3635 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
3636 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
3637 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
3638
3639 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
3640 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
3641 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
3642 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
3643 [Steve Henson]
3644
3645 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
3646 and restored.
3647 [Steve Henson]
3648
3649 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
3650 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
3651 clash.
3652 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
3653
3654 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
3655 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
3656 other than a simple chain.
3657 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
3658
3659 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
3660 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
3661 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
3662 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
3663 [Steve Henson]
3664
3665 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
3666 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
3667 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
3668 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
3669 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
3670 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
3671 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
3672 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
3673 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
3674
3675 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
3676 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
3677 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
3678 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
3679 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
3680 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
3681 (CVE-2009-1377)
3682 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
3683
3684 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
3685 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
3686 [Daniel Mentz]
3687
3688 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
3689 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
3690
3691 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
3692 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
3693
3694 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
3695
3696 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
3697 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
3698 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
3699 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
3700 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
3701 you're doing.
3702 [Ben Laurie]
3703
3704 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
3705
3706 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
3707 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
3708 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
3709 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
3710
3711 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
3712 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
3713 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
3714 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3715
3716 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
3717 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
3718 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
3719 [Steve Henson]
3720
3721 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
3722 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
3723 level.
3724 [Steve Henson]
3725
3726 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
3727 to handle some structures.
3728 [Steve Henson]
3729
3730 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
3731 for a '\n'
3732 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
3733
3734 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
3735 [Matthieu Herrb]
3736
3737 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
3738 [Steve Henson]
3739
3740 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
3741 [Steve Henson]
3742
3743 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
3744 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
3745 chosen compiler.
3746 [Ben Laurie]
3747
3748 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
3749
3750 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
3751 (CVE-2008-5077).
3752 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
3753
3754 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
3755 [Ben Laurie]
3756
3757 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
3758 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
3759 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
3760 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
3761
3762 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
3763 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
3764
3765 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
3766 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
3767 [Bodo Moeller]
3768
3769 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
3770 s_client and s_server.
3771 [Ben Laurie]
3772
3773 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
3774 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3775
3776 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
3777 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
3778
3779 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
3780 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
3781 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
3782 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
3783 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
3784 [Bodo Moeller]
3785
3786 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
3787
3788 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
3789 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
3790 [PR #1679]
3791
3792 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
3793 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
3794 [Nagendra Modadugu]
3795
3796 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
3797 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
3798 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
3799 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
3800
3801 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
3802 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
3803
3804 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
3805
3806 *) Various precautionary measures:
3807
3808 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
3809
3810 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
3811 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
3812 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
3813
3814 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
3815 outside the expected range.
3816
3817 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
3818 builds.
3819
3820 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
3821
3822 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
3823 the load fails. Useful for distros.
3824 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
3825
3826 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
3827 [Steve Henson]
3828
3829 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
3830 [Huang Ying]
3831
3832 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
3833
3834 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3835 [Steve Henson]
3836
3837 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
3838 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
3839 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
3840
3841 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3842 [Steve Henson]
3843
3844 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
3845 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
3846 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
3847 files.
3848 [Steve Henson]
3849
3850 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
3851
3852 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
3853 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
3854 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
3855 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
3856
3857 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
3858 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
3859 [Joe Orton]
3860
3861 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
3862
3863 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
3864 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
3865 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
3866
3867 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
3868
3869 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
3870 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
3871 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
3872 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
3873 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3874
3875 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
3876 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
3877 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
3878 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
3879 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
3880 invalid read after the end of 'db').
3881 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3882
3883 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
3884
3885 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
3886 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
3887 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
3888 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
3889 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
3890
3891 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
3892 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
3893
3894 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
3895 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
3896 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
3897 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
3898 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
3899
3900 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
3901
3902 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
3903 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
3904 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
3905 sets may exist with different names.
3906 [Steve Henson]
3907
3908 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
3909 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
3910 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
3911 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
3912 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
3913 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
3914 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
3915 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
3916 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
3917 implementation.
3918 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
3919
3920 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
3921 implemention in the following ways:
3922
3923 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
3924 hard coded.
3925
3926 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
3927 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
3928 ignored for embedded content.
3929
3930 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
3931 with the enable-cms configuration option.
3932 [Steve Henson]
3933
3934 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
3935 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
3936 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
3937 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
3938
3939 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
3940 uncompresses any data passed through it.
3941 [Steve Henson]
3942
3943 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
3944 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
3945 [Steve Henson]
3946
3947 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
3948 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
3949 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
3950 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
3951 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
3952 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
3953 data.
3954 [Steve Henson]
3955
3956 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
3957 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
3958 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3959
3960 *) Netware support:
3961
3962 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
3963 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
3964 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
3965 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
3966 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
3967 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
3968 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
3969 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
3970 platform
3971 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
3972 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
3973 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
3974 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
3975 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
3976 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
3977 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
3978
3979 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
3980 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
3981 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
3982 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
3983 to s_client and s_server.
3984 [Steve Henson]
3985
3986 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
3987
3988 *) Fix various bugs:
3989 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
3990 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
3991 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
3992 + Fix ia64 assembler code
3993 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3994
3995 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
3996
3997 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
3998 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
3999 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
4000 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
4001 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
4002 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
4003 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
4004 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
4005 [Andy Polyakov]
4006
4007 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
4008 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
4009 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
4010 Steve Henson]
4011
4012 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4013 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4014 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4015 supported.
4016
4017 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4018 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4019 SSL_SESSION.
4020
4021 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4022 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4023 with no application modification.
4024
4025 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4026 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4027
4028 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4029 or server extensions to be examined.
4030
4031 This work was sponsored by Google.
4032 [Steve Henson]
4033
4034 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4035 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4036 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4037 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4038 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4039 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4040 server_name extension.
4041
4042 New functions (subject to change):
4043
4044 SSL_get_servername()
4045 SSL_get_servername_type()
4046 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4047
4048 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4049
4050 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4051 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4052 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4053 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4054 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4055
4056 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4057
4058 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4059 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4060 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4061 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4062 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4063 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4064 option.
4065
4066 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
4067
4068 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
4069 [Steve Henson]
4070
4071 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
4072 [Andy Polyakov]
4073
4074 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
4075 (which previously caused an internal error).
4076 [Bodo Moeller]
4077
4078 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
4079 [Ben Laurie]
4080
4081 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
4082 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
4083
4084 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
4085 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
4086 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
4087
4088 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
4089 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
4090 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
4091 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
4092
4093 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
4094 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
4095 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
4096 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
4097
4098 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
4099 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
4100 information. For detailed background information, see
4101 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
4102 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
4103 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
4104 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
4105 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
4106 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
4107 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
4108 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
4109 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
4110 remove a conditional branch.
4111
4112 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
4113 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
4114 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
4115 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
4116 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
4117 remains as a deprecated alias.
4118
4119 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
4120 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
4121 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
4122 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
4123
4124 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
4125 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
4126 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
4127 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
4128 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
4129 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
4130 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
4131 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
4132
4133 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
4134
4135 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
4136 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
4137 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
4138 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
4139 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
4140 with applications using a single external cache for quite
4141 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
4142 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
4143 in a different context.
4144 [Bodo Moeller]
4145
4146 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4147 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4148 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4149 [Bodo Moeller]
4150
4151 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
4152 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
4153 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
4154
4155 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
4156
4157 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
4158 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
4159 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4160 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
4161 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
4162 [Victor Duchovni]
4163
4164 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
4165 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
4166 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
4167 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
4168 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
4169 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
4170 [Bodo Moeller]
4171
4172 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4173 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4174 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4175 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4176 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4177 [Bodo Moeller]
4178
4179 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
4180 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
4181
4182 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4183 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4184 Improve header file function name parsing.
4185 [Steve Henson]
4186
4187 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
4188 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
4189 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
4190
4191 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
4192
4193 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4194 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4195 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4196
4197 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4198 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4199
4200 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4201 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4202
4203 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4204 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4205 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4206
4207 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
4208 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
4209 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
4210 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
4211 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
4212 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
4213 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
4214 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
4215 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
4216
4217 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
4218 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
4219 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
4220 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
4221 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
4222
4223 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
4224 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
4225 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
4226 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
4227 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
4228 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
4229 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
4230 multiple values to extend the available space.
4231
4232 [Bodo Moeller]
4233
4234 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
4235
4236 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4237 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4238
4239 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
4240 [Ben Laurie]
4241
4242 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4243 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4244 undesirable limitations.
4245 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4246
4247 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
4248 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
4249 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
4250 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
4251 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
4252 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
4253 to avoid potential handshake problems.
4254 [Bodo Moeller]
4255
4256 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4257
4258 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4259 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4260 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4261
4262 The latter two were purportedly from
4263 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4264 appear there.
4265
4266 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
4267 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4268 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4269 [Bodo Moeller]
4270
4271 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
4272 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4273 [Bodo Moeller]
4274
4275 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
4276 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
4277 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
4278 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
4279
4280 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
4281 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
4282 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
4283 [NTT]
4284
4285 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
4286 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
4287 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
4288 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
4289 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
4290 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
4291 [Steve Henson]
4292
4293 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
4294
4295 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
4296 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
4297 [Steve Henson]
4298
4299 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
4300 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
4301
4302 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
4303 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
4304 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
4305 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
4306 [Douglas Stebila]
4307
4308 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
4309 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
4310 [Steve Henson]
4311
4312 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
4313 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
4314 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
4315 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
4316 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
4317 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
4318 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
4319 can't be loaded.
4320 [Steve Henson]
4321
4322 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
4323 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
4324 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
4325 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
4326 [Steve Henson]
4327
4328 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
4329 under VC++ build system.
4330 [Steve Henson]
4331
4332 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
4333 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
4334 [Richard Levitte]
4335
4336 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
4337
4338 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4339 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4340 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4341 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4342 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4343
4344 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4345 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4346 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4347
4348 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
4349 [Steve Henson]
4350
4351 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
4352 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
4353 [Nils Larsch]
4354
4355 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
4356 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
4357
4358 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
4359 [Nick Mathewson]
4360
4361 *) Extended Windows CE support.
4362 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
4363
4364 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
4365 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
4366 [Steve Henson]
4367
4368 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
4369 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
4370 smime utility.
4371 [Steve Henson]
4372
4373 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
4374
4375 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4376 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4377
4378 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
4379 [Richard Levitte]
4380
4381 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
4382 key into the same file any more.
4383 [Richard Levitte]
4384
4385 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
4386 [Andy Polyakov]
4387
4388 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
4389 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
4390
4391 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
4392 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
4393 [Richard Levitte]
4394
4395 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
4396 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
4397 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
4398 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
4399 this only applies when building 'shared'.
4400 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
4401
4402 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
4403 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
4404 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
4405 [Steve Henson]
4406
4407 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
4408 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
4409 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
4410 - add new function for parameter creation
4411 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
4412 BN_BLINDING parameters
4413 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
4414 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
4415 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
4416 threads.
4417 [Nils Larsch]
4418
4419 *) Add support for DTLS.
4420 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
4421
4422 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
4423 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
4424 [Walter Goulet]
4425
4426 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
4427 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
4428 [Nils Larsch]
4429
4430 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
4431 the apps/openssl applications.
4432 [Nils Larsch]
4433
4434 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
4435 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
4436 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
4437 [Ben Laurie]
4438
4439 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
4440 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
4441
4442 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
4443 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
4444
4445 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
4446 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
4447 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
4448 avoid this algorithm.)
4449
4450 [Bodo Moeller]
4451
4452 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
4453 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
4454 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
4455 [Richard Levitte]
4456
4457 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
4458 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
4459 [Andy Polyakov]
4460
4461 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
4462 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
4463 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
4464 pod file:
4465
4466 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
4467
4468 The blank line is mandatory.
4469
4470 [Steve Henson]
4471
4472 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
4473 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
4474 sources.
4475 [Steve Henson]
4476
4477 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
4478 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
4479
4480 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
4481 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
4482 to support policy checking and print out.
4483 [Steve Henson]
4484
4485 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
4486 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
4487 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
4488 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
4489
4490 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
4491 [Geoff Thorpe]
4492
4493 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
4494 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
4495
4496 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
4497 implementation contributed by IBM.
4498 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
4499
4500 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
4501 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
4502 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
4503 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
4504
4505 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
4506 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
4507
4508 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
4509 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
4510 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
4511 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
4512 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
4513 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
4514 [Steve Henson]
4515
4516 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
4517 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
4518 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
4519 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
4520 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
4521 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
4522 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
4523 [Geoff Thorpe]
4524
4525 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
4526 [Steve Henson]
4527
4528 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
4529 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
4530 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
4531 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
4532 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
4533 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
4534 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
4535 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
4536 [Steve Henson]
4537
4538 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
4539 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
4540 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
4541 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
4542 [Steve Henson]
4543
4544 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
4545 syntax:
4546
4547 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
4548 [Steve Henson]
4549
4550 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
4551 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
4552 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
4553 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
4554 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
4555 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
4556 BN_CTX's "bundling".
4557 [Geoff Thorpe]
4558
4559 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
4560 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
4561 [Geoff Thorpe]
4562
4563 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
4564 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
4565 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
4566 [Steve Henson]
4567
4568 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
4569 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
4570 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
4571 below).
4572 [Geoff Thorpe]
4573
4574 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
4575 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
4576 [Richard Levitte]
4577
4578 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
4579 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
4580 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
4581 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
4582 [Geoff Thorpe]
4583
4584 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
4585 initialised value as BN_new().
4586 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
4587
4588 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
4589 [Steve Henson]
4590
4591 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
4592 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
4593 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
4594 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
4595 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
4596 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
4597 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
4598 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
4599 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
4600 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
4601 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
4602 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
4603 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
4604 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
4605 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
4606
4607 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
4608 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
4609 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
4610 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
4611 [Geoff Thorpe]
4612
4613 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
4614 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
4615 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
4616 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
4617 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
4618 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
4619 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
4620 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
4621 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
4622 [Geoff Thorpe]
4623
4624 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
4625 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
4626 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
4627 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
4628 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
4629 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
4630 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
4631 [Geoff Thorpe]
4632
4633 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
4634 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
4635 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
4636 these have been updated also.
4637 [Geoff Thorpe]
4638
4639 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
4640 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
4641 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
4642 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
4643 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
4644 functions.
4645 [Steve Henson]
4646
4647 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
4648 structure of type "other".
4649 [Steve Henson]
4650
4651 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
4652 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
4653 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
4654 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
4655 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
4656 situation in the script.
4657 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4658
4659 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
4660 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
4661 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
4662 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
4663 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
4664 used as premaster secret.
4665 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4666
4667 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
4668 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
4669 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4670
4671 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
4672 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
4673
4674 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
4675 control of the error stack.
4676 [Richard Levitte]
4677
4678 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
4679 [Richard Levitte]
4680
4681 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
4682 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
4683 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
4684 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
4685 [Richard Levitte]
4686
4687 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
4688 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
4689 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
4690 [Richard Levitte]
4691
4692 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
4693 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
4694 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
4695 a memory area.
4696 [Richard Levitte]
4697
4698 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
4699 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
4700 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
4701 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
4702 [Richard Levitte]
4703
4704 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
4705 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
4706 the following flags are defined:
4707
4708 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
4709 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
4710 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
4711 number.
4712
4713 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
4714 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
4715 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
4716 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
4717 returns zero.
4718 [Richard Levitte]
4719
4720 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
4721 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
4722 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
4723 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
4724 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
4725 [Richard Levitte]
4726
4727 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
4728 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
4729 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
4730 [Richard Levitte]
4731
4732 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4733 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4734 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4735 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4736 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4737 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4738 [Richard Levitte]
4739
4740 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
4741 req and dirName.
4742 [Steve Henson]
4743
4744 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
4745 [Steve Henson]
4746
4747 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
4748 [Steve Henson]
4749
4750 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
4751 [Steve Henson]
4752
4753 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
4754 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
4755 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
4756 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
4757 default implementation more easily.
4758 [Geoff Thorpe]
4759
4760 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
4761 in config files.
4762 [Steve Henson]
4763
4764 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
4765 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
4766 [Richard Levitte]
4767
4768 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
4769 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
4770 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
4771 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
4772
4773 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
4774 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
4775 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
4776 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
4777 [Steve Henson]
4778
4779 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
4780 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
4781 to do it.
4782 [Richard Levitte]
4783
4784 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
4785 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
4786 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
4787 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
4788 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
4789 scalar * generator).
4790 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
4791
4792 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
4793 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
4794 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
4795 correctly.
4796 [Steve Henson]
4797
4798 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
4799 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
4800 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
4801 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
4802 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
4803 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
4804 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
4805 linker additions, eg;
4806 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
4807 [Geoff Thorpe]
4808
4809 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
4810 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
4811 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
4812 [Geoff Thorpe]
4813
4814 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4815 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4816 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
4817 via PR#459)
4818 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4819
4820 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
4821 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
4822 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
4823 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
4824 [Geoff Thorpe]
4825
4826 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
4827 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
4828 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
4829 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
4830 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
4831 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
4832 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
4833 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
4834 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
4835 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
4836
4837 Example for using the new callback interface:
4838
4839 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
4840 void *my_arg = ...;
4841 BN_GENCB my_cb;
4842
4843 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
4844
4845 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
4846 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
4847 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
4848 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
4849 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
4850 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
4851 */
4852
4853 [Geoff Thorpe]
4854
4855 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
4856 available to TLS with the number defined in
4857 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
4858 [Richard Levitte]
4859
4860 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
4861 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
4862
4863 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
4864 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4865 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4866 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
4867
4868 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
4869 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
4870
4871 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
4872 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
4873 well.
4874 [Richard Levitte]
4875
4876 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
4877 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
4878 [Richard Levitte]
4879
4880 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
4881 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
4882 and a macro that behave like
4883 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
4884
4885 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
4886 [Nils Larsch]
4887
4888 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
4889 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
4890 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
4891 if applicable.
4892 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4893
4894 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
4895 [Bodo Moeller]
4896
4897 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
4898 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
4899 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
4900 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
4901 directory engines/.
4902 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
4903 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
4904 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
4905 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
4906 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
4907 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
4908 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
4909 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
4910
4911 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
4912 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
4913 [Richard Levitte]
4914
4915 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
4916 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
4917
4918 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
4919 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
4920 files while avoiding the low level API.
4921
4922 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
4923 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
4924 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
4925 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
4926
4927 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
4928 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
4929 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
4930 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
4931 instead of the low level API.
4932 [Steve Henson]
4933
4934 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
4935 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
4936 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
4937 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
4938 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
4939 PKCS#7 code.
4940
4941 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
4942 down to the template encoder.
4943 [Steve Henson]
4944
4945 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
4946 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
4947 [Bodo Moeller]
4948
4949 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
4950 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
4951 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
4952 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4953
4954 *) Add ECDH engine support.
4955 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4956
4957 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
4958 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4959
4960 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
4961 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
4962 [Bodo Moeller]
4963
4964 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
4965 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
4966 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
4967 [Bodo Moeller]
4968
4969 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
4970 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
4971
4972 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4973 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4974
4975 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
4976 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
4977 New EC_METHOD:
4978
4979 EC_GF2m_simple_method
4980
4981 New API functions:
4982
4983 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
4984 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
4985 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
4986 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4987 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4988 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
4989
4990 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
4991 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
4992 enable it).
4993
4994 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
4995 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
4996 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
4997 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
4998 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
4999 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
5000 various internal method names.)
5001
5002 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
5003 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
5004
5005 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5006 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5007
5008 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
5009 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
5010
5011 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
5012 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
5013 methods are undefined.
5014
5015 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5016 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5017
5018 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
5019 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
5020 length of the modulus.
5021
5022 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5023 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5024
5025 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
5026 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
5027
5028 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5029 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5030
5031 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
5032 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
5033 used) in the following functions [macros]:
5034
5035 BN_GF2m_add
5036 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
5037 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
5038 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
5039 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
5040 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
5041 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
5042 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
5043 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
5044 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
5045
5046 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
5047 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
5048
5049 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
5050 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
5051 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
5052 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
5053 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
5054 where
5055 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
5056 This applies to the following functions:
5057
5058 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
5059 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
5060 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
5061 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
5062 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
5063 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
5064 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
5065 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
5066 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
5067 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
5068
5069 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
5070
5071 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
5072 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
5073
5074 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
5075
5076 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
5077 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
5078 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
5079 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
5080 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
5081
5082 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5083 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5084
5085 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
5086 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
5087 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
5088
5089 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
5090 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
5091
5092 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
5093 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
5094 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
5095 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
5096 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5097
5098 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
5099 functions
5100 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
5101 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
5102 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
5103 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
5104 These control ASN1 encoding details:
5105 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
5106 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
5107 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
5108 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
5109 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
5110 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
5111 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
5112
5113 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
5114 functions
5115 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
5116 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
5117 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
5118 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
5119 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5120
5121 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
5122 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
5123 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
5124 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5125
5126 *) Add functions
5127 EC_POINT_point2bn()
5128 EC_POINT_bn2point()
5129 EC_POINT_point2hex()
5130 EC_POINT_hex2point()
5131 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
5132 EC_POINT_oct2point().
5133 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5134
5135 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
5136 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
5137 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
5138 EC_GROUP_get_order()
5139 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
5140 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
5141 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
5142 adding different types of curves.
5143 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
5144
5145 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
5146 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
5147 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
5148 [Bodo Moeller]
5149
5150 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
5151 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
5152
5153 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
5154 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
5155 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
5156 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5157
5158 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
5159
5160 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
5161 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
5162
5163 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
5164 library. Most notably,
5165 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
5166 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
5167 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
5168 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
5169 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
5170 extracted before the specific public key;
5171 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
5172 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5173
5174 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
5175 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
5176 function
5177 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
5178 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
5179 EC_get_builtin_curves().
5180 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
5181 accessed via
5182 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
5183 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
5184 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
5185
5186 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5187 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5188 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5189 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5190 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5191 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5192 differing sizes.
5193 [Richard Levitte]
5194
5195 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
5196
5197 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
5198 sensitive data.
5199 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
5200
5201 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5202 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5203 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5204 [Bodo Moeller]
5205
5206 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
5207 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5208 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
5209 [Victor Duchovni]
5210
5211 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
5212 [Steve Henson]
5213
5214 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
5215 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
5216 [Steve Henson]
5217
5218 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
5219 run algorithm test programs.
5220 [Steve Henson]
5221
5222 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
5223 [Steve Henson]
5224
5225 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5226 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5227 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5228 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5229 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5230 [Bodo Moeller]
5231
5232 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5233 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5234 [Steve Henson]
5235
5236 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
5237
5238 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5239 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5240 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5241
5242 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5243 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5244
5245 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5246 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5247
5248 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5249 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5250 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5251
5252 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
5253 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
5254 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
5255 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
5256 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
5257 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
5258 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
5259 [Bodo Moeller]
5260
5261 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
5262
5263 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5264 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5265
5266 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5267 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5268 undesirable limitations.
5269 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5270
5271 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5272
5273 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5274 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5275 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5276
5277 The latter two were purportedly from
5278 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5279 appear there.
5280
5281 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
5282 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5283 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5284 [Bodo Moeller]
5285
5286 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5287 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5288 [Bodo Moeller]
5289
5290 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
5291
5292 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
5293 module in FIPS mode.
5294 [Steve Henson]
5295
5296 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
5297 [Steve Henson]
5298
5299 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
5300 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
5301 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
5302 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
5303 [Steve Henson]
5304
5305 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
5306
5307 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
5308 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
5309 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
5310 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
5311 the difference induced by this change.
5312 [Andy Polyakov]
5313
5314 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
5315
5316 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5317 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5318 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5319 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5320 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5321
5322 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5323 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5324 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5325
5326 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
5327 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
5328 [Steve Henson]
5329
5330 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
5331 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
5332 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
5333 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
5334 biased k.)
5335 [Bodo Moeller]
5336
5337 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
5338 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
5339 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
5340 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
5341 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
5342
5343 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
5344 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
5345 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
5346 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
5347 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
5348 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
5349
5350 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
5351
5352 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
5353 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
5354 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
5355 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
5356 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
5357 [Bodo Moeller]
5358
5359 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
5360 clients need.
5361 [Steve Henson]
5362
5363 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
5364 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
5365 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
5366 [Steve Henson]
5367
5368 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
5369 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
5370 structures constant.
5371 [Steve Henson]
5372
5373 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
5374
5375 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5376 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5377
5378 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
5379 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
5380 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
5381 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
5382 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
5383 some needed definitions.
5384 [Steve Henson]
5385
5386 *) Undo Cygwin change.
5387 [Ulf Möller]
5388
5389 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
5390 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
5391 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
5392 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
5393 [Richard Levitte]
5394
5395 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
5396
5397 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
5398 server and client random values. Previously
5399 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
5400 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
5401
5402 This change has negligible security impact because:
5403
5404 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
5405 data.
5406
5407 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
5408 handshake.
5409
5410 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
5411 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
5412 values.
5413
5414 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
5415 to our attention.
5416
5417 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
5418
5419 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
5420 [Ulf Möller]
5421
5422 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
5423 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
5424 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
5425
5426 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
5427 [Steve Henson]
5428
5429 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
5430 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
5431 [Andy Polyakov]
5432
5433 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
5434 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
5435 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
5436
5437 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
5438 [Steve Henson]
5439
5440 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
5441 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
5442 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
5443 certificates.
5444 [Steve Henson]
5445
5446 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
5447 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
5448 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
5449 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
5450
5451 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
5452 has chosen to ignore this fault)
5453 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
5454 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
5455 been given)
5456 [Richard Levitte]
5457
5458 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
5459
5460 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
5461 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
5462 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
5463 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
5464 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
5465 [Steve Henson]
5466
5467 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
5468 [Steve Henson]
5469
5470 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
5471 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
5472
5473 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
5474 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
5475 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
5476 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
5477 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
5478 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
5479 rather than being initialized to 1.
5480 [Steve Henson]
5481
5482 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
5483
5484 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5485 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5486 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5487
5488 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
5489 (CVE-2004-0112)
5490 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5491
5492 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
5493 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
5494 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
5495 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
5496 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
5497 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
5498 [Richard Levitte]
5499
5500 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
5501 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
5502 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
5503 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
5504 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
5505 for these cases.
5506 [Steve Henson]
5507
5508 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
5509 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
5510 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
5511 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
5512 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
5513 [Steve Henson]
5514
5515 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
5516 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
5517 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
5518 < 0.9.7.
5519 [Steve Henson]
5520
5521 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
5522 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5523
5524 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
5525 [Steve Henson]
5526
5527 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
5528
5529 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5530
5531 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
5532 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
5533
5534 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
5535
5536 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5537 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
5538
5539 [Steve Henson]
5540
5541 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
5542 exiting on the first error in a request.
5543 [Steve Henson]
5544
5545 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5546 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5547 specifications.
5548 [Steve Henson]
5549
5550 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5551 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5552 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
5553 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
5554
5555 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
5556 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5557 [Richard Levitte]
5558
5559 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
5560 blocks during encryption.
5561 [Richard Levitte]
5562
5563 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
5564 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
5565 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
5566 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
5567 certain size.
5568 [Steve Henson]
5569
5570 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
5571 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
5572 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
5573 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
5574 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
5575 parser.
5576 [Steve Henson]
5577
5578 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
5579
5580 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5581 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5582 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5583 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5584 [Bodo Moeller]
5585
5586 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5587 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5588 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5589 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5590 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5591
5592 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5593 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5594 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5595 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5596 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5597 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5598 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5599 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5600 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5601 [Bodo Moeller]
5602
5603 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
5604 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
5605 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
5606 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
5607 [Geoff Thorpe]
5608
5609 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
5610 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
5611 [Ulf Moeller]
5612
5613 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
5614
5615 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5616 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
5617 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5618 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
5619 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
5620
5621 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
5622 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
5623 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
5624
5625 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
5626 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
5627 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
5628 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
5629 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
5630
5631 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
5632 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
5633 used by default when no-err is given.
5634 [Richard Levitte]
5635
5636 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
5637 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
5638
5639 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
5640 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
5641 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
5642 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
5643 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
5644
5645 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
5646 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
5647 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
5648 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
5649
5650 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
5651
5652 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
5653
5654 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
5655
5656 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
5657 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
5658 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
5659 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
5660 root is omitted).
5661 [Steve Henson]
5662
5663 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
5664 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
5665
5666 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
5667 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
5668 [Steve Henson]
5669
5670 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
5671 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
5672 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
5673 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
5674 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5675
5676 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
5677 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
5678 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
5679 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
5680 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
5681 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
5682 followup to PR #377.
5683 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5684
5685 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
5686 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
5687 [Andy Polyakov]
5688
5689 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
5690 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
5691 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
5692 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
5693
5694 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
5695
5696 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
5697 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
5698
5699 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
5700 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
5701 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
5702 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
5703 client and server.
5704 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
5705 PR #377.
5706 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5707
5708 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
5709 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
5710 removed entirely.
5711 [Richard Levitte]
5712
5713 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
5714 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
5715 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
5716 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
5717 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
5718 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
5719 of libcrypto.
5720 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
5721 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
5722 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
5723 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
5724 have to be made anyway).
5725 [Richard Levitte]
5726
5727 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
5728 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
5729 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
5730 [Steve Henson]
5731
5732 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
5733 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
5734 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
5735 [Richard Levitte]
5736
5737 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
5738 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
5739 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
5740
5741 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
5742 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
5743 edit numbers of the version.
5744 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
5745
5746 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
5747 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
5748 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
5749
5750 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
5751 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5752
5753 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
5754 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
5755 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5756
5757 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
5758 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5759
5760 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
5761 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5762
5763 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
5764 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5765
5766 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
5767 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5768
5769 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
5770 overflows.
5771 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5772
5773 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
5774 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
5775 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5776
5777 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
5778 representations in a platform independent manner.
5779 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5780
5781 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
5782 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
5783 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5784
5785 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
5786 indents.
5787 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5788
5789 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
5790 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5791
5792 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
5793 full. Fixed.
5794 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5795
5796 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
5797 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
5798 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5799
5800 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
5801 unconditionally).
5802 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5803
5804 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
5805 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5806
5807 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
5808 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5809
5810 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
5811 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5812
5813 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
5814 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5815
5816 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
5817 CBCParameter.
5818 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5819
5820 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
5821 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5822
5823 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
5824 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5825
5826 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
5827 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
5828 exploitable.
5829 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5830
5831 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
5832 the 0.9.6 release series:
5833
5834 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
5835 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
5836 (CVE-2002-0657)
5837 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5838
5839 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
5840 [Richard Levitte]
5841
5842 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
5843 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
5844
5845 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
5846 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
5847
5848 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
5849 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
5850 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
5851 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
5852
5853 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
5854 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
5855 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
5856
5857 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
5858 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
5859 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
5860 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
5861
5862 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
5863 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
5864 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
5865 some local tweaks:
5866
5867 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
5868 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
5869 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
5870 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5871 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5872 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
5873 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
5874 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
5875 done
5876
5877 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
5878 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
5879 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
5880 [Richard Levitte]
5881
5882 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
5883 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
5884 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
5885 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
5886 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
5887
5888 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
5889 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
5890
5891 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
5892 error in AES-CFB decryption.
5893 [Richard Levitte]
5894
5895 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
5896 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
5897 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
5898 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
5899 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
5900 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
5901 [Steve Henson]
5902
5903 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
5904 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
5905 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
5906 [Steve Henson]
5907
5908 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
5909 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
5910 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5911
5912 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
5913 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
5914 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
5915 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
5916 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
5917 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
5918 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
5919 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5920
5921 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
5922 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
5923 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
5924 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
5925 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
5926 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
5927 [Steve Henson]
5928
5929 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
5930 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
5931 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
5932 declaration has been changed from
5933 int (*cb)()
5934 into
5935 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
5936 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
5937 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
5938 has been changed into
5939 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
5940
5941 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
5942 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
5943 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
5944
5945 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
5946 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
5947
5948 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
5949 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
5950 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
5951 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
5952 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
5953 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
5954 always load it have also been added.
5955 [Steve Henson]
5956
5957 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
5958 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
5959 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5960
5961 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
5962
5963 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
5964 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
5965 because it couldn't be used for anything.
5966
5967 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
5968 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
5969 command line option can be used to specify an
5970 alternative file.
5971 [Steve Henson]
5972
5973 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
5974 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
5975 [Steve Henson]
5976
5977 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
5978 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
5979 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
5980 [Steve Henson]
5981
5982 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
5983 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5984 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
5985 to work with the new engine framework.
5986 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
5987
5988 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
5989 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5990 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
5991 to work with the new engine framework.
5992 [Richard Levitte]
5993
5994 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
5995 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
5996 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
5997
5998 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
5999 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
6000
6001 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
6002 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
6003 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
6004 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
6005 FORMAT_IISSGC.
6006 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6007
6008 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6009 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6010
6011 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
6012 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
6013
6014 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
6015 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
6016 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
6017 [Ben Laurie]
6018
6019 *) Add new functions
6020 ERR_peek_last_error
6021 ERR_peek_last_error_line
6022 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
6023 These are similar to
6024 ERR_peek_error
6025 ERR_peek_error_line
6026 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
6027 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
6028 still in the error queue.
6029 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
6030
6031 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
6032 like:
6033 default_algorithms = ALL
6034 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
6035 [Steve Henson]
6036
6037 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
6038 [Steve Henson]
6039
6040 *) New experimental application configuration code.
6041 [Steve Henson]
6042
6043 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
6044 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
6045 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
6046 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
6047
6048 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
6049 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
6050
6051 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
6052 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
6053
6054 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
6055 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
6056 [Bodo Moeller]
6057
6058 *) New functions/macros
6059
6060 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
6061 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
6062 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
6063 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
6064
6065 to request calling a callback function
6066
6067 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
6068 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
6069
6070 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
6071 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
6072 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
6073 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
6074 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
6075 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
6076 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
6077 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
6078 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
6079 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
6080
6081 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
6082 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
6083 [Bodo Moeller]
6084
6085 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
6086 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
6087 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
6088 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
6089 the configuration scripts.
6090
6091 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
6092 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
6093 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
6094
6095 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
6096 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6097
6098 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
6099 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
6100 when reusing an existing buffer.
6101 [Bodo Moeller]
6102
6103 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
6104 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
6105 [Steve Henson]
6106
6107 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
6108 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
6109 [Ben Laurie]
6110
6111 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
6112 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
6113 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
6114 has the same effect.
6115 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
6116
6117 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
6118 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
6119 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
6120 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
6121 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
6122 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
6123 exception.
6124
6125 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
6126 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
6127 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
6128 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
6129
6130 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
6131 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
6132 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
6133 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
6134
6135 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
6136 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
6137 won't work.
6138
6139 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
6140 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
6141 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
6142 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
6143 default), and then completely removed.
6144 [Richard Levitte]
6145
6146 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
6147 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
6148 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
6149 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
6150 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
6151 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
6152 particular extension is supported.
6153 [Steve Henson]
6154
6155 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
6156 to retain compatibility with existing code.
6157 [Steve Henson]
6158
6159 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
6160 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
6161 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
6162 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
6163 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
6164 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
6165 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
6166 requires the destination to be valid.
6167
6168 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
6169 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
6170 [Steve Henson]
6171
6172 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
6173 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
6174 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
6175 [Bodo Moeller]
6176
6177 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
6178 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
6179
6180 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
6181 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
6182 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
6183 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
6184 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
6185 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
6186 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
6187 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
6188 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
6189 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
6190 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
6191 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
6192 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
6193 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
6194 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
6195 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
6196 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
6197 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
6198 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
6199 the new code.
6200 [Geoff Thorpe]
6201
6202 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
6203 [Steve Henson]
6204
6205 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
6206 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
6207 become part of libeay.num as well.
6208 [Richard Levitte]
6209
6210 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
6211 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
6212 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
6213 false once a handshake has been completed.
6214 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
6215 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
6216 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
6217 client has followed the request.)
6218 [Bodo Moeller]
6219
6220 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
6221 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
6222 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
6223 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
6224
6225 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
6226 more bits available for options that should not be part of
6227 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
6228 [Bodo Moeller]
6229
6230 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
6231 [Steve Henson]
6232
6233 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
6234 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
6235 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
6236 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6237
6238 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
6239 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6240 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6241
6242 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
6243 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
6244 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
6245 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
6246 [Geoff Thorpe]
6247
6248 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
6249 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
6250 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
6251 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
6252 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
6253 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
6254 [Geoff Thorpe]
6255
6256 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
6257 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
6258 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
6259 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
6260 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
6261 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
6262 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
6263 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
6264 [Geoff Thorpe]
6265
6266 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
6267 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
6268 [Geoff Thorpe]
6269
6270 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
6271 [Ben Laurie]
6272
6273 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
6274 md_data void pointer.
6275 [Ben Laurie]
6276
6277 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
6278 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
6279 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
6280 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
6281 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
6282 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
6283 [Ben Laurie]
6284
6285 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
6286 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
6287 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
6288 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
6289 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
6290 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
6291 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
6292 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
6293 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
6294 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
6295 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
6296 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
6297 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
6298 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
6299 rather than letting it slide.
6300
6301 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
6302 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
6303 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
6304 [Geoff Thorpe]
6305
6306 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
6307 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
6308 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
6309 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
6310 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
6311 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
6312 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
6313 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
6314 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
6315 [Geoff Thorpe]
6316
6317 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
6318 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
6319 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
6320 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
6321 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
6322
6323 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
6324 [Geoff Thorpe]
6325
6326 *) Add EVP test program.
6327 [Ben Laurie]
6328
6329 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
6330 [Ben Laurie]
6331
6332 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
6333 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
6334 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
6335 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
6336 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
6337 [Steve Henson]
6338
6339 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
6340 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
6341 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
6342 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
6343 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
6344 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
6345 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
6346
6347 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
6348 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
6349 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
6350 Usage example:
6351
6352 EVP_MD_CTX md;
6353
6354 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
6355 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
6356 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
6357 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
6358 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
6359
6360 [Ben Laurie]
6361
6362 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
6363 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
6364 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
6365 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
6366 anyway): E.g.,
6367
6368 des_key_schedule ks;
6369
6370 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
6371 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
6372
6373 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
6374 [Ben Laurie]
6375
6376 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
6377 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
6378 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
6379 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
6380 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
6381 functions prevents this.
6382 [Steve Henson]
6383
6384 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
6385 [Ben Laurie]
6386
6387 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
6388 correct _ecb suffix.
6389 [Ben Laurie]
6390
6391 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
6392 revocation information is handled using the text based index
6393 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
6394 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
6395 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
6396 [Steve Henson]
6397
6398 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
6399 [Richard Levitte]
6400
6401 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
6402 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
6403 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
6404 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
6405
6406 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
6407 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
6408
6409 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
6410 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6411 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
6412 via Richard Levitte]
6413
6414 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
6415 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
6416 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
6417 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
6418 [Geoff Thorpe]
6419
6420 *) Speed up EVP routines.
6421 Before:
6422 encrypt
6423 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
6424 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
6425 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
6426 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k
6427 decrypt
6428 des-cbc 3482.66k 5069.49k 5496.39k 5614.16k 5639.28k
6429 des-cbc 3480.74k 5068.76k 5510.34k 5609.87k 5635.52k
6430 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
6431 After:
6432 encrypt
6433 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
6434 decrypt
6435 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
6436 [Ben Laurie]
6437
6438 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
6439 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
6440
6441 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
6442 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
6443 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
6444 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
6445 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
6446 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
6447 [Steve Henson]
6448
6449 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
6450 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
6451 [Richard Levitte]
6452
6453 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
6454 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
6455 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
6456 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
6457
6458 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
6459 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
6460 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
6461 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
6462 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
6463 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
6464 callback.
6465 [Richard Levitte]
6466
6467 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
6468 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
6469 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
6470 and interrupts/cancellations.
6471 [Richard Levitte]
6472
6473 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
6474 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
6475 [Steve Henson]
6476
6477 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
6478 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
6479 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
6480
6481 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
6482 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
6483 kind of callback.
6484 [Richard Levitte]
6485
6486 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
6487 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
6488 than this minimum value is recommended.
6489 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6490
6491 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
6492 that are easily reachable.
6493 [Richard Levitte]
6494
6495 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
6496 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
6497
6498 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
6499
6500 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
6501 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
6502 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
6503 needed for static libraries under Win32.
6504 [Steve Henson]
6505
6506 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
6507 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
6508 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
6509 [Steve Henson]
6510
6511 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
6512 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
6513 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
6514 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
6515 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
6516 internally such as S/MIME.
6517
6518 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
6519 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
6520 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
6521
6522 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
6523 applications.
6524 [Steve Henson]
6525
6526 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
6527 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
6528 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
6529 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
6530
6531 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
6532
6533 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
6534
6535 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
6536 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
6537 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
6538 handling.
6539 [Steve Henson]
6540
6541 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
6542 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
6543 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
6544 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
6545 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
6546 a window system and the like.
6547 [Richard Levitte]
6548
6549 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
6550 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
6551 [Geoff]
6552
6553 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
6554 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
6555 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
6556 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
6557 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
6558 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
6559 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
6560 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
6561 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
6562 ENGINE structure.
6563 [Geoff]
6564
6565 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
6566 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
6567 tag cache.
6568 [Steve Henson]
6569
6570 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
6571 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
6572 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
6573 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
6574 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
6575 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
6576 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
6577 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
6578 [Geoff]
6579
6580 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
6581 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
6582 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
6583 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
6584 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
6585 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
6586 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
6587 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
6588 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
6589 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
6590 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
6591 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
6592 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
6593 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
6594 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
6595 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
6596 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
6597 [Geoff]
6598
6599 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
6600 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
6601 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
6602 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
6603 internal engine_int.h header.
6604 [Geoff]
6605
6606 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
6607 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
6608 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
6609 modify their own ones).
6610 [Geoff]
6611
6612 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
6613 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
6614 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
6615 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
6616 later on via ctrl() commands.
6617 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
6618 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
6619 structural references.
6620 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
6621 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
6622 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
6623 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
6624 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
6625 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
6626 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
6627 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
6628 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
6629 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
6630 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
6631 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
6632 [Geoff]
6633
6634 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
6635 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
6636 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
6637 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
6638 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
6639 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
6640 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
6641 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
6642 [Bodo Moeller]
6643
6644 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
6645 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
6646 [Steve Henson]
6647
6648 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
6649 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
6650 [Steve Henson]
6651
6652 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
6653 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
6654 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
6655 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
6656 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
6657 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
6658 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
6659 [Steve Henson]
6660
6661 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
6662 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
6663 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
6664 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
6665 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
6666
6667 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
6668 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
6669 generator).
6670 [Bodo Moeller]
6671
6672 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
6673
6674 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
6675 operations and provides various method functions that can also
6676 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
6677
6678 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
6679 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
6680
6681 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
6682 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
6683 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
6684
6685 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
6686 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
6687
6688 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
6689 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
6690
6691 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
6692
6693 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
6694 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
6695 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
6696 [Bodo Moeller]
6697
6698 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
6699 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
6700 [Richard Levitte]
6701
6702 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
6703 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
6704 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
6705 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
6706 is 40 of more characters long.
6707 [Steve Henson]
6708
6709 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
6710 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
6711 pointers.
6712 [Steve Henson]
6713
6714 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
6715 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
6716 [Bodo Moeller]
6717
6718 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
6719 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
6720 might.
6721 [Steve Henson]
6722
6723 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
6724
6725 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
6726 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
6727
6728 ASN1 error codes
6729 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
6730 ...
6731 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
6732 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
6733 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
6734 ...
6735 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
6736 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
6737
6738 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
6739 [Bodo Moeller]
6740
6741 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
6742 suffices.
6743 [Bodo Moeller]
6744
6745 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
6746 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
6747 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
6748 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
6749 and
6750 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
6751
6752 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
6753 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
6754
6755 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
6756 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
6757 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
6758 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
6759 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
6760 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
6761
6762 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
6763 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
6764
6765 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
6766 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
6767
6768 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
6769 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
6770
6771 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
6772 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
6773 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
6774 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
6775
6776 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
6777 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
6778
6779 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
6780 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
6781
6782 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
6783 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
6784 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
6785 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
6786 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
6787 [Richard Levitte]
6788
6789 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
6790 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
6791 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
6792 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
6793 [Steve Henson]
6794
6795 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
6796 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
6797 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
6798 trust settings.
6799 [Steve Henson]
6800
6801 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
6802 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
6803 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
6804 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
6805 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
6806 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
6807 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
6808 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
6809 ocsp utility.
6810 [Steve Henson]
6811
6812 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
6813 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
6814 [Steve Henson]
6815
6816 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
6817 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
6818 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
6819 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
6820 [Steve Henson]
6821
6822 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
6823 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
6824 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
6825 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
6826 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
6827 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
6828 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
6829 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
6830 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
6831 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
6832 [Steve Henson]
6833
6834 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
6835 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
6836 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
6837 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
6838 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
6839 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
6840 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
6841 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6842
6843 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
6844 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
6845 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
6846 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
6847 [Richard Levitte]
6848
6849 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
6850 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
6851 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
6852 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
6853 opensslconf.h.
6854 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
6855 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
6856 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
6857 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
6858 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
6859 what is available.
6860 [Richard Levitte]
6861
6862 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
6863 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
6864 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
6865 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
6866 auto incremented.
6867 [Steve Henson]
6868
6869 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
6870 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
6871 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
6874 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
6875 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
6876 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
6877 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
6878 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
6879 [Steve Henson]
6880
6881 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
6882 [Steve Henson]
6883
6884 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
6885 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
6886 option to ocsp utility.
6887 [Steve Henson]
6888
6889 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
6890 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
6891 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
6892 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
6893 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
6894 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
6895 the request is nonce-less.
6896 [Steve Henson]
6897
6898 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
6899 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
6900 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
6901 [Bodo Moeller]
6902
6903 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
6904 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
6905 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
6906 [Steve Henson]
6907
6908 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
6909 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
6910 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
6911 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
6912 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
6913 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6914
6915 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
6916 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
6917 appear to exist.
6918 [Steve Henson]
6919
6920 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
6921 additional certificates supplied.
6922 [Steve Henson]
6923
6924 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
6925 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
6926 signature against.
6927 [Richard Levitte]
6928
6929 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
6930 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
6931 AES OIDs.
6932
6933 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
6934 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
6935 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
6936 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
6937 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
6938 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
6939 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
6940 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
6941 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6942
6943 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
6944 request to response.
6945 [Steve Henson]
6946
6947 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
6948 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
6949 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
6950 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
6951 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
6952 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
6953 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
6954 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
6955 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
6956 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
6957 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
6958 [Steve Henson]
6959
6960 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
6961 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
6962 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
6963 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
6964 [Steve Henson]
6965
6966 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
6967 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6968
6969 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
6970 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
6971 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
6972 [Steve Henson]
6973
6974 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
6975 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
6976 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
6977 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6978 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6979
6980 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
6981 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
6982 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
6983 [Steve Henson]
6984
6985 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
6986 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
6987 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
6988 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
6989 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
6990 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
6991 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6992 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6993
6994 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
6995 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
6996 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
6997 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
6998 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
6999 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
7000 [Steve Henson]
7001
7002 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
7003 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
7004 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
7005 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
7006 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
7007 printout format cleaned up.
7008 [Steve Henson]
7009
7010 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
7011 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
7012 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
7013 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
7014 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
7015 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
7016 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
7017 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
7018 [Steve Henson]
7019
7020 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
7021 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
7022 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
7023 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
7024 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
7025 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
7026 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
7027 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
7028 [Steve Henson]
7029
7030 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
7031 extensions from a separate configuration file.
7032 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
7033 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
7034 section to use.
7035 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
7036
7037 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
7038 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
7039 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
7040 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
7041 [Steve Henson]
7042
7043 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
7044 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
7045 the given serial number (according to the index file).
7046 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
7047 in the index file.
7048 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
7049
7050 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
7051 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
7052 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
7053 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
7054
7055 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
7056 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
7057
7058 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
7059 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
7060 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
7061 [Steve Henson]
7062
7063 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
7064 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
7065 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
7066 [Bodo Moeller]
7067
7068 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
7069 file name and line number information in additional arguments
7070 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
7071 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
7072 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
7073 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
7074 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
7075 functions are provided:
7076
7077 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
7078 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
7079 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
7080 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
7081
7082 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
7083 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
7084 extended allocation function is enabled.
7085 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
7086 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
7087 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
7088
7089 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
7090 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
7091 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
7092 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
7093 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
7094 [Geoff Thorpe]
7095
7096 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
7097 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
7098 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
7099 be queried.
7100 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
7101 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
7102 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
7103 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7104
7105 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
7106 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
7107 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
7108 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
7109 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
7110 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
7111 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
7112 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
7113 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
7114 [Richard Levitte]
7115
7116 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
7117 provide utility functions which an application needing
7118 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
7119 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
7120 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
7121
7122 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
7123 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
7124 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
7125 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
7126 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
7127 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
7128 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
7129 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
7130 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
7131
7132 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
7133 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
7134 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
7135 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
7136 [Steve Henson]
7137
7138 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
7139 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
7140 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
7141 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
7142 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
7143 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
7144 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
7145 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
7146 will be added elsewhere.
7147 [Steve Henson]
7148
7149 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
7150 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
7151 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
7152 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
7153 [Steve Henson]
7154
7155 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
7156 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
7157 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
7158 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
7159 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
7160 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
7161 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
7162 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
7163 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
7164 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
7165 to produce the required SET OF.
7166 [Steve Henson]
7167
7168 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
7169 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
7170 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
7171 [Richard Levitte]
7172
7173 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
7174 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
7175 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
7176 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
7177 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
7178 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
7179 [Steve Henson]
7180
7181 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
7182 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
7183 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
7184 [Steve Henson]
7185
7186 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
7187 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
7188 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
7189 [Richard Levitte]
7190
7191 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
7192 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
7193 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
7194 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
7195 code will still work when these eventually go away.
7196 [Steve Henson]
7197
7198 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
7199 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
7200 [Steve Henson]
7201
7202 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
7203 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
7204 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
7205 certifcates and CRLs.
7206 [Steve Henson]
7207
7208 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
7209 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
7210 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
7211 [Steve Henson]
7212
7213 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
7214 entries for variables.
7215 [Steve Henson]
7216
7217 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
7218 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
7219 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
7220 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
7221 [Bodo Moeller]
7222
7223 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
7224 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
7225 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
7226 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
7227 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
7228 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
7229 [Bodo Moeller]
7230
7231 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
7232 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
7233
7234 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
7235 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
7236 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
7237 [Steve Henson]
7238
7239 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
7240 print routines.
7241 [Steve Henson]
7242
7243 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
7244 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
7245 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
7246 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
7247 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
7248 order did not reflect the encoded order.
7249 [Steve Henson]
7250
7251 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
7252 [Steve Henson]
7253
7254 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
7255 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
7256 for now but they will eventually go away.
7257 [Steve Henson]
7258
7259 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
7260 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
7261 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
7262 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
7263 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
7264 has also been converted to the new form.
7265 [Steve Henson]
7266
7267 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
7268 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
7269 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
7270 for negative moduli.
7271 [Bodo Moeller]
7272
7273 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
7274 of not touching the result's sign bit.
7275 [Bodo Moeller]
7276
7277 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
7278 set.
7279 [Bodo Moeller]
7280
7281 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
7282 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
7283 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
7284 type-specific callbacks.
7285 [Geoff Thorpe]
7286
7287 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
7288 RFC 2712.
7289 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7290 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
7291
7292 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
7293 in sections depending on the subject.
7294 [Richard Levitte]
7295
7296 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
7297 Windows.
7298 [Richard Levitte]
7299
7300 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
7301 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
7302 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
7303 be handled deterministically).
7304 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
7305
7306 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
7307 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
7308 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
7309 [Bodo Moeller]
7310
7311 *) New function BN_kronecker.
7312 [Bodo Moeller]
7313
7314 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
7315 positive unless both parameters are zero.
7316 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
7317 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
7318 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
7319 [Bodo Moeller]
7320
7321 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
7322 sign of the number in question.
7323
7324 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
7325
7326 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
7327 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
7328 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
7329 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
7330 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
7331 [Bodo Moeller]
7332
7333 *) New function BN_swap.
7334 [Bodo Moeller]
7335
7336 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
7337 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
7338 results on negative inputs.
7339 [Bodo Moeller]
7340
7341 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
7342 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
7343 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
7344 [Bodo Moeller]
7345
7346 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
7347 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
7348 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
7349 and add new functions:
7350
7351 BN_nnmod
7352 BN_mod_sqr
7353 BN_mod_add
7354 BN_mod_add_quick
7355 BN_mod_sub
7356 BN_mod_sub_quick
7357 BN_mod_lshift1
7358 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
7359 BN_mod_lshift
7360 BN_mod_lshift_quick
7361
7362 These functions always generate non-negative results.
7363
7364 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
7365 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
7366
7367 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
7368 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
7369 be reduced modulo m.
7370 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
7371
7372 #if 0
7373 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
7374 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
7375 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
7376
7377 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
7378 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
7379 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
7380 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
7381 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
7382 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
7383 differing sizes.
7384 [Richard Levitte]
7385 #endif
7386
7387 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
7388 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
7389 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
7390 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
7391 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
7392
7393 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
7394 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
7395 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
7396 cause any problems.
7397 [Bodo Moeller]
7398
7399 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
7400 [Richard Levitte]
7401
7402 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
7403 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
7404 [Richard Levitte]
7405
7406 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
7407 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
7408 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
7409 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
7410 time)
7411 [Richard Levitte]
7412
7413 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
7414 [Richard Levitte]
7415
7416 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
7417 [Richard Levitte]
7418
7419 *) Add the following functions:
7420
7421 ENGINE_load_cswift()
7422 ENGINE_load_chil()
7423 ENGINE_load_atalla()
7424 ENGINE_load_nuron()
7425 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
7426
7427 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
7428 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
7429 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
7430 libraries unless it's really needed.
7431
7432 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
7433 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
7434 declarations (they differed!).
7435 [Richard Levitte]
7436
7437 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
7438 [Richard Levitte]
7439
7440 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
7441 [Richard Levitte]
7442
7443 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
7444 [Bodo Moeller]
7445
7446 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
7447 identity, and test if they are actually available.
7448 [Richard Levitte]
7449
7450 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
7451 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
7452 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
7453
7454 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
7455 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
7456 [Richard Levitte]
7457
7458 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
7459 [Richard Levitte]
7460
7461 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
7462 [Richard Levitte]
7463
7464 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
7465 [Ben Laurie]
7466
7467 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
7468 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
7469 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
7470
7471 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
7472 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
7473 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
7474 different shared library filenames on each system.
7475 [Geoff Thorpe]
7476
7477 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
7478 [Richard Levitte]
7479
7480 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
7481 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
7482 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
7483 of two sections.
7484 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
7485
7486 *) NCONF changes.
7487 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
7488 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
7489 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
7490 binary backward compatibility.
7491 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
7492 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
7493 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
7494 LDAP server.
7495 [Richard Levitte]
7496
7497 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
7498 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
7499 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
7500 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
7501 this case.
7502 [Steve Henson]
7503
7504 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
7505 [Ben Laurie]
7506
7507 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
7508 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
7509 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
7510 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
7511 set.
7512 [Steve Henson]
7513
7514 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
7515 [Richard Levitte]
7516
7517 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
7518
7519 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
7520 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
7521 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
7522
7523 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
7524
7525 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
7526
7527 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
7528 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
7529 [Steve Henson]
7530
7531 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
7532
7533 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
7534
7535 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
7536 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
7537
7538 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
7539 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
7540
7541 [Steve Henson]
7542
7543 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
7544 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
7545 specifications.
7546 [Steve Henson]
7547
7548 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
7549 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
7550 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
7551 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
7552
7553 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
7554 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
7555 [Richard Levitte]
7556
7557 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
7558
7559 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
7560 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
7561 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
7562 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
7563 [Bodo Moeller]
7564
7565 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
7566 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
7567 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
7568 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
7569 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7570
7571 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
7572 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
7573 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
7574 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
7575 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
7576 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
7577 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
7578 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
7579 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
7580 [Bodo Moeller]
7581
7582 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
7583
7584 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
7585 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
7586 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
7587 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
7588 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
7589
7590 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
7591 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
7592 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
7593
7594 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
7595
7596 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
7597 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
7598 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
7599 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
7600 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
7601 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
7602 [Geoff Thorpe]
7603
7604 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
7605 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
7606 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
7607 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
7608 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
7609 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7610
7611 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
7612 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
7613 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
7614
7615 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
7616 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
7617 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
7618 EVP_cleanup().
7619 [Richard Levitte]
7620
7621 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
7622 being properly terminated.
7623 [Richard Levitte]
7624
7625 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
7626 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
7627 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
7628 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
7629
7630 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
7631 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
7632 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
7633 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
7634 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
7635 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
7636 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
7637 change.
7638 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
7639
7640 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
7641 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
7642 [Bodo Moeller]
7643
7644 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
7645 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
7646 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
7647 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
7648 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
7649 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
7650 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
7651 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
7652
7653 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
7654 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
7655 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
7656 (see [openssl.org #212]).
7657 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
7658
7659 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
7660 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
7661 [Steve Henson]
7662
7663 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
7664
7665 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
7666 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
7667 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
7668
7669 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
7670
7671 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
7672 and get fix the header length calculation.
7673 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
7674 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
7675 Steve Henson]
7676
7677 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
7678 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
7679 assertions could call abort()).
7680 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
7681
7682 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
7683
7684 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
7685 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
7686 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
7687 supplied buffer.
7688 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
7689
7690 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
7691 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
7692 by the selection routines (PR #130).
7693 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7694
7695 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
7696 [Nils Larsch]
7697
7698 *) New option
7699 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
7700 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
7701 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
7702
7703 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
7704 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
7705 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
7706 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
7707 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
7708 applications.
7709 [Bodo Moeller]
7710
7711 *) Changes in security patch:
7712
7713 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
7714 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
7715 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
7716 F30602-01-2-0537.
7717
7718 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
7719 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
7720 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
7721 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
7722 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
7723
7724 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
7725 happen in practice.
7726 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7727
7728 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
7729 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
7730 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
7731
7732 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7733 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
7734 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7735
7736 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
7737 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
7738 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7739
7740 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
7741
7742 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
7743 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
7744 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
7745
7746 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
7747 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
7748
7749 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
7750 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
7751 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
7752 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
7753 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
7754 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
7755 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7756
7757 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
7758 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
7759 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
7760 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
7761 [Bodo Moeller]
7762
7763 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
7764 [Bodo Moeller]
7765
7766 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
7767 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
7768 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
7769 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
7770 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
7771 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7772
7773 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
7774 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
7775 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
7776 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
7777 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
7778 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7779
7780 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
7781 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
7782 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
7783 BN_generate_prime().)
7784
7785 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
7786 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
7787 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
7788 better.
7789 [Bodo Moeller]
7790
7791 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
7792 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
7793 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7794
7795 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
7796 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
7797 when using non-blocking I/O.
7798 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
7799
7800 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
7801 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
7802
7803 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
7804 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
7805 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7806
7807 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
7808 configuration for the versions before that.
7809 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7810
7811 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
7812 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
7813 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
7814 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
7815 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7816
7817 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
7818 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
7819 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
7820 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7821
7822 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
7823 value is 0.
7824 [Richard Levitte]
7825
7826 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
7827 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7828 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7829
7830 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
7831 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
7832
7833 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
7834 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
7835 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
7836 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
7837 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
7838 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
7839 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
7840 session cache.
7841
7842 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
7843 using a local variable.
7844 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7845
7846 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
7847 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
7848 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7849
7850 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
7851 [Richard Levitte]
7852
7853 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
7854 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
7855
7856 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
7857 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
7858 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
7859
7860 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
7861
7862 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
7863 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
7864 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
7865 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
7866 [Bodo Moeller]
7867
7868 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
7869 present.
7870 [Steve Henson]
7871
7872 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
7873 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
7874 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
7875 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
7876 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
7877
7878 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
7879 returns early because it has nothing to do.
7880 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7881
7882 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7883 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
7884 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7885
7886 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7887 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
7888 (Use engine 'keyclient')
7889 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
7890
7891 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
7892 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
7893 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
7894 modules).
7895 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
7896
7897 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7898 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
7899 from 0.9.7.
7900 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
7901
7902 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7903 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
7904 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7905 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
7906
7907 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7908 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
7909 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7910 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
7911
7912 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
7913 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
7914
7915 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
7916 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
7917 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
7918 [Bodo Moeller]
7919
7920 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
7921 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
7922 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
7923 become invalid.
7924 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
7925
7926 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
7927 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
7928 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
7929 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
7930 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
7931 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
7932 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
7933 [Bodo Moeller]
7934
7935 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
7936 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
7937 one of the SSL handshake functions.
7938 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
7939
7940 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
7941 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
7942 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
7943 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
7944 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
7945 the client will at least see that alert.
7946 [Bodo Moeller]
7947
7948 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
7949 correctly.
7950 [Bodo Moeller]
7951
7952 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
7953 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
7954 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7955
7956 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
7957 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
7958 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
7959 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
7960 HelloRequest.
7961
7962 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
7963 before just sending a HelloRequest.
7964 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
7965
7966 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
7967 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
7968 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
7969 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
7970 may leak via logfiles.)
7971
7972 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
7973 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
7974 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
7975 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
7976 the legal range.
7977 [Bodo Moeller]
7978
7979 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
7980 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7981 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7982
7983 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
7984 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
7985 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
7986 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
7987 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
7988 [Bodo Moeller]
7989
7990 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
7991 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
7992
7993 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
7994 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
7995 followed by modular reduction.
7996 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
7997
7998 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
7999 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
8000 [Bodo Moeller]
8001
8002 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
8003 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
8004 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
8005 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
8006 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8007
8008 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
8009 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8010
8011 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
8012 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
8013 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8014
8015 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
8016 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
8017 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
8018 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
8019 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
8020 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
8021 automatically.
8022 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
8023
8024 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
8025 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
8026 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
8027 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
8028 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
8029
8030 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
8031 [Andy Polyakov]
8032
8033 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
8034 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
8035 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
8036 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
8037 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
8038 to allow the necessary settings.
8039 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8040
8041 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
8042 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
8043 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
8044 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
8045 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8046
8047 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
8048 dh->length and always used
8049
8050 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
8051
8052 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
8053 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
8054 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
8055 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
8056 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
8057 dh->length.
8058
8059 So switch back to
8060
8061 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
8062
8063 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
8064 otherwise.
8065 [Bodo Moeller]
8066
8067 *) In
8068
8069 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
8070 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
8071 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
8072 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
8073
8074 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
8075 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
8076 always reject numbers >= n.
8077 [Bodo Moeller]
8078
8079 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
8080 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
8081 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
8082 variable) is not atomic.
8083 [Bodo Moeller]
8084
8085 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
8086 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
8087 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
8088 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
8089
8090 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
8091 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
8092
8093 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
8094 little-endian MIPS.
8095 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
8096
8097 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
8098 [Richard Levitte]
8099
8100 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
8101
8102 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
8103 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
8104 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
8105 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
8106 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
8107 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
8108 to traverse all of 'state'.
8109
8110 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
8111 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
8112 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
8113
8114 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
8115 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
8116
8117 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
8118 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
8119 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
8120 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
8121 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
8122 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
8123 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
8124 further strengthens the PRNG.
8125 [Bodo Moeller]
8126
8127 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
8128 [Andy Polyakov]
8129
8130 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
8131 an error message in this case.
8132 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8133
8134 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
8135 [Steve Henson]
8136
8137 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
8138 positive and less than q.
8139 [Bodo Moeller]
8140
8141 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
8142 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
8143 that itself.
8144 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
8145
8146 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
8147 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
8148 [Bodo Moeller]
8149
8150 *) Fix OAEP check.
8151 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8152
8153 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
8154 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
8155 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
8156 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
8157 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
8158 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
8159 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
8160 paper.)
8161
8162 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
8163 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
8164 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
8165 detect the supposedly ignored error.
8166
8167 Both problems are now fixed.
8168 [Bodo Moeller]
8169
8170 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
8171 (previously it was 1024).
8172 [Bodo Moeller]
8173
8174 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
8175 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
8176 [Steve Henson]
8177
8178 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
8179 [Steve Henson]
8180
8181 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
8182 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
8183 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
8184 [Steve Henson]
8185
8186 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
8187 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
8188 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
8189 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
8190 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
8191 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
8192 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
8193 environment variables.
8194
8195 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
8196 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
8197 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
8198 [Bodo Moeller]
8199
8200 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
8201 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
8202 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
8203 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
8204 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
8205 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
8206 [Bodo Moeller]
8207
8208 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
8209 versions of 'test'.
8210 [Bodo Moeller]
8211
8212 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
8213
8214 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
8215 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
8216
8217 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
8218 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
8219 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
8220 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
8221 CygWin.
8222 [Richard Levitte]
8223
8224 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
8225 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
8226 amount of data available.
8227 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
8228 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8229
8230 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
8231 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
8232 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
8233 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
8234 [Bodo Moeller]
8235
8236 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
8237 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
8238 and UnixWare.
8239 [Richard Levitte]
8240
8241 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
8242 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
8243 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
8244 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
8245 [Ulf Moeller]
8246
8247 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
8248 [Andy Polyakov]
8249
8250 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
8251 [Richard Levitte]
8252
8253 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
8254 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
8255 [Steve Henson]
8256 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8257
8258 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
8259 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
8260 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
8261 (but broken) behaviour.
8262 [Steve Henson]
8263
8264 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
8265 it when found.
8266 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
8267
8268 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
8269 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
8270 [Bodo Moeller]
8271
8272 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
8273 did not exist.
8274 [Bodo Moeller]
8275
8276 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
8277 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
8278
8279 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
8280 [Richard Levitte]
8281
8282 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
8283 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
8284 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
8285
8286 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
8287 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
8288 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
8289 [Steve Henson]
8290
8291 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
8292 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
8293 [Ulf Moeller]
8294
8295 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
8296 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
8297
8298 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
8299
8300 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
8301
8302 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
8303 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
8304 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
8305 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
8306 [Bodo Moeller]
8307
8308 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
8309 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8310
8311 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
8312 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
8313 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
8314
8315 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
8316 was empty.
8317 [Steve Henson]
8318 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8319
8320 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
8321 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
8322 but the code is actually correct.
8323 [Steve Henson]
8324
8325 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
8326 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
8327 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
8328 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
8329 and leaves the highest bit random.
8330 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8331
8332 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
8333 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
8334 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
8335 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
8336 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
8337 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
8338 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
8339 [Bodo Moeller]
8340
8341 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
8342 [Ulf Moeller]
8343
8344 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
8345 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
8346 [Steve Henson]
8347
8348 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
8349 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
8350 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
8351 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
8352 headers.
8353 [Richard Levitte]
8354
8355 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
8356 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
8357 and break the signature.
8358 [Steve Henson]
8359 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8360
8361 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
8362 DH ciphersuites.
8363 [Steve Henson]
8364
8365 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
8366 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
8367 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
8368 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
8369 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
8370 [Bodo Moeller]
8371
8372 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
8373 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
8374
8375 *) ./config script fixes.
8376 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
8377
8378 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
8379 [Bodo Moeller]
8380
8381 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
8382 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
8383 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
8384 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
8385 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
8386
8387 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
8388 call failed, free the DSA structure.
8389 [Bodo Moeller]
8390
8391 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
8392 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
8393 [Steve Henson]
8394
8395 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
8396 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
8397 when writing a 32767 byte record.
8398 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
8399
8400 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
8401 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
8402
8403 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
8404 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
8405 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
8406 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
8407 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
8408
8409 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
8410 [Bodo Moeller]
8411
8412 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
8413 [Ulf Möller]
8414
8415 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
8416 [Ulf Möller]
8417
8418 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
8419 [Bodo Moeller]
8420
8421 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
8422 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
8423 [Bodo Moeller]
8424
8425 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
8426 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
8427 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
8428 result of the server certificate verification.)
8429 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8430
8431 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
8432 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
8433 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
8434 [Bodo Moeller]
8435
8436 *) Fix SSL_peek:
8437 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
8438 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
8439 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
8440 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
8441 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
8442 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
8443 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
8444 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
8445 [Bodo Moeller]
8446
8447 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
8448 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
8449 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
8450 happening the other way round.
8451 [Geoff Thorpe]
8452
8453 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
8454 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
8455 [Bodo Moeller]
8456
8457 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
8458 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
8459 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
8460 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
8461 [Richard Levitte]
8462
8463 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
8464 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
8465
8466 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
8467
8468 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
8469 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
8470 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
8471 that.
8472
8473 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
8474
8475 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
8476
8477 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
8478 static ones.
8479 [Richard Levitte]
8480
8481 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
8482
8483 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
8484 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
8485 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
8486 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
8487 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
8488
8489 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
8490 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
8491 matter what.
8492 [Richard Levitte]
8493
8494 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
8495 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8496
8497 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
8498
8499 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
8500 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
8501 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
8502 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
8503 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
8504 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
8505 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
8506 by the Finished messages.
8507 [Bodo Moeller]
8508
8509 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
8510 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
8511
8512 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
8513 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
8514 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
8515 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
8516 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
8517 appropriately.
8518 [Steve Henson]
8519
8520 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
8521 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
8522 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
8523 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
8524 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
8525 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
8526 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
8527 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
8528 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
8529 together.
8530 [Steve Henson]
8531
8532 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
8533 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
8534 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
8535 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
8536
8537 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
8538 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
8539 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
8540 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
8541 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
8542 the answer.
8543
8544 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
8545 been tested well enough.
8546 [Richard Levitte]
8547
8548 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
8549 it can return incorrect results.
8550 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
8551 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
8552 [Bodo Moeller]
8553
8554 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
8555 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
8556 include zero length content when signing messages.
8557 [Steve Henson]
8558
8559 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
8560 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
8561 [Bodo Möller]
8562
8563 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
8564 [Richard Levitte]
8565
8566 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
8567 wrong sign.
8568 [Ulf Möller]
8569
8570 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
8571 packages. The default package contains applications, application
8572 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
8573 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
8574 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
8575 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
8576 [Richard Levitte]
8577
8578 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
8579 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8580
8581 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
8582 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
8583
8584 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
8585 random number < q in the DSA library.
8586 [Ulf Möller]
8587
8588 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
8589 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
8590 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
8591 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
8592 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
8593 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
8594 just makes things more complicated.)
8595 [Bodo Moeller]
8596
8597 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
8598 from EGD.
8599 [Ben Laurie]
8600
8601 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
8602 work better on such systems.
8603 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8604
8605 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
8606 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
8607 keyid to the certificates aux info.
8608 [Steve Henson]
8609
8610 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
8611 if there was more than one signature.
8612 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
8613
8614 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
8615 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
8616 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
8617 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
8618 [Richard Levitte]
8619
8620 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
8621 rather than always using the current time.
8622 [Steve Henson]
8623
8624 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
8625 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
8626 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
8627 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
8628 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
8629 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
8630
8631 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
8632 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
8633
8634 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
8635
8636 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
8637 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
8638 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
8639 the same hash value.
8640
8641 As a result various functions (which were all internal
8642 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
8643 structure. This will break anything that messed round
8644 with X509_STORE internally.
8645
8646 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
8647 exact match, rather than just subject name.
8648
8649 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
8650 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
8651 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
8652 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
8653 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
8654 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
8655 entirely (maybe later...).
8656
8657 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
8658
8659 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
8660 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
8661 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
8662 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
8663 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
8664 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
8665 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
8666 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
8667
8668 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
8669 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
8670
8671 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
8672 to customise the verify behaviour.
8673 [Steve Henson]
8674
8675 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
8676 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
8677 [Steve Henson]
8678
8679 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
8680 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
8681 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
8682 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
8683 request is improperly encoded.
8684 [Steve Henson]
8685
8686 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
8687 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
8688 BIO_write(b, ...).
8689
8690 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
8691 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
8692
8693 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
8694 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
8695 words set to zero.)
8696 [Bodo Moeller]
8697
8698 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
8699 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
8700 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
8701 [Bodo Moeller]
8702
8703 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
8704 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
8705 BIO/fp routines also added.
8706 [Steve Henson]
8707
8708 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
8709 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
8710
8711 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
8712 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
8713 demos/state_machine.
8714 [Ben Laurie]
8715
8716 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
8717 generation and verification.
8718 [Steve Henson]
8719
8720 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
8721 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
8722 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
8723 encode and decode it manually.
8724 [Steve Henson]
8725
8726 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
8727 compile under VC++.
8728 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
8729
8730 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
8731 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
8732 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
8733 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
8734
8735 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
8736 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
8737 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
8738 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
8739 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
8740 [Steve Henson]
8741
8742 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
8743 [Richard Levitte]
8744
8745 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
8746 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
8747 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
8748
8749 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
8750 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
8751 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
8752 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
8753 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
8754 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
8755 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
8756 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
8757
8758 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
8759 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
8760
8761 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
8762
8763 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
8764 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
8765 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
8766
8767 [Richard Levitte]
8768
8769 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
8770 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
8771 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
8772 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
8773 [Richard Levitte]
8774
8775 *) MD4 implemented.
8776 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
8777
8778 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
8779 [Richard Levitte]
8780
8781 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
8782 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
8783 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
8784 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
8785 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
8786 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
8787 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
8788 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
8789 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
8790 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
8791 short or long names are found.
8792 [Steve Henson]
8793
8794 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
8795 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
8796
8797 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
8798 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
8799 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
8800 version rollback attacks was not effective.
8801
8802 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
8803 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
8804 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
8805 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
8806 [Bodo Moeller]
8807
8808 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
8809 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
8810 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
8811 [Richard Levitte]
8812
8813 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
8814 these print out strings and name structures based on various
8815 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
8816 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
8817 to allow the various flags to be set.
8818 [Steve Henson]
8819
8820 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
8821 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
8822 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
8823 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
8824 dates to be checked.
8825 [Steve Henson]
8826
8827 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
8828 negative public key encodings) on by default,
8829 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
8830 [Steve Henson]
8831
8832 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
8833 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
8834 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
8835 [Steve Henson]
8836
8837 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
8838 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
8839 [Bodo Moeller]
8840
8841 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
8842 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
8843 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
8844 are always statically linked for now, but there are
8845 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
8846 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
8847 [Richard Levitte]
8848
8849 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
8850 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
8851 Random Numbers.
8852 [Ulf Möller]
8853
8854 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
8855 DSA key.
8856 [Steve Henson]
8857
8858 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
8859 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
8860 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
8861 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
8862 form signing output easier to verify.
8863 [Steve Henson]
8864
8865 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
8866 [Steve Henson]
8867
8868 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
8869 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
8870 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
8871 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
8872 are needed because all other string types have virtually
8873 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
8874 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
8875 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
8876 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
8877 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
8878 [Steve Henson]
8879
8880 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
8881
8882 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
8883 the syntax given in objects.README.
8884 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
8885 obj_mac.h.
8886 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
8887 obj_mac.h.
8888
8889 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
8890 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
8891 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
8892 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
8893 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
8894 consistent name changes.
8895 [Richard Levitte]
8896
8897 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
8898 [Bodo Moeller]
8899
8900 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
8901 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
8902 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
8903 environment variable, or the default random state file.
8904 [Richard Levitte]
8905
8906 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
8907 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
8908 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
8909 of safestack.h .
8910 [Steve Henson]
8911
8912 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
8913 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
8914 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
8915 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
8916 [Steve Henson]
8917
8918 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
8919 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
8920 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
8921 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
8922 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
8923 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
8924 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
8925 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
8926 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
8927 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
8928 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
8929 [Steve Henson]
8930
8931 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
8932 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
8933 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
8934 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
8935 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
8936 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
8937 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
8938 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
8939 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
8940 algorithm to openssl-dev.
8941 [Steve Henson]
8942
8943 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
8944 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
8945 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
8946 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
8947
8948 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
8949 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
8950 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
8951 omit any duplicate addresses.
8952 [Steve Henson]
8953
8954 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
8955 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
8956 [Bodo Moeller]
8957
8958 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
8959 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
8960 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
8961 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
8962 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
8963 [Bodo Moeller]
8964
8965 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
8966 software:
8967 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
8968 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
8969 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
8970 Free => OPENSSL_free
8971 [Richard Levitte]
8972
8973 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
8974 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
8975 [Bodo Moeller]
8976
8977 *) CygWin32 support.
8978 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
8979
8980 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
8981 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
8982 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
8983 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
8984 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
8985 approach.
8986 [Geoff Thorpe]
8987
8988 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
8989 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
8990 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
8991 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
8992 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
8993 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
8994 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
8995 [Geoff Thorpe]
8996
8997 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
8998 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
8999 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
9000 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
9001 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
9002 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
9003 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
9004 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
9005 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
9006 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
9007 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
9008 [Bodo Moeller]
9009
9010 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
9011 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
9012 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
9013 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
9014 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
9015
9016 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
9017 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
9018 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
9019 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
9020 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
9021
9022 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
9023 ciphers.
9024
9025 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
9026 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
9027 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
9028 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
9029
9030 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
9031
9032 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
9033 of macros.
9034
9035 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
9036 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
9037 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
9038 flags.
9039
9040 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
9041 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
9042 any installed hardware versions can.
9043 [Steve Henson]
9044
9045 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
9046 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
9047 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
9048 number.
9049 [Bodo Moeller]
9050
9051 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
9052 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
9053 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
9054 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
9055 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
9056
9057 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
9058 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
9059 [Steve Henson]
9060
9061 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
9062 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
9063 [Richard Levitte]
9064
9065 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
9066 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
9067 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
9068 features.
9069 [Steve Henson]
9070
9071 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
9072 [Ulf Möller]
9073
9074 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
9075 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
9076 but no ssl client purpose.
9077 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
9078
9079 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
9080 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
9081 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
9082 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
9083 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
9084 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
9085 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
9086 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
9087 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
9088 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
9089 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
9090 [Steve Henson]
9091
9092 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
9093 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
9094 be obtained from the error queue.
9095 [Bodo Moeller]
9096
9097 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
9098 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
9099 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
9100 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
9101 [Bodo Moeller]
9102
9103 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
9104 [Ulf Möller]
9105
9106 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
9107 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
9108 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
9109 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
9110 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
9111 [Geoff Thorpe]
9112
9113 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
9114 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
9115 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
9116 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
9117 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
9118 [Geoff Thorpe]
9119
9120 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
9121 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
9122 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
9123 may not be NULL.
9124 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
9125
9126 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
9127 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
9128 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
9129 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
9130 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
9131 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
9132 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
9133 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
9134 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
9135 or "the configuration storage API"...
9136
9137 The new configuration file reading functions are:
9138
9139 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
9140 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
9141
9142 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
9143
9144 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
9145
9146 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
9147 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
9148 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
9149 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
9150 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
9151 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
9152 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
9153
9154 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
9155 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
9156 [Richard Levitte]
9157
9158 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
9159 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
9160 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
9161 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
9162 [Bodo Moeller]
9163
9164 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
9165 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
9166 them in a portable way.
9167 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
9168
9169 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
9170
9171 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
9172
9173 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
9174 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
9175
9176 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
9177 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
9178 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
9179 <attili@amaxo.com>]
9180
9181 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
9182 was larger than the MD block size.
9183 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
9184
9185 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
9186 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
9187 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
9188 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
9189 components.
9190 [Steve Henson]
9191
9192 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
9193 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
9194 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
9195
9196 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
9197 discouraged.
9198 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
9199
9200 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
9201 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
9202 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
9203 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
9204 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
9205 Additional arguments are always ignored.
9206
9207 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
9208 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
9209
9210 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
9211 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
9212 [Bodo Moeller]
9213
9214 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
9215 [Bodo Moeller]
9216
9217 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
9218 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
9219 its own key.
9220 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
9221 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
9222 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
9223 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
9224 [Bodo Moeller]
9225
9226 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
9227 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
9228 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
9229 does not suppress any output.
9230 [Richard Levitte]
9231
9232 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
9233 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
9234 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
9235 with all the associated security issues.
9236
9237 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
9238 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
9239 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
9240 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
9241 use the value in the default purpose.
9242 [Steve Henson]
9243
9244 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
9245 and fix a memory leak.
9246 [Steve Henson]
9247
9248 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
9249 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
9250 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
9251 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
9252 [Bodo Moeller]
9253
9254 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
9255 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
9256 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
9257 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
9258 [Bodo Moeller]
9259
9260 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
9261 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
9262 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
9263 [Bodo Moeller]
9264
9265 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
9266 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
9267 [Bodo Moeller]
9268
9269 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
9270 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
9271 which was free.
9272 [Steve Henson]
9273
9274 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
9275 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
9276 [Bodo Moeller]
9277
9278 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
9279 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
9280 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
9281 [Bodo Moeller]
9282
9283 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
9284 number generation fails.
9285 [Bodo Moeller]
9286
9287 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
9288 [Bodo Moeller]
9289
9290 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
9291 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
9292
9293 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
9294 [Ulf Möller]
9295
9296 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
9297 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
9298
9299 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
9300 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
9301
9302 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
9303
9304 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
9305 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
9306 [Steve Henson]
9307
9308 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
9309 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
9310
9311 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
9312 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
9313 [Ulf Möller]
9314
9315 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
9316 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
9317 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
9318 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
9319 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
9320 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
9321
9322 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
9323 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
9324 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
9325 for example.
9326 [Steve Henson]
9327
9328 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
9329 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
9330 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
9331 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
9332 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
9333 counter, some don't.)
9334 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
9335 counters or duplicate objects.
9336 [Steve Henson]
9337
9338 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
9339 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
9340 [Steve Henson]
9341
9342 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
9343 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
9344 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
9345
9346 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
9347 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
9348 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
9349 or -rand.
9350 [Ulf Möller]
9351
9352 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
9353 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
9354 [Steve Henson]
9355
9356 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
9357 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
9358 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
9359 cipher list.
9360 [Steve Henson]
9361
9362 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
9363 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
9364 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
9365 [Steve Henson]
9366
9367 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
9368 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
9369 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
9370 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
9371 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
9372 should work without changes.
9373 [Richard Levitte]
9374
9375 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
9376 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
9377 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
9378 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
9379 must be defined. E.g.,
9380 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
9381 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
9382 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
9383 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
9384
9385 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
9386 record layer.
9387 [Bodo Moeller]
9388
9389 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
9390 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
9391 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
9392 [Steve Henson]
9393
9394 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
9395 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
9396 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
9397 request header lines. Some software needs this.
9398 [Steve Henson]
9399
9400 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
9401 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
9402 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
9403 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
9404 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
9405 is prompted for as usual.
9406 [Steve Henson]
9407
9408 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
9409 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
9410 autodetect the card and use it if present.
9411 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
9412
9413 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
9414 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
9415 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
9416 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
9417 [Steve Henson]
9418
9419 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
9420 [Andy Polyakov]
9421
9422 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
9423 of seed file.
9424 [Steve Henson]
9425
9426 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
9427 [Bodo Moeller]
9428
9429 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
9430 [Steve Henson]
9431
9432 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
9433 bits.
9434 [Ulf Möller]
9435
9436 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
9437 [Ulf Möller]
9438
9439 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
9440 [Andy Polyakov]
9441
9442 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
9443 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
9444 [Ulf Möller]
9445
9446 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
9447 options to produce them.
9448 [Steve Henson]
9449
9450 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
9451 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
9452 [Ulf Möller]
9453
9454 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
9455 for p == 0.
9456 [Ulf Möller]
9457
9458 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
9459 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
9460 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
9461 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
9462 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
9463 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
9464 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
9465 [Steve Henson]
9466
9467 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
9468 [Steve Henson]
9469
9470 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
9471 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
9472 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
9473 [Bodo Moeller]
9474
9475 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
9476 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
9477
9478 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
9479 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
9480 [Ulf Möller]
9481
9482 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
9483 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
9484 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
9485 has already seen).
9486 [Bodo Moeller]
9487
9488 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
9489 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
9490
9491 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
9492 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
9493 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
9494 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
9495 generation becomes much faster.
9496
9497 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
9498 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
9499 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
9500 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
9501 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
9502 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
9503 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
9504 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
9505 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
9506 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
9507 [Bodo Moeller]
9508
9509 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
9510 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
9511 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
9512 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
9513 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
9514 trial division stage.
9515 [Bodo Moeller]
9516
9517 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
9518 as ASN1_TIME.
9519 [Steve Henson]
9520
9521 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
9522 [Steve Henson]
9523
9524 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
9525 [Ulf Möller]
9526
9527 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
9528 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
9529 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
9530 the comments.
9531 [Ulf Möller]
9532
9533 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
9534 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
9535 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
9536 [Bodo Moeller]
9537
9538 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
9539 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
9540 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
9541 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9542
9543 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
9544 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
9545 [Steve Henson]
9546
9547 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
9548 [Ulf Möller]
9549
9550 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
9551 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
9552 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
9553 Rabin-Miller iterations.
9554 [Ulf Möller]
9555
9556 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
9557 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
9558 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
9559 [Ulf Möller]
9560
9561 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
9562 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
9563 (instead of parameters) in future.
9564 [Steve Henson]
9565
9566 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
9567 when a new cipher list is set.
9568 [Steve Henson]
9569
9570 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
9571 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
9572 wrong.
9573
9574 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
9575 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
9576 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
9577
9578 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
9579 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
9580 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
9581 an error is flagged.
9582
9583 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
9584 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
9585 the readability was also increased :-)
9586 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9587
9588 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
9589 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
9590 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
9591 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
9592 as the root CA.
9593 [Steve Henson]
9594
9595 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
9596 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
9597 [Steve Henson]
9598
9599 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
9600 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
9601 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
9602 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
9603 instead.
9604
9605 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
9606 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
9607 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
9608 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
9609 because they handle more complex structures.)
9610 [Steve Henson]
9611
9612 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
9613 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
9614 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
9615 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9616
9617 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
9618 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
9619 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
9620 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
9621 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
9622 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
9623 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
9624 [Ulf Möller]
9625
9626 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
9627 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
9628 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
9629 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
9630 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
9631 [Bodo Moeller]
9632
9633 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
9634 [Bodo Moeller]
9635
9636 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
9637 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
9638 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
9639 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
9640 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
9641 to use this.
9642
9643 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
9644 code.
9645 [Steve Henson]
9646
9647 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
9648 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
9649 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
9650 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
9651 [Steve Henson]
9652
9653 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
9654 [Ulf Möller]
9655
9656 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
9657 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
9658 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
9659 international characters are used.
9660
9661 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
9662 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
9663 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
9664 in ASN1 order.
9665 [Steve Henson]
9666
9667 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
9668 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
9669 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
9670 request.
9671
9672 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
9673 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
9674 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
9675 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
9676 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
9677 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
9678
9679 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
9680 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
9681 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
9682 be handled by the string table functions.
9683
9684 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
9685 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
9686 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
9687 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
9688 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
9689 types at all.
9690 [Steve Henson]
9691
9692 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
9693 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
9694 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
9695 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
9696 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
9697
9698 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
9699 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
9700 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
9701 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
9702 [Bodo Moeller]
9703
9704 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
9705 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
9706 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
9707 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
9708 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
9709 SHA1.
9710 [Andy Polyakov]
9711
9712 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
9713 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
9714 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
9715 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
9716 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
9717 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
9718 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
9719 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
9720
9721 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
9722 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
9723 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
9724 [Steve Henson]
9725
9726 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
9727 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
9728 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
9729 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
9730 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
9731 support to pkcs8 application.
9732 [Steve Henson]
9733
9734 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
9735 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
9736 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
9737 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
9738 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
9739 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
9740 [Bodo Moeller]
9741
9742 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
9743 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
9744 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
9745 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
9746 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
9747 consistency.
9748 [Bodo Moeller]
9749
9750 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
9751 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
9752 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
9753 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
9754 example.
9755 [Steve Henson]
9756
9757 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
9758 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
9759 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
9760 and any application specific purposes.
9761
9762 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
9763 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
9764 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
9765 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
9766 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
9767 if the certificate is self signed.
9768 [Steve Henson]
9769
9770 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
9771 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
9772 [Steve Henson]
9773
9774 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
9775 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
9776 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
9777 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
9778 [Steve Henson]
9779
9780 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
9781 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
9782 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
9783 Update documentation.
9784 [Steve Henson]
9785
9786 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
9787 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
9788 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
9789 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
9790 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
9791 [Steve Henson]
9792
9793 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
9794 for details.
9795 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
9796
9797 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
9798 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
9799 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
9800 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
9801 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
9802 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
9803 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
9804 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
9805 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
9806 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
9807
9808 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
9809
9810 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9811 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9812 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
9813 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
9814 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
9815
9816 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
9817 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
9818 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
9819 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
9820 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
9821 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
9822 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
9823 request additional information:
9824 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
9825 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
9826
9827 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
9828 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
9829 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
9830 options.
9831
9832 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
9833 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
9834
9835 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
9836 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
9837 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
9838
9839 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
9840 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
9841
9842 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
9843 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
9844 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
9845 algorithm.
9846 [Steve Henson]
9847
9848 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
9849 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
9850 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
9851
9852 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
9853 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
9854 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
9855 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
9856 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
9857 included in OpenSSL.
9858 [Steve Henson]
9859
9860 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
9861 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
9862 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
9863 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
9864 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
9865 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
9866 [Bodo Moeller]
9867
9868 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
9869 PKCS12 structure.
9870 [Steve Henson]
9871
9872 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
9873 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
9874 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
9875 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
9876 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
9877 structure.
9878 [Steve Henson]
9879
9880 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
9881 need initialising.
9882 [Steve Henson]
9883
9884 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
9885 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
9886 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
9887 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
9888 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
9889 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
9890 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
9891 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
9892 be maintained manually.
9893
9894 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
9895 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
9896 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
9897 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
9898 work because people forget to call this function]
9899 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
9900 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
9901 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
9902 [Steve Henson]
9903
9904 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
9905 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
9906 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
9907 should be discouraged from doing it.
9908 [Ben Laurie]
9909
9910 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
9911 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
9912 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
9913 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
9914 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
9915 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
9916 [Steve Henson]
9917
9918 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
9919 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
9920 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
9921
9922 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
9923 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
9924 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
9925
9926 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
9927 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
9928 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
9929 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
9930 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
9931 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
9932
9933 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
9934 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
9935 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
9936
9937 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
9938 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
9939 and vice versa.
9940
9941 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
9942 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
9943 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
9944 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
9945 [Steve Henson]
9946
9947 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
9948 [Steve Henson]
9949
9950 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
9951 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
9952 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
9953 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
9954 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
9955 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
9956 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
9957 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
9958 keys so we should be OK.
9959
9960 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
9961 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
9962 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
9963 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
9964 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
9965 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
9966 stay in the name of compatibility.
9967
9968 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
9969 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
9970 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
9971
9972 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
9973 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
9974 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
9975 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
9976 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
9977 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
9978 supplied key).
9979 [Steve Henson]
9980
9981 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
9982 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
9983 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
9984 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
9985 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
9986 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
9987 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
9988 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
9989 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
9990 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
9991 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
9992 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
9993 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
9994 [Steve Henson]
9995
9996 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
9997 [Steve Henson]
9998
9999 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
10000 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
10001 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
10002 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
10003 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
10004 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
10005 single self signed certificate. This means that:
10006 openssl verify ss.pem
10007 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
10008 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
10009 is OK.
10010 [Steve Henson]
10011
10012 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
10013 (and add it to external session representation).
10014 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
10015 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
10016 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
10017 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
10018 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
10019 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
10020 security holes.
10021 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
10022
10023 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
10024 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
10025 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
10026 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
10027
10028 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
10029 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
10030 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
10031 [Steve Henson]
10032
10033 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
10034 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
10035 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
10036 code.
10037 [Steve Henson]
10038
10039 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
10040 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
10041 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
10042
10043 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
10044 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
10045 certificate auxiliary information.
10046 [Steve Henson]
10047
10048 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
10049 the 'enc' command.
10050 [Steve Henson]
10051
10052 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
10053 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
10054 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
10055 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
10056 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
10057 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
10058 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
10059 [Richard Levitte]
10060
10061 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
10062 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
10063 [Steve Henson]
10064
10065 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
10066 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
10067 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
10068 manpages and fix a few bugs.
10069 [Steve Henson]
10070
10071 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
10072 [Steve Henson]
10073
10074 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
10075 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
10076 [Steve Henson]
10077
10078 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
10079 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
10080 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
10081 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
10082 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
10083 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
10084 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
10085 using the new 'x509' options.
10086
10087 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
10088 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
10089 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
10090 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
10091 for all purposes.
10092 [Steve Henson]
10093
10094 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
10095 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
10096 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
10097 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
10098 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
10099 [Mark Cox]
10100
10101 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
10102 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
10103 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
10104 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
10105 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
10106 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
10107 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
10108 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
10109 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
10110 the key length and effective key length are equal.
10111 [Steve Henson]
10112
10113 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
10114 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
10115 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
10116 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
10117 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
10118 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
10119 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
10120 [Steve Henson]
10121
10122 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
10123 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
10124 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
10125 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
10126 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
10127 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
10128 openssl.cnf for more info.
10129 [Steve Henson]
10130
10131 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
10132 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
10133 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
10134 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
10135 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
10136 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
10137 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
10138 md should be large enough anyway.
10139 [Bodo Moeller]
10140
10141 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
10142 for handling the random seed file.
10143
10144 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
10145 ca,
10146 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
10147 s_client,
10148 s_server,
10149 x509 (when signing).
10150 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
10151 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
10152 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
10153
10154 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
10155 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
10156 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
10157 that support '-rand'.
10158 [Bodo Moeller]
10159
10160 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
10161 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
10162 [Bodo Moeller]
10163
10164 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
10165 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
10166 [Bill Perry]
10167
10168 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
10169 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
10170 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
10171 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
10172 is suitable.
10173 [Steve Henson]
10174
10175 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
10176 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
10177 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
10178 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
10179 [Steve Henson]
10180
10181 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
10182 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
10183 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
10184 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
10185 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
10186 print out all the purposes.
10187 [Steve Henson]
10188
10189 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
10190 functions.
10191 [Steve Henson]
10192
10193 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
10194 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
10195 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
10196 single function call.
10197 [Steve Henson]
10198
10199 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
10200 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
10201 [Andy Polyakov]
10202
10203 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
10204 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
10205 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
10206 [Steve Henson]
10207
10208 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
10209 when producing the local key id.
10210 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10211
10212 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
10213 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
10214 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
10215 "server.pem".
10216 [Steve Henson]
10217
10218 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
10219 a public key to be input or output. For example:
10220 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
10221 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
10222 [Steve Henson]
10223
10224 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
10225 in the message. This was handled by allowing
10226 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
10227 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
10228
10229 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
10230 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
10231 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
10232 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10233
10234 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
10235 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
10236 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
10237 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
10238 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
10239 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
10240 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
10241 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
10242 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
10243 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
10244 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
10245 trivial: move one line.
10246 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
10247
10248 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
10249 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
10250 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
10251 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
10252 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
10253 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
10254 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
10255 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
10256 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
10257 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
10258 with an event loop for example.
10259 [Steve Henson]
10260
10261 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
10262 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
10263 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
10264 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
10265 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
10266 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
10267 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
10268 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
10269 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
10270 [Steve Henson]
10271
10272 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
10273 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
10274 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
10275 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
10276 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
10277 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
10278 [Steve Henson]
10279
10280 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
10281 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
10282 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
10283 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
10284
10285 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
10286 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
10287 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
10288 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
10289 key generation.
10290 [Steve Henson]
10291
10292 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
10293 (still largely untested)
10294 [Bodo Moeller]
10295
10296 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
10297 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
10298 [Steve Henson]
10299
10300 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
10301 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
10302 [Steve Henson]
10303
10304 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
10305 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
10306 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
10307 [Bodo Moeller]
10308
10309 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
10310 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
10311 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
10312 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
10313 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
10314 [Steve Henson]
10315
10316 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
10317 [Andy Polyakov]
10318
10319 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
10320 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
10321 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
10322 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
10323 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
10324 in ca.
10325 [Steve Henson]
10326
10327 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
10328 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
10329 1.OU="Unit name 1"
10330 2.OU="Unit name 2"
10331 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
10332 [Steve Henson]
10333
10334 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
10335 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
10336 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
10337 are otherwise ignored at present.
10338 [Steve Henson]
10339
10340 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
10341 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
10342 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
10343 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
10344 copied until the next read.
10345 [Steve Henson]
10346
10347 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
10348 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
10349 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
10350 [Steve Henson]
10351
10352 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
10353 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
10354 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
10355 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
10356 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
10357 associated functions.
10358 [Steve Henson]
10359
10360 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
10361 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
10362 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
10363 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
10364 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
10365 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
10366 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
10367 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
10368 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
10369 memory BIOs.
10370 [Steve Henson]
10371
10372 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
10373 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
10374 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
10375 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
10376 [Bodo Moeller]
10377
10378 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
10379 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
10380 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
10381 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
10382 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
10383 functionality.
10384 [Steve Henson]
10385
10386 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
10387 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
10388 under Win32.
10389 [Steve Henson]
10390
10391 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
10392 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
10393 extensions to be obtained and added.
10394 [Steve Henson]
10395
10396 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
10397 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
10398 [Bodo Moeller]
10399
10400 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
10401
10402 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10403 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10404
10405 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
10406 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
10407
10408 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
10409 program.
10410 [Steve Henson]
10411
10412 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
10413 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
10414 DH parameters contain its length).
10415
10416 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
10417 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
10418 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
10419 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
10420 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
10421 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
10422 utter importance to use
10423 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
10424 or
10425 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
10426 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
10427 attacks may become possible!
10428 [Bodo Moeller]
10429
10430 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
10431 [Bodo Moeller]
10432
10433 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
10434 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
10435 [Steve Henson]
10436
10437 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
10438 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
10439 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
10440 or long name.
10441 [Steve Henson]
10442
10443 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
10444 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
10445 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
10446 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
10447 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
10448 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
10449 private key operations.
10450 [Steve Henson]
10451
10452 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
10453 [Andy Polyakov]
10454
10455 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
10456 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
10457 to
10458 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
10459 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
10460 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
10461 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
10462 the password callback is called.
10463 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
10464
10465 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
10466
10467 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
10468 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
10469 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
10470 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
10471 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
10472 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
10473 this will work.
10474
10475 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
10476 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
10477 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
10478 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
10479 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
10480 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
10481 [Bodo Moeller]
10482
10483 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
10484 [Andy Polyakov]
10485
10486 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
10487 delete an unused file.
10488 [Ulf Möller]
10489
10490 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
10491 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
10492 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
10493 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
10494 [Steve Henson]
10495
10496 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
10497 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
10498 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
10499 of an error.
10500 [Bodo Moeller]
10501
10502 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
10503 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
10504 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
10505
10506 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
10507 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
10508 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
10509 comparison" warnings.
10510 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
10511 [Steve Henson]
10512
10513 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
10514 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
10515 derived keys are printed to stderr.
10516 [Steve Henson]
10517
10518 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
10519 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
10520
10521 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
10522 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
10523
10524 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
10525 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
10526 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
10527
10528 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
10529 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
10530 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
10531 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
10532 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
10533 this bug.
10534 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
10535
10536 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
10537 The interface is as follows:
10538 Applications can use
10539 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
10540 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
10541 "off" is now the default.
10542 The library internally uses
10543 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
10544 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
10545 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
10546
10547 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
10548 even the default) are now avoided.
10549
10550 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
10551 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
10552 than just having a counter.
10553
10554 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
10555
10556 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
10557 extensions.
10558 [Bodo Moeller]
10559
10560 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
10561 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
10562 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
10563 Initial "mode" flags are:
10564
10565 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
10566 a single record has been written.
10567 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
10568 retries use the same buffer location.
10569 (But all of the contents must be
10570 copied!)
10571 [Bodo Moeller]
10572
10573 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
10574 worked.
10575
10576 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
10577 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
10578
10579 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
10580 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
10581 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
10582 [Steve Henson]
10583
10584 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
10585 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
10586 test programs.
10587 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
10588
10589 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
10590 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
10591 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
10592 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
10593 point to the end.
10594 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
10595 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
10596
10597 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
10598 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
10599 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
10600 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
10601 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
10602 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
10603 [Steve Henson]
10604
10605 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
10606 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
10607 necessary function names.
10608 [Steve Henson]
10609
10610 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
10611 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
10612 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
10613 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
10614 [Bodo Moeller]
10615
10616 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
10617 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
10618 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
10619 [Steve Henson]
10620
10621 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
10622 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
10623 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
10624 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
10625 such programs?)
10626 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
10627 need locks.
10628 [Bodo Moeller]
10629
10630 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
10631 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
10632 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
10633 [Bodo Moeller]
10634
10635 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
10636 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
10637 appropriate.
10638 [Bodo Moeller]
10639
10640 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
10641 for the encoded length.
10642 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
10643
10644 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
10645 [Steve Henson]
10646
10647 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
10648 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
10649 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
10650 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
10651 [Steve Henson]
10652
10653 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
10654 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
10655 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10656
10657 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
10658 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
10659 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
10660 unusual formatting.
10661 [Steve Henson]
10662
10663 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
10664 to use the new extension code.
10665 [Steve Henson]
10666
10667 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
10668 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
10669 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
10670 constant.
10671 [Steve Henson]
10672
10673 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
10674 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
10675 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
10676 [Bodo Moeller]
10677
10678 #if 0
10679 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
10680 [Ben Laurie]
10681 #else
10682 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
10683 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
10684 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
10685 #endif
10686
10687 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
10688 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
10689 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
10690 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
10691 [Ben Laurie]
10692
10693 *) DES library cleanups.
10694 [Ulf Möller]
10695
10696 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
10697 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
10698 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
10699 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
10700 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
10701 of v2.0.
10702 [Steve Henson]
10703
10704 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
10705 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
10706 [Bodo Moeller]
10707
10708 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
10709 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
10710 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
10711 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
10712 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
10713 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
10714 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
10715 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
10716 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
10717 [Steve Henson]
10718
10719 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
10720 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
10721 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
10722 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
10723 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
10724 value doesn't matter.
10725 [Steve Henson]
10726
10727 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
10728 support mutable.
10729 [Ben Laurie]
10730
10731 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
10732 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
10733 "linux-sparc" configuration.
10734 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
10735
10736 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
10737 [Ulf Möller]
10738
10739 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
10740 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
10741 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10742
10743 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
10744 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10745
10746 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
10747 [Ben Laurie]
10748
10749 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
10750 [Ben Laurie]
10751
10752 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
10753 [Ben Laurie]
10754
10755 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
10756 [Bodo Moeller]
10757
10758
10759 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
10760
10761 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
10762
10763 *) Updated some demos.
10764 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
10765
10766 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
10767 [Wu Zhigang]
10768
10769 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
10770 [Steve Henson]
10771
10772 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
10773 [Steve Henson]
10774
10775 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
10776 instead of using a fixed path.
10777 [Bodo Moeller]
10778
10779 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
10780 [Andy Polyakov]
10781
10782 *) Improvements for VMS support.
10783 [Richard Levitte]
10784
10785
10786 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
10787
10788 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
10789 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
10790 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10791
10792 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
10793 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
10794 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
10795 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
10796 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
10797 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
10798 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
10799 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
10800 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
10801 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
10802 [Steve Henson]
10803
10804 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
10805 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
10806 [Steve Henson]
10807
10808 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
10809 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
10810 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
10811 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
10812 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
10813
10814 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
10815 [Bodo Moeller]
10816
10817 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
10818 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
10819 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
10820 [Steve Henson]
10821
10822 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
10823 [Ben Laurie]
10824
10825 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
10826 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
10827 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
10828 key elements as negative integers.
10829 [Steve Henson]
10830
10831 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
10832 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10833
10834 *) VMS support.
10835 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
10836
10837 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
10838 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
10839 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
10840 [Steve Henson]
10841
10842 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
10843 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
10844 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
10845 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
10846 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
10847 [Bodo Moeller]
10848
10849 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
10850 [Ulf Möller]
10851
10852 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
10853 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
10854 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
10855 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10856
10857 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
10858 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
10859 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
10860
10861 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
10862 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
10863 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
10864 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
10865 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
10866 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
10867 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
10868 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
10869 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
10870
10871 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
10872 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
10873 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
10874 does not influence s as it used to.
10875
10876 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
10877 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
10878 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
10879 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
10880 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
10881 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
10882 [Bodo Moeller]
10883
10884 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
10885 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
10886 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
10887 key type.
10888 [Steve Henson]
10889
10890 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
10891 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
10892 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
10893 and 'x509').
10894 [Steve Henson]
10895
10896 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
10897 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
10898 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
10899 extension option.
10900 [Steve Henson]
10901
10902 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
10903 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
10904 [Ben Laurie]
10905
10906 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
10907 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10908
10909 *) Support Mingw32.
10910 [Ulf Möller]
10911
10912 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
10913 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10914
10915 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
10916 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10917
10918 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
10919 [Ulf Möller]
10920
10921 *) Update HPUX configuration.
10922 [Anonymous]
10923
10924 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
10925 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10926
10927 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
10928 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
10929 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
10930 DER-encoded.)
10931 [Bodo Moeller]
10932
10933 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
10934 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
10935 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
10936 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
10937 now it really counts the depth.
10938 [Bodo Moeller]
10939
10940 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
10941 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
10942 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
10943 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
10944 didn't match the private key).
10945
10946 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
10947 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
10948 connection using the SSL_CTX).
10949 [Bodo Moeller]
10950
10951 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
10952 [Ulf Möller]
10953
10954 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
10955 David Harris.
10956 [Bodo Moeller]
10957
10958 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
10959 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
10960 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
10961 [Bodo Moeller]
10962
10963 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
10964 [Bodo Moeller]
10965
10966 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
10967 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
10968 such as /usr/local/bin.
10969 [Bodo Moeller]
10970
10971 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
10972 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10973
10974 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
10975 [Ulf Möller]
10976
10977 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
10978 extension adding in x509 utility.
10979 [Steve Henson]
10980
10981 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
10982 [Ulf Möller]
10983
10984 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
10985 prototypes.
10986 [Steve Henson]
10987
10988 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
10989 [Ulf Möller]
10990
10991 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
10992 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
10993 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
10994 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
10995 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
10996 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
10997 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
10998 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
10999 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
11000 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
11001 [Steve Henson]
11002
11003 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
11004 [Bodo Moeller]
11005
11006 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
11007 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
11008 [Bodo Moeller]
11009
11010 *) Fix some race conditions.
11011 [Bodo Moeller]
11012
11013 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
11014 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
11015 [Steve Henson]
11016
11017 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
11018 [Ulf Möller]
11019
11020 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
11021 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
11022 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
11023 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
11024
11025 *) Fix lots of warnings.
11026 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11027
11028 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
11029 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
11030 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11031
11032 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
11033 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11034
11035 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
11036 [Ulf Möller]
11037
11038 *) Fix typos in error codes.
11039 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
11040
11041 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
11042 [Ulf Möller]
11043
11044 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
11045 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11046
11047 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
11048 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
11049 [Steve Henson]
11050
11051 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
11052 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
11053 [Ben Laurie]
11054
11055 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
11056 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
11057 [Steve Henson]
11058
11059 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
11060 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
11061 [Steve Henson]
11062
11063 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
11064 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
11065 [Steve Henson]
11066
11067 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
11068 support typesafe stack.
11069 [Steve Henson]
11070
11071 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
11072 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
11073
11074 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
11075 old X509V3 handling code.
11076 [Steve Henson]
11077
11078 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
11079 [Ulf Möller]
11080
11081 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
11082 [Bodo Moeller]
11083
11084 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
11085 [Ben Laurie]
11086
11087 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
11088 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
11089
11090 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
11091 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
11092 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
11093 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
11094 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
11095 [Ben Laurie]
11096
11097 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
11098 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
11099 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
11100 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
11101 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
11102
11103 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
11104 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
11105 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
11106 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11107
11108 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
11109 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
11110 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
11111 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11112
11113 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
11114 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
11115 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
11116 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
11117 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
11118 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
11119 [Bodo Moeller]
11120
11121 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
11122 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
11123 [Bodo Moeller]
11124
11125 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
11126 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
11127 [Ulf Möller]
11128
11129 *) Tweaks to Configure
11130 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
11131
11132 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
11133 yet...
11134 [Steve Henson]
11135
11136 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
11137 [Ulf Möller]
11138
11139 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
11140 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
11141 [Ulf Möller]
11142
11143 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
11144 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
11145 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
11146 [Bodo Moeller]
11147
11148 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
11149 [Bodo Moeller]
11150
11151 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
11152 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
11153 [Steve Henson]
11154
11155 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
11156 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
11157 to library startup routines.
11158 [Steve Henson]
11159
11160 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
11161 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
11162 codes along the way.
11163 [Steve Henson]
11164
11165 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
11166 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
11167 objects to objects.h
11168 [Steve Henson]
11169
11170 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
11171 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
11172 [Steve Henson]
11173
11174 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
11175 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
11176
11177 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
11178 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
11179 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
11180
11181 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
11182 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11183 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11184
11185 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
11186 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
11187 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
11188
11189
11190 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
11191
11192 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
11193 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
11194 [Ben Laurie]
11195
11196 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
11197 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
11198 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
11199 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
11200 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
11201
11202 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
11203 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
11204 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
11205 document.
11206 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11207
11208 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
11209 Malloc, Free.
11210 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
11211
11212 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
11213 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11214
11215 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
11216 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
11217 if someone would make that last step automatic.
11218 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
11219
11220 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
11221 [Ben Laurie]
11222
11223 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
11224 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
11225 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
11226 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
11227 [Steve Henson]
11228
11229 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
11230 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
11231 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
11232 [Steve Henson]
11233
11234 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
11235 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
11236 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
11237 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
11238 installed as `perl').
11239 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11240
11241 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
11242 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11243
11244 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
11245 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
11246 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
11247 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
11248 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
11249 [Steve Henson]
11250
11251 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
11252 [Ben Laurie]
11253
11254 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
11255 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
11256 is horrible: I feel ill....
11257 [Steve Henson]
11258
11259 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
11260 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
11261 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
11262 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
11263 [Steve Henson]
11264
11265 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
11266 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11267
11268 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
11269 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
11270 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
11271 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11272
11273 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
11274 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
11275 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
11276 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
11277 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
11278 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
11279 openssl_bio.xs.
11280 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11281
11282 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
11283 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
11284
11285 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
11286 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
11287
11288 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
11289 [Ben Laurie]
11290
11291 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
11292 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
11293 in CRLs.
11294 [Steve Henson]
11295
11296 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
11297 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
11298 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
11299 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
11300 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
11301 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
11302 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
11303 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
11304 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
11305 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
11306 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11307
11308 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
11309 [Ben Laurie]
11310
11311 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
11312 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
11313 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
11314 for linking it into DSOs.
11315 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11316
11317 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
11318 Fixed.
11319 [Ben Laurie]
11320
11321 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
11322 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
11323 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
11324 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
11325 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
11326 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11327
11328 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
11329 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
11330 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
11331 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
11332 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
11333 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
11334 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11335
11336 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
11337 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
11338 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
11339 encryption.
11340 [Ben Laurie]
11341
11342 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
11343 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
11344 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
11345 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
11346 [Steve Henson]
11347
11348 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
11349 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
11350 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
11351 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
11352 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
11353 field as blank.
11354 [Steve Henson]
11355
11356 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
11357 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
11358 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
11359 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
11360 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11361
11362 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
11363 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
11364 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
11365
11366 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
11367 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
11368
11369 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
11370 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
11371 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
11372 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
11373 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
11374 [Steve Henson]
11375
11376 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
11377 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
11378 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
11379 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
11380 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
11381 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
11382 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
11383 [Ben Laurie]
11384
11385 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
11386 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
11387 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
11388 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
11389 [Ben Laurie]
11390
11391 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
11392 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
11393
11394 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
11395 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
11396 [Steve Henson]
11397
11398 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
11399 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
11400 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
11401 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
11402 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
11403 (e.g. s_server).
11404 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
11405 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
11406 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
11407 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
11408 no way to reconfigure them.
11409 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
11410 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
11411 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
11412 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
11413 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
11414 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11415
11416 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
11417 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
11418 recognized by the users.
11419 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11420
11421 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
11422 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
11423 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
11424 already masked variable.
11425 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11426
11427 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
11428 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11429
11430 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
11431 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
11432 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
11433 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11434
11435 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
11436 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
11437 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11438
11439 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
11440 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
11441 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
11442 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
11443 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
11444 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
11445 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
11446 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
11447 now, too.
11448 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11449
11450 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
11451 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
11452 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11453
11454 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
11455 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
11456 config file.
11457 [Steve Henson]
11458
11459 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
11460 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
11461
11462 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
11463 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
11464 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
11465 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
11466 [Ben Laurie]
11467
11468 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
11469 [Steve Henson]
11470
11471 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
11472 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11473
11474 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
11475 [Ben Laurie]
11476
11477 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
11478 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
11479 [Steve Henson]
11480
11481 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
11482 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
11483 [Steve Henson]
11484
11485 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
11486 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
11487 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
11488 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
11489 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
11490 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
11491 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
11492 Ben Laurie]
11493
11494 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
11495 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11496
11497 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
11498 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
11499 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
11500 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
11501 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11502
11503 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
11504 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
11505 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
11506 [Steve Henson]
11507
11508 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
11509 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
11510 an example.
11511 [Steve Henson]
11512
11513 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
11514 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
11515 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11516
11517 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
11518 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
11519 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
11520 build instructions.
11521 [Steve Henson]
11522
11523 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
11524 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
11525 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
11526 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
11527 [Steve Henson]
11528
11529 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
11530 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
11531 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
11532 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
11533 [Ben Laurie]
11534
11535 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
11536 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
11537 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
11538 so it wasn't spotted.
11539 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
11540
11541 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
11542 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
11543 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
11544 vectors if you have them.
11545 [Ben Laurie]
11546
11547 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
11548 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
11549 [Ben Laurie]
11550
11551 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
11552 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
11553 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
11554 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
11555 If you do a:
11556 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
11557 it will update them.
11558 [Steve Henson]
11559
11560 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
11561 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
11562 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
11563 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
11564 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
11565 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
11566 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
11567 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11568
11569 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
11570 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
11571 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
11572 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
11573 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
11574 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
11575 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
11576 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
11577 the crypto/md/ stuff).
11578 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11579
11580 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
11581 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
11582 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
11583 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
11584 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
11585 [Steve Henson]
11586
11587 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
11588 INTEGER code.
11589 [Steve Henson]
11590
11591 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
11592 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11593
11594 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
11595 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11596
11597 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
11598 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
11599 [Ben Laurie]
11600
11601 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
11602 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
11603
11604 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
11605 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
11606
11607 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
11608 [Steve Henson]
11609
11610 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
11611 few typos.
11612 [Steve Henson]
11613
11614 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
11615 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
11616 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
11617 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11618
11619 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
11620 [Steve Henson]
11621
11622 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
11623 [Steve Henson]
11624
11625 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
11626 [Steve Henson]
11627
11628 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
11629 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
11630 [Steve Henson]
11631
11632 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
11633 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
11634 CA extensions.
11635 [Steve Henson]
11636
11637 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
11638 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
11639 [Steve Henson]
11640
11641 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
11642 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
11643 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
11644 [Steve Henson]
11645
11646 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
11647 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
11648 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
11649 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
11650 properly to be processed.
11651 [Steve Henson]
11652
11653 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
11654 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
11655 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
11656 [Ben Laurie]
11657
11658 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
11659 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
11660
11661 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
11662 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
11663 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
11664 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
11665 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
11666 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
11667 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
11668 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
11669 or delete all the .err files.
11670 [Steve Henson]
11671
11672 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
11673 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
11674 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
11675 to regenerate it if needed.
11676 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
11677 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
11678
11679 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
11680 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11681
11682 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
11683 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
11684 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
11685 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
11686 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
11687 [Steve Henson]
11688
11689 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
11690 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11691
11692 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
11693 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11694
11695 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
11696 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
11697 error, but didn't set one).
11698 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11699
11700 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
11701 [Ben Laurie]
11702
11703 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
11704 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
11705 [Steve Henson]
11706
11707 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
11708 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
11709
11710 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
11711 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
11712 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
11713 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
11714 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
11715 OID is not part of the table.
11716 [Steve Henson]
11717
11718 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
11719 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
11720 [Ben Laurie]
11721
11722 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
11723 [Ben Laurie]
11724
11725 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
11726 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
11727 was "1234").
11728 [Steve Henson]
11729
11730 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
11731 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
11732
11733 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
11734 NULL pointers.
11735 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11736
11737 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
11738 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11739
11740 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
11741 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11742
11743 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
11744 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11745
11746 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
11747 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
11748 [Ben Laurie]
11749
11750 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
11751 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
11752 [Steve Henson]
11753
11754 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
11755 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11756
11757 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
11758 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11759
11760 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
11761 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11762
11763 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
11764 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11765
11766 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
11767 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
11768 unused in the certificate verification process.
11769 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11770
11771 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
11772 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
11773 [Steve Henson]
11774
11775 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
11776 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
11777 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
11778
11779 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
11780 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
11781 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
11782 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
11783 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
11784
11785 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
11786 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
11787 [Steve Henson]
11788
11789 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
11790 [Steve Henson]
11791
11792 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
11793 [Paul Sutton]
11794
11795 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
11796 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
11797
11798 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
11799 [Ben Laurie]
11800
11801 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
11802 [Ben Laurie]
11803
11804 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
11805 [Ben Laurie]
11806
11807 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
11808 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
11809 other error libraries.
11810 [Steve Henson]
11811
11812 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
11813 [Steve Henson]
11814
11815 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
11816 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
11817 be read in.
11818 [Steve Henson]
11819
11820 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
11821 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
11822 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
11823 the new set of documentation files.
11824 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11825
11826 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
11827 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
11828 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
11829 number of arguments.
11830 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
11831
11832 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
11833 [Ben Laurie]
11834
11835 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
11836 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
11837 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11838
11839 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
11840 [Ben Laurie]
11841
11842 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
11843 nextstep
11844 ncr-scde
11845 unixware-2.0
11846 unixware-2.0-pentium
11847 sco5-cc.
11848 [Ben Laurie]
11849
11850 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
11851 before they are needed.
11852 [Ben Laurie]
11853
11854 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
11855 [Ben Laurie]
11856
11857
11858 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
11859
11860 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
11861 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
11862 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11863
11864 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
11865 [Paul Sutton]
11866
11867 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
11868 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
11869 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11870
11871 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
11872 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
11873 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
11874
11875 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
11876 when "ssleay" is still not found.
11877 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11878
11879 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
11880 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
11881
11882 *) Updated the README file.
11883 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11884
11885 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
11886 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
11887 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11888
11889 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
11890 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
11891 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11892
11893 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
11894 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
11895 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
11896 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
11897 o removed obsolete TODO file
11898 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
11899 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11900
11901 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
11902 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
11903 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
11904 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
11905 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
11906 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
11907 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11908
11909 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
11910 [Mark J. Cox]
11911
11912 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
11913 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
11914 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
11915 summer 1998.
11916 [The OpenSSL Project]
11917
11918
11919 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
11920
11921 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
11922 [Eric A. Young]
11923
11924 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
11925 [Eric A. Young]
11926
11927 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
11928 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
11929 [Eric A. Young]
11930
11931 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
11932 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
11933 available).
