5 Changes between 0.9.8k and 1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
8 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
9 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
10 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
11 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
12 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
13 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
14 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
15 [Steve Henson]
16
17 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
18 OPENSSL_asc2uni the original names were too generic and cause name
19 clashes on Netware.
20 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
21
22 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
23 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
24
25 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
26 be used on C++.
27 [Steve Henson]
28
29 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
30 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
31 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
32 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
33 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
34 attempting to work them out.
35 [Steve Henson]
36
37 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
38 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
39 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
40 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
41 [Steve Henson]
42
43 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
44 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
45 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
46 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
47 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
48 [Steve Henson]
49
50 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
51 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
52 you can do:
53
54 openssl sha256 foo
55
56 as well as:
57
58 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
59
60 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
61
62 [Steve Henson]
63
64 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
65 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
66
67 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
68 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
69
70 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
71 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
72 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
73 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
74 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
77 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
78 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
79 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
80 [Steve Henson]
81
82 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
83 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
84 [Steve Henson]
85
86 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
87 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
88
89 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
90 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
91 [Steve Henson]
92
93 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
94 [Ben Laurie]
95
96 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
97 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
98 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
99 CONF_VALUE.
100 [Ben Laurie]
101
102 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
103 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
104 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
105 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
106 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
107 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
108 [Steve Henson]
109
110 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
111 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
112
113 This work was sponsored by Google.
114 [Steve Henson]
115
116 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
117 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
118 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
119 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
120 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
121 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
122 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
123 default.
124
125 This work was sponsored by Google.
126 [Steve Henson]
127
128 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
129
130 This work was sponsored by Google.
131 [Steve Henson]
132
133 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
134 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
135 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
136 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
137
138 This work was sponsored by Google.
139 [Steve Henson]
140
141 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
142 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
143 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
144 CRL functionality in future.
145
146 This work was sponsored by Google.
147 [Steve Henson]
148
149 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
150
151 This work was sponsored by Google.
152 [Steve Henson]
153
154 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
155 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
156
157 This work was sponsored by Google.
158 [Steve Henson]
159
160 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
161 and URI types are currently supported.
162
163 This work was sponsored by Google.
164 [Steve Henson]
165
166 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
167 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
168 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
169 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
170 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
171 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
172 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
173 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
174
175 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
176 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
177 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
178
179 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
180 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
181 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
182 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
183
184 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
185 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
186 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
187 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
188 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
189 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
190 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
191 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
192 of &errno.)
193 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
194
195 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
196 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
197 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
198
199 This work was sponsored by Google.
200 [Steve Henson]
201
202 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
203 [Ben Laurie]
204
205 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
206 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
207 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
208 [Ben Laurie]
209
210 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
211 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
212 [Nick Mathewson]
213
214 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
215 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
216 [Ben Laurie]
217
218 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
219 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
220 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
221 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
222 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
223 content types and variants.
224 [Steve Henson]
225
226 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
227 [Steve Henson]
228
229 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
230 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
231 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
232 files from the associated perl scripts.
233 [Steve Henson]
234
235 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
236 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
237 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
238
239 *) s390x assembler pack.
240 [Andy Polyakov]
241
242 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
243 "family."
244 [Andy Polyakov]
245
246 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
247 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
248 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
249 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
250 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
251 to use. For example, specify an option
252
253 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
254
255 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
256 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
257 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
258 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
259 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
260 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
261
262 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
263 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
264 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
265 return non-zero for success.
266
267 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
268 by using
269
270 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
271 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
272
273 where
274
275 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
276 void *arg;
277
278 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
279 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
280 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
281 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
282 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
283 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
284 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
285 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
286 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
287
288 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
289 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
290 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
291 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
292 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
293 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
294
295 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
296 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
297 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
298 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
299 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
300 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
301
302 [Bodo Moeller]
303
304 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
305 MAC.
306
307 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
308
309 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
310 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
311 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
312 supported.
313
314 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
315 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
316 SSL_SESSION.
317
318 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
319 protection in servers so again support should be possible
320 with no application modification.
321
322 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
323 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
324
325 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
326 or server extensions to be examined.
327
328 This work was sponsored by Google.
329 [Steve Henson]
330
331 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
332 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
333 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
334
335 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
336 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
337 ciphersuite support.
338 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
339
340 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
341 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
342 to output in BER and PEM format.
343 [Steve Henson]
344
345 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
346 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
347 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
348 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
349 -macopt options to dgst utility.
350 [Steve Henson]
351
352 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
353 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
354 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
355 utility.
356 [Steve Henson]
357
358 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
359 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
360 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
361 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
362 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
363 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
364 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
365 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
366 enabled again.
367
368 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
369 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
370 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
371 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
372
373 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
374 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
375 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
376 the default order.
377 [Bodo Moeller]
378
379 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
380 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
381 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
382 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
383 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
384 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
385 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
386 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
387 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
388
389 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
390 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
391 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
392 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
393 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
394 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
395 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
396 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
397 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
398 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
399 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
400 kinds of kludges.
401
402 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
403 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
404 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
405
406 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
407 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
408 "CAMELLIA256".
409 [Bodo Moeller]
410
411 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
412 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
413 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
414 [Nils Larsch]
415
416 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
417 it yet and it is largely untested.
418 [Steve Henson]
419
420 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
421 [Nils Larsch]
422
423 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
424 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
425 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
429 [Andy Polyakov]
430
431 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
432 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
433 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
434 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
435 [Steve Henson]
436
437 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
438 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
439 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
440 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
441 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
442 [Steve Henson]
443
444 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
445 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
446 [Cryptocom]
447
448 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
449 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
450 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
451 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
452 [Steve Henson]
453
454 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
455 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
456 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
457 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
458 [Steve Henson]
459
460 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
461 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
462 [Steve Henson]
463
464 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
465 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
466 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
467 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
468 [Steve Henson]
469
470 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
471 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
472 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
473 [Steve Henson]
474
475 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
476 utility.
477 [Steve Henson]
478
479 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
480 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
481 [Steve Henson]
482
483 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
484 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
485 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
486 if necessary.
487 [Steve Henson]
488
489 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
490 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
491 to free up any added signature OIDs.
492 [Steve Henson]
493
494 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
495 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
496 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
497 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
498 [Steve Henson]
499
500 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
501 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
502 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
503 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
504 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
505 the array representation useful in a more general context.
506 [Douglas Stebila]
507
508 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
509 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
510 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
511 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
512 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
513
514 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
515 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
516 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
517 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
518 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
519 protocol).
520
521 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
522 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
523 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
524 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
525
526 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
527 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
528 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
529 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
530 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
531
532 aECDH - ECDH cert
533 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
534 ECDSA - ECDSA cert

537 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
538
539 [Bodo Moeller]
540
541 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
542 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
543 [Steve Henson]
544
545 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
546 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
547 [Steve Henson]
548
549 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
550 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
551 functional reference processing.
552 [Steve Henson]
553
554 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
555 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
556 process.
557 [Steve Henson]
558
559 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
560 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
561 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
562 [Steve Henson]
563
564 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
565 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
566 application to support multiple signers.
567 [Steve Henson]
568
569 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
570 digest MAC.
571 [Steve Henson]
572
573 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
574 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
575 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
576 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
577 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
578 [Steve Henson]
579
580 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
581 new API.
582 [Steve Henson]
583
584 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
585 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
586 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
587 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
588 a no op.
589 [Steve Henson]
590
591 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
592 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
593 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
594 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
595 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
596 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
597 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
598 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
599 [Steve Henson]
600
601 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
602 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
603 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
604 between digests and public key types.
605 [Steve Henson]
606
607 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
608 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
609 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
610 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
611 [Steve Henson]
612
613 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
614 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
615 key ASN1 method.
616 [Steve Henson]
617
618 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
619 [Steve Henson]
620
621 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
622 pkeyutl.
623 [Steve Henson]
624
625 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
626 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
627 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
628 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
629 pkey, genpkey.
630 [Steve Henson]
631
632 *) BeOS support.
633 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
634
635 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
636 manual pages.
637 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
638
639 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
640 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
641 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
642 functionality for RSA.
643 [Steve Henson]
644
645 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
646 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
647 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
648 [Steve Henson]
649
650 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
651 key API, doesn't do much yet.
652 [Steve Henson]
653
654 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
655 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
656 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
657 [Steve Henson]
658
659 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
660 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
661 [Douglas Stebila]
662
663 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
664 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
665 [Steve Henson]
666
667 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
668 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
669 type.
670 [Steve Henson]
671
672 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
673 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
674 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
675 structure.
676 [Steve Henson]
677
678 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
679 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
680 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
681 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
682 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
683 of public and private key structures.
684 [Steve Henson]
685
686 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
687 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
688 [Douglas Stebila]
689
690 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
691 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
692 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
693
694 New ciphersuites:
695 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
696 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
697
698 New functions:
699 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
700 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
701 SSL_get_psk_identity
702 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
703
704 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
705
706 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
707 and response verification functionality.
708 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
709
710 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
711 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
712 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
713 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
714 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
715 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
716 server_name extension.
717
718 New functions (subject to change):
719
720 SSL_get_servername()
721 SSL_get_servername_type()
722 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
723
724 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
725
726 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
727 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
728 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
729 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
730 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
731
732 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
733
734 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
735 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
736 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
737 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
738 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
739 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
740 option.
741
742 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
743
744 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
745 [Andy Polyakov]
746
747 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
748 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
749 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
750 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
751 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
752 [Andy Polyakov]
753
754 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
755 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
756 macro.
757 [Bodo Moeller]
758
759 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
760 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
761 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
762 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
763 [Andy Polyakov]
764
765 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
766 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
767 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
768 using the maximum available value.
769 [Steve Henson]
770
771 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
772 in addition to the text details.
773 [Bodo Moeller]
774
775 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
776 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
777 handle several customised structures at all.
778 [Steve Henson]
779
780 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
781 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
782 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
783 [Steve Henson]
784
785 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
786 [Steve Henson]
787
788 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
789 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
790 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
791 [Steve Henson]
792
793 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
794 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
795 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
796 [Nils Larsch]
797
798 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
799 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
800 all fields.
801 [Steve Henson]
802
803 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
804 [Steve Henson]
805
806 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
807 [NTT]
808
809 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [xx XXX xxxx]
810
811 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert():
812 it just wastes time without adding any security. As a useful side effect
813 self signed root CAs with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
814 [Steve Henson]
815
816 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
817 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
818 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
819 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
820 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
821 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
822 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
823 buffered.
824 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
825
826 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
827 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
828 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
829 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
830 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
831 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
832 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
833
834 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
835 parent structure is freed.
836 [Daniel Mentz]
837
838 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
839 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
840
841 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
842 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
843
844 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
845
846 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
847 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
848 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
849 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
850
851 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
852 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
853 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
854 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
855
856 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
857 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
858 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
859 [Steve Henson]
860
861 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
862 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
863 level.
864 [Steve Henson]
865
866 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
867 to handle some structures.
868 [Steve Henson]
869
870 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
871 for a '\n'
872 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
873
874 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
875 [Matthieu Herrb]
876
877 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
878 [Steve Henson]
879
880 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
881 [Steve Henson]
882
883 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
884 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
885 chosen compiler.
886 [Ben Laurie]
887
888 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
889
890 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
891 (CVE-2008-5077).
892 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
893
894 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
895 [Ben Laurie]
896
897 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
898 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
899 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
900 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
901
902 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
903 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
904
905 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
906 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
907 [Bodo Moeller]
908
909 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
910 s_client and s_server.
911 [Ben Laurie]
912
913 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
914 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
915
916 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
917 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
918
919 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
920 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
921 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
922 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
923 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
924 [Bodo Moeller]
925
926 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
927
928 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
929 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
930 [Nagendra Modadugu]
931
932 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
933 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
934 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
935 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
936
937 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
938 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
939
940 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
941
942 *) Various precautionary measures:
943
944 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
945
946 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
947 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
948 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
949
950 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
951 outside the expected range.
952
953 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
954 builds.
955
956 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
957
958 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
959 the load fails. Useful for distros.
960 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
961
962 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
963 [Steve Henson]
964
965 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
966 [Huang Ying]
967
968 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
969
970 This work was sponsored by Logica.
971 [Steve Henson]
972
973 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
974 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
975 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
976
977 This work was sponsored by Logica.
978 [Steve Henson]
979
980 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
981 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
982 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
983 files.
984 [Steve Henson]
985
986 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
987
988 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
989 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
990 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
991 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
992
993 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
994 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
995 [Joe Orton]
996
997 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
998
999 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
1000 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
1001 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
1002
1003 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
1004
1005 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
1006 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
1007 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
1008 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
1009 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1010
1011 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
1012 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
1013 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
1014 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
1015 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
1016 invalid read after the end of 'db').
1017 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
1018
1019 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
1020
1021 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
1022 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
1023 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
1024 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
1025 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
1026
1027 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
1028 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
1029
1030 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
1031 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
1032 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
1033 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
1034 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
1035
1036 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
1037
1038 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
1039 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
1040 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
1041 sets may exist with different names.
1042 [Steve Henson]
1043
1044 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
1045 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
1046 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
1047 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
1048 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
1049 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
1050 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
1051 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
1052 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
1053 implementation.
1054 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
1055
1056 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
1057 implemention in the following ways:
1058
1059 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
1060 hard coded.
1061
1062 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
1063 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
1064 ignored for embedded content.
1065
1066 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
1067 with the enable-cms configuration option.
1068 [Steve Henson]
1069
1070 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
1071 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
1072 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
1073 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
1074
1075 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
1076 uncompresses any data passed through it.
1077 [Steve Henson]
1078
1079 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
1080 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
1081 [Steve Henson]
1082
1083 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
1084 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
1085 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
1086 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
1087 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
1088 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
1089 data.
1090 [Steve Henson]
1091
1092 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
1093 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
1094 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1095
1096 *) Netware support:
1097
1098 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
1099 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
1100 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
1101 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
1102 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
1103 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
1104 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
1105 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
1106 platform
1107 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
1108 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
1109 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
1110 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
1111 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
1112 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
1113 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
1114
1115 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
1116 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
1117 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
1118 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
1119 to s_client and s_server.
1120 [Steve Henson]
1121
1122 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
1123
1124 *) Fix various bugs:
1125 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
1126 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
1127 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
1128 + Fix ia64 assembler code
1129 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1130
1131 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
1132
1133 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
1134 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
1135 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
1136 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
1137 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
1138 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
1139 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
1140 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
1141 [Andy Polyakov]
1142
1143 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
1144 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
1145 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
1146 Steve Henson]
1147
1148 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1149 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1150 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1151 supported.
1152
1153 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1154 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1155 SSL_SESSION.
1156
1157 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1158 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1159 with no application modification.
1160
1161 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1162 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1163
1164 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1165 or server extensions to be examined.
1166
1167 This work was sponsored by Google.
1168 [Steve Henson]
1169
1170 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1171 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1172 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1173 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1174 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1175 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1176 server_name extension.
1177
1178 New functions (subject to change):
1179
1180 SSL_get_servername()
1181 SSL_get_servername_type()
1182 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1183
1184 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1185
1186 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1187 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1188 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1189 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1190 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1191
1192 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1193
1194 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1195 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1196 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1197 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1198 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1199 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1200 option.
1201
1202 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
1203
1204 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
1205 [Steve Henson]
1206
1207 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
1208 [Andy Polyakov]
1209
1210 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
1211 (which previously caused an internal error).
1212 [Bodo Moeller]
1213
1214 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
1215 [Ben Laurie]
1216
1217 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
1218 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
1219
1220 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
1221 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
1222 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
1223
1224 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
1225 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
1226 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
1227 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
1228
1229 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
1230 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
1231 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
1232 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
1233
1234 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
1235 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
1236 information. For detailed background information, see
1237 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
1238 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
1239 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
1240 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
1241 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
1242 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
1243 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
1244 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
1245 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
1246 remove a conditional branch.
1247
1248 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
1249 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
1250 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
1251 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
1252 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
1253 remains as a deprecated alias.
1254
1255 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
1256 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
1257 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
1258 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
1259
1260 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
1261 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
1262 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
1263 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
1264 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
1265 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
1266 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
1267 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
1268
1269 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
1270
1271 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
1272 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
1273 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
1274 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
1275 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
1276 with applications using a single external cache for quite
1277 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
1278 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
1279 in a different context.
1280 [Bodo Moeller]
1281
1282 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
1283 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
1284 authentication-only ciphersuites.
1285 [Bodo Moeller]
1286
1287 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
1288 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
1289 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
1290
1291 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
1292
1293 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
1294 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
1295 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
1296 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
1297 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
1298 [Victor Duchovni]
1299
1300 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
1301 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
1302 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
1303 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
1304 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
1305 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
1306 [Bodo Moeller]
1307
1308 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
1309 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
1310 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
1311 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
1312 message has informed the client about his choice.)
1313 [Bodo Moeller]
1314
1315 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
1316 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
1317
1318 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
1319 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
1320 Improve header file function name parsing.
1321 [Steve Henson]
1322
1323 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
1324 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
1325 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
1326
1327 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
1328
1329 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
1330 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
1331 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1332
1333 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
1334 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
1335
1336 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
1337 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1338
1339 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
1340 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
1341 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1342
1343 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
1344 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
1345 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
1346 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
1347 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
1348 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
1349 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
1350 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
1351 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
1352
1353 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
1354 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
1355 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
1356 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
1357 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
1358
1359 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
1360 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
1361 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
1362 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
1363 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
1364 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
1365 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
1366 multiple values to extend the available space.
1367
1368 [Bodo Moeller]
1369
1370 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
1371
1372 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
1373 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
1374
1375 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
1376 [Ben Laurie]
1377
1378 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
1379 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
1380 undesirable limitations.
1381 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
1382
1383 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
1384 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
1385 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
1386 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
1387 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
1388 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
1389 to avoid potential handshake problems.
1390 [Bodo Moeller]
1391
1392 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
1393
1394 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
1395 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
1396 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
1397
1398 The latter two were purportedly from
1399 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
1400 appear there.
1401
1402 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
1403 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
1404 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
1405 [Bodo Moeller]
1406
1407 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
1408 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
1409 [Bodo Moeller]
1410
1411 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
1412 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
1413 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
1414 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
1415
1416 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
1417 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
1418 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
1419 [NTT]
1420
1421 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
1422 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
1423 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
1424 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
1425 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
1426 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
1427 [Steve Henson]
1428
1429 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
1430
1431 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
1432 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
1433 [Steve Henson]
1434
1435 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
1436 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
1437
1438 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1439 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
1440 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
1441 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
1442 [Douglas Stebila]
1443
1444 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
1445 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
1446 [Steve Henson]
1447
1448 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
1449 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
1450 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
1451 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
1452 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
1453 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
1454 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
1455 can't be loaded.
1456 [Steve Henson]
1457
1458 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
1459 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
1460 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
1461 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
1462 [Steve Henson]
1463
1464 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
1465 under VC++ build system.
1466 [Steve Henson]
1467
1468 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
1469 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
1470 [Richard Levitte]
1471
1472 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
1473
1474 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
1475 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
1476 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
1477 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
1478 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
1479
1480 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
1481 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
1482 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
1483
1484 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
1485 [Steve Henson]
1486
1487 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
1488 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1489 [Nils Larsch]
1490
1491 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
1492 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
1493
1494 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
1495 [Nick Mathewson]
1496
1497 *) Extended Windows CE support.
1498 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
1499
1500 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
1501 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1502 [Steve Henson]
1503
1504 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
1505 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
1506 smime utility.
1507 [Steve Henson]
1508
1509 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
1510
1511 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
1512 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
1513
1514 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
1515 [Richard Levitte]
1516
1517 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
1518 key into the same file any more.
1519 [Richard Levitte]
1520
1521 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
1522 [Andy Polyakov]
1523
1524 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
1525 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
1526
1527 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
1528 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
1529 [Richard Levitte]
1530
1531 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
1532 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
1533 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
1534 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
1535 this only applies when building 'shared'.
1536 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
1537
1538 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
1539 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
1540 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
1541 [Steve Henson]
1542
1543 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
1544 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
1545 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
1546 - add new function for parameter creation
1547 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
1548 BN_BLINDING parameters
1549 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
1550 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
1551 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
1552 threads.
1553 [Nils Larsch]
1554
1555 *) Add support for DTLS.
1556 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1557
1558 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
1559 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
1560 [Walter Goulet]
1561
1562 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
1563 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
1564 [Nils Larsch]
1565
1566 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
1567 the apps/openssl applications.
1568 [Nils Larsch]
1569
1570 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
1571 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
1572 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
1573 [Ben Laurie]
1574
1575 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
1576 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
1577
1578 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
1579 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
1580
1581 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
1582 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
1583 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
1584 avoid this algorithm.)
1585
1586 [Bodo Moeller]
1587
1588 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
1589 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
1590 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
1591 [Richard Levitte]
1592
1593 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
1594 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
1595 [Andy Polyakov]
1596
1597 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
1598 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
1599 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
1600 pod file:
1601
1602 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
1603
1604 The blank line is mandatory.
1605
1606 [Steve Henson]
1607
1608 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
1609 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
1610 sources.
1611 [Steve Henson]
1612
1613 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
1614 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
1615
1616 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
1617 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
1618 to support policy checking and print out.
1619 [Steve Henson]
1620
1621 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
1622 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
1623 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
1624 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
1625
1626 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
1627 [Geoff Thorpe]
1628
1629 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
1630 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
1631
1632 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
1633 implementation contributed by IBM.
1634 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
1635
1636 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
1637 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
1638 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
1639 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
1640
1641 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
1642 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
1643
1644 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
1645 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
1646 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
1647 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
1648 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
1649 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
1650 [Steve Henson]
1651
1652 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
1653 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
1654 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
1655 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
1656 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
1657 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
1658 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
1659 [Geoff Thorpe]
1660
1661 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
1662 [Steve Henson]
1663
1664 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
1665 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
1666 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
1667 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
1668 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
1669 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
1670 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
1671 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
1672 [Steve Henson]
1673
1674 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
1675 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
1676 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
1677 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
1678 [Steve Henson]
1679
1680 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
1681 syntax:
1682
1683 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
1684 [Steve Henson]
1685
1686 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
1687 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
1688 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
1689 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
1690 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
1691 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
1692 BN_CTX's "bundling".
1693 [Geoff Thorpe]
1694
1695 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
1696 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
1697 [Geoff Thorpe]
1698
1699 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
1700 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
1701 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
1702 [Steve Henson]
1703
1704 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
1705 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
1706 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
1707 below).
1708 [Geoff Thorpe]
1709
1710 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
1711 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
1712 [Richard Levitte]
1713
1714 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
1715 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
1716 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
1717 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
1718 [Geoff Thorpe]
1719
1720 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
1721 initialised value as BN_new().
1722 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
1723
1724 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
1725 [Steve Henson]
1726
1727 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
1728 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
1729 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
1730 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
1731 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
1732 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
1733 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
1734 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
1735 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
1736 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
1737 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
1738 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
1739 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
1740 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
1741 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
1742
1743 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
1744 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
1745 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
1746 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
1747 [Geoff Thorpe]
1748
1749 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
1750 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
1751 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
1752 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
1753 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
1754 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
1755 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
1756 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
1757 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
1758 [Geoff Thorpe]
1759
1760 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
1761 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
1762 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
1763 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
1764 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
1765 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
1766 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
1767 [Geoff Thorpe]
1768
1769 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
1770 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
1771 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
1772 these have been updated also.
1773 [Geoff Thorpe]
1774
1775 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
1776 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
1777 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
1778 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
1779 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
1780 functions.
1781 [Steve Henson]
1782
1783 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
1784 structure of type "other".
1785 [Steve Henson]
1786
1787 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
1788 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
1789 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
1790 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
1791 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
1792 situation in the script.
1793 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1794
1795 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1796 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
1797 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
1798 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
1799 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
1800 used as premaster secret.
1801 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1802
1803 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
1804 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
1805 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1806
1807 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
1808 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
1809
1810 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
1811 control of the error stack.
1812 [Richard Levitte]
1813
1814 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
1815 [Richard Levitte]
1816
1817 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
1818 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
1819 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
1820 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
1821 [Richard Levitte]
1822
1823 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
1824 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
1825 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
1826 [Richard Levitte]
1827
1828 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
1829 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
1830 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
1831 a memory area.
1832 [Richard Levitte]
1833
1834 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
1835 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
1836 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
1837 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
1838 [Richard Levitte]
1839
1840 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
1841 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
1842 the following flags are defined:
1843
1844 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
1845 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1846 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
1847 number.
1848
1849 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
1850 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1851 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
1852 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
1853 returns zero.
1854 [Richard Levitte]
1855
1856 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
1857 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
1858 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
1859 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
1860 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
1861 [Richard Levitte]
1862
1863 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
1864 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
1865 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
1866 [Richard Levitte]
1867
1868 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1869 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1870 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1871 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1872 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1873 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1874 [Richard Levitte]
1875
1876 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
1877 req and dirName.
1878 [Steve Henson]
1879
1880 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
1881 [Steve Henson]
1882
1883 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
1884 [Steve Henson]
1885
1886 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1887 [Steve Henson]
1888
1889 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1890 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1891 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1892 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1893 default implementation more easily.
1894 [Geoff Thorpe]
1895
1896 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1897 in config files.
1898 [Steve Henson]
1899
1900 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
1901 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
1902 [Richard Levitte]
1903
1904 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1905 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1906 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1907 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1908
1909 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
1910 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1911 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1912 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1913 [Steve Henson]
1914
1915 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1916 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1917 to do it.
1918 [Richard Levitte]
1919
1920 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
1921 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
1922 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
1923 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
1924 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
1925 scalar * generator).
1926 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1927
1928 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1929 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1930 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1931 correctly.
1932 [Steve Henson]
1933
1934 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1935 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1936 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1937 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
1938 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
1939 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
1940 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
1941 linker additions, eg;
1942 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
1943 [Geoff Thorpe]
1944
1945 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
1946 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
1947 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
1948 [Geoff Thorpe]
1949
1950 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1951 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1952 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
1953 via PR#459)
1954 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1955
1956 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
1957 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
1958 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
1959 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
1960 [Geoff Thorpe]
1961
1962 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
1963 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
1964 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
1965 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
1966 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
1967 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
1968 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
1969 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
1970 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
1971 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
1972
1973 Example for using the new callback interface:
1974
1975 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
1976 void *my_arg = ...;
1977 BN_GENCB my_cb;
1978
1979 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
1980
1981 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
1982 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
1983 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
1984 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
1985 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
1986 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
1987 */
1988
1989 [Geoff Thorpe]
1990
1991 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
1992 available to TLS with the number defined in
1993 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
1994 [Richard Levitte]
1995
1996 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
1997 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
1998
1999 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
2000 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
2001 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
2002 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
2003
2004 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
2005 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
2006
2007 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
2008 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
2009 well.
2010 [Richard Levitte]
2011
2012 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
2013 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
2014 [Richard Levitte]
2015
2016 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
2017 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
2018 and a macro that behave like
2019 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
2020
2021 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
2022 [Nils Larsch]
2023
2024 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
2025 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
2026 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
2027 if applicable.
2028 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2029
2030 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
2031 [Bodo Moeller]
2032
2033 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
2034 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
2035 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
2036 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
2037 directory engines/.
2038 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
2039 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
2040 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
2041 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
2042 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
2043 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
2044 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
2045 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
2046
2047 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
2048 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
2049 [Richard Levitte]
2050
2051 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
2052 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
2053
2054 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
2055 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
2056 files while avoiding the low level API.
2057
2058 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
2059 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
2060 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
2061 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
2062
2063 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
2064 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
2065 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
2066 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
2067 instead of the low level API.
2068 [Steve Henson]
2069
2070 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
2071 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
2072 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
2073 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
2074 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
2075 PKCS#7 code.
2076
2077 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
2078 down to the template encoder.
2079 [Steve Henson]
2080
2081 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
2082 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
2083 [Bodo Moeller]
2084
2085 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
2086 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
2087 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
2088 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2089
2090 *) Add ECDH engine support.
2091 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2092
2093 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
2094 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2095
2096 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
2097 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
2098 [Bodo Moeller]
2099
2100 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
2101 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
2102 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
2103 [Bodo Moeller]
2104
2105 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
2106 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
2107
2108 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2109 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2110
2111 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
2112 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
2113 New EC_METHOD:
2114
2115 EC_GF2m_simple_method
2116
2117 New API functions:
2118
2119 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
2120 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
2121 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
2122 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
2123 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
2124 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
2125
2126 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
2127 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
2128 enable it).
2129
2130 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
2131 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
2132 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
2133 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
2134 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
2135 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
2136 various internal method names.)
2137
2138 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
2139 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
2140
2141 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2142 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2143
2144 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
2145 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
2146
2147 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
2148 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
2149 methods are undefined.
2150
2151 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2152 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2153
2154 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
2155 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
2156 length of the modulus.
2157
2158 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2159 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2160
2161 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
2162 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
2163
2164 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2165 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2166
2167 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
2168 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
2169 used) in the following functions [macros]:
2170
2171 BN_GF2m_add
2172 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
2173 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
2174 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
2175 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
2176 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
2177 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
2178 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
2179 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
2180 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
2181
2182 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
2183 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
2184
2185 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
2186 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
2187 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
2188 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
2189 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
2190 where
2191 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
2192 This applies to the following functions:
2193
2194 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
2195 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
2196 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
2197 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
2198 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
2199 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
2200 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
2201 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
2202 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
2203 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
2204
2205 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
2206
2207 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
2208 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
2209
2210 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
2211
2212 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
2213 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
2214 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
2215 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
2216 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
2217
2218 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2219 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2220
2221 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
2222 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
2223 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
2224
2225 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
2226 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
2227
2228 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
2229 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
2230 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
2231 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
2232 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2233
2234 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
2235 functions
2236 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
2237 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
2238 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
2239 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
2240 These control ASN1 encoding details:
2241 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
2242 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
2243 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
2244 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
2245 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
2246 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
2247 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
2248
2249 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
2250 functions
2251 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
2252 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
2253 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
2254 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
2255 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2256
2257 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
2258 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
2259 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
2260 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2261
2262 *) Add functions
2263 EC_POINT_point2bn()
2264 EC_POINT_bn2point()
2265 EC_POINT_point2hex()
2266 EC_POINT_hex2point()
2267 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
2268 EC_POINT_oct2point().
2269 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2270
2271 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
2272 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
2273 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
2274 EC_GROUP_get_order()
2275 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
2276 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
2277 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
2278 adding different types of curves.
2279 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
2280
2281 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
2282 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
2283 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
2284 [Bodo Moeller]
2285
2286 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
2287 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
2288
2289 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
2290 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
2291 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
2292 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2293
2294 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
2295
2296 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
2297 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
2298
2299 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
2300 library. Most notably,
2301 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
2302 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
2303 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
2304 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
2305 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
2306 extracted before the specific public key;
2307 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
2308 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2309
2310 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
2311 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
2312 function
2313 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
2314 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
2315 EC_get_builtin_curves().
2316 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
2317 accessed via
2318 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
2319 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
2320 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
2321
2322 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
2323 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
2324 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
2325 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
2326 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
2327 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
2328 differing sizes.
2329 [Richard Levitte]
2330
2331 Changes between 0.9.7m and 0.9.7n [xx XXX xxxx]
2332
2333 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2334 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2335 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2336 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2337 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2338 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2339 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2340 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2341 in a different context.
2342 [Bodo Moeller]
2343
2344 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
2345
2346 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
2347 sensitive data.
2348 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
2349
2350 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2351 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2352 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2353 [Bodo Moeller]
2354
2355 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
2356 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2357 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
2358 [Victor Duchovni]
2359
2360 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
2361 [Steve Henson]
2362
2363 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
2364 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
2365 [Steve Henson]
2366
2367 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
2368 run algorithm test programs.
2369 [Steve Henson]
2370
2371 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
2372 [Steve Henson]
2373
2374 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2375 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2376 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2377 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2378 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2379 [Bodo Moeller]
2380
2381 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2382 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2383 [Steve Henson]
2384
2385 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
2386
2387 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2388 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2389 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2390
2391 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2392 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2393
2394 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2395 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2396
2397 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2398 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2399 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2400
2401 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
2402 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
2403 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
2404 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
2405 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
2406 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
2407 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
2408 [Bodo Moeller]
2409
2410 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
2411
2412 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2413 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2414
2415 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2416 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2417 undesirable limitations.
2418 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2419
2420 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2421
2422 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2423 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2424 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2425
2426 The latter two were purportedly from
2427 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2428 appear there.
2429
2430 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
2431 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2432 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2433 [Bodo Moeller]
2434
2435 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2436 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2437 [Bodo Moeller]
2438
2439 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
2440
2441 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
2442 module in FIPS mode.
2443 [Steve Henson]
2444
2445 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
2446 [Steve Henson]
2447
2448 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
2449 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
2450 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
2451 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
2452 [Steve Henson]
2453
2454 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
2455
2456 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
2457 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
2458 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
2459 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
2460 the difference induced by this change.
2461 [Andy Polyakov]
2462
2463 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
2464
2465 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2466 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2467 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2468 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2469 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2470
2471 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2472 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2473 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2474
2475 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
2476 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
2477 [Steve Henson]
2478
2479 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
2480 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
2481 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
2482 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
2483 biased k.)
2484 [Bodo Moeller]
2485
2486 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
2487 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
2488 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
2489 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
2490 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
2491
2492 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
2493 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
2494 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
2495 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
2496 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
2497 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
2498
2499 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
2500
2501 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
2502 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
2503 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
2504 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
2505 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
2506 [Bodo Moeller]
2507
2508 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
2509 clients need.
2510 [Steve Henson]
2511
2512 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
2513 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
2514 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
2515 [Steve Henson]
2516
2517 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
2518 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
2519 structures constant.
2520 [Steve Henson]
2521
2522 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
2523
2524 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2525 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2526
2527 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
2528 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
2529 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
2530 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
2531 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
2532 some needed definitions.
2533 [Steve Henson]
2534
2535 *) Undo Cygwin change.
2536 [Ulf Möller]
2537
2538 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
2539 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
2540 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
2541 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
2542 [Richard Levitte]
2543
2544 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
2545
2546 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
2547 server and client random values. Previously
2548 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
2549 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
2550
2551 This change has negligible security impact because:
2552
2553 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
2554 data.
2555
2556 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
2557 handshake.
2558
2559 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
2560 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
2561 values.
2562
2563 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
2564 to our attention.
2565
2566 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
2567
2568 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
2569 [Ulf Möller]
2570
2571 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
2572 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
2573 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
2574
2575 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
2576 [Steve Henson]
2577
2578 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
2579 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
2580 [Andy Polyakov]
2581
2582 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
2583 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
2584 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
2585
2586 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
2587 [Steve Henson]
2588
2589 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
2590 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
2591 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
2592 certificates.
2593 [Steve Henson]
2594
2595 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
2596 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
2597 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
2598 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
2599
2600 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
2601 has chosen to ignore this fault)
2602 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
2603 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
2604 been given)
2605 [Richard Levitte]
2606
2607 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
2608
2609 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
2610 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
2611 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
2612 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
2613 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
2614 [Steve Henson]
2615
2616 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
2617 [Steve Henson]
2618
2619 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
2620 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
2621
2622 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
2623 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
2624 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
2625 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
2626 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
2627 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
2628 rather than being initialized to 1.
2629 [Steve Henson]
2630
2631 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
2632
2633 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
2634 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
2635 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
2636
2637 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
2638 (CVE-2004-0112)
2639 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
2640
2641 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
2642 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
2643 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
2644 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
2645 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
2646 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
2647 [Richard Levitte]
2648
2649 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
2650 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
2651 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
2652 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
2653 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
2654 for these cases.
2655 [Steve Henson]
2656
2657 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
2658 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
2659 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
2660 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
2661 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
2662 [Steve Henson]
2663
2664 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
2665 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
2666 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
2667 < 0.9.7.
2668 [Steve Henson]
2669
2670 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
2671 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2672
2673 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
2674 [Steve Henson]
2675
2676 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
2677
2678 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
2679
2680 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
2681 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
2682
2683 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
2684
2685 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
2686 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
2687
2688 [Steve Henson]
2689
2690 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
2691 exiting on the first error in a request.
2692 [Steve Henson]
2693
2694 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
2695 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
2696 specifications.
2697 [Steve Henson]
2698
2699 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
2700 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
2701 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
2702 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
2703
2704 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
2705 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
2706 [Richard Levitte]
2707
2708 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
2709 blocks during encryption.
2710 [Richard Levitte]
2711
2712 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
2713 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
2714 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
2715 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
2716 certain size.
2717 [Steve Henson]
2718
2719 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
2720 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
2721 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
2722 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
2723 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
2724 parser.
2725 [Steve Henson]
2726
2727 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
2728
2729 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
2730 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
2731 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
2732 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
2733 [Bodo Moeller]
2734
2735 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
2736 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
2737 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
2738 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
2739 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2740
2741 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
2742 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
2743 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
2744 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
2745 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
2746 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
2747 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
2748 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
2749 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
2750 [Bodo Moeller]
2751
2752 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
2753 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
2754 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
2755 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
2756 [Geoff Thorpe]
2757
2758 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
2759 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
2760 [Ulf Moeller]
2761
2762 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
2763
2764 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
2765 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
2766 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
2767 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
2768 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
2769
2770 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
2771 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
2772 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
2773
2774 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
2775 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
2776 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
2777 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
2778 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
2779
2780 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
2781 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
2782 used by default when no-err is given.
2783 [Richard Levitte]
2784
2785 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
2786 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
2787
2788 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
2789 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
2790 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
2791 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
2792 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
2793
2794 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
2795 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
2796 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
2797 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
2798
2799 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
2800
2801 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
2802
2803 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
2804
2805 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
2806 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
2807 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
2808 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
2809 root is omitted).
2810 [Steve Henson]
2811
2812 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
2813 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2814
2815 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
2816 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
2817 [Steve Henson]
2818
2819 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
2820 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
2821 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
2822 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
2823 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2824
2825 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
2826 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
2827 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
2828 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
2829 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
2830 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2831 followup to PR #377.
2832 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2833
2834 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
2835 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
2836 [Andy Polyakov]
2837
2838 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
2839 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
2840 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
2841 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
2842
2843 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
2844
2845 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
2846 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
2847
2848 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
2849 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
2850 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
2851 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
2852 client and server.
2853 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2854 PR #377.
2855 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2856
2857 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
2858 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
2859 removed entirely.
2860 [Richard Levitte]
2861
2862 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
2863 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
2864 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
2865 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
2866 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
2867 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
2868 of libcrypto.
2869 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
2870 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
2871 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
2872 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
2873 have to be made anyway).
2874 [Richard Levitte]
2875
2876 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
2877 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
2878 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
2879 [Steve Henson]
2880
2881 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
2882 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
2883 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
2884 [Richard Levitte]
2885
2886 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
2887 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
2888 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2889
2890 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
2891 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
2892 edit numbers of the version.
2893 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
2894
2895 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
2896 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
2897 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
2898
2899 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
2900 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2901
2902 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2903 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2904 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2905
2906 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
2907 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2908
2909 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
2910 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2911
2912 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
2913 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2914
2915 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
2916 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2917
2918 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
2919 overflows.
2920 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2921
2922 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
2923 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
2924 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2925
2926 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
2927 representations in a platform independent manner.
2928 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2929
2930 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2931 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2932 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2933
2934 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
2935 indents.
2936 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2937
2938 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
2939 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2940
2941 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
2942 full. Fixed.
2943 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2944
2945 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
2946 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
2947 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2948
2949 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
2950 unconditionally).
2951 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2952
2953 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
2954 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2955
2956 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
2957 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2958
2959 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
2960 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2961
2962 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
2963 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2964
2965 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
2966 CBCParameter.
2967 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2968
2969 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
2970 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2971
2972 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
2973 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2974
2975 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
2976 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
2977 exploitable.
2978 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2979
2980 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
2981 the 0.9.6 release series:
2982
2983 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
2984 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
2985 (CVE-2002-0657)
2986 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2987
2988 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
2989 [Richard Levitte]
2990
2991 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
2992 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
2993
2994 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
2995 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
2996
2997 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
2998 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
2999 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
3000 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
3001
3002 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
3003 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
3004 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
3005
3006 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
3007 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
3008 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
3009 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
3010
3011 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
3012 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
3013 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
3014 some local tweaks:
3015
3016 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
3017 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
3018 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
3019 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
3020 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
3021 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
3022 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
3023 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
3024 done
3025
3026 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
3027 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
3028 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
3029 [Richard Levitte]
3030
3031 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
3032 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
3033 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
3034 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
3035 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
3036
3037 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
3038 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
3039
3040 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
3041 error in AES-CFB decryption.
3042 [Richard Levitte]
3043
3044 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
3045 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
3046 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
3047 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
3048 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
3049 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
3050 [Steve Henson]
3051
3052 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
3053 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
3054 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
3055 [Steve Henson]
3056
3057 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
3058 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
3059 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3060
3061 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
3062 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
3063 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
3064 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
3065 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
3066 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
3067 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
3068 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3069
3070 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
3071 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
3072 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
3073 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
3074 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
3075 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
3076 [Steve Henson]
3077
3078 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
3079 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
3080 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
3081 declaration has been changed from
3082 int (*cb)()
3083 into
3084 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
3085 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
3086 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
3087 has been changed into
3088 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
3089
3090 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
3091 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
3092 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
3093
3094 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
3095 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
3096
3097 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
3098 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
3099 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
3100 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
3101 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
3102 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
3103 always load it have also been added.
3104 [Steve Henson]
3105
3106 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
3107 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
3108 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
3109
3110 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
3111
3112 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
3113 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
3114 because it couldn't be used for anything.
3115
3116 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
3117 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
3118 command line option can be used to specify an
3119 alternative file.
3120 [Steve Henson]
3121
3122 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
3123 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
3124 [Steve Henson]
3125
3126 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
3127 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
3128 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
3129 [Steve Henson]
3130
3131 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
3132 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
3133 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
3134 to work with the new engine framework.
3135 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
3136
3137 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
3138 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
3139 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
3140 to work with the new engine framework.
3141 [Richard Levitte]
3142
3143 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
3144 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
3145 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
3146
3147 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
3148 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
3149
3150 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
3151 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
3152 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
3153 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
3154 FORMAT_IISSGC.
3155 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
3156
3157 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
3158 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
3159
3160 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
3161 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
3162
3163 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
3164 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
3165 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
3166 [Ben Laurie]
3167
3168 *) Add new functions
3169 ERR_peek_last_error
3170 ERR_peek_last_error_line
3171 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
3172 These are similar to
3173 ERR_peek_error
3174 ERR_peek_error_line
3175 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
3176 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
3177 still in the error queue.
3178 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
3179
3180 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
3181 like:
3182 default_algorithms = ALL
3183 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
3184 [Steve Henson]
3185
3186 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
3187 [Steve Henson]
3188
3189 *) New experimental application configuration code.
3190 [Steve Henson]
3191
3192 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
3193 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
3194 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
3195 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
3196
3197 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
3198 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
3199
3200 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
3201 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
3202
3203 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
3204 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
3205 [Bodo Moeller]
3206
3207 *) New functions/macros
3208
3209 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
3210 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
3211 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
3212 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
3213
3214 to request calling a callback function
3215
3216 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
3217 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
3218
3219 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
3220 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
3221 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
3222 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
3223 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
3224 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
3225 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
3226 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
3227 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
3228 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
3229
3230 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
3231 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
3232 [Bodo Moeller]
3233
3234 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
3235 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
3236 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
3237 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
3238 the configuration scripts.
3239
3240 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
3241 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
3242 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
3243
3244 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
3245 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
3246
3247 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
3248 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
3249 when reusing an existing buffer.
3250 [Bodo Moeller]
3251
3252 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
3253 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
3254 [Steve Henson]
3255
3256 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
3257 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
3258 [Ben Laurie]
3259
3260 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
3261 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
3262 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
3263 has the same effect.
3264 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
3265
3266 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
3267 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
3268 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
3269 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
3270 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
3271 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
3272 exception.
3273
3274 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
3275 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
3276 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
3277 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
3278
3279 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
3280 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
3281 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
3282 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
3283
3284 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
3285 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
3286 won't work.
3287
3288 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
3289 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
3290 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
3291 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
3292 default), and then completely removed.
3293 [Richard Levitte]
3294
3295 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
3296 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
3297 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
3298 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
3299 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
3300 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
3301 particular extension is supported.
3302 [Steve Henson]
3303
3304 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
3305 to retain compatibility with existing code.
3306 [Steve Henson]
3307
3308 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
3309 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
3310 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
3311 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
3312 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
3313 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
3314 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
3315 requires the destination to be valid.
3316
3317 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
3318 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
3319 [Steve Henson]
3320
3321 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
3322 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
3323 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
3324 [Bodo Moeller]
3325
3326 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
3327 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
3328
3329 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
3330 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
3331 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
3332 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
3333 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
3334 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
3335 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
3336 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
3337 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
3338 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
3339 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
3340 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
3341 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
3342 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
3343 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
3344 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
3345 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
3346 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
3347 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
3348 the new code.
3349 [Geoff Thorpe]
3350
3351 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
3352 [Steve Henson]
3353
3354 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
3355 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
3356 become part of libeay.num as well.
3357 [Richard Levitte]
3358
3359 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
3360 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
3361 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
3362 false once a handshake has been completed.
3363 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
3364 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
3365 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
3366 client has followed the request.)
3367 [Bodo Moeller]
3368
3369 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
3370 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
3371 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
3372 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
3373
3374 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
3375 more bits available for options that should not be part of
3376 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
3377 [Bodo Moeller]
3378
3379 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
3380 [Steve Henson]
3381
3382 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
3383 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
3384 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
3385 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3386
3387 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
3388 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
3389 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3390
3391 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
3392 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
3393 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
3394 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
3395 [Geoff Thorpe]
3396
3397 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
3398 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
3399 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
3400 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
3401 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
3402 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
3403 [Geoff Thorpe]
3404
3405 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
3406 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
3407 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
3408 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
3409 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
3410 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
3411 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
3412 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
3413 [Geoff Thorpe]
3414
3415 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
3416 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
3417 [Geoff Thorpe]
3418
3419 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
3420 [Ben Laurie]
3421
3422 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
3423 md_data void pointer.
3424 [Ben Laurie]
3425
3426 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
3427 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
3428 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
3429 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
3430 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
3431 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
3432 [Ben Laurie]
3433
3434 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
3435 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
3436 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
3437 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
3438 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
3439 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
3440 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
3441 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
3442 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
3443 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
3444 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
3445 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
3446 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
3447 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
3448 rather than letting it slide.
3449
3450 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
3451 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
3452 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
3453 [Geoff Thorpe]
3454
3455 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
3456 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
3457 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
3458 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
3459 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
3460 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
3461 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
3462 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
3463 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
3464 [Geoff Thorpe]
3465
3466 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
3467 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
3468 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
3469 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
3470 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
3471
3472 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
3473 [Geoff Thorpe]
3474
3475 *) Add EVP test program.
3476 [Ben Laurie]
3477
3478 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
3479 [Ben Laurie]
3480
3481 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
3482 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
3483 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
3484 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
3485 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
3486 [Steve Henson]
3487
3488 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
3489 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
3490 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
3491 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
3492 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
3493 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
3494 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
3495
3496 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
3497 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
3498 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
3499 Usage example:
3500
3501 EVP_MD_CTX md;
3502
3503 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
3504 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
3505 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
3506 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
3507 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
3508
3509 [Ben Laurie]
3510
3511 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
3512 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
3513 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
3514 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
3515 anyway): E.g.,
3516
3517 des_key_schedule ks;
3518
3519 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
3520 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
3521
3522 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
3523 [Ben Laurie]
3524
3525 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
3526 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
3527 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
3528 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
3529 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
3530 functions prevents this.
3531 [Steve Henson]
3532
3533 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
3534 [Ben Laurie]
3535
3536 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
3537 correct _ecb suffix.
3538 [Ben Laurie]
3539
3540 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
3541 revocation information is handled using the text based index
3542 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
3543 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
3544 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
3545 [Steve Henson]
3546
3547 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
3548 [Richard Levitte]
3549
3550 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
3551 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
3552 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
3553 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
3554
3555 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
3556 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
3557
3558 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
3559 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
3560 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
3561 via Richard Levitte]
3562
3563 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
3564 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
3565 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
3566 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
3567 [Geoff Thorpe]
3568
3569 *) Speed up EVP routines.
3570 Before:
3571 encrypt
3572 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
3573 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
3574 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
3575 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k

3579 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
3580 After:
3581 encrypt
3582 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
3583 decrypt
3584 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
3585 [Ben Laurie]
3586
3587 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
3588 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
3589
3590 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
3591 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
3592 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
3593 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
3594 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
3595 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
3596 [Steve Henson]
3597
3598 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
3599 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
3600 [Richard Levitte]
3601
3602 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
3603 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
3604 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
3605 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
3606
3607 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
3608 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
3609 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
3610 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
3611 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
3612 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
3613 callback.
3614 [Richard Levitte]
3615
3616 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
3617 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
3618 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
3619 and interrupts/cancellations.
3620 [Richard Levitte]
3621
3622 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
3623 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
3624 [Steve Henson]
3625
3626 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
3627 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
3628 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
3629
3630 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
3631 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
3632 kind of callback.
3633 [Richard Levitte]
3634
3635 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
3636 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
3637 than this minimum value is recommended.
3638 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3639
3640 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
3641 that are easily reachable.
3642 [Richard Levitte]
3643
3644 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
3645 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
3646
3647 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
3648
3649 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
3650 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
3651 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
3652 needed for static libraries under Win32.
3653 [Steve Henson]
3654
3655 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
3656 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
3657 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
3658 [Steve Henson]
3659
3660 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
3661 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
3662 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
3663 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
3664 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
3665 internally such as S/MIME.
3666
3667 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
3668 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
3669 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
3670
3671 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
3672 applications.
3673 [Steve Henson]
3674
3675 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
3676 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
3677 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
3678 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
3679
3680 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3681
3682 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
3683
3684 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
3685 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
3686 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
3687 handling.
3688 [Steve Henson]
3689
3690 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
3691 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
3692 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
3693 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
3694 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
3695 a window system and the like.
3696 [Richard Levitte]
3697
3698 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
3699 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
3700 [Geoff]
3701
3702 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
3703 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
3704 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
3705 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
3706 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
3707 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
3708 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
3709 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
3710 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
3711 ENGINE structure.
3712 [Geoff]
3713
3714 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
3715 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
3716 tag cache.
3717 [Steve Henson]
3718
3719 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
3720 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
3721 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
3722 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
3723 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
3724 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
3725 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
3726 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
3727 [Geoff]
3728
3729 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
3730 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
3731 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
3732 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
3733 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
3734 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
3735 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
3736 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
3737 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
3738 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
3739 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
3740 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
3741 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
3742 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
3743 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
3744 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
3745 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
3746 [Geoff]
3747
3748 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
3749 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
3750 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
3751 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
3752 internal engine_int.h header.
3753 [Geoff]
3754
3755 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
3756 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
3757 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
3758 modify their own ones).
3759 [Geoff]
3760
3761 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
3762 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
3763 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
3764 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
3765 later on via ctrl() commands.
3766 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
3767 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
3768 structural references.
3769 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
3770 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
3771 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
3772 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
3773 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
3774 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
3775 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
3776 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
3777 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
3778 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
3779 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
3780 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
3781 [Geoff]
3782
3783 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
3784 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
3785 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
3786 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
3787 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
3788 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
3789 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
3790 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
3791 [Bodo Moeller]
3792
3793 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
3794 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
3795 [Steve Henson]
3796
3797 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
3798 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
3799 [Steve Henson]
3800
3801 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
3802 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
3803 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
3804 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
3805 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
3806 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
3807 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
3808 [Steve Henson]
3809
3810 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
3811 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
3812 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
3813 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
3814 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
3815
3816 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
3817 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
3818 generator).
3819 [Bodo Moeller]
3820
3821 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
3822
3823 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
3824 operations and provides various method functions that can also
3825 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
3826
3827 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
3828 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
3829
3830 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
3831 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
3832 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
3833
3834 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
3835 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
3836
3837 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
3838 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
3839
3840 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
3841
3842 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
3843 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
3844 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
3845 [Bodo Moeller]
3846
3847 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
3848 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
3849 [Richard Levitte]
3850
3851 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
3852 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
3853 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
3854 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
3855 is 40 of more characters long.
3856 [Steve Henson]
3857
3858 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
3859 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
3860 pointers.
3861 [Steve Henson]
3862
3863 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
3864 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
3865 [Bodo Moeller]
3866
3867 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
3868 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
3869 might.
3870 [Steve Henson]
3871
3872 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
3873
3874 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
3875 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
3876
3877 ASN1 error codes
3878 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
3879 ...
3880 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
3881 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
3882 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
3883 ...
3884 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
3885 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
3886
3887 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
3888 [Bodo Moeller]
3889
3890 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
3891 suffices.
3892 [Bodo Moeller]
3893
3894 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
3895 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
3896 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
3897 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
3898 and
3899 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
3900
3901 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
3902 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
3903
3904 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
3905 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
3906 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
3907 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
3908 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
3909 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
3910
3911 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3912 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3913
3914 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3915 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3916
3917 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3918 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3919
3920 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3921 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3922 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3923 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3924
3925 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
3926 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
3927
3928 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
3929 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
3930
3931 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3932 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3933 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3934 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3935 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
3936 [Richard Levitte]
3937
3938 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
3939 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
3940 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
3941 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
3942 [Steve Henson]
3943
3944 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
3945 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
3946 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
3947 trust settings.
3948 [Steve Henson]
3949
3950 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
3951 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
3952 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
3953 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
3954 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
3955 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
3956 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
3957 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
3958 ocsp utility.
3959 [Steve Henson]
3960
3961 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
3962 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
3963 [Steve Henson]
3964
3965 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
3966 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
3967 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
3968 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
3969 [Steve Henson]
3970
3971 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
3972 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
3973 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
3974 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
3975 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
3976 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
3977 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
3978 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
3979 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
3980 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
3981 [Steve Henson]
3982
3983 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
3984 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
3985 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
3986 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
3987 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
3988 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
3989 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
3990 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3991
3992 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
3993 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
3994 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
3995 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
3996 [Richard Levitte]
3997
3998 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
3999 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
4000 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
4001 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
4002 opensslconf.h.
4003 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
4004 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
4005 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
4006 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
4007 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
4008 what is available.
4009 [Richard Levitte]
4010
4011 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
4012 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
4013 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
4014 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
4015 auto incremented.
4016 [Steve Henson]
4017
4018 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
4019 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
4020 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
4021 [Steve Henson]
4022
4023 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
4024 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
4025 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
4026 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
4027 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
4028 [Steve Henson]
4029
4030 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
4031 [Steve Henson]
4032
4033 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
4034 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
4035 option to ocsp utility.
4036 [Steve Henson]
4037
4038 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
4039 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
4040 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
4041 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
4042 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
4043 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
4044 the request is nonce-less.
4045 [Steve Henson]
4046
4047 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
4048 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
4049 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
4050 [Bodo Moeller]
4051
4052 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
4053 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
4054 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
4055 [Steve Henson]
4056
4057 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
4058 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
4059 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
4060 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
4061 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
4062 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4063
4064 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
4065 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
4066 appear to exist.
4067 [Steve Henson]
4068
4069 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
4070 additional certificates supplied.
4071 [Steve Henson]
4072
4073 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
4074 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
4075 signature against.
4076 [Richard Levitte]
4077
4078 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
4079 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
4080 AES OIDs.
4081
4082 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
4083 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
4084 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
4085 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
4086 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
4087 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
4088 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
4089 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
4090 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4091
4092 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
4093 request to response.
4094 [Steve Henson]
4095
4096 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
4097 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
4098 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
4099 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
4100 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
4101 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
4102 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
4103 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
4104 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
4105 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
4106 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
4107 [Steve Henson]
4108
4109 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
4110 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
4111 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
4112 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
4113 [Steve Henson]
4114
4115 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
4116 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
4117
4118 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
4119 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
4120 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
4121 [Steve Henson]
4122
4123 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
4124 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
4125 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
4126 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
4127 <support@securenetterm.com>]
4128
4129 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
4130 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
4131 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
4132 [Steve Henson]
4133
4134 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
4135 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
4136 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
4137 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
4138 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
4139 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
4140 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
4141 <support@securenetterm.com>]
4142
4143 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
4144 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
4145 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
4146 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
4147 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
4148 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
4149 [Steve Henson]
4150
4151 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
4152 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
4153 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
4154 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
4155 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
4156 printout format cleaned up.
4157 [Steve Henson]
4158
4159 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
4160 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
4161 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
4162 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
4163 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
4164 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
4165 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
4166 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
4167 [Steve Henson]
4168
4169 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
4170 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
4171 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
4172 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
4173 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
4174 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
4175 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
4176 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
4177 [Steve Henson]
4178
4179 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
4180 extensions from a separate configuration file.
4181 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
4182 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
4183 section to use.
4184 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
4185
4186 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
4187 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
4188 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
4189 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
4190 [Steve Henson]
4191
4192 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
4193 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
4194 the given serial number (according to the index file).
4195 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
4196 in the index file.
4197 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
4198
4199 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
4200 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
4201 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
4202 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
4203
4204 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
4205 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
4206
4207 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
4208 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
4209 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
4210 [Steve Henson]
4211
4212 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
4213 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
4214 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
4215 [Bodo Moeller]
4216
4217 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
4218 file name and line number information in additional arguments
4219 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
4220 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
4221 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
4222 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
4223 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
4224 functions are provided:
4225
4226 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
4227 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
4228 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
4229 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
4230
4231 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
4232 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
4233 extended allocation function is enabled.
4234 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
4235 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
4236 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
4237
4238 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
4239 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
4240 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
4241 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
4242 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
4243 [Geoff Thorpe]
4244
4245 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
4246 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
4247 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
4248 be queried.
4249 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
4250 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
4251 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
4252 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4253
4254 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
4255 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
4256 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
4257 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
4258 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
4259 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
4260 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
4261 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
4262 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
4263 [Richard Levitte]
4264
4265 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
4266 provide utility functions which an application needing
4267 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
4268 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
4269 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
4270
4271 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
4272 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
4273 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
4274 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
4275 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
4276 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
4277 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
4278 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
4279 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
4280
4281 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
4282 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
4283 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
4284 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
4285 [Steve Henson]
4286
4287 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
4288 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
4289 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
4290 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
4291 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
4292 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
4293 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
4294 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
4295 will be added elsewhere.
4296 [Steve Henson]
4297
4298 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
4299 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
4300 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
4301 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
4302 [Steve Henson]
4303
4304 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
4305 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
4306 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
4307 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
4308 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
4309 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
4310 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
4311 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
4312 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
4313 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
4314 to produce the required SET OF.
4315 [Steve Henson]
4316
4317 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
4318 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
4319 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
4320 [Richard Levitte]
4321
4322 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
4323 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
4324 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
4325 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
4326 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
4327 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
4328 [Steve Henson]
4329
4330 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
4331 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
4332 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
4333 [Steve Henson]
4334
4335 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
4336 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
4337 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
4338 [Richard Levitte]
4339
4340 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
4341 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
4342 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
4343 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
4344 code will still work when these eventually go away.
4345 [Steve Henson]
4346
4347 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
4348 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
4349 [Steve Henson]
4350
4351 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
4352 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
4353 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
4354 certifcates and CRLs.
4355 [Steve Henson]
4356
4357 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
4358 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
4359 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
4360 [Steve Henson]
4361
4362 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
4363 entries for variables.
4364 [Steve Henson]
4365
4366 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
4367 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
4368 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
4369 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
4370 [Bodo Moeller]
4371
4372 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
4373 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
4374 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
4375 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
4376 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
4377 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
4378 [Bodo Moeller]
4379
4380 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
4381 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
4382
4383 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
4384 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
4385 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
4386 [Steve Henson]
4387
4388 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
4389 print routines.
4390 [Steve Henson]
4391
4392 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
4393 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
4394 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
4395 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
4396 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
4397 order did not reflect the encoded order.
4398 [Steve Henson]
4399
4400 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
4401 [Steve Henson]
4402
4403 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
4404 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
4405 for now but they will eventually go away.
4406 [Steve Henson]
4407
4408 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
4409 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
4410 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
4411 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
4412 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
4413 has also been converted to the new form.
4414 [Steve Henson]
4415
4416 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
4417 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
4418 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
4419 for negative moduli.
4420 [Bodo Moeller]
4421
4422 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
4423 of not touching the result's sign bit.
4424 [Bodo Moeller]
4425
4426 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
4427 set.
4428 [Bodo Moeller]
4429
4430 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
4431 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
4432 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
4433 type-specific callbacks.
4434 [Geoff Thorpe]
4435
4436 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
4437 RFC 2712.
4438 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4439 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
4440
4441 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
4442 in sections depending on the subject.
4443 [Richard Levitte]
4444
4445 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
4446 Windows.
4447 [Richard Levitte]
4448
4449 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
4450 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
4451 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
4452 be handled deterministically).
4453 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
4454
4455 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
4456 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
4457 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
4458 [Bodo Moeller]
4459
4460 *) New function BN_kronecker.
4461 [Bodo Moeller]
4462
4463 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
4464 positive unless both parameters are zero.
4465 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
4466 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
4467 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
4468 [Bodo Moeller]
4469
4470 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
4471 sign of the number in question.
4472
4473 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
4474
4475 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
4476 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
4477 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
4478 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
4479 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
4480 [Bodo Moeller]
4481
4482 *) New function BN_swap.
4483 [Bodo Moeller]
4484
4485 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
4486 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
4487 results on negative inputs.
4488 [Bodo Moeller]
4489
4490 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
4491 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
4492 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
4493 [Bodo Moeller]
4494
4495 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
4496 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
4497 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
4498 and add new functions:
4499
4500 BN_nnmod
4501 BN_mod_sqr
4502 BN_mod_add
4503 BN_mod_add_quick
4504 BN_mod_sub
4505 BN_mod_sub_quick
4506 BN_mod_lshift1
4507 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
4508 BN_mod_lshift
4509 BN_mod_lshift_quick
4510
4511 These functions always generate non-negative results.
4512
4513 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
4514 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
4515
4516 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
4517 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
4518 be reduced modulo m.
4519 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
4520
4521 #if 0
4522 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
4523 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
4524 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
4525
4526 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4527 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4528 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4529 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4530 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4531 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4532 differing sizes.
4533 [Richard Levitte]
4534 #endif
4535
4536 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
4537 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
4538 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
4539 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
4540 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
4541
4542 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
4543 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
4544 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
4545 cause any problems.
4546 [Bodo Moeller]
4547
4548 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
4549 [Richard Levitte]
4550
4551 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
4552 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
4553 [Richard Levitte]
4554
4555 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
4556 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
4557 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
4558 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
4559 time)
4560 [Richard Levitte]
4561
4562 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
4563 [Richard Levitte]
4564
4565 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
4566 [Richard Levitte]
4567
4568 *) Add the following functions:
4569
4570 ENGINE_load_cswift()
4571 ENGINE_load_chil()
4572 ENGINE_load_atalla()
4573 ENGINE_load_nuron()
4574 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
4575
4576 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
4577 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
4578 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
4579 libraries unless it's really needed.
4580
4581 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
4582 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
4583 declarations (they differed!).
4584 [Richard Levitte]
4585
4586 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
4587 [Richard Levitte]
4588
4589 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
4590 [Richard Levitte]
4591
4592 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
4593 [Bodo Moeller]
4594
4595 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
4596 identity, and test if they are actually available.
4597 [Richard Levitte]
4598
4599 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
4600 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
4601 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
4602
4603 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
4604 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
4605 [Richard Levitte]
4606
4607 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
4608 [Richard Levitte]
4609
4610 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
4611 [Richard Levitte]
4612
4613 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
4614 [Ben Laurie]
4615
4616 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
4617 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
4618 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
4619
4620 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
4621 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
4622 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
4623 different shared library filenames on each system.
4624 [Geoff Thorpe]
4625
4626 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
4627 [Richard Levitte]
4628
4629 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
4630 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
4631 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
4632 of two sections.
4633 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
4634
4635 *) NCONF changes.
4636 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
4637 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
4638 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
4639 binary backward compatibility.
4640 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
4641 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
4642 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
4643 LDAP server.
4644 [Richard Levitte]
4645
4646 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
4647 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
4648 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
4649 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
4650 this case.
4651 [Steve Henson]
4652
4653 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
4654 [Ben Laurie]
4655
4656 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
4657 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
4658 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
4659 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
4660 set.
4661 [Steve Henson]
4662
4663 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
4664 [Richard Levitte]
4665
4666 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
4667
4668 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4669 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4670 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4671
4672 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
4673
4674 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
4675
4676 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
4677 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
4678 [Steve Henson]
4679
4680 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
4681
4682 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4683
4684 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4685 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4686
4687 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4688 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4689
4690 [Steve Henson]
4691
4692 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4693 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4694 specifications.
4695 [Steve Henson]
4696
4697 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4698 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4699 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4700 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4701
4702 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4703 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4704 [Richard Levitte]
4705
4706 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
4707
4708 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4709 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4710 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4711 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4712 [Bodo Moeller]
4713
4714 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4715 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4716 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4717 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4718 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4719
4720 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4721 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4722 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4723 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4724 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4725 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4726 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4727 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4728 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4729 [Bodo Moeller]
4730
4731 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
4732
4733 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4734 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4735 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4736 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4737 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4738
4739 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4740 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4741 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4742
4743 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
4744
4745 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
4746 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
4747 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
4748 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
4749 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
4750 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
4751 [Geoff Thorpe]
4752
4753 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
4754 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
4755 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
4756 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
4757 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
4758 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4759
4760 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
4761 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
4762 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
4763
4764 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
4765 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
4766 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
4767 EVP_cleanup().
4768 [Richard Levitte]
4769
4770 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
4771 being properly terminated.
4772 [Richard Levitte]
4773
4774 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
4775 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
4776 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
4777 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
4778
4779 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
4780 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
4781 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
4782 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
4783 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
4784 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
4785 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
4786 change.
4787 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
4788
4789 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
4790 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
4791 [Bodo Moeller]
4792
4793 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
4794 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
4795 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
4796 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
4797 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
4798 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
4799 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
4800 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
4801
4802 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
4803 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
4804 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
4805 (see [openssl.org #212]).
4806 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
4807
4808 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
4809 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
4810 [Steve Henson]
4811
4812 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
4813
4814 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
4815 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
4816 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
4817
4818 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
4819
4820 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
4821 and get fix the header length calculation.
4822 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
4823 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
4824 Steve Henson]
4825
4826 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
4827 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
4828 assertions could call abort()).
4829 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
4830
4831 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
4832
4833 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4834 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4835 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4836 supplied buffer.
4837 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4838
4839 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
4840 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
4841 by the selection routines (PR #130).
4842 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4843
4844 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
4845 [Nils Larsch]
4846
4847 *) New option
4848 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
4849 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
4850 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
4851
4852 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
4853 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
4854 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
4855 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
4856 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
4857 applications.
4858 [Bodo Moeller]
4859
4860 *) Changes in security patch:
4861
4862 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
4863 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
4864 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
4865 F30602-01-2-0537.
4866
4867 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4868 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4869 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4870 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
4871 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4872
4873 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
4874 happen in practice.
4875 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4876
4877 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
4878 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
4879 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
4880
4881 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4882 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
4883 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4884
4885 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
4886 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
4887 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4888
4889 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
4890
4891 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
4892 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
4893 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
4894
4895 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
4896 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4897
4898 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
4899 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
4900 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
4901 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
4902 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
4903 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
4904 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4905
4906 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
4907 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
4908 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
4909 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
4910 [Bodo Moeller]
4911
4912 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
4913 [Bodo Moeller]
4914
4915 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
4916 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
4917 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
4918 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4919 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4920 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4921
4922 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4923 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4924 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4925 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4926 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4927 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4928
4929 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4930 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4931 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4932 BN_generate_prime().)
4933
4934 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4935 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4936 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4937 better.
4938 [Bodo Moeller]
4939
4940 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
4941 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
4942 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4943
4944 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
4945 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
4946 when using non-blocking I/O.
4947 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
4948
4949 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
4950 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
4951
4952 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
4953 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
4954 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4955
4956 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
4957 configuration for the versions before that.
4958 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4959
4960 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
4961 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
4962 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
4963 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
4964 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4965
4966 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
4967 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
4968 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
4969 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4970
4971 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
4972 value is 0.
4973 [Richard Levitte]
4974
4975 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
4976 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4977 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4978
4979 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
4980 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
4981
4982 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
4983 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
4984 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
4985 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
4986 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
4987 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
4988 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
4989 session cache.
4990
4991 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
4992 using a local variable.
4993 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4994
4995 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
4996 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
4997 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4998
4999 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
5000 [Richard Levitte]
5001
5002 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
5003 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
5004
5005 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
5006 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
5007 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
5008
5009 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
5010
5011 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
5012 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
5013 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
5014 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
5015 [Bodo Moeller]
5016
5017 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
5018 present.
5019 [Steve Henson]
5020
5021 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
5022 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
5023 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
5024 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
5025 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
5026
5027 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
5028 returns early because it has nothing to do.
5029 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5030
5031 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5032 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
5033 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5034
5035 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5036 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
5037 (Use engine 'keyclient')
5038 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
5039
5040 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
5041 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
5042 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
5043 modules).
5044 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
5045
5046 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5047 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
5048 from 0.9.7.
5049 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
5050
5051 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5052 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
5053 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5054 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
5055
5056 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5057 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
5058 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5059 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
5060
5061 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
5062 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
5063
5064 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
5065 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
5066 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
5067 [Bodo Moeller]
5068
5069 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
5070 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
5071 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
5072 become invalid.
5073 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
5074
5075 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
5076 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
5077 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
5078 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
5079 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
5080 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
5081 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
5082 [Bodo Moeller]
5083
5084 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
5085 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
5086 one of the SSL handshake functions.
5087 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
5088
5089 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
5090 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
5091 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
5092 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
5093 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
5094 the client will at least see that alert.
5095 [Bodo Moeller]
5096
5097 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
5098 correctly.
5099 [Bodo Moeller]
5100
5101 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
5102 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
5103 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5104
5105 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
5106 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
5107 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
5108 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
5109 HelloRequest.
5110
5111 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
5112 before just sending a HelloRequest.
5113 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
5114
5115 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
5116 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
5117 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
5118 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
5119 may leak via logfiles.)
5120
5121 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
5122 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
5123 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
5124 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
5125 the legal range.
5126 [Bodo Moeller]
5127
5128 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
5129 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5130 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5131
5132 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
5133 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
5134 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
5135 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
5136 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
5137 [Bodo Moeller]
5138
5139 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
5140 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
5141
5142 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
5143 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
5144 followed by modular reduction.
5145 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
5146
5147 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
5148 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
5149 [Bodo Moeller]
5150
5151 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
5152 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
5153 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
5154 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
5155 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5156
5157 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
5158 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5159
5160 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
5161 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
5162 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5163
5164 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
5165 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
5166 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
5167 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
5168 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
5169 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
5170 automatically.
5171 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
5172
5173 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
5174 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
5175 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
5176 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
5177 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
5178
5179 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
5180 [Andy Polyakov]
5181
5182 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
5183 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
5184 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
5185 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
5186 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
5187 to allow the necessary settings.
5188 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5189
5190 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
5191 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
5192 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
5193 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
5194 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5195
5196 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
5197 dh->length and always used
5198
5199 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
5200
5201 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
5202 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
5203 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
5204 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
5205 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
5206 dh->length.
5207
5208 So switch back to
5209
5210 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
5211
5212 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
5213 otherwise.
5214 [Bodo Moeller]
5215
5216 *) In
5217
5218 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
5219 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
5220 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
5221 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
5222
5223 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
5224 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
5225 always reject numbers >= n.
5226 [Bodo Moeller]
5227
5228 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
5229 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
5230 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
5231 variable) is not atomic.
5232 [Bodo Moeller]
5233
5234 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
5235 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
5236 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
5237 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
5238
5239 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
5240 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
5241
5242 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
5243 little-endian MIPS.
5244 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
5245
5246 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
5247 [Richard Levitte]
5248
5249 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
5250
5251 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
5252 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
5253 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
5254 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
5255 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
5256 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
5257 to traverse all of 'state'.
5258
5259 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
5260 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
5261 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
5262
5263 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
5264 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
5265
5266 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
5267 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
5268 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
5269 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
5270 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
5271 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
5272 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
5273 further strengthens the PRNG.
5274 [Bodo Moeller]
5275
5276 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
5277 [Andy Polyakov]
5278
5279 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
5280 an error message in this case.
5281 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5282
5283 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
5284 [Steve Henson]
5285
5286 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
5287 positive and less than q.
5288 [Bodo Moeller]
5289
5290 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
5291 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
5292 that itself.
5293 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
5294
5295 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
5296 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
5297 [Bodo Moeller]
5298
5299 *) Fix OAEP check.
5300 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
5301
5302 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
5303 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
5304 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
5305 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
5306 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
5307 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
5308 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
5309 paper.)
5310
5311 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
5312 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
5313 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
5314 detect the supposedly ignored error.
5315
5316 Both problems are now fixed.
5317 [Bodo Moeller]
5318
5319 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
5320 (previously it was 1024).
5321 [Bodo Moeller]
5322
5323 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
5324 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
5325 [Steve Henson]
5326
5327 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
5328 [Steve Henson]
5329
5330 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
5331 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
5332 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
5333 [Steve Henson]
5334
5335 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
5336 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
5337 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
5338 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
5339 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
5340 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
5341 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
5342 environment variables.
5343
5344 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
5345 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
5346 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
5347 [Bodo Moeller]
5348
5349 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
5350 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
5351 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
5352 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
5353 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
5354 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
5355 [Bodo Moeller]
5356
5357 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
5358 versions of 'test'.
5359 [Bodo Moeller]
5360
5361 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
5362
5363 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
5364 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
5365
5366 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
5367 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
5368 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
5369 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
5370 CygWin.
5371 [Richard Levitte]
5372
5373 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
5374 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
5375 amount of data available.
5376 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
5377 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5378
5379 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
5380 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
5381 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
5382 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
5383 [Bodo Moeller]
5384
5385 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
5386 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
5387 and UnixWare.
5388 [Richard Levitte]
5389
5390 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
5391 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
5392 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
5393 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
5394 [Ulf Moeller]
5395
5396 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
5397 [Andy Polyakov]
5398
5399 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
5400 [Richard Levitte]
5401
5402 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
5403 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
5404 [Steve Henson]
5405 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5406
5407 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
5408 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
5409 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
5410 (but broken) behaviour.
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
5413 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
5414 it when found.
5415 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
5416
5417 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
5418 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
5419 [Bodo Moeller]
5420
5421 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
5422 did not exist.
5423 [Bodo Moeller]
5424
5425 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
5426 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
5427
5428 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
5429 [Richard Levitte]
5430
5431 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
5432 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
5433 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
5434
5435 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
5436 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
5437 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
5438 [Steve Henson]
5439
5440 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
5441 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
5442 [Ulf Moeller]
5443
5444 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
5445 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
5446
5447 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
5448
5449 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
5450
5451 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
5452 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
5453 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
5454 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
5455 [Bodo Moeller]
5456
5457 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
5458 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5459
5460 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
5461 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
5462 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5463
5464 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
5465 was empty.
5466 [Steve Henson]
5467 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5468
5469 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
5470 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
5471 but the code is actually correct.
5472 [Steve Henson]
5473
5474 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
5475 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
5476 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
5477 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
5478 and leaves the highest bit random.
5479 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
5480
5481 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
5482 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
5483 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
5484 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
5485 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
5486 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
5487 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
5488 [Bodo Moeller]
5489
5490 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
5491 [Ulf Moeller]
5492
5493 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
5494 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
5495 [Steve Henson]
5496
5497 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
5498 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
5499 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
5500 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
5501 headers.
5502 [Richard Levitte]
5503
5504 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
5505 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
5506 and break the signature.
5507 [Steve Henson]
5508 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5509
5510 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
5511 DH ciphersuites.
5512 [Steve Henson]
5513
5514 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
5515 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
5516 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
5517 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
5518 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
5519 [Bodo Moeller]
5520
5521 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
5522 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5523
5524 *) ./config script fixes.
5525 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
5526
5527 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
5528 [Bodo Moeller]
5529
5530 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
5531 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
5532 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
5533 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
5534 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
5535
5536 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
5537 call failed, free the DSA structure.
5538 [Bodo Moeller]
5539
5540 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
5541 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
5542 [Steve Henson]
5543
5544 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
5545 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
5546 when writing a 32767 byte record.
5547 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
5548
5549 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
5550 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
5551
5552 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
5553 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
5554 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
5555 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
5556 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
5557
5558 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
5559 [Bodo Moeller]
5560
5561 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
5562 [Ulf Möller]
5563
5564 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
5565 [Ulf Möller]
5566
5567 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
5568 [Bodo Moeller]
5569
5570 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
5571 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
5572 [Bodo Moeller]
5573
5574 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
5575 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
5576 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
5577 result of the server certificate verification.)
5578 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5579
5580 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
5581 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
5582 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
5583 [Bodo Moeller]
5584
5585 *) Fix SSL_peek:
5586 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
5587 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
5588 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
5589 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
5590 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
5591 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
5592 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
5593 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
5594 [Bodo Moeller]
5595
5596 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
5597 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
5598 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
5599 happening the other way round.
5600 [Geoff Thorpe]
5601
5602 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
5603 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
5604 [Bodo Moeller]
5605
5606 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
5607 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
5608 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
5609 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
5610 [Richard Levitte]
5611
5612 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
5613 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
5614
5615 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
5616
5617 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
5618 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
5619 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
5620 that.
5621
5622 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
5623
5624 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
5625
5626 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
5627 static ones.
5628 [Richard Levitte]
5629
5630 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
5631
5632 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
5633 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
5634 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
5635 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
5636 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
5637
5638 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
5639 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
5640 matter what.
5641 [Richard Levitte]
5642
5643 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
5644 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5645
5646 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
5647
5648 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
5649 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
5650 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
5651 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
5652 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
5653 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
5654 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
5655 by the Finished messages.
5656 [Bodo Moeller]
5657
5658 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
5659 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
5660
5661 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
5662 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
5663 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
5664 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
5665 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
5666 appropriately.
5667 [Steve Henson]
5668
5669 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
5670 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
5671 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
5672 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
5673 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
5674 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
5675 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
5676 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
5677 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
5678 together.
5679 [Steve Henson]
5680
5681 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
5682 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
5683 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
5684 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
5685
5686 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
5687 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
5688 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
5689 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
5690 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
5691 the answer.
5692
5693 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
5694 been tested well enough.
5695 [Richard Levitte]
5696
5697 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
5698 it can return incorrect results.
5699 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
5700 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
5701 [Bodo Moeller]
5702
5703 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
5704 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
5705 include zero length content when signing messages.
5706 [Steve Henson]
5707
5708 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
5709 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
5710 [Bodo Möller]
5711
5712 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
5713 [Richard Levitte]
5714
5715 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
5716 wrong sign.
5717 [Ulf Möller]
5718
5719 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
5720 packages. The default package contains applications, application
5721 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
5722 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
5723 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
5724 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
5725 [Richard Levitte]
5726
5727 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
5728 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
5729
5730 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
5731 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
5732
5733 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
5734 random number < q in the DSA library.
5735 [Ulf Möller]
5736
5737 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
5738 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
5739 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
5740 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
5741 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
5742 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
5743 just makes things more complicated.)
5744 [Bodo Moeller]
5745
5746 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
5747 from EGD.
5748 [Ben Laurie]
5749
5750 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
5751 work better on such systems.
5752 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
5753
5754 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
5755 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
5756 keyid to the certificates aux info.
5757 [Steve Henson]
5758
5759 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
5760 if there was more than one signature.
5761 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
5762
5763 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
5764 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
5765 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
5766 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
5767 [Richard Levitte]
5768
5769 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
5770 rather than always using the current time.
5771 [Steve Henson]
5772
5773 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
5774 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
5775 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
5776 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
5777 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
5778 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
5779
5780 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
5781 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
5782
5783 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
5784
5785 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
5786 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
5787 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
5788 the same hash value.
5789
5790 As a result various functions (which were all internal
5791 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
5792 structure. This will break anything that messed round
5793 with X509_STORE internally.
5794
5795 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
5796 exact match, rather than just subject name.
5797
5798 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
5799 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
5800 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
5801 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
5802 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
5803 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
5804 entirely (maybe later...).
5805
5806 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
5807
5808 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
5809 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
5810 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
5811 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
5812 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
5813 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
5814 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
5815 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
5816
5817 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
5818 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5819
5820 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
5821 to customise the verify behaviour.
5822 [Steve Henson]
5823
5824 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
5825 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
5826 [Steve Henson]
5827
5828 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
5829 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
5830 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
5831 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
5832 request is improperly encoded.
5833 [Steve Henson]
5834
5835 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
5836 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
5837 BIO_write(b, ...).
5838
5839 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
5840 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
5841
5842 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
5843 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
5844 words set to zero.)
5845 [Bodo Moeller]
5846
5847 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
5848 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
5849 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
5850 [Bodo Moeller]
5851
5852 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
5853 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
5854 BIO/fp routines also added.
5855 [Steve Henson]
5856
5857 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
5858 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
5859
5860 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
5861 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
5862 demos/state_machine.
5863 [Ben Laurie]
5864
5865 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
5866 generation and verification.
5867 [Steve Henson]
5868
5869 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
5870 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
5871 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
5872 encode and decode it manually.
5873 [Steve Henson]
5874
5875 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
5876 compile under VC++.
5877 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
5878
5879 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
5880 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
5881 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
5882 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
5883
5884 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
5885 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
5886 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
5887 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
5888 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
5889 [Steve Henson]
5890
5891 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
5892 [Richard Levitte]
5893
5894 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
5895 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
5896 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
5897
5898 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
5899 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
5900 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
5901 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
5902 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
5903 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
5904 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
5905 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
5906
5907 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
5908 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
5909
5910 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
5911
5912 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
5913 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
5914 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
5915
5916 [Richard Levitte]
5917
5918 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
5919 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
5920 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
5921 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
5922 [Richard Levitte]
5923
5924 *) MD4 implemented.
5925 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
5926
5927 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
5928 [Richard Levitte]
5929
5930 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5931 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5932 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5933 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5934 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5935 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5936 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5937 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
5938 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
5939 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
5940 short or long names are found.
5941 [Steve Henson]
5942
5943 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
5944 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
5945
5946 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
5947 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
5948 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
5949 version rollback attacks was not effective.
5950
5951 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
5952 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
5953 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
5954 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
5955 [Bodo Moeller]
5956
5957 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
5958 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
5959 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
5960 [Richard Levitte]
5961
5962 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
5963 these print out strings and name structures based on various
5964 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
5965 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
5966 to allow the various flags to be set.
5967 [Steve Henson]
5968
5969 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
5970 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
5971 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
5972 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
5973 dates to be checked.
5974 [Steve Henson]
5975
5976 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
5977 negative public key encodings) on by default,
5978 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
5979 [Steve Henson]
5980
5981 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
5982 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
5983 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
5984 [Steve Henson]
5985
5986 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
5987 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
5988 [Bodo Moeller]
5989
5990 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
5991 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
5992 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
5993 are always statically linked for now, but there are
5994 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
5995 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
5996 [Richard Levitte]
5997
5998 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
5999 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
6000 Random Numbers.
6001 [Ulf Möller]
6002
6003 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
6004 DSA key.
6005 [Steve Henson]
6006
6007 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
6008 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
6009 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
6010 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
6011 form signing output easier to verify.
6012 [Steve Henson]
6013
6014 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
6015 [Steve Henson]
6016
6017 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
6018 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
6019 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
6020 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
6021 are needed because all other string types have virtually
6022 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
6023 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
6024 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
6025 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
6026 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
6027 [Steve Henson]
6028
6029 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
6030
6031 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
6032 the syntax given in objects.README.
6033 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
6034 obj_mac.h.
6035 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
6036 obj_mac.h.
6037
6038 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
6039 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
6040 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
6041 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
6042 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
6043 consistent name changes.
6044 [Richard Levitte]
6045
6046 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
6047 [Bodo Moeller]
6048
6049 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
6050 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
6051 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
6052 environment variable, or the default random state file.
6053 [Richard Levitte]
6054
6055 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
6056 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
6057 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
6058 of safestack.h .
6059 [Steve Henson]
6060
6061 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
6062 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
6063 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
6064 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
6065 [Steve Henson]
6066
6067 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
6068 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
6069 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
6070 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
6071 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
6072 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
6073 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
6074 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
6075 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
6076 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
6077 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
6078 [Steve Henson]
6079
6080 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
6081 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
6082 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
6083 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
6084 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
6085 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
6086 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
6087 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
6088 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
6089 algorithm to openssl-dev.
6090 [Steve Henson]
6091
6092 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
6093 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
6094 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
6095 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
6096
6097 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
6098 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
6099 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
6100 omit any duplicate addresses.
6101 [Steve Henson]
6102
6103 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
6104 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
6105 [Bodo Moeller]
6106
6107 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
6108 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
6109 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
6110 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
6111 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
6112 [Bodo Moeller]
6113
6114 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
6115 software:
6116 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
6117 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
6118 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
6119 Free => OPENSSL_free
6120 [Richard Levitte]
6121
6122 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
6123 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
6124 [Bodo Moeller]
6125
6126 *) CygWin32 support.
6127 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
6128
6129 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
6130 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
6131 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
6132 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
6133 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
6134 approach.
6135 [Geoff Thorpe]
6136
6137 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
6138 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
6139 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
6140 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
6141 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
6142 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
6143 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
6144 [Geoff Thorpe]
6145
6146 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
6147 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
6148 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
6149 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
6150 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
6151 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
6152 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
6153 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
6154 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
6155 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
6156 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
6157 [Bodo Moeller]
6158
6159 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
6160 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
6161 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
6162 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
6163 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
6164
6165 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
6166 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
6167 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
6168 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
6169 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
6170
6171 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
6172 ciphers.
6173
6174 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
6175 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
6176 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
6177 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
6178
6179 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
6180
6181 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
6182 of macros.
6183
6184 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
6185 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
6186 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
6187 flags.
6188
6189 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
6190 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
6191 any installed hardware versions can.
6192 [Steve Henson]
6193
6194 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
6195 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
6196 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
6197 number.
6198 [Bodo Moeller]
6199
6200 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
6201 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
6202 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
6203 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
6204 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
6205
6206 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
6207 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
6208 [Steve Henson]
6209
6210 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
6211 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
6212 [Richard Levitte]
6213
6214 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
6215 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
6216 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
6217 features.
6218 [Steve Henson]
6219
6220 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
6221 [Ulf Möller]
6222
6223 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
6224 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
6225 but no ssl client purpose.
6226 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
6227
6228 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
6229 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
6230 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
6231 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
6232 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
6233 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
6234 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
6235 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
6236 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
6237 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
6238 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
6239 [Steve Henson]
6240
6241 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
6242 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
6243 be obtained from the error queue.
6244 [Bodo Moeller]
6245
6246 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
6247 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
6248 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
6249 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
6250 [Bodo Moeller]
6251
6252 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
6253 [Ulf Möller]
6254
6255 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
6256 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
6257 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
6258 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
6259 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
6260 [Geoff Thorpe]
6261
6262 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
6263 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
6264 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
6265 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
6266 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
6267 [Geoff Thorpe]
6268
6269 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
6270 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
6271 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
6272 may not be NULL.
6273 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
6274
6275 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
6276 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
6277 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
6278 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
6279 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
6280 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
6281 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
6282 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
6283 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
6284 or "the configuration storage API"...
6285
6286 The new configuration file reading functions are:
6287
6288 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
6289 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
6290
6291 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
6292
6293 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
6294
6295 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
6296 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
6297 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
6298 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
6299 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
6300 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
6301 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
6302
6303 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
6304 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
6305 [Richard Levitte]
6306
6307 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
6308 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
6309 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
6310 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
6311 [Bodo Moeller]
6312
6313 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
6314 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
6315 them in a portable way.
6316 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
6317
6318 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
6319
6320 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
6321
6322 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
6323 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
6324
6325 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
6326 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
6327 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
6328 <attili@amaxo.com>]
6329
6330 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
6331 was larger than the MD block size.
6332 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
6333
6334 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
6335 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
6336 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
6337 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
6338 components.
6339 [Steve Henson]
6340
6341 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
6342 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
6343 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
6344
6345 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
6346 discouraged.
6347 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
6348
6349 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
6350 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
6351 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
6352 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
6353 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
6354 Additional arguments are always ignored.
6355
6356 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
6357 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
6358
6359 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
6360 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
6361 [Bodo Moeller]
6362
6363 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
6364 [Bodo Moeller]
6365
6366 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
6367 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
6368 its own key.
6369 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
6370 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
6371 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
6372 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
6373 [Bodo Moeller]
6374
6375 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
6376 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
6377 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
6378 does not suppress any output.
6379 [Richard Levitte]
6380
6381 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
6382 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
6383 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
6384 with all the associated security issues.
6385
6386 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
6387 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
6388 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
6389 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
6390 use the value in the default purpose.
6391 [Steve Henson]
6392
6393 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
6394 and fix a memory leak.
6395 [Steve Henson]
6396
6397 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
6398 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
6399 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
6400 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
6401 [Bodo Moeller]
6402
6403 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
6404 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
6405 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
6406 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
6407 [Bodo Moeller]
6408
6409 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
6410 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
6411 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
6412 [Bodo Moeller]
6413
6414 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
6415 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
6416 [Bodo Moeller]
6417
6418 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
6419 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
6420 which was free.
6421 [Steve Henson]
6422
6423 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
6424 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
6425 [Bodo Moeller]
6426
6427 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
6428 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
6429 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
6430 [Bodo Moeller]
6431
6432 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
6433 number generation fails.
6434 [Bodo Moeller]
6435
6436 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
6437 [Bodo Moeller]
6438
6439 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
6440 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
6441
6442 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
6443 [Ulf Möller]
6444
6445 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
6446 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
6447
6448 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
6449 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
6450
6451 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
6452
6453 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
6454 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
6455 [Steve Henson]
6456
6457 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
6458 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
6459
6460 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
6461 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
6462 [Ulf Möller]
6463
6464 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
6465 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
6466 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
6467 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
6468 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
6469 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
6470
6471 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
6472 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
6473 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
6474 for example.
6475 [Steve Henson]
6476
6477 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
6478 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
6479 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
6480 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
6481 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
6482 counter, some don't.)
6483 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
6484 counters or duplicate objects.
6485 [Steve Henson]
6486
6487 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
6488 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
6489 [Steve Henson]
6490
6491 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
6492 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
6493 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
6494
6495 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
6496 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
6497 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
6498 or -rand.
6499 [Ulf Möller]
6500
6501 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
6502 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
6503 [Steve Henson]
6504
6505 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
6506 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
6507 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
6508 cipher list.
6509 [Steve Henson]
6510
6511 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
6512 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
6513 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
6514 [Steve Henson]
6515
6516 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
6517 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
6518 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
6519 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
6520 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
6521 should work without changes.
6522 [Richard Levitte]
6523
6524 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
6525 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
6526 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
6527 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
6528 must be defined. E.g.,
6529 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
6530 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
6531 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
6532 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
6533
6534 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
6535 record layer.
6536 [Bodo Moeller]
6537
6538 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
6539 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
6540 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
6541 [Steve Henson]
6542
6543 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
6544 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
6545 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
6546 request header lines. Some software needs this.
6547 [Steve Henson]
6548
6549 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
6550 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
6551 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
6552 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
6553 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
6554 is prompted for as usual.
6555 [Steve Henson]
6556
6557 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
6558 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
6559 autodetect the card and use it if present.
6560 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
6561
6562 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
6563 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
6564 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
6565 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
6566 [Steve Henson]
6567
6568 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
6569 [Andy Polyakov]
6570
6571 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
6572 of seed file.
6573 [Steve Henson]
6574
6575 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
6576 [Bodo Moeller]
6577
6578 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
6579 [Steve Henson]
6580
6581 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
6582 bits.
6583 [Ulf Möller]
6584
6585 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
6586 [Ulf Möller]
6587
6588 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
6589 [Andy Polyakov]
6590
6591 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
6592 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
6593 [Ulf Möller]
6594
6595 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
6596 options to produce them.
6597 [Steve Henson]
6598
6599 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
6600 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
6601 [Ulf Möller]
6602
6603 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
6604 for p == 0.
6605 [Ulf Möller]
6606
6607 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
6608 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
6609 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
6610 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
6611 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
6612 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
6613 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
6614 [Steve Henson]
6615
6616 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
6617 [Steve Henson]
6618
6619 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
6620 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
6621 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
6622 [Bodo Moeller]
6623
6624 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
6625 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
6626
6627 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
6628 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
6629 [Ulf Möller]
6630
6631 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
6632 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
6633 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
6634 has already seen).
6635 [Bodo Moeller]
6636
6637 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
6638 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
6639
6640 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
6641 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
6642 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
6643 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
6644 generation becomes much faster.
6645
6646 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
6647 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
6648 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
6649 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
6650 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
6651 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
6652 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
6653 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
6654 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
6655 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
6656 [Bodo Moeller]
6657
6658 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
6659 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
6660 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
6661 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
6662 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
6663 trial division stage.
6664 [Bodo Moeller]
6665
6666 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
6667 as ASN1_TIME.
6668 [Steve Henson]
6669
6670 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
6671 [Steve Henson]
6672
6673 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
6674 [Ulf Möller]
6675
6676 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
6677 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
6678 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
6679 the comments.
6680 [Ulf Möller]
6681
6682 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
6683 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
6684 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
6685 [Bodo Moeller]
6686
6687 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
6688 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
6689 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
6690 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6691
6692 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
6693 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
6694 [Steve Henson]
6695
6696 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
6697 [Ulf Möller]
6698
6699 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
6700 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
6701 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
6702 Rabin-Miller iterations.
6703 [Ulf Möller]
6704
6705 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
6706 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
6707 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
6708 [Ulf Möller]
6709
6710 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
6711 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
6712 (instead of parameters) in future.
6713 [Steve Henson]
6714
6715 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
6716 when a new cipher list is set.
6717 [Steve Henson]
6718
6719 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
6720 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
6721 wrong.
6722
6723 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
6724 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
6725 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
6726
6727 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
6728 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
6729 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
6730 an error is flagged.
6731
6732 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
6733 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
6734 the readability was also increased :-)
6735 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6736
6737 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
6738 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
6739 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
6740 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
6741 as the root CA.
6742 [Steve Henson]
6743
6744 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
6745 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
6746 [Steve Henson]
6747
6748 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
6749 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
6750 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
6751 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
6752 instead.
6753
6754 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
6755 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
6756 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
6757 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
6758 because they handle more complex structures.)
6759 [Steve Henson]
6760
6761 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
6762 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
6763 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
6764 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
6765
6766 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
6767 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
6768 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
6769 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
6770 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
6771 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
6772 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
6773 [Ulf Möller]
6774
6775 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
6776 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
6777 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
6778 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
6779 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
6780 [Bodo Moeller]
6781
6782 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
6783 [Bodo Moeller]
6784
6785 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
6786 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
6787 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
6788 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
6789 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
6790 to use this.
6791
6792 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
6793 code.
6794 [Steve Henson]
6795
6796 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
6797 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
6798 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
6799 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
6800 [Steve Henson]
6801
6802 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
6803 [Ulf Möller]
6804
6805 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
6806 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
6807 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
6808 international characters are used.
6809
6810 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
6811 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
6812 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
6813 in ASN1 order.
6814 [Steve Henson]
6815
6816 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
6817 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
6818 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
6819 request.
6820
6821 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
6822 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
6823 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
6824 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
6825 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
6826 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
6827
6828 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
6829 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
6830 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
6831 be handled by the string table functions.
6832
6833 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
6834 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
6835 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
6836 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
6837 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
6838 types at all.
6839 [Steve Henson]
6840
6841 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
6842 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
6843 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
6844 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
6845 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
6846
6847 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
6848 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
6849 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
6850 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
6851 [Bodo Moeller]
6852
6853 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
6854 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
6855 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
6856 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
6857 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
6858 SHA1.
6859 [Andy Polyakov]
6860
6861 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
6862 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
6863 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
6864 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
6865 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
6866 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
6867 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
6868 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
6869
6870 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
6871 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
6872 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
6873 [Steve Henson]
6874
6875 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
6876 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
6877 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
6878 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
6879 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
6880 support to pkcs8 application.
6881 [Steve Henson]
6882
6883 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
6884 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
6885 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
6886 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
6887 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
6888 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
6889 [Bodo Moeller]
6890
6891 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
6892 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
6893 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
6894 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
6895 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
6896 consistency.
6897 [Bodo Moeller]
6898
6899 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
6900 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
6901 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
6902 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
6903 example.
6904 [Steve Henson]
6905
6906 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
6907 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
6908 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
6909 and any application specific purposes.
6910
6911 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6912 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6913 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6914 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
6915 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
6916 if the certificate is self signed.
6917 [Steve Henson]
6918
6919 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6920 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6921 [Steve Henson]
6922
6923 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6924 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
6925 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
6926 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6927 [Steve Henson]
6928
6929 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6930 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6931 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6932 Update documentation.
6933 [Steve Henson]
6934
6935 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6936 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
6937 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
6938 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
6939 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
6940 [Steve Henson]
6941
6942 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
6943 for details.
6944 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
6945
6946 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
6947 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
6948 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
6949 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
6950 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
6951 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
6952 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
6953 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
6954 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
6955 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
6956
6957 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
6958
6959 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6960 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6961 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
6962 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
6963 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
6964
6965 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
6966 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
6967 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
6968 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
6969 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
6970 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
6971 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
6972 request additional information:
6973 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
6974 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
6975
6976 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
6977 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
6978 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
6979 options.
6980
6981 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
6982 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
6983
6984 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
6985 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
6986 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
6987
6988 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
6989 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6990
6991 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
6992 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
6993 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
6994 algorithm.
6995 [Steve Henson]
6996
6997 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
6998 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
6999 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
7000
7001 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
7002 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
7003 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
7004 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
7005 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
7006 included in OpenSSL.
7007 [Steve Henson]
7008
7009 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
7010 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
7011 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
7012 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
7013 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
7014 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
7015 [Bodo Moeller]
7016
7017 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
7018 PKCS12 structure.
7019 [Steve Henson]
7020
7021 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
7022 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
7023 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
7024 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
7025 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
7026 structure.
7027 [Steve Henson]
7028
7029 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
7030 need initialising.
7031 [Steve Henson]
7032
7033 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
7034 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
7035 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
7036 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
7037 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
7038 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
7039 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
7040 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
7041 be maintained manually.
7042
7043 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
7044 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
7045 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
7046 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
7047 work because people forget to call this function]
7048 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
7049 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
7050 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
7051 [Steve Henson]
7052
7053 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
7054 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
7055 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
7056 should be discouraged from doing it.
7057 [Ben Laurie]
7058
7059 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
7060 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
7061 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
7062 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
7063 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
7064 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
7065 [Steve Henson]
7066
7067 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
7068 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
7069 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
7070
7071 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
7072 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
7073 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
7074
7075 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
7076 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
7077 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
7078 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
7079 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
7080 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
7081
7082 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
7083 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
7084 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
7085
7086 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
7087 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
7088 and vice versa.
7089
7090 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
7091 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
7092 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
7093 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
7094 [Steve Henson]
7095
7096 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
7097 [Steve Henson]
7098
7099 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
7100 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
7101 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
7102 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
7103 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
7104 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
7105 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
7106 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
7107 keys so we should be OK.
7108
7109 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
7110 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
7111 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
7112 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
7113 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
7114 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
7115 stay in the name of compatibility.
7116
7117 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
7118 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
7119 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
7120
7121 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
7122 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
7123 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
7124 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
7125 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
7126 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
7127 supplied key).
7128 [Steve Henson]
7129
7130 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
7131 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
7132 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
7133 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
7134 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
7135 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
7136 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
7137 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
7138 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
7139 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
7140 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
7141 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
7142 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
7143 [Steve Henson]
7144
7145 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
7146 [Steve Henson]
7147
7148 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
7149 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
7150 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
7151 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
7152 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
7153 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
7154 single self signed certificate. This means that:
7155 openssl verify ss.pem
7156 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
7157 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
7158 is OK.
7159 [Steve Henson]
7160
7161 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
7162 (and add it to external session representation).
7163 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
7164 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
7165 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
7166 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
7167 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
7168 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
7169 security holes.
7170 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
7171
7172 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
7173 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
7174 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
7175 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
7176
7177 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
7178 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
7179 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
7180 [Steve Henson]
7181
7182 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
7183 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
7184 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
7185 code.
7186 [Steve Henson]
7187
7188 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
7189 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
7190 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
7191
7192 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
7193 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
7194 certificate auxiliary information.
7195 [Steve Henson]
7196
7197 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
7198 the 'enc' command.
7199 [Steve Henson]
7200
7201 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
7202 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
7203 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
7204 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
7205 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
7206 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
7207 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
7208 [Richard Levitte]
7209
7210 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
7211 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
7212 [Steve Henson]
7213
7214 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
7215 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
7216 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
7217 manpages and fix a few bugs.
7218 [Steve Henson]
7219
7220 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
7221 [Steve Henson]
7222
7223 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
7224 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
7225 [Steve Henson]
7226
7227 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
7228 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
7229 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
7230 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
7231 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
7232 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
7233 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
7234 using the new 'x509' options.
7235
7236 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
7237 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
7238 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
7239 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
7240 for all purposes.
7241 [Steve Henson]
7242
7243 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
7244 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
7245 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
7246 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
7247 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
7248 [Mark Cox]
7249
7250 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
7251 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
7252 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
7253 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
7254 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
7255 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
7256 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
7257 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
7258 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
7259 the key length and effective key length are equal.
7260 [Steve Henson]
7261
7262 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
7263 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
7264 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
7265 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
7266 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
7267 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
7268 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
7269 [Steve Henson]
7270
7271 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
7272 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
7273 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
7274 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
7275 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
7276 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
7277 openssl.cnf for more info.
7278 [Steve Henson]
7279
7280 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
7281 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
7282 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
7283 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
7284 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
7285 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
7286 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
7287 md should be large enough anyway.
7288 [Bodo Moeller]
7289
7290 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
7291 for handling the random seed file.
7292
7293 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
7294 ca,
7295 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
7296 s_client,
7297 s_server,
7298 x509 (when signing).
7299 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
7300 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
7301 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
7302
7303 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
7304 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
7305 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
7306 that support '-rand'.
7307 [Bodo Moeller]
7308
7309 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
7310 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
7311 [Bodo Moeller]
7312
7313 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
7314 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
7315 [Bill Perry]
7316
7317 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
7318 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
7319 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
7320 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
7321 is suitable.
7322 [Steve Henson]
7323
7324 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
7325 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
7326 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
7327 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
7328 [Steve Henson]
7329
7330 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
7331 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
7332 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
7333 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
7334 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
7335 print out all the purposes.
7336 [Steve Henson]
7337
7338 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
7339 functions.
7340 [Steve Henson]
7341
7342 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
7343 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
7344 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
7345 single function call.
7346 [Steve Henson]
7347
7348 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
7349 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
7350 [Andy Polyakov]
7351
7352 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
7353 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
7354 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
7355 [Steve Henson]
7356
7357 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
7358 when producing the local key id.
7359 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7360
7361 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
7362 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
7363 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
7364 "server.pem".
7365 [Steve Henson]
7366
7367 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
7368 a public key to be input or output. For example:
7369 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
7370 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
7371 [Steve Henson]
7372
7373 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
7374 in the message. This was handled by allowing
7375 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
7376 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
7377
7378 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
7379 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
7380 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
7381 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7382
7383 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
7384 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
7385 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
7386 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
7387 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
7388 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
7389 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
7390 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
7391 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
7392 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
7393 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
7394 trivial: move one line.
7395 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
7396
7397 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
7398 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
7399 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
7400 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
7401 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
7402 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
7403 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
7404 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
7405 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
7406 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
7407 with an event loop for example.
7408 [Steve Henson]
7409
7410 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
7411 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
7412 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
7413 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
7414 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
7415 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
7416 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
7417 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
7418 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
7419 [Steve Henson]
7420
7421 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
7422 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
7423 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
7424 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
7425 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
7426 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
7427 [Steve Henson]
7428
7429 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
7430 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
7431 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
7432 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
7433
7434 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
7435 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
7436 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
7437 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
7438 key generation.
7439 [Steve Henson]
7440
7441 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
7442 (still largely untested)
7443 [Bodo Moeller]
7444
7445 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
7446 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
7447 [Steve Henson]
7448
7449 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
7450 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
7451 [Steve Henson]
7452
7453 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
7454 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
7455 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
7456 [Bodo Moeller]
7457
7458 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
7459 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
7460 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
7461 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
7462 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
7463 [Steve Henson]
7464
7465 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
7466 [Andy Polyakov]
7467
7468 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
7469 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
7470 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
7471 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
7472 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
7473 in ca.
7474 [Steve Henson]
7475
7476 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
7477 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
7478 1.OU="Unit name 1"
7479 2.OU="Unit name 2"
7480 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
7481 [Steve Henson]
7482
7483 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
7484 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
7485 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
7486 are otherwise ignored at present.
7487 [Steve Henson]
7488
7489 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
7490 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
7491 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
7492 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
7493 copied until the next read.
7494 [Steve Henson]
7495
7496 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
7497 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
7498 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
7499 [Steve Henson]
7500
7501 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
7502 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
7503 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
7504 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
7505 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
7506 associated functions.
7507 [Steve Henson]
7508
7509 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
7510 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
7511 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
7512 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
7513 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
7514 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
7515 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
7516 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
7517 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
7518 memory BIOs.
7519 [Steve Henson]
7520
7521 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
7522 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
7523 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
7524 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
7525 [Bodo Moeller]
7526
7527 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
7528 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
7529 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
7530 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
7531 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
7532 functionality.
7533 [Steve Henson]
7534
7535 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
7536 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
7537 under Win32.
7538 [Steve Henson]
7539
7540 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
7541 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
7542 extensions to be obtained and added.
7543 [Steve Henson]
7544
7545 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
7546 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
7547 [Bodo Moeller]
7548
7549 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
7550
7551 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
7552 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7553
7554 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
7555 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
7556
7557 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
7558 program.
7559 [Steve Henson]
7560
7561 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
7562 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
7563 DH parameters contain its length).
7564
7565 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
7566 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
7567 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
7568 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
7569 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
7570 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
7571 utter importance to use
7572 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7573 or
7574 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7575 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
7576 attacks may become possible!
7577 [Bodo Moeller]
7578
7579 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
7580 [Bodo Moeller]
7581
7582 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
7583 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
7584 [Steve Henson]
7585
7586 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
7587 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
7588 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
7589 or long name.
7590 [Steve Henson]
7591
7592 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
7593 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
7594 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
7595 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
7596 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
7597 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
7598 private key operations.
7599 [Steve Henson]
7600
7601 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
7602 [Andy Polyakov]
7603
7604 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
7605 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
7606 to
7607 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
7608 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
7609 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
7610 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
7611 the password callback is called.
7612 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
7613
7614 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
7615
7616 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
7617 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
7618 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
7619 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
7620 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
7621 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
7622 this will work.
7623
7624 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
7625 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
7626 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
7627 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
7628 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
7629 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
7630 [Bodo Moeller]
7631
7632 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
7633 [Andy Polyakov]
7634
7635 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
7636 delete an unused file.
7637 [Ulf Möller]
7638
7639 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
7640 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
7641 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
7642 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
7643 [Steve Henson]
7644
7645 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
7646 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
7647 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
7648 of an error.
7649 [Bodo Moeller]
7650
7651 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
7652 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
7653 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7654
7655 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
7656 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
7657 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
7658 comparison" warnings.
7659 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
7660 [Steve Henson]
7661
7662 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
7663 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
7664 derived keys are printed to stderr.
7665 [Steve Henson]
7666
7667 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
7668 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
7669
7670 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
7671 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
7672
7673 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
7674 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
7675 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
7676
7677 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
7678 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
7679 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
7680 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
7681 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
7682 this bug.
7683 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
7684
7685 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
7686 The interface is as follows:
7687 Applications can use
7688 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
7689 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
7690 "off" is now the default.
7691 The library internally uses
7692 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
7693 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
7694 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
7695
7696 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
7697 even the default) are now avoided.
7698
7699 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
7700 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
7701 than just having a counter.
7702
7703 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
7704
7705 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
7706 extensions.
7707 [Bodo Moeller]
7708
7709 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
7710 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
7711 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
7712 Initial "mode" flags are:
7713
7714 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
7715 a single record has been written.
7716 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
7717 retries use the same buffer location.
7718 (But all of the contents must be
7719 copied!)
7720 [Bodo Moeller]
7721
7722 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
7723 worked.
7724
7725 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
7726 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
7727
7728 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
7729 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
7730 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
7731 [Steve Henson]
7732
7733 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
7734 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
7735 test programs.
7736 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
7737
7738 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
7739 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
7740 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
7741 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
7742 point to the end.
7743 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
7744 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
7745
7746 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
7747 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
7748 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
7749 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
7750 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
7751 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
7752 [Steve Henson]
7753
7754 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
7755 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
7756 necessary function names.
7757 [Steve Henson]
7758
7759 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
7760 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
7761 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
7762 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
7763 [Bodo Moeller]
7764
7765 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
7766 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
7767 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
7768 [Steve Henson]
7769
7770 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
7771 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
7772 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
7773 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
7774 such programs?)
7775 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
7776 need locks.
7777 [Bodo Moeller]
7778
7779 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
7780 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
7781 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
7782 [Bodo Moeller]
7783
7784 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
7785 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
7786 appropriate.
7787 [Bodo Moeller]
7788
7789 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
7790 for the encoded length.
7791 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
7792
7793 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
7794 [Steve Henson]
7795
7796 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
7797 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
7798 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
7799 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
7800 [Steve Henson]
7801
7802 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
7803 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
7804 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7805
7806 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
7807 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
7808 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
7809 unusual formatting.
7810 [Steve Henson]
7811
7812 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
7813 to use the new extension code.
7814 [Steve Henson]
7815
7816 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
7817 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
7818 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
7819 constant.
7820 [Steve Henson]
7821
7822 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
7823 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
7824 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
7825 [Bodo Moeller]
7826
7827 #if 0
7828 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
7829 [Ben Laurie]
7830 #else
7831 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
7832 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
7833 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
7834 #endif
7835
7836 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
7837 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
7838 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
7839 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
7840 [Ben Laurie]
7841
7842 *) DES library cleanups.
7843 [Ulf Möller]
7844
7845 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
7846 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
7847 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
7848 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
7849 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
7850 of v2.0.
7851 [Steve Henson]
7852
7853 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
7854 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
7855 [Bodo Moeller]
7856
7857 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
7858 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
7859 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
7860 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
7861 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
7862 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
7863 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
7864 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
7865 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
7866 [Steve Henson]
7867
7868 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
7869 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
7870 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
7871 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
7872 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
7873 value doesn't matter.
7874 [Steve Henson]
7875
7876 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
7877 support mutable.
7878 [Ben Laurie]
7879
7880 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
7881 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
7882 "linux-sparc" configuration.
7883 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
7884
7885 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
7886 [Ulf Möller]
7887
7888 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
7889 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
7890 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7891
7892 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
7893 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7894
7895 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
7896 [Ben Laurie]
7897
7898 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
7899 [Ben Laurie]
7900
7901 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
7902 [Ben Laurie]
7903
7904 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
7905 [Bodo Moeller]
7906
7907
7908 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
7909
7910 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
7911
7912 *) Updated some demos.
7913 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
7914
7915 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
7916 [Wu Zhigang]
7917
7918 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
7919 [Steve Henson]
7920
7921 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
7922 [Steve Henson]
7923
7924 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
7925 instead of using a fixed path.
7926 [Bodo Moeller]
7927
7928 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
7929 [Andy Polyakov]
7930
7931 *) Improvements for VMS support.
7932 [Richard Levitte]
7933
7934
7935 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
7936
7937 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
7938 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
7939 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7940
7941 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
7942 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
7943 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
7944 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
7945 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
7946 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
7947 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
7948 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
7949 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
7950 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
7951 [Steve Henson]
7952
7953 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
7954 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
7955 [Steve Henson]
7956
7957 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
7958 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
7959 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
7960 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
7961 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
7962
7963 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
7964 [Bodo Moeller]
7965
7966 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
7967 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
7968 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
7969 [Steve Henson]
7970
7971 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
7972 [Ben Laurie]
7973
7974 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
7975 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
7976 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
7977 key elements as negative integers.
7978 [Steve Henson]
7979
7980 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
7981 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7982
7983 *) VMS support.
7984 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
7985
7986 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
7987 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
7988 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
7989 [Steve Henson]
7990
7991 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
7992 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
7993 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
7994 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
7995 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
7996 [Bodo Moeller]
7997
7998 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
7999 [Ulf Möller]
8000
8001 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
8002 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
8003 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
8004 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8005
8006 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
8007 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
8008 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
8009
8010 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
8011 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
8012 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
8013 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
8014 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
8015 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
8016 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
8017 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
8018 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
8019
8020 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
8021 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
8022 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
8023 does not influence s as it used to.
8024
8025 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
8026 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
8027 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
8028 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
8029 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
8030 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
8031 [Bodo Moeller]
8032
8033 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
8034 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
8035 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
8036 key type.
8037 [Steve Henson]
8038
8039 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
8040 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
8041 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
8042 and 'x509').
8043 [Steve Henson]
8044
8045 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
8046 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
8047 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
8048 extension option.
8049 [Steve Henson]
8050
8051 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
8052 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
8053 [Ben Laurie]
8054
8055 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
8056 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8057
8058 *) Support Mingw32.
8059 [Ulf Möller]
8060
8061 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
8062 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8063
8064 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
8065 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8066
8067 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
8068 [Ulf Möller]
8069
8070 *) Update HPUX configuration.
8071 [Anonymous]
8072
8073 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
8074 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8075
8076 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
8077 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
8078 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
8079 DER-encoded.)
8080 [Bodo Moeller]
8081
8082 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
8083 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
8084 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
8085 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
8086 now it really counts the depth.
8087 [Bodo Moeller]
8088
8089 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
8090 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
8091 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
8092 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
8093 didn't match the private key).
8094
8095 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
8096 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
8097 connection using the SSL_CTX).
8098 [Bodo Moeller]
8099
8100 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
8101 [Ulf Möller]
8102
8103 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
8104 David Harris.
8105 [Bodo Moeller]
8106
8107 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
8108 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
8109 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
8110 [Bodo Moeller]
8111
8112 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
8113 [Bodo Moeller]
8114
8115 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
8116 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
8117 such as /usr/local/bin.
8118 [Bodo Moeller]
8119
8120 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
8121 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
8122
8123 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
8124 [Ulf Möller]
8125
8126 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
8127 extension adding in x509 utility.
8128 [Steve Henson]
8129
8130 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
8131 [Ulf Möller]
8132
8133 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
8134 prototypes.
8135 [Steve Henson]
8136
8137 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
8138 [Ulf Möller]
8139
8140 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
8141 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
8142 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
8143 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
8144 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
8145 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
8146 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
8147 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
8148 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
8149 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
8150 [Steve Henson]
8151
8152 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
8153 [Bodo Moeller]
8154
8155 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
8156 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
8157 [Bodo Moeller]
8158
8159 *) Fix some race conditions.
8160 [Bodo Moeller]
8161
8162 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
8163 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
8164 [Steve Henson]
8165
8166 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
8167 [Ulf Möller]
8168
8169 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
8170 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
8171 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
8172 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
8173
8174 *) Fix lots of warnings.
8175 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8176
8177 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
8178 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
8179 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8180
8181 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
8182 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8183
8184 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
8185 [Ulf Möller]
8186
8187 *) Fix typos in error codes.
8188 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
8189
8190 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
8191 [Ulf Möller]
8192
8193 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
8194 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8195
8196 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
8197 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
8198 [Steve Henson]
8199
8200 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
8201 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
8202 [Ben Laurie]
8203
8204 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
8205 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
8206 [Steve Henson]
8207
8208 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
8209 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
8210 [Steve Henson]
8211
8212 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
8213 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
8214 [Steve Henson]
8215
8216 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
8217 support typesafe stack.
8218 [Steve Henson]
8219
8220 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
8221 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
8222
8223 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
8224 old X509V3 handling code.
8225 [Steve Henson]
8226
8227 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
8228 [Ulf Möller]
8229
8230 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
8231 [Bodo Moeller]
8232
8233 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
8234 [Ben Laurie]
8235
8236 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
8237 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
8238
8239 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
8240 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
8241 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
8242 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
8243 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
8244 [Ben Laurie]
8245
8246 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
8247 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
8248 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
8249 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
8250 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
8251
8252 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
8253 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
8254 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
8255 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8256
8257 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
8258 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
8259 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
8260 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8261
8262 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
8263 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
8264 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
8265 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
8266 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
8267 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
8268 [Bodo Moeller]
8269
8270 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
8271 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
8272 [Bodo Moeller]
8273
8274 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
8275 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
8276 [Ulf Möller]
8277
8278 *) Tweaks to Configure
8279 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
8280
8281 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
8282 yet...
8283 [Steve Henson]
8284
8285 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
8286 [Ulf Möller]
8287
8288 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
8289 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
8290 [Ulf Möller]
8291
8292 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
8293 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
8294 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
8295 [Bodo Moeller]
8296
8297 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
8298 [Bodo Moeller]
8299
8300 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
8301 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
8302 [Steve Henson]
8303
8304 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
8305 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
8306 to library startup routines.
8307 [Steve Henson]
8308
8309 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
8310 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
8311 codes along the way.
8312 [Steve Henson]
8313
8314 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
8315 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
8316 objects to objects.h
8317 [Steve Henson]
8318
8319 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
8320 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
8321 [Steve Henson]
8322
8323 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
8324 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
8325
8326 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
8327 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
8328 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
8329
8330 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
8331 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8332 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8333
8334 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
8335 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
8336 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
8337
8338
8339 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
8340
8341 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
8342 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
8343 [Ben Laurie]
8344
8345 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
8346 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
8347 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
8348 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
8349 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
8350
8351 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
8352 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
8353 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
8354 document.
8355 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8356
8357 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
8358 Malloc, Free.
8359 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
8360
8361 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
8362 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8363
8364 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
8365 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
8366 if someone would make that last step automatic.
8367 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
8368
8369 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
8370 [Ben Laurie]
8371
8372 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
8373 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
8374 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
8375 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
8376 [Steve Henson]
8377
8378 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
8379 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
8380 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
8381 [Steve Henson]
8382
8383 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
8384 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
8385 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
8386 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
8387 installed as `perl').
8388 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8389
8390 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
8391 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8392
8393 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
8394 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
8395 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
8396 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
8397 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
8398 [Steve Henson]
8399
8400 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
8401 [Ben Laurie]
8402
8403 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
8404 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
8405 is horrible: I feel ill....
8406 [Steve Henson]
8407
8408 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
8409 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
8410 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
8411 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
8412 [Steve Henson]
8413
8414 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
8415 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8416
8417 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
8418 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
8419 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
8420 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8421
8422 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
8423 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
8424 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
8425 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
8426 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
8427 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
8428 openssl_bio.xs.
8429 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8430
8431 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
8432 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8433
8434 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
8435 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
8436
8437 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
8438 [Ben Laurie]
8439
8440 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
8441 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
8442 in CRLs.
8443 [Steve Henson]
8444
8445 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
8446 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
8447 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
8448 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
8449 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
8450 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
8451 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
8452 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
8453 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
8454 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
8455 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8456
8457 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
8458 [Ben Laurie]
8459
8460 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
8461 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
8462 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
8463 for linking it into DSOs.
8464 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8465
8466 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
8467 Fixed.
8468 [Ben Laurie]
8469
8470 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
8471 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
8472 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
8473 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
8474 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
8475 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8476
8477 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
8478 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
8479 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
8480 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
8481 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
8482 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
8483 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8484
8485 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
8486 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
8487 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
8488 encryption.
8489 [Ben Laurie]
8490
8491 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
8492 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
8493 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
8494 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
8495 [Steve Henson]
8496
8497 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
8498 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
8499 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
8500 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
8501 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
8502 field as blank.
8503 [Steve Henson]
8504
8505 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
8506 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
8507 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
8508 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
8509 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8510
8511 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
8512 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
8513 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8514
8515 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
8516 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8517
8518 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
8519 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
8520 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
8521 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
8522 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
8523 [Steve Henson]
8524
8525 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
8526 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
8527 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
8528 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
8529 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
8530 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
8531 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
8532 [Ben Laurie]
8533
8534 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
8535 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
8536 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
8537 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
8538 [Ben Laurie]
8539
8540 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
8541 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
8542
8543 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
8544 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
8545 [Steve Henson]
8546
8547 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
8548 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
8549 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
8550 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
8551 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
8552 (e.g. s_server).
8553 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
8554 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
8555 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
8556 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
8557 no way to reconfigure them.
8558 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
8559 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
8560 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
8561 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
8562 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
8563 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8564
8565 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
8566 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
8567 recognized by the users.
8568 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8569
8570 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
8571 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
8572 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
8573 already masked variable.
8574 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8575
8576 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
8577 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8578
8579 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
8580 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
8581 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
8582 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8583
8584 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
8585 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
8586 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8587
8588 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
8589 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
8590 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
8591 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
8592 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
8593 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
8594 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
8595 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
8596 now, too.
8597 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8598
8599 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
8600 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
8601 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8602
8603 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
8604 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
8605 config file.
8606 [Steve Henson]
8607
8608 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
8609 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8610
8611 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
8612 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
8613 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
8614 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
8615 [Ben Laurie]
8616
8617 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
8618 [Steve Henson]
8619
8620 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
8621 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8622
8623 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
8624 [Ben Laurie]
8625
8626 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
8627 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
8628 [Steve Henson]
8629
8630 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
8631 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
8632 [Steve Henson]
8633
8634 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
8635 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
8636 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
8637 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
8638 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
8639 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
8640 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
8641 Ben Laurie]
8642
8643 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
8644 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8645
8646 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
8647 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
8648 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
8649 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
8650 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8651
8652 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
8653 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
8654 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
8655 [Steve Henson]
8656
8657 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
8658 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
8659 an example.
8660 [Steve Henson]
8661
8662 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
8663 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
8664 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8665
8666 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
8667 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
8668 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
8669 build instructions.
8670 [Steve Henson]
8671
8672 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
8673 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
8674 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
8675 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
8676 [Steve Henson]
8677
8678 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
8679 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
8680 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
8681 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
8682 [Ben Laurie]
8683
8684 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
8685 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
8686 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
8687 so it wasn't spotted.
8688 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
8689
8690 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
8691 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
8692 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
8693 vectors if you have them.
8694 [Ben Laurie]
8695
8696 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
8697 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
8698 [Ben Laurie]
8699
8700 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
8701 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
8702 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
8703 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
8704 If you do a:
8705 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
8706 it will update them.
8707 [Steve Henson]
8708
8709 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
8710 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
8711 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
8712 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
8713 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
8714 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
8715 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
8716 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8717
8718 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
8719 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
8720 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
8721 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
8722 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
8723 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
8724 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
8725 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
8726 the crypto/md/ stuff).
8727 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8728
8729 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
8730 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
8731 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
8732 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
8733 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
8734 [Steve Henson]
8735
8736 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
8737 INTEGER code.
8738 [Steve Henson]
8739
8740 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
8741 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8742
8743 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
8744 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8745
8746 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
8747 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
8748 [Ben Laurie]
8749
8750 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
8751 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
8752
8753 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
8754 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
8755
8756 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
8757 [Steve Henson]
8758
8759 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
8760 few typos.
8761 [Steve Henson]
8762
8763 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
8764 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
8765 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
8766 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8767
8768 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8769 [Steve Henson]
8770
8771 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8772 [Steve Henson]
8773
8774 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
8775 [Steve Henson]
8776
8777 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
8778 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
8779 [Steve Henson]
8780
8781 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
8782 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
8783 CA extensions.
8784 [Steve Henson]
8785
8786 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
8787 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
8788 [Steve Henson]
8789
8790 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
8791 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
8792 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
8793 [Steve Henson]
8794
8795 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
8796 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
8797 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
8798 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
8799 properly to be processed.
8800 [Steve Henson]
8801
8802 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
8803 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
8804 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
8805 [Ben Laurie]
8806
8807 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
8808 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
8809
8810 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
8811 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
8812 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
8813 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
8814 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
8815 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
8816 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
8817 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
8818 or delete all the .err files.
8819 [Steve Henson]
8820
8821 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
8822 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
8823 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
8824 to regenerate it if needed.
8825 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
8826 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
8827
8828 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
8829 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8830
8831 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
8832 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
8833 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
8834 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
8835 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
8836 [Steve Henson]
8837
8838 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
8839 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8840
8841 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
8842 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8843
8844 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
8845 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
8846 error, but didn't set one).
8847 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8848
8849 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
8850 [Ben Laurie]
8851
8852 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
8853 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
8854 [Steve Henson]
8855
8856 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
8857 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
8858
8859 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
8860 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
8861 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
8862 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
8863 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
8864 OID is not part of the table.
8865 [Steve Henson]
8866
8867 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
8868 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
8869 [Ben Laurie]
8870
8871 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
8872 [Ben Laurie]
8873
8874 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
8875 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
8876 was "1234").
8877 [Steve Henson]
8878
8879 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
8880 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
8881
8882 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
8883 NULL pointers.
8884 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8885
8886 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
8887 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8888
8889 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
8890 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8891
8892 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
8893 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8894
8895 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
8896 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
8897 [Ben Laurie]
8898
8899 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
8900 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
8901 [Steve Henson]
8902
8903 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
8904 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8905
8906 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
8907 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8908
8909 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
8910 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8911
8912 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
8913 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8914
8915 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
8916 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
8917 unused in the certificate verification process.
8918 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8919
8920 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
8921 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
8922 [Steve Henson]
8923
8924 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
8925 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
8926 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
8927
8928 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
8929 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
8930 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
8931 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
8932 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
8933
8934 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
8935 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
8936 [Steve Henson]
8937
8938 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
8939 [Steve Henson]
8940
8941 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
8942 [Paul Sutton]
8943
8944 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
8945 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
8946
8947 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
8948 [Ben Laurie]
8949
8950 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
8951 [Ben Laurie]
8952
8953 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
8954 [Ben Laurie]
8955
8956 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
8957 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
8958 other error libraries.
8959 [Steve Henson]
8960
8961 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
8962 [Steve Henson]
8963
8964 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
8965 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
8966 be read in.
8967 [Steve Henson]
8968
8969 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
8970 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
8971 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
8972 the new set of documenation files.
8973 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8974
8975 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
8976 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
8977 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
8978 number of arguments.
8979 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
8980
8981 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
8982 [Ben Laurie]
8983
8984 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
8985 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
8986 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8987
8988 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
8989 [Ben Laurie]
8990
8991 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
8992 nextstep
8993 ncr-scde
8994 unixware-2.0
8995 unixware-2.0-pentium
8996 sco5-cc.
8997 [Ben Laurie]
8998
8999 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
9000 before they are needed.
9001 [Ben Laurie]
9002
9003 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
9004 [Ben Laurie]
9005
9006
9007 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
9008
9009 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
9010 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
9011 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9012
9013 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
9014 [Paul Sutton]
9015
9016 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
9017 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
9018 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9019
9020 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
9021 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
9022 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
9023
9024 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
9025 when "ssleay" is still not found.
9026 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9027
9028 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
9029 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
9030
9031 *) Updated the README file.
9032 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9033
9034 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
9035 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
9036 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9037
9038 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
9039 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
9040 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9041
9042 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
9043 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
9044 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
9045 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
9046 o removed obsolete TODO file
9047 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
9048 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9049
9050 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
9051 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
9052 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
9053 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
9054 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
9055 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
9056 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9057
9058 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
9059 [Mark J. Cox]
9060
9061 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
9062 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
9063 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
9064 summer 1998.
9065 [The OpenSSL Project]
9066
9067
9068 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
9069
9070 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
9071 [Eric A. Young]
9072
9073 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
9074 [Eric A. Young]
9075
9076 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
9077 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
9078 [Eric A. Young]
9079
9080 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
9081 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
9082 available).
9083 [Eric A. Young]
9084
9085 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
9086 binary structures
9087 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
9088
9089 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
9090 [Eric A. Young]
9091
9092 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
9093 [Eric A. Young]
9094
9095 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
9096 [Eric A. Young]
9097
9098 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
9099 [Eric A. Young]
9100
9101 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
9102 [Eric A. Young]
9103
9104 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
9105 [Eric A. Young]
9106
9107 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
9108 [Eric A. Young]
9109
9110 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
9111 [Eric A. Young]
9112
9113 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
9114 [Eric A. Young]
9115
9116 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
9117 [Eric A. Young]
9118
9119 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
9120 [Eric A. Young]
9121
9122 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
9123 [Eric A. Young]
9124
9125 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
9126 [Eric A. Young]
9127
9128 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
9129 [Eric A. Young]
9130
9131 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
9132 [Eric A. Young]
9133
9134 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
9135 [Eric A. Young]
9136
9137 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
9138 [Eric A. Young]
9139
9140 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
9141 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
9142 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
9143 [Eric A. Young]
9144
9145 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
9146 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
9147 [Eric A. Young]
9148
9149 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
